("TFI"), is the current owner and holder of a Promissory Note issued May 8, 1998 in the stated principal amount of $836,000 by Warwick, which Note has been the subject of three modifications (the "WSSI Note"), with the present stated principal balance of $1,752,984.04. The WSSI Note is secured, in part, by an accommodation pledge of all of the issued and outstanding stock of Warwick to Universal. On November 30, 2003, the Company transferred to Warwick all of the membership interest in GRE to Warwick. On December 31, 2003, Warwick acquired from the Company 200,130 shares of Company Common Stock (approximately 20.48% of the outstanding after giving effect to its issuance) at a price of $3.96 per share in cash (a total of $792,583), which was paid by a credit on an obligation of the Company to Warwick in the amount of $792,583. Immediately after the consummation of the transaction, on December 31, 2003, Warwick contributed to the capital of GRE all 200,130 shares. Warwick and GRE filed an original Statement on Schedule 13D with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 20, 2004 with respect to such acquisition of 200,130 shares of the Company, to which reference is hereby made. While the 200,130 shares held by GRE are not direct collateral for the WSSI Note, if Universal were to foreclose upon or otherwise acquire the collateral for the WSSI Note, Universal (and correspondingly TFI) might be deemed to have an ability to affect the transfer or voting of the 200,130 shares of Company Common Stock owned by GRE. TFI has no present intention to cause Universal to foreclose upon or otherwise acquire the collateral for the WSSI Note so long as no default occurs which is not appropriately remedied. (5) Richard D. Morgan, President of Warwick, is Vice President of Tara Management, Inc. ("Tara"). Tara is a consultant to the Company. Mr. Morgan holds an option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $2.60 per share exercisable through December 15, 2008.

Stock Option PlanPlan. The Board of Directors administers the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan") and the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan") each of which provides for grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options to the Company's executive officers, as well as its directors and other key employees, 5 and consultants. Under the two Plans, options are granted to provide incentives to participants to promote long-term performance of the Company and specifically, to retain and motivate senior management in achieving a sustained increase in stockholder value. Currently, neither Plannone of the Plans has a pre-set formula or criteria for determining the number of options that may be granted. The exercise price for an option granted is determined by the compensation committee, in an amount not less than 100 percent of the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. The compensation committee reviews and evaluates the overall compensation package of the executive officers and determines the awards based on the overall performance of the Company and the individual performance of the executive officers. The Company currently has reservedCompany's stock plans total 50,000 shares of common stock under the 1997 Plan and 50,000 shares of common stock under the 2000 Plan. As of September 13, 2004 50,000 optionsOptions have been issuedgranted for all shares reserved under the 1997 Plan and 10,000 options have issuedshares for the 2000 Plans.Plan. Compensation of Directors The Company pays each non-employee director a fee of $2,500 per year, plus a meeting fee of $2,000 for each board meeting attended. Company employee directors serve with no fees being paid. CableTEL AD pays each of its three directors $6,200 per month. REPORT OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS ON COMPENSATION The compensation paid to the Company's executive officers is reviewed and approved annually by the independent members of the board of directors acting as the Company's Compensation Committee. In addition to approving annual compensation for the Company's executive officers, the independent directors approve any incentive awards for executive officers and other key employees, any stock option grants and additional benefits. 6 The Company's compensation philosophy is to attract, retain and reward executives who have shown they are capable of leading the Company in achieving its business objectives and performance goals. These objectives include preserving and increasing the Company's asset value; positioning the Company's operations in geographic markets offering long term, profitable growth opportunities; preserving and enhancing shareholder value and keeping the Company competitive in its marketing and operations. The accomplishment of these objectives is measured against conditions prevalent in the assisted living industry. In recent years the industry has grown to be a highly competitive industry for residents, real estate and services in a rapidly changing regional and national environment. The board of directors determined that the primary forms of executive compensation should be the incentive system discussed above. The Company's performance is a key consideration (to the extent that such performance can be fairly attributed or related to an executive's performance) and each executive's responsibilities and capabilities are key considerations. The independent directors strive to keep executive compensation competitive for comparable positions in other corporations where possible. In addition, the Compensation Committee believes in equity compensation wherein executives will be additionally