ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
PART I
------
Item 1. Business
- ----------------
ILM I Lease Corporation (the "Company") was formed in 1994 by ILM Senior
Living, Inc. ("ILM I"), formerly PaineWebber Independent Living Mortgage Fund,
Inc., a publicly-held, non-traded Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT"), for the
purpose of operating eight rental housing projects that provide independent
living and assisted living services for senior citizens (the "Senior Housing
Facilities") under the terms of a master lease agreement. ILM I contributed
$700,000 to the Company in return for all of the issued and outstanding shares
of the Company's common stock. ILM I had originally made mortgage loans secured
by the Senior Housing Facilities to Angeles Housing Concepts, Inc. ("AHC")
between June 1989 and July 1992. In March 1993, AHC defaulted under the terms of
such mortgage loans and in connection with the settlement of such default, title
to the Senior Housing Facilities was transferred, effective April 1, 1994, to
certain majority-owned, indirect subsidiaries of ILM I, subject to the mortgage
loans. Subsequently, the indirect subsidiaries of ILM I were merged into ILM
Holding, Inc. ("ILM Holding"). As part of the fiscal 1994 settlement agreement
with AHC, AHC was retained as the property manager for all of the Senior Housing
Facilities pursuant to the terms of a management agreement which was assigned to
the Company as of September 1, 1995. As discussed further in Item 7, the
agreement with AHC was terminated in July 1996.
ILM I has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended ("the Code"), for each taxable year of operations. In order to
maintain its status as a REIT, 75% of ILM I's annual gross income must be
Qualified Rental Income as defined by the Code. The rent paid by the residents
of the Senior Housing Facilities likely would not be deemed to be Qualified
Rental Income because of the extent of services provided to residents.
Consequently, the operation of the Senior Housing Facilities by ILM I or its
subsidiaries over an extended period of time could adversely affect ILM I's
status as a REIT. Therefore, ILM I formed the Company to operate the Senior
Housing Facilities, and by means of a distribution, transferred the ownership of
the common stock of the Company to the holders of ILM I common stock on
September 1, 1995. Because the Company, which is taxed as a regular C
corporation, is no longer a subsidiary of ILM I, it can receive service-related
income without endangering the REIT status of ILM I.
On September 1, 1995, after ILM I received the required regulatory
approval, it distributed all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the
Company to the holders of record of ILM I's common stock. One share of common
stock of the Company was issued for each full share of ILM I's common stock
held. No fractional shares were issued. Holders of ILM I's common stock were not
required to pay any cash or other consideration or to exchange their common
stock of ILM I for the common stock of the Company. Prior to the distribution of
the Company's stock, ILM I's shareholders received an information statement
fully describing the Company and the distribution of its capital stock.
The Company's sole business is the operation of the Senior Housing
Facilities. The Company leases the Senior Housing Facilities from ILM Holding, a
majority-owned and consolidated affiliate of ILM I, which currently holds title
to the Senior Housing Facilities, pursuant to a master lease which commenced on
September 1, 1995 and expires on December 31, 1999; provided, however, that such
master lease may be terminated earlier by ILM Holding, in connection with a sale
of the Senior Housing Facilities to a non-affiliated third party, upon 30 days
notice to the Company.
In July 1996, the Company terminated the property management agreement with
AHC and entered into a property management agreement (the "Management
Agreement") with Capital Senior Management 2, Inc. ("Capital") to handle the
day-to-day operations of the Senior Housing Facilities. Since November 1996,
Lawrence A. Cohen, who, until July 28, 1998, served as a Director of the Company
and President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, has also served as
Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of Capital Senior Living Corporation,
an affiliate of Capital. As a result, through July 28, 1998, the management
agreement with Capital was considered a related party transaction.

Item 1. Business (continued)
- ----------------------------
The master lease agreement, which commenced on September 1, 1995, is
between ILM Holding, as owner of the properties and lessor, and the Company, as
lessee. The master lease is a "triple-net" lease whereby the lessee pays all
operating expenses, governmental taxes and assessments, utility charges and
insurance premiums, as well as the costs of all required maintenance, personal
property and non-structural repairs in connection with the operation of the
Senior Housing Facilities. ILM Holding, as the lessor, is responsible for all
major capital improvements and structural repairs to the Senior Housing
Facilities. During the initial term of the master lease, which expires on
December 31, 1999, the Company is obligated to pay annual base rent for the use
of all of the Facilities in the aggregate amount of $6,364,800 per year.
Beginning in January 1997 and for the remainder of the lease term, the Company
is also obligated to pay variable rent for each Senior Housing Facility. Such
variable rent is payable quarterly and equals 40% of the excess, if any, of the
aggregate total revenues for the Senior Housing Facilities, on an annualized
basis, over $16,996,000. Variable rent expense related to fiscal years 1998 and
1997 was $894,000 and $315,000, respectively.
The Senior Housing Facilities which the Company has leased from ILM Holding
as of August 31, 1998 are described below:

