The accompanying notes to interim condensed consolidated financial statements are an integral part of these financial statements.

**NOTE 1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

The unaudited financial statements to which these notes are attached include, in our opinion, all
adjustments which are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows
of National Health Realty, Inc. (NHR or the Company) and its majority owned subsidiaries.  We assume that
users of these interim financial statements have read or have access to the audited December 31, 2004,
financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation, except in regard to
material contingencies, may be determined in that context.  See our web page at
www.nationalhealthrealty.com.  Accordingly, footnotes and other disclosures which would substantially
duplicate the disclosure contained in our most recent annual report to stockholders have been omitted.  This
quarter's interim financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
a full year for a variety of reasons including, but not limited to, changes in interest rates, rents, operations
and the timing of debt and equity financings.

**NOTE 2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE**

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year.

Diluted earnings per share assumes the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.

The following table summarizes the earnings and the average number of common shares and
common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

**NOTE 3.  COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES**

NHR began operating on December 31, 1997 after the exchange of NHR common stock for certain
assets of NHC including mortgage notes receivable and real property.  In order to protect the REIT status
of NHR, certain NHC unitholders received limited partnership units of NHR/OP, L.P. rather than shares of
common stock of NHR.  As a result of certain unitholders' involuntary acceptance of NHR/OP, L.P.
partnership units to benefit all other unitholders, we have indemnified those certain unitholders for any tax
consequence resulting from any involuntary conversion of NHR/OP, L.P. partnership units into shares of
NHR common stock.  The indemnification expires at such time as the NHR/OP, L.P. unitholders are in a
position to voluntarily convert their partnership units into NHR common stock on a tax free basis without
violating applicable REIT requirements.

We believe that we have operated our business so as to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through
860 of the Internal Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and we intend to continue to operate in such a
manner, but no assurance can be given that we will be able to qualify at all times.  If we qualify as a REIT,
we will generally not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net income that is currently
distributed to stockholders.  This treatment substantially eliminates the "double taxation" (at the corporate
and stockholder levels) that typically applies to corporate dividends.  Our failure to continue to qualify under
the applicable REIT qualification rules and regulations would cause us to owe state and federal income taxes
and would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

**NOTE 4. MORTGAGE NOTE RECEIVABLE**

*FCC Notes Receivable Prepayments*

On February 27, 2004, we received prepayments of the balance (approximately $30,384,000) of our
10.25% notes receivable from Florida Convalescent Centers, Inc. or affiliates (FCC) of Sarasota, Florida.
The notes were scheduled to mature on October 31, 2004.

The proceeds of the prepayments plus cash on hand were used to pay 100% (approximately
$31,175,000) of the credit facility debt, which had a current interest rate of 3.10%.

**NOTE 5.  INVESTMENT IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES**

On September 17, 2002, we purchased 225,000 shares of National Health Investors, Inc. ("NHI")
common stock for approximately $3,483,000.  At March 31, 2005, the fair value of the shares is $5,846,000.
This investment in marketable securities is classified as an investment in securities available for sale.
Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are recorded in stockholders' equity in accordance
with SFAS No. 115.

**NOTE 6.  STOCK OPTION PLAN**

Our stockholders have approved the 1997 Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan under which
options to purchase shares of our common stock are available for grant to our consultants, advisors, directors
and employees at a price no less than the market value of the stock on the date the option is granted.  The
vesting period and term of the options is from five to six years.  The following table summarizes option
activity:

|                                   |           | Weighted      
|---------------------------------- | --------- | --------------
|                                   | Number    | Average

|Options exercisable March 31, 2005 | 35,000    | $14.07        

At March 31, 2005, options to purchase 35,000 shares of common stock are outstanding and
exercisable.  Exercise prices on the options range from $6.50 to $16.95 per share.  The weighted average
contractual life of options outstanding at March 31, 2005 is 1.13 years.  We have reserved 500,000 shares
of common stock for issuance under the stock option plan.  At March 31, 2005, options to purchase 36,802
additional shares of common stock may be issued under the stock option plan.

