Exhibit 99.1

RISK FACTORS

Risks that might Delay or Reduce our Liquidating Distributions

While we have recorded the value of the Resort and our remaining our golf courses at our best estimates of fair value as of March 24, 2005, we cannot
provide assurances that these estimates reflect actual current market value for the applicable courses. As a result, at the present time we do not believe that we are able to reliably project the
amount of the total liquidating distributions we will make to the holders of our common stock over the remainder of the orderly liquidation period. At a future time, it may be possible to reliably
project the amount of total liquidating distributions if the quality and reliability of information necessary to make reliable estimates of cash flow and, correspondingly, value, become more reliable.
At this time we can provide no assurances that the quality and reliability of such necessary information will develop to the necessary degree.

In
our 2002 annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2003, we reported an updated projected range of liquidating distributions to the holders of our common
stock and an updated projection as to when liquidating distributions to the holders of our common stock might commence. We refer to these projections as our Updated 2003 Range. Our expectations at
that time regarding the amount of liquidating distributions we would then make and when we would make them were based on many factors, including input from our independent financial advisors and our
estimates and assumptions at that time. We face the risk that actual events might prove to be less favorable than those estimates and assumptions. Several important factors that could cause such a
difference are described below. Although we attempted to account for the following risks during the preparation of the Updated 2003 Range, we might have underestimated their effects, and any such
underestimate may prove substantial. As a result, the actual amount of liquidating distributions we may pay to the holders of our common stock might be substantially less than our Updated 2003 Range
of projected liquidating
distributions. We also face the risk that any underestimation of the effects of these risks could result in no liquidating distributions being made by us to our stockholders. Any liquidating
distributions that are ultimately available might be paid substantially later than projected in the Updated 2003 Range. Factors that could cause actual payments to be later or lower than the Updated
2003 Range include the matters discussed below.



In October 2003, we received from the Resort's operator, Westin, an updated forecast of the net cash flow expected to be generated by the Resort in the
fourth quarter 2003 and for the 2004 fiscal year. Westin's October 2003 forecast was materially less favorable than Westin's earlier forecasts for the same periods, which were among the factors
considered by us when arriving at the prior valuation of the Resort. The decline in the Westin forecast resulted primarily from fewer than anticipated group bookings in the fourth quarter, the
assumption that this trend would continue into 2004 and uncertainty regarding whether the Settlement Agreement and an amended management agreement would be signed. In response to Westin's forecast and
our inquiries into Westin's budget methodologies and the basis for Westin's projections, as of September 30, 2003, we reduced our estimate of the Resort's fair value at the end of the holding
period to $44.24 million from $60 million.

After
we took possession of the Resort on July 15, 2004 pursuant to our Settlement Agreement with Westin and our former borrower, we were required to allocate the settlement
amount among the different asset categories on our balance sheet as of the date that we assumed ownership of the Resort.

As
part of this allocation process, we engaged the same third-party experts that prepared the asset study that we commissioned in July of 2003 to update this study. The recently completed study
included an estimate of the fair value of the Resort's real estate operating as a golf resort and an estimate of the fair value of the Resort's identified contractual intangible assets,
non-contractual but identifiable intangible items. We updated the estimated fair market value in continued use of the Resort's furniture, fixtures and equipment, or FF&E, inventory from
the value obtained in July 2003 by giving consideration to new FF&E purchased since July 2003 instead of retaining a third party expert for this purpose. We believe this is a reasonable
approach. The estimate of the fair market value of each of these asset groups are based on facts and circumstances known to us at this time. Based on this updated asset study and other facts and
circumstances known to us at the date that we took title to the Resort, for purposes of our September 30, 2004 balance sheet, we estimated the fair value of the Resort asset under the "orderly
liquidation" strategy to be $39.24 million. Accordingly, for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, we recorded a write-down of $5.0 million against the then
participating mortgage's December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2004 value of $44.24 million. This estimated fair value is lower than the $60 million valuation recorded in periods
prior to September 30, 2003 and is subject to certain assumptions discussed elsewhere in this report. We have identified our valuation of the Resort asset as a critical accounting estimate, and
it is discussed under the caption"Application of Critical Accounting Policies."

