DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Overview and Background ----------------------- The Company is an owner and operator of private-pay assisted living communities including stand-alone Alzheimer's care communities. Assisted living is part of a spectrum of long-term care services that provide a combination of housing, personal services and health care designed to respond to elderly individuals who require assistance with activities of daily living in a manner that promotes maximum independence. The Company's growth strategy had been based upon the premise that high-quality assisted living services can be more appropriately and efficiently provided in its prototypical designed communities rather than in an existing facility that could be converted to use as an assisted living community. However, as further discussed below and in item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," during 2001, as a result of continuing operating losses and difficulties in obtaining operating licenses for certain new buildings, the Company was unable to meet certain of its lease obligations, discontinued all development and construction activities, reduced the number of communities it operates, downsized its workforce and entered into an agreement whereby the Company subcontracted a substantial portion of the management duties for its communities to another assisted living company, Emeritus Corporation. The Company has also been burdened by the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance). As further explained in item 3 " Legal Proceedings", Reliance provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. With Reliance currently in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must now defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. In 1996 the Company began an aggressive expansion program of acquiring sites in select markets in the western United States and began the development and construction of new communities. This program resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of communities and beds under operation in both 1997 and 1998. At the time of the Company's initial public offering in 1995, the Company operated four communities with a resident capacity of 565 beds. The Company grew to a resident capacity of 2,996 beds and operated 30 communities at the end of 2000. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had downsized its operations to 20 communities with a resident capacity of 2,067 beds. As of November 7, 2002, the Company operated 14 communities with a resident capacity of 1,575 beds. From 1995 to 2000, the Company's revenues increased from $12.6 million to $64.9 million. However, in connection with the opening and lease up of its newly developed communities, the Company incurred substantial operating losses. Although initial operating losses were anticipated, the Company did not foresee the extent of such losses. The Company attributes these losses to the extended time required to fill its communities and the difficulty in maintaining occupancy, which is primarily the result of competitive factors. Additionally, in 2001, the Company encountered extraordinary circumstances and difficulties in obtaining licenses for two new California buildings and in obtaining a certificate of occupancy for its new Arizona building resulting in significant time delays in opening these buildings. These delayed 1 openings resulted in significant unanticipated cash expenditures and delayed revenue generation for the Company. In an attempt to address the Company's requirement for capital, in March 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved and agreed to the implementation of a financial plan to address the Company's liquidity issues with the Company's majority shareholder and preferred shareholder. The financial plan included the conversion of certain debts to equity, a bridge loan provided by the Company's majority shareholder, the planned disposition of selected assets and the renegotiation of debt and lease obligations. The Company's Board of Directors approved the conversion of $750,000 of accrued dividends due to the preferred shareholder and $507,877 of deferred lease payments due to the majority shareholder into 857,143 and 580,431 shares of common stock, respectively. In connection with this transaction, the preferred shareholder agreed to waive its dividend for a period of two years beginning January 1, 2001, and the majority shareholder agreed to provide $1 million in bridge financing. Although the plan was partially implemented, the Company and the preferred shareholder did not complete the conversion into common stock and did not negotiate the final terms and conditions for the dividend waiver. The Company's Articles of Incorporation and state law prohibit the current payment of the preferred dividend since in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, the payment of the preferred dividend would jeopardize the on-going viability of the Company and potentially result in its insolvency. Accordingly, the accrued dividends are classified as long-term liabilities at December 31, 2001. In March 2001, the Company was unable to close two conventional loans with a financial institution in order to refinance two of its California communities. The inability to complete one loan was due in part to a pending accusation against the Company by the State of California Department of Social Services that was subsequently settled in July 2001, see item 3 "Legal Proceedings". Both loans failed to close due to the inability of the Company to obtain minimum excess liability coverage limits of five million dollars. As a result, the Company was unable to recover $195,500 in non-refundable advance deposits. These funds were advanced to the financing company directly by the majority shareholder and were included in the June 30, 2001 bridge financing demand note payable to the majority shareholder as described below. In March 2001, the Company reached an agreement with Health Care REIT, Inc. (HCN), the owner of four of the Company's leased communities, to utilize working capital escrow funds for two of its leased communities beginning in April 2001. The Company agreed to convert all of its leases with HCN into a master lease. The agreement was finalized in May 2001 and HCN agreed to transfer $502,600 from Restricted Cash to a working capital escrow for the purpose of funding operating deficits generated by the two leased communities. In addition, both the Company and HCN agreed to fund into the escrow an additional $1 million, if necessary. The first $375,000 was to be derived from the cash flow generated from two other communities leased from HCN. The next $375,000 was to be provided by HCN in the form of a loan and the remaining $250,000 was to be derived from the communities cash flow. Further, HCN agreed to temporarily waive a requirement for a security deposit in the form of a letter of credit. In March 2001, the Company failed to pay its March lease payment for its San Antonio community and received a notice of default from the lessor, Texas HCP Holding, L.P. (HCPI). In order to address the notice of default, the Company and HCPI executed a lease amendment to defer the payment of the March rent until July 2001 and also to defer the April 2001 lease payment until August 2001. These lease deferrals totaled $134,019. The Company did not pay these lease deferrals and in October 2001, after non-payment of the September and October 2001 lease payments, the Company received notice of termination from HCPI. The Company and the 2 lessor reinstated the lease effective November 1, 2001 after the lessor agreed to apply these past due rents against the $1,100,000 letter of credit held by the lessor. In April 2001, the Company and a commercial bank, which in December 2000 financed the purchase of four previously leased communities, agreed to a modification of the terms of their debt financing. The financing had originally provided that all cash flow from the operations of the four repurchased communities be applied against the outstanding principal of a certain portion of the underlying debt. The bank agreed to waive this provision for a period of six months ending September 2001. During the six months of the modification, the net cash flow from the four communities totaled approximately $976,000. In April 2001, the Company negotiated with LTC West, Inc. (LTC) the real estate investment trust owner of five of the Company's leased properties, lease deferrals of its May and June lease payments for four of the leased properties. The agreement deferred $257,805 in lease payments until July 2001 and $257,805 until August 2001. Additionally, LTC required the Company to amend its five leases so that all such leases would be cross-colateralized and cross-defaulted. On June 12, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved entering into a cross-colateralization and cross-default agreement for the two communities leased by the Company from entities owned by the majority shareholder. Pursuant to the financial plan, the majority shareholder provided cash advances totaling $750,000 under the bridge financing arrangement through June 30, 2001. On June 30, 2001, such advances were combined with additional amounts outstanding due to the majority shareholder and an affiliated company, along with accrued interest, into a demand note in the amount of $1,259,133. On July 3, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $1 million operating line of credit to be provided by the majority shareholder. Through September 7, 2001, the Company drew $1,000,000 under the line. In July 2001, the Company engaged an investment banking advisor to evaluate the Company's financial position, to assist in implementation of a restructuring plan, and to provide strategic alternatives including the raising of equity or placing of debt. The Company discontinued the investment banking services in September 2001. In August 2001, the Company sold one parcel of land it had available for sale that generated $0.5 million in net proceeds for the Company. Despite the cash infusion that resulted from these transactions the Company's liquidity difficulties continued due to recurring operating losses at certain of its communities and due to extraordinary circumstances and prolonged licensing issues in California. This resulted in significant unanticipated cash expenditures and delayed revenue generation for the Company. As a result of the Company's lack of liquid resources, the Company was unable to meet its September 2001 and October 2001 lease obligations to five lessors of the Company's assisted living communities: HCN, LTC, HCPI, Meditrust and the majority shareholder. The Company was issued default notices by the lessors of these leased communities. The Company entered into a settlement agreement with HCN. The operations of the four communities leased from HCN were transferred to new operators and the Company issued notes to HCN for past due rent obligations. The Company entered into a similar settlement agreement with LTC. The operations of the five communities leased from LTC were transferred to new operators and the Company issued notes to LTC for past due rent obligations. These settlement agreements are in full 3 satisfaction of all claims from cancellation of the lease agreements. The leases of the two communities leased from entities controlled by the Company's majority shareholder were terminated by the lessors effective November 1, 2001 due to non-payment of rent. The Company has recorded the missed lease payments as notes payable and is attempting to negotiate a settlement with respect to these properties on terms substantially similar to those agreed to by HCN and LTC. The Company currently manages these communities on behalf of the entities owned by the majority shareholder. In June 2002, the Company received a letter from its preferred shareholder disputing the termination of these leases and claiming that the terminations are voidable. See item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for further discussion of the lease terminations. In November 2001, the Company entered into a loan workout and settlement agreement with one of its third party lenders as a result of a payment default under the loan agreement. The Company deeded one parcel of land it had available for sale to the lender in satisfaction of $0.9 million of debt, restructured payment terms on the remaining loan obligation and provided collateral in other land held for sale. Of the remaining debt due of $0.7 million, the Company paid $73,500 in November 2001, $186,500 in December 2001, $250,000 in February 2002 and the remaining balance due of $225,000 was paid in September 2002. In December 2001, the Company, concerned by the quarterly interest obligation of its subordinated convertible notes and its operating losses at its Bakersfield, California community, exchanged its Bakersfield and Vacaville, California communities for $8.9 million of the convertible notes. An affiliate of LTC acquired the two properties subject to $18.3 million in mortgage and local improvement debt. The Company recorded a gain of $12.0 million in connection with this non-cash transaction. On December 26, 2001, the Company and its majority shareholder agreed to a specified distribution of the assets of Regent/Bowen, LLC, a joint venture formed in December 2000 for the purpose of acquiring four communities that were previously leased. The venture was dissolved and 100% of the venture's interest in the Santa Cruz and Clovis, California communities was distributed to the Company and 100% of the venture's interest in the Eugene, Oregon community was distributed to the majority shareholder. The remaining community in Boise, Idaho and other venture assets were distributed 75% to the Company and 25% to the majority shareholder in accordance with their respective ownership interests. As a result of the dissolution, the Company distributed cash of $165,091 and recorded a $31,783 payable to the majority shareholder. Pursuant to the financial plan agreed to in March 2001, the Company sold its Santa Cruz, California property to its majority shareholder on December 27, 2001, for a net sales price of $11.7 million. The Company received $5.0 million in cash proceeds of which $2.9 million was retained by the Company and $2.1 million was used to reduce debt after which $6.7 million of debt was assumed by the majority shareholder. Because of the transactions described above, the Company's operations were reduced from 30 properties to 20 properties in 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's working capital decreased to a deficit of $5.9 million and its accumulated deficit increased to $35.0 million. Included in current liabilities are payables to the Company's majority shareholder of $2.6 million. Also included in current liabilities is $8.9 million in debt related to the Company's South Ogden, Utah community. The Company had been declared in default under terms of the South Ogden loan agreement, and 4 accordingly the amount due was included in current portion of long-term debt. As described below, in May 2002 the Company signed an agreement with the lender whereby the Company transferred the South Ogden community to the bank in full satisfaction of the related debt. The Company has classified the net book value of the South Ogden property of $8.3 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. The Company continues to address its liquidity issues (see Item 7 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"). Recent Developments ------------------- The Company is considering various alternatives that may include the disposition of selected assets and/or the merger or sale of the remaining assets of the business. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of these pursuits, if taken, will not generate any value for the common shareholders. Commencing January 1, 2002, the Company contracted with Emeritus Corporation, an unrelated assisted living company, to provide operations management, consulting and accounting services to its assisted living communities. Under the terms of the agreement the Company pays a fee to Emeritus based on the number of communities and subject to the agreement of services provided. The typical fee is $8,000 per month per community plus potential performance incentives. The agreement is for a term of three years. As a result of this agreement, the Company implemented a plan to significantly reduce its corporate workforce at December 31, 2001 and through the beginning of 2002 to allow for an orderly transition of services. The Company continues to provide an oversight management role, partnership administration and asset management services including continued responsibility for placement of insurance and debt financing arrangements. In February 2002, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with Meditrust Acquisition Company LLC, (Meditrust) the real estate investment trust owner of its Alzheimer community in Scottsdale, Arizona and its assisted living community in Folsom, California. The Company's leases for these two communities were canceled and the Company was released from all liability thereunder, including any past due obligations to pay rent under the leases and any real estate taxes in excess of $25,000. In 2002, the Company realized a reduction in current liabilities recorded at December 31, 2001, of approximately $217,200 as a result of this transaction. The new owners of these two communities are affiliated with Emeritus Corporation. In May 2002, the Company sold its West Wind community located in Boise, Idaho to an unrelated third party. The Company received $2.8 million in sales proceeds and paid down $2.4 million in debt that was classified as current at December 31, 2001. Accordingly, the Company has classified the net book value of the West Wind property of $2.6 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. The Company abandoned its wholly owned subsidiary's Elk Grove, California construction project in December 2001 as a result of a declaration of default on the loan agreement by the construction lender. The Company wrote off $3.8 million in related construction costs and $155,000 in restricted cash deposits, was released from $3.0 million of construction debt and recorded a loss for this project of $0.9 million at December 31, 2001. In May 2002, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the lender and effective June 3, 2002 transferred its ownership interest in the construction project to a third party purchaser 5 identified by the lender. No cash proceeds were generated for the Company as a result of this transaction. The Company and the majority shareholder had provided guarantees of the construction loan and were relieved of these guarantees upon closing of the transaction. In addition, the settlement agreement provided for the transfer of the Company's South Ogden community to the lender in lieu of foreclosure. The transfer of the South Ogden community closed May 31, 2002. The Company recorded a gain of $1.1 million in 2002 in connection with this non-cash transaction. The lender had declared the Company in default on the $8.9 million loan for the South Ogden facility in 2001 and accordingly this debt was classified as current at December 31, 2001. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related South Ogden property of $8.3 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. In September 2002, the Company sold its 55% co-tenancy interest in its Modesto community to an unrelated third party for a net sales price of $2.8 million. The Company received $1.0 million in cash proceeds, $0.1 million in notes receivable and satisfied $1.7 million of co-tenancy debt which was assumed by the buyer. The Company, its majority shareholder and the unrelated 45% co-tenant continue to guarantee the full $3.0 million in debt assumed by the buyer. The Company recorded a gain in 2002 totaling $1.0 million as a result of this transaction. In September 2002, the Company assigned its lease of its San Antonio community to Emeritus Corporation for $408,000. The Company recorded a gain in 2002 of approximately $327,000 as a result of this transaction. In connection with the assignment the lessor released to the Company the cash deposit held under a letter of credit arrangement in the amount of $741,752. This deposit was included in restricted cash at December 31, 2001. Assisted Living --------------- The assisted living industry has evolved in response to pressure from the public to contain spiraling medical and other health care-related costs and because of the opportunity assisted living provides to allow senior citizens to "age in place" in a residential environment. Assisted living offers a combination of housing and personalized health and support services for senior citizens who cannot live completely independently but who do not require the 24-hour medical care provided by a skilled nursing facility. Skilled care typically also costs much more than that provided at an assisted living community. Generally, assisted living residents require higher levels of care than residents in congregate care but lower levels of care than patients in skilled nursing facilities. In addition to housing and meals (the services commonly provided in a congregate care facility), assisted living communities provide a range of personal care and support services designed to meet the individual needs of residents, including instrumental activities of daily living ("IADLs") such as laundry and transportation services. Additionally, assisted living residents often require assistance with activities of daily living ("ADLs") such as bathing, dressing, incontinence care and taking medications, but generally are not bedridden and can often provide various degrees of self-care. Assisted living seeks to encourage residents to live as independently as possible, emphasizing quality care while treating residents with dignity and respect. Principal Services ------------------ Services provided to residents of the Company's communities are designed to respond to their individual needs; promote independence, dignity and choice; and improve their quality of 6 life. Services are available 24 hours a day to meet both anticipated and unanticipated needs. General services include the provision of three meals per day, laundry, housekeeping, transportation, activities and medication maintenance. Available support services include personal care and routine nursing care, social and recreational services, transportation and other special services needed by the resident. Personal care includes services such as bathing, dressing and grooming, as well as assistance with personal hygiene, ambulation and eating. Other services include assistance with banking, grocery shopping and pet care. Each of the Company's communities offers residents services on a packaged basis. These packages of services are based on three progressively more comprehensive levels of care and two additional levels of care for dementia-specific care residents. This approach permits the Company to charge residents for graduated levels of care. Each level of care is priced to reflect all services provided at that level. In addition, this approach simplifies the billing process, which permits residents to plan their personal budgets with confidence. As the required level of care increases, the Company's revenues per resident also increase. The Company charges a variety of rates depending upon the level of care required and whether the resident chooses to live alone or in a companion suite. Geographic location, local wages and operating costs also affect the Company's rates. As of December 31, 2001, the Company charged rates ranging from a monthly low of $1,200 to a high of $4,812 for its assisted living services and a monthly low of $3,120 to a high of $6,200 for its dementia-specific care. Residents are also required to pay the Company a nonrefundable community fee prior to admission and, in some locations, also a refundable security deposit. Principal Product Lines ----------------------- The Company currently provides its services in 20 assisted living communities including stand-alone Alzheimer's care communities. Of these 20 communities, 17 were internally developed. The existing communities offer numerous services and activities designed to meet the varying needs of the residents, including the unique services required by residents afflicted with Alzheimer's disease or other age-related dementia ("dementia-specific care"). This community concept is generally identified by the Company as a "Regent" community and is the genesis of the Company's prototypical community. The Company currently operates 12 Regent communities. The Company developed a "Regent House" model, a smaller community than the "Regent", in order to meet differing market demands. The Regent House maintains the operational efficiencies and resident and service focus of the Regent model. The Company currently operates one Regent House that was managed by a third party in 2001. The Company also developed its "Regent Court" community at which it provides services solely to residents with dementia-specific care needs. The Company currently operates four Regent Courts. (i) Regent The "Regent" is the Company's primary stand-alone assisted living community model. This prototype design has been developed and refined through the Company's experience as an operator of its early assisted living communities, which also contain a significant portion of the important attributes of the Regent prototype. Use of this prototype will continue to allow the Company to control development costs and maintain efficiency in development and operations. 7 The prototypical Regent community is a stand-alone assisted living community containing from 90 to 135 assisted living beds, with between 10 and 20 percent of the total generally comprising the Kingswood Alzheimer's unit. A "stand-alone" assisted living community is a community devoted entirely to assisted living, as distinct from other models that may offer assisted living units in a separate wing or floor as well as other forms of long-term care such as congregate care or skilled nursing care. Regent communities generally range in size from 60,000 to 86,000 square feet and are generally built on parcels ranging in size from three to six acres. The buildings are two or three stories, depending upon site restrictions, and of wood frame, fire-rated construction. The exterior features are designed to be compatible with the predominant architectural designs of the area and with an emphasis on a residential versus institutional appearance. Individual units range in size from 320 square feet for a studio to 450 square feet for a one-bedroom apartment. Two-bedroom units are approximately 755 square feet in size. In some locations the Company has developed a small number of 900 square foot two-bedroom cottages next to the community for occupancy by a spouse of a community's resident or for those who do not require the more intensive services offered within the community. (ii) Regent House In addition to the larger Regent prototype, the Company has developed a smaller version for markets in which there currently is less demand for assisted living services. The smaller "Regent House" community will be approximately 40,000 to 55,000 square feet and be comprised of between 72 and 90 beds, generally with at least 22 beds comprising the Kingswood Alzheimer's unit. The community is designed with the same operational efficiencies and resident living and service considerations as the larger model, including similar sized living units, but with generally smaller lounge, dining, and recreation areas to reflect the lower resident population. The interior layout of each Regent House is designed to promote efficient delivery of services and resident independence. Circulation is organized around a core area on the ground level which contains the kitchen and common dining area, administrative offices, a commercial laundry, a private dining room, lounge, day room and public restrooms. Elevators are conveniently located for easy access to all common areas and resident units. Each Regent House community is expected to contain a Kingswood Alzheimer's unit which is designed to house and address the needs of residents afflicted with Alzheimer's disease and other age-related dementia. The dementia-specific care units are located in a separate wing or area of the community and have their own dining communities, resident lounge areas, and specially trained staff. The physical separation of the Kingswood unit from the rest of the community enables dementia-specific care residents to receive the unique care they require with a minimum of disruption to other residents. 8 (iii) Regent Court The "Regent Court" is a specially designed community solely for residents afflicted with Alzheimer's disease or other age-related dementia. The typical Regent Court resident will have cognitive difficulties, impaired motor functions, may be wander prone, and may have incontinence. Accordingly, as with the Kingswood unit of the Regent community, these communities will be much smaller than the Regent or Regent House, typically 22,000 to 26,000 square feet in a one-story configuration, and typically will service up to 48 residents within its 24 units. The Regent Court's 24 units are divided into four "neighborhoods" of equal size. Both the overall layout and that of each neighborhood are designed to provide an ideal therapeutic living environment and promote the efficient delivery of services. Generally, two neighborhoods are reserved for those residents with a high level of function and two for those with lower levels of function. The community is designed in this manner with the primary goal of providing high-quality care to the dementia-specific care needs of residents who require personalized care while providing for maximum efficiencies of operation. Because the residents generally are easily agitated and confused, organizing care within separate neighborhoods permits the Company to assign staff to a specific neighborhood in caregiver clusters. This permits the Company to minimize each resident's exposure to multiple persons and allows staff to more thoroughly learn about and provide for a resident's specific needs. Each neighborhood is connected to the others and to the main administrative area by a series of hallways, walkways, and a courtyard. Furthermore, due to the propensity of the Regent Court's residents to wander, exterior pathways are secured with fences to provide maximum independence to the residents while also insuring their safety. Some Regent Courts also feature covered walkways to permit residents opportunities for exercise on inclement days. Competition ----------- Providers of assisted living housing and services compete for residents primarily on the basis of quality of care, price, reputation, physical appearance of the communities, services offered, family and physician preferences and location. The Company's current and potential competitors include national, regional and local operators of assisted living communities as well as operators of long-term care residences, rehabilitation hospitals, extended care centers and skilled nursing facilities, retirement communities, independent living centers and home health agencies. Nevertheless, assisted living is a distinct and rapidly growing segment within the long-term care industry that is distinguishable from other long-term care alternatives. The Company believes that it competes favorably in all of the markets in which it operates in regards to the quality of its care and services, community designs and locations. However, many of the markets in which the Company operates have become overbuilt. There are few barriers to entry in the assisted living industry. The effects of such overbuilding include increased lease-up periods, downward pricing pressures and competition for employees. In addition, the competitive factors are having an impact on the Company's ability to maintain occupancy levels at certain locations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively in those markets where overbuilding exists, or that future overbuilding in other markets in which the Company operates will not adversely affect the Company's operating results. 9 Increased Operating Costs ------------------------- During the past year, the Company has experienced significant increases in labor costs, utility rates and professional liability insurance premiums. The Company faces substantial competition with respect to the hiring and retention of qualified personnel. The Company is dependent upon the existing available labor pool in each market in which it operates. There can be no assurance that labor costs will not continue to increase, or that the Company will be able to attract the necessary personnel at a reasonable cost. The Company has no control over its utility rates. There can be no assurance that utility costs will not continue to increase, or that the Company will be able to buy the power necessary to operate its communities. The Company's professional liability insurance premiums have escalated and the coverages have diminished. The Company maintains coverage limits of $1 million per incident, $3 million community aggregate, and $10 million policy aggregate, on a claims made basis with a $50,000 deductible per incident with a maximum annual deductible of $250,000, except with respect to its Texas community for which the Company has elected to be self-insured. Providing health care services involves an inherent risk of liability. There can be no assurance that future claims in excess of insurance coverage will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company's financial position or operating results. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain liability insurance in the future, or that such coverage will be available at reasonably acceptable terms. As further explained in item 3 "Legal Proceedings" and in the liquidity discussion of item 7 " Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", the Company is currently subject to significant liability losses that are uninsured as a result of the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer Reliance Insurance Company. Government Regulation --------------------- The Company's assisted living communities are subject to regulation and licensing by local and state health and social service agencies and other regulatory authorities. Although regulatory requirements differ from state to state, these requirements generally address, among other things: personnel education, training and records; staffing levels; community services, including administration and assistance with self-administration of medication; community design and specifications; resident characteristics; food and housekeeping services; emergency evacuation plans; and resident rights and responsibilities. In order to qualify as a state licensed facility eligible to receive Medicaid funding, the Company's communities must comply with additional regulations in these areas. The Company's communities are also subject to various zoning restrictions, local building codes and other ordinances, including fire safety codes. These requirements vary from state to state and are monitored in varying degrees by state agencies. The Company has obtained all required licenses. Assisted living communities are subject to less regulation than other licensed health care providers, but more regulation than congregate care or independent living retirement residences. However, the Company anticipates that states and the federal government will likely impose additional regulations and licensing requirements. Currently, certain states require licensees to provide the assisted living services offered by the Company. Certain states also require 10 Certificates of Need for assisted living facilities, but this is not a requirement in states where the Company currently conducts business. There can be no assurance that administrative or judicial interpretation of existing laws or regulations or enactment of new laws or regulations will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial condition. The Company believes that its current communities are in substantial compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements. Similar to other health care facilities, assisted living communities are subject to periodic survey or inspection by governmental authorities. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the Company receives deficiency reports which it reviews to take appropriate corrective action. Although most inspection deficiencies are resolved through a plan of correction, the reviewing agency typically is authorized to take action against a licensed community where deficiencies are noted in the inspection process. This action may include imposition of fines, imposition of a provisional or conditional license, suspension or revocation of a license, or other sanctions. If the Company fails to comply with applicable requirements, its business and revenues could be materially and adversely affected. As further described in item 3 "Legal Proceedings" the California Department of Social Services (DSS) filed an accusation against the Company on December 15, 2000 seeking to revoke licenses for eight of the Company's assisted living communities in the state of California. On June 28, 2001, the parties reached a settlement of the matter whereby the Company agreed to subject three communities to certain conditions of probation, including the maintenance of high quality of care and training standards that exceed regulatory requirements. The Company voluntarily put into place many of these standards prior to the settlement however further violations could jeopardize the Company licenses in that state. Although only a small portion of the Company's revenues are derived from the Medicaid program, the Company is subject to Medicaid fraud and abuse laws which prohibit any bribe, kickback, rebate or remuneration of any kind in return for the referral of Medicaid patients, or to induce the purchasing, leasing, ordering, or arranging of any goods or services to be paid for by Medicaid. Violations of these laws may result in civil and criminal penalties and exclusions from participation in the Medicaid program. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance with applicable Medicaid laws. Employees --------- As of December 31, 2001, the Company employed approximately 891 full time and 321 part-time employees and the corporate offices employed 19 individuals full time and 1 part-time. This compares to December 31, 2000 whereby the Company employed approximately 1,347 full time and 431 part-time employees and the corporate offices employed 51 individuals full time and 2 part-time. As of November 7, 2002, the Company employed approximately 715 full time and 279 part-time employees and the corporate offices employed four individuals full time. None of the employees is represented by any labor union. The Company had managed one community in 2001 and 2000 at which the owner employed members of a labor union. The Company no longer manages this community. Management believes that its employee relations are good. Trademarks ---------- The Company has federally registered its "Regent," "Regent Court," "Kingswood," and "Regent House" trade names in addition to the Company's logo. 11 Risk Factors and Forward Looking Statements ------------------------------------------- Set forth below are the risks that the Company believes are material. The information set forth in this report on form 10-K, including the risks below, contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and are subject to the safe harbor created by that section. From time to time, information provided by the Company, or statements made by the Company's management, may contain other forward-looking statements. The Company's ability to implement strategies to address its liquidity issues, as described in "Description of Business - Recent Developments", the factors discussed in, "Competition", "Increased Operating Costs" and "Government Regulation" and the following additional factors, among others, could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements contained in this report and presented elsewhere by management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report. THE COMPANY MAY NOT COMPLETE ANY OF THE STRATEGIC ALTERNATIVES IT IS EXPLORING. The Company is exploring strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of the Company or its assets. The Company cannot assure that it will be able to complete a transaction on terms satisfactory to the Company or at all. If the Company does not complete a transaction, and is unable to obtain additional financing, the Company's business may fail. THE COMPANY IS HIGHLY LEVERAGED. The Company is highly leveraged. After completing a number of settlement arrangements with its lessors and lenders, the Company has total term debt, including short-term portion, of $35.9 million and a deficit balance in shareholders' equity of $15.0 million as of December 31, 2001. The Company obtained some relief through the completion of the settlements with lessors and lenders, but continues to be highly leveraged. The degree to which the Company is leveraged could have important consequences, including: - making it difficult to satisfy debt or lease obligations; - increasing the Company's vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; - limiting the Company's ability to obtain additional financing; - requiring dedication of a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from operations to the payment of principal and interest on debt and leases, thereby reducing the availability of such cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures or other general corporate purposes; - limiting the Company's flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business or industry; and - placing the Company at a competitive disadvantage to less leveraged competitors. 12 Failure to comply with any covenants included in, or make timely payments on, the Company's debt or lease agreements constitutes an event of default, which will allow a lessor or lender (at its discretion) to declare any amounts outstanding under the loan or lease documents, as applicable, to be due and payable. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will comply in the future with these covenants included in the loan and lease agreements or have the ability to make payments in a timely manner. If the Company fails to comply with any of these debt or lease obligations (after giving effect to any applicable cure period), the lender or lessor may declare the Company in default of the underlying obligation and exercise any available remedies, which may include: - in the case of debt, declaring the entire amount of the debt immediately due and payable; - foreclosing on any residences or other collateral securing the obligation; and - in the case of a lease, terminating the lease and suing for damages. Accordingly, if enforced, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its financial condition. THE COMPANY IS A PARTY TO SIGNIFICANT LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND IS LIABLE FOR LOSSES NOT COVERED BY OR IN EXCESS OF ITS INSURANCE. Participants in the senior living and long-term care industry, including the Company, are routinely subject to lawsuits and claims. Many of the persons who bring these lawsuits and claims seek significant monetary damages, and these lawsuits and claims often result in significant defense costs. As a result, the defense and ultimate outcome of lawsuits and claims against the Company may result in higher operating and administrative expenses. Those higher operating and administrative expenses could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or liquidity. In order to protect against the lawsuits and claims made against it, the Company currently maintains insurance policies in amounts and covering risks that are consistent with industry practice. However, as further explained in Item 3 "Legal Proceedings," the Company's previous primary insurance carrier, Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance), declared bankruptcy and has informed its customers that it will not be able to cover any claims covered by its policies. Regent was covered for professional liability claims through Reliance from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. As a result, Regent must now defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. In addition, due to the prohibitive cost for insurance in Texas, the Company is self-insured in that state. As of December 31, 2001, there were significant claims against the Company that, if determined adversely to the Company, will not be covered by insurance, see Item 3 "Legal Proceedings". The Company is vigorously defending these uncovered claims, but there can be no assurance that these claims will be resolved in the Company's favor. Unfavorable outcomes of any of these claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or liquidity and may ultimately cause the Company's business to fail. A number of insurance carriers have stopped providing insurance coverage to the long-term care industry, and those remaining have increased premiums and deductibles substantially. While nursing homes have been primarily affected, assisted living companies, including the 13 Company, have experienced premium and deductible increases. The Company currently maintains coverage limits of $1 million per incident, $3 million community aggregate, and $10 million policy aggregate, on a claims made basis with a $50,000 deductible per incident with a maximum annual deductible of $250,000, except with respect to its Texas community for which the Company has elected to be self-insured. From March 1, 2001 to March 1, 2002 the Company's professional liability insurance was also provided on a claims made basis. The Company currently has no coverage for any incident during this time period where the claim is made at future date. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain liability insurance in the future or on commercially reasonable terms or at all. A claim against the Company, covered by, or in excess of, the Company's insurance, could have a material adverse affect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow or liquidity. THE COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT GOVERNMENT REGULATION. The operation of assisted living facilities and the provision of health care services are subject to state and federal laws, and state and local licensure, certification and inspection laws that regulate, among other matters: - the number of licensed residences and units per residence; - the provision of services; - equipment; - staffing, including professional licensing and criminal background checks; - operating policies and procedures; - fire prevention measures; - environmental matters; - resident characteristics; - physical design and compliance with building and safety codes; - confidentiality of medical information; - safe working conditions; - family leave; and - disposal of medical waste. The cost of compliance with these regulations is significant. In addition, it could adversely affect the Company's financial condition or results of operations if a court or regulatory tribunal were to determine that the Company has failed to comply with any of these laws or regulations. Because these laws and regulations are amended from time to time, the Company cannot predict when and to what extent liability may arise. In the ordinary course of business, the 14 Company will receive and has received notices of deficiencies for failure to comply with various regulatory requirements. The Company reviews such notices and, in most cases, will agree with the regulator upon the steps to be taken to bring the facility into compliance with regulatory requirements. From time to time, the Company may dispute the matter and sometimes will seek a hearing if it does not agree with the regulator. In some cases or upon repeat violations, the regulator may take one or more adverse actions against a facility, such as: - the imposition of fines - temporary stop placement of admission of new residents, or imposition of other conditions to admission of new residents to a facility - termination of a facility's Medicaid contract; - conversion of a facility's license to provisional status; and - suspension or revocation of a facility's license. The California Department of Social Services filed an accusation against Regent on December 15, 2000 seeking to revoke licenses for eight of the Company's assisted living communities in the state of California. On June 28, 2001, the parties reached a final settlement on the matter. As part of the settlement, the Company agreed to subject three communities to certain conditions of probation, including the maintenance of high quality of care and training standards that exceed regulatory requirements. The Company voluntarily put into place many of these standards prior to the settlement. The Company's failure to follow these standards could result in further violations and potentially the revocation of all of the Company's licenses to operate in California. MANY ASSISTED LIVING MARKETS HAVE BEEN OVERBUILT. Many assisted living markets have been overbuilt, including certain markets in which the Company currently operates. In addition, the barriers to entry into the assisted living industry are not substantial. The effects of overbuilding include: - it takes significantly longer for the Company's residences and its subsidiaries' residences to fill up, - newly opened facilities may attract residents from some or all of the Company's current facilities, - there is pressure to lower or not increase rates paid by residents in the Company's residences, - there is increased competition for workers in already tight labor markets, and - the Company's profit margins and the profit margins of its subsidiaries are lower until vacant units in the Company's residences are filled. If the Company is unable to compete effectively in markets as a result of overbuilding, the Company will suffer lower revenue and may suffer a loss of market share. 15 THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED EMPLOYEES AND CONTROL LABOR COSTS. The Company competes with other providers of long-term care with respect to attracting and retaining qualified personnel. A shortage of qualified personnel may require the Company to enhance its wage and benefits packages in order to compete. Some of the states in which the Company operates impose licensing requirements on individuals serving as administrators at assisted living residences, and others may adopt similar requirements. The Company also depends upon the available labor pool of lower-wage employees. The Company cannot guarantee that its labor costs will not increase, or that, if they do increase, they can be matched by corresponding increases in revenues. INCREASES IN UTILITY COSTS MAY REDUCE THE COMPANY'S PROFITABILITY. Utility costs represent a significant percentage of the Company's operating costs. The Company has no control over its utility rates. There can be no assurance that utility costs will not continue to increase, or that the Company will be able to buy the power necessary to operate its communities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pass the cost of increased utility rates on to its residents in the form of utility surcharges. Increases in the cost of utilities that the Company is unable to pass on to its residents could significantly reduce the Company's profits. THE COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO VARIABLE INTEREST RATES ON CERTAIN DEBT OBLIGATIONS. The Company's earnings are affected by changes in interest rates as a result of its variable rate indebtedness. The Company manages this risk by obtaining fixed rate borrowings when possible. If interest rates rise the Company's profits will decrease. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to manage this risk effectively. 16 ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