Based on the number of options granted and the historical and expected future trends of factors
affecting valuation of those options, management believes that the additional compensation cost, as
calculated in accordance with SFAS 123, has no effect on our net income or earnings per share.

**NOTE 7. TERM NOTE PAYABLE**

In May 2004, we entered into a $17,000,000 bank term loan agreement ($15,725,000 outstanding
at March 31, 2005).  The proceeds of the loan were used to repay a note payable to NHC in the approximate
amount of $14,922,000 (interest rate of LIBOR +2.25% with a floor of 4%) and a senior secured note
payable to NHC in the approximate amount of $1,723,000 (interest rate of 8.4%).  The term note payable
requires monthly interest payments at the interest rate of 30 day LIBOR plus 1.50%.  Quarterly principal
payments in the amount of $425,000 are required until maturity (May 14, 2007) at which time the entire
outstanding principal balance shall be due.

**NOTE 8.  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

In December of 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 153, *Exchanges of Nonmonetary
Assets-An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29*("Statement 153").  Statement 153 amends APB Opinion No.
29, *Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions*, that was issued in 1973.  The amendments made by
Statement 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based
on the fair value of the assets exchanged.  Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of
non-monetary assets that do not have "commercial substance".  Previously, Opinion 29 required that the
accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in
the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished.  The
provisions in Statement 153 are effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods
beginning after June 15, 2005.  Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard
prospectively.  The Company plans to adopt Statement 153 beginning July 1, 2005.  The future effect of
Statement 153 on the Company's financial statements will depend on whether the Company enters into
certain non-monetary transactions.  The Company, however, does not expect the adoption of Statement 153
to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), *Share-Based Payment.*SFAS No. 123(R)
replaces SFAS No. 123, *Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation*, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,
*Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees*.  SFAS No. 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee
provides service in exchange for the award.  SFAS No. 123(R) is effective for the Company beginning
January 1, 2006.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant
impact on the Company's financial statements.

**Item 2.	Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.**

OVERVIEW

National Health Realty, Inc. (NHR or the Company) is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that
began operations on January 1, 1998.  Currently our assets, through our subsidiary NHR/OP, L.P. (the
Operating Partnership), include the real estate of 23 health care facilities, including 16 licensed skilled
nursing facilities, six assisted living facilities and one independent living center (the Health Care Facilities).
We also own seven first and second mortgage promissory notes with principal balances totaling $13,457,000
(the Notes) at March 31, 2005 and secured by the real property of health care facilities.  Our revenues are
derived primarily from rent and interest income from these real estate properties and mortgages receivable.
Our primary lessee is National HealthCare Corporation (NHC) which leases 14 of our 23 properties and
guarantees the lease payments on the remaining nine properties.

*Investment Restriction Removed*

The NHR Advisory Agreement provides that we will not, without the prior approval of NHI, be
actively or passively engaged in the pursuit of additional investment opportunities until the earlier of the
termination of the Advisory Agreement or such time as NHC is no longer actively engaged as investment
advisor to NHI.  NHC announced on November 1, 2004 that it is no longer the advisor to NHI.  Therefore,
the restriction on NHR's investment activities has been removed.

*Areas of Focus*

Management is currently focusing upon our capacities as landlord and note holder.  Our objectives
are to (1) provide current income for distribution to stockholders, (2) to provide the opportunity for
additional returns to investors by participating in any increase in the operating revenues of our leased
properties; (3) to provide the opportunity to realize capital growth resulting from appreciation, if any, in the
value of our portfolio properties; and (4) to preserve and protect stockholder's capital.  We can offer no
assurance that these objectives will be realized.

NHR's quarterly common stock dividend of 33.25 cents per share is expected to remain unchanged
for the near future.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and 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.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates and cause our reported net income to vary significantly from period to period.

