Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Business Activities
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ILX Resorts Incorporated, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“ILX” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction wit h the Company’s most recent audited financial statements.
The Company’s significant business activities include developing, operating, marketing and financing ownership interests (“Vacation Ownership Interests”) in resort properties located in Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Nevada and Mexico.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sales of Vacation Ownership Interests is recognized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate (“SFAS 66”). No sales are recognized until such time as a minimum of 10% of the purchase price has been received in cash, the statutory rescission period has expired, the buyer is committed to continued payments of the remaining purchase price and the Company has been released of all future obligations for the Vacation Ownership Interest. Resort operating revenue represents daily room rentals and revenues from food and other resort services. Such revenues are recorded as the rooms are rented or the services are performed.
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
Cash equivalents are liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The following summarizes interest paid, income taxes paid and interest capitalized.

Stock Option Plan
The Company applies APB Opinion 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for its Stock Option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock options granted under the Plans. Had compensation cost for the Plans been determined and amortized based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the Plans consistent with the alternative method of SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net income and income per share would have decreased to the proforma amounts indicated below.

Note 3. Shareholders’ Equity
In December 2002, the Company announced an annual cash dividend of $0.40 per common share to be paid in equal quarterly installments, payable on the tenth day of the calendar month following the end of each calendar quarter, to common shareholders of record as of the last day of each calendar quarter in 2003. In November 2003, the annual cash dividend was increased to $0.42 per common share for 2004 to be paid in equal quarterly installments. In October 2004, the annual cash dividend was again increased to $0.44 per common share for 2005 to be paid in equal quarterly installments. In March 2003, the Company adopted the ILX Resorts Incorporated Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”). Under the terms of the DRIP, shareholders may elect to reinvest dividends in shares of the Company’s common stock, with no brokerage or other fees to the shareholder. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, shareholders elected to receive 48,080 shares of common stock valued at $488,225 under the DRIP and cash dividends of $472,145. All of the 48,080 were newly issued common shares. The 48,080 common shares include 20,542 common shares, valued at $208,669 issued on treasury shares held as collateral. At June 30, 2005, $385,155 was accrued for the second quarter 2005 dividend which was paid July 11, 2005.
Note 4. Related Party Transactions
During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Genesis Investment Group, Inc. (“Genesis”), recorded the sale of 34 Vacation Ownership Interests to Premiere Vacation Club homeowners’ association, an Arizona nonprofit corporation (“PVC”). PVC purchased the intervals at $2,415 per interval, the same price at which it has historically acquired intervals in arms-length negotiations with unaffiliated third parties. PVC is owned by the holders of its vacation ownership interests, including the Company. A gain of $42,145 was recorded on the sale. At June 30, 2005 deeds of trust for 532 of the Vacation Ownership Interests secure outstanding indebtedness from PVC to Genesis of $1,247,082.
Note 5. Subsequent Events
In July 2005, the Company issued 45,340 shares of unregistered common stock valued at $350,720, as follows: 40,000 shares valued at $308,000 as incentive compensation to employees and 5,340 shares valued at $42,720 issued in lieu of professional fees to a service provider. The shares were issued under the Company’s Stock Bonus Plan.
In July 2005, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Genesis recorded the sale of 43 Vacation Ownership Interests to PVC. PVC purchased the intervals at $2,415 per interval, the same price at which it has historically acquired intervals in arms-length negotiations with unaffiliated third parties. A gain of $43,695 will be recorded on the sale.