rewarded based on increasing the Company's shareholder value. Base salaries are predicated on a number of factors, including: o recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer; o knowledge of similarly situated executives at other companies; o the executive's position and responsibilities within the Company; o the board of directors' subjective evaluation of the executive's contribution to the Company's performance; o the executive's experience and o the term of the executive's tenure with the Company. Chief Executive Officer Compensation The board of directors reviewed the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer in connection with the amendment to his Employment Agreement described above. The board approved the compensation plan set forth in that agreement as the best means to accomplish the Company's objectives. The board does not formally link the Chief Executive Officer's compensation to the performance of the Company.Company received no compensation from CabelTel International Corporation in 2004, but receives a salary of (euro)5,000 per month as a director of CableTEL AD. 6 Independent Directors Roz Campisi Beadle James Huffstickler Dan Locklear Victor L.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED] _________________________ 1 The Company considers its peer group to be public companies whose business is primarily in the retirement and/or assisted living industry. Those companies are American Retirement Corporation, ARV Assisted Living, Inc., Assisted Living Concepts, Inc., Emeritus Corporation and Sunrise Assisted Living, Inc. 10 Certain Relationships and Related Transactions The following paragraphs describe certain transactions between the Company and any stockholder beneficially owning more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, the executive officers and directors of the Company, director nominees and members of the immediate family or affiliates of any of them, which occurred since the beginning of the 20032004 fiscal year. In March 1996 the Company purchased Wedgwood Retirement Inns, Inc. ("WRI"). The primary shareholder of WRI was Victor L. Lund who is currently a director and shareholder of the Company. As part of an indemnification agreement between the Company and Mr. Lund regarding any legal matters arising from the WRI properties, the Company settled two legal matters in 2004 for $25,000 and $229,819 respectively. Gene S. Bertcher, President and Chief ExecutiveFinancial Officer of the Company, was indebted to the Company for an aggregate of $92,500 for notes issued in payment for shares of Common Stock. Mr. Bertcher's notes were secured by a pledge of 520 9 shares of common stock. Interest on the notes accumulate at a rate equal to any cash or stock dividends declared on the purchased stock and was due in a single installment for each such note on or before October 1, 2003. On October 1, 2003 the collateral was returned to the Company and the debt was cancelled. Until October 18, 2001, the Company had an employment agreement with Gene S. Bertcher, who was then Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The agreement, originally dated January 1, 1997, provided for a two year term that recommenced each day. The agreement provided for compensation of $180,000 per year and discretionary bonus. On October 3, 2001 the Company settled a dispute with a significant preferred shareholder. As part of the settlement the Company transferred eleven assisted living communities to that shareholder. While the Company and its senior executives believe the settlement was very favorable to the Company they also recognized that, due to the reduced size of the Company, it would be necessary to reduce expenses. On October 18, 2001 the employment contract of Mr. Bertcher was amended to reduce the cash drain to the Company. The original employment contract provided that any reduction in compensation would trigger a required payment of $360,000 within five days. Mr. Bertcher agreed to accept a note from the Company for the amounts if paid on a timely basis. These notes were non-interest bearing and were not due until December 31, 2004. The amended employment contract provided that Mr. Bertcher would receive a salary of $14,000 per year. The amended employment contract also provide for incentive compensation for Mr. Bertcher. The Company had agreed to conduct its future business through the use of limited partnerships. Mr. Bertcher would receive a partnership interest in each of these partnerships. Depending on the circumstances Mr. Bertcher would receive a limited partnership interest of between 4% and 10.5%. The Company had agreed that during the term of the employment contract, which expired on December 31, 2004, all property acquisitions would be made using a partnership structure. In 2003 the Board of Directors subsequently decided to return to salary based compensation for Mr. Bertcher. Mr. Bertcher received a base salary of $130,000 for 2003. In December 2002, one ofa partnership in which the partnerships discussed aboveCompany had an interest owed monies to the Company who, in turn, owed $360,000 to Mr. Bertcher. The Company offset $132,500 of it's obligation to Mr. Bertcher against its receivable from the partnership. In December 2003 Mr. Bertcher agreed to convert the $227,500 he was still owed into 71,161 newly issued shares of Company Common Stock at the market value of the stock at the time of issuance. The Company has a consulting agreement for $180,000 per year with Tara Management, Inc. whereby Tara will assist the Company in identifying, financing and closing acquisitions and dispositions of properties and other business interests.