Our significant accounting policies and the associated estimates and the issues which impact these
estimates are as follows:

*Revenue Recognition - Mortgage Interest and Rental Income*

We collect interest and rent from our customers.  Generally our policy is to recognize revenues on
an accrual basis as earned.  However, we may in the future determine that, based on insufficient historical
collections and the lack of expected future collections, revenue for interest or rent is not realizable.  For any
such nonperforming investments, our policy is to recognize interest or rental income only in the period when
payments are received.  If conclusions as to the realizibility of revenue change, our revenues could vary
significantly from period to period.

*Valuations of and Impairments to Our Investment*s

Since the passage of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 which affected Skilled Nursing Facilities
(SNFs) beginning in January 1999, the long-term care industry has experienced material reductions in
government and private insurance reimbursement.  Some legislative relief was granted in 2000 and 2001 as
a result of the Balanced Budget Refinement Act of 1999, however, some of the add-on provisions expired
October 1, 2002 materially reducing reimbursement.  Effective October 1, 2004, the Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued the annual market basket (inflationary) increase of 2.8% for skilled
nursing facilities' reimbursement of Medicare Part A.  In the President's fiscal year 2006 budget request,
the Administration has proposed a refinement of the Medicare resource utilization groups (RUGs) that would
result in $25 billion in cuts to skilled nursing care over ten years.  Further, the Administration has proposed
more than $39 billion in Medicaid cuts also over ten years.  The effect of these cuts on the future revenues
of our tenants and borrowers, if implemented, cannot at this time be determined.  The Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services is currently preparing a report on skilled nursing facility payments that will
recommend payment methodology changes to Congress.

The long-term health care industry has also experienced a dramatic increase in professional liability
claims and in the cost of insurance to cover such claims.  These factors have combined to cause a number
of bankruptcy filings, bankruptcy court rulings and court judgments about refinancing which have affected
some of our lessees and mortgagees.

Decisions about valuations and impairments of our investments require significant judgements and
estimates on the part of management.  We monitor the liquidity and credit worthiness of our tenants and
borrowers on an ongoing basis.  For real estate properties, the need to recognize an impairment is evaluated
on a property by property basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144).  Recognition of an
impairment is based upon estimated future cash flows from a property compared to the carrying value of the
property.  For notes receivable, impairment recognition is based upon an evaluation of the estimated
collectibility of loan payments on a specific loan basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - An Amendment of FASB
Statements No. 5 and 15".  While we believe that the carrying amounts of our properties and notes receivable
are realizable, it is possible that future events could require us to make significant adjustments or revisions
to these estimates.

*REIT Status and Taxes*

We believe that we have operated our business so as to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through
860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and we intend to continue to operate
in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will be able to qualify at all times.  If we qualify
as a REIT, we will generally not be subject to federal corporate income taxes on our net income that is
currently distributed to our stockholders.  This treatment substantially eliminates the "double taxation" (at
the corporate and stockholder levels) that typically applies to corporate dividends.  Our failure to continue
to qualify under the applicable REIT qualification rules and regulations would cause us to owe state and
federal income taxes and would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of
operations and cash flows.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

*FCC Notes and Bank Credit Facility Prepayments*

On February 27, 2004, we received prepayment of the balance (approximately $30,384,000) of our
10.25% notes receivable from Florida Convalescent Centers, Inc. or affiliates (FCC) of Sarasota, Florida.
The notes were scheduled to mature on October 31, 2004.

The proceeds of the prepayments plus cash on hand were used to pay 100% (approximately
$31,175,000) of the credit facility debt, which had a current interest rate of 3.10%.

*Term Note Payable*

In May 2004, we borrowed $17,000,000 ($15,725,000 outstanding at March 31, 2005) under a bank
term loan with an interest rate of 30 day LIBOR plus 1.5% and a three year term.  The proceeds of the loan
were used to repay a note payable to NHC in the approximate amount of $14,922,000 (interest rate of LIBOR
+ 2.25% with a floor of 4%) and a senior secured note payable to NHC in the approximate amount of
$1,723,000 (interest rate of 8.4%).  The new  term note payable requires monthly interest payments plus
quarterly principal payments in the amount of $425,000 until maturity on May 14, 2007 at which time the
entire outstanding principal balance is due.