In July 2005, the Superior Court of Arizona In and For the County of Coconino granted final approval of a Settlement Agreement between the Company, its Sedona Vacation Club and Premiere Vacation Club businesses and the putative “class action” Plaintiffs in litigation originally filed in September 2003. In the Settlement Agreement the Company denied each and every one of the Plaintiff’s allegations of unlawful or wrongful conduct and injuries. The terms and conditions are found in the Settlement Agreement which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2005 and incorporated herein by reference.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
In September 2003, the Company received pleadings indicating that a lawsuit against the Company and its Sedona Vacation Club and Premiere Vacation Club businesses was filed by two individuals claiming damages for deceptive and abusive practices on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of vacation ownership interests. The Company, Sedona Vacation Club and Premiere Vacation Club received amended complaints in May and June 2004. In both instances, named plaintiffs were added and deleted. The amended complaints were considerably more narrow in scope than the initial complaint. The suit alleged claims for breach of the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act, the Arizona Real Estate Timeshare Act, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. A motion for class certification was filed in October 2004 which contained the deletion of three existing class members and the proposed addition of three new class members. The Company and its counsel believed that the allegations were without merit and vigorously defended plaintiffs’ claims. The Company responded to the complaint, asserted counterclaims and filed certain motions in May 2004 and filed a disclosure statement in July 2004. The Company deposed the three individuals whom plaintiff’s counsel had identified as purported “class representatives.” The plaintiffs took no depositions. In April 2005, the Superior Court of Arizona In and For the County of Coconino granted preliminary approval of a Settlement Agreement (attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2005 and incorporated herein by reference). In the Settlement Agreement the Company denied each and every one of the Plaintiffs’ allegations of unlawful or wrongful conduct and injuries. A Notice to Owners of Timeshare Interests/Memberships in Sedona Vacation Club and/or Premiere Vacation Club (the “ Class Notice”) describing the proposed settlement was mailed to Premiere Vacation Club and Sedona Vacation Club members in May 2005. Class members had an opportunity to opt out of or object to the settlement. Approximately 25,700 notices were mailed to class members. 46 class members objected to the settlement and 128 opted out resulting in a non-disapproval percentage of 99.3%. A court hearing was held on July 26, 2005 and final approval of the Settlement Agreement was granted. The pre-tax legal and settlement expenses associated with the litigation were $623,440 and $634,377 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 as indicated in “Lawsuit and settlement expenses” on the condensed consolidated statements of operation.

In April 2005, VCA-NV sold its leasehold interest in a 44-acre real estate parcel in Las Vegas, Nevada. ILX continued to act as a Guarantor of the Lease on obligations owed to Clark County as Landlord until such time as the purchaser had received all consents and executed documents necessary for the Company to no longer be a Guarantor but no later than December 31, 2005. The Company does not believe its obligations under the guaranty are material. In June 2005 Clark County gave and recorded its consent to the Assignment and Assumption of the Lease.

(Unaudited)
In conjunction with the sale, VCA-NV and Streets Las Vegas, L.L.C. (Streets) entered into a Loan Agreement, Promissory Note and Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing with CanPartners Realty Holding Company IV, LLC (CanPartners). VCA-NV participated as an accommodation party, without recourse liability of any material kind, to enable CanPartners to consummate the transaction and obtain lender’s title insurance. The documents provide for the release of VCA-NV at 91 days after recordation of Clark County’s Consent to the Assignment and Assumption of the Lease. Clark County fully consented to, and recorded the Assignment and Assumption of the Lease in June 2005. The Loan Agreement, Promissory Note and Deed of Trust all contain identical “non-recourse to VCA” provisions. The non-recourse provisions resulted in VCA-NV having no material liability or ongoing obligation under the loan documents.
The Company (ILX) provided a guaranty in favor of CanPartners for the transaction discussed above. The only condition to the full release of ILX under the guaranty and VCA-NV under the loan documents is that, as set forth in the guaranty, neither ILX nor VCA-NV causes VCA-NV to file a bankruptcy reorganization within 91 days of the recordation of the Clark County Consent to Assignment and Assumption discussed above. The Company believes there is no material liability of any kind under this guaranty.

