Item 2:     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Real Estate
 
The real estate operating loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was approximately $73,000 as compared to a loss of $93,000 for the same period in 2001. Real estate losses continue as the Company incurs carrying costs and improvements required to sell the property.
 
Specialized Health Services
 
Due to the Hospital’s continued losses and its inability to pay interest on its secured $1,022,000 loan on the hospital property for more than one year, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously voted in December 2001 to sell or close this business within the first six months of 2002.
 
The Company currently is seeking an investor to fund marketing and expansion of the health care services or a purchaser for this subsidiary. No assurance can be made that an investor or purchaser will be found.
 
Effective February 1, 2002 the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with a related party who held outstanding notes payable in the amount of $1,022,000, secured by the hospital property in Seattle, Washington. Under terms of the agreement, the Company sold the hospital’s land, building, and property and equipment to the related party for a purchase price in the amount of the principal of the notes and accrued interest of $174,000. Also effective February 1st, 2002, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the related party whereby the company is permitted to lease the hospital facility for 36 months, with an option to repurchase the property from the related party at an amount equal to the original principal indebtedness plus accumulated interest and attorney’s fees.
 
During the quarter ended March 31, 2002, the health care discontinued operations net income was approximately $656,000. The net income reflects a gain of $781,000, which resulted from the reduction of debt in the amount of $1,022,000 and accrued interest of $174,000 less the net book value of assets sold for $415,000. Operating loss for the Hospital for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $125,000 compared to a loss of $32,000 in 2001. These results are not necessarily an indication of the future quarters operating results.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company’s recurring losses from continuing operations led to its decision to discontinue the hospital operations. Difficulties in generating cash flow sufficient to meet its obligations raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Table of Contents
 
Real Estate and Corporate overhead continue to produce losses that the operating business is unable to absorb. The required investments in real estate are currently funded by loans.
 
The Company continues to incur legal expenses and has an obligation in 2002 to contribute to the Chatham Brothers toxic waste cleanup lawsuit.
 
Servicing outstanding debt continues to be a significant burden on the Company’s operations.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1:     Legal Proceedings
 
The Company is named as a defendant in the Chatham Brothers toxic waste cleanup lawsuit. In February 1991, the Company was identified as one of many “Potentially Responsible Parties” (PRPs) in the Chatham Brothers toxic waste cleanup site case, filed by the State of California—Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and involved the Hartley Pen Company previously owned by the Company.
 
On December 31, 1991, the Company and approximately 90 other companies were named in a formal complaint. The Company joined a group of defendants, which were notified and which are referred to as PRPs for the purpose of negotiating with the DTSC and for undertaking remediation of the site. In January of 1998 the final remediation plan was approved by the State and in January of 1999 the PRP’s consented to it, as well as the allocation of costs, and the consent decree was approved by the Court. As of March 31, 2002, the Company had paid over $570,000 into the PRP group and had a cash call contribution payable of $131,000. In addition, the Company carried accrued short-term and long-term liabilities of $78,000 and $1,424,000, respectively.
 
The Company is in dispute with its 1988 licensee over the trademark “Classics Illustrated.” In 1998, the Company terminated its license agreement for breach of contract. The licensee has objected to the termination stating that the Company failed to notify the licensee of a potential problem with the trademark in Greece. A Greek court has ruled against a sublicensee in Greece. The Company believes that the license agreement supports that it adequately notified the licensee but would have to investigate the international trademark involving “Classics Illustrated.” Management believes that there is no probable risk of loss related to this dispute.