(1) A "unit" is a single- or double-occupancy studio or one or two bedroom apartment. (2) "Beds" reflects the actual number of beds used by the Company for census purposes, which in no event is a number greater than the maximum number of licensed beds permitted under the community's license. 17 (3) The leases of Regency Park and Sterling Park were terminated by the lessor for non-payment of rent for September 2001 and October 2001. The Company leased these buildings from entities owned by the majority shareholder through October 31, 2001, and continues to manage these communities on behalf of such entities. (4) The Company owns a 40 percent interest in a joint venture that owns the Corvallis community. (5) The Company owns a 50 percent interest in a joint venture that owns the Kenmore community. (6) The Company owns a 10 percent interest in a joint venture that owns the Kent community. (7) The Company sold its 55 percent co-tenancy interest in the Modesto community to an unrelated third party in September 2002. (8) The Company sold its West Wind community to an unrelated third party in May 2002. (9) In February 2002, the Company's entered into a lease termination agreement with the owner of its Folsom and Regent Court Scottsdale communities. The leases were canceled and the Company no longer operates these communities. (10) This community was sold to the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in September 1999 pursuant to a sale-manageback transaction. The sale was accounted for under the deposit method and in 2001 was accounted for as a sale. The gain associated with the sale has been deferred. (11) In December 2001, the Clovis and Santa Cruz communities were distributed to the Company and the Eugene community was distributed to the majority shareholder upon the dissolution of the joint venture formed by the Company and the majority shareholder in December 2000 to purchase these communities. The Boise community was distributed 75 percent to the Company and 25 percent to the majority shareholder in accordance with their ownership interests in the joint venture. The Company continues to manage the Eugene community. On December 27, 2001, the Company sold the Santa Cruz community to the majority shareholder and continues to manage this community. (12) The Company's West Covina and Merced communities were managed by a third party in 2001 and in part of 2002. The Company owns a 75 percent interest in a joint venture that owns the Merced community. The West Covina community was developed by a third party. West Covina is leased under a noncancelable lease agreement expiring in the year 2011. (13) The Company owns a 50 percent interest in a joint venture that owns the Salt Lake City community. (14) The Company had been declared in default by its lender on the $8.9 million in debt relating to its South Ogden community. On May 31, 2002, the Company transferred the South Ogden community to its lender in lieu of foreclosure. The transfer resulted in the full satisfaction of the related debt and in full satisfaction of the Company's liabilities related to this operation. 18 (15) The Company assigned its lease of its San Antonio community to Emeritus Corporation in September 2002. Under the terms of the assignment of the lease the Company remains jointly and severally liable for the performance under the lease until September 18, 2003. Office Facilities. The Company currently occupies approximately 2,800 square feet of office space in Portland, Oregon that is leased by Bowen Property Management Company, a corporation owned by the majority shareholder. The Company is paying the landlord directly for the obligations under that lease. The lease expires February 15, 2003. As a result of the Company's reduction in corporate office staff at the end of 2001 and early 2002, the Company vacated approximately 10,500 square fee of office space in Portland, Oregon in 2002. The space had been occupied under a lease agreement expiring February 15, 2003. The Company had been negotiating a lease cancellation agreement with the lessor, however, the lessor filed suit against the Company for non-payment of rent. The parties reached a settlement of the matter in September 2002. See item 3 "Legal Proceedings" for discussion regarding the corporate office lease termination. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company has been burdened by the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance). Reliance provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. With Reliance now in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must now defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. As of November 7, 2002, the following lawsuits previously handled by Reliance have been filed against the Company and either individually or in the aggregate are material. Spinola v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc., Case No. 01-018266 filed on or about August 14, 2001 in the Superior Court for the State of California of Alameda County. This is a wrongful death action filed October 4, 2001 by the family of a resident that bled to death in the Company's Sunnyside Court community in Fremont, California. The plantiff alleges several negligence causes of action along with fraud, wrongful death and emotional distress. Earle v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. Case No. 01-2-025950-9 SEA filed January 26, 2001 in the Superior Court of Washington in King County. Former resident of the Company's Sterling Park, Redmond, WA community claims that he fell while raising from a chair with wheels while in the lobby of the community and fractured hip. Claim is for medical expenses related to broken hip and compensation for pain and suffering and mental anguish. On August 30, 2002 Plaintiff filed an amended second complaint additionally alleging breach of contract, violation of statutory prohibition against exculpatory clauses, intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, violation of RCW 74.34, violation of consumer protection act, and loss of love, companionship and society of parent. Plaintiff requests judgment for special and general damages for pain, suffering, disability, disfigurement, loss of capacity to enjoy life, mental and emotional trauma, distress and anxiety. Plaintiff also seeks to recover attorney and expert fees. Steiner v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. also cause of action against LaFontaine, Walter C. Bowen and LTC West, Inc. Suit filed on or about May 1, 2001, Case No. CV-2001-02890, in the Second Judicial District Court for the State of New Mexico in Bernalillo County. Resident of Sandia Springs, Rio Rancho, New Mexico fell ill overnight and was transported next morning to 19 hospital and died several days later of aspiration and pneumonia. Complaint alleges numerous negligence causes of action along with wrongful death, breach of contract, conspiracy and violation of trade practices. Plaintiff seeks to recover compensatory and punitive damages. On July 15, 2002, LTC West, Inc. filed a motion to amend its answers to the filed complaint to add cross-claims for breach of contract and indemnification against Regent and Walter Bowen and to add third party claims against several Regent employees in the event that LTC is found liable for damages. The Company believes that the above claims are without merit and is vigorously working to settle the matters. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to settle these claims at a reasonable cost or at all. Even if the Company is successful in defending itself, the attorney fees associated with a defense could jeopardize the ability of the Company to provide a defense. If a judgment is rendered against the Company, the Company may be forced to pursue a court supervised reorganization. Other lawsuits that have been filed against the Company and are unrelated to the Reliance liquidation are as follows: Kuest v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. Case No. 99-2-09456-5.SEA filed in King County, Washington, Superior Court in 1999. Plaintiff alleges discrimination on the basis of gender, wrongful termination based on violations of express and implied contracts and promissory estoppel. Plaintiff seeks damages, attorney fees and costs. The Court granted in its entirety the Company's motion for summary judgment. Plaintiff appealed with the Washington State Court of Appeals, Case No. 48097-9-1, which reversed the trial court's decision on March 25, 2002. The case was remanded to the trial court. In addition to the matters referred to above, the Company is involved in various other lawsuits and claims which individually are not considered material. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and is vigorously working to settle the matters. However, unfavorable outcomes of these claims, in the aggregate, along with an unfavorable outcome of the claims described above may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and liquidity. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to settle these claims at a reasonable cost or at all. Even if the Company is successful in defending itself, the attorney fees associated with a defense could jeopardize the ability of the Company to provide a defense. If a judgment is rendered against the Company, the Company may be forced to pursue a court supervised reorganization. The parties to the following lawsuits reached settlement agreements in 2002. On June 3, 2002, the Company was served with a lawsuit filed by the lessor of the Company's office space that was vacated in 2002. Terrace Tower Group U.S.A. v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. Case No. 0205-05257 filed in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah. The complaint was for breach of lease; quantum meruit. On September 10, 2002, the parties reached a settlement of the matter. Carr v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. Suit filed January 20, 2000, in the Superior Court for the State of California in Sacramento County. Plaintiff, a guest of a resident of the Company's Willow Creek, Folsom California community, slipped and fell. On April 19, 2002, the parties reached a settlement of the matter. 20 Bedbury v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. Case No. 16-01-112181 Lane County Circuit Court Filed June 28, 2001. The family of a former Alzheimer resident of Sheldon Park in Eugene, Oregon alleged negligence and breach of contract regarding care provided. On June 26, 2002, the parties reached a settlement of the matter. Jerry Graham et al. v. Regent Assisted Living, Inc. et al., Case No. 00AS03608 filed in the Superior Court of Sacramento County. This was a wrongful death action filed on July 1, 2000 by the family of an assisted living resident who walked out of the Company's Willow Creek community and was later found dead. On August 6, 2002, the parties reached a settlement of the matter. Palmrose et al. v. Regency Park Apartments, Limited, et al. Case No. 0204-03852 filed on or about April 19, 2002, in the Circuit Court of the state of Oregon for the county of Multnomah. Alzheimer's resident of Regency Park, Portland, Oregon suffered burns from a baseboard heater in resident's room. On July 18, 2002, the parties reached a conditional settlement of the matter. The California Department of Social Services (DSS) filed an accusation against the Company on December 15, 2000 seeking to revoke licenses for eight of the Company's assisted living communities in the state of California. On June 28, 2001, the parties reached a final settlement on the matter. As part of the settlement, the Company agreed to subject three communities to certain conditions of probation, including the maintenance of high quality of care and training standards that exceed regulatory requirements. The Company voluntarily put into place many of these standards prior to the settlement. The failure of the Company to abide by these standards could potentially result in the revocation of all of the Company's licenses to operate in California. At November 7, 2002, the Company no longer owns or operates the three communities referred to above. With respect to the foregoing cases, at December 31, 2001, the Company has accrued $1.2 million which represents amounts paid in 2002 or agreed to be paid for settled claims and an estimate for claims still pending. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS Not applicable. ITEM 4(a). EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT As of November 7, 2002, the executive officers of the Company were as set forth below. Name Age Position ---- --- -------- Walter C.

MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS On September 28, 1999, the Company's Common Stock was deleted from listing on the NASDAQ National Market System ("NASDAQ") for failure to maintain a minimum $4 million tangible net worth, one of the requirements for continued listing. Since that time, trading in the Company's Common Stock has been conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for securities that do not meet the NASDAQ listing requirements, or in what are commonly referred to as the "pink sheets." As a result, an investor will likely find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of, the Company's Common Stock than when the Company's Common Stock was listed on NASDAQ. In addition, after September 28, 1999, the Company's Common Stock is subject to penny stock rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities. Consequently, the delisting of the Company's Common Stock from NASDAQ could adversely affect the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell the Company's Common Stock and the ability of purchasers of the Company's Common Stock to sell their securities in the secondary market. The following table sets forth the high and low closing sale prices as reported on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTC BB") for the periods indicated. Quarter Ended High Low ------------- ---- --- December 31, 1999 2.625 1.75 March 31, 2000 .875 .875 June 30, 2000 1.00 .875 September 30, 2000 1.6875 1.6275 December 31, 2000 1.00 .75 March 31, 2001 .875 .844 June 30, 2001 .05 .05 September 30, 2001 .05 .05 December 31, 2001 .05 .05 The Company had 28 holders of record as of November 7, 2002. Since its initial public offering in December 1995, the Company has not paid cash dividends on its Common Stock. As of December 31, 2001, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $35.0 million, which restricts the Company's ability to pay dividends. The Company's ability to pay dividends may also be limited by the terms of future debt and equity financings and other arrangements. Furthermore, the Company's ability to declare and pay cash dividends on its Common Stock is restricted by the terms of its Preferred Stock. In 2001 and 2000, the Company recorded accrued preferred dividends of $1,125,000 and $750,000, respectively. 23 ITEM 6.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview -------- The Company is an owner and operator of private-pay assisted living communities. Assisted living is part of a spectrum of long-term care services that provide a combination of housing, personal services, and health care designed to respond to elderly individuals who require assistance with activities of daily living in a manner that promotes maximum independence. The Company's revenues are derived primarily from resident fees for basic housing, personalized health care services, and other support services. In 1996, the Company began an aggressive expansion program of development and construction of new communities. This program resulted in a dramatic increase in the number of communities and beds under operation in both 1997 and 1998. At the time of the Company's initial public offering in 1995, the Company operated four communities with a resident capacity of 565 beds. The Company grew to a resident capacity of 2,996 beds and operated 30 communities by the end of 2000. At the end of 2000, the Company had a substantial working capital deficit and anticipated that its cash requirements during 2001 would exceed the cash provided by operations. The Company embarked on a strategic plan to address its liquidity issues. Additionally, in 2001, the Company encountered extraordinary circumstances and difficulties in obtaining licenses for two new California buildings and in obtaining a certificate of occupancy for its new Arizona building resulting in significant time delays in opening these buildings. These delayed openings resulted 25 in significant unanticipated cash expenditures and delayed revenue generation for the Company. As a result of continuing operating losses and the difficulties in obtaining operating licenses for certain of its new buildings, the Company was unable to meet certain of its lease obligations, discontinued all development and construction activities, reduced the number of communities it operates, downsized its workforce and entered into an agreement whereby the Company subcontracted a substantial portion of the management duties for its communities to another assisted living company, Emeritus Corporation. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had reduced its operations to 20 communities with a resident capacity of 2,067 beds. The Company has a substantial working capital deficit and anticipates that its cash requirements during 2002 will exceed the cash provided by operations. The Company will require a significant amount of capital to fund operating losses, debt and lease obligations. The Company is exposed to significant liability losses as a result of the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer that provided professional liability claims insurance to the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. The combination of a difficult financing and operating environment for the assisted living industry has limited the potential sources for capital. The Company is considering various alternatives that may include the potential disposition of selected assets and/or the merger or sale of the remaining assets of the business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these pursuits. At this time the Company believes that the net proceeds of such transactions after satisfaction of the Company's liabilities and the distribution to the preferred shareholder of its liquidation preference pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation may not be sufficient to permit any distribution to the Company's common shareholders. Recent developments impacting the Company's liquidity and operating results, are summarized under the caption "Description of Business - Recent Developments", which is incorporated in this Item 7 by this reference. Results of Operations --------------------- The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements under Item 8. The Company's revenues are derived primarily from resident fees for basic housing, personalized health care services, and other support services. Operating expenses are comprised generally of resident operating expenses, which include community payroll expenses, food, property taxes, utilities, insurance and other direct residence operating expenses; general and administrative expenses, which consist of payroll expenses and overhead for executive, development, operations, and accounting personnel at the Company's main office in addition to support functions such as legal and other administrative expenses; lease expense; and depreciation and amortization expense. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates ------------------------------------------ The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including allowance for doubtful accounts, land held for sale, investments in and advances to joint ventures, income taxes, restructuring, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from 26 other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes that the following critical accounting policies are most significant to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Revisions in such estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its residents to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company's residents were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company has made land available for sale and adjusts the value of such land to its estimated fair value. Subsequent changes in market conditions may not be reflected in the asset carrying value thereby requiring further adjustment upon ultimate sale of the asset. Joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Poor operating results of the properties underlying these investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments that may not be reflected in this investment's current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized, which at this time shows a net asset valuation of zero. While the Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a valuation allowance, in the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future of its net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. The Company regularly reviews all of its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that the Company considers important that could trigger an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the Company's overall business and significant negative industry or economic trends. When the Company determines that an impairment review is necessary based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company measures any impairment based on a projected undiscounted cash flow method. Significant judgment is required in the development of projected cash flows for these purposes including assumptions regarding the appropriate level of aggregation of cash flows, their term as well as the underlying forecasts of expected future revenue and expense. The Company has not recorded significant impairment charges to assets not held for sale; however, to the extent that events or circumstances cause the Company's assumptions to change, the Company may be required to record a charge which would be material. Gains realized on the sale and leaseback of the Company's assisted living communities are deferred and credited to income as rent adjustments over the related lease terms. The Company also defers development fees and amortizes them over the term of the related lease. Gains realized on sales or distributions of the Company's assisted living communities to its 27 majority shareholder are deferred and will not be recognized until such buildings are sold to unrelated third parties. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of total revenues represented by certain items included in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

