SOUTHWARD VENTURES DEPOSITARY TRUST NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 1999 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. 2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES PENDING LITIGATION In 1993, the Trust filed a complaint against an individual asserting claims for conversion and civil theft in relation to computer hardware and software which was ordered, paid for, but never delivered to the specified entity . The Trust did not prevail in a jury trial of the civil theft case. The Trust undertook an appeal of the adverse decision that was entered on April 15, 1997. On February 24, 1999 the Trust's appeal was denied. Since the Trust was not successful in that claim, the defendant's attorney fees and costs could be assessed against the Trust. In the opinion of the Trustee, it is not possible at this time to assess the amount of such fees and costs. However, as the matter has been vigorously litigated since 1993, these fees and costs could be substantial and have a material effect on the financial statements. A Motion to Tax Costs was heard on September 26, 1997. Although the judgement has not been entered as of this date, it is expected that the Defendant will be awarded against the Trust approximately $2,634 for costs plus interest from the date the judgement is signed. The amount of attorneys' fees to be awarded, if any, will require judicial determination at a future date. BAHAMIAN REAL PROPERTY TAXES The Trust has been advised by the Ministry of Finance of the Commonwealth of the Bahamas that property taxes pertaining to lots located on Great Harbour Cay were not included in a prior settlement that was understood to encompass all of the Trusts' properties on Great Harbour Cay. The Trust does not currently possess sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amount of liability to be recorded. However, the Trust believes that based upon future developments and determinations, it is possible the amount could have a material effect on the financial statements.
