ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain matters disclosed herein may be forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including the facilities
utilization, costs associated with maintaining the operations, liquidity
issues, and other risks. You can identify these statements by such
forward-looking words as "may," "will," "expect," "plan" and similar
words. Actual strategies and results in the future
may differ materially from those management currently expects.
Forward-looking statements represent management's judgment as of the
current date. The Company disclaims, however, any intent or obligation
to update any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q.


RESULTS OF OPERATION

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001

Due to the closing of the Travelodge property in January 2002, room
revenues have declined 7.02% in the three months ended December 31, 2002
relative to the comparable period in 2001. The Holiday Inn Hotel and
Suites room revenues increased 10.91% in the three months ended December
31, 2002 relative to the comparable period in 2001 (not taking in
consideration the room revenue generated by the Travelodge property). The
Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites' average occupancy percentage for the three
months ended December 31, 2002 was 70.55%, an increase of 7.92% relative
to the comparable period in 2001. This increase is due largely in part to
construction work in the Huntington area, and the housing of many of these
construction workers. The 27.34% decrease in food and beverage revenues
in the quarter ended December 31, 2002 relative to the comparable period
in 2001, is relative to the overall decrease in room sales and the closing
of the Travelodge property.

Total cost and expenses have decreased 12.0% primarily due to
interest expense attributed to the refinancing of the Holiday Inn Hotel
and Suites property in January 2002 and the payoff of the loans related to
the Travelodge property sold July 3, 2002. In addition, an overall
decrease in expenses is related to the closing and sale of the Travelodge
property.


SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001

Room Revenues have decreased by 11.95% in the six months ended
December 31, 2002 relative to the comparable period in 2001. Food and
Beverage revenues have decreased by 34.90% in the six months ended
December 31, 2002 relative to the comparable period in 2001. These
differences, as well as the variances in expenses, are due to the
explanations above for the three month period ending December 31, 2002.

- 9 -


LIQUIDITY

The liquidity, as measured by current assets divided by current
liabilities, has decreased from 3.00 at June 30, 2002 to 1.49 at December
31, 2002. This decline is a result of selling the Travelodge property in
July of 2002. On June 30, 2002, this property was being classified as
Property Held for Sale in the current asset section of the balance sheet.
Existing loans with balances totaling $1,633,521 as of June 30, 2002 were
paid off upon closing.



CAPITAL RESOURCES

A Letter of Intent between Uptowner Inns, Inc. and Huntington Area
Development Corporation was signed on November 16, 2001, for the purchase
of 2.2 acres of land at the Kinetic Park Commercial Area for a purchase
price of $350,000 per acre. The company planned on constructing a hotel
on the site. Huntington Area Development Corporation and the company
executed a real estate purchase and sale agreement on August 19, 2002
("Purchaser") for the purchase of this property. Under the terms of the
agreement, the purchase price for the property is $875,000. The company
made a $10,000 deposit on the property. The Purchaser had the right and
option for a period of 45 days commencing on August 19, 2002, to enter the
property to conduct physical inspections. At the expiration of the
inspection period, the company paid the sum of $50,000 as an additional
deposit. The closing was originally scheduled for November 22, 2002, and
later extended to February 1, 2003. The projected cost of the project is
$5,809,000, with $4,500,000 being financed. The projected operational
date was set at July, 2004, before problems were found with the land fill
at the construction site. The remaining balance due of $815,000 has been
placed in escrow until the land fill problem has been resolved.

The apartment building located at 1340 Fourth Avenue, in Huntington,
West Virginia was sold at auction on September 12, 2002, for $361,000, and
closed in January, 2003.

The apartment building located at 1416-18 Fourth Avenue, in
Huntington, West Virginia, was sold at auction on September 12, 2002, for
$160,000, and closed in October, 2002. The property was subject to a
mortgage in favor of Betty M. Dove, in the original amount of $76,000, 10%
interest, maturing June 2002, the balance of which was $1,031 at June 30,
2002.

CAPITAL RESOURCES CONTINUED


The apartment building located at Fourth Avenue, in Huntington, West
Virginia, was sold at auction on September 12, 2002, for $752,000, and
closed in January, 2003. The property was subject to a mortgage in favor