While
we have obtained additional information regarding the valuation of the Resort as a result of the recently completed valuation study by our independent financial advisor, the
valuation of the Resort is still subject to uncertainty. We do not believe we are able at this time to project the amount of the total liquidating distributions we will make to our common stockholders
over the remainder of the orderly liquidating period because we have not been able to obtain sufficiently stable financial data with respect to the Resort's performance to establish a reliable
valuation of the Resort. The factors giving rise to this uncertainty include, without limitation, the following:

---





As
a result of the foregoing, at the present time we will refrain from either making any adjustments (positive or negative) to any earlier reported range of distributions or proposing a
new range. We may, however, be able to do so in future periods in the event that the quality and reliability of all information necessary to make estimates of cash flow and, correspondingly, value
become more reliable. In the event that additional valuation information becomes available, it is possible that any difference in the valuation of the Resort, the valuation of our other assets, or the
magnitude of our
liabilities, would cause the lower end of the Updated 2003 Range to decline. You should not assume that the liquidating distributions have not declined, perhaps in material amounts, from the
historical projections earlier provided.

We
do not rule out the possibility that we might sell our interest in the Resort (either directly or by way of another exit transaction) prior to the December 31, 2005 end of the
anticipated holding period in response to any reasonable offer, even if the offered amount is less than $39.24 million if, after consideration of the facts and circumstances at that time, our
board determines that the sale or other exit transaction would be in the best interest of our stockholders. However, we cannot predict what future events, factors or outcomes might cause our board to
cease pursuing the orderly liquidation strategy in favor of a more immediate sale. It is also possible that our board might decide to extend the currently contemplated holding period of this asset
past 2005 if it determines that such an extension may allow us to realize a better recovery on the asset or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders. In any case, we face the risk that
our efforts to preserve the value of the Resort might be unsuccessful and we might ultimately sell our interest in the Resort for less than our last estimate of its fair value. Accordingly, our
assessment of the Resort's fair value may change at some future date, perhaps in a material adverse manner, based on facts and circumstances at that time, and the Resort's value may again be
written-down.



On March 24, 2005, we executed a letter with the holder of our series A preferred stock, AEW, in which AEW agreed that it will execute for our
benefit an option to purchase, on or before November 30, 2005, the 800,000 shares of our series A preferred stock held by AEW, including, without limitation, all of AEW's rights to due
and unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid dividends and liquidation preferences payable in respect of such series A preferred shares as of our exercise of the option. The exercise price of this
option is approximately $24,914,000. This exercise price excludes dividends that would accrue to the series A preferred stock during 2004 and subsequent periods. As a result, we have not
recorded a liability for the accrual of 2004 and 2005 quarterly preferred dividends in our net assets based upon our expectation that AEW will execute an option agreement in our favor pursuant to our
March 24, 2005 letter with AEW and that we will exercise that option prior to November 30, 2005.

On July 15, 2004, we entered a Settlement Agreement relating to our June 1997 $79.0 million loan to our former borrower. This loan was
secured by a mortgage on the Resort. As part of the Settlement Agreement, we assumed certain financial obligations of the borrower, such as refurbishment expenses paid by the condominium owners, a
modified termination rights fee and outstanding golf facility management fees payable to Troon. As the owner of the Resort, we are responsible for any negative cash flow associated with its ownership
and operation. As a result of the assumption of these liabilities and our responsibility for any negative cash flow, we face the risk that our ultimate liabilities and expenditures might be greater
than expected. In that case, our cash available for distribution and the ultimate amount of our liquidating distributions to the holders of our common stock could be less than our expectations.

