PART I
ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
The predecessor to American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI or the Company or we or us) was organized in 1961 to provide investors with a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of equity real estate and mortgage loan investments selected to provide opportunities for capital appreciation as well as current income.
On October 23, 2001, ARI, Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (TCI), and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (IORI) jointly announced a preliminary agreement with the plaintiffs legal counsel of the derivative action entitled Olive et al. V. National Income Realty Trust, et al. for a complete settlement of all disputes in the lawsuit (the Olive Litigation). In February 2002, the court granted final approval of the proposed settlement (the Olive Settlement). Under the Olive Settlement, ARI agreed to either (i) acquire all of the outstanding shares of IORI and TCI not currently owned by ARI for a cash payment or shares of ARI preferred stock or (ii) make a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of IORI and TCI not currently owned by ARI. On November 15, 2002, ARI commenced the tender offers for the IORI and TCI shares. The tender offers were completed on March 19, 2003. ARI paid $19.00 cash per IORI share and $17.50 cash per TCI share for the stock held by unaffiliated stockholders. Pursuant to the tender offers, ARI subsidiaries acquired 265,036 IORI shares and 1,213,226 TCI shares. The completion of the tender offer fulfilled the obligations under the Olive Settlement, and the Olive Litigation originally filed in February 1990 was dismissed with prejudice.
After the tender offer, ARI subsidiaries owned 64.8% of the outstanding shares of TCI and 62.5% of the outstanding shares of IORI (46.9% owned directly by ARI subsidiaries and 15.6% through TCIs ownership of IORI shares). ARI began consolidation of TCIs and IORIs accounts and operations effective March 31, 2003. The effect of consolidating TCIs and IORIs operations from the completion of the tender offer through March 31, 2003 was determined to be immaterial. Through June 30, 2003, ARI had the same advisor as TCI and IORI, and TCI and IORI had the same board of directors. At December 31, 2004, ARI and TCI have the same Board of Directors, and one director of ARI (Ted Stokely) serves as a director of IORI. Effective July 1, 2003, ARI and TCI have the same advisor.
On June 2, 2003, ARI subsidiaries exchanged all of their 674,971 IORI shares with Basic Capital Management, Inc. (BCM), receiving 650,000 TCI shares from BCM. After the exchange, ARI subsidiaries owned 72.9% of the outstanding shares of TCI. On June 30, 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of its $15.5 million line of credit receivable from One Realco Corporation (One Realco) to BCM, receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM (See NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE). After the transaction, ARI subsidiaries owned 76.8% of the outstanding shares of TCI. In December 2003, ARI subsidiaries purchased 88,600 TCI shares in open market transactions and 204,633 TCI shares in transactions with related parties for a total of $1.4 million. At December 31, 2004, ARI subsidiaries owned 82.2% of the outstanding shares of TCI. ARI no longer directly owns any IORI shares. At December 31, 2004, TCI owned 24.0% of IORI shares. ARI ceased consolidation of IORIs accounts and operations effective June 2, 2003.

Effective July 1, 2003, Prime Asset Management, Inc. (PAMI) became the advisor to ARI and TCI. PAMI is owned by Realty Advisors, Inc. (80%) and Syntek West, Inc. (Syntek West) (20%), related parties. Syntek West is owned by Gene Phillips. Effective August 18, 2003, PAMI changed its name to Prime Income Asset Management, Inc. (PIAMI). On October 1, 2003, Prime Income Asset Management, LLC (Prime), which is 100% owned by PIAMI, replaced PIAMI as the advisor to ARI and TCI.
Business Plan and Investment Policy
ARIs primary business is investing in equity interests in real estate (including equity securities of real estate-related entities), leases, joint venture development projects, and partnerships and, to a lesser extent, financing real estate and real estate activities through investments in mortgage loans, including first, wraparound and junior mortgage loans. Information regarding the real estate and mortgage notes receivable portfolios of ARI is set forth in ITEM 2. PROPERTIES, NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE and in Schedules III and IV to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 8. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. ARI has six operating segments: apartments, commercial properties, hotels, land ownership, quick-service restaurants, and notes receivables. See NOTE 18 OPERATING SEGMENTS to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ARIs business objective is to maximize long-term profitability for its stockholders by investing in commercial real estate through the ownership, management, development, and acquisition of apartments, commercial properties, hotels, and land. ARI intends to achieve this objective through offering properties in multiple markets and operating as a leading landlord within the industry. ARI believes that this objective will provide the benefits of enhanced investment opportunities, economies of scale, risk diversification, both in terms of geographic market and real estate product type, and access to capital. In pursuing its business objective, ARI seeks to achieve a combination of internal and external growth, maintain a strong balance sheet, and pursue a strategy of financial flexibility. When ARIs marketing efforts identify opportunities, ARI will in appropriate instances, pursue those opportunities. ARI seeks to maximize the profitability of its apartments and commercial properties by endeavoring to maintain high occupancy levels while obtaining competitive rental rates, controlling costs and focusing on customer service efforts.
Current general economic conditions have resulted in downward pressure on rental rates, and market rental rates have declined on a year-to-year basis. ARI seeks to generate increased cash flow from apartments and commercial properties in operation through annual contractual increases in rental rates under leases. ARI also seeks to identify the best practices across operating platforms in order to enhance cost savings and other efficiencies. ARI and its subsidiaries employ an annual capital improvement and preventive maintenance program designed to reduce the operating costs of the apartments and commercial properties and maintain the long-term value of those real estate assets.
ARI also pursues attractive development opportunities, focusing primarily upon new construction or development, either directly or in concert with unaffiliated parties or affiliates. A summary of the properties under construction is set forth under ITEM 2. PROPERTIES below.
ARI also seeks to acquire properties consistent with its business objectives and strategies. ARI executes its acquisition strategy by purchasing properties which management believes will create stockholder value over the long-term. During the year ended December 31, 2004, ARI, through its subsidiaries, acquired 19 properties and disposed of 31 properties. ARIs subsidiaries dispose of properties and land held for development, which no longer fit within ARIs business plan or with respect to which management believes it can optimize cash proceeds.
Although ARI seeks to maximize long-term profitability for its stockholders through the development, acquisition and disposition of properties, ARI intends to continue to pursue its development, acquisition and disposition strategies. ARI at all times, and currently, is in various stages of discussions and negotiations with

respect to development, acquisition and disposition projects. The consummation of any current or future development, acquisition or disposition, if any, and the pace at which any may be completed cannot be assured or predicted.
Substantially all properties are owned by separate subsidiaries of ARI, many of which are single-asset entities. This structure permits greater access to financing for individual properties and permits flexibility in the type of transaction available for future disposition of each property by permitting a sale of either the asset or the equity ownership in the entity owning the asset. From time-to-time, subsidiaries have invested in joint ventures with others, which creates the possibility of risks that do not exist with properties solely owned by an ARI subsidiary. In those instances where other participants are involved, those other participants may, at any time, have business, economic or other objectives that are inconsistent with ARIs objectives, which may require a different action for the operation or ultimate disposition of the asset in question.
Real estate generally cannot be sold quickly. ARI and its subsidiaries may not be able to dispose of properties promptly in response to economic or other conditions. To offset this challenge, selective dispositions have been a part of ARIs strategy to create an efficient portfolio and provide additional sources of capital for future use. See the discussion under LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES in MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS for information concerning sales of properties during the past three years. Similarly, ARI and its subsidiaries finance acquisitions at times through non-recourse mortgages, internally generated funds, and to a lesser extent, property sales. Those sources provide the bulk of funds for future acquisitions. ARI, from time-to-time, acquires properties subject to existing indebtedness by a subsidiary assuming such indebtedness. When properties are acquired in such manner, ARI and its subsidiaries customarily seek to refinance the asset in order to properly leverage the asset for future operation.
ARI, through its subsidiary, Milano Restaurants International Corporation (MRI), operates and franchises several quick-service restaurant concepts including pizzerias featuring pizza delivery, carryout and dine-in under the trademarks Me-N-Eds Pizzerias, Me-N-Eds Slices, and Angelo & Vitos Pizzerias. The first Me-N-Eds Pizzeria opened in 1958. At December 31, 2004, there were 60 restaurants in operation, consisting of 41 owned and 19 franchised. Two of the restaurants were located in Texas and the remainder were in California. In addition to the Pizzerias, MRI has developed two new concepts: Pizzeria del Pane, a bakery/café concept and Zia Mias Cucina Italiana, a full service Italian restaurant. The initial locations for each of the concepts opened in 2004.
ARIs businesses are not seasonal. With regard to real estate investments, ARI is seeking both current income and capital appreciation. ARIs plan of operation is to continue, to the extent its liquidity permits, to make equity investments in income producing real estate such as hotels, apartments, or commercial properties, or equity securities of real estate-related entities. ARI also intends to continue to pursue higher risk, higher reward investments, such as improved and unimproved land where it can obtain financing of substantially all of a propertys purchase price. ARI intends to seek selected dispositions of certain of its assets, in particular, selected income producing properties in stabilized markets and certain of its land holdings where the prices obtainable for such assets justify their disposition. ARI has determined that it will no longer actively seek to fund or purchase mortgage loans. However, it may, in selected instances, originate mortgage loans or it may provide purchase money financing in conjunction with a property sale. See ITEM 2. PROPERTIES, NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE and Schedules III and IV to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 8. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
ARIs Board of Directors has broad authority under ARIs governing documents to make all types of investments, and may devote available assets to particular investments or types of investments, without restriction on the amount or percentage of assets that may be allocated to a single investment or to any particular type of investment, and without limit on the percentage of securities of any one issuer that may be acquired. Investment objectives and policies may be changed at any time by the Board without stockholder approval.

The specific composition from time-to-time of ARIs real estate portfolio owned through subsidiaries depends largely on the judgment of management as to changing investment opportunities and the level of risk associated with specific investments or types of investments. Management intends to attempt to maintain a real estate portfolio diversified by location and type of property.
In addition to its equity investments in real estate, ARI and/or its subsidiaries have also invested in private and open market purchases of the equity securities of IORI and TCI, both affiliates of ARI. See ITEM 2. PROPERTIESInvestments in Real Estate Companies.
Risk Factors Related to ARIs Business
Adverse events concerning existing tenants, or negative market conditions that may affect existing tenants could have an adverse impact on ARIs ability to attract new tenants, relet space, collect rent or renew leases, and thus could adversely affect cash flow from operations and inhibit growth. Cash flow from operations depends on the ability to lease space to tenants on economically favorable terms. ARI could be adversely affected by various facts and events over which there is limited control, such as:
| lack of demand for space in areas where the properties are located; |
| inability to retain existing tenants and attract new tenants; |
| oversupply of or reduced demand for space and changes in market rental rates; |
| defaults by tenants or failure to pay rent on a timely basis; |
| the need to periodically renovate and repair marketable space; |
| physical damage to properties; |
| economic or physical decline of the areas where properties are located; |
| potential risk of functional obsolescence of properties over time. |
At any time, any tenant may experience a downturn in its business that may weaken its financial condition. As a result, a tenant may delay a lease commencement, fail to make rental payments when due, decline to extend a lease upon its expiration, become insolvent or declare bankruptcy. Any tenant bankruptcy or insolvency, leasing delay or failure to make rental payments when due could result in the termination of the tenants lease and material losses to the Company.
If tenants do not renew their leases as they expire, ARI may not be able to rent the space. Furthermore, leases that are renewed, and some new leases for space that is relet, may have terms that are less economically favorable than current lease terms, or may require ARI to incur significant costs, such as renovations, tenant improvements, or lease transaction costs.
Any of these events could adversely affect cash flow from operations and ARIs ability to make expected distributions to shareholders and service indebtedness.
A significant portion of the costs, such as real estate taxes, insurance costs, and debt service payments, generally are not reduced when circumstances cause a decrease in cash flow from the properties.
ARI may not be able to compete successfully with other entities that operate in our industry. ARI experiences a great deal of competition in attracting tenants for the properties and in locating land to develop and properties to acquire.
In ARIs effort to lease these properties, ARI competes for tenants with a broad spectrum of other landlords in each of the markets. These competitors include, among others, publicly-held REITs, privately-held entities, individual property owners and tenants who wish to sublease their space. Some of these competitors may be able to offer prospective tenants more attractive financial terms than ARI is able to offer.

If the availability of land or high quality properties in ARIs markets diminishes, operating results could be adversely affected.
ARI may experience increased operating costs, which could adversely affect our operations. ARIs properties are subject to increases in operating expenses such as insurance, cleaning, electricity, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, administrative costs and other costs associated with security, landscaping, repairs, and maintenance of the properties. While current tenants generally are obligated to pay a significant portion of these costs, there is no assurance that these tenants will make such payments or agree to pay these costs upon renewal or new tenants will agree to pay these costs. If operating expenses increase in ARIs markets, ARI may not be able to increase rents or reimbursements in all of these markets to meet increased expenses, without at the same time decreasing occupancy rates. If this occurs, ARIs ability to make distributions to shareholders and service indebtedness could be adversely affected.
ARIs ability to achieve growth in operating income depends in part on the ability to develop properties, which may suffer under certain circumstances. ARI intends to continue to develop properties where warranted by market conditions. The decline in demand for real estate has reduced the amount of development ARI is undertaking. ARI has a number of ongoing development and land projects being readied for development.
Additionally, general construction and development activities include the following risks:
| construction and leasing of a property may not be completed on schedule, which could result in increased expenses and construction costs, and would result in reduced profitability for that property; |
| construction costs may exceed original estimates due to increases in interest rates and increased materials, labor or other costs, possibly making the property unprofitable because of inability to increase rents to compensate for the increase in construction costs; |
| some developments may fail to achieve expectations, possibly making them unprofitable; |
| ARI may be unable to obtain, or face delays in obtaining, required zoning, land-use, building, occupancy, and other governmental permits and authorizations, which could result in increased costs and could require ARI to abandon their activities entirely with respect to a project; |
| ARI may abandon development opportunities after the initial exploration, which may result in failure to recover costs already incurred. If ARI determines to alter or discontinue its development efforts, future costs of the investment may be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized and ARI may determine the investment is impaired resulting in a loss; |
| ARI may expend funds on and devote managements time to projects which we do not complete; |
| occupancy rates and rents at newly-completed properties may fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including market and economic conditions, which may result in lower than projected rental rates with the result that the investment is not profitable. |
ARI faces risks associated with property acquisitions. ARI acquires individual properties and portfolios of properties, and intends to continue to do so. The acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks:
| when ARI is able to locate a desired property, competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase price; |
| acquired properties may fail to perform as expected; |
| the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than the estimates; |
| acquired properties may be located in new markets where ARI faces risks associated with an incomplete knowledge or understanding of the local market, a limited number of established business relationships in the area and a relative unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures; |

Index to Financial Statements
| ARI may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into existing operations, and results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. |
ARI may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were asserted against ARI based upon ownership of those properties, ARI might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect cash flow.
Many of ARIs properties are concentrated in our primary markets, and may suffer economic harm as a result of adverse conditions in those markets. ARIs properties are located principally in specific geographic areas in the Southwestern, Southeastern, and Midwestern United States. Due to the concentration of properties in these areas, performance is dependent on economic conditions. These areas have experienced periods of economic decline.
ARI is highly leveraged and may not be able to meet our debt service obligations. ARI had total indebtedness at December 31, 2004 of approximately $958.6 million. Substantially all assets have been pledged to secure debt. These borrowings increase the risk of loss because they represent a prior claim on assets and require fixed payments regardless of profitability. ARIs highly leveraged position makes it vulnerable to changes in economic conditions and may limit the ability to capitalize on significant business opportunities in the future.
The Company may not be able to access financial markets to obtain capital on a timely basis, or on acceptable terms. ARI relies on proceeds from property dispositions and third party capital sources for a portion of its capital needs, including capital for acquisitions and development. The public debt and equity markets are among the sources relied on. There is no guarantee ARI will be able to access these markets, or any other source of capital. The ability to access the public debt and equity markets depends on a variety of factors, including:
| general economic conditions affecting these markets; |
| ARIs own financial structure and performance; |
| the markets opinion of REITs and real estate companies in general; |
| the markets opinion of REITs and real estate companies that own properties like ARI. |
ARI may suffer adverse effects as a result of terms of and covenants relating to the Companys indebtedness. Required payments on ARIs indebtedness generally are not reduced if the economic performance of the portfolio declines. If the economic performance declines, net income, cash flow from operations and cash available for distribution to stockholders will be reduced. If payments on debt cannot be made, ARI could sustain a loss, or in the case of mortgages, suffer foreclosures by mortgagees or suffer judgments. Further, some obligations contain cross-default and/or cross-acceleration provisions, which means that a default on one obligation may constitute a default on other obligations.
ARI anticipates only a small portion of the principal of our debt will be repaid prior to maturity. Therefore, ARI is likely to need to refinance at least a portion of its outstanding debt as it matures. There is a risk that ARI may not be able to refinance existing debt or the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of the existing debt. If principal payments due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or repaid with proceeds from other sources, such as the proceeds of sales of assets or new equity securities, cash flow will not be sufficient to repay all maturing debt in years when significant balloon payments come due.
ARIs credit facilities and unsecured debt securities contain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on the ability to incur indebtedness, including total debt to asset ratios, secured debt to total asset ratios, debt service coverage ratios, and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt, which ARI must maintain. ARIs continued ability to borrow is subject to compliance with financial and other covenants. In
8
Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
addition, failure to comply with such covenants could cause a default under credit facilities, and ARI may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available, or be available only on unattractive terms.
The degree of leverage could affect ARIs ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development, or other general corporate purposes. The degree of leverage could also make ARI more vulnerable to a downturn in business or the economy or could affect the market price the common stock.
An increase in interest rates would increase interest costs on variable rate debt and could adversely impact the ability to refinance existing debt. ARI currently has, and may incur more, indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, if interest rates increase, so will the interest costs, which would adversely affect cash flow and the ability to pay principal and interest on ARIs debt and the ability to make distributions to shareholders. Further, rising interest rates could limit ARIs ability to refinance existing debt when it matures.
Unbudgeted capital expenditures or cost overruns could adversely affect business operations and cash flow. If capital expenditures on ongoing or planned development projects, renovations, or condominium conversions exceed our expectations, the additional cost of these expenditures could have an adverse effect on business operations and cash flow. In addition, ARI might not have access to funds on a timely basis to meet the unexpected expenditures.
Construction costs are funded in large part through construction financing, which the Company often guarantees, and the Companys obligation to pay interest on this financing continues until the rental project is completed, leased up, and permanent financing is obtained, or the for sale project is sold out. Unexpected delays in completion of one or more ongoing projects could also have a significant adverse impact on business operations and cash flow.
ARI may need to sell properties from time-to-time for cash flow purposes. Because of the lack of liquidity of real estate investments generally, ARIs ability to respond to changing circumstances may be impaired. Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly. In the event that ARI must sell assets to generate cash flow, ARI cannot predict whether there will be a market for those assets in the time period desired or need to sell them, or whether ARI will be able to sell them at a price that will allow the Company to fully recoup the investment. ARI may not be able to realize the full potential value of the assets, and may incur costs related to the early pay-off of the debt secured by such assets.
The Company intends to devote increasing resources to the development of new projects. ARI plans to continue developing new projects as opportunities arise in the future. Development and construction activities entail a number of risks, including but not limited to the following:
| ARI may abandon a project after spending non-recoverable time and money determining its feasibility; |
| Construction costs may materially exceed original estimates; |
| The revenue from a new project may not be enough to make it profitable or generate a positive cash flow; |
| ARI may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms for development of a property, if at all; |
| The Company may not complete construction and lease-ups on schedule, resulting in increased development or carrying costs; |
| ARI may not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, necessary governmental permits. |

The overall business is subject to all of the risks associated with the real estate industry. ARI is subject to all risks incident to investment in real estate, many of which relate to the general lack of liquidity of real estate investments, including, but not limited to:
| changes in general or local economic conditions: because ARIs real estate assets are concentrated in the Southwest, Southeast, and Midwest any deterioration in the general economic conditions in any of those states could have an adverse effect on business and assets in that state; |
| changes in interest rates may make the ability to satisfy debt service requirements materially more burdensome; |
| lack of availability of financing may render the purchase, sale or refinancing of a property more difficult or unattractive; |
| changes in real estate and zoning laws; |
| increases in real estate taxes and insurance costs; |
| federal or local economic or rent control, and |
| floods, earthquakes and other similar natural disasters. |
Risks Related to the Real Estate Industry
Real estate investments are illiquid, and the Company may not be able to sell our properties if and when we determine it is appropriate to do so. Real estate generally cannot be sold quickly. ARI may not be able to dispose of properties promptly in response to economic or other conditions. In addition, provisions of the Internal Revenue Code limit ARIs ability to sell properties in some situations when it may be economically advantageous to do so, thereby adversely affecting returns to stockholders and adversely impacting the ability to meet ARIs obligations to the holders of other securities.
Management of the Company
Although the Board of Directors is directly responsible for managing the affairs of ARI and for setting the policies, which guide it, its day-to-day operations are performed by Prime, a contractual advisor under the supervision of the Board. The duties of Prime include, among other things, locating, investigating, evaluating, and recommending real estate and mortgage note investments and sales opportunities, as well as financing and refinancing sources. Prime also serves as a consultant in connection with ARIs business plan and investment policy decisions made by the Board. Prime is indirectly owned by Gene E. Phillips (20%) and by a trust for the children of Gene E. Phillips (80%). Mr. Phillips is not an officer or director of Prime, but serves as a representative of the trust, is involved in daily consultation with the officers of Prime, and has significant influence over the conduct of Primes business, including the rendering of advisory services and the making of investment decisions for itself and ARI. As of March 24, 2005, PIAMI, Primes parent, owned 1,437,208 shares of ARIs Common Stock, approximately 13.2% of the shares then outstanding. Prime is more fully described in ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE REGISTRANTThe Advisor.
Prime has been providing advisory services to ARI since October 1, 2003. Prime also serves as advisor to TCI. The officers of ARI are also officers of IORI, TCI, and Prime. The directors of ARI also serve as directors of TCI. The Chairman of the Board of Directors of ARI also serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of TCI and IORI. Affiliates of Prime have provided property management services to ARI. Currently, Triad Realty Services, Ltd. (Triad), an affiliate, and Carmel Realty, Inc. (Carmel) provide such property management services. Triad and Carmel subcontract with other entities for property-level management services. The general partner of Triad is BCM. The limited partner of Triad is Highland Realty Services, Inc. (Highland). Triad subcontracts the property-level management and leasing of 30 of ARIs commercial properties (shopping centers, office buildings and industrial warehouses) to Regis Realty I, LLC (Regis I) which is owned by Highland.