*Leases*

We lease our 23 health care facilities to various lessees: 14 properties are leased to NHC, and nine
properties that were previously leased to NHC are leased to nine separate lessees not related to NHC.  With
respect to these nine properties, NHC remains obligated under its master lease agreement and continues to
remain obligated to make the lease payments to us.  Lease payments made to us from the new lessees are
credited against NHC's overall rent obligation.  At March 31, 2005, all payments are current.  Our leases
with NHC and the nine separate lessees have initial five or ten year terms with provisions for two five year
renewal terms.

*Contractual Cash Obligations*

Our contractual cash obligations for periods subsequent to March 31, 2005 are as follows:

|                                   |         | Less than |           |           |              
|---------------------------------- | ------- | --------- | --------- | --------- | -------------
|(in thousands)                     | Total   | 1 Year    | 2-3 Years | 4-5 Years | After 5 Years
|Long-term debt                     | $15,725 | $1,700    | $14,025   | $---      | $---         
|Total Contractual Cash Obligations | $15,725 | $1,700    | $14,025   | $     --- | $     ---    

Interest expense has not been included in the above table due to the difficulty in projecting variable
rate interest.  During the three months ended March 31, 2005, our cash payments for interest were $164,000.

We expect that current cash on hand, marketable securities, short-term notes receivable, operating
cash flows, and as needed, our borrowing capacity will be adequate to finance our operating and financing
requirements for 2005 and 2006.

*Sources and Uses of Funds*

Our leasing and mortgage services generated net cash from operating activities during the three
months ended March 31, 2005 in the amount of $4,661,000 compared to $5,395,000 in the prior period.  Net
cash from operating activities generally includes net income plus non-cash expenses, such as depreciation and
amortization and provision for loan losses, if any, and working capital changes.  The period to period decrease
is due primarily to reduced mortgage interest income offset in part by reduced interest expense.

Cash flows provided by investing activities totaled $96,000 during the three months ended March 31,
2005 compared to $30,801,000 in the prior period.  Collection of mortgage notes receivable provided $96,000
of cash flow in the current period compared to $30,734,000 in the same period last year.  Prior year
collections include the prepayment of $30,384,000 of notes receivable from FCC.  There are no  distributions
from an unconsolidated investment in the current period compared to $67,000 in the prior period.

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $3,502,000 ($36,495,000 last year) and included
payments on long-term debt of $425,000 ($31,174,000 last year), payments for dividends to stockholders of
$4,001,000 ($4,723,000 last year), and payments for cash distributions to partners of $501,000 ($598,000 last
year) offset in part by $1,425,000 in proceeds from issuance of common shares (- 0 - last year).  The prior
year payments on long-term debt include the prepayment of 100% of our credit facility debt of $31,175,000.

*Dividends*

We intend to pay quarterly distributions to our stockholders in an amount at least sufficient to satisfy
the distribution requirements of a real estate investment trust.  Such requirements necessitate that at least 90%
of our taxable income be distributed annually.  The primary source for distributions will be rental and interest
income we earn on the real property and mortgage notes receivable.

*Debt to Equity Ratio*

At March 31, 2005, our debt as a percentage of total liabilities and capital was 11.6%.

Our current cash on hand, marketable securities, collections on leases and notes receivable, operating
cash flows and, as needed, our borrowing capacity is expected to be adequate to pay or finance any scheduled
debt reduction, plus our operating requirements for 2005 and into 2006.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

*Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2004*

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 is $2,783,000 versus $3,104,000 for the same
period in 2004, a decrease of 10.3%.  Diluted earnings per common share is 28 cents in the 2005 period,
compared to 32 cents in the 2004 period.

Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005 decreased $510,000 to $4,900,000 from
$5,410,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Revenues from rental income decreased $33,000 or
..8% when compared to the same period in 2004.  Revenues from mortgage interest decreased $477,000 or
44.6% in 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004.

Rental income declined because percentage rent reported in the first quarter of 2005 included a
negative adjustment from the fourth quarter of 2004 which could not be previously determined.  Percentage
rent is calculated at 3% of the amount by which gross revenues of each leased health care center in each
quarter of each year after 1999 exceed the gross revenues of such health care facility in the applicable quarter
of 1999.

The decrease in mortgage income is the result of lower balances of notes receivable.  We received
prepayments on mortgages receivable totaling $30,384,000 in February 2004.  Mortgage interest decreased
also because of the reductions in the principal of mortgage notes receivable due to regular monthly
amortization.

Total expenses for the 2005 three month period decreased $118,000 or 5.8% to $1,898,000 from
$2,016,000 for the 2004 three month period.  Interest expense decreased $164,000 or 50.0% in the 2005 three
month period as compared to the 2004 period.  Depreciation of real estate decreased $23,000 or 1.5%.
General and administrative costs increased $77,000 or 40.7%.

Interest expense declined due to the paydown of our $31,175,000 credit facility in the first quarter
of 2004.  Interest expense also decreased because of regular quarterly payments on our bank term loan.

General and administrative expenses increased due to increased audit fees, increased costs of
indemnification insurance, and expenses related to cash-less exercise of directors' stock options.

Revenues from investment and interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased
$21,000 or 20.6% compared to the same period in 2004.  Investment and interest income for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 includes $101,000 of dividend income and $22,000 of bank interest income.

**Funds From Operations**

Our funds from operations ("FFO") for the three months ended March 31, 2005, on a diluted basis
was $4,090,000, a decrease of $335,000 as compared to $4,425,000 for the same period in 2004.  FFO
represents net earnings available to common stockholders, excluding the effects of asset dispositions, plus
depreciation associated with real estate investments.  Diluted FFO assumes, if dilutive, the conversion of
cumulative convertible preferred stock and the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.

We believe that funds from operations is an important supplemental measure of operating
performance for a real estate investment trust.  Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real
estate assets requires straight-line depreciation (except on land), such accounting presentation implies that
the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.  Since real estate values instead have
historically risen and fallen with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a real estate
investment trust that use historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative, and should be
supplemented with a measure such as FFO.  The term FFO was designed by the real estate investment trust
industry to address this issue.  Our measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
REITs.  Consequently, our funds from operations may not provide a meaningful measure of our performance
as compared to that of other REITs.  Since other REITs may not use our definition of FFO, caution should
be exercised when comparing our Company's FFO to that of other REITs.  Funds from operations in and of
itself does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP (funds from
operations does not include changes in operating assets and liabilities) and therefore should not be considered
an alternative to net earnings as an indication of operating performance, or to net cash flow from operating
activities as determined by GAAP in the United States, as a measure of liquidity and is not necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

The following table reconciles net income to funds from operations:

FUTURE RENTAL AND MORTGAGE INTEREST INCOME UNCERTAINTIES

Our rental and mortgage interest income revenues are believed by management to be secure.
However, the majority of the income of our lessees and borrowers is derived from the lessees' participation
in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.  Adverse changes in these programs or the inability of our lessees
and borrowers to participate in these programs would have a material adverse impact on the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of our lessees and borrowers and their resultant ability to service their
obligations to us.  Additionally, prepayment by our borrowers of their mortgage notes to us would reduce our
future income.

INCOME TAXES

We intend at all times to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended. Therefore, we will not be subject to federal income tax provided we distribute at
least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet other requirements to continue
to qualify as a REIT.  Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the consolidated
financial statements. Our failure to continue to qualify under the applicable REIT qualification rules and
regulations would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Inflation may affect us in the future by changing the underlying value of our real estate or by
impacting our cost of financing operations.