Although
we obtained ownership of the Resort following the end of the second quarter of 2004, we still face the difficult task of seeking to revitalize its revenues. As a result of these
challenges, our recovery with respect to this asset might be significantly delayed, and the proceeds that we ultimately receive upon a sale of the Resort might be less than our current estimate of the
Resort's fair value. In the event of this result our liquidating distributions to holders of our common stock would be reduced. Our estimate of the Resort's fair value, as recorded on our books for
accounting purposes, is based on forward-looking estimates which are subject to change. We can provide no assurance of success of the Settlement Agreement or the future success of the Resort.



Extraordinary corporate actions, such as our plan of liquidation, often lead to securities class action lawsuits and derivative litigation being filed against
companies such as ours. We became involved in this type of litigation in connection with our plan of liquidation (and the transactions associated with it) in a legal action we refer to as the Crossleylitigation. During the second quarter of 2003, theCrossleyclaim was dismissed with prejudice
on our motion for summary judgment, which means that the lawsuit was dismissed and the plaintiff will not be allowed to refile the claim, although the plaintiff could appeal the dismissal. We
subsequently entered into a non-monetary settlement with the plaintiff whereby the plaintiff agreed not to appeal the dismissal and we agreed not to seek reimbursement of our legal costs
from the plaintiff. Even though theCrossleylitigation has been dismissed, we face the risk that other claims might be brought against us. Any such
litigation would likely be expensive and, even if we ultimately prevail, the process would divert management's attention from implementing the plan of liquidation and otherwise operating our business.
If we do not prevail in any such litigation, we might be liable for damages. It is not possible to predict the amount of such
potential damages, if any, but they might be significant. Any damage liability would reduce our cash available for distribution and the ultimate amount of our liquidating distributions to holders of
our common stock.



Our ability to complete any golf course sales which may become subject to pending contracts (of which we do not have any as of the date of this filing), or
letters of intent (of which we do not have any as of the date of this filing), and to locate buyers for our other interests in golf courses and negotiate and complete any such sales depend to a large
extent upon the experience and abilities of

4

---



our
two most senior executives, W. Bradley Blair, II, our chief executive officer and president, and Scott D. Peters, our senior vice president and chief financial officer, and
their experience and familiarity with our assets, our counter-parties and the market for golf course sales. Mr. Blair and Mr. Peters are currently serving us on a reduced schedule basis.
We believe our liquidation has progressed to the point that the resignation of one, but not both, of our executives would not likely cause significant adverse consequences. However, a loss of the
services of both of these individuals could materially harm our ability to complete the plan of liquidation in a reasonably expeditious manner and our prospects of selling our assets at the best
potential prices.

We
face the risk that both of our key executives might resign. In particular, our payment in full of our outstanding obligations under our credit facility, which occurred in the second
quarter of 2003, was the last remaining milestone under Mr. Blair's amended employment agreement and, therefore, his performance bonus is now due and payable (but unpaid) by us. Accordingly,
our executives might conclude that they no longer have meaningful financial incentives to remain employed with us, especially considering the reduction in their annual salaries. Following the
disposition of our Sandpiper property in mid-2003 and the corresponding reduction in demands on Mr. Peters' time, the compensation committee of our board of directors determined
that management should seek to negotiate a reduced time commitment and a reduced salary arrangement with Mr. Peters and, therefore, we entered into an amended and restated employment agreement
with Mr. Peters on August 29, 2003. Under this amended and restated employment agreement, Mr. Peters is expected to devote substantially less hours per calendar quarter to us.
Mr. Peters continues to serve as our senior vice president, secretary and chief financial officer, and as a member of our board of directors. Additionally, Mr. Peters is presently
entitled to the balance of his remaining milestone payment because all golf course sales milestones under his amended and restated employment agreement have been achieved. On June 30, 2004, we
amended the employment agreement of Mr. Peters to extend the termination date of that agreement from June 30, 2004 to March 31, 2005. Further, on March 30, 2005, we amended
the employment agreement of Mr. Peters to extend the termination date of that agreement from March 31, 2005 to March 31, 2006. On March 22, 2004, as a result of our
expectation that the amount of time Mr. Blair would be required to devote to us and to our business would be reduced, we entered into a letter agreement with Mr. Blair providing, among
other things, for Mr. Blair to receive a reduced base
salary from us beginning on April 1, 2004. From April 1, 2004 until December 31, 2004, Mr. Blair received 75% of his base salary as of March 31, 2004 as a result of
a corresponding reduction in the amount of time that he is required to devote to us. Effective January 1, 2005, Mr. Blair is receiving a further reduced annual base salary equal to 50%
of his base salary as of March 31, 2004 as a result of a corresponding reduction in the amount of time that he is required to devote to us.