Since January 1, 2003, Regis Hotel I, LLC, has managed ARIs 11 hotels. The sole member of Regis I and Regis Hotel I, LLC is Highland. Carmel is a company previously owned by First Equity Properties, Inc., which is a company affiliated with Prime. On May 1, 2004, Regis I acquired the ownership of Carmel.
Regis I is also entitled to receive real estate brokerage commissions in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement as discussed in ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE REGISTRANTThe Advisor.
ARI has no employees itself, but MRI has 843 employees. Employees of Prime render services to ARI.
Competition
Real Estate. The real estate business is highly competitive, and ARI competes with numerous entities engaged in real estate activities (including certain entities described in ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONSRelated Party Transactions), some of which have greater financial resources than ARI. Management believes that success against such competition is dependent upon the geographic location of the property, the performance of property-level managers in areas such as marketing, collections and control of operating expenses, the amount of new construction in the area, and the maintenance and appearance of the property. Additional competitive factors with respect to commercial properties are the ease of access to the property, the adequacy of related facilities, such as parking, and sensitivity to market conditions in setting rent levels. With respect to apartments, competition is also based upon the design and mix of the units and the ability to provide a community atmosphere for the tenants. With respect to hotels, competition is also based upon the market served, i.e., transient, commercial or group users. Management believes that beyond general economic circumstances and trends, the rate at which properties are renovated or the rate new properties are developed in the vicinity of each of ARIs properties, in particular its improved and unimproved land, are also competitive factors. See also Risk Factors Related to ARIs Business.
To the extent that ARI seeks to sell any of its properties, the sales prices for the properties may be affected by competition from other real estate entities and financial institutions, also attempting to sell properties in areas where ARIs properties are located, as well as aggressive buyers attempting to dominate or penetrate a particular market.
As described above and in ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONSRelated Party Transactions, the officers of ARI also serve as officers of IORI (with the exception of the CFO) and TCI, both of which have business objectives similar to ARIs. ARIs officers and advisor owe fiduciary duties to both IORI and TCI as well as to ARI under applicable law. In determining whether a particular investment opportunity will be allocated to ARI, IORI, or TCI, management and the advisor consider the respective investment objectives of each and the appropriateness of a particular investment in light of the existing real estate and mortgage notes receivable portfolios of each. To the extent that any particular investment opportunity is appropriate to more than one of the entities, the investment opportunity will be allocated to the entity, which has had funds available for investment for the longest period of time, or, if appropriate, the investment may be shared among all or some of the entities.
In addition, also as described in ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, ARI competes with entities, which are affiliates of Prime having similar investment objectives in the purchasing, selling, leasing, and financing of real estate and real estate-related investments. In resolving any potential conflicts of interest which may arise, Prime has informed ARI that it intends to continue to exercise its best judgment as to what is fair and reasonable under the circumstances in accordance with applicable law.

ARI is subject to all the risks incident to ownership and financing of real estate and interests therein, many of which relate to the general illiquidity of real estate investments. These risks include, but are not limited to, changes in general or local economic conditions, changes in interest rates and availability of permanent mortgage financing which may render the purchase, sale, or refinancing of a property difficult or unattractive, and which may make debt service burdensome, changes in real estate and zoning laws, increases in real estate taxes, federal or local economic or rent controls, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and other acts of God and other factors beyond the control of management or the advisor. The illiquidity of real estate investments may also impair the ability of management to respond promptly to changing circumstances. Management believes that such risks are partially mitigated by the diversification by geographic region and property type of ARIs real estate and mortgage notes receivable portfolios. However, to the extent that property sales, new property investments, in particular improved and unimproved land, or mortgage lending are concentrated in any particular region, the advantages of geographic diversification are mitigated.
Virtually all of ARIs real estate, equity security holdings in IORI and TCI and its portfolio of equity securities are held subject to secured indebtedness. Such borrowings increase the risk of loss because they represent a prior claim on ARIs assets and require fixed payments regardless of profitability. In the event of default, the lender may foreclose on the assets securing such indebtedness, and ARI could lose its investment in the pledged assets.
Pizza Parlors. The pizza parlor business is highly competitive and is affected by changes in consumer tastes and eating habits, as well as national, regional, and local economic conditions, and demographic trends. The performance of an individual pizza parlor can be affected by changes in traffic patterns, demographics, and the type, number and location of competing restaurants.
The quick-service restaurant industry is extremely competitive with respect to price, service, location, and food quality. MRI and its franchisees compete with a variety of other restaurants in the quick-service restaurant industry; including those that offer dine-in, carryout, and delivery services. These competitors include national and regional chains, franchisees of other restaurant chains, and local owner-operated restaurants. Some of these competitors have been in existence longer and have an established market presence in certain geographic regions, and some have substantially greater financial, marketing, and other resources than MRI and its franchisees. MRI competes for qualified franchisees with many other restaurant concepts, including national and regional restaurant chains.
MRIs success is largely dependent upon the efforts of its management and other key personnel. The loss of the service of one or more members of management could have an adverse effect on MRIs operations. Significant transitions in management involve important risks, including potential loss of key personnel, difficulties in implementing changes to operational strategies and maintaining relationships with franchisees.
At December 31, 2004, MRI owned and operated 41 and franchised 19 pizza parlors. The results achieved by MRIs relatively small pizza parlor base may not be indicative of the results of a larger number of pizza parlors in a more geographically dispersed area. Because of MRIs relatively small pizza parlor base, an unsuccessful pizza parlor has a more significant effect on MRIs results of operations than would be the case in a company owning more pizza parlors.
MRIs existing pizza parlors, both owned and franchised, are located in California or Texas. At December 31, 2004, there were 58 pizza parlors in California and two in Texas. Accordingly, MRIs results of operations may be affected by economic or other conditions in those regions. Also, given MRIs present geographic concentration, publicity relating to MRIs pizza parlors could have a more pronounced effect on MRIs overall sales than might be the case if MRIs pizza parlors were geographically dispersed.
All of MRIs owned pizza parlors are operated on premises leased from third parties. Most of the pizza parlor leases provide for a minimum annual rent. There can be no assurance that MRI will be able to renew leases

upon expiration or that the lease terms on renewal will be as favorable as the current lease terms. In 2004, MRI closed one company-owned store, opened two new franchise stores, reopened a remodeled franchised store, with two franchise stores leaving the system. In 2005, three new franchise stores are scheduled to open.
In July 2003, ARI sold its interest in MRI to Gruppa Florentina, LLC (Gruppa), for $18.5 million, receiving $7.4 million in cash after debt assumption and providing purchase money financing of $2.3 million. ARI owns 20.0% of Gruppa, thereby retaining a 20.0% interest in MRI. ARI remains as the guarantor of $8.7 million of assumed debt and is one of the guarantors of $7.5 million in new debt obtained by Gruppa. Due to the debt guarantees and ARIs continuing ownership interest in MRI, management has determined that this should be accounted for as a financing transaction. In September 2003, ARI sold the note to Syntek West for $2.3 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to reduce affiliate debt.

ITEM 2. | PROPERTIES |
ARIs principal offices are located at 1800 Valley View Lane, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75234 and are, in the opinion of management, suitable and adequate for ARIs present operations.
Details of ARIs and its subsidiaries real estate and mortgage notes receivable portfolios at December 31, 2004, are set forth in SCHEDULES III and IV, respectively, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 8. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. The discussions set forth below under the headings Real Estate and Mortgage Loans provide certain summary information concerning ARIs real estate and mortgage notes receivable portfolios.
At December 31, 2004, no single asset accounted for 10.0% or more of total assets. At December 31, 2004, 82.6% of ARIs assets consisted of real estate, and 6.1% consisted of notes and interest receivable. The remaining 11.3% of ARIs assets were cash, cash equivalents, marketable equity securities, pizza parlor equipment, investments in equity investees, goodwill and other intangibles, and other assets. The percentage of assets invested in any one category is subject to change and no assurance can be given that the composition of ARIs assets in the future will approximate the percentages listed above.
ARIs real estate is geographically diverse, with concentrations in the Southwest, Southeast, and Midwest regions. At December 31, 2004, ARIs real estate was located in all geographic regions of the continental United States, other than the Northeast region, as shown more specifically in the table under Real Estate below. ARI also holds mortgage notes receivable secured by real estate located in the Southwest, Southeast, Pacific and Midwest regions of the continental United States. See SCHEDULE IV to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA for a detailed description of ARIs notes receivable portfolio.

Real Estate
At December 31, 2004, 83.1% of ARIs assets were invested in real estate and the equity securities of IORI. ARI invests in real estate located throughout the continental United States, either on a leveraged or non-leveraged basis. ARIs real estate portfolio consists of properties held for investment, properties held for sale, investments in partnerships, and investments in equity securities of IORI.
Types of Real Estate Investments. ARIs real estate consists of apartments, commercial properties (office buildings, industrial warehouses, shopping centers, and a merchandise mart), hotels, and improved and unimproved land. In selecting real estate for investment, the location, age and type of property, gross rents, lease terms, financial and business standing of tenants, operating expenses, fixed charges, land values, and physical condition are among the factors considered. Properties may be purchased subject to debt, or existing debt may be assumed and properties may be mortgaged, pledged or otherwise collateralized to obtain financing. The Board of Directors may alter the types of and criteria for selecting new real estate investments and for obtaining financing without a vote of stockholders.
Although ARI has typically invested in developed real estate, it may also invest in new construction or development either directly or in partnership with unaffiliated parties or affiliates (subject to approval by the Board of Directors). To the extent that it invests in construction and development projects, such as the apartments described below, ARI is subject to business risks, which include cost overruns and construction delays, associated with higher risk projects.

Partnership Properties. ARI accounts for partnership properties using the equity method. ARI had no property information for properties owned by partnerships.
ARI is a 30% general partner in Sacramento Nine (SAC 9), which owned the Prospect Park #29 Office Building. In December 2004, SAC 9 sold the Prospect Park #29 office building for $3.7 million, of which ARI received $1.1 million after closing costs and fees. ARI recognized a gain on the sale of investment in SAC 9 of $882,000 relating to this transaction.
In December 2004, ARI sold a 95% interest in Garden Centura, L.P. that owns the 410,901 sq. ft. Centura Tower office building located in Farmers Branch, Texas. ARI retained a non-controlling 1% general partner and 4% limited partner interest in Garden Centura, L.P. ARI will account for its investment in this partnership on the cost basis.
Mortgage Loans
In addition to real estate, a portion of ARIs assets are invested in mortgage notes receivable, secured by income-producing real estate, unimproved land and partnership interests. Management expects that the percentage of ARIs assets invested in mortgage loans will decline, as ARI will no longer seek to fund or acquire new mortgage loans. However, ARI may, in selected instances, originate mortgage loans or it may provide purchase money financing in conjunction with a property sale. Management intends to service and hold for investment the mortgage notes currently in the portfolio. Mortgage notes receivable consist primarily of first mortgage loans.
Types of Properties Subject to Mortgages. The types of properties securing mortgage notes receivable at December 31, 2004, consisted of one apartment, four commercial buildings, unimproved land and partnership

interests. The type of properties subject to mortgages in which ARI invests may be altered without a vote of stockholders.
As of December 31, 2004, the obligors on $43.3 million or 59.0% of the mortgage notes receivable portfolio were affiliates of ARI. Also at that date, $6.6 million or 8.9% of the mortgage notes receivable portfolio was non-performing.
The following table sets forth the percentages (based on the outstanding mortgage loan balance at December 31, 2004), by property type and geographic region, of the income producing properties that serve as collateral for ARIs mortgage notes receivable. Excluded are $55.5 million of mortgage notes that are secured by unimproved land and other security, or are unsecured. See SCHEDULE IV to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 8.

During 2004, $5.9 million in interest and $11.6 million in principal were collected on mortgage notes receivable.
First Mortgage Loans. These loans generally provide for level periodic payments of principal and interest sufficient to substantially repay the loan at or prior to maturity, but may involve interest-only payments, moderate or negative amortization of principal, or all interest and a balloon principal payment at maturity. With respect to first mortgage loans, it is ARIs general policy to require that the borrower provide a title policy or an acceptable legal opinion of title as to the validity and the priority of ARIs mortgage lien over all other obligations, except liens arising from unpaid property taxes and other exceptions normally allowed by first mortgage lenders. ARI may grant participations in first mortgage loans that it originates to other lenders.
The following discussion briefly describes first mortgage loans funded in 2004, as well as events during 2004 that affected previously funded first mortgage loans.
In March 2004, ARI sold an 8.0 acre tract of its Mason Goodrich land parcel for $1.0 million, receiving $251,000 after payment of closing costs and providing purchase money financing of $523,000. The secured loan bears interest at 10.0% per annum, requires monthly payments of accrued interest and matures in March 2006. All principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due at maturity.
In March 2004, ARI sold 492.5 acres in Collin County, Texas for $20.0 million, receiving $8.0 million after payment of debt and closing costs, and providing purchase money financing of $7.2 million for a portion of the land on a contingent basis. The secured note bore interest at 7.0% per annum and matured in September 2004.

In October 2004, ARI sold the In The Pines apartments to a third party and provided $1.0 million of the purchase price as seller financing in the form of two notes. The first note bears interest at 7.0% per annum, requires monthly interest payments and matured in January 2005. The Purchaser extended this note to March 2005 by paying 1.0% of the outstanding principal balance as an extension fee and then extended the note an additional 30 days to April 2005 by paying an extension fee of 0.5% of the outstanding principal balance. In the event of a default, the note is also secured by membership rights in the purchasers entity. The second note is unsecured; bears interest at 8.5% per annum, requires monthly interest payments and matured in January 2005. The Purchaser extended this note to March 2005 by paying 1.0% of the outstanding principal balance as an extension fee and then extended the note an additional 30 days to April 2005 by paying an extension fee of 0.5% of the outstanding principal balance.
In November 2004, ARI sold a 1.6 acre tract of its Vineyards II land parcel for $2.5 million, paying $536,000 after mortgage paydowns, closing costs, and providing purchase money financing of $2.0 million.

In March 2002, ARI sold the 174,513 sq. ft. Hartford Office Building in Dallas, Texas, for $4.0 million and provided the $4.0 million purchase price as seller financing and an additional $1.4 million line of credit for leasehold improvements in the form of a first lien mortgage note. The note bears interest at a variable interest rate, currently 7.0% per annum, requires monthly payments of accrued interest and matures in March 2007. As of March 2005, ARI has funded $788,000 of the additional line of credit.
In October 2002, ARI sold its Varner Road land parcel for $3.7 million, receiving $0.7 million after payment of closing costs and providing purchase money financing of $2.8 million. The loan bore interest at 9.0% per annum, matured in October 2004 and required quarterly interest payments. All principal and accrued but unpaid interest were due at maturity. In October 2004, the note was collected in full, including accrued but unpaid interest.
In February 2003, ARI sold an 89.3 acre tract of its Katrina land parcel for $8.5 million, paying $410,000 after payment of closing costs and debt pay down and providing purchase money financing of $5.6 million. The note bears interest at 8.0% per annum and matures three years after the recording of the Deed of Trust. Interest will begin accruing after improvements to the site have been completed by ARI. At April 2004, the improvements were begun. The future costs to ARI to complete the improvements, estimated to be $2.5 million, were accrued in 2002. A principal payment of $450,000 is due within ten days after a Tentative Parcel Map (the Map) is recorded. At March 2005, negotiations with the buyer to settle any further obligations are under way. Interest payments will be due on the first day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first quarter following the completion of the site improvements.
Junior participations. In August 2001, ARI agreed to fund up to $5.6 million secured by a second lien on an office building in Dallas, Texas. The note receivable bore interest at a variable rate, required monthly payments of accrued interest and matured in January 2003. As of March 2005, ARI has funded a total of $4.3 million and the note is classified as non-performing. The collateral used to secure ARIs second lien was seized by the first lien holder. In March 2004, ARI agreed to accept an assignment of claims in litigation as security for the note. In December 2004, ARI agreed to a Modification Agreement with the borrower, which was effective November 1, 2003. As of the modified effective date, accrued interest of $582,000 was applied to the principal balance of the note, the interest rate was set to a fixed rate of 9.0% per annum and all principal and interest is due November 2005. ARI also received Pledge and Security Agreements in various partnership interests belonging to the borrower and received various Assignments of Proceeds from sales in certain entities owned by the borrower. ARI also agreed to reduce accrued interest and principal by $1.5 million from the receipt of notes receivable assigned to ARI by borrower and by $605,000 from cash received. ARI also received $1.4 million in January

2005 that was applied to accrued interest and principal effective December 30, 2004. As a result of this modification, ARI has released $1.4 million of allowance for loan losses to expense. The following notes were assigned to ARI as payment on the note:
| $678,000 from a partnership that owns an apartment building. This note is unsecured, bears no interest and has no maturity date. Distributions made from the partnership operations will be used to pay the principal on the note. |
| $264,000 secured by a second lien on 13 acres of unimproved land. This note bears interest at 9.0% and matured in February 2003. |
| $341,000 secured by a second lien on 23.3 acres of unimproved land. This note bears interest at 4.0% and is payable upon demand. |
| $125,000 secured by a 100% interest in an affiliated company that owns an apartment building. This note bears interest at 12.0%, only requires payments if surplus cash is available and matures in April 2009. |
In June 2003, ARI sold the 104 unit Willow Wick Apartments in North Augusta, South Carolina, for $2.7 million and provided $42,000 of the purchasers closing costs as seller financing. The note bore interest at 5.0% per annum and required all interest and principal payments be paid at maturity in December 2003. This loan was extended until February 2004 and $10,000 was received in March 2004. The note, including accrued and unpaid interest, was paid in June 2004. ARI discounted the note $2,000 and recognized a loss of $2,000.
In September 2003, ARI sold a 367.4 acre tract of its Pioneer Crossing land parcel for $22.5 million, receiving $4.9 million after payment of closing costs and providing purchase money financing of $16.9 million. The note bears interest at 8.0% per annum, matures in September 2006 and requires quarterly payments of accrued interest beginning in January 2004. All principal and accrued but unpaid interest are due at maturity. In November 2003, ARI sold an interest in $8.0 million of the note for $7.5 million, receiving $7.2 million in cash after payment of closing costs and debt paydown. In February 2004, ARI sold an additional interest in $6.6 million of the note for $6.3 million, receiving $6.3 million in cash after payment of closing costs.
In December 2003, ARI sold a tract of Marine Creek land to a subsidiary of United Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF) for $1.5 million, receiving cash and a note receivable. This sale was not recognized as a sale at that time because UHF is a related party and ARI has continuing involvement and control. In February 2004, Marine Creek was refinanced by UHF, which paid in full ARIs note payable on the land. ARI recorded the sale of the land and received a note receivable of $270,000, which was the difference between the sales price and the amount of ARIs note payable. The note bears interest at 6.0%, requires quarterly payments from available surplus cash and matures in December 2007. See Note 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.
Other. In July 2002, ARI entered into an agreement to fund up to $300,000 under a revolving line of credit secured by 100% interest in a partnership of the borrower. The line of credit bears interest at 12.0% per annum, requires monthly payments of accrued interest, and matures in June 2005. ARI has funded the entire $300,000.
In September 1999, in conjunction with the sale of two apartments in Austin, Texas, $2.1 million in purchase money financing was provided, secured by limited partnership interests in two limited partnerships owned by the buyer. The financing bore interest at 16.0% per annum, required monthly payments of interest only at 6.0%, beginning in February 2000 and required a $200,000 principal paydown in December 1999, which was not received, and matured in August 2000. ARI had the option of obtaining the buyers general and limited partnership interests in the collateral partnerships in full satisfaction of the financing. In March 2000, ARI agreed to forbear foreclosing on the collateral securing the note and released one of the partnership interests, in exchange for a payment of $250,000 and executed deeds of trusts on certain properties owned by the buyer. In March 2000, the borrower made a $1.1 million payment, upon receipt of which ARI returned the deeds of trust. The borrower executed a replacement promissory note for the remaining note balance of $1.0 million, which was unsecured, non-interest bearing and matured in April 2003. In April 2004, a demand letter was sent to the debtor. ARI initiated legal action in June 2004.