(1) See Notes to the Financial Statements filed with this Annual Report for a
description of the agreements through which the Company has leased these
facilities.
(2) The Company operates the Villa Santa Barbara facility under a co-tenancy
arrangement with an affiliated company, ILM II Lease Corporation ("Lease
II"). The Company and Lease II have entered into a joint tenancy agreement
which governs the operation of the property and the apportionment of
revenues and expenses between the parties. Any amounts generated by the
operations of the Santa Barbara property are equitably apportioned between
the Company and Lease II (25% and 75%, respectively).
The Senior Housing Facilities are subject to competition from similar
properties in the vicinities in which they are located. The properties are
located in areas with significant senior citizen populations and, as a result
there are, and will likely continue to be, a variety of competing projects aimed
at attracting senior residents. Such
I-2
<PAGE>
ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Item 1. Business (continued)
- ----------------------------
projects will generally compete on the basis of rental rates, services,
amenities and location. The Company has no real estate investments located
outside the United States. The Company's sole business is the operation of the
Senior Housing Facilities. Therefore, presentation of information about industry
segments is not applicable.
Through June 18, 1997, and subject to the supervision of and pursuant to
the general policies set by the Company's Board of Directors, assistance in
managing the business of the Company was provided by PaineWebber Lease Advisor,
L.P. ("PaineWebber"). For discussion purposes, PaineWebber will refer to
PaineWebber Lease Advisor, L.P. and all affiliates of PaineWebber that provided
services to the Company in the past. PaineWebber resigned from this position
effective as of June 18, 1997. PaineWebber agreed to perform certain
administrative services for the Company and its affiliates through August 31,
1997. Through the date of its resignation, PaineWebber performed the day-to-day
operations of the Company and acted as the investment advisor and consultant for
the Company. PaineWebber provided cash management, accounting, tax preparation,
financial reporting, investor communications and relations as well as asset
management services to the Company. These services are now being provided to the
Company, subject to the supervision of the Company's Board of Directors, by
various companies and consultants including Fleet Bank, Ernst & Young LLP,
MAVRICC Management Systems, Inc. and Smith and Company. In addition, C. David
Carlson, who was a Vice President of ILM I until the date of PaineWebber's
resignation and a Vice President of PaineWebber through October 1997, where he
served as Portfolio Manager to the Company, now serves as a consultant to the
Company. The resignation of PaineWebber is discussed further below.
There are currently three Directors of the Company, none of whom are
affiliates of PaineWebber or the property management company. The Directors are
subject to removal by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of the Company's common stock.
The terms of transactions between the Company and PaineWebber and similar
disclosures with respect to relationships of other related parties which provide
services to the Company are set forth in Items 11 and 13 below to which
reference is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.
As discussed further in Item 7, on July 29, 1996, the Company terminated
the property management agreement with AHC and retained Capital to be the
property manager of the Senior Housing Facilities, and ILM I has guaranteed the
payment of all fees due to Capital under the terms of the Management Agreement.
Since November 1996, Lawrence A. Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998, served as a
Director of the Company and President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of
ILM I, has also served as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of Capital
Senior Living Corporation, an affiliate of Capital. As a result, through July
28, 1998, Capital was considered a related party (see Item 13). Capital earned
property management fees from the Company of $919,000 and $841,000 for the years
ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
At a meeting of the Boards of Directors of ILM I and an affiliated entity,
ILM II Senior Living, Inc., ("ILM II"), formerly PaineWebber Independent Living
Mortgage, Inc., on January 10, 1997, PaineWebber recommended the immediate sale
of the Senior Housing Facilities operated by the Company and held by ILM I as
well as the Senior Housing Facilities held by ILM II, by means of a controlled
auction to be conducted by PaineWebber, at no additional compensation, with
PaineWebber offering to purchase the Senior Housing Facilities held by ILM I and
ILM II for $127 million, thereby guaranteeing the shareholders a "floor" price.
The Senior Housing Facilities operated by the Company under its master lease
with ILM Holding would represent approximately $75 million of this amount. After
taxes and closing costs, net proceeds to ILM I would equal approximately $71
million or approximately $9.41 per share of ILM I common stock. PaineWebber also
stated that if it purchased the properties at the specified price and were then
able to resell the properties at a higher price, PaineWebber would pay any
"excess profits" to the shareholders. To assist the Company and ILM I in
evaluating PaineWebber's proposal, a disinterested, independent investment
banking firm with expertise in healthcare REITs and independent/assisted living
financings was engaged by the Company, ILM I and ILM II and their affiliates.
Following a comprehensive analysis, the investment banking firm recommended that
PaineWebber's proposal should be declined and that
I-3
<PAGE>
ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Item 1. Business (continued)
- ----------------------------
instead investigation of expansion and restructuring alternatives should be
pursued. After analyzing PaineWebber's proposal and the recommendations and
other information provided by the independent investment banking firm, the
Boards of ILM I and ILM II voted unanimously to decline PaineWebber's proposal
and to explore the alternatives recommended by the independent investment
banking firm. The Boards declined to seek an immediate sale of the properties
because, in the Board's view, the liquidation price would not reflect the "going
concern" values of ILM I and ILM II and, therefore, would not maximize
shareholder value. In addition, the Boards did not consider it advisable to
liquidate ILM I and ILM II on the suggested terms three years prior to their
scheduled termination date.
PaineWebber indicated to the ILM I and ILM II Boards in its January 10,
1997 proposal that it would not wish to continue to serve as advisor to ILM I,
ILM II and their affiliates if they declined to accept PaineWebber's proposal.
The Company, Lease II, ILM I, and ILM II accepted the resignation of
PaineWebber, effective June 18, 1997. PaineWebber continued to provide certain
administrative services to the Company, Lease II, ILM I, and ILM II through
August 31, 1997, pursuant to the terms of a transition services agreement. The
Company and its affiliates also accepted, effective as of June 18, 1997, the
resignations of those Officers and Directors who were employees of or otherwise
affiliated with PaineWebber.
The Company and ILM I are continuing to review various strategic
alternatives to maximize shareholder value and liquidity and have engaged
professional financial and legal advisors to formulate and present plans and
proposals for consideration by the Board. Although no definitive plans,
arrangements or understandings have been agreed to at this time, ILM I is
actively reviewing the feasibility of a variety of financial transactions and
proposals, including the reorganization of the ownership of the Senior Housing
Facilities, business combinations with third parties and the sale of ILM I by
means of cash and or stock-for-stock merger. There can be no assurance that any
definitive transaction will be formulated, agreed to or consummated. In
addition, because the master lease is due to terminate on December 31, 1999, but
could be terminated earlier by ILM Holding if the Senior Housing Facilities are
sold by ILM Holding, the Company's operations would not be expected to continue
beyond the date of any such transaction.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
- -------------------------
On July 29, 1996, Lease I and ILM Holding (collectively for this Item 3,
the "Companies") terminated a property management agreement with AHC, which
covered the eight Senior Housing Facilities leased by Lease I from ILM Holding
and engaged Capital as property manager. The management agreement with AHC was
terminated for cause pursuant to Sections 1.05(a)(i), (iii) and (iv) of the
agreement. Simultaneously with the termination of the management agreement, the
Companies, together with certain affiliated entities, filed suit against AHC in
the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia for breach
of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and fraud. The Companies alleged, among
other things, that AHC willfully performed actions specifically in violation of
the management agreement and that such actions caused damages to the Companies.
Due to the termination of the agreement for cause, no termination fee was
paid to AHC. Subsequent to the termination of the management agreement, AHC
filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in its
domestic state of California. The filing was challenged by the Companies, and
the Bankruptcy Court dismissed AHC's case effective October 15, 1996. In
November 1996, AHC filed with the Virginia District Court an Answer in response
to the litigation initiated by the Companies and a counterclaim against ILM
Holding. The counterclaim alleged that the management agreement was wrongfully
terminated for cause and requested damages which included the payment of the
termination fee in the amount of $1,250,000, payment of management fees pursuant
to the contract from August 1, 1996 through October 15, 1996, which is the
earliest date that the agreement could have been terminated without cause, and
recovery of attorney's fees and expenses.
The aggregate amount of damages against all parties as requested in AHC's
counterclaim exceeded $2,000,000. ILM I had guaranteed the payment of a
termination fee at issue in these proceedings to the extent that any termination
fee was deemed payable by the court and in the event that the Company failed to
perform pursuant to its obligations under the management agreement. On June 13,
1997 and July 8, 1997, the court issued orders to enter judgment against ILM I
and ILM II in the amount of $1,000,000 (the "Orders"). The Orders do not contain
any findings of fact or conclusions of law. On July 10, 1997, the Company, ILM
I, ILM II and Lease II filed a notice of appeal to the United States Court of
Appeals for the Fourth Circuit from the Orders.
On February 4, 1997, AHC filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the
State of California against Capital, the new property manager; Lawrence A.
Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998 was a Director of the Company and President,
Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, and others alleging that the
defendants intentionally interfered with AHC's property management agreement
(the "California litigation"). The complaint sought damages of at least
$2,000,000. On March 4, 1997, the defendants removed the case to Federal
District Court in the Central District of California. At a Board meeting on
February 26, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors concluded that since all of
Mr. Cohen's actions relating to the California litigation were taken either on
behalf of the Company under the direction of the Board or as a PaineWebber
employee, the Company or its affiliates should indemnify Mr. Cohen with respect
to any expenses arising from the California litigation, subject to any insurance
recoveries for those expenses. Legal fees paid by the Company and Lease II on
behalf of Mr. Cohen totaled $227,000 as of August 31, 1998. The Company's Board
also concluded that, subject to certain conditions, the Company or its
affiliates should advance up to $20,000 to pay reasonable legal fees and
expenses incurred by Capital in the California litigation. Subsequently, the
Boards of Directors of the Company and Lease II voted to increase the maximum
amount of the advance to Capital to $100,000. By the end of November 1997,
Capital had incurred $100,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. On
February 2, 1998, the amount to be advanced to Capital was increased to include
75% of the California litigation legal fees and costs incurred by Capital for
December 1997 and January 1998, plus 75% of such legal fees and costs incurred
by Capital thereafter, not to exceed $500,000. By August 31, 1998 Capital had
incurred $683,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. At August 31,
1998, the amount of legal fees either advanced to Capital or accrued on the
financial statements of Lease I and Lease II for Capital's California litigation
costs totaled approximately $519,000, although the final amount to be reimbursed
to Capital has not yet been determined.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings (continued)
- -------------------------------------
On August 18, 1998, the Company and its affiliates along with Capital and
its affiliates entered into a settlement agreement with AHC. The Company and
Lease II agreed to pay $1,625,000 and Capital and its affiliates agreed to pay
$625,000 to AHC in settlement of all claims including those related to the
Virginia litigation and the California litigation. The Company and its
affiliates also entered into an agreement with Capital and its affiliates to
mutually release each other from all claims that any such parties may have
against each other, other than any claims under the property management
agreements. The Company's Board of Directors believes that settling the AHC
litigation is a prudent course of action because the settlement amount
represents a small percentage of the increases in cash flow and value achieved
for the Company and its affiliates over the past two years.
Due to the Order, $1,000,000 had been recorded as a liability by the
Company and Lease II at the end of fiscal year 1997. At August 31, 1997, a
provision of $600,000 for the liability which might have resulted to the Company
had been recorded as "termination for payable" in the financial statements of
the Company, with the remaining $400,000 provision recorded by Lease II. Due to
the final settlement agreement, the 1997 provisions were increased by $625,000
at August 31, 1998. An additional provision of $375,000 was recorded in the
financial statements of the Company with the remaining $250,000 recorded in the
financial statements of Lease II. On September 4, 1998, subsequent to the end of
the fiscal year, the full settlement amounts were paid to AHC and its
affiliates.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
- -----------------------------------------------------------
At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on July 28, 1998, Julien G.
Redele, Jeffry R. Dwyer, and J. William Sharman, Jr., were elected to serve as
Directors of the Company until the 1999 Annual Meeting, and the designation of
Ernst & Young LLP as auditors for the fiscal year ending August 31, 1998, was
ratified. Jeffry R. Dwyer has served as a Director since September 13, 1994, the
date of incorporation of the Company. J. William Sharman, Jr., has served as a
Director of the Company since September 18, 1997.

Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Shares and Related Stockholder Matters
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior to September 1, 1995, the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of
ILM I. Pursuant to a reorganization and distribution agreement, ILM I
capitalized the Company with $700,000, an amount estimated to provide the
Company with necessary working capital. On September 1, 1995, MAVRICC Management
Systems, Inc., as the distribution agent, caused to be issued on the stock
records of the Company the distributed common stock of the Company, in
uncertificated form, to the holders of record of ILM I common stock at the close
of business on July 14, 1995. One share of the Company's common stock was
distributed for each outstanding share of ILM I common stock. No certificates or
scrip representing fractional shares of the Company's common stock were issued
to holders of ILM I common stock as part of the distribution. In lieu of
receiving fractional shares, each holder of ILM I common stock who would
otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of the Company's
common stock received a cash payment equivalent to $0.15 per share for such
fractional interest. At August 31, 1998, there were 5,103 record holders of the
Company's shares. The shares do not trade on an established exchange and the
only market that has developed is a secondary market. Although PaineWebber and
others may endeavor to assist Shareholders desiring to sell their shares by
attempting to match requests to sell shares with requests to purchase shares,
such transfers are not expected to be frequent.
The Company did not pay cash dividends in fiscal years 1998, 1997 and 1996.
The Company intends to review this policy during fiscal 1999, and may or may not
determine to pay cash dividends in the future. Payment of dividends, if any,
will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will depend
upon such factors as the Company's financial condition, earnings, anticipated
investments and other relevant factors.

ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company was formed in 1995 by ILM I, a publicly-held, non-traded
REIT, for the purpose of operating eight Senior Housing Facilities under the
terms of a master lease agreement. ILM I contributed $700,000 in return for all
of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. ILM I had
originally made mortgage loans secured by the Senior Housing Facilities to AHC
between June 1989 and July 1992. In March 1993, AHC defaulted under the terms of
such mortgage loans and in connection with the settlement of such default, title
to the Senior Housing Facilities was transferred, effective April 1, 1994, to
certain majority-owned, indirect subsidiaries of ILM I, subject to the mortgage
loans. Subsequently, these indirect subsidiaries were merged into ILM Holding,
which is also a majority-owned subsidiary of ILM I. As part of the fiscal 1994
settlement agreement with AHC, AHC was retained as the property manager for the
Senior Housing Facilities pursuant to the terms of an agreement which was
assigned to the Company as of September 1, 1995. As discussed further below, the
agreement with AHC was terminated in July 1996.
ILM I has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended ("the Code"), for each taxable year of operations. In order
to maintain its status as a REIT, 75% of ILM I's annual gross income must be
Qualified Rental Income as defined by the Code. The rent paid by the residents
of the Senior Housing Facilities likely would not be deemed to be Qualified
Rental Income because of the extent of services provided to residents.
Consequently, the operation of the Senior Housing Facilities by ILM I or its
subsidiaries over an extended period of time could adversely affect ILM I's
status as a REIT. Therefore, ILM I formed the Company to operate the Senior
Housing Facilities, and by means of a distribution, transferred the ownership of
the common stock of the Company to the holders of ILM I common stock. Because
the Company, which is taxed as a regular C corporation, is no longer a
subsidiary of ILM I, it can receive service-related income without endangering
the REIT status of ILM I. On September 1, 1995, after ILM I received the
required regulatory approval, it distributed all of the outstanding shares of
capital stock of the Company to the holders of record of ILM I's common stock.
One share of common stock of the Company was issued for each full share of ILM
I's common stock held. No fractional shares were issued. Holders of ILM I's
common stock were not required to pay any cash or other consideration or to
exchange their common stock of ILM I for the common stock of the Company. Prior
to the distribution of the Company's stock, ILM I's shareholders received an
information statement fully describing the Company and the distribution of its
capital stock.
The master lease agreement, which commenced on September 1, 1995, is
between ILM Holding, as owner of the properties and lessor, and the Company, as
lessee. The master lease is a "triple-net" lease whereby the Company, as the
lessee, pays all operating expenses, governmental taxes and assessments, utility
charges and insurance premiums, as well as the costs of all required
maintenance, personal property and non-structural repairs in connection with the
operation of the Senior Housing Facilities. ILM Holding, as the lessor, is
responsible for all major capital improvements and structural repairs to the
Senior Housing Facilities. If the Company and ILM Holding decide that any of the
Senior Housing Facilities should be expanded, the master lease agreement between
the Company and ILM Holding would be amended to include such expansion. During
the initial term of the master lease, which expires on December 31, 1999, the
Company is obligated to pay annual base rent for the use of all of the Senior
Housing Facilities in the aggregate amount of $6,364,800 each year. Beginning in
January 1997 and for the remainder of the lease term, the Company is also
obligated to pay variable rent for each Senior Housing Facility. Such variable
rent is payable quarterly and equals 40% of the excess, if any, of the aggregate
total revenues for the Senior Housing Facilities, on an annualized basis, over
$16,996,000. Variable rent expense related to the years ended August 31, 1998
and 1997, respectively, was $894,000 and $315,000.

ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations (continued)
- -------------------------
As noted above, the Company's master lease is scheduled to expire on
December 31, 1999. Accordingly, since the Company does not have any current
plans to operate or own any other facilities or engage in any other business
outside of its relationship with ILM I, there is no assurance that the Company's
operations will continue beyond December 1999. The master lease may be
terminated earlier, however, by ILM Holding upon 30 days notice to the Company
in connection with a sale to a non-affiliated third party of the Senior Housing
Facilities.
On July 29, 1996, the Company terminated the agreement with AHC covering
eight Senior Housing Facilities leased by the Company (see "Item 3, Legal
Proceedings") and retained Capital to be the manager of the Senior Housing
Facilities. Lawrence A. Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998 served as a Director
of the Company and President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, has
also served as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of Capital Senior
Living Corporation, an affiliate of Capital, since November 1996. As a result,
until July 28, 1998, Capital was considered a related party. Under the terms of
the management agreement, Capital earns a base management fee equal to 4% of the
gross operating revenues of the Senior Housing Facilities, as defined, as well
as an incentive management fee equal to 25% of the amount by which net cash flow
of the Senior Housing Facilities, as defined, exceeds a specified base amount.
Each August 31, beginning on August 31, 1997, the base amount is increased based
on the percentage increase in the consumer price index as well as 15% of
facility expansion costs. ILM I has guaranteed the payment of all fees due to
Capital under the terms of the management agreement.
On February 4, 1997, AHC filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the
State of California against Capital, the new property manager; Lawrence A.
Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998 was a Director of the Company and President,
Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, and others alleging that the
defendants intentionally interfered with AHC's property management agreement
(the "California litigation"). The complaint sought damages of at least
$2,000,000. On March 4, 1997, the defendants removed the case to Federal
District Court in the Central District of California. At a Board meeting on
February 26, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors concluded that since all of
Mr. Cohen's actions relating to the California litigation were taken either on
behalf of the Company under the direction of the Board or as a PaineWebber
employee, the Company or its affiliates should indemnify Mr. Cohen with respect
to any expenses arising from the California litigation, subject to any insurance
recoveries for those expenses. Legal fees paid by the Company and Lease II on
behalf of Mr. Cohen totaled $227,000 as of August 31, 1998. The Company's Board
also concluded that, subject to certain conditions, the Company or its
affiliates should advance up to $20,000 to pay reasonable legal fees and
expenses incurred by Capital in the California litigation. Subsequently, the
Boards of Directors of the Company and Lease II voted to increase the maximum
amount of the advance to Capital to $100,000. By the end of November 1997,
Capital had incurred $100,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. On
February 2, 1998, the amount to be advanced to Capital was increased to include
75% of the California litigation legal fees and costs incurred by Capital for
December 1997 and January 1998, plus 75% of such legal fees and costs incurred
by Capital thereafter, not to exceed $500,000.
By August 31, 1998 Capital had incurred $683,000 of legal expenses in the
California litigation. At August 31, 1998, the amount of legal fees either
advanced to Capital or accrued on the financial statements of Lease I and Lease
II for Capital's California litigation costs totaled approximately $519,000,
although the final amount to be reimbursed to Capital has not yet been
determined.
Occupancy levels for the eight properties which the Company leases from ILM
Holding averaged 96% for the year ended August 31, 1998. The Senior Housing
Facilities have generated sufficient net cash flow to cover the base master
lease payments at their current level of $6,364,800 per year since the inception
of the Company's operations. As noted above, the master lease also provides for
the payment of variable rent beginning in January 1997. The Senior Housing
Facilities are currently generating gross revenues which are in excess of the
specified threshold in the variable rent calculation, as discussed further
above. Accordingly, the Company had variable rental expense in fiscal years 1998
and 1997 in the amount of $894,000 and $315,000, respectively.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations (continued)
- -------------------------
At August 31, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$1,897,000. Such amounts will be used for the Company's working capital
requirements. As noted above, under the terms of the master lease, the Lessor is
responsible for any major capital improvements or structural repairs to the
Senior Housing Facilities. Consequently, the Company does not have any material
commitments for capital expenditures. Furthermore, the Company does not
currently anticipate the need to engage in any borrowing activities. As a
result, substantially all of the Company's cash flow will be generated from
operating activities. The Company did not pay cash dividends in fiscal years
1998, 1997 and 1996. The Company intends to review this policy during fiscal
1999, and may or may not determine to pay cash dividends in the future. Payment
of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of
Directors and will depend upon such factors as the Company's financial
condition, earnings, anticipated investments and other relevant factors. The
source of future liquidity is expected to be from operating cash flow from the
Senior Housing Facilities, net of the master lease payments to ILM Holding, and
interest income earned on invested cash reserves. Such sources of liquidity are
expected to be adequate to meet the Company's operating requirements on both a
short-term and long-term basis.
The Company relies upon PC-based systems and does not expect to incur
material costs to transition to Year 2000 compliant systems in its internal
operations. The Company does not expect this project to have a significant
effect on operations. The Company will continue to implement systems and all new
investments are expected to be with Year 2000 compliant software.
Results of Operations
1998 Compared to 1997
- ---------------------
Revenues. Total revenues were $19,294,000 for the year ended August 31,
1998 compared to $18,121,000 for the year ended August 31, 1997, representing an
increase of $1,173,000 or 6.5%. Rental and other income from the Company's
senior housing operations increased $1,183,000 primarily as a result of improved
occupancies and increases in rental rates at certain of the facilities located
in strong markets.
Expenses. Total expenses were $19,729,000 in fiscal 1998 compared to
$18,600,000 in fiscal 1997, representing an increase of $1,129,000 or 6.1%. This
increase was principally comprised of increases in master lease expense of
$579,000, dietary and food service salaries, wages and expenses of $135,000,
general and administrative expenses of $593,000, property management fees of
$78,000, and additional termination fee expense incurred in fiscal 1998 of
$375,000 (see "Item 3, Legal Proceedings"). In addition, total charges to
depreciation expense in 1998 include additional depreciation expense of $136,000
in recognition of changes in remaining useful life for certain assets purchased
in 1997 and prior to conform to the lease termination date, as such assets are
not subject to repurchase by ILM Holding. These increases were offset, in part,
by a decrease in administrative salaries, wages and expenses of $59,000,
marketing salaries, wages and expenses of $27,000, other property operating
expenses of $88,000 and advisory fees of $70,000. The increase in master lease
expense is the result of variable rents due under the Master Lease Agreement in
1998. General and administrative expense increased as a result of higher AHC
litigation expenses in 1998 coupled with the analysis of restructuring
alternatives performed by an independent investment banking firm. The increases
in other operating costs cited above were the result of higher operating levels
associated with improved occupancies.
Income tax expense. Income tax benefit decreased from $192,000 in fiscal
1997 to a benefit of $54,000 in fiscal 1998, after giving effect to the $120,000
valuation allowance in 1998 on the Company's deferred tax asset. The effective
income tax rate was 7% in fiscal 1998 and 40% in fiscal 1997. The 1997 deferred
tax provision reflects a reclassification of $240,000 of current tax expense in
1997, which was ultimately determined to be deductible in 1998.
Net income (loss). Primarily as a result of the factors discussed above,
net loss increased from a net loss of $287,000 in fiscal 1997 to a net loss of
$381,000 in fiscal 1998.

1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------
Revenues. Total revenues were $18,121,000 for the year ended August 31,
1997, compared to $17,285,000 for the year ended August 31, 1996, representing
an increase of $836,000, or 4.8%. Rental and other income from the Company's
senior housing operations increased $822,000, primarily as a result of improved
occupancies and increases in rental rates at certain of the facilities located
in strong markets.
Expenses. Total expenses were $18,600,000 in 1997 compared to $16,682,000
in 1996, representing an increase of $1,918,000 or ll.5%. This increase was
principally comprised of increases in master lease expense of $315,000, dietary
and food service salaries, wages and expenses of $262,000, administrative
salaries, wages and expenses of $171,000, general and administrative expenses of
$545,000 and other property operating expenses of $136,000, as well as the
$600,000 termination fee expense which was accrued in 1997 (see "Item 3, Legal
Proceedings"). These increases were offset, in part, by a decrease in property
management fees as a result of the July Master Lease Agreement for the first
time in 1997. General and administrative expense increased as a result of higher
AHC litigation expenses in 1997 coupled with the analysis of restructuring
alternatives performed by an independent investment banking firm. The increases
in other operating costs cited above were the result of higher operating levels
associated with improved occupancies and the implementation of a health
insurance program for property-level staff.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense decreased from $241,000 in 1996 to a
benefit of $192,000 in 1997 as a result of a net loss before taxes of $479,000
as the effective income tax rate was 40% in both years.
Net income. Primarily as a result of the factors discussed above, net
income decreased from $362,000 in 1996 to a net loss of $287,000 in 1997.
Inflation
- ---------
The Company completed its third full year of operations in fiscal 1998. The
effects of inflation and changes in prices on the Company's operating results to
date have not been significant.
Inflation in future periods is likely to cause increases in the Company's
expenses, which may be partially offset by increases in revenues from the tenant
leases at the Senior Housing Facilities. Rental revenues may tend to rise with
inflation since the rental rates on the tenant leases, which are short-term in
nature, can be adjusted to keep pace with inflation as market conditions allow.
As noted above, under the terms of the master lease agreement between the
Company and ILM Holding, the Company is obligated to pay variable rent, in
addition to the base rent owed, in an amount equal to 40% of the excess of total
revenues from the Senior Housing Facilities over a specified base amount.
Accordingly, to the extent that the total revenues are in excess of this
threshold, a portion of the increase in revenues would be payable to the Lessor.

Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lawrence A. Cohen served as Director of the Company from inception until
July 28, 1998. In November 1996, he also became Vice Chairman and Chief
Financial Officer of Capital Senior Living Corporation, an affiliate of Capital,
which was contracted by the Company in July 1996 to perform property management

(e) Except for the Feldman litigation as discussed below, none of the
current Directors and Officers were involved in legal proceedings which are
material to an evaluation of his or her ability or integrity as a Director or
Officer. On May 8, 1998 Andrew A. Feldman and Jeri Feldman, as Trustees for the
Andrew A. & Jeri Feldman Revocable Trust dated September 18, 1990 commenced a
purported class action on behalf of that trust and all other shareholders of ILM
I and ILM II (affiliates of the Company, as previously described) in the Supreme
Court of the State of New York, County of New York against ILM I, ILM II and
Lawrence A. Cohen, Jeffry R. Dwyer, Julien G. Redele, Carl J. Schramm and J.
William Sharman, Jr. as the Directors of both corporations. The class action
complaint alleges that the Directors engaged in wasteful and oppressive conduct
and breached fiduciary duties in preventing the sale or liquidation of the
assets of ILM I and ILM II, diverting certain of their assets and changing the
nature of ILM I and ILM II. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified
amount, punitive damages, the judicial dissolution of ILM I and ILM II, an order
requiring the Directors to take all steps to maximize shareholder value,
including either an auction or liquidation, and rescinding certain agreements,
and attorney's fees. On July 8, 1998, the defendants moved to dismiss the
complaint on all counts.
Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, in an oral ruling from the bench
on December 8, 1998, the Court granted the Company's dismissal motion in part
and gave the plaintiffs leave to amend their complaint. In sum, the Court
accepted the defendant's position that all claims relating to so-called
"derivative" actions were filed improperly and were properly dismissed. In
addition, the Court dismissed common law claims for punitive damages, but
allowed plaintiffs 30 days to allege any claims which allegedly injured
shareholders without injuring ILM I as a whole. The defendants doubt that such a
cause of action could be alleged and continue to believe that this lawsuit is
meritless. The defendants have directed outside counsel to continue vigorously
contesting the action.
(f) Compliance With Exchange Act Filing Requirements: The Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Officers and Directors of the Company, and
persons who own more than ten percent of the Company's outstanding common stock,
to file certain reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, Directors and ten-percent
beneficial holders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with
copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it, the
Company believes that, during the year ended August 31, 1998, there was
compliance with all filing requirements applicable to its Officers and Directors
and ten-percent beneficial holders.