Mr. Peters
has accepted a full-time position as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at Triple Net Properties. Mr. Peters continues to serve
as our Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President, and Secretary through March 31, 2006, pursuant to the terms of his amended and restated employment agreement. In light of his time
commitments to Triple Net Properties, we cannot guarantee that Mr. Peters will accept an expanded role should Mr. Blair leave our employment.

The
potential resignation of Mr. Blair poses a relatively greater risk at this time in light of the fact that the amount of time that Mr. Peters is required to commit to us
is less than the amount of time that Mr. Blair is required to commit to us. If Mr. Blair were to resign, we would likely seek to hire a replacement for Mr. Blair. The cost that we
incur to replace Mr. Blair would likely depend upon our determination of the experience and skills that must be possessed by his replacement in light of our financial condition, our assets
remaining to be liquidated, and the complexity of any issues bearing on us and the liquidation at that time.

Our
ability to complete the plan of liquidation in a timely manner also depends on our ability to retain our key non-executive employees. Those employees may seek other
employment rather than

5

remaining
with us throughout the process of liquidation, even though they generally would lose their eligibility for severance payments by resigning. If we are unable to retain enough qualified staff
to complete our plan of liquidation in a reasonably expeditious manner, liquidating distributions might be delayed or reduced.



In addition to the four golf courses at the Resort, we have two other properties (or three eighteen-hole equivalent golf courses), none of which are
currently subject to sale agreements or letters of intent. In calculating our projected liquidating distributions, we assumed that we would be able to find buyers for the Resort and our other
remaining golf courses at purchase prices equal to our estimates of their respective fair market values. However, our estimates of the sales prices of the Resort and our other remaining golf courses
may exceed the prices we eventually receive. Our
independent financial advisor's March 18, 2003 analysis (upon which our 2003 Updated Range was based in part, and upon which you should not rely at this point) is neither an appraisal nor an
opinion. Assumptions underlying our 2003 Updated Range might prove to be incorrect and, therefore, our projections might overstate the ultimate net proceeds we will receive. In particular, we recently
received the results of an updated study of the Resort's value from our independent financial advisor which resulted in a $5.0 million write-down in the value of that asset.
Further, in order to find buyers in a reasonably expeditious manner, we might be required to lower our asking price for the Resort and remaining courses below our estimate of their fair value. If we
are not able to find buyers for these assets in a reasonably expeditious manner, or if we have overestimated the sales prices we will ultimately receive, our liquidating distributions to the holders
of our common stock will be significantly delayed or reduced.

At
the present time, we do not have indications from the market as to a potential sales value for the Resort. Therefore, we do not believe we are able to reliably project the amount of
the total liquidating distributions we will make to the holders of our common stock over the remainder of the orderly liquidation period. Accordingly, you should not rely on the valuations or ranges
earlier provided as representative of our current views on the subject.



In some golf course sales, we may agree to receive promissory notes from the buyer as a portion of the purchase price. Promissory notes are often illiquid. If we
are not able to sell the promissory note without a great discount, or in the case of a short-term note, if we hold it to maturity and the maker ultimately defaults, our liquidating
distributions might be reduced.