28 Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 ---------------------------------------------------- Revenues. Revenues for 2001 totaled $64.0 million compared to $64.9 million in 2000, a decrease of $0.9 million or 1.4 percent. During 2001, the Company operated 35 communities comprised of eight stabilized communities, 20 newly developed or acquired communities, and seven communities operated pursuant to management contracts, of which four were owned in joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method. During 2001, the Company opened five new communities of which four were internally developed. Two of these communities were managed by a third party in 2001. In 2001, the Company assigned its leasehold interest in three communities to a third party, transferred operations of four of its leased communities to third party operators as part of a settlement agreement with the owner of these leased communities, transferred operations of five of its leased communities to third party operators as part of a settlement agreement with the owner of these leased communities, exchanged two communities for cancellation of convertible notes, and canceled the management contract for one community. Also the leases of two communities, that the Company leased from entities controlled by the majority shareholder, were terminated by the lessors. The Company continues to manage these communities. In June 2002, the Company received a letter from its preferred shareholder disputing the termination of these leases and claiming that the terminations are voidable. The Company operated 31 communities during 2000 comprised of seven stabilized communities, 17 newly developed or acquired communities, and seven communities operated pursuant to management contracts, of which three were owned in joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method. A community is considered "stabilized" for reporting purposes after it first attains occupancy of 95.0 percent and prior to that time is considered "newly developed." Rental and service revenues from the ten communities that the Company continued to operate at December 31, 2001, increased $4.9 million. Of this increase, $2.4 million was from three communities that the Company opened in January, February and July 2001. Two of these communities were internally developed and two were managed by a third party. Average occupancy at the seven residences that the Company operated at the beginning of both 2001 and 2000 was 82.5 percent for 2001 compared to 76.0 percent in 2000. Rental and service revenues from the communities that were disposed of in 2001, decreased $5.9 million. Management fee income increased $0.1 million in 2001. The majority of this increase is attributable to eight of the ten properties that the Company continued to manage at the end of 2001. Residence Operating Expenses. Residence operating expenses were $48.5 million for 2001 and $45.0 million for 2000, an increase of $3.5 million or 7.7 percent. Residence operating expenses from the 10 communities that the Company continued to operate at December 31, 2001 increased by $4.9 million from 2000 to 2001. Of this increase, $1.5 million was from the seven communities that the Company operated at the beginning of both 2000 and 2001 and $3.4 million was from start-up operating expenses and pre-opening costs for the three newly developed communities that opened in 2001. Residence operating expenses decreased $1.4 million from the communities that were disposed of in 2001. Residence operating expenses from the seven communities that the Company operated at the beginning of both 2000 and 2001 totaled 72.2 percent and 73.8 percent of rental and service revenue for 2001 and 2000, respectively. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $8.6 million for 2001 compared to $7.1 million for 2000, an increase of $1.5 million. In 2001 as compared to 2000, payroll and related costs and expenses decreased $1.1 million of which $0.2 million related to a non-recurring charge in 2000 for the termination of an employment contract, 29 offset by $0.5 million in severance related expenses from the Company's restructuring. Travel expenses decreased $0.1 million offset by an increase in other professional fees of $0.3 million for loan financing and other consulting costs. Development related costs incurred in connection with asset write-downs (land held for sale) and abandoned projects increased $0.7 million. The Company expensed $1.2 million in 2001 for professional liability and other claims paid in 2002 or agreed to be paid for settled claims and an estimate for claims still pending. Lease Expense. Lease expense for the Company's leased communities totaled $8.6 million for 2001 compared to $13.9 million for 2000. The decrease of $5.3 million relates to the acquisition of three previously leased communities in December 2000, the assignment of the Company's leasehold interests in its three Wyoming communities in February 2001, lease cancellations on nine of the Company's properties in November 2001 and the related full recognition of the deferred fees and gain on six of the properties that were subject to sale-leaseback transactions, offset by two newly developed leased communities which opened in 2001, one of which was cancelled and annual lease escalation clauses. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.7 million for 2001, compared to $1.8 million for 2000. The increase of $0.9 million relates primarily to the acquisition of three previously leased communities in December 2000, the opening of two newly developed communities in 2001, plus purchases of property and equipment to support existing operations. Interest Income. Interest income is earned from the Company's investment of cash and cash equivalents in high-quality, short-term securities placed with institutions with high credit ratings. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased in 2001, to $7.0 million from $3.9 million for 2000. Of this increase, $1.8 million was incurred due to the acquisition in December 2000 of four previously leased communities (one of which had been accounted for as a capital lease), $1.1 million was incurred primarily due to the opening and completion of two newly developed communities, and $0.2 million was incurred as a result of short-term borrowings from the majority shareholder. Equity in Losses of Joint Ventures. Equity in losses of joint ventures resulted from the operations of the Company's 50 percent owned Kenmore, Washington community, the Company's 10 percent owned Kent, Washington community, the 40 percent owned Corvallis, Oregon community and pre-opening costs and start-up costs of the 50 percent owned Salt Lake City, Utah community. Other Income (Loss), Net. In 2001, the Company recorded losses of $0.5 million as a result of settlement agreements with the owners of nine of its properties for lease cancellations and exchanged its Bakersfield and Vacaville, California communities for cancellation of convertible notes, recognizing a $12.0 million gain. The Company recorded a $1.5 million loss from the cancellation of leases with entities owned by the majority shareholder. The Company also assigned its leasehold interest in its three Wyoming communities for a $0.1 million gain. Net Loss. Net operating results increased by $5.1 million for 2001, compared to the same period in 2000. The Company reported a loss of $1.3 million for 2001, whereas the Company reported a loss of $6.5 million for 2000. The increase in net results is primarily due to an increase in other income (loss) of $10.1 million and a decrease in lease expense of $5.3 million offset by a decrease in residence operating profits (rental and service revenue less residence operating 30 expenses) of $4.5 million, a decrease in interest income of $0.1 million, and increases in general and administrative expenses, depreciation expense, interest expense and equity in losses of joint ventures, all as discussed above. Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 ---------------------------------------------------- Revenues. Revenues for 2000 totaled $64.9 million compared to $54.1 million in 1999, an increase of $10.8 million or 20.0 percent. During 2000, the Company operated 31 communities comprised of seven stabilized communities, 17 newly developed or acquired communities, and seven communities operated pursuant to management contracts, of which three are owned in joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method. The Company operated 29 communities during 1999 comprised of five stabilized communities, 20 newly developed or acquired communities, including one sold during the year pursuant to a sale-manageback arrangement, and four operated pursuant to management contracts, of which two are owned in joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method. A community is considered "stabilized" for reporting purposes after it first attains occupancy of 95.0 percent and prior to that time is considered "newly developed." During 2000, rental and service revenues from Same Residences, the 22 communities the Company operated at the beginning of both 2000 and 1999, comprised of seven stabilized and 15 newly developed communities, increased by $9.3 million. Of this increase, $1.3 million was from the seven stabilized communities and $8.0 million was from the 15 newly developed communities. Revenues from two additional newly developed communities, one which opened in February 1999 and the other in April 1999, increased $1.2 million. Average occupancy at the 22 same residences was 83.9 percent for 2000 compared to 76.4 percent in 1999. Overall average occupancy at the Company's seven stabilized communities was 94.3 percent for 2000. Residence Operating Expenses. Residence operating expenses were $45.0 million for 2000 and $38.6 million for 1999, an increase of $6.4 million or 16.6 percent. Residence operating expenses from the 22 Same Residences increased by $5.7 million from 1999 to 2000. Of this increase, $0.9 million was from the seven stabilized communities and $4.8 million was from the 15 newly developed communities. Residence operating expenses for all other newly developed communities for 2000 include $2.4 million of start-up operating expenses and pre-opening costs, whereas such expenses totaled $1.7 million in 1999. Residence operating expenses from Same Residences totaled 68.8 percent and 70.2 percent of rental and service revenue for 2000 and 1999, respectively. General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $7.1 million for 2000 compared to $7.3 million for 1999, a decrease of $0.2 million. Payroll and related expenses increased by $0.6 million from 1999 to 2000. Development related costs incurred in connection with asset write-downs (land held for sale) and abandoned projects totaled $1.0 million in 2000 compared to $1.9 million in 1999. Other general and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million from 1999 to 2000 primarily due to the implementation of the Company's plan for growth. Lease Expense. Lease expense for the Company's leased communities totaled $13.9 million for 2000 compared to $13.4 million for 1999. The increase of $0.5 million relates to annual lease escalation clauses, three newly developed leased communities two of which opened in 1999 and the sale-leaseback of one newly developed community offset by the acquisition of a previously leased community. 31 Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.8 million for 2000, compared to $1.5 million for 1999. The increase of $0.3 million relates primarily to purchases of property and equipment to support existing operations. Interest Income. Interest income is earned from the Company's investment of cash and cash equivalents in high-quality, short-term securities placed with institutions with high credit ratings. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased in 2000, to $3.9 million from $2.6 million for 1999. Interest expense related to the operation of communities increased to $0.4 million and interest expense related to land held for sale increased by $0.3 million in 2000 as compared to 1999. The Company capitalized $0.1 million of interest charges in 2000, whereas the Company capitalized $2.0 million of interest charges in 1999. Equity in Losses of Joint Ventures. Equity in losses of joint ventures resulted from the operations of the Company's 50 percent owned Kenmore, Washington community, the Company's 10 percent owned Kent, Washington community, the 40 percent owned Corvallis, Oregon community and pre-opening costs of the 50 percent owned Salt Lake City, Utah community. Other Income (Loss), Net. In 1999, the Company sold a 45 percent co-tenancy interest in its Modesto, California community. The Company recognized a $0.5 million gain as a result of the sale. Net Loss. Net operating results increased by $2.3 million for 2000, compared to the same period in 1999. The Company reported a loss of $6.5 million for 2000, whereas the Company reported a loss of $8.8 million for 1999. The increase in net results is primarily due to an increase in residence operating profits (rental and service revenue less residence operating expenses) of $4.1 million and a decrease of $0.2 million in general and administrative expenses, offset by increases in lease expense, depreciation expense, interest expense and equity in losses of joint ventures and other income (loss), all as discussed above. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- At December 31, 2001, the Company had a $5.9 million working capital deficit, compared to a working capital deficit of $3.9 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease in working capital relates primarily to an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $1.5 million (as described below) and offset by an increase in net current liabilities of $3.5 million. Current liabilities include payables of $2.6 million to the Company's majority shareholder. Also included in current liabilities is $8.9 million in debt related to the Company's South Ogden, Utah community which was opened in January 2001. The Company had been declared in default under terms of the loan agreement and accordingly the amount due was included in current portion of long-term debt. As described below, in May 2002 the Company signed an agreement with the lender whereby the Company transferred the South Ogden community to the bank in full satisfaction of the related debt. Accordingly, the Company has classified the net book value of the South Ogden property of $8.3 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. The Company anticipates that its cash requirements during 2002 will exceed the cash provided by operations. The Company is exposed to significant liability losses that are uninsured as a result of the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer that provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. 32 With the insurance company currently in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. The Company is considering various alternatives that may include the disposition of selected assets and/or the merger or sale of the remaining assets of the business. The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of these pursuits, if taken, will not generate any value for the common shareholders. Net cash used in operating activities totaled $4.0 million for 2001, resulting primarily from a net loss of $1.3 million, adjusted $8.4 million for non-cash items (depreciation, amortization, gain on sale of assets, loss on disposal of construction in progress, adjustment of land held for sale to fair value, equity interest in joint ventures, decrease in allowance for doubtful accounts and minority interests), an increase in current liabilities of $3.1 million, the release of cash held in working capital escrow of $1.4 million, a decrease in accounts receivable of $0.4 million and an increase in deferred lease and interest payable to the majority shareholder of $0.8 million. Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $1.0 million consisting primarily of $5.0 million in proceeds from the sale of the Company's Santa Cruz, California community to its majority shareholder, proceeds from the sale of land previously held for sale of $0.5 million, $0.3 million from the assignment of the Company's leasehold interests in three Wyoming communities offset by $4.4 million in construction costs, a reduction in construction accounts payable of $0.2 million and a distribution of $0.2 million to the majority shareholder as a result of the dissolution of the Company's joint venture Regent/Bowen, LLC. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $4.4 million, primarily consisting of short-term borrowings from the majority shareholder of $1.9 million, property and equipment financing proceeds totaling $5.7 million, a decrease in restricted cash for financing arrangements of $1.1 million, a net decrease in payments and deposits for lease financing arrangements of $0.4 million, offset by repayment of long-term debt of $4.7 million. In February 2001, the Company assigned its leasehold interest in three Wyoming communities to a third party for $325,000. The leasehold interests were assigned as a result of the difficulty in servicing these communities due to logistics and also due to continuing losses at two of the communities. In March 2001, the Company was unable to close two conventional loans with a financial institution in order to refinance two of its California communities. The inability to complete one loan was due in part to a pending accusation against the Company by the State of California Department of Social Services that was subsequently settled in July 2001, see item 3 "Legal Proceedings". Both loans failed to close due to the inability of the Company to obtain minimum excess liability coverage limits of five million dollars. As a result, the Company was unable to recover $195,500 in non-refundable advance deposits. These funds were advanced to the financing company directly by the majority shareholder and were included in the June 30, 2001 bridge financing demand note payable to the majority shareholder as described below. In April 2001, the Company and a commercial bank, which in December 2000 financed the purchase of four previously leased communities, agreed to a modification of the terms of their debt financing. The financing had originally provided that all cash flow from the operations of the four repurchased communities be applied against the outstanding principal of a certain portion of the underlying debt. The bank agreed to waive this provision for a period of six months ending 33 September 2001. During the six months of the modification, the net cash flow from the four communities totaled approximately $976,000 Pursuant to the financial plan the majority shareholder provided cash advances totaling $750,000 under a bridge financing arrangement through June 30, 2001. On June 30, 2001, such advances were combined with additional outstanding amounts due to the majority shareholder and an affiliated company, along with accrued interest, into a demand note in the amount of $1,259,133. The note was due on June 30, 2002, and is now past due. It remains unpaid and the Company is currently attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. On July 3, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $1 million operating line of credit provided by the majority shareholder. Through September 7, 2001, the Company drew $1,000,000 under the line. The note was due on June 30, 2002, and is now past due. It remains unpaid and the Company is currently attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. Effective October 31, 2001, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with HCN the real estate investment trust owner of four of the Company's communities that were leased under a master lease to resolve events of default primarily due to failure of the Company to pay its September and October 2001 lease payments. The settlement included transfer of the operations of the communities to new operators and a note payable to HCN for past due rent obligations totaling $585,709. The note provides for 8% interest payable quarterly and principal and interest payments of $43,232 payable quarterly beginning in January 2003. The note is guaranteed by the majority shareholder and is due November 2006. The Company recorded losses totaling $266,000 as a result of this transaction. Effective November 1, 2001, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with LTC the real estate investment trust owner of five of the Company's leased communities that were cross-defaulted to resolve events of default primarily due to failure of the Company to pay its September and October 2001 lease payments. The settlement included transfer of the operations of the communities to new operators and a note payable to LTC for past due rent obligations. The note was combined with additional amounts outstanding under an existing note payable to LTC to total $650,000. The note provides for 8% interest payable quarterly and monthly installments of principal and interest totaling $15,868 beginning December 2002. The note is guaranteed by the majority shareholder and is due November 2006. The Company recorded losses totaling $343,000 as a result of this transaction. Effective November 1, 2001, the leases of two communities leased from entities under the control of the majority shareholder were terminated by the lessors due to non-payment of the September and October 2001 lease payments. These leases were cross-defaulted. The Company is attempting to negotiate a settlement with the lessors. The Company continues to manage these communities on behalf of the lessors. The Company has recorded the missed lease payments as notes payable in the amount of $473,108 accruing interest at 8% of which $167,108 would be subordinate to dividend payments due to the Company's preferred shareholder. The Company recorded a loss of $1.5 million as a result of the cancellation of the leases and write-off of leasehold improvements. In June 2002, the Company received a letter from its preferred shareholder disputing the termination of these leases and claiming that the terminations are voidable. The lessors have refused to reinstate these leases. Pursuant to terms of the lease agreements, the Company owes the majority shareholder $1,292,199 for deferred lease and interest payments which amounts are subordinate to dividend payments due to the Company's preferred shareholder. 34 On November 1, 2001, the Company entered into a loan workout and settlement agreement with one of its third party lenders as a result of a payment default under the loan agreement. The Company deeded one parcel of land that it held for sale to the lender in satisfaction of $0.9 million in debt, restructured the payment terms on the remaining loan obligation and provided collateral in other land held for sale. Of the remaining debt due of $0.7 million, the Company paid $73,500 in November 2001, $186,500 in December 2001, $250,000 in February 2002 and the remaining balance due of $225,000 was paid in September 2002. In December 2001, the Company, concerned by the quarterly interest obligation of it's subordinated convertible notes and the operating losses at its Bakersfield, California community, exchanged its Bakersfield and Vacaville, California communities for $8.9 million of the convertible notes. An affiliate of LTC acquired the two properties subject to $18.3 million in mortgage and local improvement debt. The Company recorded a gain of $12.0 million in connection with this non-cash transaction. On December 26, 2001, the Company and its majority shareholder agreed to a specified distribution of the assets of Regent/Bowen, LLC, a joint venture formed in December 2000 for the purpose of acquiring four communities that were previously leased. The Company had contributed $0.6 million along with its rights to purchase the four communities for a 75% interest in the joint venture. The majority shareholder had contributed $1.2 million for a 25% interest. In addition, the venture had obtained $32.2 million in bank financing and $0.5 million of seller provided financing in order to complete the acquisitions. The venture was dissolved in December 2001 and 100% of the venture's interest in the Santa Cruz and Clovis, California communities was distributed to the Company and 100% of the venture's interest in the Eugene, Oregon community was distributed to the majority shareholder. The remaining community located in Boise, Idaho and other venture assets were distributed 75% to the Company and 25% to the majority shareholder in accordance with their ownership interests. As a result of the dissolution, the Company distributed cash of $165,091 and recorded a $31,783 payable to the majority shareholder. On December 27, 2001, the Company sold its Santa Cruz, California property to its majority shareholder for a net sales price of $11.7 million. The Company received $5.0 million in cash proceeds of which $2.9 million was retained by the Company and $2.1 million was used to reduce debt after which $6.7 million was assumed by the majority shareholder. Commencing January 1, 2002, the Company contracted with Emeritus Corporation, an unrelated assisted living company, to provide operations management, consulting and accounting services to its assisted living communities. Accordingly the Company implemented a restructuring plan to reduce a significant portion of its corporate workforce at December 31, 2001 and in the first quarter of 2002. The Company continues to provide an oversight management role, partnership administration and asset management services including continued responsibility for placement of insurance and debt financing arrangements. As of November 7, 2002, the Company has no additional communities under construction. During 2000 and 2001, the Company did not pay the quarterly dividends which accrued with respect to its preferred stock. The first quarter 2000 dividend rate was 6 percent. For each subsequent quarter in which the dividend was not paid, the dividend rate increased by one percent. The maximum rate that could apply to the dividend is 12 percent or prime plus 300 basis points. As of December 31, 2001, a total of $1,875,000 was in arrears. The Company's 35 Articles of Incorporation and state law prohibit the current payment of the preferred dividend since in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, the payment of the preferred dividend would jeopardize the on-going viability of the Company and potentially result in its insolvency. Accordingly, the Company has recorded these amounts as long-term liabilities at December 31, 2001. The Company is subject to significant liability losses that are uninsured as a result of the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance). As further explained in item 3 " Legal Proceedings", Reliance provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. With Reliance currently in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must now defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. At December 31, 2001, the Company has accrued $1.2 million which represents amounts paid in 2002 or agreed to be paid for settled claims and an estimate for claims still pending. In order to conserve working capital and generate additional working capital, the Company has discontinued development activities and has one other parcel of real property previously held for development listed for sale. Certain remaining operating lease agreements and loans contain restrictive covenants. A failure by the Company to comply with the requirements of these covenants, if not waived or cured, could permit acceleration of the related indebtedness. Some of the Company's debt instruments contain cross default provisions pursuant to which a default under one obligation can cause a default under one or more other obligations to the same lender. At December 31, 2001, such cross default provisions affected two of the Company's owned assisted living properties and two properties for which it provided a guarantee. At December 31, 2001, the Company was in compliance with all covenants specified in its debt or lease obligations for the properties that the Company continued to own at November 7, 2002. The following table summarizes the Company's commitments under the terms of its debt obligations and operating leases as of December 31, 2001:

Subsequent to December 31, 2001, the Company refinanced $15.2 million of debt at more favorable terms and as a result the Company's guarantees on loans to entities owned by the majority shareholder were reduced to $8.1 million. Additionally a result of these transactions was the elimination of the cross-defaults of the Company's debt and guaranteed debt. As more fully described in the preceding paragraphs the Company had several significant transactions with its majority shareholder in 2001. The Company believes that the transactions 36 were on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from unaffiliated parties in arms-length transactions, however, there can be no assurance that such is the case. Impact of Inflation ------------------- To date, the Company has experienced inflationary pressures in the areas of wages, insurance and utilities. In pricing its services, the Company attempts to incorporate and anticipate inflation levels. The Company's ability to increase revenues in proportion to increased operating expenses is at times limited due to the Company's dependence on its senior resident population, most of whom rely on relatively fixed incomes to pay for the Company's services. The Company typically does not rely to a significant extent on governmental reimbursement programs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to respond to inflationary pressures in the future. Subsequent Events ----------------- In February 2002, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with Meditrust the real estate investment trust owner of its Alzheimer community in Scottsdale, Arizona and its assisted living community in Folsom, California. The Company's leases for these two communities were canceled and the Company was released from all liability thereunder, including any past due obligations to pay rent under the leases and any real estate taxes in excess of $25,000. The Company realized a reduction in current liabilities that were recorded at December 31, 2001, of approximately $217,200 as a result of this transaction. The new owners of these two communities are affiliated with Emeritus Corporation. In May 2002, the Company sold its West Wind community located in Boise, Idaho to a third party. The Company received $2.8 million in sales proceeds and paid down $2.4 million of debt that was classified as current at December 31, 2001, recognizing a gain of $272,000 on the transaction in 2002. Accordingly the Company has classified the net book value of the West Wind property of $2.6 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. The Company abandoned its wholly owned subsidiary's Elk Grove, California construction project in December 2001 as a result of a declaration of default on the loan agreement by the construction lender. The Company wrote off $3.8 million in related construction costs, $155,000 in restricted cash deposits, was released from $3.0 million of construction debt and recorded a loss for this project of $0.9 million at December 31, 2001. In May 2002, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the lender and effective June 3, 2002 transferred its ownership interest in the construction project to a third party purchaser identified by the lender. No cash proceeds were generated for the Company as a result of this transaction. The Company and the majority shareholder had provided guarantees of the construction loan to the lender and were relieved of these guarantees upon closing of the transaction. In addition, the settlement agreement provided for the transfer of the Company's South Ogden community to the lender in lieu of foreclosure. The transfer of the South Ogden facility and operations closed May 31, 2002. The Company recorded a gain of $1.1 million in 2002 in connection with this non-cash transaction. The lender had declared the Company in default on the $8.9 million loan for the South Ogden facility in 2001 and accordingly this debt was classified as current at December 31, 2001. Accordingly, the Company has classified the South Ogden property of $8.3 million in current assets at December 31, 2001. In September 2002, the Company sold its 55% co-tenancy interest in its Modesto community to an unrelated third party for a net sales price of $2.8 million. The Company 37 received $1.0 million in cash proceeds, $0.1 million in notes receivable and satisfied $1.7 million of co-tenancy debt which was assumed by the buyer. The Company recorded a gain in 2002 totaling $1.0 million as a result of this transaction. The Company, its majority shareholder and the unrelated 45% co-tenant continue to guarantee the full $3.0 million in debt assumed by the buyer. In September 2002, the Company assigned its lease of its San Antonio community to Emeritus Corporation for $408,000. The Company recorded a gain in 2002 of approximately $327,000 as a result of this transaction. In connection with the assignment the lessor released to the Company the cash deposit held under a letter of credit arrangement in the amount of $741,752. This amount was included in restricted cash at December 31, 2001. Recent Accounting Pronouncements -------------------------------- In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The impact of this pronouncement on the Company's financial statements is not expected to be material. In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects or Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 121 did not address the accounting for a segment of a business accounted for as a discontinued operation under APB Opinion No. 30; accordingly, two accounting models existed for long-lived assets to be disposed of. SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121, for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. In addition, SFAS No. 144 resolves significant implementation issues related to SFAS No. 121. Under SFAS No. 144 the results of operations of a component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale are reported in discontinued operations if (a) the operations and cash flows of the component have been (or will be) eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity as a result of the disposal transaction and (b) the entity will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Accordingly, upon adoption of SFAS 144 the Company's operations associated with and transactions recorded in other income/loss could be reclassified as discontinued operations. In 2002, FASB issued SFAS 145, Rescission of SFAS Nos. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of SFAS 13, and Technical Corrections as of April 2002. This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers. This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain 38 lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company has reviewed this pronouncement and will consider its impact on any relevant transactions. In July 2002, FASB issued SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). This Statement applies to costs associated with an exit activity that does not involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination or with a disposal activity covered by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Those costs include, but are not limited to, the following: a. Termination benefits provided to current employees that are involuntarily terminated under the terms of a benefit arrangement that, in substance, is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred compensation contract (hereinafter referred to as one-time termination benefits), b. Costs to terminate a contract that is not a capital lease, and, c. Costs to consolidate facilities or relocate employees. This Statement does not apply to costs associated with the retirement of a long-lived asset covered by SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The impact of this pronouncement on the Company's financial statements has not yet been determined by the Company. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's earnings are affected by changes in interest rates as a result of its variable rate indebtedness. The Company manages this risk by obtaining fixed rate borrowings when possible. At December 31, 2001, the Company's variable rate borrowings totaled $28.3 million. If market interest rates average one percent more in 2002 than in 2001, the Company's interest expense would increase and income before taxes would decrease by $283,000. These amounts are determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on the Company's outstanding variable rate borrowings as of December 31, 2001, and does not consider changes in the actual level of borrowings which may occur subsequent to December 31, 2001. This analysis also does not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment nor does it consider likely actions that management could take with respect to the Company's financial structure to mitigate the exposure to such a change. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The financial statements required by this item are included on pages F-1 to F-29 of this Report. ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. Not applicable. 39 PART III ITEM 10.