Item 11. Executive Compensation
- -------------------------------
The Company's Directors each receive annual compensation of $12,000 plus
$500 for attending each Board of Directors meeting and reimbursement for
expenses incurred in attending meetings and as a result of other work performed
for the Company. Officers of the Company are not compensated.
Lawrence A. Cohen, who was a Director of the Company until July 28, 1998,
received compensation from and was an employee of Capital Senior Living
Corporation, an affiliate of Capital, a related party.
Jeffry R. Dwyer receives compensation from and is a shareholder of
Greenberg Traurig, which acts as Counsel to the Company and its affiliates.
The former officers of the Company who were also officers of PaineWebber
received compensation from PaineWebber which indirectly related to services to
the Company because the Company was required to pay certain fees to PaineWebber
as described in Item 13. When PaineWebber resigned as advisor to the Company,
the former officers resigned effective the same date; therefore no services were
provided by such persons subsequent to June 18, 1997.
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
(a) As of the date hereof, no person of record owns or is known by the
Registrant to own beneficially more than five percent of the outstanding

(b) The Directors and Officers of the Company do not have any direct or

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
- -------------------------------------------------------
Subject to the supervision of the Company's Board of Directors, assistance
in managing the business of the Company was provided by PaineWebber. Under the
advisory agreement, PaineWebber had specific management responsibilities; to
perform day-to-day operations of the Company and to act as the investment
advisor and consultant for the Company in connection with general policy and
investment decisions. PaineWebber received a fee in an amount equal to 0.5% of
the gross operating revenue of the facilities. PaineWebber earned management
fees totaling $0, $70,000 and $88,000 for the years ended August 31, 1998, 1997
and 1996, respectively. PaineWebber was reimbursed for direct expenses relating
to the administration of the Company. Paine Webber performed certain accounting,
tax preparation, securities law compliance and investor communication and
relations services for the Company. Included in general and administrative
expenses on the accompanying statements of income for the years ended August 31,
1998, 1997 and 1996 is $0, $80,000 and $73,000, respectively, representing
reimbursements to PaineWebber for providing such services to the Company. As
discussed in Items 1 and 7, the Company, ILM I, ILM II and their affiliates
accepted the resignation of Paine Webber effective as of June 18, 1997. The
Company, ILM I, ILM II and their affiliates and Paine Webber entered into a
transition services agreement pursuant to which PaineWebber would continue to
provide certain administrative services to the Company, ILM I, ILM II and their
affiliates through August 31, 1997.
The advisory relationship with PaineWebber ceased on June 18, 1997;
therefore the payment of advisory fees ceased as of that date. Other services,
such as accounting, compliance, investor communications and relations, and cash
management services ceased on August 31, 1997; therefore, the Company was not
obligated to pay service fees past August 31, 1997 to PaineWebber.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company retained Capital to be the property manager of the Senior
Housing Facilities pursuant to a Management Agreement which commenced on July
29, 1996. As discussed in Note 1, Lawrence A. Cohen, who served as a Director of
the Company as well as President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I
through July 28, 1998, has also served as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial
Officer of Capital Senior Living Corporation, an affiliate of Capital, since
November 1996. Under the Management Agreement, Capital generally is required to
perform all operational functions necessary to operate the Senior Housing
Facilities other than certain administrative functions. The functions performed
by Capital include periodic reporting to and coordination with the Company,
leasing the individual units in the Senior Housing Facilities, maintaining bank
accounts, maintaining books and records, advertising and marketing the Senior
Housing Facilities, hiring and supervising on-site personnel, and performing
maintenance. Under the terms of the Management Agreement, Capital earns a base
management fee equal to 4% of the gross operating revenues of the Senior Housing
Facilities, as defined. Capital also earns an incentive management fee equal to
25% of the amount by which the net cash flow of the Senior Housing Facilities,
as defined, exceeds a specified base amount. Each August 31, beginning on August
31, 1997, the base amount is increased based on the percentage increase in the
Consumer Price Index as well as 15% of Facility expansion costs. ILM I has
guaranteed the payment of all fees due to the terms of the Management Agreement.
Capital earned property management fees from the Company of $919,000, $841,000
and $75,000 for the years ended August 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
On February 4, 1997, AHC filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the
State of California against Capital, the new property manager; Lawrence A.
Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998 was a Director of the Company and President,
Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, and others alleging that the
defendants intentionally interfered with AHC's property management agreement
(the "California litigation"). The complaint sought damages of at least
$2,000,000. On March 4, 1997, the defendants removed the case to Federal
District Court in the Central District of California. At a Board meeting on
February 26, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors concluded that since all of
Mr. Cohen's actions relating to the California litigation were taken either on
behalf of the Company under the direction of the Board or as a PaineWebber
employee, the Company or its affiliates should indemnify Mr. Cohen with respect
to any expenses arising from the California litigation, subject to any insurance
recoveries for those expenses. Legal fees paid by the Company and Lease II on
behalf of Mr. Cohen totaled $227,000 as of August 31, 1998. The Company's Board
also concluded that, subject to certain conditions, the Company or its
affiliates should advance up to $20,000 to pay reasonable legal fees and
expenses incurred by Capital in the California litigation. Subsequently, the
Boards of Directors of the Company and Lease II voted to increase the maximum
amount of the advance to Capital to $100,000. By the end of November 1997,
Capital had incurred $100,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. On
February 2, 1998, the amount to be advanced to Capital was increased to include
75% of the California litigation legal fees and costs incurred by Capital for
December 1997 and January 1998, plus 75% of such legal fees and costs incurred
by Capital thereafter, not to exceed $500,000. By August 31, 1998 Capital had
incurred $683,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. At August 31,
1998, the amount of legal fees either advanced to Capital or accrued on the
financial statements of Lease I and Lease II for Capital's California litigation
costs totaled approximately $519,000, although the final amount to be reimbursed
to Capital has not yet been determined.
On September 18, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with Capital
Senior Development, Inc., an affiliate of Capital, to manage the development
process for the potential expansion of several of the Senior Housing Facilities.
Capital Senior Development, Inc. will receive a fee equal to 7% of the total
development costs of these expansions if they are pursued. ILM Holding will
reimburse the Company for all costs related to these potential expansions
including fees to Capital Senior Development, Inc. For the years ended August
31, 1998 and 1997, Capital Senior Development, Inc. earned fees from the Company
of $212,000 and $0, respectively, for managing pre-construction development
activities for potential expansions of the Senior Housing Facilities.
Jeffry R. Dwyer, Secretary and Director of the Company, is a shareholder of
Greenberg Traurig, which began acting as Counsel to the Company and its
affiliates in late fiscal year 1997. Greenberg Traurig earned fees from the
Company of $168,000 and $0 for the years ended August 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Shareholders of
ILM I Lease Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ILM I Lease Corporation
as of August 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations,
changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended August 31, 1998. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of ILM I Lease Corporation at
August 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended August 31, 1998, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Organization, Restructuring, and Nature of Operations
-----------------------------------------------------
ILM I Lease Corporation ("the Company") was organized as a corporation
on September 12, 1994 under the laws of the state of Virginia. Through
August 31, 1995, the Company had no significant operations. The Company was
formed by ILM Senior Living, Inc. ("ILM I"), formerly PaineWebber
Independent Mortgage Fund, Inc., to operate eight rental housing projects
that provide independent living and assisted living services for independent
senior citizens ("the Senior Housing Facilities") under a master lease
agreement. ILM I initially made mortgage loans to Angeles Housing Concepts,
Inc. ("AHC") secured by the Senior Housing Facilities between June 1989 and
July 1992. In March 1993, AHC defaulted under the terms of such mortgage
loans and in connection with the settlement of such default, title to the
Senior Housing Facilities was transferred, effective April 1, 1994, to
certain majority-owned, indirect subsidiaries of ILM I, subject to the
mortgage loans. Subsequently, the indirect subsidiaries of ILM I were merged
into ILM Holding, Inc. ("ILM Holding"). As part of the fiscal 1994
settlement agreement with AHC, AHC was retained as the property manager for
all of the Senior Housing Facilities pursuant to the terms of a management
agreement which was assigned to the Company as of September 1, 1995. As
discussed further in Note 6, the agreement with AHC was terminated in July
1996.
ILM I has elected to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT")
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("the Code"), for each
taxable year of operations. In order to maintain its status as a REIT, 75%
of ILM I's annual gross income must be Qualified Rental Income as defined by
the Code. The rent paid by the residents of the Senior Housing Facilities
likely would not be deemed to be Qualified Rental Income because of the
extent of services provided to residents. Consequently, the operation of the
Senior Housing Facilities by ILM I or its subsidiaries over an extended
period of time could adversely affect ILM I's status as a REIT. Therefore,
ILM I formed the Company to operate the Senior Housing Facilities, and by
means of a distribution, transferred the ownership of the common stock of
the Company to the holders of ILM I common stock on September 1, 1995 (see
Note 4). Because the Company, which is taxed as a regular C corporation, is
no longer a subsidiary of ILM I, it can receive service-related income
without endangering the REIT status of ILM I.
The Company's sole business is the operations of the Senior Housing
Facilities. The Company leases the Senior Housing Facilities from ILM
Holding, a majority-owned and consolidated affiliate of ILM I which
currently holds title to the Senior Housing Facilities, pursuant to a master
lease which commenced on September 1, 1995 and expires on December 31, 1999
(see Note 5). In July 1996, the Company terminated the property management
agreement with AHC and entered into a property management agreement (the
"Management Agreement") with Capital Senior Management 2, Inc. ("Capital")
to handle the day-to-day operations of the Senior Housing Facilities. Since
November 1996, Lawrence A. Cohen, who served as a Director of the Company
and President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I until July 28,
1998, has also served as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of
Capital Senior Living Corporation, an affiliate of Capital. As a result,
through July 28, 1998, the Management Agreement with Capital was considered
a related party transaction (see Note 3).
2. Use of Estimates and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
---------------------------------------------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities as of August 31, 1998 and 1997 and
revenues and expenses for the years ended August 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996.
Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
Furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at the lower of cost,
reduced by accumulated depreciation, or fair value in accordance with FAS
No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of." Depreciation expense was provided on a
straight-line basis using an estimated useful life of 3 to 5 years. In 1998,
the Company changed the estimated useful lives of its assets
F-7

