BUSINESS. -------- (a) Uptowner Inns, Inc., (the "Company" or "registrant"), was incorporated in the State of West Virginia on July 1, 1961. The registrant operates a 137 room, full service hotel, the Uptowner Inn, built in 1962 by the registrant and operated by the registrant. In January 1997, the Holiday Inn franchise under which it had been operating was terminated. In July 1999, the Company entered into a franchise agreement with Travel Lodge for the facility. This agreement was terminated in June 2001. In late August 1998, the registrant opened a 135 room Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites facility adjacent to the Huntington Civic Arena. The franchise agreement under which it operates generally requires standard fees for advertising, reservation system, etc. The hotel clientele are predominantly business travelers due to the downtown location. The occupancy rate at the Uptowner Inn averaged 30% in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 with an average room rate of $46. This yielded a revenue for available rooms of $5,111 for the fiscal year. The new Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites occupancy for the year averaged 74% with an average room rate of $81. This yielded a revenue for available rooms of $21,762. A wholly owned subsidiary of the registrant, Motel and Restaurant Supply, which was incorporated in the State of West Virginia on July 16, 1966, has had no activity since 1981. Neither the registrant nor its subsidiary have experienced bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings; has been involved in reclassification, merger or consolidation; has acquired or, except as hereinafter set forth, disposed of any material amount of assets otherwise than in the ordinary course of business; or has undertaken any material change in the mode of conducting its business. (b) The registrant is engaged in substantially two lines of businesses, to wit, the operation of hotels with dining and banquet facilities, and residential/commercial rentals. The income of the registrant from rentals did not exceed ten percent of the consolidated revenue of the registrant and its subsidiaries for years ended June 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999. Consolidated revenue did not exceed $50,000,000. during any of the last three fiscal years. The hotel industry is highly competitive with the registrant competing against numerous national hotel franchises in Huntington, West Virginia. As the Company's operations are generally one business segment, its competition locally includes Radisson hotel, Ramada Inn, Comfort Inn, Red Roof Inn, and Hampton Inn. Seasonality directly affects this business as a result of people not traveling or vacationing in large numbers in the late fall and winter because of poor weather at these geographical locations. -3- ITEM 1.

This purchase was finalized in October 1988 from an option entered into in 1983. The property is currently used as a parking lot until it is deemed beneficial to build and operate a motel in that location. (j) The registrant purchased a parcel of real estate with a residential building in January 1990. This property is across an alley from the main motor hotel and was acquired for future development and parking. (k) The registrant purchased a parcel of real estate with a building housing residential and commercial tenants in July 1991. This property is across the street from its main motor hotel and adjacent to other rental properties and parking facilities. The property has been renovated and is now fully utilized as rental property. The property is subject to a mortgage in favor of West Virginia Housing Development Fund in the original amount of $500,000, 5.5% rate of interest, maturing November 2018, the balance of which is $412,310 at June 30, 2001.

Annual reviews of insurance coverage are done and adequate insurance is maintained on all properties. -5- ITEM 3.

The increase in operating revenues and income from operations in 1999, 2000 and 2001 were entirely the result of the opening of the new Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites, which operated for over ten months in 1999 and the full year in 2000 and 2001. -7- ITEM 7.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: (Continued) ------------------------------------------------- The motor inn revenues increased in 2000 and 1999 due to the opening of the new facility in late August 1998. Due to the Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites becoming an established property within the Huntington market, the occupancy rate at this facility increased from 67% in 2000 to 74% in 2001 which resulted in an overall increase in motor inn revenues in 2001. Additionally, room revenues from the Uptowner Inn increased in 2001 due to an increase in the occupancy rate attributable to increased demand for newly renovated rooms. The acquisition of the Travelodge franchise for this facility was expected to improve revenues, but did not generate the expected revenues forecasted. As a result, the Travelodge franchise was terminated in June, 2001. The Uptowner inn occupancy rate of 30% in 2000 is expected to decline in 2001 due to new competition in the immediate market area. The decrease in food and beverage revenue is attributed to the elimination of the Uptowner Inn restaurant facility in August of 2000. Rents decreased in 1999, 2000 and 2001 due to the disposal of various rental units during 1999 and 2000. -9- ITEM 7.

Advertising increased in 1999 and 2000 due to the room revenue increase that affected the change under the Holiday Inn franchise for advertising. Utilities increased in 1999 and 2000 due to the increased business in the fiscal year. Salaries, repairs and maintenance, taxes and license, and insurance and other increased in 1999 and 2000 due to adding a second property. Total cost and expenses decreased by a modest 1.2% in 2001 compared to 2000. Most of the individual categories of costs and expenses for 2001 are relatively consistent with 2000 due to stabilization of the new facility which opened in August 1998. Advertising increased in 2001 due to continued marketing efforts relating to the Holiday Inn facility. -10- ITEM 7.

