<F1> Mid-Atlantic Realty Trust (MART) is in the specialized real estate industry
     for which the current/noncurrent  distinction is deemed in practice to have
     little or no  relevance.  Therefore,  MART  prepares  unclassified  balance
     sheets which do not report current assets or current liabilities.
