PART I
ITEMS 1 AND 2. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
At December 31, 2000, Lincorp Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") had
approximately $175.9 million of principal and accrued interest (the
"Indebtedness") outstanding under its various debt obligations. The Company's
parent company, Unicorp Inc. ("Unicorp"), holds all of the Company's
Indebtedness. The Company is in payment default under several of the debt
obligations comprising the Indebtedness. The Indebtedness is secured by a senior
security interest in all of the Company's assets. See Note 4 to the Company's
Financial Statements.
During 2000, Unicorp agreed to waive substantially all interest owing
by the Company on its Indebtedness to Unicorp that would otherwise accrue for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, which was approximately $10.9
million.
The Company's sources of funds during the year ended December 31, 2000,
and to date, have been primarily from its previously existing cash balances and
advances from Unicorp. Unless Unicorp continues to defer in realizing on the
pledged collateral, the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
As of December 31, 2000, the Company's stockholders' deficit was $179.5 million.
REAL ESTATE AND MORTGAGE LOAN TRANSACTIONS
During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company made a $0.6 million
secured first mortgage loan to Republic Development Co. (the "Republic Mortgage
Loan") for the purpose of developing a commercial real estate property. This
loan was scheduled to mature May 19, 1998. To finance this loan, the Company
borrowed funds from Unicorp. The Unicorp borrowing was in the form of a $602,000
discounted note (the "Unicorp Republic Note") which matured on May 19, 1998 in
the amount of $620,000 and is secured by the Republic Mortgage Loan.
The Republic Mortgage Loan was not repaid on May 19, 1998 and in
November 1999, the Company foreclosed on the Republic Mortgage Loan and took
possession of the land. As of December 31, 2000, the Company reduced the
carrying value of the land to $300,000 which it believes is the current fair
market value of the land. The Unicorp Republic Note, which matured on May 19,
1998, was not repaid by the Company as its payment was dependent upon collecting
the Republic Mortgage Loan. Unicorp has agreed to defer the collection of its
note until the land is sold.
On December 16, 1998, the Company sold its limited partnership interest
in the Cambridge Park Partnership (the "Partnership") for $1,035,000 cash plus
an interest free $247,500 promissory note (the
-1-
"Note") payable within three years of closing. The Company did not record the
value of the Note at the time of sale and will record it as income when the Note
is collected.
EMPLOYEES
The Company presently has no compensated employees.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
(A) Joseph Frazier ("Frazier") has instituted three lawsuits in which
Lincorp Holdings, Inc., the Company's predecessors in interest, Greit Realty
Trust Company and Unicorp America Corporation (collectively the "Company"), and
other parties were named as defendants. All three actions arose from a series of
real estate-related transactions which began in 1978 with respect to property in
Bucks County, PA (the "Bucks Property"). More specifically, Frazier's
partnership used a mortgage as a vehicle pursuant to which Greit paid the
partnership $400,000 contemporaneously with entering into the agreement and gave
the partnership a Promissory Note in the amount of $850,000 which further
provided for nineteen annual payments of $10,000 each and a final installment of
$660,000. In return, the partnership assigned its rights in an Agreement of Sale
for the Bucks Property to Greit. The Company has not made any payment to the
partnership since 1992 and has a $730,000 unsecured liability recorded in its
financial statements.
In 1993, Frazier instituted an action in the Court of Common Pleas of
Philadelphia County asserting claims against the Company for fraud and breach of
contract, i.e., the failure to make certain payments due and owing to Frazier
and/or a general partnership in which he had an interest in connection with a
mortgage granted to Frazier's partnership by Greit. In 1997, Frazier instituted
a second action in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County alleging
fraudulent conveyancing of the Bucks Property by five separate parties,
including the Company. These actions have been consolidated with FRAZIER V.
ESTATE OF WRIGHT, an action previously filed in the Court of Common Pleas of
Philadelphia County by Frazier against his late partner and attorney, Bruce
Wright, alleging legal malpractice. The two actions against the Company were
dismissed for failure to join an indispensable party. The appellate court denied
Frazier's appeal of that dismissal as premature until judgment is entered in the
FRAZIER V. ESTATE OF WRIGHT case.