ILM I LEASE CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. Use of Estimates and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
the lease termination date of December 31, 1999, as such assets are not
subject to repurchase by ILM Holding. This increased depreciation expense by
$136,000 in 1998.
Units at the Senior Housing Facilities are generally rented for terms of
twelve months or less. The base rent charged varies depending on the unit
size, with added fees collected for more than one occupant per unit and for
assisted living services. Included in the amount of base rent charged are
certain meals, housekeeping, medical and social services provided to the
residents of each Facility.
The Company rents the Senior Housing Facilities from ILM Holding
pursuant to a multi-year operating lease. Rent expense is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreement. Deferred rent
payable represents the difference between rent expense recognized on a
straight-line basis and cash paid for rent pursuant to the terms of the
lease agreement.
The Company's policy is to expense all advertising costs as incurred.
Advertising expenses were $857,000, $883,000 and $915,000 for the years
ended August 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities appearing on the accompanying balance sheets represent financial
instruments for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments." The carrying
amount of these assets and liabilities approximates their fair value as of
August 31, 1998 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Income tax expense is provided for using the liability method as
prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." The Company has provided a valuation
allowance in fiscal 1998 to recognize the effect that the lease termination
date may have on the estimated net realizable value of the deferred tax
asset as explained more fully in Note 7 to the accompanying financial
statements. At August 31, 1998, a valuation allowance for deferred taxes of
$120,000 is included in deferred taxes, net, on the accompanying balance
sheet.
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income and Statement No. 131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, all effective for fiscal
1998. Statement No. 130 requires reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components in the financial statements. Statement No. 131
requires reporting about operating segments and other disclosures about the
business in its annual and interim financial statements. The Company does
not believe adoption of these new Statements will have a material impact on
its financial statements.
3. Related Party Transactions
--------------------------
The Company entered into an advisory agreement (the "Advisory
Agreement") with PaineWebber Lease Advisor, L.P. For discussion purposes,
PaineWebber Lease Advisor, L.P. and all affiliates of PaineWebber will be
collectively referred to as ("PaineWebber"). Subject to the supervision of
and pursuant to the general policies set by the Company's Board of
Directors, assistance in the managing of the business of the Company was
provided by PaineWebber. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Company engaged
PaineWebber and PaineWebber agreed to use its best efforts to manage the
day-to-day affairs and operations of the Company and to provide
administrative services and facilities appropriate for such management. The
specific duties of

3. Related Party Transactions (continued)
--------------------------------------
PaineWebber under the Advisory Agreement included recommending selections of
providers of professional and specialized services and handling other
managerial functions with respect to the Senior Housing Facilities.
PaineWebber was also obligated to provide office and clerical facilities
adequate for the Company's operations and to provide, or obtain others to
provide, accounting, custodial, funds collection and payment, stockholder
communications, legal and other services necessary in connection with the
Company's operations. The Advisory Agreement also obligated PaineWebber to
handle or arrange for the handling of the Company's financial and other
records.
PaineWebber received a base fee in an amount equal to 0.5% of the gross
operating revenues of the Senior Housing Facilities operated by the Company
as compensation for its services. This fee amounted to $0, $70,000 and
$88,000 for the years ended August 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. In addition,
PaineWebber was entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in providing
certain financial, accounting and investor communication services to the
Company. Included in general and administrative expenses for the year ended
August 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $0, $80,000 and $73,000, representing
reimbursements to PaineWebber for providing such services to the Company. In
performing its services under the Advisory Agreement, PaineWebber was
required to pay certain employment expenses of its personnel, certain
expenses of employees and agents of PaineWebber and of Directors, officers
and employees of the Company who are also employees of PaineWebber, and
certain of its overhead and miscellaneous administrative expenses relating
to performance of its functions under the Advisory Agreement. The Company
was responsible for reimbursing out-of-pocket expenses of Directors,
Officers and employees of the Company incurred by them exclusively in such
capacity and for all other costs of its operations.
At a meeting of the Boards of Directors of ILM I and an affiliated
entity, ILM II Senior Living, Inc. ("ILM II"), on January 10, 1997,
PaineWebber recommended the immediate sale of the Senior Housing Facilities
operated by the Company and held by ILM I as well as the Senior Housing
Facilities held by ILM II, by means of a controlled auction to be conducted
by PaineWebber, at no additional compensation, with PaineWebber offering to
purchase the Senior Housing Facilities held by ILM I and ILM II for $127
million, thereby guaranteeing the shareholders a "floor" price. The Senior
Housing Facilities operated by the Company under its master lease with ILM
Holding would represent approximately $75 million of this amount. After
taxes and closing costs, net proceeds to ILM I would equal approximately $71
million or approximately $9.41 per share of ILM I common stock. PaineWebber
also stated that if it purchased the properties at the specified price and
were then able to resell the properties at a higher price, PaineWebber would
pay any "excess profits" to the shareholders. To assist the Company and ILM
I in evaluating PaineWebber's proposal, a disinterested, independent
investment banking firm with expertise in healthcare REITs and
independent/assisted living financings was engaged by the Company, ILM I and
ILM II and their affiliates. Following a comprehensive analysis, the
investment banking firm recommended that PaineWebber's proposal should be
declined and that instead, investigation of expansion and restructuring
alternatives should be pursued. After analyzing PaineWebber's proposal and
the recommendations and other information provided by the independent
investment banking firm, the Boards of ILM I and ILM II voted unanimously to
decline PaineWebber's proposal and to explore the alternatives recommended
by the independent investment banking firm. The Boards declined to seek an
immediate sale of the properties because, in the Board's view, the
liquidation price would not reflect the "going concern" values of ILM I and
ILM II and, therefore, would not maximize shareholder value. In addition,
the Boards did not consider it advisable to liquidate ILM I and ILM II on
the suggested terms several years prior to their scheduled termination
dates.

