                   Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
          For the Unaudited Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Note A: Basis of Presentation

The  accompanying   unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the
accounts  of  Greenbriar   Corporation  and  its   majority-owned   subsidiaries
(collectively,  "the Company").  All significant  intercompany  transactions and
accounts have been eliminated.

The unaudited  financial  statements  included  herein have been prepared by the
Company  without audit,  pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange  Commission.  The financial statements reflect all adjustments that
are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information.
All such  adjustments  are of a normal  recurring  nature.  Although the Company
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading,   certain   information  and  footnote   disclosures,   including  a
description of significant  accounting  policies  normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting  principles generally accepted
in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations.

These financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.  Operating results for
the three month period ended March 31, 2004 are not  necessarily  indicative  of
the results  that may be expected for any  subsequent  quarter or the year ended
December 31, 2004.


Note B: Notes Receivable and Deferred Gain From  Sale Of Property

As a result of the sale of two communities in 2001 the Company holds  tax-exempt
notes in the amount of $4,030,000  bearing interest at 9.5%. The notes mature on
April 1, 2032, and August 1, 2031 respectively.

The  repayment  of the  notes  is  limited  to the cash  flow of the  respective
communities either from operations,  refinance or sale. The Company has deferred
gains in the amount of $3,720,000.  The deferred gains and interest  income will
be recognized as cash is received.

Note C: Affiliated Partnerships

In October 2001,  the Company became a 56% limited  partner in Corinthians  Real
Estate Investors,  LP ("CREI"),  a partnership formed to acquire two properties.
The general partner is a limited  liability  corporation whose sole member is W.
Michael  Gilley,  the son of a former  CEO of the  Company.  Sylvia  Gilley,  W.
Michael  Gilley's  mother,  has a 25.9% interest,  the general partner has a .1%
interest,  the Company's  current chief executive  officer has a 10.5% interest,
and other employees of the Company have interests  aggregating  7.5%. In October
2001,  the  Partnership   acquired  a  retirement  community  for  approximately
$9,100,000  and in January  2002, it acquired an assisted  living  community for
approximately $2,800,000.



                                       7


The Company  issued a $1,600,000  note to the seller as partial  payment for the
purchase of the retirement community. CREI gave the Company a $1,600,000 note as
consideration  for payment of that amount of the purchase price.  The balance of
the purchase price was funded by CREI's borrowings from a third party.

In September  2002 CREI sold its two  properties for cash and notes and paid off
its  third  party  debt.  As part of the  proceeds,  CREI  received  a note  for
$1,600,000  due  September  30, 2004,  which was  transferred  to the Company in
satisfaction  of its $1,600,000 note receivable from CREI. CREI also assigned to
the Company a $400,000  participation in another note due September 30, 2004, in
payment of all other CREI debt to the Company.

The Company transferred the $1,600,000 note it received to the original owner of
the  retirement  community  in payment of the  Company's  $1,600,000  debt.  The
Company guaranteed payment of the $1,600,000 note.

The Company has deferred  recognition of its $740,000 share of the gain from the
2002  sale  of  CREI's  property  because  of the  aforementioned  guaranty.  In
addition,  CREI has deferred a gain of $994,000  that will be  recognized on the
installment  method.  The Company will realize its $557,000 (56%) portion of the
$994,000 upon  collection of the notes held by CREI. The notes are due September
30, 2004.

Following are unaudited, condensed financial statements of CREI (in thousands):

Note F - Discontinued Operations

On January  31,  2004 the  Company  terminated  a lease for an  assisted  living
community in Georgia.  The  operations of that  community have been reflected as
discontinued operations for 2004 and 2003.

Note G - Segments

The Company and its  subsidiaries  are  principally  engaged in the  business of
acquiring,  enhancing  and  selling  real  estate  properties.  Since 1996 those
activities have, almost  exclusively,  involved assisted living  facilities.  In
December 2003 the Company acquired an outlet mall.

Effective August 1, 2003 the Company acquired 100% of the stock in Gaywood Oil &
Gas LLC, a limited  liability company that owns working interests in certain oil
producing  wells.   The  acquisition  was  done  for  investment   purposes  and
substantially all costs associated with the oil and gas operations are operating
expenses incurred directly by Gaywood.

The Company continues to allocate all of its corporate  overhead expenses to its
core real estate operation.

