NOTE:  The sales proceeds at entrance fee CCRCs provide a source of financing to
the community,  thereby reducing the financing costs (interest or lease expense)
that it would otherwise  incur. As a result of the residents  paying an up-front
entrance  fee,  they pay a lower  monthly  service  fee than they would pay at a
similar  rental  community  without  entrance  fees.  As a result,  entrance fee
communities  have lower  operating  margins (but lower  non-operating  financing
costs) than similar rental communities.
