PART I

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
- ---------------------------

This Annual Report contains "forward looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward
looking statements are based upon management's expectations, estimates,
projections and assumptions. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends",
"plans", "believes", "estimates", and variations of such words and similar
expressions are intended to identify such forward looking statements which
include, but are not limited to, projections of capital expenditures, earnings,
income taxes payable, financing and capital infusions. These forward looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause the
Company's actual results or performance to differ materially from those
expressed or implied in such statements. These risks and uncertainties include,
but are not limited to the following: obtaining additional financing to fund
future operating requirements, general risks affecting the real estate industry,
including the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on unfavorable terms
to generate rental revenues, competition for tenants from other owners of retail
properties, competition from other retailers, successful operations by and the
financial condition of tenants, particularly major tenants, adverse changes in
Orlando, Florida and national economic and market conditions, ability to achieve
financial requirements necessary for extension of the Partnership's credit
agreement beyond January 2, 2005 and access to and adequacy of financing to
complete the Company's Festival Bay project in Orlando, Florida. Any further
terrorist attacks or armed conflicts may directly impact the Company's
properties or such attacks or conflicts may cause consumer spending to decrease
or result in increased volatility in the United States financial markets. Any of
these occurrences could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

Item 1. Business

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

Thackeray Corporation ("Thackeray" or the "Company") is a Delaware
corporation which holds an investment in a real estate partnership, as well as
real estate for investment.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Thackeray's business is the management of its real estate
investments. The Company does not presently intend to acquire additional real
estate assets. For information with respect to Thackeray's real estate, see
Notes 1 and 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual
Report, which Notes are incorporated herein by reference.

In 1996, the Company and affiliates of Belz Enterprises ("Belz")
entered into an Agreement of Limited Partnership of BT Orlando Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership"). Pursuant to this agreement, the Company agreed
to contribute approximately 140 acres of its Orlando, Florida property to the
Joint Venture (JV) Partnership. The JV is in the process of developing,
constructing and leasing an approximately 925,000 square foot retail and
entertainment shopping center complex - Festival Bay - on the property which is
to consist of 655,000 sq.ft. of anchor and other perimeter tenants and 270,000
sq.ft of interior small stores. The Company has a 35% general partner interest
in the Partnership and will also participate in the cash flow, sales proceeds
and refinancing proceeds from the operation, financing and disposition of such
project. The agreement also contains certain buy-sell provisions among the


3

partners. The Company and Belz also entered into a letter agreement in 1996
regarding the development of the remaining approximately 78 acres of the
Company's Orlando, Florida property. Pursuant to this letter agreement , the
parties agreed to form a new partnership to develop 22.5 acres of such property
as commercial property and 55.5 acres thereof as multi-family residential
property. The Company and Belz, or one of its affiliates, will be 50% owners and
general partners of such partnership, and the Company will be entitled to
certain preferential distributions.

In September 1999, the Company's real estate Partnership closed $40
million of construction financing and simultaneously the Company deeded 140
acres of its Orlando, Florida acreage to the Partnership and also pledged its
remaining contiguous 78 acres as additional collateral to secure the
construction loan.

Development efforts largely were completed mid - 2003 and leasing
efforts for the project are on-going. A 20 screen Cinemark theatre opened in
December 1999, a Bass Pro 163,000 sq.ft. anchor store opened in June 2000, and a
50,000 sq.ft. Van's Skate Park opened in January 2002. Leases for approximately
60% of the mall have been executed as of December 31, 2003. Both Cinemark and
Bass Pro experienced increases in volume in 2003 over 2002 while Van's activity
remained relatively flat.

The $40 million construction loan was refinanced in October 2001 and
additional financing was obtained by the real estate Partnership as part of a
$104.3 million third party facility. In connection with the financing, the
partnership agreement was materially revised and amended to provide for certain
adjustments to the economic rights and obligations of the partners. In
accordance with the August 2001 revision to the partnership agreement, the
Company contributed $1.75 million to the Partnership capital and Belz
contributed $12.1 million. In addition to the $12.1 million, Belz contributed
$9.3 million through December 31, 2001, which is entitled to a 9% annual,
cumulative, uncompounded preferential return and is senior to all prior
Partnership investments of the Company and Belz, which investments are not
entitled to a preferential return subsequent to July 2001.

The Partnership experienced a slow down in rental activity by
mid-year 2001, which worsened in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
Orlando tourism was adversely effected and theme park attendance and hotel
occupancy rates dropped substantially and have yet to return to pre 9/11 levels.
Visitors to the Orlando area (per Global Insight, Inc.) increased by
approximately 2.5% in 2003 as compared with 2002 while theme park attendance was
flat for the period (per Amusement Business Trade Association). However,
according to the Florida Retail Federation, its Florida Retail Index halted its
descent in mid year 2003 and turned around with positive results for three
consecutive quarters through the first quarter of 2004. The Orlando region is
the second highest regional component of the Index. Proof of the retail growth
is the 12.9% increase in sales tax collections for January 2004 as compared with
January 2003.

Pursuant to an August 2001 letter agreement by the partners
concerning the future development by the partners of the approximately 78 acres
owned by Thackeray which are contiguous to the 140 Festival Bay acres, the
partners were to agree upon conceptual construction plans, an overall
development plan and a development budget for the 78 acres on or before June 30,
2003. In the absence of such an agreement between the parties, the August 2001
letter agreement automatically terminated. June 30, 2003 passed without such a


4

mutual understanding, thereby voiding the agreement and any rights Thackeray's
partners may have had to the contiguous 78 acres.

The Partnership was in default of provisions of its credit agreement
as amended which required certain annualized operating income and small store
lease levels be achieved by October 2003. The lenders under the credit agreement
and the mezzanine lender waived such defaults and an amendment to such
provisions was agreed to in January 2004. The amendment extends the maturity
date of the credit agreement and that of the mezzanine loan from October 1, 2004
to January 2, 2005, but provides for an additional extension of one year to
January 2, 2006 if, by November 30, 2004, the Partnership is receiving monthly
base rent from signed leases of $800,000 and has achieved an 80% occupancy rate
from tenants open for business. The Partnership is unlikely to satisfy both of
the November 30, 2004 requirements.