Related Parties. In March 2004, ARI sold a K-Mart in Cary, North Carolina to BCM for $3.2 million, including the assumption of debt. ARI also provided $1.5 million of the purchase price as seller financing. The secured note bears interest at 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75%, and matures in April 2005.
In March 2004, ARI sold the Texstar Warehouse in Arlington, Texas to BCM for $2.4 million, including the assumption of debt. ARI also provided $1.3 million of the purchase price as seller financing. The secured note bears interest at 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75%, and matures in April 2005.
In October 2004, ARI contemplated the sale of the common stock of TCI Lexington Corporation, which owns the Lexington Center office building in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to One Realco Office Investors, Inc., a related party, for the assumption of debt of $5.1 million, which was subject to lender approval, and a seller note of $237,000. The assumption of debt by One Realco Office Investors, Inc. was not approved by the lender; therefore, the Board of Directors rescinded their approval of the transaction. ARI extended the loan on the Lexington Center with the lender in December 2004.
In October 2004, ARI advanced $3.3 million to the Class A Limited Partners of Edina Park Plaza Associates, Limited Partnership, of which ARI is the general partner. The loans bear interest at 10.0% per annum and mature in September 2017. Interest due to ARI will be deducted from the quarterly return owed by ARI to the Class A Limited Partners, eliminating the quarterly payments. The outstanding principal is due at maturity.
In October 1999, ARI funded a $4.7 million loan to Realty Advisors. The loan, to provide funds for acquisitions or working capital needs, was secured by all of the outstanding shares of common stock of American Reserve Life Insurance Company.

The Board of Directors authorized the expenditure of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million to acquire, in open market purchases, shares of IORI, excluding private purchase transactions which were separately authorized. Through December 31, 2004, ARI had expended an aggregate of $10.0 million to acquire shares of IORI, in open market purchases, in accordance with these authorizations. As of December 31, 2004, ARI and its subsidiaries, other than TCI, owned no shares of common stock of IORI but TCI continued to own 345,728 IORI shares (approximately 24.0% of the outstanding IORI shares). ARI may make additional investments in the equity securities of IORI to the extent its liquidity permits.
The following summary description of IORI is based on information publicly reported by IORI in its Form 10-K Annual Report to the Commission for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.
Pertinent information regarding ARIs investment in the equity securities of the IORI at December 31, 2004, is summarized below (dollars in thousands):

IORI owns real estate, some of which has been held for many years. Because of depreciation, IORI may earn substantial amounts in periods in which it sells real estate and will probably incur losses in periods in which it does not. ARIs reported income or loss attributable to IORI will differ materially from its cash flow attributable to it.
IORI is a Nevada corporation, which was originally organized on December 14, 1984, as a California business trust and commenced operations on April 10, 1985. IORIs business is investing in real estate through direct equity investments and partnerships. At December 31, 2004, IORI had total assets of $91.2 million and owned six apartments, one office building, one shopping center, one industrial warehouse, and one parcel of unimproved land, all within the State of Texas. In 2004, IORI sold two apartments, two office buildings and a parcel of unimproved land for a total of $24.5 million, receiving net cash of $4.8 million after paying off $15.8 million in mortgage debt and the payment of various closing costs. IORI recognized gains of $5.6 million on the sales, of which ARIs equity share was $1.1 million. In 2003, IORI sold three office buildings and a parcel of unimproved land for a total of $55.7 million, receiving net cash of $10.1 million after paying off $9.5 million in mortgage debt and the payment of various closing costs. IORI recognized gains of $3.0 million on the sales, of which ARIs equity share was $715,000.

ITEM 3. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
Innovo Realty, Inc. On August 10, 2004, American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI), Investors, Inc. (TCI) and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (IOT) instituted an action in Texas State District Court as Cause No. 2004-60231-393 styled American Realty Investors, Inc., Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., Plaintiffs v. Innovo Realty, Inc. and Innovo Group, Inc., Involuntary Plaintiffs v. Innovo Realty, Inc., Metra Capital LLC, Innovo Group, Inc., Joseph Mizrachi, Simon Mizrachi, Hubert Guez, Third Millennium Partners LLC, Third Millennium Partners, Inc., Third Millennium Group LLC and Sunridge Management Group, Inc., Defendants. Plaintiffs Complaint alleges that Joseph Mizrachi, a former director of ARI and others, offered a plan to the Plaintiffs to create one or more joint venture arrangements with one or more of the Plaintiffs to pursue alternative forms of financing or refinancing portions of Plaintiffs real estate portfolios, which entailed the creation of 22 separate limited partnerships to acquire 28 separate apartment complexes in three states (Texas, Florida and Louisiana), the general partners of which are affiliates of, or controlled by, Joseph Mizrachi. Plaintiffs Complaint alleges that the overall transaction required the establishment of a sinking fund by

the Defendants and the 22 limited partnerships as a trust for the benefit of certain preferred shareholders of Innovo Group, Inc. and the payment of certain proceeds to the Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs assert that payments have not been made pursuant to the agreement of the parties. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants conduct constituted a common business enterprise, alleges breach of contract and derivative claims on behalf of Innovo Group, Inc. against Joseph Mizrachi and others, and requests declaratory relief involving the Plaintiffs rights in the partnerships, an accounting of proceeds, and the creation of a constructive trust. Plaintiffs Complaint also alleges that Joseph Mizrachi engaged in fraud, negligent misrepresentation and/or breach of fiduciary duty and seeks unspecified damages, attorneys fees, the establishment of a constructive trust and other relief.
Sunset Management, LLC. On October 5, 2004, Sunset Management LLC (Sunset) filed a Complaint as a purported stockholders derivative action on behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (TCI) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, against American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI), Basic Capital Management, Inc. (BCM), Prime Income Asset Management, Inc. (PIAMI), Prime Income Asset Management LLC (Prime), Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (IOT), United Housing Foundation, Inc. (United), Regis Realty, Inc. (Regis), TCI, TCIs current directors and officers and others. Sunsets Complaint was instituted as Case No. 3:04-CV-02162-B styled Sunset Management LLC, Derivatively on Behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. v. American Realty Investors, Inc., et al. Sunsets Complaint alleges (i) Sunset is the owner of 10 shares of Common Stock of TCI and Sunset is the pledgee and beneficial owner of 3,673,115 shares of Common Stock of TCI, (ii) Sunset is a single-member limited liability company, (iii) all of the Defendants have in their various capacities breached fiduciary duties to TCI, and (iv) unjust enrichment of the various Defendants. Sunsets Complaint seeks an injunction prohibiting TCI from entering into any related-party transactions that are not fair to TCI and approved by disinterested directors and/or the stockholders of TCI with full knowledge of the common interest of the directors and/or officers, unspecified damages, attorneys fees and costs. Individual directors and officers of TCI do not believe their interests are adverse to TCI in this matter. All Defendants believe the action is not properly brought as a derivative action on behalf of TCI, as Sunsets interests are adverse to the interests of TCI. The current action brought by Sunset contains many of the same allegations raised by Sunset in four other cases which, as rulings have occurred, have resulted in a denial of Sunsets requested relief. The Defendants intend to vigorously defend the action, and on November 8, 2004, filed a Motion to Dismiss the case pursuant to Rules 12 and 23.1 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on the basis that Sunsets allegations are insufficient to evade the stringent demand requirement under the futility exception for stockholder derivative actions, and that Sunset cannot fairly and adequately represent the interests of other stockholders. On January 4, 2005, the Defendants also filed a Motion to Stay Discovery and For Protective Order based on the concept that the Motion to Dismiss should dispose of the matter. No hearing has been held or order issued by the Court on either Motion through March 30, 2005. Separately, one of the individual Defendants filed on January 4, 2005 a Motion to Disqualify Sunsets Counsel.
On December 23, 2004, Sunset filed another Complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, against ARI, BCM, EQK Holdings, Inc. (EQK) and American Realty Trust, Inc. (ART). EQK and ART are subsidiaries of ARI. Sunsets Complaint was instituted as Case No. 3:04-CV-2710-K styled Sunset Management LLC, Plaintiff v. American Realty Investors, Inc., Basic Capital Management, Inc., EQK Holdings, Inc. and American Realty Trust, Inc., alleging (i) that on September 17, 2001, Sunset lent BCM, EQK, ART and ART Williamsburg, Inc. $30,000,000, and in connection with such loan, BCM, EQK and ART pledged 3,673,115 shares of TCI stock to Sunset; 2,129,701 TCI shares pledged to Sunset by EQK; 920,507 TCI shares pledged to Sunset by BCM, and 622,907 shares pledged to Sunset by ART, (ii) that each of the stock pledge agreements specifically provides that the borrower will not without the written consent of Sunset, sell, dispose of, transfer directly or indirectly, or further encumber the Pledged Securities, (iii) some or all of the shares pledged by BCM and ART had been transferred to one or more subsidiaries of ARI in violation of the stock pledge agreements, (iv) BCM and ART have allegedly breached the stock pledge agreements by transferring certain shares of TCI, (v) that ARI and EQK have allegedly tortuously interfered with existing contractual relationships among BCM, ART and Sunset. Sunsets Complaint seeks specific performance under the stock pledge agreements, and that the Court enter an Order (a) requiring ART to reacquire at least 534,307

pledged shares it allegedly transferred to EQK, (b) requiring BCM to reacquire at least 920,507 pledged shares it allegedly transferred to EQK, (c) requiring EQK to transfer 534,307 pledged shares back to ART, and (d) requiring EQK 920,507 pledged shares back to BCM. On February 2, 2005, the Defendants in this case filed a Motion to Dismiss or in the Alternative to Stay Action Pending the Resolution of Prior Proceedings in a sister federal court based upon dependency of an adversary proceeding in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division (Plano, Texas), styled American Realty Trust, Inc. v. Sunset Management LLC, Adversary Proceeding No. 03-4256 (E.D. Texas), which is described in the following paragraphs as the Texas Litigation. No hearing has been held or Order issued by the Court on such Motion through March 30, 2005.
The current Sunset Complaint is the fifth in a continuing series of actions involving Sunset, certain subsidiaries of ARI and ARI resulting from a loan in September 2001 to BCM and three subsidiaries of ARI in the original amount of $30 million ($19.5 million of which bore interest at 24% per annum, while the remaining $10.5 million of which bore interest at 20%). In September 2002, $15 million in principal was repaid leaving a $15 million aggregate balance, which Sunset orally agreed to extend the maturity date and accept substitute collateral, an arrangement which Sunset did not honor, resulting in the original litigation filed in Texas State Court during October 2002 as Cause No. 02-09433-I in the 162nd Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas styled American Realty Trust, Inc., ART Williamsburg, Inc., Basic Capital Management, Inc. and EQK Holdings, Inc. v. Sunset Management LLC (the Texas Litigation). The Texas Litigation alleged breach of contract, misrepresentation, breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing and slander of title by Sunset and sought certain declaratory relief against Sunset, as well as temporary and permanent anti-suit injunction against Sunset.
During January 2003, without notice to the Plaintiffs in the Texas Litigation, Sunset institute an action in Federal District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada against Commonwealth Land Title (Commonwealth) seeking disposition of certain shares of Common Stock of TCI held by Commonwealth as Pledge Holder. On January 31, 2003, after a Temporary Restraining Order was issued in the Texas Litigation against Sunset, Sunset instituted a separate lawsuit in Nevada State Court styled Sunset Management LLC v. American Realty Trust, Inc., et al., Cause No. A462587 pending in District Court of Clark County, Nevada (the Nevada Litigation). On February 12, 2003, the Nevada State Court held a hearing on Sunsets request for emergency relief and denied all of Sunsets requested relief and indicated that a stay of the Nevada Litigation may be appropriate, which stay of litigation (including claims against TCI) was granted on May 2, 2003. Notwithstanding the stay of the Nevada Litigation, Sunset has attempted to re-litigate the underlying issues already determined in the Texas Litigation and the Nevada Litigation through cross-claims and counterclaims in the Texas Litigation and renewed motions for injunctions and the appointment of a receiver in the Nevada Litigation. During September 2003, the Texas Litigation was removed to Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas and subsequently transferred to the Eastern District of Texas. Sunset and the Plaintiffs have filed cross-motions for partial summary judgment in the Bankruptcy Court which had been briefed but remain pending at this time. The parties have also filed an Agreed Motion to Withdraw the reference and have the case transferred to a United States District Judge for trial, which has been denied without prejudice pending resolution of pre-trial motions, including the motions for summary judgment.
On February 10, 2004, Sunset filed yet another lawsuit in Nevada styled Sunset Management LLC v. Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc., Case No. CV04-00345 in the Superior Court of Washoe County, seeking to compel a new election of directors, alleging that Sunset was improperly denied voting rights with respect to certain pledged shares at the 2003 stockholders meeting of TCI. TCI responded to that action by informing the Nevada Court that the issue of the validity and effectiveness of proxies purportedly held by Sunset in connection with the loan was already pending before the Bankruptcy Court. On May 12, 2004, the Nevada District Court denied Sunsets motion to compel and election of corporate directors because of the dispute pending in the Texas Bankruptcy Court concerning the status of the loan. Subsequently, the Nevada District Court denied two motions for reconsideration filed by Sunset. Sunset is currently appealing the rulings of the Washoe County District Court.

ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Introduction
ARI was organized in 1999. In August 2000, ARI acquired American Realty Trust, Inc. (ART) and National Realty, L.P. (NRLP), ART was organized in 1961 to provide investors with a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments selected to provide opportunities for capital appreciation as well as current income. ART owns a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments. NRLP was organized in 1987, and subsequently acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of 35 public and private limited partnerships. NRLP also owns a portfolio of real estate and mortgage loan investments.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of ARIs financial condition and results of operations and require managements most difficult, complex or subjective judgments. ARIs critical accounting policies relate to the evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets and the evaluation of the collectibility of accounts and notes receivable.
If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a rental property to be held and used or land held for development may be impaired, management performs a recoverability analysis based on estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the property in the future. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, the property is written down to estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized. If management decides to sell rental properties or land held for development, management evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amounts of the assets. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from estimated net sales proceeds, the property is written down to estimated fair value, less costs to sell and an impairment loss is recognized within income from continuing operations. ARIs estimates of cash flow and fair values of the properties are based on current market conditions and consider matters such as rental rates and occupancies for comparable properties, recent sales data for comparable properties and, where applicable, contracts or the results of negotiations with purchasers or prospective purchasers. ARIs estimates are subject to revision as market conditions and ARIs assessments of them change. In the third quarter of 2004, ARI recognized asset impairments of $3.4 million. In the fourth quarter of 2004, ARI recognized asset impairments of $7.1 million.
ARIs allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and notes receivable is established based on analysis of the risk of loss on specific accounts. The analysis places particular emphasis on past due accounts. Management considers such information as the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history of the tenant or other debtor, the financial condition of the tenant or other debtor and ARIs assessment of its ability to meet its lease or interest obligations. ARIs estimate of the required allowance, which is reviewed on a quarterly basis, is subject to revision as these factors change and is sensitive to the effects of economic and market conditions.
ARIs management periodically discusses criteria for estimates and disclosures of its estimates with the Audit Committee of its Board of Directors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2004 totaled $22.4 million, compared with $9.5 million at December 31, 2003. ARIs principal sources of cash have been and will continue to be from property operations, proceeds from property sales, and the collection of mortgage notes receivable, borrowings and, to a lesser extent, distributions from partnerships. Management anticipates that ARIs cash at December 31, 2004, along with cash that will be generated in 2005 from property operations, will not be sufficient to meet all of ARIs cash requirements. Management intends to selectively sell income producing real estate or land, refinance or extend real estate debt and seek additional borrowings against real estate to meet its cash requirements. Historically, management has been successful at extending its current maturity obligations. Management also anticipates funding ongoing real estate construction projects and the acquisition of new real estate from cash generated by property sales, debt refinancings or extensions, and additional borrowings.
Notes payable totaling $236.3 million are scheduled to mature during 2005. During the first quarter of 2005, ARI either extended, refinanced, paid down, paid off or received commitments from lenders to extend or refinance $108.9 million of the debt scheduled to mature in 2005. See NOTE 2. REAL ESTATE, NOTE 8. NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE and NOTE 23. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS.
ARI reported net income of $33.2 million for 2004, which included the following non-cash charges and credits: gain on sale of real estate of $111.0 million, depreciation and amortization of real estate held for investment and intangible assets of $30.4 million, amortization of deferred borrowing costs of $10.5 million, provision for asset impairment of $10.5 million, gain on settlement of debt of $10.6 million, provision for loan losses of $2.8 million, discount on sale of notes receivable of $389,000 and gain on foreign currency transactions of $3.8 million. Net cash used in operating activities was $40.7 million. Interest receivable decreased by $1.3 million due to a collection of notes receivable, other assets increased by $3.5 million primarily due to increased affiliate receivables, interest payable increased by $2.6 million primarily due to unpaid interest on disputed notes payable, and a decrease in minority interest primarily due to allocation of loss to minority owners.