The value of our interests in golf courses might be reduced, and substantially so, by a number of factors that are beyond our control, including the following:



6

---





Any
reduction in the value of our golf courses would make it more difficult for us to sell our assets for the amounts and within the time-frames that we have estimated.
Reductions in the amounts that we receive when we sell our assets could decrease or delay our payment of liquidating distributions to our stockholders, perhaps in substantial ways.



Before making the final liquidating distribution to the holders of our stock, we will need to pay all of our transaction costs pertaining to the liquidation and
all valid claims of our creditors, which we expect will be substantial. Our board may also decide to acquire one or more additional insurance policies covering unknown or contingent claims against us,
including, without limitation, additional directors' and officers' liability insurance, for which we would pay an additional premium based upon market prices prevailing at the time of any such
purchase. We have estimated such transaction costs in calculating the amount of our projected liquidating distributions. To the extent that we have underestimated costs and expenses in calculating our
historical projections, our actual aggregate liquidating distributions will be lower than we have historically projected, and perhaps by substantial amounts. As earlier discussed, we have not updated
our historical projections.



In order to maintain our historical qualification as a REIT, at least 95% of our annual gross income was required to be derived from real property rents, mortgage
interest and a few other categories of income specified in the tax code, which importantly do not include income from golf course operations. Although we did not affirmatively intend to revoke our
REIT status, business conditions required us to begin operating golf courses in 2000 and the percentage of our gross income supplied by such operations increased in 2001, and surpassing the 5% ceiling
in 2002. Consequently, we did not meet the 95% gross income test in 2002. Failure to meet this test caused us to fail to qualify as a REIT for the year 2002, which will prevent us from
re-qualifying for at least four years. Accordingly, we have been subject to federal income tax as a regular corporation since our failure to qualify as a REIT.

7

---



However, our operations resulted in a net operating loss for income tax purposes during 2002, 2003 and 2004. Therefore, no income tax will be due on our operating income/loss or proceeds
from the sale of properties that occurred during 2002, 2003 and 2004. At the present time, we believe we have sufficient net operating loss carryovers to offset any gains we might recognize through
our liquidation. If we were to recognize taxable gains in a year before consideration of net operating loss carryovers, we could be subject to alternative minimum tax. Generally, for tax years ending
after December 31, 2002, the use of net operating loss carryovers to reduce alternative minimum taxable income is limited to 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. Therefore, tax at a rate
of 20% could be imposed on our alternative minimum taxable income that cannot be reduced by net operating loss carryovers. The resulting tax liabilities would reduce the amount of cash available for
liquidating distributions.



We entered into a voting agreement with the holder of our preferred stock, AEW, pursuant to which the holder agreed to vote in favor of our plan of liquidation.
The voting agreement provided that if we failed to redeem our Series A preferred stock by May 22, 2003, the holder of the preferred stock would be entitled to require us to redeem the
preferred stock. We received such a demand from the holder of our preferred stock on May 23, 2003; however, we do not have enough cash available to redeem the holder of our preferred stock. Our
default in making a timely redemption payment gives the holder of our preferred stock the right under the voting agreement to appoint two new directors to our board. Our charter also gives the holder
of our preferred stock the right to elect two new directors if and when dividends on its series A preferred stock are in arrears for more than six quarters. Currently, dividends on the
series A preferred stock are fourteen quarters in arrears. These director election rights are not cumulative, which means that the holder of our preferred stock may elect two, but not four, new
directors. The current holder of our preferred stock, AEW, informed us previously that it does not currently intend to exercise its director election rights. However, it might decide to exercise such
right at any time. The appointment of such directors to our board might reduce the efficiency of our board's decision-making or result in decisions that prejudice the economic interests of the holders
of our common stock in favor of the holder of our preferred stock.