Mr. Bowen continues to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Bowen Companies. Steven L. Gish has served as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary, and Assistant Secretary in addition to serving as a Director of the Company, since August 1995. In 1991 Mr. Gish became the Controller of the "Bowen Companies," a group of companies and businesses owned or controlled by Mr. Bowen, including the predecessor of the Company. Prior to that time, Mr. Gish served as Treasurer and Controller of McCormick and Baxter Creosoting Company, an industrial wood preserving company. Robert G.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS The Company pays each non-employee director $500 for attendance in person at each regular meeting of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Company will reimburse the directors for travel expenses incurred in connection with their activities on behalf of the Company. Each non-employee member of the Board of Directors of the Company is automatically granted an option to purchase 2,000 shares of Common Stock when that person becomes a director. In prior years, each non-employee director was also automatically granted an option to purchase 2,000 additional shares of Common Stock in each subsequent calendar year that the director continued to serve in that capacity. This practice was discontinued in 2001. The exercise price for all automatic grants to non-employee directors was the closing sales price of the Common Stock on the business day immediately preceding the date of grant. 40 SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the Common Stock with the Commission. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are also required by Commission regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a). Based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations from reporting persons, to the Company's knowledge all of the Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to such persons during fiscal year 2001 were complied with on a timely basis.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Mr. Bowen holds a 99 percent general partnership interest in the Regency Park Apartments Limited Partnership ("Regency Partnership"), an Oregon limited partnership from which the Company leased its Regency Park community located in Portland, Oregon through October 31, 2001. Mr. Bowen also holds a 99 percent ownership interest in Sterling Park, L.L.C., a Washington limited liability company from which the Company leased its Sterling Park community located in Redmond, Washington, through October 31, 2001. Mr. Bowen's minor children hold the remaining one percent interest in the Regency Partnership and Sterling Park, L.L.C. Mr. Bowen issued a default notice to the Company as a result of the Company's failure to pay its September and October 2001 lease payments for both Regency Park and Sterling Park. These leases are cross-defaulted. Effective November 1, 2001, the leases were terminated by the lessors as a result of the non-payment of such lease payments. In June 2002, the Company received a letter from its preferred shareholder disputing the termination of these leases and claiming that the terminations are voidable. The lessors have refused to reinstate the leases. Pursuant to the terms of the lease agreements, the Company owes to Mr. Bowen $1,292,199 for deferred lease and interest payments which amounts are subordinate to dividend payments due to the Company's preferred shareholder. Mr. Bowen has a claim against the Company related to the default under the leases. The Company is attempting to negotiate a settlement with Mr. Bowen for the lease cancellation and continues to manage these communities for the majority shareholder. The Company has recorded the past due rent obligations totaling $225,400 for Regency Park and $247,708 for Sterling Park as notes payable accruing interest at 8%, of these amounts $167,108 would be subordinate to dividend payments due to the Company's preferred shareholder. Interest expense of $10,266 was accrued on these notes in 2001. Management fee income totaled $77,296 in 2001 from these communities. The Company recorded a loss of $1.5 million as a result of the cancellation of the leases and write-off of leasehold improvements. In 2001, the Company paid lease payments totaling $544,000 for Regency Park and $680,000 for Sterling Park and accrued deferred lease payments due of $357,600 for Regency Park and $310,832 for Sterling Park. In 2000, the Company paid lease payments totaling $1,070,400 for Regency Park and $1,253,124 for Sterling Park and deferred lease payments due of $257,400 for Regency Park and $233,124 for Sterling Park. For 1999, lease payments were $1,320,536 for Regency Park and $1,486,248 for Sterling Park. Total lease payments deferred at December 31, 2001 were $1,158,956 and interest accruing on these deferrals was $133,243. 45 Mr. Bowen holds a 90 percent interest in Desert Flower, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company that owns the Desert Flower Assisted Living community in Scottsdale, Arizona. Mr. Bowen's minor children hold the remaining ten percent interest in Desert Flower, LLC. In 1999, the Company developed the community and sold it to Desert Flower, LLC in a transaction through which the Company received proceeds of $1.2 million and Desert Flower, LLC assumed $8.8 million in debt. The terms of the agreement contained a guaranteed return which constitutes continuing involvement under SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate and accordingly, the Company accounted for the sale under the deposit method. Under this method, the Company continues to report the asset, depreciation and related debt in the Company's financial statements and does not recognize profit from the sale. In 2001, the continuing involvement was satisfied and the transaction was accounted for as a sale. However, the gain has been deferred at December 31, 2001, and will not be recognized until it is realized from transactions with outside parties. The Company manages the community for Desert Flower, LLC. In 2001, the Company recorded $51,701 as management fee income and $68,977 as a decrease in deposits under sales contract. In 2000, the Company recorded $39,009 as management fee income and $142,070 as an increase in deposits under sales contract. During December 2000, the Company formed with Mr. Bowen a joint venture, Regent/Bowen, LLC, for the purpose of acquiring four communities for $33.9 million. The four communities were previously leased from two separate real estate investment trusts. The Company contributed $0.6 million along with its rights to purchase the four communities for a 75% interest in the joint venture. Mr. Bowen contributed $1.2 million for a 25% interest. In addition, the venture obtained $32.2 million in bank financing and $0.5 million of seller provided financing in order to complete the four acquisitions. On December 26, 2001, the Company and Mr. Bowen agreed to a specified distribution of the assets of Regent/Bowen, LLC upon its dissolution. Accordingly, the venture was dissolved and 100% of the venture's interest in the Santa Cruz and Clovis, California communities was distributed to the Company and 100% of the venture's interest in the Eugene, Oregon community was distributed to Mr. Bowen. The remaining community located in Boise, Idaho and other venture assets were distributed 75% to the Company and 25% to Mr. Bowen. As a result of the dissolution, the Company distributed cash of $165,091 and recorded a $31,783 payable to Mr. Bowen. This amount is included in current liabilities at December 31, 2001. In March 2001, the Company was unable to close two conventional loans with a financial institution in order to refinance two of its California communities. The inability to complete one loan was due in part to a pending accusation against the Company by the State of California Department of Social Services that was subsequently settled in July 2001, see item 3 "Legal Proceedings". Both loans failed to close due to the inability of the Company to obtain minimum excess liability coverage limits of five million dollars. As a result, the Company was unable to recover $195,500 in non-refundable advance deposits. These funds had been advanced directly to the financing company by the majority shareholder and are included in the June 30, 2001 bridge financing demand note payable to the majority shareholder as described below. In March 2001, as part of the financial plan to address the Company's lack of liquidity, Mr. Bowen agreed to provide $1 million in bridge financing (the Bridge Loan) to the Company. Through June 30, 2001, Mr. Bowen had provided cash advances totaling $750,000 under the Bridge Loan and earned fees totaling $15,000 as a result of providing this financing. At June 30, 2001, the advances under the Bridge Loan were combined with additional amounts due to Mr. Bowen and an affiliated Company, Bowen Development Company, along with accrued interest, into a demand note in the amount of $1,259,133. This note was due June 30, 2002, and is past due. The note remains unpaid and the Company is attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. 46 On July 3, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $1 million operating line of credit provided by Mr. Bowen. Through September 7, 2001, the Company drew $1,000,000 under the line. The line of credit bears interest at 18 percent. Mr. Bowen earned a $50,000 fee as a result of providing this financing. The line of credit was due June 30, 2002, and is past due. The line remains unpaid and the Company is attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. On December 27, 2001, the Company sold its Santa Cruz, California property to Cornell Springs Partners, an Oregon joint venture, in which Mr. Bowen directly holds a 40% interest and owns a 95% interest in its General Partner, Cornell Springs Apartments Limited Partnership which holds a 60% interest. The property was sold for a net sales price of $11.7 million. The Company received $5.0 million in cash proceeds of which $2.9 million was retained by the Company and $2.1 million was used to reduce debt after which $6.7 million of debt was assumed by Cornell Springs Partners. Bowen Development Company, which is wholly owned by Mr. Bowen, completed construction of one of the Company's new Regent Court communities in 2000. Additionally, Bowen Development Company completed one more community during 2001. Each of these projects is contracted for a fixed price that includes "contractor's overhead and profit" which is paid on a percentage of completion basis. Bowen Development Company lost approximately $171,000 in 2001 and $414,000 in 2000 and earned fees totaling approximately $526,100 in 1999 on these two projects. The Company's Conflicts Committee or independent directors approved these two contracts after solicitation and review of competitive bids from unaffiliated general contractors. The Company believes that each of the foregoing transactions was on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained from unaffiliated parties in arm's-length transactions; however, there can be no assurance that such is the case. The Company and the Bowen Companies are all controlled by Mr. Bowen. Certain executive officers of the Company, including Messrs. Bowen and Gish, fulfill similar executive functions for other Bowen Companies and spend significant amounts of time on the business of other Bowen Companies. The Company provides management and administrative services to, and from time to time may obtain services or the use of certain equipment from, certain of the Bowen Companies pursuant to an Administrative Services Agreement. Under that agreement, the Bowen Companies and the Company reimburse each other for the actual cost of services received under the Administrative Services Agreement. The Company believes that the sharing of executive management and other resources (such as data processing, accounting, legal, financial, tax, treasury, risk management and human resources) provides benefits to the Company by giving it access to a level of experience and expertise that can only be supported by a larger organization. The Administrative Services Agreement is cancelable by any party, including the Company, on 60 days' notice. The Administrative Services Agreement requires the Bowen Companies to offer first to the Company any opportunities received by or originated with the Bowen Companies relating to the assisted living business. The Administrative Services Agreement also requires all transactions between the Company and the Bowen Companies to be on an arm's length basis containing terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained from an unrelated third party and requires any such transaction to be approved by a majority of the Company's directors unaffiliated with the Bowen Companies. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, Regent charged the Bowen Companies $10,100, 10,300 and $78,000, respectively, under the Administrative Services Agreement. 47 As of November 7, 2002, Mr. Bowen had provided personal guarantees for repayment and performance of covenants on Company loan agreements in an aggregate amount of $46,789,209. Mr. Bowen was paid $120,000 and $65,000 in 2000, and 1999, respectively, in exchange for his personal guaranties. The Company has also guaranteed loans to entities owned by the majority shareholder of which approximately $22.8 million is outstanding at December 31, 2001.