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
Net cash provided by investing activities of $54.3 million was primarily due to proceeds from sale of real estate of $273.4 million, proceeds from the sale of notes receivable of $8.3 million, and collection of notes receivable of $11.6 million. These inflows were offset by real estate improvements of $165.2 million, investments in real estate entities of $3.9 million, acquisition of real estate of $57.8 million, earnest money deposits of $4.8 million, and funding of notes receivable of $6.8 million.
Net cash used in financing activities of $659,000 was primarily comprised of proceeds for the funding or refinancing of notes payable of $382.3 million and net advances from affiliates of $14.2 million; offset by payouts of $380.6 million to paydown existing notes payable, $9.0 million for financing costs, $5.2 million to repurchase common stock, $1.6 million in dividends paid, and net margin payments of $736,000.
If ARI continues to dispose of operating properties, a further decline in cash from property operations would be expected.
In 2004, ARI purchased a total of 408.7 acres of land in Denton, Ft. Worth, Farmers Branch, Irving, Lubbock, and Dallas, Texas and Kent, Ohio, in separate transactions for a total of $19.7 million. ARI paid $5.1 million in cash, including closing costs. ARI acquired three apartments and land for ten apartments for a total of $34.4 million. ARI paid $6.4 million in cash, including closing costs.
In 2004, ARI sold a total of 573.4 acres of land in Collin County, Ft Worth, Houston, Plano, Dallas, Tarrant County, and Lewisville, Texas and Kent, Ohio in 14 separate transactions for a total of $40.1 million. ARI received net cash of $16.5 million, after paying off or paying down $11.8 million in mortgage debt secured by such land parcels. ARI also sold seven apartments, four industrial warehouses, four shopping centers, 11 office buildings, and an athletic club for a total of $277.4 million. ARI received net cash of $89.8 million, after the payoff or assumption by the purchaser of mortgage debt totaling $145.2 million and after providing purchase money financing of $34.4 million.
ARI expects that funds from existing cash resources, aggressive sales of land and selected income producing property sales, refinancing of real estate, and borrowings against its real estate will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements associated with ARIs current and anticipated level of operations, maturing debt obligations and existing commitments. To the extent that ARIs liquidity permits or financing sources are available, ARI will make investments in real estate, primarily in improved and unimproved land, will continue making investments in real estate entities and marketable equity securities, and will develop and construct income-producing properties.
ARI expects that it will be necessary for it to sell $47.7 million, $52.6 million and $8.1 million of its land holdings during each of the next three years to satisfy the debt on the land as it matures. If ARI is unable to sell at least the minimum amount of land to satisfy the land debt obligations as they mature, ARI intends to extend such debt or sell other of its assets, specifically income producing properties, to pay the debt.
Stock Loans Payable. ARI has margin arrangements with various brokerage firms and financial institutions, which provide for borrowings of up to 50.0% of the market value of marketable equity securities. The borrowings under the margin arrangements are secured by the equity securities and bear interest rates ranging from 6.75% to 24.0%. Margin borrowings totaled $18.7 million (approximately 20.8% of market value) at December 31, 2004, compared to $21.2 million at December 31, 2003. See NOTE 8. MARGIN BORROWINGS.
Equity Investments. During the fourth quarter of 1988, ARI began purchasing shares of IORI and TCI, both of which had the same advisor as ARI until June 30, 2003. It is anticipated that additional equity securities of IORI and TCI may be acquired in the future through open market and negotiated transactions to the extent ARIs liquidity permits. See ITEM 1. BUSINESS for discussion of the tender offer for shares of TCI and IORI common stock by ARI and the current ownership of TCI and IORI by ARI.
37
Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
Equity securities of IORI and TCI held by ARI may be deemed restricted securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act). Accordingly, ARI may be unable to sell such equity securities other than in a registered public offering or pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act for a one-year period after they are acquired. Such restrictions may reduce ARIs ability to realize the full fair market value of such investments if ARI attempted to dispose of such securities in a short period of time.
ARIs cash flow from these investments is dependent on the ability of IORI to make distributions. In December 2000, the Board of IORI suspended the payment of quarterly dividends. ARI received no distributions from IORI in 2004, and ARI anticipates receiving no distributions from IORI in 2005.
In 2004, ARI paid dividends to its Preferred stockholders totaling $1.6 million.
Management reviews the carrying values of ARIs properties and mortgage notes receivable at least annually and whenever events or a change in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Impairment is considered to exist if, in the case of a property, the future cash flow from the property (undiscounted and without interest) is less than the carrying amount of the property. For notes receivable, impairment is considered to exist if it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. If impairment is found to exist, a provision for loss is recorded by a charge against earnings to the extent that the investment in the note exceeds managements estimate of the fair value of the collateral securing such note. The mortgage note receivable review includes an evaluation of the collateral property securing each note. The property review generally includes: (1) selective property inspections, (2) a review of the propertys current rents compared to market rents, (3) a review of the propertys expenses, (4) a review of maintenance requirements, (5) a review of the propertys cash flow, (6) discussions with the manager of the property, and (7) a review of properties in the surrounding area.
Commitments
ARI will rely on externally generated funds, including aggressive land sales, selected sales of income producing properties, refinancing of properties and, to the extent necessary, borrowings to meet these commitments.
Results of Operations
2004 Compared to 2003. ARI reported net income of $33.2 million in 2004 compared to net income of $11.9 million in 2003. ARIs net income in 2004 included gains on the sales of real estate of $108.8 million compared to gains on the sales of real estate of $92.6 million in 2003. The primary factors contributing to ARIs net income are discussed in the following paragraphs.
ARI began consolidating TCIs operations effective March 31, 2003. (See ITEM 1. BUSINESS.) The consolidation is the principal factor for the increase during 2004 in the following areas: rents, property operations expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expense, advisory fees, and gain on sale of real estate. For these items, 2004 results are also presented without the effect of the consolidation of TCIs operations for the first three months of 2004.

The increase in apartment rents, without the effect of the consolidation of TCIs operations, was primarily attributable to completed construction. The increase in hotel rents was primarily attributable to increased occupancy. The decrease in other rents was primarily attributable to the sale of ARIs interest in Realty Advisors Korea, Ltd. as of June 30, 2003. Total rents are expected to increase in 2005, as a result of completed apartment construction.

The increase in commercial operations expense was primarily attributable to increased management fees. The increase in apartment operations expense was primarily attributable to property replacements and completed apartment construction. The increase in hotel operations expense was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs and an increase in repairs and replacement expenses. Property operations expenses are expected to increase in 2005, as a result of completed apartment construction.
Pizza parlor sales and cost of sales increased to $34.5 million and $26.7 million in 2004 from $33.1 million and $26.1 million in 2003. The increases were primarily attributable to same-store sales increases of 6.4% in 2004 from 2003 levels.
Interest income decreased to $5.3 million in 2004 from $9.2 million income in 2003. The decrease was primarily attributable to the collection of $41.2 million of notes receivable in 2003 and 2004.
Equity in loss of investees improved to $(41,000) in 2004, from $(4.4) million in 2003. Prior to March 31, 2003, ARIs equity in loss of investees included equity in TCIs operations. See NOTE 5. INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES.
Gain on foreign currency translation was $3.8 million in 2004. Gain or loss on foreign currency transaction is the result of Hotel Akademia converting long-term debt, which is denominated in Euros, into the functional currency, the Polish Zloty. The Euro weakened against the Zloty during 2004, which has resulted in TCI recognizing this gain.
Gain on settlement of debt was $10.6 million in 2004, compared to $7.2 million in 2003. The 2004 gain resulted from negotiated settlements regarding mortgage loans on an office building in Farmers Branch, Texas ($8.4 million) and land properties in Texas ($2.2 million). The 2003 gain resulted from a favorable ruling in a lender dispute regarding the mortgage loans on three office buildings in New Orleans, Louisiana ($4.4 million) and from the sale through foreclosure of a hotel in Kansas City, Missouri ($2.8 million).
Gain on condemnation award was $4.8 million in 2003, resulting from the settlement of a dispute regarding a land parcel in Dallas, Texas.

The increase in apartment depreciation and amortization was primarily attributable to completed construction. The decrease in hotel depreciation and amortization was primarily attributable to the recognition, in 2003, of depreciation from the date of purchase for improvements at one hotel that had been place in service in 1997.
Discount on sale of notes receivable was $389,000 in 2004, compared to $2.2 million in 2003. This represents the discount from the face amount given by ARI to purchasers of notes receivable. See NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE.
General and administrative expenses decreased to $18.7 million in 2004 from $22.1 million in 2003. The expenses in 2003 include $3.1 million of one-time reimbursements to BCM for legal fees.
Advisory fees increased to $10.7 million in 2004 from $9.3 million in 2003. In 2003, ARI received an operating expense refund of $1.3 million.
Provision for asset impairment increased to $8.0 million in 2004, from $7.7 million in 2003. In 2004, an office building in Farmers Branch, Texas, an office building in New Orleans, Louisiana, and 1.0 acre of land in Farmers Branch, Texas (exchanged for additional land in the first quarter of 2005) were reduced to their net realizable value.
Minority interest increased to $7.3 million in 2004 from $771,000 in 2003. Minority interest is the earnings attributable to owners, other than ARI, of certain controlled entities. Minority interest in 2004 and 2003 was

attributable, in part, to the preferred return for limited partner units of Ocean Beach Partners, L.P., Edina Park Plaza Associates, L.P., Hawthorne Lakes Associates, L.P., and ART Palm, L.P. The increase is primarily attributable to reduced minority participation in ARI partnerships and to the increase in minority interest expense related to TCIs operations.
In 2004 and 2003 gains on sale of real estate totaling $108.8 million and $92.6 million were recognized. See Note 2. REAL ESTATE.
Net income from discontinued operations was $91.5 million in 2004 compared to $29.4 million in 2003. The net income relates to 23 properties and leasehold interests in oil and gas properties that ARI sold in 2002, 32 properties that ARI sold in 2003, and 27 properties that ARI sold in 2004, and three properties ARI sold in 2005.

The increase in apartment operations expense, without the effect of the consolidation of TCIs operations, was primarily attributable to the acquisition of one apartment complex and the construction of one apartment complex in 2002 and one apartment complex in 2003. The increase in hotel operations expense was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs and an increase in repairs and replacement expenses. The decrease in land operations expense was primarily attributable to lower property taxes due to land sales.
Pizza parlor sales and cost of sales increased to $33.1 million and $26.1 million in 2003 from $32.0 million and $25.3 million in 2002. The increases were primarily attributable to same-store sales increases of 4.6% in 2003 from 2002 levels.
Interest income increased to $9.2 million in 2003 from $3.1 million income in 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to interest earned by RAK during ARIs ownership, interest received by ARI upon the sale of RAK to Realty Advisors, and notes receivable from property sales late in 2002 and early in 2003.
Equity in loss of investees improved to $(4.4) million in 2003, from $(20.9) million in 2002. The improvement was primarily attributable to the consolidation of TCIs operations by ARI effective March 31, 2003, following ARIs acquisition of more than 50.0% of TCIs common stock. Prior to March 31, 2003, and in 2002, ARIs equity in loss of investees included equity in TCIs operations. See NOTE 5. INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES.
Loss on sale of investments in equity investees was $(286,000) in 2002, recognizing the loss on the sale of Villas Continental Apartments.
Gain on settlement of debt was $7.2 million in 2003. The gain resulted from a favorable ruling in a lender dispute regarding the mortgage loans on three office buildings in New Orleans, Louisiana ($4.4 million) and from the sale through foreclosure of a hotel in Kansas City, Missouri ($2.8 million).
Gain on condemnation award was $4.8 million in 2003, resulting from the settlement of a dispute regarding a land parcel in Dallas, Texas.

Other income decreased to $3.4 million in 2003 from $5.4 million in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to $2.2 million received in 2002 in settlement of a lawsuit against a brokerage firm for improper sales in 2000 of TCI common stock owned by ARI and held by the brokerage firm, and $1.4 million received in 2002 as partial settlement of a lawsuit against a lender for improperly attempting to seize, in 1996, a mortgage note receivable due to ARI. ARI sold the note to BCM in 1999, with the provision that any settlement received in excess of the amount paid by BCM, plus accrued interest, would be returned to ARI.

The decrease in land and other interest expense, without the effect of the consolidation of TCIs operations, was primarily attributable to reduced balances payable on stock loans and land mortgages. In 2002, ARI recognized a $912,000 loss on an interest rate swap contract. See NOTE 21. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS.

The increase in hotel depreciation and amortization, without the effect of the consolidation of TCIs operations, was primarily attributable to the recognition of depreciation from the date of purchase for improvements at one hotel that had been placed in service in 1997.
Discount on sale of notes receivable was $2.2 million in 2003. This represents the discount from the face amount given by ARI to purchasers of notes receivable. See NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE.
General and administrative expenses increased to $22.1 million in 2003 from $12.5 million in 2002. The expenses in 2003 include $3.1 million of one-time reimbursements to BCM for legal fees. Without the effect of the consolidation, general and administrative expenses increased to $14.6 million, which included $1.4 million of the legal fee reimbursement to BCM.
Advisory fees increased to $9.3 million in 2003 from $5.9 million in 2002. Without the effect of the consolidation, advisory fees increased to $6.0 million.
Provision for asset impairment increased to $7.7 million in 2003, from $3.7 million in 2002. In 2003, the carrying value of an office building in Farmers Branch, Texas, was reduced to its net realizable value. In 2002,

the carrying value of an 89.3 acre tract of land in Palm Desert, California (sold in the first quarter of 2003) was reduced to its net realizable value.
Loss on foreign currency transaction was $3.3 million in 2003. Loss on foreign currency transaction is the result of Hotel Akademia converting long-term debt, which is denominated in Euros, into the functional currency, the Polish Zloty. The Euro strengthened against the Zloty during 2003, which has resulted in TCI recognizing this charge.
Minority interest decreased to $771,000 in 2003 from $1.3 million in 2002. Minority interest is the earnings attributable to owners, other than ARI, of certain controlled entities. Minority interest in 2003 and 2002 was attributable, in part, to the preferred return for limited partner units of Ocean Beach Partners, L.P., Valley Ranch, L.P., Edina Park Plaza Associates, L.P., Hawthorne Lakes Associates, L.P., ART Florida Portfolio I, ART Florida Portfolio II, ART Florida Portfolio III and ART Palm, L.P. The decrease is primarily attributable to reduced minority participation in ARI partnerships and to the consolidation of TCIs operations by ARI effective March 31, 2003, following ARIs acquisition of more than 50.0% of TCIs common shares.
In 2003 and 2002, gains on sale of real estate totaling $92.6 million and $48.4 million were recognized.
Net income from discontinued operations was $29.4 million in 2003 compared to $47.6 million in 2002. The net income relates to 23 properties and leasehold interests in oil and gas properties that ARI sold during 2002, 32 properties that ARI sold in 2003, 27 properties that ARI sold in 2004, and three properties ARI sold in 2005.

Related Party Transactions
Historically, ARI, TCI, IORI, BCM and Prime have each engaged in and may continue to engage in business transactions, including real estate partnerships, with related parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions represented the best investments available at the time and were at least as advantageous to ARI as could have been obtained from unrelated parties.
Operating Relationships
In October 2003, ARI entered into a lease with Prime for space at the One Hickory Centre Office Building. The lease was for 59,115 sq. ft. (approximately 59.0% of the building), has a term of three years, and provided for annual base rent of $1.3 million, or $21.50 per sq. ft. Effective May 1, 2004, the lease was amended to 54,404 sq. ft. (approximately 56.0% of the building), with an annual base rent of $1.2 million, or $21.50 per sq. ft.

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
ARI received rents of $69,000 in 2004 from BCM for BCMs lease at Addison Hanger. BCM owns a corporate jet that is housed at the hanger and ARI has available space at the hanger.
In 2004, ARI paid BCM, Prime, their affiliates and a related party $10.7 million in advisory fees, $1.9 million in net income fees, $1.9 million in loan arrangement fees, $578,000 in property acquisition fees, $8.4 million in real estate brokerage commissions, $5.6 million in construction supervision fees and $6.7 million in property and construction management fees and leasing commissions, net of property management fees paid to subcontractors, other than affiliates of BCM. In addition, as provided in the Advisory Agreement, BCM and Prime received cost reimbursements of $4.6 million.
Partnership Transactions
BCM has entered into put agreements with certain holders of the Class A limited partner units of Ocean Beach Partners, L.P. The Class A units are convertible into Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock of ARI. The put price of the Series D Preferred Stock is $20.00 per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends.
BCM has entered into put agreements with the holders of the Class A units of ART Palm, L.P. Such Class A units are convertible into Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of ARI. The put price for the Class A units is $1.00 per unit and the put price for either the Series C Preferred Stock or ARIs Common Stock is 90.0% of the average daily closing price of ARIs Common Stock for the prior 20 trading days. The put agreement calls for ARI to repurchase the outstanding Class A units as follows: December 31, 2005875,000 units; and December 31, 20065,938,750 units.
Advances and Loans
From time-to-time, ARI and its affiliates have made advances to each other, which have not had specific repayment terms, do not bear interest, are unsecured and have been reflected in ARIs financial statements as other assets or other liabilities. At December 31, 2004, after accounting for affiliate purchases and sales, amounts still owed by ARI were $260,000 and $1.2 million to IORI and Regis I, respectively. Also at December 31, 2004, ARI was owed $13.6 million and $1.4 million by BCM, Prime and Regis I, respectively.
Activity in 2004 included:
In January 2004, ARI issued 200,000 shares of Series A 10.0% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock to Prime, ARIs advisor. In February 2004, 50,000 additional shares were issued to Prime. ARIs affiliate receivable was increased by $2.5 million.
In February 2004, ARI obtained an unsecured loan of $5.0 million. The proceeds of $5.0 million were received by an affiliate of ARI, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable.
In February 2004, ARI obtained financing of $7.5 million on the Katy land tract. The funds, along with additional cash of $6.3 million, were sent to an affiliate. Subsequently, the affiliate paid off the existing loan balance on an ARI property.
In March 2001, ARI funded $13.6 million of a $15.0 million unsecured line of credit to One Realco. A wholly-owned subsidiary of One Realco owns approximately 2.2% of the outstanding shares of ARIs Common Stock. One Realco periodically borrows money to meet its cash obligations. The line of credit bore interest at 12.0% per annum. All principal and interest were due at maturity in February 2002. The line of credit is guaranteed by BCM. In June 2001, $810,000 in principal and interest was collected. In December 2001, $825,000 in principal and interest was collected. In February 2002, the line of credit was increased to $18.0 million, accrued but unpaid interest of $217,000 was added to the principal, and the maturity date was extended to February 2004. In March 2002, ARI funded an additional $1.8 million, increasing the outstanding principal

balance to $15.5 million. In October 2002, $856,900 in interest was collected, by the return of 85,690 shares of ARI Series A Preferred Stock. In June 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of the $15.5 million balance to BCM; receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM (see NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION.) In February 2004, $2.3 million in interest was collected, accrued but unpaid interest of $161,000 was added to the principal, the maturity date was extended to February 2007, and the interest rate was changed to 3.0% over the prime rate, currently at 8.75%. All principal and interest are due at maturity. Ronald E. Kimbrough, Acting Principal Executive Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of ARI until May 31, 2004, was a 10.0% shareholder of One Realco until July 31, 2004. Mr. Kimbrough did not participate in the day-to-day operations or management of One Realco.
In March 2004, ARI obtained financing of $11.5 million on a hotel property. The proceeds of $11.0 million were received by an affiliate, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable.
In April 2004, $825,000 was advanced under a security loan arrangement with a financial institution. The proceeds were paid to an affiliate, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable.
In July 2004, ARI obtained a loan of $3.2 million secured by a contract for sale of the Waters Edge III Apartments. The proceeds of $3.2 million were received by an affiliate, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable.
In October 2004, ARI advanced $3.3 million to the Class A Limited Partners of Edina Park Plaza Associates, Limited Partnership, of which ARI is the general partner. The loans bear interest at 10.0% per annum and mature in September 2017. Interest due to ARI will be deducted from the quarterly return owed by ARI to the Class A Limited Partners, eliminating the quarterly payments. The outstanding principal is due at maturity.
In October 1999, ARI funded a $4.7 million loan to Realty Advisors. The loan, to provide funds for acquisitions or working capital needs, was secured by all of the outstanding shares of common stock of American Reserve Life Insurance Company. The loan bore interest at 10.25% per annum, and matured in November 2001. In January 2000, $100,000 was collected. In November 2001, the maturity date was extended to November 2004. The collateral was changed to a pledge of 850,000 shares of ARI Common Stock owned by BCM. The interest rate was changed to 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75% per annum, and the accrued but unpaid interest of $1.0 million was added to the principal. The new principal balance is $5.6 million. In September 2003, $0.7 million in accrued interest was collected. In August 2004, $0.3 million in accrued interest was collected. In November 2004, the maturity date was extended to November 2006. All principal and accrued interest are due at maturity.
Property Transactions
Activity in 2004 included:
In December 2003, ARI sold seven properties to subsidiaries of Unified Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF), a Texas Non-Profit 501(c)3 Corporation. ARI sold 39.3 acres of Pioneer Crossing land for $3.9 million, 10.7 acres of Marine Creek land for $1.5 million, the Limestone at Vista Ridge Apartments for $19.0 million, the Cliffs of El Dorado Apartments for $13.4 million, the Limestone Canyon Apartments for $18.0 million, the Sendero Ridge Apartments for $29.4 million, and Tivoli Apartments for $16.1 million. All of the transactions included the assumption of debt and notes receivable to ARI for the remainder of the purchase price. Ted Stokely, Chairman of the Board of ARI, is the General Manager of UHF. Richard Humphrey, who is employed by Regis Realty I, LLC, an affiliate, is President of UHF. Due to UHF being considered a related party to ARI and ARI having continued involvement and control of these entities, these transactions have not been recorded as sales. Instead, these transactions will be accounted for on the deposit method, and the properties and corresponding debt will continue to be consolidated by ARI. All of these transactions were approved by ARIs Board of Directors. Mr. Stokely abstained from voting on all of these transactions. The loans on Limestone Canyon apartments and Limestone at Vista Ridge apartments were approved by their prospective lenders for
46
Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
transfer to the purchasing entities. ARI has guaranteed the loans on both of these transfers. Also, Marine Creek land and the Cliffs of El Dorado apartments were recognized as sales during 2004. See NOTE 2. REAL ESTATE. Management is currently seeking lender approval on the transfer of the notes associated with the Tivoli apartments and Sendero Ridge apartments.
In December 2003, ARI sold a tract of Marine Creek land to a subsidiary of United Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF) for $1.5 million, receiving cash and a note receivable. This sale was not recognized as a sale at that time because UHF is a related party and ARI has continuing involvement and control. In February 2004, Marine Creek was refinanced by UHF, which paid in full ARIs note payable on the land. ARI recorded the sale of the land and received a note receivable of $270,000, which was the difference between the sales price and the amount of ARIs note payable. The note bears interest at 6.0%, requires quarterly payments from available surplus cash and matures in December 2007. See Note 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.
In May 2004, ARI purchased the Treehouse Apartments from an affiliate, with a net purchase price of $7.5 million after assumption of debt and a note receivable, less cash received of $0.5 million. The note receivable was from the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado Apartments to a related party in 2003. At that time, the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado was not recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. ARI recorded the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado in May 2004, due to payment received for the Cliffs of El Dorado note receivable.
In September 2004, ARI sold Limestone Canyon II land to a subsidiary of UHF for $720,000 in the form of a seller note receivable. Due to no cash received and common control, ARI has elected to continue consolidating this tract of land until the requirements for a sale have been met. No sale was recognized and no note receivable has been recorded.
In April 2002, ARI and TCI sold 21 apartment properties to partnerships controlled by Metra Capital, LLC (Metra). Innovo Group, Inc. (Innovo) is a limited partner in the partnerships that purchased the properties. Joseph Mizrachi, then a director of ARI, controlled approximately 11.67% of the outstanding common stock of Innovo. Management determined to treat the sales as financing transactions, and ARI and TCI continue to report the assets and the new debt incurred by Metra on their financial statements. The partnership agreements for each of these partnerships state that the Metra Partners, as defined, receive cash flow distributions at least quarterly in an amount sufficient to provide them with a 15.0% cumulative compounded annual rate of return on their invested capital, as well as a cumulative compounded annual amount of 0.50% of the average outstanding balance of the mortgage indebtedness secured by any of these properties. These distributions to the Metra Partners have priority over distributions to any other partners. At December 31, 2004, 16 of the properties remained on ARIs balance sheet, and ARIs other liabilities included $1.4 million owed to the Metra Partners related to cash received by ARI upon the sale of these apartments in April 2002.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, ARI may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property) where property-level managers have arranged for the removal, disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air, and third parties may seek recovery for personal injury associated with such materials.
Management is not aware of any environmental liability relating to the above matters that would have a material adverse effect on ARIs business, assets or results of operations.
Inflation
The effects of inflation on ARIs operations are not quantifiable. Revenues from property operations tend to fluctuate proportionately with inflationary increases and decreases in housing costs. Fluctuations in the rate of
47
Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
inflation also affect the sales values of properties and the ultimate gains to be realized from property sales. To the extent that inflation affects interest rates, earnings from short-term investments and the cost of new financings as well as the cost of variable interest rate debt will be affected.
48
Table of Contents

ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. |
ARIs future operations, cash flow and fair values of financial instruments are partially dependent upon the then existing market interest rates and market equity prices. Market risk is the changes in the market rates and prices and the affect of the changes on the future operations. Market risk is managed by matching a propertys anticipated net operating income to an appropriate financing.
The following table contains only those exposures that existed at December 31, 2004. Anticipation of exposures of risk on positions that could possibly arise was not considered. ARIs ultimate interest rate risk and its effect on operations will depend on future capital market exposures, which cannot be anticipated with a probable assurance level. Dollars in thousands.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of American Realty Investors, Inc. and consolidated subsidiaries have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the most significant of which are described in NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. These, along with the remainder of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, are an integral part of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The data presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are as of December 31 of each year and for the year then ended, unless otherwise indicated. Dollar amounts in tables and accompanying footnotes are in thousands, except per share amounts.
Certain balances for 2002 and 2003 have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation.
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and business. In November 1999, American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI), a Nevada corporation, was formed, and in August 2000, ARI acquired American Realty Trust, Inc. (ART), a Georgia corporation and National Realty, L.P. (NRLP), a Delaware partnership that primarily invests in real estate and real estate-related entities and purchases and originates mortgage loans.
The acquisition of ART and NRLP by ARI was completed on August 2, 2000. NRLP unit holders, except for ART, received one share of ARI Common Stock for each unit of NRLP held. ART stockholders received .91 shares of ARI Common Stock for each share of ART Common Stock held. Each share of ART Preferred Stock was converted into one share of Preferred Stock of ARI, having substantially the same rights as ARTs Preferred Stock. The ART shares of Common Stock ceased trading on the New York Stock Exchange on August 2, 2000. The NRLP units of limited partner interest ceased trading on the American Stock Exchange on August 2, 2000. ARI Common Stock commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange on August 3, 2000.
On October 23, 2001, ARI, Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (TCI), and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (IORI) jointly announced a preliminary agreement with the plaintiffs legal counsel of the derivative action entitled Olive et al. V. National Income Realty Trust, et al. for complete settlement of all disputes in the lawsuit (the Olive Litigation). In February 2002, the court granted final approval of the proposed settlement (the Olive Settlement). Under the Olive Settlement, ARI agreed to either (i) acquire all of the outstanding shares of IORI and TCI not currently owned by ARI for a cash payment or shares of ARI preferred stock or (ii) make a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of IORI and TCI not currently owned by ARI. On November 15, 2002, ARI commenced the tender offer for the IORI and TCI shares. The tender offer was completed on March 19, 2003. ARI paid $19.00 cash per IORI share and $17.50 cash per TCI share for the stock held by non-affiliated stockholders. Pursuant to the tender offer, ARI acquired 265,036 IORI shares and 1,213,226 TCI shares. The completion of the tender offer fulfills the obligations under the Olive Settlement and the Olive Litigation has been dismissed with prejudice.
After the tender offer, ARI owned 64.8% of the outstanding shares of TCI and 62.5% of the outstanding shares of IORI (46.9% owned directly by ARI and 15.6% through TCIs ownership of IORI shares). ARI began consolidation of TCIs and IORIs accounts and operations effective March 31, 2003. The effect of consolidating TCIs and IORIs operations from the completion of the tender offer through March 31, 2003 was determined to be immaterial. Through June 30, 2003, ARI had the same advisor as TCI and IORI, and TCI and IORI had the same board of directors. At December 31, 2004, ARI and TCI have the same Board of Directors, and a director of ARI (Ted Stokely) also serves as a director of IORI.
On June 2, 2003, ARI exchanged all of its 674,971 IORI shares with Basic Capital Management, Inc. (BCM), receiving 650,000 TCI shares from BCM. In addition, BCM has executed a promissory note in favor

of ARI in the amount of $526,000 (see NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE). After the exchange, ARI owned 72.9% of the outstanding shares of TCI. On June 30, 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of its $15.5 million line of credit receivable from One Realco Corporation (One Realco) to BCM, receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM (see NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE). After the transaction, ARI owned 76.8% of the outstanding shares of TCI. In December 2003, ARI purchased 88,600 TCI shares in market transactions and 204,633 TCI shares in transactions with related parties for a total of $1.4 million. At December 31, 2004, ARI owned 82.2% of the outstanding shares of TCI. ARI no longer directly owns any IORI shares. At December 31, 2004, ARI owned 19.7% of IORI through TCIs ownership of IORI shares. ARI ceased consolidation of IORIs accounts and operations effective June 2, 2003.
The following pro forma information reflects the results of operations for ARI as though the consolidation of TCIs operations had begun on January 1, 2003.

On June 30, 2003, ARI sold its 71.4% interest in Realty Advisors Korea, Ltd. (RAK) to Realty Advisors, Inc. (Realty Advisors), a related party, for $6.0 million, reducing ARIs affiliate debt. Realty Advisors also paid ARI $600,000, representing 10.0% interest on the $6.0 million price paid by ARI to purchase the 71.4% interest in RAK in 2002.
Effective July 1, 2003, Prime Asset Management, Inc. (PAMI) became the advisor to ARI and TCI. PAMI is owned by Realty Advisors (79.0%) and Syntek West, Inc. (Syntek West) (21.0%), related parties. Syntek West is owned by Gene Phillips. Effective August 18, 2003, PAMI changed its name to Prime Income Asset Management, Inc. (PIAMI). On October 1, 2003, Prime Income Asset Management, LLC (Prime), which is 100% owned by PIAMI, replaced PIAMI as the advisor to ARI and TCI.
Basis of consolidation. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of ARI, and all controlled subsidiaries and partnerships. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Accounting estimates. In the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, it is necessary for 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 Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense for the year then ended. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Non-performing notes receivable. ARI considers a note receivable to be non-performing when the maturity date has passed without principal repayment and the borrower is not making interest payments. Any new note receivable that results from a modification or extension of a note considered non-performing will also be considered non-performing, without regard to the borrowers adherence to payment terms.

Interest recognition on notes receivable. Interest income is not recognized on notes receivable that have been delinquent for 60 days or more. In addition, accrued but unpaid interest income is only recognized to the extent that the net realizable value of the underlying collateral exceeds the carrying value of the receivable.
Allowance for estimated losses. A valuation allowance is provided for estimated losses on notes receivable considered to be impaired. Impairment is considered to exist when it is probable that all amounts due under the terms of the note will not be collected. Valuation allowances are provided for estimated losses on notes receivable to the extent that the investment in the note exceeds managements estimate of fair value of the collateral securing such note.
Recent Accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 151In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151, Inventory Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 (SFAS No. 151). SFAS No. 151 amends ARB 43, Chapter 4, to clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials (spoilage) be recognized as current period charges. It also requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 151 is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of ARI.
SFAS No. 152In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 152, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions (SFAS No. 152). SFAS No. 152 amends FASB Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position 04-2, Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions (SOP 04-2). This Statement also amends FASB Statement No. 67, Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects, to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2.
SFAS No. 152 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, and is to be reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of ARI.
SFAS No. 123In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Share-Based Payment, revised (SFAS No. 123R). SFAS No. 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options. Under the new standard, companies will no longer be able to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Instead, companies will be required to account for such transactions using a fair-value method and recognize the expense in the consolidated statement of income. SFAS No. 123R will be effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and allows, but does not require, companies to restate the full fiscal year of 2005 to reflect the impact of expensing share-based payments under SFAS No. 123R. The Company has not yet determined which fair-value method and transitional provision it will follow. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations. See Stock-Based Employee Compensation for the pro forma impact on net income and net income per share from calculating stock-based compensation costs under the fair value alternative of SFAS No. 123.
SFAS No. 153In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets, An Amendment of APB Opinion
60

Index to Financial Statements
AMERICAN REALTY INVESTORS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
No. 29 (SFAS No. 153). The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions, is based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS No. 153 is effective for non-monetary asset exchanges in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of ARI.
Real estate held for investment and depreciation. Real estate held for investment is carried at cost. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144), requires that a property be considered impaired if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the property. If impairment exists, an impairment loss is recognized, by a charge against earnings, equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the fair value less cost to sell the property. If impairment of a property is recognized, the carrying amount of the property is reduced by the amount of the impairment, and a new cost for the property is established. Such new cost is depreciated over the propertys remaining useful life. Depreciation is provided by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which range from five to 40 years.
Real estate held for sale. Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at new cost, defined as the lower of original cost or fair value minus estimated costs of sale. SFAS No. 144 also requires that properties held for sale be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs of sale. If a reduction in a held for sale propertys carrying amount to fair value less costs of sale is required, a provision for loss is recognized by a charge against earnings. Subsequent revisions, either upward or downward, to a held for sale propertys estimated fair value less costs of sale are recorded as an adjustment to the propertys carrying amount, but not in excess of the propertys carrying amount when originally classified as held for sale. A corresponding charge against or credit to earnings is recognized. Properties held for sale are not depreciated.
Investments in equity investees. ARI may be considered to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and investment policies of certain of its investees. Those investees are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, an initial investment, recorded at cost, is increased by a proportionate share of the investees operating income and any additional investment and decreased by a proportionate share of the investees operating losses and distributions received.
Present value premiums/discounts. Present value premiums and discounts are provided on notes receivable or payable that have interest rates that differ substantially from prevailing market rates and such premiums and discounts are amortized by the interest method over the lives of the related notes. The factors considered in determining a market rate for notes receivable include the borrowers credit standing, nature of the collateral and payment terms of the note.
Foreign Currency Translation. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with local functional currencies are translated to United States dollars at year-end exchange rates. The effects of translation are recorded in the cumulative translation component of shareholders equity. Subsidiaries with a United States dollar functional currency remeasure monetary assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates and non-monetary assets and liabilities at historical exchange rates. The effects of re-measurement are included in income. Exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at average exchange rates. The effects of these exchange adjustments are included in income and amounted to a gain of $3.8 million in 2004 and a loss of $3.3 million in 2003.

Revenue recognition on the sale of real estate. Sales of real estate are recognized when and to the extent permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate (SFAS No. 66), as amended by SFAS No. 144. Until the requirements of SFAS No. 66 for full profit recognition have been met, transactions are accounted for using either the deposit, the installment, the cost recovery, or the financing method, whichever is appropriate.
Operating segments. Management has determined reportable operating segments to be those that are used for internal reporting purposes, which disaggregates operations by type of real estate.
Fair value of financial instruments. The following assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of its notes receivable, marketable equity securities and notes payable. For performing notes receivable, the fair value was estimated by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar loans. For non-performing notes receivable, the estimated fair value of ARIs interest in the collateral property was used. For marketable equity securities, fair value was based on the year-end closing market price of each security. For notes payable, the fair value was estimated using current rates for mortgages with similar terms and maturities.
Cash equivalents. For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Earnings (loss) per share. Income (loss) per share is presented in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Income (loss) per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during each year.
Stock-based employee compensation. Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations are utilized by management in accounting for the option plans. All share options issued have exercise prices equal to the market price of the shares at the dates of grant. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the option plans. Had compensation cost for the option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated below.

called a default under the ARI wrap note, and directed future payments be made directly to them. ARI began legal proceedings against the first lienholder. In December 1999, ARI sold the note to BCM at its carrying value of $489,000, retaining the right to receive any amounts collected by BCM in excess of the amount paid, plus accrued interest. In 2002, ARI prevailed in its litigation and ARIs lien on the property was restored. The borrower continued in default, and ARI foreclosed on the property in March 2003.

| $125,000 secured by a 100% interest in an affiliated company that owns an apartment building. This note bears interest at 12.0%, only requires payments if surplus cash is available and matures in April 2009. |

In September 1999, in conjunction with the sale of two apartments in Austin, Texas, $2.1 million in purchase money financing was provided, secured by limited partnership interests in two limited partnerships owned by the buyer. The financing bore interest at 16.0% per annum, required monthly payments of interest only at 6.0% per annum beginning in February 2000, required a $200,000 principal pay down in December 1999, which was not received, and matured in August 2000. ARI had the option of obtaining the buyers general and limited partnership interests in the collateral partnerships in full satisfaction of the financing. In March 2000, ARI agreed to forbear foreclosing on the collateral securing the note and released one of the partnership interests, in exchange for a payment of $250,000 and executed deeds of trusts on certain properties owned by the buyer. In March 2000, the borrower made a $1.1 million payment, upon receipt of which ARI returned the deeds of trust. The borrower executed a replacement promissory note for the remaining note balance of $1.0 million, which was unsecured, non-interest bearing and matured in April 2003.

At March 2005, the improvements have begun. The future costs to ARI to complete the improvements, estimated to be $2.5 million, were accrued in 2002. A principal payment of $450,000 is due within ten days after a Tentative Parcel Map (the Map) is recorded. At March 2005, negotiations with the buyer to settle any further obligations are underway. Interest payments will be due on the first day of each calendar quarter, beginning with the first quarter following the completion of the site improvements.

In February 2005, the note was exchanged for 23.0 acres of land in Palm Desert, California. See Note 23. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS. In July 2003, ARI advanced an additional $357,000 to the borrower. The new note bore interest at 8.0% per annum and matured in July 2004. In November 2003, the note was collected in full, including accrued but unpaid interest.
Related Parties. In March 2001, ARI funded $13.6 million of a $15.0 million unsecured line of credit to One Realco. A wholly-owned subsidiary of One Realco owns approximately 2.2% of the outstanding shares of ARIs Common Stock. The line of credit bore interest at 12.0% per annum. All principal and interest were due at maturity in February 2002. The line of credit is guaranteed by BCM. In June 2001, $810,000 in principal and interest was collected. In December 2001, $825,000 in principal and interest was collected. In February 2002, the line of credit was increased to $18.0 million, accrued but unpaid interest of $217,000 was added to the principal, and the maturity date was extended to February 2004. In March 2002, ARI funded an additional $1.8 million, increasing the outstanding principal balance to $15.5 million. In October 2002, $856,900 in interest was collected, by the return of 85,690 shares of ARI Series A Preferred Stock. In June 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of the $15.5 million balance to BCM, receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM (see NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION.) In February 2004, $2.3 million in interest was collected, accrued but unpaid interest of $161,000 was added to the principal, the maturity date was extended to February 2007, and the interest rate was changed to 3.0% over the prime rate, currently at 8.75%. All principal and interest are due at maturity. Ronald E. Kimbrough, Acting Principal Executive Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of ARI until May 31, 2004, was a 10.0% shareholder of One Realco until July 31, 2004. Mr. Kimbrough did not participate in the day-to-day operations or management of One Realco.
In March 2004, ARI sold a K-Mart in Cary, North Carolina to BCM for $3.2 million, including the assumption of debt. ARI also provided $1.5 million of the purchase price as seller financing. The secured note bears interest at 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75%, and matures in April 2005.
In March 2004, ARI sold the Texstar Warehouse in Arlington, Texas to BCM for $2.4 million, including the assumption of debt. ARI also provided $1.3 million of the purchase price as seller financing. The secured note bears interest at 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75%, and matures in April 2005.
In December 2003, ARI sold a tract of Marine Creek land to a subsidiary of United Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF) for $1.5 million, receiving cash and a note receivable. This sale was not recognized as a sale at that time because UHF is a related party and ARI has continuing involvement and control. In February 2004, Marine Creek was refinanced by UHF, which paid in full ARIs note payable on the land. ARI recorded the sale of the land and received a note receivable of $270,000, which was the difference between the sales price and the amount of ARIs note payable. The note bears interest at 6.0%, requires quarterly payments from available surplus cash and matures in December 2007. See Note 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.
In October 2004, ARI advanced $3.3 million to the Class A Limited Partners of Edina Park Plaza Associates, Limited Partnership, of which ARI is the general partner. The loans bear interest at 10.0% per annum and mature in September 2017. Interest due to ARI will be deducted from the quarterly return owed by ARI to the Class A Limited Partners, eliminating the quarterly payments. The outstanding principal is due at maturity.

Related Party. In October 2004, ARI contemplated the sale of the common stock of TCI Lexington Corp, which owns the Lexington Center office building in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to One Realco Office Investors, Inc., a related party, for the assumption of debt of $4.9 million, which was subject to lender approval, and a seller note of $237,00. The assumption of debt by One Realco Office Investors, Inc. was not approved by the lender; therefore, ARIs Board of Directors rescinded their approval of the transaction. ARI extended the loan on the Lexington Center with the lender in December 2004.
In October 1999, ARI funded a $4.7 million loan to Realty Advisors. The loan, to provide funds for acquisitions or working capital needs, was secured by all of the outstanding shares of common stock of American Reserve Life Insurance Company. The loan bore interest at 10.25% per annum and matured in November 2001. In January 2000, $100,000 was collected. In November 2001, the maturity date was extended to November 2004. The collateral was changed to a pledge of 850,000 shares of ARI Common Stock owned by BCM. The interest rate was changed to 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75% per annum, and the accrued but unpaid interest of $1.0 million was added to the principal. The new principal balance is $5.6 million. In September 2003, $673,000 in accrued interest was collected. In August 2004, $342,000 in accrued interest was collected. In November 2004, the maturity date was extended to November 2006. All principal and accrued interest are due at maturity.
In October 2003, ARI advanced $1.6 million to the Class A Limited Partners of Encino Executive Plaza, Ltd., of which ARI is the general partner. The loans bear interest at 8.5% per annum and mature in June 2006. Interest due to ARI will be deducted from the quarterly return owed by ARI to the Class A Limited Partners, eliminating the quarterly payments. The outstanding principal is due at maturity.

