(Unaudited)

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.
NOTE B – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS— FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), established a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets including discontinued operations. This statement requires that the operations related to segments that have been sold, or segments that are intended to be sold, be presented as discontinued operations in the statement of operations for all periods presented, and the segments intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the balance sheet. In the event of a future asset sale, the company is required to reclassify portions of previously reported operations to discontinued operations within the Statements of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, income from discontinued operations relates to the disposition of subsidiaries providing management services.
In May 2004, the Company sold the subsidiaries of the Company that provide management services for $250,000 cash and a note receivable in the amount of $1,822,540. In the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded an impairment of $37,931,116, representing the write down of certain assets of the those two subsidiaries that provided the management services to the value agreed to between the related party buyer and seller. The primary asset written down was the investment in preferred stock of an affiliate.
The accompanying unaudited 2006 financial statements contain an accrual for current federal income taxes calculated using annualized net income of approximately of $186,000. Using a estimated tax rate of 34%, the estimated tax liability for the year would be approximately $63,000. The $15,750 included as current income tax expense in the accompanying unaudited 2006 financial statements represents one quarter of the estimated tax liability for the year. There are no significant differences between the Company’s net income for financial and income tax reporting.
The Company reduced the valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset related to the net operating loss carryforward of approximately $40,000 resulting in a deferred tax benefit of approximately $13,500 as reflected in the accompanying unaudited 2006 financial statements. The Company reduced the allowance because management has determined that they will more likely than not be able to utilize the net operating loss carryforward