In 1998, Frazier instituted an action in the Court of Common Pleas of
Bucks County, PA asserting vague claims arising from the conveyance of the Bucks
Property. Frazier has asserted claims against the Company and numerous other
parties, including approximately 475 homeowners who currently reside on the
Bucks Property. Frazier sought to eject the homeowners from their homes and
regain possession of the Bucks Property. The Court has dismissed claims against
the home-owners. Frazier still seeks damages of $84 million from the Company and
from other defendants. The Company is vigorously defending the claims that have
been asserted in the Bucks County action.
(B) A tax assessment (the "Assessment") has been made by the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts against a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, which was dissolved in July 1990. The Massachusetts Department of
Revenue (the "MDR") stated, in a notice dated February 15, 1992, that the
-2-
amount due and owing was $1.2 million and it is believed that additional
interest and/or penalties have been imposed with regard to the Assessment. On
November 29, 1993, an Offer in Settlement (the "Offer") was forwarded to the MDR
with respect to the Assessment which was rejected by the MDR on October 26,
1995, and there have been no subsequent developments on this matter since that
date. The ultimate outcome of the Assessment cannot be determined at this time.

On February 16, 2001, there were approximately 765 stockholders of
record of the Company's Common Stock. There were no dividends paid on the
Company's Common Stock in 2000 and 1999.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
At December 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $175.9 million of
principal and accrued interest (the "Indebtedness") outstanding under its
various debt obligations. The Company's parent company, Unicorp Inc.
("Unicorp"), holds all of the Company's Indebtedness. The Company is in payment
default under several of the debt obligations comprising the Indebtedness. The
Indebtedness is secured by a senior security interest in all of the Company's
assets. See Note 4 to the Company's Financial Statements.
During 2000, Unicorp agreed to waive substantially all interest owing
by the Company on its Indebtedness to Unicorp that would otherwise accrue for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, which was approximately $10.9
million.
The Company's sources of funds during the year ended December 31, 2000,
and to date, have been primarily from its previously existing cash balances and
advances from Unicorp. Unless Unicorp continues to defer in realizing on the
pledged collateral, the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
As of December 31, 2000, the Company's stockholders' deficit was $179.5 million.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
2000 COMPARED TO 1999
For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company had a net loss of
$0.4 million compared to a net loss of $0.3 million for the year ended December
31, 1999.
1999 COMPARED TO 1998
For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company had a net loss of
$0.3 million compared to a net loss of $5.7 million for the year ended December
31, 1998. Excluding the impact of the gain on the sale of a real estate asset of
$.1 million in 1998 and the $5.5 million of interest not waived by Unicorp in
1998, the comparative net loss for 1998 was $0.3 million.
Interest expense decreased $5.5 million primarily because Unicorp
agreed to waive substantially all interest owing by the Company on it's
Indebtedness to Unicorp that would otherwise accrue starting July 1, 1998. As
such, 1998 excludes six months of such interest while 1999 excludes twelve
months of interest.

FINANCIAL POSITION
MATERIAL CHANGES SINCE DECEMBER 31, 1999
As of December 31, 2000, the Company reduced its carrying value of its
real estate investment by $311,000, to $300,000, which it believes is it's
current fair market value.
There were no other significant changes in the Company's financial
position since December 31, 1999.

Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Lincorp Holdings, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Lincorp Holdings, Inc.
("Company") as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of
operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for each of the
years in the three year period ended December 31, 2000. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Lincorp Holdings, Inc. as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2000 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company is in default on several of its credit
facilities and, at December 31, 2000, has $97.1 million of principal
indebtedness, and $78.2 million of accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, the
Company has a net capital deficiency of $179.5 million as of December 31, 2000.