NOTE 5. | INVESTMENTS IN EQUITY INVESTEES |
Before 2003, ARIs investment in real estate entities included equity securities of IORI and TCI, and interests in real estate joint venture partnerships. BCM, ARIs advisor until June 30, 2003, also served as advisor to IORI and TCI until June 30, 2003.
Through March 31, 2003, ARI accounted for its investment in IORI and TCI and the joint venture partnerships using the equity method. ARI began consolidation of TCIs and IORIs accounts and operations effective March 31, 2003. See NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The effect of consolidating TCIs and IORIs operations from the completion of the tender offer through March 31, 2003 was determined to be immaterial. On June 2, 2003, ARI exchanged all of its 674,971 IORI shares with BCM, receiving 650,000 TCI shares from BCM. In addition, BCM has executed a promissory note in favor of ARI in the amount of $526,000 (see NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE). After the exchange, ARI owned 72.9% of the outstanding shares of TCI. On June 30, 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of its $15.5 million line of credit receivable from One Realco to BCM, receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM (see NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE). After the transaction, ARI owned 76.8% of the outstanding shares of TCI. In

December 2003, ARI purchased 88,600 TCI shares in market transactions and 204,633 TCI shares in transactions with related parties for a total of $1.4 million. At December 31, 2004, ARI owned 82.2% of the outstanding shares of TCI. ARI no longer directly owns any IORI shares. At December 31, 2004, ARI owned 19.7% of IORI through TCIs ownership of IORI shares. ARI ceased consolidation of IORIs accounts and operations effective June 2, 2003.
ARI is a non-controlling 30.0% general partner in Sacramento Nine (SAC 9), which owned an office building in Rancho Cordova, California. In December 2004, SAC 9 sold the office building for $3.7 million, of which ARI received $1.1 million after closing costs and fees. ARI recognized a gain on the sale of investment in SAC 9 of $882,000 relating to this transaction.
In December 2004, ARI sold a 95% interest in Garden Centura, L.P. that owns the 410,901 sq. ft. Centura Tower office building located in Farmers Branch, Texas. ARI retained a non-controlling 1% general partner and 4% limited partner interest in Garden Centura, L.P. ARI will account for its investment in this partnership on the cost basis.
The investments in IORI and the joint venture partnerships are accounted for using the equity method as more fully described in NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESInvestments in equity investees.
A significant portion of ARIs investment in IORI and TCI is pledged as collateral for borrowings. See NOTE 7. NOTES AND INTEREST PAYABLE and NOTE 8. MARGIN BORROWINGS.

The cash flow from IORI is dependent on the ability of IORI to make distributions. IORI ceased making quarterly distributions in the fourth quarter of 2000.
ARI initially acquired its investment in IORI and TCI in 1989.

Stated interest rates on notes payable ranged from 4.0% to 14.8% per annum at December 31, 2004 and matured in varying installments between 2005 and 2046. At December 31, 2004, notes payable were collateralized by deeds of trust on real estate with a net carrying value of $1,109.1 million.
Prior to February 2004, the Brandeis Office Building in Denver, Colorado was occupied by two tenants, one of which occupied a significant portion of the building. The larger tenant built its own building and moved out, resulting in the office building being at only approximately 20% occupancy. The loan matured in December 2003, and ARI proposed an extension of the maturity of the loan. The lender desired a sufficient pay down of the loan. In February 2004, the title to the Brandeis Office Building was transferred to the lender by agreement. Outstanding indebtedness and accrued interest at that time was $8.8 million. ARI recorded a net impairment of $4.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 for this transaction.
A subsidiary of ARI developed and constructed a commercial property in Texas, consisting of a 220,000 square foot building, with construction financing guaranteed by ARI. Several challenges occurred with respect to the construction of the property, involving work stoppages, completion of construction by the prime contractor, and actions of the prime contractor with respect to subcontractors. The construction loan matured and ARI proposed to the lender a month-to-month extension, but the lender desired an extension for a two-year period with fees and points which ARI considered to be excessive. During December 2003, ARI sold the property to a related party, which instituted a reorganization proceeding, in an effort to restructure the indebtedness on the property. In November 2004, ARI settled with the contractor, who was also the junior lender, and modified and extended its debt with the primary lender. ARI recognized an $8.4 million gain on settlement of debt for these transactions.

NOTE 8. | MARGIN BORROWINGS |
ARI has margin arrangements with various financial institutions and brokerage firms, which provide for borrowings of up to 50.0% of the market value of marketable equity securities. The borrowings under such margin arrangements are secured by the equity securities of IORI and TCI and ARIs trading portfolio securities and bear interest rates ranging from 6.75% to 24.0% per annum. Margin borrowings were $18.7 million at December 31, 2004 and $21.2 million at December 31, 2003, representing 20.8% and 22.2%, respectively, of the market values of the equity securities at those dates.
Sunset Management Loan. On October 5, 2004, Sunset Management, LLC (Sunset) filed a complaint as a purported stockholders derivative action on behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. (TCI) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, against American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI), Basic Capital Management, Inc. (BCM), Prime Income Asset Management, Inc. (PIAMI), Prime Income Asset Management LLC (Prime), Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. (IORI), United Housing Foundation, Inc. (United), Regis Realty, Inc. (Regis), TCI, TCIs current directors and officers and others. Sunsets complaint was instituted as Case No. 3:04-CV-02162-B styled Sunset Management, LLC, derivatively on behalf of Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. v. American Realty Investors, Inc., et al. Sunsets complaint alleges (i) Sunset is the owner of ten shares of Common Stock of TCI, and Sunset is the pledgee and beneficial owner of 3,673,115 shares of Common Stock of TCI, (ii) Sunset is a single-member limited liability company, (iii) that all of the defendants have in their various capacities breached fiduciary duties to TCI and (iv) unjust enrichment of the various defendants. Sunsets complaint seeks an injunction prohibiting TCI from entering into any related-party transactions that are not fair to TCI and approved by disinterested directors and/or the stockholders with full knowledge of the common interest of the directors and/or officers, unspecified damages, attorneys fees and costs. Individual directors and officers of TCI do not believe their interests are adverse to TCI in this matter. All defendants believe the action is not properly brought as a derivative action on behalf of TCI, as Sunsets interests are adverse to the interests of TCI. The current action brought by Sunset contains many of the same allegations raised by Sunset in four other cases, which, as rulings have occurred, have resulted in a denial of Sunsets requested relief.
The Defendants intend to vigorously defend the action and have filed a Motion to Dismiss the case pursuant to Rules 12 and 23.1 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on the basis that Sunsets allegations are insufficient to evade the stringent demand requirement under the futility exception for stockholder derivative actions, and that Sunset cannot fairly and adequately represent the interests of other stockholders.

On December 23, 2004, Sunset filed another Complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, against ARI, BCM, EQK Holdings, Inc. (EQK) and American Realty Trust, Inc. (ART). EQK and ART are subsidiaries of ARI. Sunsets Complaint was instituted as Case No. 3:04-CV-02710-K styled Sunset Management LLC, Plaintiff v. American Realty Investors, Inc., Basic Capital Management, Inc., EQK Holdings, Inc. and American Realty Trust, Inc., alleging (i) that on September 17, 2001, Sunset lent BCM, EQK, ART and ART Williamsburg, Inc. $30,000,000, and in connection with such loan, BCM, EQK and ART pledged 3,673,115 shares of TCI stock to Sunset; 2,129,701 TCI shares pledged to Sunset by EQK; 920,507 TCI shares pledged to Sunset by BCM, and 622,907 shares pledged to Sunset by ART, (ii) that each of the stock pledge agreements specifically provides that the borrower will not without the written consent of Sunset, sell, dispose of, transfer directly or indirectly, or further encumber the Pledged Securities, (iii) some or all of the shares pledged by BCM and ART had been transferred to one or more subsidiaries of ARI in violation of the stock pledge agreements, (iv) BCM and ART have allegedly breached the stock pledge agreements by transferring certain shares of TCI, (v) that ARI and EQK have allegedly tortuously interfered with existing contractual relationships among BCM, ART and Sunset. Sunsets Complaint seeks specific performance under the stock pledge agreements, and that the Court enter an Order (a) requiring ART to reacquire at least 534,307 pledged shares it allegedly transferred to EQK, (b) requiring BCM to reacquire at least 920,507 pledged shares it allegedly transferred to EQK, (c) requiring EQK to transfer 534,307 pledged shares back to ART, and (d) requiring EQK 920,507 pledged shares back to BCM. On February 2, 2005, the Defendants in this case filed a Motion to Dismiss or in the Alternative to Stay Action Pending the Resolution of Prior Proceedings in a sister federal court based upon dependency of an adversary proceeding in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division (Plano, Texas), styled American Realty Trust, Inc. v. Sunset Management LLC, Adversary Proceeding No. 03-4256 (E.D. Texas), which is described in the following paragraphs as the Texas Litigation. No hearing has been held or Order issued by the Court on such Motion through March 30, 2005.
The current Sunset complaint is the fifth in a continuing series of actions involving Sunset, certain subsidiaries of ARI, and ARI resulting from a loan in September 2001 to BCM and three subsidiaries of ARI in the original amount of $30 million ($19.5 million of which bore interest at 24.0% per annum, while the remaining $10.5 million of which bore interest at 20.0% per annum). In September 2002, $15 million in principal was repaid leaving a $15 million balance, which Sunset orally agreed to extend the maturity date and accept substitute collateral, an arrangement which Sunset did not honor, resulting in original litigation filed in Texas state court during October 2002 styled American Realty Trust, Inc. ART Williamsburg, Inc., Basic Capital Management, Inc. and EQK Holdings, Inc. v Sunset Management, LLC, et al., Cause No. 02-09433-I in the 162nd Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas (the Texas Litigation). The Texas Litigation alleged breach of contract, misrepresentation, breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing and slander of title by Sunset and sought certain declaratory relief against Sunset, as well as a temporary and permanent anti-suit injunction against Sunset.
During January 2003, without notice to the plaintiffs in the Texas Litigation, Sunset instituted an action in federal district court in Las Vegas, Nevada against Commonwealth Land Title (Commonwealth) seeking disposition of certain shares of Common Stock of TCI held by Commonwealth as Pledge Holder. On January 31, 2003 after a Temporary Restraining Order was issued in the Texas Litigation, Sunset instituted a separate lawsuit in state court in Nevada styled Sunset Management, LLC v. American Realty Trust, Inc., et al., Cause No. A462587 pending in District Court of Clark County, Nevada (the Nevada Litigation). On February 12, 2003, the Nevada state court held a hearing on Sunsets request for emergency relief and denied all Sunsets requested relief and indicated that a stay of the Nevada Litigation may be appropriate, which stay of litigation (including claims against TCI) was granted on May 2, 2003. Notwithstanding the stay of the Nevada Litigation, Sunset has continued to attempt to re-litigate the underlying fact issues already determined in the Texas Litigation and the Nevada Litigation through cross claims and counterclaims in the Texas Litigation and renewed motions for injunctions and

appointment of a receiver in the Nevada Litigation. During September 2003, the Texas Litigation was removed to the bankruptcy court for the Northern District of Texas and subsequently transferred to the Eastern District of Texas. Sunset and the Plaintiffs have filed cross-motions for partial summary judgment in the bankruptcy court, which have been briefed but remain pending at this time. The parties have also filed an agreed motion to withdraw the reference and have the case transferred to a United States District Judge for trial, which has been denied without prejudice pending the resolution of pretrial motions, including the motions for summary judgment.
On February 10, 2004, Sunset filed yet another lawsuit in Nevada styled Sunset Management L.L.C. v. Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc., Case No. CV04-00345 in the Superior Court of Washoe County, seeking to compel a new election of directors, alleging that Sunset was improperly denied voting rights with respect to certain pledged shares at the 2003 stockholders meeting of TCI. TCI responded to that action by informing the Nevada Court that the issue of the validity and effectiveness of proxies purportedly held by Sunset in connection with the loan was already pending before the bankruptcy court. On May 12, 2004, the Nevada District Court denied Sunsets motion to compel an election of corporate directors because of the dispute pending in the Texas bankruptcy court concerning the status of the loan. Subsequently, the Nevada Court denied two motions for reconsideration filed by Sunset. Sunset is currently appealing the rulings of the Washoe District Court.
Security Loans. In September 2003, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $12.5 million from a financial institution. The loan bears interest at 12.0% over the 30-day LIBOR rate, currently 14.8%, requires monthly payments of interest only and matured in September 2004. The loan is secured by 1,656,537 shares of TCI common stock held by ARI. In September 2004, the maturity date was extended to December 2004.

Accordingly, this loan has been reclassified from Margin borrowings to Notes and interest payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In October 2001, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $1.0 million from a financial institution. The loan bore interest at 1.0% over the prime rate, required monthly payments of interest only, and matured in October 2003. The loan was secured by 250,000 shares of ARI Common Stock held by BCM.

Principal and accrued interest were due at maturity. The loan was secured by 825,666 shares of TCI common stock held by ARI. In October 2003, the earnest money was returned to ARI.

In December 2003, ARI sold a tract of Marine Creek land to a subsidiary of United Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF) for $1.5 million, receiving cash and a note receivable. This sale was not recognized as a sale at that time because UHF is a related party and ARI has continuing involvement and control. In February 2004, Marine Creek was refinanced by UHF, which paid in full ARIs note payable on the land. ARI recorded the sale of the land and received a note receivable of $270,000, which was the difference between the sales price and the amount of ARIs note payable. The note bears interest at 6.0%, requires quarterly payments from available surplus cash and matures in December 2007. See Note 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.
In March 2001, ARI funded $13.6 million of a $15.0 million unsecured line of credit to One Realco. A wholly-owned subsidiary of One Realco owns approximately 2.1% of the outstanding shares of ARIs Common Stock. The line of credit bore interest at 12.0% per annum. All principal and interest were due at maturity in February 2002. The line of credit is guaranteed by BCM. In June 2001, $810,000 in principal and interest was collected.

All principal and interest are due at maturity. Ronald E. Kimbrough, Acting Principal Executive Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of ARI until May 31, 2004, was a 10.0% shareholder of One Realco until July 31, 2004. Mr. Kimbrough did not participate in the day-to-day operations or management of One Realco.
In March 2004, ARI obtained financing of $11.5 million on a hotel property. The proceeds of $11.0 million were received by an affiliate, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable. In December 2004, the proceeds were paid to ARI.

At that time, the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado was not recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. ARI recorded the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado in May 2004, due to payment received for the Cliffs of El Dorado note receivable.

In July 2004, ARI obtained a loan of $3.2 million secured by a contract for sale of the Waters Edge III Apartments. The proceeds of $3.2 million were received by an affiliate, increasing ARIs affiliate receivable.
In August 2003, ARI sold three Chicago hotels to a related party for $13.5 million, including the assumption of debt. Due to the sale to a related party to ARI and ARI having continued involvement and control of this entity, this transaction was not recorded as a sale. In September 2004, ARI purchased the three Chicago hotels from the related party for assumption of debt and cancellation of the seller notes.
In September 2004, ARI sold 10.0 acres of land to an affiliate for a purchase price of $720,000 for a note receivable. Due to no cash received and common control, ARI has elected to continue consolidating this tract of land until the requirements for a sale have been met. No sale has been recognized and no note receivable has been recorded.
In October 1999, ARI funded a $4.7 million loan to Realty Advisors. The loan, to provide funds for acquisitions or working capital needs, was secured by all of the outstanding shares of common stock of American Reserve Life Insurance Company. The loan bore interest at 10.25% per annum, and matured in November 2001. In January 2000, $100,000 was collected. In November 2001, the maturity date was extended to November 2004. The collateral was changed to a pledge of 850,000 shares of ARI Common Stock owned by BCM. The interest rate was changed to 2.0% over the prime rate, currently 7.75% per annum, and the accrued but unpaid interest of $1.0 million was added to the principal. The new principal balance is $5.6 million. In September 2003, $673,000 in accrued interest was collected. In August 2004, $342,000 in accrued interest was collected. In November 2004, the maturity date was extended to November 2006. All principal and accrued interest are due at maturity.

On June 2, 2003, ARI exchanged all of its 674,971 IORI shares with BCM, receiving 650,000 TCI shares from BCM. In addition, BCM executed a promissory note in favor of ARI in the amount of $526,000 (see NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE). On June 30, 2003, ARI sold a participating interest in $5.8 million of its $15.5 million line of credit receivable from One Realco to BCM, receiving 314,141 TCI shares from BCM. In December 2003, ARI purchased 204,633 TCI shares in transactions with related parties for a total of $1.4 million.

debt and is one of the guarantors of $7.5 million in new debt obtained by Gruppa. Due to the debt guarantees and ARIs continuing ownership interest in MRI, management has determined that this should be accounted for as a financing transaction. In September 2003, ARI sold the note to Syntek West for $2.3 million, plus accrued but unpaid interest, to reduce affiliate debt.
In July 2003, ARI paid $3.1 million to BCM for a pro-rata portion of prior years legal fees incurred by Gene Phillips. Mr. Phillips is a related party and advisor to ARI.

In October 2003, ARI purchased the Travelers land from IORI for $25.0 million, paying $1.9 million in cash and giving a wrap note payable to IORI for $22.8 million. The note bears interest at 5.49% per annum, requires monthly payments sufficient to pay the installments due on the underlying debt and matures in October 2006. The principal is due at maturity.
In November 2003, ARI sold its Scout land parcel for $2.8 million, receiving $485,000 in cash after paying closing costs and providing purchase money financing of $2.1 million. The note bore interest at 6.25% per annum, required monthly payments of accrued interest beginning in December 2003 and matured in November 2006.

Richard Humphrey, who is employed by Regis Realty I, LLC, an affiliate, is President of UHF. Due to UHF being considered a related party to ARI and ARI having continued involvement and control of these entities, these transactions have not been recorded as sales. Instead, these transactions will be accounted for on the deposit method, and the properties and corresponding debt will continue to be consolidated by ARI. All of these transactions were approved by ARIs Board of Directors. Mr. Stokely abstained from voting on all of these transactions. The loans on Limestone Canyon apartments and Limestone at Vista Ridge apartments were approved by their prospective lenders for transfer to the purchasing entities. ARI has guaranteed the loans on both of these transfers. Also, Marine Creek land and the Cliffs of El Dorado apartments were recognized as sales during 2004. See NOTE 2. REAL ESTATE. Management is currently seeking lender approval on the transfer of the notes associated with the Tivoli apartments and Sendero Ridge apartments.

In January 2002, IORI purchased 100% of the outstanding common shares of Rosedale Corporation (Rosedale), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARI, for $5.1 million. The purchase price was determined based upon the market value of the property exchanged, using a market rate multiple of net operating income. Rosedale owned the Rosedale Towers Office Building. ARI guaranteed that the asset would produce at least a 12.0% annual return on the purchase price for a period of three years from the purchase date. If the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return, ARI would pay IORI any shortfall. In addition, if the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return for a calendar year, IORI could require ARI to repurchase the shares of Rosedale for the purchase price. The business purpose of the transaction was for IORI to make an equity investment in Rosedale, anticipating a profitable return, and for ARI to receive cash for its equity investment. Management classified this related party transaction as a note payable to IORI. After IORI sold the Rosedale Towers Office Building to an unrelated buyer in December 2002, ARI owed $2.1 million to IORI for remaining principal and 12.0% return. In April 2003, ARI repaid $2.0 million in principal and accrued interest. In August 2003, ARI repaid the remaining principal and accrued interest.
In April 2002, TCI purchased all of the general and limited partnership interests in Garden Confederate Point, L.P. (Confederate Point) from ARI for $1.9 million.

