TMP LAND MORTGAGE FUND, LTD.
A California Limited Partnership
The Partnership is a California Limited Partnership formed on November 15, 1991. TMP Properties (A California General Partnership) and TMP Investments, Inc. (A California Corporation) are the general partners ("General Partners"). The partners of TMP Properties are William O. Passo, Anthony W. Thompson and Scott E. McDaniel. William O. Passo and Anthony W. Thompson were the shareholders of TMP Investments, Inc. until October 1, 1995, when they sold their shares to TMP Group, Inc. and then became the shareholders of TMP Group, Inc.
The Partnership was formed principally to make short-term loans to unaffiliated parties secured by first trust deeds on unimproved properties, primarily in the Inland Empire area of Southern California and in some instances, in other areas of Southern California, and to provide cash distributions to the limited partners, primarily from interest earned on the mortgage loans. The Partnership is not a mutual fund or any other type of Investment Company within the meaning of, and is not subject to regulations under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Since its formation, the Partnership had received and accepted subscriptions of 15,715 units, representing total subscription proceeds in the amount of $15,715,000. All proceeds were committed to mortgage loan investments made by the Partnership and to working capital reserves. During 1992, the Partnership funded five mortgage loans, four loans were funded in 1993 and three loans were funded in 1994 for a total of twelve loans.
The General Partners manage and control the affairs of the Partnership, including final approval of all loans and investments, and have ultimate authority for matters affecting the interests of the Partnership. All

Note 2 - Organization of the Partnership (continued)
organization and offering expenses of the Partnership were paid by TMP Realty, an affiliate of the general partners, in exchange for loan fees (or points) on each mortgage loan.
As a consequence of adverse changes in market conditions and other economic and business factors, nine of the twelve loans went into default. The Partnership foreclosed on the properties secured by the defaulted loans and is in the process of developing and/or selling these properties.
The partnership agreement provides for two types of investments: Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) and others. The IRA minimum purchase requirement was $2,000 and all others were a minimum purchase requirement of $5,000. The maximum liability of the limited partners is the amount of their capital contribution.
Note 3 - Partners' Contributions
The Partnership raised capital through a public offering of units at $1,000 per unit. The minimum offering size was 1,000 units or $1,000,000. The maximum offering size was 20,000 units or $20,000,000. As of April 21, 1994, 15,715 units were sold for total capital contributions of $15,715,000 and the offering was closed.
Note 4 - Allocation of Profits and Losses and Cash Distributions
Profit, losses, and cash distributions are allocated ninety-nine percent to the limited partners and one percent to the general partners until the limited partners have received an amount equal to their capital contributions plus a cumulative, non-compounded return of eight percent per annum based on their adjusted capital account balances, at which time, remaining profits, losses and cash distributions are allocated seventy-six percent to the limited partners and twenty-four percent to the General Partners. Distributions of cash from operations, if any, are made monthly within 30 days after the end of the month.
On May 16, 2002 distributions of approximately $13,870 and $1,386,850 were made to the General Partners and limited partners, respectively, as a return of capital. On July 5, 2001 distributions of approximately $5,000 and $500,000 were made to the General Partners and limited partners, respectively, as a return of capital.

In April 1998, the General Partners entered into the Financing Agreement with PacWest Inland Empire, LLC (“PacWest”), whereby PacWest paid the General Partners and ten other related partnerships (“the TMP Land Partnerships”) a total of $300,000 and agreed to pay up to an additional $300,000 for any deficit capital accounts for these 11 partnerships in exchange for the rights to the general partners’ distributions; referred to as a “distribution fee” as defined by the Financing Agreement.
In addition, PacWest agreed to loan and/or secure a loan for the Partnership and the TMP Land Partnerships in the amount of $2,500,000. Loan proceeds will be allocated among the TMP Land Partnerships, based on partnership needs, from recommendations made by PacWest, and under the approval and/or direction of the General Partners. A portion of these funds will be loaned to the Partnership at 12% simple interest beginning April 1, 1998. The borrowings are secured by the Partnership’s properties, and funds will be loaned, as needed, in the opinion of the General Partners. These funds are not to exceed 50% of the 1997 appraised value of the properties, and will primarily be used to pay for on-going property maintenance, pay down existing debt, accrued property taxes and appropriate entitlement costs.
PacWest, at their option, can make additional advances with the agreement of the General Partners; however, the aggregate amount of cash loaned to the TMP Land Partnerships is limited to a maximum of $2,500,000. As of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the TMP Land Partnerships owe PacWest approximately $3,073,000 and $3,637,000 including advances & interest.
In April 1998, PacWest entered into a management, administrative and consulting agreement (the Management Agreement) with the General Partners to provide the Partnership with overall management, administrative and consulting services. Effective August 1, 2001, the Partnership entered into the First Amendment to the Management Agreement (“First Amendment���). The purpose of the First Amendment is to clarify and define certain language and the terms of the provisions of the Management Agreement. The Management Agreement, in its entirety, remains in effect apart from specific items discussed in the First Amendment.