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 of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 14. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. F-6 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Regent Assisted Living, Inc. (the Company) is an owner and operator of private-pay assisted living communities including stand-alone Alzheimer's communities. Assisted living is part of a spectrum of long-term care services that provide a combination of housing, personal services and health care designed to respond to elderly individuals who require assistance with activities of daily living in a manner that promotes maximum independence. THE COMPANY As of December 31, 2001, the Company operated 20 assisted living communities in 7 western states. During 2001, the Company commenced operations at 5 new assisted living communities of which 4 were internally developed (including 1 owned by a joint venture and 2 managed by a third-party) and discontinued operations at 15 communities. As of December 31, 2000, the Company operated 30 assisted living communities in 9 western states. In addition, the Company had five communities under construction and two under development. During 2000, the Company commenced operations at one internally developed stand-alone Alzheimer care community, which is owned by a joint venture, and entered into one additional management contract. As of December 31, 1999, the Company operated 29 assisted living communities in 9 western states. In addition, the Company had four communities under construction and four under development. During 1999, the Company commenced operations at three new internally developed stand-alone Alzheimer's care communities (including two owned by joint ventures) and also opened a new internally developed assisted living community which was sold to the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in a sale-manageback agreement. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries and entities in which it has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company's cash equivalents are in high quality securities placed with institutions with high credit ratings. This investment policy limits the Company's exposure to concentrations of credit risk, and the Company has not experienced any credit related losses. CASH HELD IN WORKING CAPITAL ESCROW Cash is held in the Company's name in bank accounts in the custody of financial institutions. This cash is available for release in accordance with the related agreements. F-7 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) LAND HELD FOR SALE The Company has made one parcel of land and has classified two communities as available for sale at December 31, 2001 and three parcels of land at December 31, 2000. The land was previously acquired for development. Of the land held for sale at December 31, 2000, one parcel was sold in 2001 for net proceeds of $496,225 and one parcel was deeded to a third party in satisfaction of $900,000 of debt. The Company recorded an expense of $633,775 and $791,245 in 2001 and 2000, respectively, to adjust the land held for sale to its estimated fair market value. Of the two communities classified as held for sale at December 31, 2001, one community located in Boise, Idaho was sold in May 2002 for net proceeds of $2.8 million from which the Company paid down $2.4 million of debt that was classified as current at December 31, 2001. The other community located in South Ogden, Utah and classified as held for sale at December 31, 2001, was transferred to the lender on May 31, 2002 in lieu of foreclosure. The lender had declared the Company in default of the $8.9 million loan for this community in 2001 and, accordingly, this debt was classified as current at December 31, 2001. The transfer resulted in the full satisfaction of the related debt (see Notes 5, 14 and 15). RESTRICTED CASH The Company is required to provide letters of credit to lenders in connection with certain financing arrangements. Financial institutions providing the letters of credit have required cash collateral for the letters of credit, totaling $741,752 and $1,718,973 as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Restricted cash also includes a replacement reserve required to be maintained for two of the communities and cash collateral reserve required for one community opened in 2001. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost with depreciation being provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using straight-line and accelerated methods as follows: Buildings 40 years Land improvements 15 years Furniture and equipment 5 - 10 years Interest incurred during construction periods is capitalized as part of the building costs. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; renewals and improvements are capitalized. Upon disposal of property and equipment subject to depreciation, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed and resulting gains and losses are reflected in operations. Management reviews all long-lived assets, other than land held for sale, held and used by the Company for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of the long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows of the individual communities. There have been no significant impairment charges to assets not held for sale. F-8 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES Joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. PRE-OPENING AND START-UP COSTS The Company expenses pre-opening and start-up costs as incurred. DEFERRED GAINS AND DEVELOPMENT FEES Gains realized on the sale and leaseback of the Company's assisted living communities are deferred and credited to income as rent adjustments over the related lease terms. The Company also defers development fees and amortizes them over the term of the related lease. Gains realized on sales or distributions of the Company's assisted living communities to its majority shareholder are deferred and will not be recognized until such buildings are sold to unrelated third parties. As of December 31, 2001, there are deferred gains of $8.7 million and development fees of $0.6 million of which $6.9 million of deferred gains resulted from transactions with the Company's majority shareholder. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from owned or leased assisted living communities is recorded when services are rendered and consist of resident fees for basic housing, personalized health care and management fees from other assisted living communities. INCOME TAXES Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance. COMPUTATION OF PER SHARE AMOUNTS Basic Earnings Per Share (EPS) is calculated using income (loss) attributable to common shares (after deducting preferred dividends) divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated using income (loss) attributable to common shares (after deducting preferred dividends and considering the effects of dilutive common equivalent shares) divided by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options were not included in the calculation because they were antidilutive. F-9 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plan under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted the disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial and Accounting Standards (SFAS) SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 123 requires that companies that do not choose to account for stock-based compensation as prescribed by this statement shall disclose the pro forma effect on earnings per share as if SFAS No. 123 had been adopted. Additionally, certain other disclosures are required with respect to stock compensation and the assumptions used to determine the pro forma effects of SFAS No. 123. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including allowance for doubtful accounts, land held for sale, investments in and advances to joint ventures, income taxes, restructuring, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, construction advances receivable and restricted cash approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these accounts and because amounts are invested in accounts earning market rates of interest. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value inasmuch as the interest rates approximate the current rates available to the Company. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The impact of this pronouncement on the Company's financial statements is not expected to be material. F-10 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED) In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of, and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects or Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 121 did not address the accounting for a segment of a business accounted for as a discontinued operation under APB Opinion No. 30; accordingly, two accounting models existed for long-lived assets to be disposed of. SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121, for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. In addition, SFAS No. 144 resolves significant implementation issues related to SFAS No. 121. Under SFAS No. 144 the results of operations of a component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale are reported in discontinued operations if (a) the operations and cash flows of the component have been (or will be) eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity as a result of the disposal transaction and (b) the entity will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Accordingly, upon adoption of SFAS No. 144 the Company's operations associated with and transactions recorded in previous periods as other income/loss could be reclassified as discontinued operations. In 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of SFAS Nos. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13 and Technical Corrections as of April 2002. This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers. This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company has reviewed this pronouncement and will consider its impact on any relevant transactions. In July 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). F-11 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 1. OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED) This Statement applies to costs associated with an exit activity that does not involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination or with a disposal activity covered by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Those costs include, but are not limited to, the following: o Termination benefits provided to current employees that are involuntarily terminated under the terms of a benefit arrangement that, in substance, is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred compensation contract (hereinafter referred to as one-time termination benefits), o Costs to terminate a contract that is not a capital lease, and o Costs to consolidate facilities or relocate employees. This Statement does not apply to costs associated with the retirement of a long-lived asset covered by SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The impact of this pronouncement on the Company's financial statements has not yet been determined by the Company. 2.

Interest costs paid by the Company in 2001, 2000 and 1999 totaled approximately $7,389,471, $4,211,160 and $4,781,000, respectively. The Company, along with its joint venture partners, has guaranteed construction loans totaling approximately $20.5 million at December 31, 2001. The carrying value of the underlying venture assets that collateralize these loans was $23.7 million at December 31, 2001. The Company has also guaranteed loans to entities owned by the majority shareholder of approximately $22.8 million. As of October 1, 2002, the Company refinanced $15,151,058 of debt at more favorable terms and as a result the Company's guarantees on loans to entities owned by the majority shareholder were reduced to $8.1 million. The carrying value of the underlying entity assets that collateralize these loans was $8.8 million at October 1, 2002. On March 30, 1998, the Company completed a private placement pursuant to which parties purchased an aggregate of $4.5 million of convertible subordinated notes of the Company and agreed to purchase up to an additional aggregate amount of $6 million of convertible subordinated notes. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, a total of $90 thousand and $9 million of convertible notes were issued under this facility, respectively. In December 2001, the Company exchanged its Bakersfield and Vacaville communities for cancellation of $8.9 million in convertible notes. The two properties were acquired subject to $18.3 million in mortgage and local improvement debt, which was assumed by the new owner. The Company recorded a gain of $12.0 million as a result of this non-cash transaction as of December 31, 2001. The remaining outstanding notes bear interest at 7.5% per annum and are convertible into 12,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share with a 10% adjustment for failure to quote on Nasdaq national market. As of December 31, 2001, the exercise price is $6.75 per share as the conversion shares have not been approved for quotation on Nasdaq. Interest on the notes is payable quarterly and all principal and unpaid interest on the notes is due March 31, 2008. The notes may be converted at the option of the holder at any time prior to the maturity date of the notes. The Company also has the right to force a conversion of the notes if the average trading price of the common stock equals or exceeds $12 per share over thirty consecutive trading days. F-15 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 5. LONG-TERM DEBT, CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES AND DEPOSITS UNDER SALES CONTRACT (CONTINUED) During September 1999, the Company sold to its majority shareholder its Scottsdale, Arizona community under terms of a sale-manageback agreement. The terms of the agreement contained a guaranteed return, which constitutes continuing involvement under SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, and, accordingly, the Company accounted for the sale under the deposit method. Under this method, the Company continues to report the asset, depreciation and related debt in the Company's financial statements and does not recognize profit from the sale. The Company received $1.2 million in sales proceeds and the purchaser assumed $8.8 million of underlying debt. These amounts are recorded as liabilities captioned "deposits under sales contract" in the Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2000. The net book value of the asset subject to the sales contract totaled $8.9 million at December 31, 2000. In 2001, the continuing involvement criteria was satisfied and the transaction was accounted for as a sale. The realized gain has been deferred and will be recognized when the building is sold to an unrelated third party. The Company had been declared in default under terms of an $8.9 million construction note payable to a bank related to its South Ogden, Utah community and, accordingly, such amount has been included in current portion of long-term debt at December 31, 2001. The community was transferred to the bank as part of a settlement agreement in lieu of foreclosure in May 2002, which resulted in the full satisfaction of the related debt. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related South Ogden, Utah property of $8.3 million under the caption land and property held for sale at December 31, 2001 (see Notes 1, 14 and 15). 6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting any such series, and the preferences, limitations and relative rights, including the dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption price or prices, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any series, without any further vote or action by the shareholders of the Company. On December 16, 1996, the Company issued 1,283,785 shares of Series A preferred stock and 382,882 shares of Series B preferred stock (collectively, the Preferred Stock) for a total of $9,950,000. In connection with this transaction, a warrant was issued to the holders of the preferred stock for $50,000, allowing the warrant holder to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share. Each share of preferred stock is convertible into 1.091 shares of common stock. The Series A preferred shares are convertible at any time at the option of the holder. The Series B preferred shares are convertible upon the occurrence of certain "Conversion Events" as defined in the Company's amended articles of incorporation. F-16 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) Dividends on the preferred stock accrue at an annual rate ranging from 6% to 12% of the liquidation value of $5.50 per common equivalent share. The total liquidation value of the preferred stock at December 31, 2001 was $10,000,000. In connection with the sale of the preferred stock, the Company also entered into a stockholders' agreement with the preferred shareholder and the founding shareholder regarding the voting and disposition of shares held by the preferred shareholder and the founding shareholder, and an agreement providing the preferred shareholder with rights to require the Company to register shares of common stock upon conversion of the preferred stock. 7. STOCK OPTIONS 1995 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN The Company adopted a stock incentive plan (the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan), which provides for the award of incentive stock options to key employees and the award of nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, bonus rights and other incentive grants to employees, independent contractors and consultants. A total of 800,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan. As of December 31, 2001, options to purchase 247,000 shares had been granted and were outstanding pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan. As of November 7, 2002, options to purchase 235,200 shares were still outstanding. The 1995 Stock Incentive Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, which has the authority, subject to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan, to determine the persons to whom options or rights may be granted, the exercise price and number of shares subject to each option or right, the character of grant, the time or times at which all or a portion of each option or right may be exercised and certain other provisions of each option or right. Options are exercisable over a period of time in accordance with the terms or option agreements entered into at the time of grant. Generally, options expire 10 years from date of grant and are expected to become exercisable over a five-year period. Options granted under the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan are generally nontransferable by the optionee and, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, must be exercised by the optionee during the period of the optionee's employment or service with the Company or within a specified period following termination of employment or service. Non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company are automatically granted an option to purchase 2,000 shares of common stock when they become a director. In prior years each non-employee director was automatically granted an option to purchase 2,000 additional shares of common stock in each subsequent calendar year that the director continued to serve in that capacity. This practice was discontinued in 2001. F-17 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 7. STOCK OPTIONS (CONTINUED) OPTIONS GRANTED BY SHAREHOLDER In August 1995, the Company's founding shareholder granted options to purchase an aggregate of 170,000 shares of common stock, of which 165,000 were to certain officers of the Company. During 1999, options for 85,000 of these shares were cancelled. These options vest and become immediately exercisable, and are subject to the terms of option agreements that contain terms similar to those governing the options granted under the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan. A summary of the Company's stock option activity and related information for the years ended December 31 are presented below:

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2001:

The total value of options granted during 2001, 2000 and 1999 was computed as approximately $1,200, $203,800 and $605,300, respectively, which would be amortized on a pro forma basis over the vesting period of the options. F-18 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 7. STOCK OPTIONS (CONTINUED) OPTIONS GRANTED BY SHAREHOLDER (CONTINUED) The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123. The following table presents the Company's net loss and loss per share, assuming compensation cost had been determined based on the fair value at the date of grant, and recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the options, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123:

For purposes of the above pro forma information, the fair value of each option grant was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Effective October 31, 2001, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the real estate investment trust (REIT) owner of four of its leased communities under a master lease to resolve events of default primarily due to failure of the Company to pay its lease payments. The settlement included transfer of the operations of the communities to new operators and a note payable to the REIT for past due rent obligations totaling $585,709.