At some point during our liquidation, as expressly permitted by our plan of liquidation, we may elect to contribute our remaining assets and liabilities to a
liquidating trust. Our stockholders would receive interests in the liquidating trust and our corporate existence would terminate. The SEC has historically allowed liquidating trusts to stop filing
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and to file unaudited annual financial statements on Form 10-K. Accordingly, if the SEC were to grant similar relief to any
successor liquidating trust we may form, we might realize substantial legal and auditing cost savings over the remainder of our liquidation, as well as general and administrative cost savings such as
corporate governance costs, certain insurance costs, and printing and reporting costs of a publicly traded company, among others. However, the plan of liquidation prohibits us from contributing our
assets to a liquidating trust unless and until our preferred stock has been redeemed in full or until such time as they consent to such a contribution.

For
tax purposes, the creation of the liquidating trust should be treated as a distribution of our remaining assets to our stockholders, followed by a contribution of the same assets to
the liquidating trust by our stockholders. As a result, we will recognize gain or loss inherent in any such assets, with any gains offset by available net operating loss carry-overs (discussed above).
In addition, a stockholder would recognize gain to the extent his share of the cash and the fair market value of any assets

8

---



received
by the liquidating trust was greater than the stockholder's basis in his stock, notwithstanding that the stockholder would not contemporaneously receive a distribution of cash or any other
assets with which to satisfy the resulting tax liability.

In
addition, it is possible that the fair market value of the Resort and the other assets received by the liquidating trust, as estimated for purposes of determining the extent of the
stockholder's gain at the time interests in the liquidating trust are distributed to the stockholders, will exceed the cash or fair market value of property ultimately received by the liquidating
trust upon its sale of the assets, in which case the stockholder may not receive a distribution of cash or other assets with which to satisfy any tax liability resulting from the contribution of the
assets to the liquidating trust. In this case, the stockholder would recognize a loss in a taxable year subsequent to the taxable year in which the gain was recognized, which loss might be limited
under the tax code.

If
we do not distribute our assets to a liquidating trust and, instead, continue to operate as a regular corporation until all of our assets are sold, we would recognize gains or losses
upon the sale of assets for federal income tax purposes. Since we are no longer a REIT, we could be subject to income tax on any recognized gains. However, as of December 31, 2002, we believe
we have sufficient net operating loss carryovers to offset any recognized gains. If we were to recognize taxable gains in a year before consideration of net operating loss carryovers, we could be
subject to alternative minimum tax. Generally, for tax years ending after December 31, 2002, the use of net operating loss carryovers to
reduce alternative minimum taxable income is limited to 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. Therefore, tax at a rate of 20% could be imposed on our alternative minimum taxable income that
cannot be reduced by net operating loss carryovers. If a liquidating trust is formed, our net operating loss carryovers will not be available to reduce any gains recognized within the trust. However,
the trust will have a tax basis equal to the fair market value of its assets at the date the liquidating trust is formed. Any gain recognized by the trust would thus be the result of either
appreciation in the value of the assets during the time that they are owned by the trust, or an initial underestimation of the fair market value of the assets at the time the trust is formed.



In the event that we are unable to sell the Resort and our other remaining golf courses as planned, we may be unable to pay our obligations as they become due. In
addition, our ability to pay our obligations as they become due may be compromised if our chief executive officer requires payment of outstanding performance milestone payments owed by us to him
before we are able to realize net cash proceeds from asset sales sufficient to discharge those obligations. As of March 24, 2005, we owed our two most senior executive officers a total of
approximately $1,654,000 in milestone payments and accrued interest on such milestone payments and we owed other third party creditors.

Further,
given the Resort's only source of cash is from any profitable operations of the Resort, and that the operational cash flow capacity of the Resort will likely not permit the
Resort to establish self-sufficiency in the near term, we may be required to provide additional capital to the Resort.

In
the event we are not able to sell our remaining assets within a reasonable period of time and for reasonable amounts, or if our expenses exceed our estimates, we may experience severe
liquidity problems and not be able to meet our financial obligations of our creditors in a timely manner. If we cannot meet our obligations to our creditors in a timely manner we could ultimately
become subject to bankruptcy proceedings.