Costs and expenses have increased $1,418,668 in 1999 and $598,555 in 2000, while costs and expenses have decreased $41,701 in 2001, resulting in an increase in operating income of $458,762 in 1999, $57,583 in 2000 and $111,482 in 2001. Management is evaluating the Uptowner facility in order to find new alternatives of generating revenue from the older facility. Continued monitoring of costs and expenses will be done to improve the operating results for the Company. For further discussion, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources", which follows. Any of the alternatives pursued could Result in an impairment adjustment, and, or reclassification in the balance sheet. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ------------------------------- 2001 2000 ---- ---- <s> <c> <c> Resources available at June 30, 2001 and 2000 Cash $186,912 $348,064 The liquidity, as measured by current assets divided by current liabilities, has slightly increased from .25 in 2000 to .30 in 2001. This relatively low level of liquidity is a result of continued under-utilization of the Uptowner Inn facility coupled with the costs necessary to maintain the operation. -11- ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: (Continued) ------------------------------------------------- Management is currently evaluating alternatives for the Uptowner Inn facility, and expects to have a plan in place by the second quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001. The alternatives being explored include converting the facility to higher-income producing property. Two potential alternatives include converting the facility to a multi-unit apartment complex or to a multi-unit elderly care living center. It is anticipated either alternative selected will require renovations of the facility to conform to the ultimate use. It is also anticipated any required capital will be obtained through debt financing. A third alternative is to sell the property, as is, in an orderly liquidation. Management is currently evaluating its current financing arrangements regarding the Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites facility. Any potential refinancing may provide for lower levels of debt service requirements as well as additional working capital. Management is also evaluating its owned rental property and other real estate for potential sale to enhance the liquidity of the Company. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS -------------------------- Certain matters disclosed herein may be deemed to be forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including the facilities utilization, costs associated with maintaining the operations, liquidity issues, and other risks. Actual strategies and results in future time periods may differ materially from those currently expected. Such forward- looking statements represent management's judgment as of the current date. The registrant disclaims, however, any intent of obligation to update such forward-looking statements. -12- UPTOWNER INNS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Item 8.

Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. I. Capitalized interest: Interest costs are capitalized when proceeds are used to finance the construction of assets. Capitalized interest for fiscal year ending June 30, 1999 was $66,944. J. Advertising: Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred. K.

The assets acquired are being actively marketed for sale and are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as property held for sale. The carrying value is reflected at the lower of cost or market consisting of land and building of $59,310 and $270,190, respectively. In addition, an investment was acquired in the amount of $35,000. Liabilities were assumed of $272,935 and a promissory note issued for $91,565. As of June 30, 2001, the balance of the promissory note is $66,546 and is included in Note 2.

Income taxes: The Company did not provide any current or deferred federal or state income tax provision or benefit for all periods presented. This differs from applying the federal statutory rate of 34% to income (loss) before income taxes. The difference represents the recognition of a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset, consisting primarily of net operating losses, because of uncertainty regarding its realizability. The Company has utilized the operating loss carryforward, and has reduced the unused operating loss carryforwards due to expire in June 30, 2002. The Company has available at June 30, 2001, unused operating loss carryforwards that may be applied against future taxable income and that expire as follows: -27- UPTOWNER INNS, INC.

Contingencies, risks and uncertainties: A $10 million suit in which the Uptowner Inns, Inc. was a defendant was previously filled by an individual who was severely injured in an auto accident by a patron of the lounge. During the year ended June 30, 2001, the court has issued a summary judgment in this suit and accordingly this suit has been dismissed. The Company is involved in various other claims and legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, the resolution of which management believes will not have a material effect on the Company's business or financial condition. The Company maintains cash balances at a bank. Accounts at the institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. At times, cash balances were in excess of federally insured limits. Included in the accompanying balance sheet is net property and equipment related to the Uptowner Inn facility with a carrying value of approximately $1.9 million at June 30, 2001. Due to the underutilization of the facility resulting, in part, from increased competition, management is evaluating alternative uses for the facility. In the event an acceptable alternative use cannot be implemented, management may opt to sell the property. Any of the alternatives pursued could potentially result in an impairment adjustment, and/or reclassification in the consolidated balance sheet. 7. Commitments: On June 28, 2000, the Uptowner Inns, Inc. entered into a franchise agreement for the construction of a new Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites in the amount of $50,000.