Effective November 1, 2001, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the REIT owner of five of its leased communities that were cross-defaulted to resolve events of default primarily due to failure of the Company to pay its lease payments. The settlement included transfer of the operations of the communities to new operators and a note payable to the REIT for past due rent obligations. The note amount was combined with additional amounts outstanding under an existing note payable to the REIT to total $650,000. The new note provides for payment of quarterly interest at 8% and monthly installments beginning in December 2002 of $15,868 including interest at 8% and is due November 2006. The Company's majority shareholder guaranteed this note. The Company recorded losses totaling $343,000 as a result of this transaction as of December 31, 2001. CAPITAL LEASES During 1996, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction with a real estate investment trust (REIT) for the Santa Cruz, California community. The total consideration for the sale was $8,300,000, which was recorded as a capital lease obligation by the Company. The Company repurchased this community from the lessor on December 26, 2000. In December 2001, this community was sold to an entity primarily owned by the majority shareholder (see Note 10). F-20 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 8.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the deferred tax assets at December 31 are as follows:

At December 31, 2001, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $17,484,270 and $14,238,696, respectively, which are available to offset future federal and state taxable income, if any, through 2020. The Company has established a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset as the ultimate realization is uncertain. 10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Certain executive officers of the Company fulfill similar executive functions for other companies, which are owned or controlled by the majority shareholder. F-22 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 10.

Such reimbursements totaled approximately $10,100, $10,300 and $78,000 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS During 2001 and 2000, the construction of two of the Company's new communities was performed pursuant to fixed price construction contracts with a company owned by the majority shareholder. On a percentage of completion basis, the construction company lost $171,000 in 2001and $414,000 in 2000 and earned fees totaling approximately $526,100 in 1999. GUARANTY FEES In 2000, the Company paid fees totaling $120,000 to its majority shareholder for guaranteeing two of the Company's construction loans. In 1999, $65,000 was paid to the majority shareholder for guaranteeing three of the Company's loans. There were no guaranty fees paid to the majority shareholder in 2001. COLLATERAL At December 31, 2000, the Company's majority shareholder provided a $1,000,000 cash deposit to a lender as additional collateral with respect to a real estate loan. The Company reimbursed the majority shareholder approximately $17,700 for the carrying cost of the above mentioned deposit in 2001. The lender released this additional collateral requirement on July 2, 2001. LEASE ARRANGEMENTS Through October 31, 2001, the Company leased two assisted living communities from entities controlled by the majority shareholder. Effective November 1, 2001, the leases were terminated by the lessors due to non-payment of the September and October 2001 lease payments. These leases were cross-defaulted. The Company is attempting to negotiate a settlement with the lessors. The Company recorded a loss of $1.5 million as a result of the cancellation of the leases and write-off of leasehold improvements. The Company has recorded the past due rent obligations in the amount of $473,108 as notes payable, accruing interest at 8%, of which $167,108 would be subordinated to dividend payments due the Company's preferred shareholder. Interest expense of $10,266 was accrued on these notes during 2001. The Company continues to manage the communities on behalf of the lessors and recorded management fees totaling $77,296 in 2001 from these two communities. Lease payments totaled $1,224,000, $2,323,524 and $2,806,784 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. F-23 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED) LEASE ARRANGEMENTS (CONTINUED) Lease payments deferred in 2001 and 2000 were $668,432 and $490,524, respectively. Total lease payments deferred at December 31, 2001 were $1,158,956. Total interest expense of $113,543 was accrued on these lease deferrals during 2001 and $19,700 was accrued during 2000. Total deferred interest payable on these deferred lease payments was $133,243 at December 31, 2001. The deferred lease and interest payments are subordinate to dividend payments due to the Company's preferred shareholder. MANAGEMENT FEES In 2001, the Company recorded $51,701 as management fee income and $68,977 as a decrease in deposits under sales contract in connection with a sale manageback arrangement related to a community owned by its majority shareholder. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS In March 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved the conversion of $750,000 of accrued dividends due to the preferred shareholder and $507,877 of deferred lease payments due to the majority shareholder into 857,143 and 580,431 shares of common stock, respectively. Such amounts were classified as noncurrent liabilities at December 31, 2000. In connection with this transaction, the preferred shareholder agreed to waive its dividend for a period of two years and the majority shareholder agreed to provide $1,000,000 in bridge financing (the Bridge Loan). The Company and the preferred shareholder did not complete the conversion into common stock and did not negotiate the final terms and conditions for the dividend waiver. The Company's Articles of Incorporation and state law prohibit the current payment of the preferred dividend since in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, the payment of the preferred dividend would jeopardize the ongoing viability of the Company and potentially result in its insolvency. Accordingly, the preferred dividends are classified as long-term liabilities at December 31, 2001. The deferred lease payments are subordinate to the preferred dividends and, accordingly, they are classified as noncurrent liabilities at December 31, 2001. Through June 30, 2001, the majority shareholder provided cash advances totaling $750,000 under the Bridge Loan. The majority shareholder earned a $15,000 fee as a result of providing this financing. At June 30, 2001, such advances were combined with additional outstanding amounts due to the majority shareholder and an affiliated company, along with accrued interest, into a demand note in the amount of $1,259,133. At December 31, 2001, the note plus accrued interest totaled $1,368,716. The note was due on June 30, 2002 and is past due. As of November 7, 2002 this note remains unpaid and the Company is attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. On July 3, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a $1,000,000 operating line of credit provided by the majority shareholder. The Company drew $1,000,000 under the line in 2001. The line of credit bears interest at 18%. The majority shareholder earned a $50,000 fee as a result of providing this financing. At December 31, 2001, the note payable plus F-24 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED) SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS (CONTINUED) accrued interest totaled $1,076,981. The line was due June 30, 2002 and is past due. As of November 7, 2002 this note remains unpaid and the Company is attempting to negotiate extensions on these payment obligations. INTEREST PAID TO RELATED-PARTY Interest paid to a construction company owned by the majority shareholder was $18,900 and $49,000 in 2000 and 1999, respectively. OTHER During December 2000, the Company formed a joint venture with the majority shareholder for the purpose of acquiring four communities for $33.9 million. The four communities, including one formerly accounted for as a capitalized lease, were previously leased from two separate real estate investment trusts. The Company contributed $0.6 million along with its rights to purchase the four communities for a 75% interest in the joint venture. The majority shareholder contributed $1.2 million for a 25% interest. In addition, the venture obtained $32.2 million in bank financing and $0.5 million of seller provided financing in order to complete the four acquisitions. On December 26, 2001, the Company and the majority shareholder agreed to a specified distribution of the assets of the joint venture upon its dissolution. Accordingly, the venture was dissolved and 100% of the venture's interest in the Santa Cruz and Clovis, California communities was distributed to the Company and 100% of the venture's interest in the Eugene, Oregon community was distributed to the majority shareholder. The remaining community located in Boise, Idaho and other venture assets were distributed 75% to the Company and 25% to the majority shareholder. As a result of the dissolution, the Company distributed cash of $165,091 and recorded a $31,783 payable to the majority shareholder. This amount is included in current liabilities at December 31, 2001. On December 27, 2001, the Company sold to its majority shareholder its Santa Cruz, California community for a net sales price of $11.7 million. The Company received $5.0 million in cash proceeds, of which $2.9 million was retained by the Company, and $2.1 million was used to pay down debt after which $6.7 million of debt was assumed by the majority shareholder. The Company recorded a gain of $2.5 million on the transaction, which has been deferred at December 31, 2001, in accordance with SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, which requires that no profit shall be recognized until it is realized from transactions with outside parties.

Employer contributions made by the Company totaled approximately $277,153, $154,166 and $137,100 in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 12. CONTINGENCIES The Company has been burdened by the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer, Reliance Insurance Company (Reliance). Reliance provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. With Reliance now in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must now defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. As of November 7, 2002, there are several such claims that have been filed against the Company. In addition, the Company is involved in various other lawsuits and claims, including various employment matters arising in the normal course of business. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and is vigorously working to settle the matters. However unfavorable outcomes of these claims may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and liquidity. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to settle these claims at a reasonable cost or at all. Even if the Company is successful in defending itself, the attorney fees associated with a defense could jeopardize the ability of the Company to provide a defense. If a judgment is rendered against the Company, the Company may be forced to pursue a court-supervised reorganization. At December 31, 2001, the Company has accrued $1.2 million, which represents amounts paid in 2002 or agreed to be paid for settled claims and an estimate for claims still pending. The California Department of Social Services filed an accusation against the Company on December 15, 2000 seeking to revoke licenses for eight of the Company's assisted living communities in the state of California. On June 28, 2001, the parties reached a final settlement on the matter. As part of the settlement, the Company agreed to subject three communities to certain conditions of probation, including the maintenance of high quality of care and training standards that exceed regulatory requirements. The Company voluntarily put into place many of these standards prior to the settlement. At November 7, 2002, the Company no longer operates the three communities referred to above. The majority shareholder has a claim against the Company for additional salary for 2001 of $226,000 plus a bonus of 25%. The Board of Directors has not agreed that these amounts are payable and, accordingly, these amounts have not been accrued at December 31, 2001. F-26 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 13. OTHER INCOME, NET In 2001, the Company recorded losses of $0.5 million as a result of settlement agreements with the owners of nine of its properties for lease cancellations and exchanged its Bakersfield and Vacaville, California communities for cancellation of convertible notes, recognizing a $12.0 million gain. The Company recorded a $1.5 million loss from the cancellation of leases with entities owned by the majority shareholder. The Company also assigned its leasehold interest in its three Wyoming communities for a $0.1 million gain. In 1999, the Company sold a 45 percent co-tenancy interest in its Modesto, California community. The Company recognized a $0.5 million gain as a result of the sale. 14. FINANCIAL RESULTS AND LIQUIDITY From 1995 to 2000, the Company's revenues increased from $12.6 million to $64.9 million. However, in connection with the opening and lease up of its newly developed communities, the Company incurred substantial operating losses. Although initial operating losses were anticipated, the Company did not foresee the extent of such losses. The Company attributes these losses to the extended time required to fill its communities and the difficulty in maintaining occupancy, which is primarily the result of competitive factors. In 2001, as a result of continuing operating losses and difficulties in obtaining operating licenses for certain of its new buildings, the Company was unable to meet certain of its lease obligations, discontinued all development and construction activities, reduced the number of communities it operates, downsized its workforce and entered into an agreement whereby the Company subcontracted a substantial portion of the management duties for its communities to another unrelated assisted living company. As of December 31, 2001, the Company had reduced its operations to 20 communities with a resident capacity of 2,067 beds. As of December 31, 2001, the Company's working capital decreased to a deficit of $5.9 million and its accumulated deficit increased to $35.0 million. Included in current liabilities are payables to the Company's majority shareholder of $2.6 million. Also included in current liabilities, is $8.9 million in debt related to the Company's South Ogden, Utah community, which was opened in January 2001. The Company had been declared in default under terms of the loan agreement and, accordingly, the amount due has been included in current portion of long-term debt at December 31, 2001. In May 2002, the Company transferred the South Ogden, Utah community to the bank in full satisfaction of the related debt. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related South Ogden, Utah property of $8.3 million in current assets as assets held for sale at December 31, 2001. Commencing January 1, 2002, the Company subcontracted with an unrelated assisted living company to provide operations management, consulting and accounting services to its assisted living communities. Accordingly, the Company implemented a corporate restructuring plan and laid-off a significant portion of its corporate workforce at December 31, 2001 and in the first quarter of 2002. The Company continues to provide an oversight management role, partnership administration and asset management services, including continued responsibility for placement of insurance and debt financing arrangements. F-28 REGENT ASSISTED LIVING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED 14. FINANCIAL RESULTS AND LIQUIDITY (CONTINUED) The Company anticipates that its cash requirements during 2002 will exceed the cash provided by operations. The Company is exposed to significant liability losses that are uninsured as a result of the bankruptcy of its former professional liability claims insurer that provided professional liability claims insurance for the Company from March 1, 1998 to March 1, 2001. With the insurance company now in liquidation and no longer able to pay any losses or claims expenses, the Company must defend itself from all claims in which it previously would have been protected through its insurance program. Given Regent's current liquidity situation, the Company is considering various alternatives that may include the disposition of selected assets and/or the merger or sale of the remaining assets of the business. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these pursuits. The matters discussed above raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In February 2002, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement with the REIT owner of its Scottsdale, Arizona Alzheimer community and its assisted living community located in Folsom, California. The Company's leases for these two communities were canceled and the Company was released from all liability thereunder, including any past due obligations to pay rent under the leases and any real estate taxes in excess of $25,000. In 2002, the Company realized a reduction in current liabilities that were recorded at December 31, 2001, of approximately $217,200 as a result of this transaction.

The Company received $2.8 million in sales proceeds and paid down $2.4 million in debt, recognizing a gain of $272,000 on the transaction. The Company abandoned its wholly-owned subsidiary's Elk Grove, California construction project in December 2001 as a result of a declaration of default on the loan agreement by the construction lender. The Company wrote-off $3.8 million in related construction costs and $155,000 in restricted cash deposits, was released from $3.0 million of construction debt and recorded a loss for this project of $0.9 million at December 31, 2001.

Accordingly, the related South Ogden, Utah property of $8.3 million was classified as current at December 31, 2001. On September 3, 2002, the Company sold its 55% co-tenancy interest in its Modesto community to an unrelated third party for a net sales price of $2.8 million.