Our revenues are primarily from long-term investments.  Our leases with NHC require increases in
rent income based on increases in the revenues of the leased facilities.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

References throughout this document to the Company, "we" or "us" include National Health Realty,
Inc. and its subsidiaries.  In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's "Plain English"
guidelines, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been written in the first person.  In this document, the
words "we", "our", "ours" and "us" refer only to National Health Realty, Inc. and its subsidiaries and not any
other person.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other information we provide from time to time, contains
certain "forward-looking" statements as that term is defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995.  All statements regarding our expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows,
funds from operations, continued performance improvements, ability to service and refinance our debt
obligations, ability to finance growth opportunities, and similar statements including, without limitations,
those containing words such as "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "intends", "estimates", "plans", and other
similar expressions are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our
actual results in future periods to differ materially from those projected or contemplated in the forward-looking statements as a result of, but not limited to, the following factors:

*	national and local economic conditions, including their effect on the availability and cost of labor,
utilities and materials;

*	the effect of government regulations and changes in regulations governing the healthcare industry,
including compliance with such regulations by us and our borrowers and/or lessees;

*	changes in Medicare and Medicaid payment levels and methodologies and the application of such
methodologies by the government and its fiscal intermediaries;

*	the ability to pay when due or refinance certain debt obligations when they mature;

*	the competitive environment in which we operate;

See the notes to the quarterly financial statement, and "Item 1.  Business" as is found in our 2004
Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of various governmental regulations and other operating factors
relating to the healthcare industry and the risk factors inherent in them.  The Annual Report and Form 10-Q's
are available on our web site at www.nationalhealthrealty.com.  You should carefully consider those risks
before making any investment decisions in the Company.  These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones
facing the Company.  There may be additional risks that we do not presently know of or that we currently
deem immaterial.  If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations
could be materially adversely affected.  In that case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline,
and you may lose all or part of your investment.  Given these risks and uncertainties, we can give no
assurances that these forward-looking statements will, in fact, transpire and, therefore, caution investors not
to place undue reliance on them.

**Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**

INTEREST RATE RISK

Our cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with a maturity of less than three
months.  Approximately $8,260,000 of our notes receivable bear interest at fixed interest rates.  As the interest
rates on these notes receivable are fixed, a hypothetical 10% change would have no impact on our future
earnings and cash flows related to these instruments.  Approximately $5,197,000 of our notes receivable bear
interest at variable rates (generally at prime plus 2%).  Because the interest rate of these instruments are
variable, a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would result in a related increase or decrease in annual
interest income of approximately $40,000.

As of March 31, 2005, all of our long-term debt ($15,725,000) bears interest at floating interest rates.
Because the interest rates of these instruments are variable, a hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates would
result in additional annual interest expense of $61,000 and a 10% reduction in interest rates would result in
annual interest expense declining $61,000.

We currently do not use any derivative instruments to hedge our interest rate expense or for trading
purposes. The use of such instruments would be subject to strict approvals by our senior officers.  Therefore,
our exposure related to such derivative instruments is not material to our financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

Equity Price Risk

We consider our investments in marketable securities as available for sale securities and unrealized
gains and losses are recorded in stockholders' equity in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115.  The investments in marketable securities are recorded at their fair market value based
on quoted market prices.  Thus, there is exposure to equity price risk, which is the potential change in fair
value due to a change in quoted market prices.  Hypothetically, a 10% increase in quoted market prices would
result in a related 10% increase in the fair value of our investments in marketable securities of approximately
$585,000 and 10% reduction in quoted market prices would result in a related 10% decrease in the fair value
of our investments in marketable securities of approximately $585,000.

**Item 4.  Controls and Procedures**

As of March 31, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation
of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Principal Accounting
Officer ("PAO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures.  Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and PAO, concluded
that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2005.  There have been
no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect
internal controls during the quarterly period ended or subsequent to March 31, 2005. **PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION**