--------------------------------------
PaineWebber indicated to the Board in its January 10, 1997, proposal
that it would not wish to continue to serve as advisor to ILM I, ILM II and
their affiliates if they declined to accept PaineWebber's proposal. The
Company, ILM Lease II Corporation ("Lease II"), ILM I and ILM II accepted
the resignation of PaineWebber effective June 18, 1997. PaineWebber agreed
to continue to provide certain administrative services to the Company, Lease
II, ILM I, ILM II and their affiliates through August 31, 1997, pursuant to
the terms of a transition services agreement entered into with ILM I, ILM II
and their affiliates. The Company, Lease II, ILM I, ILM II and their
affiliates also accepted, effective June 18, 1997, the resignations of those
Officers and Directors who were employees or otherwise affiliated with
PaineWebber.
The Company and ILM I are continuing to review various strategic
alternatives to maximize shareholder value and liquidity and have engaged
professional financial and legal advisors to formulate and present plans and
proposals for consideration by the Board. Although no definitive plans,
arrangements or understandings have been agreed to at this time, ILM I is
actively reviewing the feasibility of a variety of financial transactions
and proposals, including the reorganization of the ownership of the Senior
Housing Facilities, business combinations with third parties and the sale of
ILM I by means of cash and or stock-for-stock merger. There can be no
assurance that any definitive transaction will be formulated, agreed to or
consummated.
The Company retained Capital to be the property manager of the Senior
Housing Facilities pursuant to a Management Agreement which commenced on
July 29, 1996. As discussed in Note 1, since November 1996, Lawrence A.
Cohen, who was a Director of the Company as well as President, Chief
Executive Officer and Director of ILM I through July 28, 1998, has also
served as Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of Capital Senior Living
Corporation, an affiliate of Capital. Under the Management Agreement,
Capital generally is required to perform all operational functions necessary
to operate the Senior Housing Facilities other than certain administrative
functions. The functions performed by Capital include periodic reporting to
and coordinating with the Company, leasing the individual units in the
Senior Housing Facilities, hiring and supervising on-site personnel, and
performing maintenance. Under the terms of the Management Agreement, Capital
earns a base management fee equal to 4% of the gross operating revenues of
the Senior Housing Facilities, as defined. Capital also earns an incentive
management fee equal to 25% of the amount by which the net cash flow of the
Senior Housing Facilities, as defined, exceeds a specified base amount. Each
August 31, beginning on August 31, 1997, the base amount is increased based
on the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index as well as 15% of
Facility expansion costs. ILM I has guaranteed the payment of all fees due
to Capital under the terms of the Management Agreement. Capital earned
property management fees from the Company of $919,000, $841,000 and $75,000
for the years ended August 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
On February 4, 1997, AHC filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the
State of California against Capital, the new property manager; Lawrence A.
Cohen, who, through July 28, 1998 was a Director of the Company and
President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of ILM I, and others
alleging that the defendants intentionally interfered with AHC's property
management agreement (the "California litigation"). The complaint sought
damages of at least $2,000,000. On March 4, 1997, the defendants removed the
case to Federal District Court in the Central District of California. At a
Board meeting on February 26, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors
concluded that since all of Mr. Cohen's actions relating to the California
litigation were taken either on behalf of the Company under the direction of
the Board or as a PaineWebber employee, the Company or its affiliates should
indemnify Mr. Cohen with respect to any expenses arising from the California
litigation, subject to any insurance recoveries for those expenses. Legal
fees paid by the Company and Lease II on behalf of Mr. Cohen totaled
$227,000 as of August 31, 1998. The Company's Board also concluded that,
subject to certain conditions, the Company or its affiliates should advance
up to $20,000 to pay reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Capital
in the California litigation. Subsequently, the Boards of Directors of the
Company and Lease II voted to increase the maximum amount of the advance to
Capital to

$100,000. By the end of November 1997, Capital had incurred $100,000 of
legal expenses in the California litigation. On February 2, 1998, the amount
to be advanced to Capital was increased to include 75% of the California
litigation legal fees and costs incurred by Capital for December 1997 and
January 1998, plus 75% of such legal fees and costs incurred by Capital
thereafter, not to exceed $500,000. By August 31, 1998 Capital had incurred
$683,000 of legal expenses in the California litigation. At August 31, 1998,
the amount of legal fees either advanced to Capital or accrued on the
financial statements of Lease I and Lease II for Capital's California
litigation costs totaled approximately $519,000, although the final amount
to be reimbursed to Capital has not yet been determined.
On September 18, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with
Capital Senior Development, Inc., an affiliate of Capital, to manage the
development process for the potential expansions of several of the Senior
Housing Facilities. Capital Senior Development, Inc. will receive a fee
equal to 7% of the total development costs of these expansions if they are
pursued. ILM Holding will reimburse the Company for all costs related to
these potential expansions including fees to Capital Senior Development,
Inc. For the years ended August 31, 1998 and 1997, Capital Senior
Development, Inc. earned fees from the Company of $212,000 and $0,
respectively, for managing pre-construction development activities for
potential expansions of the Senior Housing Facilities.
Jeffry R. Dwyer, Secretary and Director of the Company, is a shareholder
of Greenberg Traurig, which began acting as Counsel to the Company and its
affiliates in late fiscal 1997. For the years ended August 31, 1998 and
1997, Greenberg Traurig earned fees from the Company of $168,000 and $0,
respectively.
Accounts receivable - related party at August 31, 1998 and August 31,
1997 includes advances of $0 and $93,000, respectively, to ILM Holding,
primarily to fund facility expansion costs. Accounts payable related party
at August 31, 1998 and 1997 consists principally of variable rent payable to
ILM Holding of $243,000 and $116,000, respectively, and expense
reimbursements payable to ILM Holding in the amounts of $93,000 and $0,
respectively, and to Lease II in the amounts of $102,000 and $0,
respectively.
4. Capital Stock
-------------
Prior to September 1, 1995, the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of
ILM I. Pursuant to a reorganization and distribution agreement, ILM I
capitalized the Company with $700,000, an amount estimated to provide the
Company with necessary working capital. On September 1, 1995, Mavricc
Management Systems, Inc., as the distribution agent, caused to be issued on
the stock records of the Company the distributed Common Stock of the
Company, in uncertificated form, to the holders of record of ILM I Common
Stock at the close of business on July 14, 1995. One share of the Company's
Common Stock was distributed for each outstanding share of ILM I Common
Stock. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of the
Company's Common Stock were issued to holders of ILM I Common Stock as part
of the distribution. In lieu of receiving fractional shares, each holder of
ILM I Common Stock who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a
fractional share of the Company's Common Stock received a cash payment
equivalent to $0.15 per share for such fractional interest.
5. The Master Lease Agreement
--------------------------
ILM Holding (the "Lessor") has leased the Senior Housing Facilities to
the Company (the "Lessee") pursuant to a master lease which commenced on
September 1, 1995. Under the terms of the master lease, which has a
scheduled expiration date of December 31, 1999, the Lessor has the right to
terminate the master lease as to any Senior Housing Facility sold as of the
date of such sale. The master lease is accounted for as an operating lease
in the Company's financial statements.