Overview
ILX Resorts Incorporated (“ILX” or the “Company”) is one of the leading developers, marketers and operators of timeshare resorts in the western United States and Mexico. The Company’s principal operations consist of (i) acquiring, developing and operating timeshare resorts, marketed by the Company as vacation ownership resorts, (ii) marketing and selling vacation ownership interests in the timeshare resorts, which typically have entitled the buyers thereof to ownership of a fully-furnished unit for a one-week period on either an annual or an alternate year (i.e., biennial) basis (“Vacation Ownership Interests”), and (iii) providing purchase money financing to the buyers of Vacation Ownership Interests at its resorts. In addition, the Company receives revenues from the rental of its unused or unsold inventory of units at its vacation ownership resorts, and from the sale of food, beverages and other services at such resorts. The Company’s current portfolio of resorts consists of seven resorts in Arizona, one in Indiana, one in Colorado, one in San Carlos, Mexico, land adjacent to an existing resort in Arizona on which the Company has commenced construction (Premiere Vacation Club at the Roundhouse Resort) and land in Puerto Penãsco (Rocky Point), Mexico (collectively, the “ILX Resorts”). One of the resorts in Arizona is not at this time registered with the Arizona Department of Real Estate nor is being marketed for sale as Vacation Ownership Interests, and is operated under a long-term lease arrangement. The Company also owns 1,899 Vacation Ownership Interests in a resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, 1,795 of which have been annexed into Premiere Vacation Club, 11 Vacation Ownership Interests in a resort in Pinetop, Arizona that have not yet been annexed into Premiere Vacation Club and 153 Vacation Ownership Interests in a resort in Phoeni x, Arizona 150 of which have been annexed into Premiere Vacation Club.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of Vacation Ownership Interests at such time as a minimum of 10% of the purchase price has been received in cash, the statutory rescission period has expired, the buyer is committed to continued payments of the remaining purchase price and the Company’s future obligations for the Vacation Ownership Interests have been released. Resort operating revenues are recorded as the rooms are rented or the services are performed.
Costs associated with the acquisition and development of Vacation Ownership Interests, including carrying costs such as interest and taxes, are capitalized and amortized to cost of sales as the respective revenue is recognized.

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction w ith the Company’s most recent audited financial statements.
The Company’s significant business activities include developing, operating, marketing and financing ownership interests (“Vacation Ownership Interests”) in resort properties located in Arizona, Colorado, Indiana and Mexico.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from sales of Vacation Ownership Interests is recognized in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate (“SFAS 66”). No sales are recognized until such time as a minimum of 10% of the purchase price has been received in cash, the statutory rescission period has expired, the buyer is committed to continued payments of the remaining purchase price and the Company has been released of all future obligations for the Vacation Ownership Interest. Resort operating revenue represents daily room rentals (inclusive of homeowner’s dues) and revenues from food and other resort services. Such revenues are recorded as the rooms are rented or the services are performed.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, “Accounting for Real-Estate Time-Sharing Transactions.” SFAS No. 152 amends SFAS No. 66 “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, “Accounting for Real-Estate Time-Sharing Transactions.” The Company will be required to apply this statement prospectively for real estate time-sharing transactions entered into after December 31, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating what effect this statement will have on the Company’s revenue recognition, financial position and results of operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(CONTINUED)
Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 to the Three and Six Months June 30, 2005
Sales of Vacation Ownership Interests decreased 20.3% or $2,168,812 to $8,540,652 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, from $10,709,464 for the same period in 2004 and decreased 11.3% or $2,112,504 to $16,559,171 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $18,671,675 for the same period in 2004. The decreases reflect primarily decreased sales from the Las Vegas sales office. This office was relocated from its off-site location and reduced in scale in late 2003. The Company continued to make refinements to the sales and marketing processes of the Las Vegas sales office but decided in June 2005, following the sale of its leasehold interest in a 44-acre parcel of land in Las Vegas, to withdraw from this market. The decreased revenue from the Las Vegas sales office was partially offset by sales generated by the Rancho Mañana sales office which opened in September 2004.
