The increase in the Company's revenues during the fourth quarter of 2002 compared to the comparable quarter in 2001 is primarily due to the consolidation as of September September: see month. 30, 2002 of the Company's investments in ET Sub-Meridian Limited Partnership, L.L.P., (which holds leasehold An estate, interest, in real property held under a rental agreement by which the owner gives another the right to occupy or use land for a period of time. leasehold n. and option rights to seven skilled nursing facilities skilled nursing facility n.

working capital is reduced by $14.9 million and $44.8 million

(4) The White Paper on Funds from Operations approved by the Board
of Governors of NAREIT in October, 1999 defines Funds from
Operations as net income (loss), computed in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or
losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated
partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be
calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.
The Company believes that Funds from Operations is helpful to
investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT
because, along with cash flow from operating activities,
financing activities and investing activities, it provides
investors with an indication of the ability of the Company to
incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to
fund other cash needs. The Company computes Funds from
Operations using standards established by NAREIT which may not
be comparable to Funds from Operations reported by other REITs
that do not define the term using the current NAREIT
definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition
differently than the Company. Funds from Operations does not
represent cash generated from operating activities using
generally accepted accounting principles and should not be
considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of
the Company's financial performance, or to cash flow from
operating activities as a measure of the Company's liquidity,
nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company's
cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions.
Effective January 1, 2000, Funds from Operations includes both
recurring and non-recurring results of operations, except
those results defined as "extraordinary items" under generally
accepted accounting principles and gains and losses from sales
of depreciable operating property.