</TABLE>
(1) Date initial construction was completed.
(2) The Company operates Villa Santa Barbara under a co-tenancy arrangement
with an affiliated company, ILM II Lease Corporation ("Lease II"). The
Company has entered into an agreement with Lease II regarding such joint
tenancy. Lease II was formed for similar purposes as the Company by an
affiliated REIT, ILM II, a subsidiary of which owns a portion of the
Villa Santa Barbara property. The portion of the Facility leased by the
Company represents 25% of the total project. Villa Santa Barbara is
owned 25% owned by ILM Holding and 75% owned by ILM II Holding, Inc., a
majority owned, consolidated subsidiary of ILM II.
During the term of the master lease, the Company is obligated to pay
annual base rent for the Senior Housing Facilities. For calendar year 1996
and subsequent years, the annual base rent is $6,364,800, allocated as
follows: $969,054 for the Michigan Facility, $613,030 for the Winston-Salem,
North Carolina Facility, $1,100,441 for the Raleigh, North Carolina
Facility, $965,209 for the Illinois Facility, $966,634 for the Nebraska
Facility, $925,310 for the Kansas Facility, $674,742 for the Arkansas
Facility, and $150,380 for the California Facility. The master lease is a
"triple-net" lease whereby the Lessee pays all operating expenses,
governmental taxes and assessments, utility charges and insurance premiums,
as well as the costs of all required maintenance, personal property and
non-structural repairs in connection with the operation of the Senior
Housing Facilities. ILM Holding, as the Lessor, is responsible for major
capital improvements and structural repairs to the Senior Housing
Facilities. In addition, beginning in January 1997 and for the remainder of
the lease term, the Company is also obligated to pay variable rent for each
Facility. Such variable rent is payable quarterly and equals 40% of the
excess, if any, of the aggregate total revenues for the Facilities, on an
annualized basis, over $16,996,000. Variable rental expense related to
fiscal year 1998 and 1997 was $894,000 and $315,000, respectively.
Under the master lease, the Company's use of the Facilities is limited
to use as a Senior Housing Facility unless the Lessor's consent to some
other use is obtained. The Company has responsibility to obtain and maintain
all licenses, certificates and consents needed to use and operate each
Senior Housing Facility, and to use and maintain each Senior Housing
Facility in compliance with all local board of health and other applicable
governmental and insurance regulations. The Senior Housing Facilities
located in Arkansas, California and Kansas are licensed by such states to
provide assisted living services. Also, various health and safety
regulations and standards which are enforced by state and local authorities
apply to the operation of all of the Senior Housing Facilities. Violations
of such health and safety standards could result in fines, penalties,
closure of a Senior Housing Facility or other sanctions.

6. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
-----------------------------------
A management agreement between ILM Holding and AHC which covered the
management of all eight Senior Housing Facilities was assigned to the
Company effective September 1, 1995. On July 29, 1996, the Company and ILM
Holding ("the Companies") terminated the property management agreement with
AHC. The management agreement was terminated for cause pursuant to the terms
of the contract. Simultaneously with the termination of the management
agreement, the Companies, together with certain affiliated entities, filed
suit against AHC in the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and
fraud. The Company and ILM Holding alleged among other things, that AHC
willfully performed actions specifically in violation of the agreement and
that such actions caused damages to the Companies.
Due to the termination of the agreement for cause, no termination fee
was paid to AHC. Subsequent to the termination of the agreement, AHC filed
for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in its domestic
state of California. The filing was challenged by the Companies, and the
Bankruptcy Court dismissed AHC's case effective October 15, 1996. In
November 1996, AHC filed with the Virginia District Court an Answer in
response to the litigation initiated by the Companies and a counterclaim
against ILM Holding. The counterclaim alleged that the agreement was
wrongfully terminated for cause and requested damages which include the
payment of the termination fee in the amount of $1,250,000, payment of
management fees pursuant to the contract from August 1, 1996 through October
15, 1996, which is the earliest date that the management agreement could
have been terminated without cause, and recovery of attorney's fees and
expenses. The aggregate amount of damages against all parties as requested
in AHC's counterclaim exceeded $2,000,000. ILM I had guaranteed the payment
of the termination fee at issue in these proceedings to the extent that any
termination fee would be deemed payable by the court and in the event that
the Company fails to perform pursuant to its contractual obligations. On
June 13, 1997 and July 8, 1997, the court issued orders to enter judgment
against ILM I and ILM II in the amount of $1,000,000 (the "Orders"). The
Orders did not contain any findings of fact or conclusions of law. On July
10, 1997, the Company, ILM I, ILM II and Lease II filed a notice of appeal
to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit from the
Orders.
On February 4, 1997, AHC filed a Complaint in the Superior Court of the
State of California against Capital, Lawrence Cohen, and others alleging
that the defendants intentionally interfered with AHC's Agreement (the
"California litigation"). The Complaint sought damages of at least
$2,000,000. On March 4, 1997, the defendants removed the case to federal
district court in the Central District of California. At a Board meeting on
February 26, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors concluded that since all
of Mr. Cohen's actions relating to the California litigation were taken
either on behalf of the Company under the direction of the Board or as a
PaineWebber employee, the Company or its affiliates should indemnify Mr.
Cohen with respect to any expenses arising from the California litigation,
subject to any insurance recoveries for those expenses. Legal fees paid by
the Company and Lease II on behalf of Mr. Cohen totaled $227,000 as of
August 31, 1998. The Company's Board also concluded that, subject to certain
conditions, the Company or its affiliates should advance up to $20,000 to
pay reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Capital in the California
litigation. Subsequently, the Boards of the Company and Lease II voted to
increase the maximum amount of the advance to Capital to $100,000. By the
end of November 1997, Capital had incurred $100,000 of legal expenses in the
California litigation. On February 2, 1998, the amount to be advanced to
Capital was increased to include 75% of the California litigation legal fees
and costs incurred by Capital for December 1997 and January 1998, plus 75%
of such legal fees and costs incurred by Capital thereafter, not to exceed
$500,000. By August 31, 1998, Capital had incurred $683,000 of legal
expenses in the California litigation. At August 31, 1998, $311,000 of legal
fees have been either advanced or accrued in the Company's financial
statements and $208,000 of legal fees have been either advanced or accred in
Lease II's financial statements for Capital's California litigation costs,
although the final amount to be reimbursed to Capital has not yet been
determined.

6. Legal Proceedings and Contingencies (continued)
-----------------------------------------------
On August 18, 1998, the Company and its affiliates along with Capital
and its affiliates entered into a settlement agreement with AHC. The Company
and Lease II agreed to pay $1,625,000 and Capital and its affiliates agreed
to pay $625,000 to AHC in settlement of all claims, including those related
to the Virginia litigation and the California litigation. The Company and
its affiliates also entered into an agreement with Capital and its
affiliates to mutually release each other from all claims that any such
parties may have against each other, other than any claims under the
property management agreements. The Company's Board of Directors feels that
settling the AHC litigation is a prudent course of action because the
settlement amount represents a small percentage of the increases in cash
flow and value achieved for the Company and its affiliates over the past two
years.
Due to the Order, $1,000,000 had been recorded as a liability by the
Company and Lease II at the end of fiscal year 1997. At August 31, 1997, a
provision of $600,000 for the liability which might have resulted to the
Company had been recorded on the financial statements as "termination fee
payable", with the remaining $400,000 provision recorded on the financial
statements of Lease II. Due to the final settlement agreement, the 1997
provisions were increased by $625,000 at August 31, 1998, with an additional
$375,000 recorded on the financial statements of the Company and the
remaining $250,000 recorded on the financial statements of Lease II.
Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, on September 4, 1998, the full
settlement amounts were paid to AHC and its affiliates.
7. Federal Income Taxes
--------------------
The Company is taxable as a regular C corporation and, therefore, its
income is subject to tax at the federal and state levels. The Company
reports on a calendar year for tax purposes. Income taxes at the appropriate
statutory rates have been provided for in the accompanying financial
statements.
Deferred income tax benefit reflects the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
The Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of August 31, 1998 and
1997, are comprised of the following amounts (in thousands):
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
The 1997 deferred tax provision reflects a reclassification of $240,000
of current tax expense in 1997 which was ultimately determined to be
deductible in 1998.
The Company has provided a valuation allowance in fiscal 1998 to
consider the effects that the lease termination date (December 31, 1999)
might have on historical taxable income after giving effect to the
non-recurring termination fee, related legal expenses and the fact that the
net operating loss carryforward might not be utilized by the lease
termination date. The net operating loss carryforward will expire in 2013.

8. Year 2000 (Unaudited)
---------------------
The Company relies upon PC-based systems and does not expect to incur
material costs to transition to Year 2000 compliant systems in its internal
operations. The Company does not expect this project to have a significant
effect on operations. The Company will continue to implement systems and all new
investments are expected to be with Year 2000 compliant software.
9. Subsequent Events
-----------------
On February 11, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors elected Jeffry R.
Dwyer to the office of Chief Operating Officer.