The average sales price per Vacation Ownership Interest sold (excluding revenues from Upgrades) increased 8.4% or $1,251 in 2005 to $16,080 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $14,829 for the same period in 2004 and increased 8.9% or $1,309 to $16,082 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and $14,773 for the same period in 2004. The increase in the average sales price is primarily due to a change in the product mix sold. The number of Vacation Ownership Interests sold decreased 27.7% from 585 in the three months ended June 30, 2004 to 423 for the same period in 2005 and decreased 18.0% from 1,007 in the six months ended June 30, 2004 to 826 for the same period in 2005 due to the reduced scale of the Las Vegas sales office offset by the Rancho Mañana office as described above, and inclement weather in Sedona. The three and six months ended June 30, 2005 included 501 and 991 bien nial Vacation Ownership Interests (counted as 250.5 and 495.5 annual Vacation Ownership Interests) compared to 566 and 964 biennial Vacation Ownership Interests (counted as 283 and 482 annual Vacation Ownership Interests) in the same periods in 2004, respectively.
Upgrade revenue, included in Vacation Ownership Interest sales, decreased 19.5% to $1,399,828 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $1,739,004 for the same period in 2004 and decreased 18.8% to $2,664,380 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $3,281,655 for the same period in 2004 reflecting a reduction in marketing efforts to existing owners at the VCA-South Bend and VCA-Tucson sales offices. Upgrades often do not involve the sale of additional Vacation Ownership Interests (merely their exchange) and, therefore, such Upgrades increase the average sales price per Vacation Ownership Interest sold. The average sales price per Vacation Ownership Interest sold (including Upgrades) increased 8.9% or $1,591 to $19,393 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $17,802 in 2004 and increased 7.1% or $1,278 to $19,310 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and $18,032 for the same period in 2004. The average sales price increase, despite reduced Upgrade revenue, is due to the increase in average sales price per Vacation Ownership Interest sold (excluding Upgrades) described above.
Resort operating revenue decreased 1.9% and 2.2% or $94,826 and $196,815 to $4,845,864 and $8,843,720 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, reflecting decreased occupancy in Arizona resorts due to inclement weather and road closures caused by forest fires in the surrounding areas. Cost of resort operations as a percentage of resort operating revenue increased from 84.7% to 86.1% for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005 and increased from 88.5% to 89.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Because of the large fixed cost component of resort operations, reductions in revenue resulted in greater costs as a percentage of revenue.
Interest and finance income decreased 20.8% to $953,544 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $1,203,225 for the same period in 2004 and decreased 11.8% to $1,998,495 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $2,265,321 for the same period in 2004, reflecting reduced financing of Customer Notes due to the reduction in sales of Vacation Ownership Interests explained above, prepayments of previously sold Customer Notes, as well as decreased spreads on the sale of Customer Notes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(CONTINUED)
Cost of Vacation Ownership Interests sold as a percentage of Vacation Ownership Interest sales increased from 13.0% and 12.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 to 14.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, reflecting the addition of Rancho Mañana inventory.
Sales and marketing as a percentage of sales of Vacation Ownership Interests increased to 63.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from 58.1% for the same period in 2004 and to 63.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from 62.7% for the same period in 2004, reflecting greater revenue in the second quarter of 2004, including non-recurring benefits, with the second quarter and year to date 2005 cost as a percentage of revenue comparable or improved over prior periods.
The provision for doubtful accounts as a percentage of Vacation Ownership Interest sales was consistent at 4.4% of sales of Vacation Ownership Interests in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2005.
General and administrative expenses increased to 13.8% and 12.0% of total timeshare revenue for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, from 9.8% and 10.5% for the same periods in 2004. The increases for the three and six month periods primarily reflects increased contributions to the Company’s profit sharing and employee stock ownership plan, as well as increased charitable donations. The increased contributions were made due to the Company’s increased profit from the sale of its leasehold interest in a 44-acre real estate parcel in Las Vegas.