ARI guaranteed that the asset would produce at least a 12.0% annual return on the purchase price for a period of three years from the purchase date. If the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return, ARI would pay TCI any shortfall. In addition, if the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return for a calendar year, TCI could require ARI to repurchase the partnership interests in Confederate Point for the purchase price. The business purpose of this transaction was for TCI to make an equity investment in Confederate Point, anticipating a profitable return, and to reduce ARIs affiliate debt. Management classified this related party transaction as a note payable to TCI. In November 2003, the property was sold to an unrelated buyer. ARI repaid the $2.0 million in principal and accrued interest.
In April 2002, TCI purchased 100% of the common shares of ART One Hickory Corporation (One Hickory), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARI, for $4.5 million. The purchase price was determined based upon the market value of the property using a market rate multiple of net operating income. One Hickory owned the One Hickory Centre office building (One Hickory Centre.) ARI guaranteed that the asset would produce at least a 12.0% annual return on the purchase price for a period of three years from the purchase date. If the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return, ARI would pay TCI any shortfall. In addition, if the asset failed to produce the 12.0% return for a calendar year, TCI could require ARI to repurchase the shares of One Hickory for the purchase price. The business purpose of this transaction was for TCI to make an equity investment in One Hickory, anticipating a profitable return, and to reduce ARIs affiliate debt. Management classified this related party transaction as a note payable. In October 2003, TCI sold One Hickory Centre to IORI for $12.2 million, providing purchase money wraparound financing of $12.0 million. Also in October 2003, IORI sold One Hickory Centre to ARI for $12.2 million, providing purchase money wraparound financing of $12.0 million. These additional transactions discharged the 2002 financing from TCI.

ARIs receivable from BCM was reduced by $1.6 million, and no cash was paid by ARI. The business purpose of the transaction was to reduce the affiliate payable owed by BCM to ARI.

NOTE 13. | ADVISORY AGREEMENT |
Although the Board of Directors is directly responsible for managing the affairs of ARI and for setting the policies, which guide it, the day-to-day operations of ARI are performed by Prime, a contractual advisor under the supervision of the Board. The duties of the advisor include, among other things, locating, investigating, evaluating and recommending real estate and mortgage loan investment and sales opportunities as well as financing and refinancing sources. Prime, as advisor, also serves as a consultant in connection with the preparation of ARIs business plan and investment policy decisions made by the Board.
Prime, an affiliate, has been providing advisory services to ARI since October 1, 2003. Prime is indirectly owned by Gene E. Phillips and a trust for the children of Gene E. Phillips. Mr. Phillips is not an officer or director of Prime, but serves as a representative of the trust, is involved in daily consultation with the officers of Prime, and has significant influence over the conduct of Primes business, including the rendering of advisory services and the making of investment decisions for itself and for ARI.
The Advisory Agreement provides that Prime shall receive base compensation at the rate of 0.0625% per month (0.75% on an annualized basis) of ARIs Average Invested Assets.
In addition to base compensation, the Advisory Agreement provides that Prime, or an affiliate of Prime, receive an acquisition fee for locating, leasing or purchasing real estate for ARIs benefit; a disposition fee for the sale of each equity investment in real estate; a loan arrangement fee; an incentive fee equal to 10.0% of net income for the year in excess of a 10.0% return on stockholders equity, and 10.0% of the excess of net capital gains over net capital losses, if any; and a mortgage placement fee, on mortgage loans originated or purchased.
The Advisory Agreement further provides that Prime shall bear the cost of certain expenses of its employees not directly identifiable to ARIs assets, liabilities, operations, business or financial affairs, and miscellaneous administrative expenses relating to the performance of its duties under the Advisory Agreement.
If and to the extent that Prime or any director, officer, partner or employee of Prime, shall be requested to render services to ARI other than those required to be rendered by Prime under the Advisory Agreement, such additional services, if performed, will be compensated separately on terms agreed upon between each party from time-to-time.
The Advisory Agreement automatically renews from year to year unless terminated in accordance with its terms. Management believes that the terms of the Advisory Agreement are at least as fair as could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

ARI has prior tax net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards of approximately $123 million expiring through the year 2023.
ARI had a loss for federal income tax purposes after the use of net operating loss carryforwards in 2002 and losses for federal income tax purposes for 2003; therefore, it recorded no provision for income taxes. ARIs tax basis in its net assets differs from the amount at which its net assets are reported for financial statement purposes, principally due to the accounting for gains and losses on property sales, the difference in the allowance for estimated losses, depreciation on owned properties, and investments in equity method real estate entities. At December 31, 2003, ARIs tax basis in its net assets was exceeded by their basis for financial statement purposes by $61.6 million. This amount is more than offset by notes payable and deferred revenue, which have a financial statement basis that exceeds their tax basis by $134.8 million. As a result, aggregate future income for income

tax purposes will be less than such amount for financial statement purposes by approximately $73.2 million. Certain of the net operating and capital loss carryforwards may be subject to limitation under the current tax laws.
At December 31, 2003, ARI had a net deferred tax asset of $76.9 million due to tax deductions available to it in future years. However, as management cannot determine that it is more likely than not that ARI will realize the benefit of the deferred tax asset, a 100% valuation allowance has been established.
TCI had net income for federal income tax purposes before the application of operating loss carryforwards in 2003 and 2002; therefore, TCI recorded no provision for income taxes. TCIs tax basis in its net assets differs from the amount at which its net assets are reported for financial statement purposes, principally due to the accounting for gains and losses on property sales, depreciation on owned properties and investments in joint venture partnerships. At December 31, 2003, TCIs tax basis in its net assets was exceeded by their net basis for financial statement purposes by approximately $87.4 million and TCIs tax basis in its net liabilities was exceeded by their net basis for financial statement purposes by approximately $91.9 million. As a result, aggregate future income for income tax purposes will be less than such amount for financial statement purposes by approximately $4.5 million. TCIs state income tax expense is included in general and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Total facilities and vehicle rent expense relating to these leases was $2.3 million in 2004, $2.5 million in 2003, and $2.5 million in 2002.
NOTE 18. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Significant differences among the accounting policies of the operating segments as compared to the Consolidated Financial Statements principally involve the calculation and allocation of administrative expenses. Management evaluates the performance of each of the operating segments and allocates resources to them based on their net operating income and cash flow. Items of income that are not reflected in the segments are equity in loss of investees, gain on settlement of debt, gain on condemnation award, loss on sale of investments in equity investees, gain on foreign current transactions, equity in gain on sale of real estate by equity investees and other income which totaled $19.4 million in 2004, $11.7 million in 2003, and $8.3 million in 2002. Expenses that are not reflected in the segments are general and administrative expenses, minority interest, provision for asset impairment, provision for loan losses, advisory fees, net income fees, litigation settlement expenses, write-down of assets held for sale, loss on foreign currency transactions and discontinued operations, which totaled $57.5 million in 2004, $63.5 million in 2003, and $32.5 million in 2002. Excluded from operating segment assets are assets of $114.1 million in 2004, $94.8 million in 2003, and $141.2 million in 2002 which are not identifiable with an operating segment. There are no intersegment revenues and expenses and ARI conducted all of its business within the United States, with the exception of Hotel Sofia (Bulgaria), which began operations in 2001 and was sold in March 2003; RAK (South Korea), which ARI acquired in 2002 and sold in June 2003; and Hotel Akademia (Poland), which began operations in 2002. See NOTE 2. REAL ESTATE and NOTE 3. NOTES AND INTEREST RECEIVABLE.

NOTE 19. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Effective January 1, 2002, ARI adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which established a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including discontinued operations. This statement requires that the operations related to properties that have been sold or properties that are intended to be sold be presented as discontinued operations in the statement of operations for all periods presented, and properties intended to be sold are to be designated as held-for-sale on the balance sheet.

Quarterly results presented differ from those previously reported in ARIs Form 10-Q due to the reclassification of the operations of properties sold or held for sale to discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144.
NOTE 21. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
During the first quarter of 2002, ARI entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a bank. This agreement contained a notional amount of $12.8 million and required ARI to pay the bank a fixed rate of 4.3%, and required the bank to pay to ARI based on the 30-day LIBOR rate. This agreement was entered into in order to effectively fix the rate on ARIs debt associated with the Limestone Canyon property. In December 2003, ARI sold this property to UHF, a related party. The swap agreement expired on December 9, 2004.
ARI did not designate the interest rate swap agreement as a hedge, as defined within Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and as such, changes in the fair value of the swap agreement were recognized in earnings during the period of change and reflected in the statement of operations as interest expense.
Amounts paid or received under the swap agreement were settled monthly and were reflected as a reduction in the liability when paid. Interest expense for 2003 was decreased by $191,000, and interest expense for 2002

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
was increased by $912,000, representing both amounts paid to the bank under the agreement and changes in the fair value of the related liability.
NOTE 22. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, AND LIQUIDITY
Liquidity. Although management anticipated that ARI would generate excess cash from operations in 2004, such excess cash did not materialize and, therefore, was not sufficient to discharge all of ARIs debt obligations as they became due. ARI relied on additional borrowings, and sales of land and income producing properties to meet its cash requirements. In 2005, ARI will rely on aggressive land sales, selected income producing property sales and, to the extent necessary, additional borrowings to meet its cash requirements.
Partnership Buyouts. ARI is the limited partner in 11 partnerships currently constructing residential properties. As permitted in the respective partnership agreements, ARI intends to purchase the interests of the general and any other limited partners in these partnerships subsequent to the completion of these projects. The amounts paid to buyout the nonaffiliated partners are limited to development fees earned by the nonaffiliated partners, and are set forth in the respective partnership agreements. The total amount of the expected buyouts as of December 31, 2004 is approximately $2.2 million.
Commitments. During 2002, MRI, then a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARI, sold two restaurants to a corporation owned in part by an officer of MRI. In conjunction with the sale of these restaurants, MRI guaranteed the bank debt incurred by the related party. The guaranty applies to all current debt and to all future debt of the related party until such time as the guaranty is terminated by MRI. The amount of the debt outstanding that is subject to the guaranty is $953,000 at December 31, 2004. In July 2003, ARI sold its interest in MRI to Gruppa for $18.5 million, receiving $7.4 million in cash after debt assumption and providing purchase money financing of $2.3 million (see NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE). ARI owns 20.0% of Gruppa, thereby retaining a 20.0% interest in MRI. ARI remains as the guarantor of $8.7 million of assumed debt and is one of the guarantors of $7.5 million in new debt obtained by Gruppa. Due to the debt guarantees and ARIs continuing ownership interest in MRI, management has determined that this should be accounted for as a financing transaction. In September 2003, ARI sold the note to Syntek West for $2.3 million, plus accrued but unpaid interest, to reduce affiliate debt.
Litigation. In August 2002, ARI obtained a favorable jury verdict in the legal action entitled American Realty Trust v. Matisse Partners, L.L.C. (Matisse). However, the judge set aside the jury verdict and imposed a judgment against ARI in excess of $6.0 million, including interest. The judgment was appealed, and, in the opinion of ARIs management and legal counsel, there was a reasonable probability that the adverse judgment will be set aside and the jury verdict reinstated. Therefore, ARI did not recognize any expense nor establish any reserve for this judgment. In November 2002, ARI posted a $6.0 million supersedes bond. In July 2003, ARI obtained a letter of credit, which was substituted for the $6.0 million bond. The $6.0 million cash was returned to ARI. In April 2003, an additional judgment was issued against ARI for $1.4 million in legal fees. ARI also appealed this judgment and posted a $1.4 million bond in May 2003. ARI did not recognize any expense nor establish any reserve for this additional judgment. In December 2003, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled in favor of ARI, with respect to the damages and the legal fees awarded by the judge, and $1.1 million of the $1.4 million bond was returned to ARI.
On August 10, 2004, American Realty Investors, Inc., Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc. instituted an action in Texas State District Court as Cause No. 2004-60231- 393 styled American Realty Investors, Inc., Transcontinental Realty Investors, Inc. and Income Opportunity Realty Investors, Inc., Plaintiffs v.

Realty, Inc., Metra Capital LLC, Innovo Group, Inc., Joseph Mizrachi, Simon Mizrachi, Hubert Guez, Third Millennium Partners LLC, Third Millennium Partners, Inc., Third Millennium Group, LLC and Sunridge Management Group, Inc., Defendants. Plaintiffs complaint alleges that Joseph Mizrachi, a former director of ARI and others, offered a plan to the Plaintiffs to create one or more joint venture arrangements with one or more of the Plaintiffs to pursue alternative forms of financing or refinancing portions of Plaintiffs real estate portfolios, which entailed the creation of 22 separate limited partnerships to acquire 28 separate apartment complexes in three states (Texas, Florida and Louisiana), the general partners of which are affiliates of, or controlled by, Joseph Mizrachi. Plaintiffs complaint alleges that the overall transaction required the establishment of a sinking fund by the Defendants and the 22 limited partnerships as a trust for the benefit of certain preferred shareholders of Innovo Group, Inc. and the payment of certain proceeds to the Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs assert that payments have not been made pursuant to the agreement of the parties. Plaintiffs allege that Defendants conduct constituted a common business enterprise alleges breach of contract and derivative claims on behalf of Innovo Group, Inc. against Joseph Mizrachi and others and requests declaratory relief involving the Plaintiffs rights in the partnerships, an accounting of proceeds, and the creation of a constructive trust. Plaintiffs complaint also alleges that Joseph Mizrachi engaged in fraud, negligent misrepresentation and/or breach of fiduciary duty and seeks unspecified damages, attorneys fees, a constructive trust be established, and other relief.
In September 2001, ARI obtained a security loan in the amount of $20.0 million from Sunset Management, LLC (Sunset). ARI received net cash of $16.1 million after the payment of various closing costs and $3.4 million repayment of principal and accrued interest on an existing loan with the same lender. Of the total loan amount, $19.5 million bears interest at 24.0% per annum, while the remaining $500,000 bears interest at 20.0% per annum. The loan is secured by 3,672,305 shares of TCI common stock held by BCM and wholly-owned subsidiaries of ARI. The loan required monthly payments of interest only and matured in September 2002. In September 2002, $15.0 million in principal was repaid. Sunset orally agreed in September 2002 to extend the maturity date of the loan and accept substitute collateral for the shares of TCI common stock after the $15.0 million pay down. Sunset did not honor the agreement, which resulted in litigation filed in Texas state court during October 2002, styled American Realty Trust, Inc., ART Williamsburg, Inc., Basic Capital Management, Inc. and EQK Holdings, Inc. v. Sunset Management, LLC, et al., Cause No. 02-09433-I in the 162nd Judicial Court of Dallas County, Texas. See NOTE 8. MARGIN BORROWINGS.
Other Litigation. ARI is also involved in various other lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is of the opinion that the outcome of these lawsuits will have no material impact on ARIs financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
In January 2001, ARI exercised its option under the loan documents to extend the maturity date of three loans with a principal balance of $30.0 million secured by three office buildings in New Orleans, Louisiana. The lender had disputed ARIs right to extend the loans. This dispute was the subject of litigation pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. On September 11, 2003, ARI settled with the lender. On September 18, 2003, ARI paid $5.0 million to lender, which gave ARI the right to retire the remaining debt outstanding on the three office buildings on or before December 10, 2003 for $20.0 million. ARI paid the remaining $20.0 million on December 10, 2003, which resulted in a $4.4 million gain on settlement of debt. BCM also agreed to enter into a time sharing agreement with the lender for use of BCMs airplane for 200 hours. BCM requested that ARI reimburse BCM for these costs at the rate of $2,750 per hour, which was approved by ARIs Board of Directors. ARI has accrued $550,000 in general and administrative expenses for this reimbursement to BCM.

ITEM 9. | CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE |
Effective June 1, 2004, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of ARI engaged the Plano, Texas firm of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. as the independent accountants to audit ARIs financial statements. During the Registrants two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period, ARI did not consult with Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. or any of its members about the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction or any other matter. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of TCI consisting of Ted R. Munselle (Chairman), Martin L. White and Sharon Hunt.
The engagement effective June 1, 2004 of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. as the new independent accountant for ARI necessarily results in the termination or dismissal of the principal accountant which audited ARIs financial statements for the past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, BDO Seidman, LLP. BDO Seidman, LLPs anticipated fee proposal estimate to ARI for the balance of 2004 after the first quarter ended was expected to be greater than the fee proposal of Farmer, Fuqua & Huff, P.C. for the same work. During the Registrants two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through June 1, 2004, there were no disagreements between the Registrant and BDO Seidman, LLP concerning any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which disagreements, if not resolved to BDO Seidman, LLPs satisfaction would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report; there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
BDO Seidman, LLPs reports dated April 11, 2003 and March 30, 2004 on ARIs financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Each report did contain an emphasis paragraph highlighting that management has indicated its intent to sell income-producing properties and refinance or extend debt secured by real estate to meets its liquidity needs.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS | AND PROCEDURES |
As required by rule 13a-15(b), ARIs management, including the Acting Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of ARIs disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that ARIs disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. As required by rule 13a-15(d), ARIs management, including the Acting Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, also conducted an evaluation of ARIs internal controls over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, ARIs internal control over financial reporting. Based on the evaluation, there has been no such change during the fourth fiscal quarter.
During 2004, ARI discovered an error in the depreciation calculation for a commercial property purchased in 2003. The correction of the error resulted in a restatement for 2003 that increased net income by $1.2 million, increased total assets by $0.7 million, and decreased minority interest by $0.5 million (from amounts originally reported).
ARI intends to continually review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures over time, and to correct any deficiencies that it may discover in the future. The goal is to ensure that management has timely access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning ARIs business.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.

PART III
ITEM 10. | DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND ADVISOR OF THE REGISTRANT |
Directors
The affairs of American Realty Investors, Inc. (ARI) are managed by a Board of Directors. The Directors are elected at the annual meeting of stockholders or are appointed by the incumbent Board and serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until a successor has been elected or appointed.
It is the Boards objective that a majority of the Board consists of independent directors. For a Director to be considered independent, the Board must determine that the Director does not have any direct or indirect material relationship with ARI. The Board has established guidelines to assist it in determining director independence which conform to, or are more exacting than, the independence requirements in the New York Stock Exchange listing rules. The independence guidelines are set forth in ARIs Corporate Governance Guidelines. The text of this document has been posted on ARIs Internet website at http://www.amrealtytrust.com and is available in print to any shareholder who requests it. In addition to applying these guidelines, the Board will consider all relevant facts and circumstances in making an independence determination.
ARI has adopted a code of conduct that applies to all Directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. Stockholders may find our code of conduct on our website by going to our website address at http://www.amrealtytrust.com. We will post any amendments to the code of conduct, as well as any waivers that are required to be disclosed by the rules of the SEC or the New York Stock Exchange on our website.
Our Board of Directors has adopted charters for our Audit, Compensation and Governance and Nominating Committees of the Board of Directors. Stockholders may find these documents on our website by going to the website address at http://www.amrealtytrust.com. You may also obtain a printed copy of the materials referred to by contacting us at the following address:

Dallas, Texas 75234
Telephone: 469-522-4200
All members of the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must be independent directors. Members of the Audit Committee must also satisfy additional independence requirements, which provide (i) that they may not accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or compensatory fee from ARI or any of its subsidiaries other than their Directors compensation (other than in their capacity as a member of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors, or any other committee of the Board), and (ii) no member of the Audit Committee may be an affiliated person of ARI or any of its subsidiaries, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The current Directors of ARI are listed below, together with their ages, terms of service, all positions and offices with ARI, its former advisor (BCM), or current advisor (Prime), which took over as contractual advisor for BCM on July 1, 2003, their principal occupations, business experience and directorships with other companies during the last five years or more. The designation Affiliated, when used below with respect to a Director, means that the Director is an officer, director or employee of BCM, Prime or an officer of ARI or an officer or director of an affiliate of ARI. The designation Independent, when used below with respect to a Director, means that the Director is neither an officer of ARI nor a director, officer or employee of BCM or Prime (but may be a director of ARI), although ARI may have certain business or professional relationships with such Director as discussed in ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONSCertain Business Relationships.

During February 2004, the Board adopted its Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Guidelines adopted by the Board meet or exceed the new listing standards adopted during the year by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Pursuant to the Guidelines, the Board undertook its annual review of director independence, and during this review, the Board considered transactions and relationships between each director or any member of his or her immediate family and ARI and its subsidiaries and affiliates, including those reported under Certain Relationships and Related Transactions below. The Board also examined transactions and relationships between directors or their affiliates and members of ARIs senior management or their affiliates. As provided in the Guidelines, the purpose of such review was to determine whether such relationships or transactions were inconsistent with the determination that the director is independent.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Under the securities laws of the United States, ARIs Directors, executive officers, and any persons holding more than 10 percent of ARIs shares of Common Stock are required to report their ownership and any changes in that ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). Specific due dates for these reports have been established and ARI is required to report any failure to file by these dates during 2003. All of these filing requirements were satisfied by ARIs Directors and executive officers and 10 percent holders. In making these statements, ARI has relied on the written representations of its incumbent Directors and executive officers and its 10 percent holders and copies of the reports that they have filed with the Commission.
The Advisor
Prior to July 1, 2003, BCM served as advisor to ARI. The current advisor is Prime. See NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESOrganization and Business. The Advisory Agreement described in this section contains the same terms as the prior Advisory Agreement with BCM.