Currently, our common stock trades on the American Stock Exchange, or Amex. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our listing on Amex or any other
established trading market. Among other things, Amex has considerable discretion with respect to listing standards, which include qualitative and quantitative criteria, some of which are beyond our
control.

As
disclosed on our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 4, 2004, on September 28, 2004 we notified the Amex that we were not in compliance with
Section 1003(d) of the Amex Company Guide due to our inability to timely file financial statements and pro forma financial information relating to the transactions described in our
Form 8-K filed on July 29, 2004, or the July Form 8-K. Following our initial communication with Amex, we submitted to Amex a plan of compliance and
supporting documentation, or Compliance Plan, which provided that the July Form 8-K would be amended by November 15, 2004.

On
September 30, 2004, following our notification to Amex that we were not compliant with Section 1003(d) of the Amex Company Guide and Amex's receipt and review of the
Compliance Plan, Amex sent a letter to us formally notifying us that we were not in compliance with Section 1003(d) of the Amex Company Guide. The September 30, 2004 letter from Amex
further stated that Amex had determined that, in accordance with Section 1009 of the Amex Company Guide, the Compliance Plan made a reasonable demonstration of our ability to regain compliance
with the continued listing standards by the end of the Compliance Plan period. Our listing on Amex was continued pursuant to an extension, subject to certain conditions, including, among others,
ongoing communication with Amex and periodic review of our compliance with the Compliance Plan by Amex. The letter from Amex further stated that by November 15, 2004, we would need to be in
compliance with Amex's continued listing standards by amending the July Form 8-K to include the financial statements and pro forma information respecting the Resort. Additionally,
the letter from Amex noted that failure to regain compliance by November 15, 2004 would likely result in Amex initiating delisting proceedings pursuant to Section 1009 of the Amex
Company Guide. Further, Amex stated that notwithstanding the terms of its letter, Amex may initiate delisting proceedings as appropriate in the public interest, and that Amex might initiate delisting
proceedings in the event that we did show progress consistent with the Compliance Plan. On November 15, 2004, Amex's deadline for compliance, we filed by amendment to our July
Form 8-K the required financial information.

We
cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our listing on Amex. Delisting would harm our business and the value of your investment. If our common stock were to be delisted
from Amex, it could severely limit the market liquidity of the common stock and your ability to sell our securities in the secondary market.



As a result of our inability to timely file by amendment to our July 29, 2004 Form 8-K required financial statements and pro forma
information relating to the transactions described in that report, we are not eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement for a period of one year. As a result of our
ineligibility to use this type of registration statement, it will be more difficult to raise additional capital should we determine that it is necessary or desirable to do so.

While
we are not a party to the class action lawsuit at the present time, we believe that the litigation between the former borrower and approximately fifty of the condominium owners at
the Resort continues to cloud the future of the Resort and could possibly adversely affect its future performance.

We and our subsidiary, GTA-IB, LLC, are required to comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. As such, both entities must timely
file Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K, among other actions. Further, recently
enacted and proposed laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and disclosure requirements applicable to public companies, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and new SEC
regulations have increased the costs of corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices which are now required of us and of GTA-IB. We were formed prior to the enactment of these
new corporate governance standards, and as a result, we did not have all necessary procedures and policies in place at the time of their enactment. Our efforts to comply with applicable laws and
regulations, including requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, are expected to involve significant, and potentially increasing, costs. Costs incurred in complying with these
regulations may reduce the amount of cash available for liquidating distributions in the event that we do not complete an exit transaction which permits us to be free of Exchange Act and
Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance obligations prior to the end of 2005.

The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related laws, rules and regulations create legal bases for administrative enforcement, civil and criminal proceedings against us in case of
non-compliance, thereby increasing our risk of liability and potential sanctions. Costs incurred in defending against any such actions or proceedings, and any liability or sanctions
incurred in connection with such actions or proceedings could negatively effect the amount of cash available for liquidating distributions.