Lawsuit and settlement expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 contain the legal and settlement charges associated with the lawsuit that was filed against the Company, its Sedona Vacation Club (SVC) and Premiere Vacation Club (PVC) businesses in September 2003. A full explanation of the lawsuit is contained in Note 6 of the accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as well as under Item 1. Legal Proceedings in Part II. The legal and settlement expenses include the Company’s cost of “ILX Script” that it will issue to all SVC and PVC owners, printing and postage costs associated with printing and mailing of the “ILX Script,” the printing and the mailing of the Settlement Notice, legal expenses for the plaintiff’s attorneys and legal expenses for the Company’s representation. The Settlement Agreement received Court appro val in July, subject to appeal rights.
Income from land and other, net for the six months ended June 30, 2005 includes a net gain of $7,755,733 on the sale of VCA-NV’s leasehold interest in a 44-acre parcel of land located proximate to the Las Vegas airport, UNLV and the “Strip” in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 50-year leasehold interest with Clark County was originally acquired in July 2001 and was sold to Streets for $18,000,000 in April 2005. Streets funded the purchase with funds obtained through a Loan Agreement and Promissory Note with CanPartners. VCA-NV was a party to the Loan Agreement, Promissory Note and Leasehold Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Filing. VCA-NV participated solely as an accommodation party, without recourse liability of any material kind, to enable CanPartners to consummate the transaction and obtain lender’s title insurance. The docum ents provide for the release of VCA-NV at 91 days after recordation of Clark County’s Consent to the Assignment and Assumption of the Lease. Clark County fully consented to, and recorded the Assignment and Assumption of Lease in June 2005. The Loan Agreement, Promissory Note and Deed of Trust all contain identical “non-recourse to VCA” provisions. The non-recourse provisions resulted in VCA-NV having no material liability or ongoing obligation under the loan documents. At the April closing, the Company received $14,612,031 in cash which represented the $18,000,000 sales price plus $10,480 reimbursement for property taxes less $3,382,799 for payment in full of the note payable and accrued interest secured by the leasehold interest and $15,650 in closing costs. The full sales price was received and the Company was not obligated to perform activities after the sale, nor was it materially contingently liable on any debt on the property.
Interest expense increased 9.9% to $598,482 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $544,360 for the same period in 2004 and increased 9.6% to $1,203,492 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $1,097,608 for the same period in 2004, reflecting the combined net effect of higher interest rates on the Company’s variable rate notes and a lower average balance in 2005.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(CONTINUED)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Cash
The Company generates cash primarily from the sale of Vacation Ownership Interests (including Upgrades), from the financing of Customer Notes from such sales and from resort operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2005, cash provided by operations was $2,529,563 and $149,702, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by operations reflects a gain on sale of property and equipment due to the sale of the leasehold interest in Las Vegas which is deducted from cash flows from operations (and included in cash flows from investing activities), an increase in resort property under development for development of Premiere Vacation Club at the Roundhouse Resort and the acquisition of land in Puerto Penãsco, Mexico and Sedona, Arizona and a decrease in income taxes payable, offset by a decrease in resort property held for Vacation Ownership Interest sales due to greater additions in th e first half of 2004, increased accrued and other liabilities reflecting both accrual of the lawsuit and settlement expenses and timing differences between years and the net effect of increased net income and resultant income tax expense due to the sale of the leasehold interest in Las Vegas.
In April 2005, the Company sold its leasehold interest in a 44-acre parcel located proximate to the Las Vegas Airport, UNLV and the “Strip” in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Company acquired the 50-year leasehold interest in July 2001 and sold it to Streets Las Vegas, L.L.C. for $18,000,000. In conjunction with the closing, the note payable secured by the leasehold interest was paid in full for $3,382,799. In addition, the Company used proceeds from the sale of its Las Vegas leasehold interest to pay $2,000,000 in principal on an existing construction loan, $1,000,000 in principal on an existing note payable and $316,667 to pay an existing note in full.