Table of Contents
Index to Financial Statements
Although the Board of Directors is directly responsible for managing the affairs of ARI and for setting the policies, which guide it, the day-to-day operations of ARI are performed by Prime, a contractual advisor under the supervision of the Board. The duties of the advisor include, among other things, locating, investigating, evaluating and recommending real estate and mortgage loan investment and sales opportunities as well as financing and refinancing sources. Prime also serves as consultant in connection with ARIs business plan and investment policy decisions made by the Board.
Prime, an affiliate, serves as advisor to ARI. Prime is indirectly owned by Gene E. Phillips (20.0%) and by a trust for the children of Gene E. Phillips (80.0%). Mr. Phillips is not an officer or director of Prime, but serves as a representative of the trust, is involved in daily consultation with the officers of Prime and has significant influence over the conduct of Primes business, including the rendering of advisory services and the making of investment decisions for itself and ARI. As of March 24, 2005, PIAMI owned 1,437,208 shares of ARIs Common Stock, approximately 12.6% of the shares then outstanding.
The Advisory Agreement provides for the advisor to receive monthly base compensation at the rate of 0.0625% per month (0.75% on an annualized basis) of Average Invested Assets.
In addition to base compensation, Prime, an affiliate of Prime, or a related party receives the following forms of additional compensation:
(1) an acquisition fee for locating, leasing or purchasing real estate for ARI in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the amount of compensation customarily charged in similar arms-length transactions or (2) up to 6.0% of the costs of acquisition, inclusive of commissions, if any, paid to non-affiliated brokers;
(2) a disposition fee for the sale of each equity investment in real estate in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the amount of compensation customarily charged in similar arms-length transactions or (2) 3.0% of the sales price of each property, exclusive of fees, if any, paid to non-affiliated brokers;
(3) a loan arrangement fee in an amount equal to 1.0% of the principal amount of any loan made to ARI arranged by Prime;
(4) an incentive fee equal to 10.0% of net income for the year in excess of a 10.0% return on stockholders equity, and 10.0% of the excess of net capital gains over net capital losses, if any, realized from sales of assets;
(5) a mortgage placement fee, on mortgage loans originated or purchased, equal to 50.0%, measured on a cumulative basis, of the total amount of mortgage origination and placement fees on mortgage loans advanced by ARI for the fiscal year.
The ARI Advisory Agreement further provides that Prime shall bear the cost of certain expenses of its employees, excluding fees paid to ARIs Directors; rent and other office expenses of both Prime and ARI (unless ARI maintains office space separate from that of Prime); costs not directly identifiable to ARIs assets, liabilities, operations, business or financial affairs; and miscellaneous administrative expenses relating to the performance by Prime of its duties under the Advisory Agreement.
The terms of TCIs Advisory Agreement with Prime are not identical to those of TCIs Advisory Agreement. The provisions of TCIs Advisory Agreement are:
(1) | The TCI Advisory Agreement provides for Prime to be responsible for the day-to-day operations of TCI and to receive an advisory fee comprised of a gross asset fee of .0625% per month (.75% per annum) of the average of the gross asset value (total assets less allowance for amortization, depreciation or depletion and valuation reserves) and an annual net income fee equal to 7.5% of TCIs net income. |

during such fiscal year exceeds the sum of: (1) the cost of each such property as originally recorded in TCIs books for tax purposes (without deduction for depreciation, amortization or reserve for losses), (2) capital improvements made to such assets during the period owned, and (3) all closing costs, (including real estate commissions) incurred in the sale of such real estate; provided, however, no incentive fee shall be paid unless (a) such real estate sold in such fiscal year, in the aggregate, has produced an 8.0% simple annual return on the net investment including capital improvements, calculated over the holding period before depreciation and inclusive of operating income and sales consideration and (b) the aggregate net operating income from all real estate owned for each of the prior and current fiscal years shall be at least 5.0% higher in the current fiscal year than in the prior fiscal year. |
(3) | Pursuant to the TCI Advisory Agreement, Prime, or an affiliate of Prime, is to receive an acquisition commission for supervising the acquisition, purchase or long-term lease of real estate equal to the lesser of (1) up to 1.0% of the cost of acquisition, inclusive of commissions, if any, paid to nonaffiliated brokers or (2) the compensation customarily charged in arms-length transactions by others rendering similar property acquisition services as an ongoing public activity in the same geographical location and for comparable property, provided that the aggregate purchase price of each property (including acquisition fees and real estate brokerage commissions) may not exceed such propertys appraised value at acquisition. |
(4) | The TCI Advisory Agreement requires Prime or any affiliate of Prime to pay to TCI, one-half of any compensation received from third parties with respect to the origination, placement or brokerage of any loan made by TCI; provided, however, that the compensation retained by Prime or any affiliate of Prime shall not exceed the lesser of (1) 2.0% of the amount of the loan commitment or (2) a loan brokerage and commitment fee which is reasonable and fair under the circumstances. |
(5) | The TCI Advisory Agreement also provides that Prime or an affiliate of Prime is to receive a mortgage or loan acquisition fee with respect to the acquisition or purchase of any existing mortgage loan by TCI equal to the lesser of (1) 1.0% of the amount of the loan purchased or (2) a brokerage or commitment fee which is reasonable and fair under the circumstances. Such fee will not be paid in connection with the origination or funding of any mortgage loan by TCI. |
(6) | Under the TCI Advisory Agreement, Prime or an affiliate of Prime also is to receive a mortgage brokerage and equity refinancing fee for obtaining loans or refinancing on properties equal to the lesser of (1) 1.0% of the amount of the loan or the amount refinanced or (2) a brokerage or refinancing fee which is reasonable and fair under the circumstances; provided, however, that no such fee shall be paid on loans from Prime or an affiliate of Prime without the approval of TCIs Board of Directors. No fee shall be paid on loan extensions. |
(7) | Under the TCI Advisory Agreement, Prime receives reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by it in the performance of advisory services. |
(8) | Under the TCI Advisory Agreement, all or a portion of the annual advisory fee must be refunded by the Advisor if the Operating Expenses of TCI (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) exceed certain limits specified in the Advisory Agreement based on the book value, net asset value, and net income of TCI during the fiscal year. Prime was required to refund $1.3 million of the 2003 advisory fee under this provision. |
If and to the extent that ARI shall request Prime, or any director, officer, partner or employee of Prime, to render services to ARI other than those required to be rendered by Prime under the Advisory Agreement, such additional services, if performed, will be compensated separately on terms agreed upon between such party and ARI from time-to-time.
The Advisory Agreement automatically renews from year to year unless terminated in accordance with its terms. ARIs management believes that the terms of the Advisory Agreement are at least as fair as could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

Situations may develop in which the interests of ARI are in conflict with those of one or more directors or officers in their individual capacities or of Prime, or of their respective affiliates. In addition to services performed for ARI, as described above, Prime actively provides similar services as agent for, and advisor to, other real estate enterprises, including persons and entities involved in real estate development and financing, including IORI and TCI. The Advisory Agreement provides that Prime may also serve as advisor to other entities.
As advisor, Prime is a fiduciary of ARIs public investors. In determining to which entity a particular investment opportunity will be allocated, Prime will consider the respective investment objectives of each entity and the appropriateness of a particular investment in light of each such entitys existing mortgage note and real estate portfolios and business plan. To the extent any particular investment opportunity is appropriate to more than one such entity, such investment opportunity will be allocated to the entity that has had funds available for investment for the longest period of time, or, if appropriate, the investment may be shared among various entities.

ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS |
Policies with Respect to Certain Activities
Article ELEVENTH of ARIs Articles of Incorporation provides that ARI shall not, directly or indirectly, contract or engage in any transaction with (1) any director, officer or employee of ARI, (2) any director, officer or employee of the advisor, (3) the advisor or (4) any affiliate or associate (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of any of the aforementioned persons, unless (a) the material facts as to the relationship among or financial interest of the relevant individuals or persons and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed to or are known by ARIs Board of Directors or the appropriate

committee thereof and (b) ARIs Board of Directors or committee thereof determines that such contract or transaction is fair to ARI and simultaneously authorizes or ratifies such contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of independent directors of ARI entitled to vote thereon.
Article ELEVENTH defines an Independent Director (for purposes of that Article) as one who is neither an officer or employee of ARI, nor a director, officer or employee of ARIs advisor. This definition predates ARIs director independence guidelines adopted in February 2004.
ARIs policy is to have such contracts or transactions approved or ratified by a majority of the disinterested Directors with full knowledge of the character of such transactions, as being fair and reasonable to the stockholders at the time of such approval or ratification under the circumstances then prevailing. Such Directors also consider the fairness of such transactions to ARI. Management believes that, to date, such transactions have represented the best investments available at the time and they were at least as advantageous to ARI as other investments that could have been obtained.
ARI may enter into future transactions with entities the officers, directors or stockholders of which are also officers, directors or stockholders of ARI, if such transactions would be beneficial to the operations of ARI and consistent with ARIs then-current investment objectives and policies, subject to approval by a majority of disinterested Directors as discussed above.
ARI does not prohibit its officers, directors, stockholders, or related parties from engaging in business activities of the types conducted by ARI.
Certain Business Relationships
Prime, ARIs advisor, is a company for which Messrs. Branigan, Corna, and Lewis serve as executive officers. Prime is a company indirectly owned by Gene E. Phillips and a trust established for the benefit of the children of Gene E. Phillips.
The executive officers of ARI also serve as executive officers of TCI, and Messrs. Branigan and Corna also serve as executive officers of IORI. As such, they owe fiduciary duties to that entity as well as to Prime under applicable law. TCI has the same relationship with Prime, as does ARI.
Effective July 1, 2003, PAMI became the advisor to ARI and TCI. PAMI is owned by Realty Advisors (80.0%) and Syntek West, (20.0%). Syntek West is owned by Gene Phillips. Effective August 18, 2003, PAMI changed its name to PIAMI. On October 1, 2003, Prime, which is 100% owned by PIAMI, replaced PIAMI as the advisor to ARI and TCI.
ARI contracts with affiliates of Prime for property management services. Currently, Triad, an affiliate, and Carmel provide such property management services. The general partner of Triad is BCM. The limited partner of Triad is Highland, a related party. Triad subcontracts the property-level management of 30 of ARIs commercial properties (office buildings, shopping centers, and industrial warehouses) to Regis I, a related party. Regis I also provides real estate brokerage services to ARI and receives brokerage commissions in accordance with the Advisory Agreement. Regis Hotel I, LLC manages ARIs 11 hotels. The sole member of Regis I and Regis Hotel I, LLC is Highland. Carmel is a company previously owned by First Equity Properties, Inc., which is a company affiliated with Prime. On May 1, 2004, Regis I acquired the ownership of Carmel. See ITEM 2. PROPERTIESInvestments in Real Estate Companies and Real Estate Partnerships.
At December 31, 2004, ARI owned approximately 82.2% of TCIs outstanding common stock and approximately 19.7% of IORIs outstanding common stock, through its interest in TCI.

Related Party Transactions
Historically, ARI, TCI, IORI, BCM, and Prime have each engaged in, and may continue to engage in, business transactions, including real estate partnerships, with related parties. Management believes that all of the related party transactions represented the best investments available at the time and were at least as advantageous to ARI as could have been obtained from unrelated parties.
Operating Relationships
In October 2003, ARI entered into a lease with Prime for space at the One Hickory Centre Office Building. The lease was for 59,115 sq. ft. (approximately 59.0% of the building), has a term of three years, and provided for annual base rent of $1.3 million, or $21.50 per sq. ft. Effective May 1, 2004, the lease was amended to 54,404 sq. ft. (approximately 56% of the building), with an annual base rent of $1.2 million, or $21.50 per sq. ft.
ARI received rents of $69,000 from BCM for BCMs lease at Addison Hanger. BCM owns a corporate jet that is housed at the hanger, and ARI has available space at the hanger.
In 2004, ARI paid Prime, its affiliates, and a related party $8.4 million in advisory fees, $1.9 million in net income fees, $1.9 million in loan arrangements, $578,000 in property acquisition fees, $8.4 million in real estate brokerage commissions, $5.6 million in construction supervision fees, and $6.7 million in property and construction management fees and leasing commissions, net of property management fees paid to subcontractors, other than affiliates of Prime. In addition, as provided in the Advisory Agreement, Prime received cost reimbursements of $4.6 million.
Partnership Transactions
BCM has entered into put agreements with certain holders of the Class A limited partner units of Ocean Beach Partners, L.P. The Class A units are convertible into Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock of ARI. The put price of the Series D Preferred Stock is $20.00 per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends.
BCM has entered into put agreements with the holders of the Class A units of ART Palm, L.P. Such Class A units are convertible into Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock of ARI. The put price for the Class A units is $1.00 per unit and the put price for either the Series C Preferred Stock or ARIs Common Stock is 90.0% of the average daily closing price of ARIs Common Stock for the prior 20 trading days. The put agreement calls for ARI to repurchase the outstanding Class A units as follows: December 31, 2005, 875,000 units; and December 31, 2006, 5,938,750 units.
Advances and Loans
From time-to-time, ARI and its affiliates have made advances to each other, which have not had specific repayment terms, do not bear interest, are unsecured, and have been reflected in ARIs financial statements as other assets or other liabilities. At December 31, 2004, after accounting for affiliate purchases and sales, amounts still owed by ARI were $260,000 and $1.2 million to IORI and Regis I, respectively. Also at December 31, 2004, ARI was owed $13.6 million and $1.4 million by Prime and Regis I, respectively.
In January 2004, ARI issued 200,000 shares of Series A 10.0% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock to Prime, ARIs advisor. In February 2004, 50,000 additional shares were issued to Prime. ARIs affiliate receivable was increased by $2.5 million.

ARI sold 39.3 acres of Pioneer Crossing land for $3.9 million, 10.7 acres of Marine Creek land for $1.5 million, the Limestone at Vista Ridge Apartments for $19.0 million, the Cliffs of El Dorado Apartments for $13.4 million, the Limestone Canyon Apartments for $18.0 million, the Sendero Ridge Apartments for $29.4 million, and Tivoli Apartments for $16.1 million. All of the transactions included the assumption of debt and notes receivable to ARI for the remainder of the purchase price. Ted Stokely, Chairman of the Board of ARI, is the General Manager of UHF. Richard Humphrey, who is employed by Regis Realty I, LLC, an affiliate, is President of UHF. Due to UHF being considered a related party to ARI and ARI having continued involvement and control of these entities, these transactions have not been recorded as sales. Instead, these transactions will be accounted for on the deposit method, and the properties and corresponding debt will continue to be consolidated by ARI. All of these transactions were approved by ARIs Board of Directors. Mr. Stokely abstained from voting on all of these transactions. The loans on Limestone Canyon apartments and Limestone at Vista Ridge apartments were approved by their prospective lenders for transfer to the purchasing entities. ARI has guaranteed the loans on both of these transfers. Also, Marine Creek land and the Cliffs of El Dorado apartments were recognized as sales during 2004. See NOTE 2. REAL ESTATE. Management is currently seeking lender approval on the transfer of the notes associated with the Tivoli apartments and Sendero Ridge apartments.
In December 2003, ARI sold a tract of Marine Creek land to a subsidiary of United Housing Foundation, Inc. (UHF) for $1.5 million, receiving cash and a note receivable. This sale was not recognized as a sale at that time because UHF is a related party and ARI has continuing involvement and control. In February 2004, Marine Creek was refinanced by UHF, which paid in full ARIs note payable on the land. ARI recorded the sale of the land and received a note receivable of $270,000, which was the difference between the sales price and the amount of ARIs note payable. The note bears interest at 6.0%, requires quarterly payments from available surplus cash and matures in December 2007. See Note 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.
In May 2004, ARI purchased the Treehouse Apartments from an affiliate, with a net purchase price of $7.5 million after assumption of debt and a note receivable, less cash received of $0.5 million. The note receivable was from the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado Apartments to a related party in 2003. At that time, the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado was not recorded as a sale for accounting purposes. ARI recorded the sale of the Cliffs of El Dorado in May 2004, due to payment received for the Cliffs of El Dorado note receivable.
In September 2004, ARI sold Limestone Canyon II land to a subsidiary of UHF for $720,000 in the form of a seller note receivable. Due to no cash received and common control, ARI has elected to continue consolidating this tract of land until the requirements for a sale have been met. No sale was recognized and no note receivable has been recorded.
In April 2002, ARI and TCI sold 21 apartment properties to partnerships controlled by Metra Capital, LLC (Metra). Innovo Group, Inc. (Innovo) is a limited partner in the partnerships that purchased the properties. Joseph Mizrachi, then a director of ARI, controlled approximately 11.67% of the outstanding common stock of Innovo. Management determined to treat the sales as financing transactions, and ARI and TCI continue to report the assets and the new debt incurred by Metra on their financial statements. The partnership agreements for each of these partnerships state that the Metra Partners, as defined, receive cash flow distributions at least quarterly in an amount sufficient to provide them with a 15.0% cumulative compounded annual rate of return on their invested capital, as well as a cumulative compounded annual amount of 0.50% of the average outstanding balance of the mortgage indebtedness secured by any of these properties. These distributions to the Metra Partners have priority over distributions to any other partners. At December 31, 2004, 16 of the properties remained on ARIs balance sheet, and ARIs other liabilities included $1.4 million owed to the Metra Partners related to cash received by ARI upon the sale of these apartments in April 2002.

All services rendered by the principal auditors are permissible under applicable laws and regulations and were pre-approved by either the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee, as required by law. The fees paid the principal auditors for services as described in the above table fall under the categories listed below:
Audit Fees. These are fees for professional services performed by the principal auditor for the audit of the Companys annual financial statements and review of financial statements included in the Companys 10-Q filings and services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filing or engagements.
Audit-Related Fees. These are fees for assurance and related services performed by the principal auditor that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Companys financial statements. These services include attestations by the principal auditor that are not required by statute or regulation and consulting on financial accounting/reporting standards.
Tax Fees. These are fees for professional services performed by the principal auditor with respect to tax compliance, tax planning, tax consultation, returns preparation and review of returns. The review of tax returns includes the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
All Other Fees. These are fees for other permissible work performed by the principal auditor that do not meet the above category descriptions.
These services are actively monitored (as to both spending level and work content) by the Audit Committee to maintain the appropriate objectivity and independence in the principal auditors core work, which is the audit of the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the SO Act), and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor. The purpose of the provisions of the SO Act and the SEC rules for the Audit Committee role in retaining the independent auditor is two-fold. First, the
131

authority and responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the auditors should be with directors who are independent of management. Second, any non-audit work performed by the auditors should be reviewed and approved by these same independent directors to ensure that any non-audit services performed by the auditor do not impair the independence of the independent auditor. To implement the provisions of the SO Act, the SEC issued rules specifying the types of services that an independent may not provide to its audit client, and governing the Audit Committees administration of the engagement of the independent auditor. As part of this responsibility, the Audit Committee is required to preapprove the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that they do not impair the auditors independence. Accordingly, the Audit Committee has adopted a pre-approval policy of audit and non-audit services (the Policy), which sets forth the procedures and conditions pursuant to which services to be performed by the independent auditor are to be preapproved. Consistent with the SEC rules establishing two different approaches to pre-approving non-prohibited services, the Policy of the Audit Committee covers pre-approval of audit services, audit-related services, international administration tax services, non-U.S. income tax compliance services, pension and benefit plan consulting and compliance services, and U.S. tax compliance and planning. At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Audit Committee will evaluate other known potential engagements of the independent auditor, including the scope of work proposed to be performed and the proposed fees, and the approve or reject each service, taking into account whether services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent auditors independence from management. Typically, in addition to the generally pre-approved services, other services would include due diligence for an acquisition that may or may not have been known at the beginning of the year. The Audit Committee has also delegated to any member of the Audit Committee designated by the Board or the financial expert member of the Audit Committee responsibilities to preapprove services to be performed by the independent auditor not exceeding $25,000 in value or cost per engagement of audit and non-audit services, and such authority may only be exercised when the Audit Committee is not in session.
Except for the fees of $9,120 in 2003 for training, all the fees for 2004 and 2003 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee or were within the pre-approved guidelines for permitted non-audit services and fees established by the Audit Committee, and there were no instances of waiver of approved requirements or guidelines during the same periods.