Segment  information and  reconciliation to income (loss) from operations are as
follows:

Note H - Contingencies

Benetic Financial vs. Wedgwood et al:

This action is against a  subsidiary  of the Company as well as other  corporate
and individual  defendants who are unrelated to the Company.  In 1993,  Wedgwood
Retirement Inns entered into a financing  arrangement with a third party lender.
Plaintiff Benetic alleged that he had a verbal brokerage agreement with Wedgwood
and was entitled to a fee. The Company acquired Wedgwood in 1996.

In a  jury  trial  the  plaintiff  was  awarded  $150,000  on one  count  of his
complaint.  However,  the jury found for the defendants on all other counts.  In
his final ruling the judge awarded the defendants legal fees that were in excess
of the  judgment.  The plaintiff  appealed and on April 30, 2003 the  California
Court of Appeals let the $150,000  stand but reversed the judge's award of legal
fees. Based upon the ruling of the Court of Appeals the defendants are obligated
for the judgment plus $165,093 in interest  since 1993.  The judgment is against
all the defendants as a group.



                                       10


It was  ultimately  determined  that  the  Company's  portion  of  the  judgment
including interest was approximately $230,000. The Company established a reserve
for this obligation prior to 2004.


Internal Revenue Service Pre-Assessment Letter

In  December  1991 the  Company  sold  four  nursing  homes to a  not-for-profit
corporation  in exchange for tax exempt bonds issued on behalf of the  acquiring
corporation by government  authorities.  The bonds were issued in three lettered
series:  A, B and C. The  aggregate  principal  amount of the Series A bonds was
$8,700,000,  the aggregate principal amount of the series B bonds was $1,000,000
and the aggregate  amount of the series C bonds was $6,700,000.  Interest on the
bonds was payable  semi-annually.  A nationally  recognized law firm opined that
interest on the bonds would be tax-exempt.

In March 1992,  pursuant to a plan  promulgated  and recommended by a nationally
recognized  investment  banking firm,  the Series C bonds were converted to zero
coupon  status  and their  value  was  enhanced  by  substituting  higher  grade
collateral.  The  substitute  collateral,  which  consisted  of zero coupon U.S.
Treasury  obligations,  was  placed in trust to defease  the Series C bonds,  in
exchange  for the  underlying  mortgage.  The  Series C bonds were then sold for
approximately $47,000,000. A gain was recorded equal to the proceeds received by
the Company of $6,252,000 after deducting  transaction costs and the cost of the
higher  grade  collateral.  A  nationally  recognized  law firm  opined that the
defeasance of the bonds would not adversely affect the tax exempt status.

In December 1992,  again  pursuant to a plan  promulgated  and  recommended by a
nationally recognized investment banking firm, the Series A bonds were converted
to zero coupon  status,  their value enhanced by  substituting  zero coupon U.S.
Treasury  obligations  as  collateral  and the  collateral  placed  in  trust in
exchange for the mortgage underlying the Series A bonds in a transaction similar
to the sale of the  Series C  bonds.  The  Series  A bonds  were  then  sold for
approximately $20,000,000. A gain was recorded equal to the proceeds received by
the Company of $2,081,000 after deducting  transaction costs and the cost of the
higher grade collateral.

On January 8, 2004 the Company  was  notified by the  Internal  Revenue  Service
(IRS) in the  form of a  Section  6700  Pre-Assessment  Letter  that the IRS was
considering  assessing penalties under Section 6700 of the Internal Revenue Code
as a result of the Company's  organization  or assistance in connection with the
issuance and sale of the Series A and Series C bonds.

In  general,  Section  6700 of the IRS Code  imposes a penalty  on any person or
organization who organizes or assists in organizing an entity or participates in
the sale of any interest in an entity and makes or  furnishes or causes  another
person to make or  furnish a  statement  with  respect to the  allowably  of any
deduction,  the excludability of any income which the person knows or has reason
to know is false or fraudulent as to any material matter.

The penalty prescribed in Section 6700 is the lesser of 100% of the gross income
derived  from the  activity  or $1,000 for each such  activity.  Each  entity or
arrangement shall be treated as a separate activity.