For regular federal income tax purposes, the Company reports substantially all of its non-factored financed Vacation Ownership Interest sales under the installment method. Under the installment method, the Company recognizes income on sales of Vacation Ownership Interests only when cash is received by the Company in the form of a down payment, as an installment payment, or from proceeds from the sale of the Customer Note. The deferral of income tax liability conserves cash resources on a current basis. Interest may be imposed, however, on the amount of tax attributable to the installment payments for the period beginning on the date of sale and ending on the date the related tax is paid. If the Company is otherwise not subject to tax in a particular year, no interest is imposed since the interest is based on the amount of tax paid in that year. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain an accrual for any interest expense that would be paid on the deferred taxes related to the installment method, as the interest expense is not estimable.
At December 31, 2004, the Company, excluding its Genesis subsidiary, had no NOL carryforwards. At December 31, 2004, Genesis had federal NOL carryforwards of approximately $900,000, which are limited as to usage because they arise from built in losses of an acquired company. In addition, such losses can only be utilized through the earnings of Genesis and are limited to a maximum of $189,000 per year. To the extent the entire $189,000 is not utilized in a given year, the difference may be carried forward to future years. Any unused Genesis NOLs will expire in 2008.
In addition, Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes additional limitations on the utilization of NOLs by a corporation following various types of ownership changes, which result in more than a 50% change in ownership of a corporation within a three-year period. Such changes may result from new common stock issuances by the Company or changes occurring as a result of filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Schedules 13D and 13G by holders of more than 5% of the common stock, whether involving the acquisition or disposition of common stock. If such a subsequent change occurs, the limitations of Section 382 would apply and may limit or deny the future utilization of the NOL by the Company, which could result in the Company paying substantial additional federal and state taxes.

Uses of Cash
Investing activities typically reflect a net use of cash because of capital additions, however the sale of the Las Vegas leasehold interest resulted in net cash provided by investing activities of $17,501,375 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $832,633.
Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2005 was $1,602,284 and $10,044,780, respectively. In conjunction with the sale of the Las Vegas leasehold interest, the note payable secured by the leasehold interest was paid in full for $3,382,799. In addition the Company used proceeds from the sale to pay down $3,316,667 of existing notes payable.
The Company requires funds to finance the acquisitions of property for future resort development and to further develop the existing resorts, as well as to make capital improvements and support current operations.
Customer defaults have a significant impact on cash available to the Company from financing Customer Notes receivable in that notes which are more than 60 to 90 days past due are not eligible as collateral. As a result, the Company in effect must repay borrowings against such notes or buy back such notes if they were sold with recourse.
Credit Facilities and Capital
At June 30, 2005, the Company had an agreement with a financial institution for a commitment of $30 million, under which the Company may sell certain of its Customer Notes. The agreement provides for sales on a recourse basis with a purchase rate of prime plus 2.75%. Customer Notes may be sold at discounts or premiums to the principal amount in order to yield the purchase rate, with the premium held back by the financial institution as additional collateral. At June 30, 2005, the entire $30 million of such commitment was available to the Company.
The Company also has a financing commitment aggregating $30 million whereby the Company may borrow against notes receivable pledged as collateral. These borrowings bear interest at a rate of prime plus 1.5%. The $30 million commitment was amended in March 2005 and, under the amended agreement, the borrowing period expires in 2005 and the maturity is in 2010. At June 30, 2005, approximately $10.8 million was available under this commitment.
At June 30, 2004 and 2005, the Company had approximately $14.4 million and $13.8 million, respectively, in outstanding notes receivable sold on a recourse basis. Portions of the notes receivable are secured by deeds of trust on Los Abrigados Resort & Spa, VCA–South Bend and VCA–Tucson.
In March 2005 the Company entered into a $400,000, 36-month equipment lease.
In April 2005, the Company amended an existing note payable to extend the maturity date to April 30, 2006.
