                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income for the quarter ended March 31 was $132.000 in 2000 as compared
to $53,000 in 1999.

     Consolidated revenues for the quarter ended March 31 increased from
$4,263,000 in 1999 to $4,570,000 in 2000. Oil and gas revenues increased by
$136,000 due to increases in the price of crude oil. Real estate revenues
increased from $3,054,000 in 1999 to $3,225,000 in 2000. This increase is due to
higher rents.

     Total costs and expenses for the quarter ended March 31 increased slightly,
amounting to $3,547,000 in 2000 compared with $3,410,000 in 1999. Oil and gas
production expenses increased $5,000, real estate operating expenses increased
by $51,000, depreciation, depletion and amortization increased by $109,000, and
general and administrative expenses decreased by $28,000. The increase in real
estate operating expenses is attributable to the properties acquired in 1998.

     The Company realized gains on sales of marketable securities of $34,000
in 1999, there were no gains in 2000.

     Interest expense increased from $988,000 in 1999 to $1,024,000 in 2000.
This increase is attributable to higher interest rates on variable debt in 2000.

     The provision for income taxes includes Federal, state and Canadian taxes.
Differences between the effective tax rate and the statutory income tax rates
are principally due to foreign resource tax credits in Canada and the dividend
exclusion in the United States.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At March 31, 2000 the Company had approximately $5 million in marketable
securities at market value. The current ratio at March 31, 2000 was 1.4 to 1,
which management considers adequate for the Company's current business. The
Company's working capital was approximately $2.7 million at March 31, 2000.

     The Company anticipates that cash provided by operating activities and
investing activities will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements to
acquire oil and gas properties and to drill and evaluate these and other oil and
gas properties presently held by the Company. The level of oil and gas capital
expenditures will vary in future periods depending on market conditions,
including the price of oil and the demand for natural gas, and other related
factors. As the Company has no material long-term commitments with respect to
its oil and gas capital expenditure plans, the Company has a significant degree
of flexibility to adjust the level of its expenditures as circumstances warrant.

     The Company plans to actively continue its exploration and production
activities as well as search for the acquisition of oil and gas producing
properties and of companies with desirable oil and gas producing properties.
There can be no assurance that the Company will in fact locate any such
acquisitions.

     The Company also will explore real estate acquisitions as they arise. The
timing of any such acquisition will depend on, among other things, economic
conditions and the favorable evaluation of specific opportunities presented to
the Company. The Company is currently planning further acquisitions of
investment properties during the next year. Accordingly, while the Company
anticipates that it will actively explore these and other real estate
acquisition opportunities, no assurance can be given that any such acquisition
will occur.

     Net cash provided by operating activities was $627,000 in 2000 and
$1,996,000 in 1999. The decrease in 2000 was primarily due to changes in
operating assets and liabilities.

     Net cash used in investing activities was $(640,000) in 2000 and
$(1,125,000) in 1999. The variations principally relate to property, equipment
additions and transactions in securities. Proceeds from sales and redemptions of
securities amounted to $124,000 in 1999. There were no sales in 2000.

     Net cash used in financing activities was $(247,000) in 2000 and
$(1,017,000) in 1999. The variation principally relates to the issuance of
long-term debt in connection with real estate properties during the respective
quarters as well as principal payments of long-term debt. In addition, the
Company acquired approximately $733,000 of treasury stock in 2000.

     The Company believes it has adequate capital resources to fund operations
for the foreseeable future.