                                       11


If it is ultimately  determined that the Company is subject to a fine, that fine
would be the lesser of $1,000 per  activity  or the gross  proceeds  the Company
received. Effectively the fine would be calculated based upon a determination as
to what  constitutes  an  activity.  The IRS has  informed  the Company that the
Series A and C bonds were  purchased  by 266  individuals  or  entities.  If the
penalty is computed by considering each sale an activity the maximum exposure to
the  Company  would be  $267,000.  However,  neither  Section  6700 nor,  to the
Company's knowledge,  relevant authorities specify what constitutes an activity.
The IRS has  indicated  that the $1,000 per  activity  should be  computed  in a
manner other than the number of individuals who purchased the bonds however they
have not indicated to the Company any basis or authority for their position.  If
the IRS's  assertions  as to the number of activities  exceeds 8,333  activities
then the Company  believes  the  maximum  exposure  would be the total  proceeds
received and income recorded of $8,333,000.

The  transactions  which  the  IRS is  examining  involved  technically  complex
financial and legal issues and were  undertaken on the advice of and reliance on
the investment banking firm, the law firms that issued the tax exempt bond legal
opinions  and  other  professionals.  The  Company  believed  in 1992 and  still
believes that its actions were appropriate in all respects.

The Company  and the IRS are engaged in  negotiations  regarding  settling  this
twelve year old matter.  However, there is no assurance that any settlement will
be achieved. In the absence of a settlement,  the Company intends to contest the
IRS's position in court.  Any  litigation  may be expensive and time  consuming.
However,  if this matter is litigated the Company  believes that it will prevail
on the  merits.  Should it not  prevail in this  matter the  Company  intends to
pursue actions against the  professionals  who advised the Company regarding the
sales of the bonds.

Other

The  Company  has been named as a defendant  in other  lawsuits in the  ordinary
course of business.  Management  is of the opinion that these  lawsuits will not
have a material effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company.


ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS


Overview

As of March 31, 2004, the Company owned one assisted living community and leased
one assisted living community in two states with a capacity of 200 residents. In
addition,  the Company owns one  assisted  living  community  that is leased and
operated by an independent third party with a capacity of 41 residents.

On December 10, 2003 the Company acquired the Gainesville Factory Outlet Mall in
Gainesville, TX. The mall has approximately 315,000 sq ft. of retail space which
is leased to a number of  nationally  know  retail  operations  as well as local
vendors



                                       12


Effective August 1, 2003 the Company acquired Gaywood Oil & Gas, LLC (Gaywood) a
company  that has oil and gas leases in the East Texas  field.  The oil wells in
this field have low but steady production.  There are approximately 200 existing
wells  on the  leases  owned  by  Gaywood.  As of May 14,  2004  Gaywood  had 52
operating  wells,  generating  approximately  4,000  barrels  of oil per  month.
Gaywood,  based upon the price of oil and available  financing,  intends to open
additional  wells.  However,  Greenbriar  does  not,  at this  time,  anticipate
acquiring additional oil and gas properties. The purpose of this acquisition was
to acquire a cash  flowing  asset with future  potential  value in excess of the
purchase price.


Three month  period  ended March 31, 2004  compared to three month  period ended
March 31, 2003.


Revenues and operating expenses from assisted living operations

Revenues for the assisted living  communities were $909,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $745,000  for the three  months  ended March
31,  2003.  Community  operating  expenses,  which  consist of  assisted  living
community expenses, lease expense, depreciation and amortization,  were $753,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to $778,000 for the months
ended March 31, 2003

The  increase  in  revenue  is  due  principally  to  increased  census  at  the
communities.  The  reduction  in expenses  represents  an overall  reduction  in
operating costs.

Corporate General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative  expenses were $289,000 for the three and nine months
ended  September  30, 2003 compared to $142,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2003.

During the later part of 2001 and 2002 the Company  sold,  leased or disposed of
26 communities. In October 2001, principally to help the Company's cash flow due
to  its  reduced  size,  the  senior  officers  agreed  to  substantial   salary
reductions.  In lieu of salary  the  Company  agreed to allow  the  officers  to
participate  in future  acquisitions.  In October  2003 the  Company's  Board of
Directors decided that the officers would no longer participate in the ownership
of acquired  entities.  The Board agreed to increase certain officers'  salaries
effective  January 1, 2003.  The  increase  in salaries as compared to the prior
year period  accounted  for  approximately  $50,000 in increased  expenses.  The
balance of the additional expenses is due to additional  administrative salaries
and  expenses  due to the  additions  of the  outlet  mall  and  the oil and gas
operations  as well as additional  legal fees due to the Company's  dispute with
the Internal Revenue Service.