In May 2005, two revolving lines of credit with banks to provide working capital were amended to extend the maturity dates to May 2006.
In June 2005, the Company amended an existing construction loan to secure an additional $525,000 in construction financing for current projects.
In the first six months of 2005, the Company purchased 18,300 treasury shares for a cost of $178,273.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(CONTINUED)
In the future, the Company may negotiate additional credit facilities, issue corporate debt, issue equity securities, or any combination of the above. Any debt incurred or issued by the Company may be secured or unsecured, may bear interest at fixed or variable rates of interest, and may be subject to such terms as management deems prudent. While the Company believes it maintains excellent relationships with its lenders and will seek renewal or replacement of existing lines upon their maturity, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure additional corporate debt or equity at or beyond current levels or that the Company will be able to maintain its current level of debt. The Company may negotiate with additional lenders to supplement its existing credit facilities.
The Company believes available borrowing capacity, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company’s liquidity, operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Contractual Cash Obligations and Commercial Commitments
The following table presents the Company’s contractual cash obligations and commercial commitments as of June 30, 2005. The Company also sells consumer notes with recourse. The Company has no other significant contractual obligations or commercial commitments either on or off balance sheet as of this date.

Seasonality
The Company’s revenues are moderately seasonal with the volume of ILX owners, hotel guests and Vacation Ownership Interest exchange participants typically greatest in the second and third fiscal quarters. Also impacting revenues are inclement weather, forest fires and other unforeseen natural disasters. As the Company expands into new markets and geographic locations it may experience increased or additional seasonality dynamics which may cause the Company’s operating results to fluctuate.
Inflation
Inflation and changing prices have not had a material impact on the Company’s revenues, operating income and net income during any of the Company’s three most recent fiscal years or the six months ended June 30, 2005. However, to the extent inflationary trends affect interest rates, a portion of the Company’s debt service costs may be affected as well as the rates the Company charges on its Customer Notes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
In September 2003, the Company received pleadings indicating that a lawsuit against the Company and its Sedona Vacation Club and Premiere Vacation Club businesses was filed by two individuals claiming damages for deceptive and abusive practices on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of vacation ownership interests. The Company, Sedona Vacation Club and Premiere Vacation Club received amended complaints in May and June 2004. In both instances, named plaintiffs were added and deleted. The amended complaints were considerably more narrow in scope than the initial complaint. The suit alleged claims for breach of the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act, the Arizona Real Estate Timeshare Act, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. A motion for class certification was filed in October 2004 which contained the deletion of three existing class members and the proposed addition of three new class members. The Company and its counsel believed that the allegations were without merit and vigorously defended plaintiffs’ claims. The Company responded to the complaint, asserted counterclaims and filed certain motions in May 2004 and filed a disclosure statement in July 2004. The Company deposed the three individuals whom plaintiff’s counsel had identified as purported “class representatives.” The plaintiffs took no depositions. In April 2005, the Superior Court of Arizona In and For the County of Coconino granted preliminary approval of a Settlement Agreement (attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2005 and incorporated herein by reference). In the Settlement Agreement the Company denied each and every one of the Plaintiffs’ allegations of unlawful or wrongful conduct and injuries. A Notice to Owners of Timeshare Interests/Memberships in Sedona Vacation Club and/or Premiere Vacation Club (the “ Class Notice”) describing the proposed settlement was mailed to Premiere Vacation Club and Sedona Vacation Club members in May 2005. Class members had an opportunity to opt out of or object to the settlement. Approximately 25,700 notices were mailed to class members. 46 class members objected to the settlement and 128 opted out resulting in a non-disapproval percentage of 99.3%. A court hearing was held on July 26, 2005 and final approval of the Settlement Agreement was granted. The pre-tax legal and settlement expenses associated with the litigation were $623,440 and $634,377 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 as indicated in Lawsuit and settlement expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operation.
Other litigation has arisen in the normal course of the Company’s business, none of which is deemed to be material.