Interest Income

Interest  income  increased to $74,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004
as compared to $54,000 for the three months  ended March 31, 2004.  The increase
in interest income is due to an increase in interest from the sale of properties
which occurred in the prior two years.




                                       13


Interest Expense

Interest expense increased to $356,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004
as compared  $196,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The increase in
interest  expense is due almost  entirely to the financing of the acquisition of
the Gainesville Factory Outlet Mall

Other Income (Expense)

Other Income for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $9,000 as compared to
$58,000 for the three months  ended March 31, 2003  $109,000  respectively.  The
other income in 2003 represents income from the settlement of a lawsuit.

Discontinued Operations

On January 31,  2004 the  company  terminated  a lease for the  operation  of an
assisted  living  community in Georgia.  The operating  losses for the community
were  $14,000  and $21,000  for the three  months  ended March 31, 2004 and 2003
respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31,  2004,  the Company had current  assets of  $2,437,000  and current
liabilities of $11,396,000

In  December  2003  the  Company   acquired  the  Gainesville   Outlet  Mall  in
Gainesville,  Texas. The Company paid approximately $800,000 in cash and a short
term obligation to pay the seller  approximately  $5,571,000.  In addition,  the
Company has spent approximately $400,000 for purchase costs, financing costs and
working capital for the mall. The Company has negotiated long term financing and
anticipates closing during the second quarter of 2004.

Also included in current  liabilities  is an obligation of principal and accrued
interest  to Sylvia  Gilley,  wife of a former  president  of the  Company,  for
$2,548,000.  The terms of this obligation are similar to that of preferred stock
whereby  the  Company  can only  pay this  obligation  out of  available  earned
surplus.

Future  acquisitions  by the Company are dependent  upon  obtaining  capital and
financing  through  various  means,  including  financing  obtained  from loans,
sale/leaseback  transactions,  long-term  state bond  financing,  debt or equity
offerings and, to the extent  available,  cash generated from operations.  There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate  capital to
finance its projected growth.




                                       14


Operating  activities  used $465,000 of cash in the three months ended March 31,
2004 and $464,000 in the similar period in 2003.

Investing  Activities  provided $651,000 of cash in the three months ended March
31,  2004 and used  $45,000  of cash in the  similar  period  in 2003.  The cash
provided  in 2004  includes  $638,000  from  the  collection  of  certain  notes
receivable.  These  notes were from the sale of certain  properties  in 2002 and
2003.

Financing  activities  used $579,000 in cash in the three months ended March 31,
2004 and provided  $14,000 in cash in the similar  period in 2003. The cash used
in 2004 was for the  repayment of short term debt incurred by the Company in the
latter part of 2003.


Forward Looking Statements

"Safe Harbor"  Statement under the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of
1995:  A number of the matters and subject  areas  discussed in this filing that
are not  historical or current facts deal with potential  future  circumstances,
operations,  and prospects.  The discussion of such matters and subject areas is
qualified  by  the  inherent   risks  and   uncertainties   surrounding   future
expectations generally, and also may materially differ from the Company's actual
future  experience  involving  any one or more of such matters and subject areas
relating to interest  rate  fluctuations,  ability to obtain  adequate  debt and
equity  financing,  demand,  pricing,  competition,   construction,   licensing,
permitting,  construction delays on new developments  contractual and licensure,
and other delays on the disposition,  transition,  or restructuring of currently
or previously owned, leased or managed  communities in the Company's  portfolio,
and the  ability of the  Company to  continue  managing  its costs and cash flow
while  maintaining  high occupancy rates and market rate assisted living charges
in its assisted living  communities.  The Company has attempted to identify,  in
context,  certain of the factors  that they  currently  believe may cause actual
future experience and results to differ from the Company's current  expectations
regarding  the  relevant  matter of  subject  area.  These  and other  risks and
uncertainties  are detailed in the Company's  reports filed with the  Securities
and Exchange  Commission  (SEC),  including the Company's Annual Reports on Form
10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.


ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Nearly  all of the  Company's  debt is  financed  at fixed  rates  of  interest.
Therefore  the  Company has  minimal  risk from  exposure to changes in interest
rates.