These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern. The Company's plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
At December 31, 2000, Lincorp Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") had
approximately $175.9 million of principal and accrued interest (the
"Indebtedness") outstanding under its various debt obligations. The Company's
parent company, Unicorp Inc. ("Unicorp"), holds all of the Company's
Indebtedness. The Company is in payment default under several of the debt
obligations comprising the Indebtedness. The Indebtedness is secured by a senior
security interest in all of the Company's assets.
During 1998, 1999 and 2000, Unicorp agreed to waive substantially all
interest owing by the Company on its Indebtedness to Unicorp that would
otherwise accrue for the period July 1, 1998 through December 31, 2000. For the
twelve months ended December 31, 1999 and 2000 the interest waived was
approximately $10.9 million per year. For the six months ended December 31,
1998, the interest waived was approximately $5.6 million.
The Company's sources of funds during the year ended December 31, 2000,
and to date, have been primarily from its previously existing cash balances and
advances from Unicorp. Unless Unicorp continues to defer realizing on the
pledged collateral, the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 - REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS
During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company made a $0.6 million
secured first mortgage loan to Republic Development Co. (the "Republic Mortgage
Loan") for the purpose of developing a commercial real estate property. This
loan was scheduled to mature May 19, 1998. To finance this loan, the Company
borrowed funds from Unicorp. The Unicorp borrowing was in the form of a $602,000
discounted note (the "Unicorp Republic Note") which matured on May 19, 1998 in
the amount of $620,000 and was secured by the Republic Mortgage Loan.
The Republic Mortgage Loan was not repaid on May 19, 1998 and in
November 1999, the Company foreclosed on the Republic Mortgage Loan and took
possession of the land. As of December 31, 2000, the Company reduced the
carrying value of the land by $311,000 to $300,000 which it believes is the
current fair market value of the land. The Unicorp Republic Note, which matured
on May 19, 1998, was not repaid by the Company as its payment was dependent upon
collecting the Republic Mortgage Loan. Unicorp has agreed to defer the
collection of its note until the land is sold.
On December 16, 1998, the Company sold its limited partnership interest
in the Cambridge Park Partnership (the "Partnership") for $1,035,000 cash plus
an interest free $247,500 promissory note (the "Note") payable within three
years of closing. The Company's investment in the Partnership was $900,000. The
Company did not record
F-6
the value of the Note at the time of the sale and will record it as income when
the Note is collected. Therefore, the gain recorded on this transaction in 1998
was $135,000.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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 financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE
The investment in real estate is carried at estimated fair market
value.
NOTE 4 - OTHER BORROWED FUNDS
The Company's other borrowed funds are as follows:

=========== ===========
F-7
(a) This debt facility, which is held by Unicorp, expired in August 1991 and
the Company has made no interest payments on this facility since its
expiration.
(b) This $65 million facility with Unicorp matured in August 1997, and calls
for interest-only payments at a fixed rate of 11.4 %, payable
semi-annually. The term loan includes convenants, among others, that
require the maintenance of a minimum level of tangible net worth and limit
aggregate levels of additional indebtedness. As a result of the losses
incurred by the Company, it was not in compliance with the above covenants
and it has not paid its semi-annual interest payment since August 1991.
(c) In November 1989, the Company entered into an agreement with Unicorp that
provided the Company with a line of credit in the aggregate amount of $30
million (amended to $25 million on July 25,1990) due on demand with an
interest rate of prime plus 3.5% and a standby fee of one quarter of one
percent of the unused portion of the commitment.
(d) This note with Unicorp matures June 30, 2005, and has an interest rate of
6.38%.
During 2000 and 1999, the weighted average amount of total principal debt
outstanding was $97.2 million. There is no weighted average interest cost
for 2000 and 1999 due to the Unicorp waiver of interest discussed in Note
1. The maximum amount of borrowed principal funds outstanding at any one
time during 2000 and 1999 was approximately $97.2 million.
SFAS No. 107 "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments"
requires entities to disclose the fair value of on and off-balance sheet
financial instruments. In view of the financial position of the Company at
December 31, 2000, management has determined it is not practicable to
estimate the fair value of debt and other borrowed funds.
NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES
Set forth below is an analysis of the Company's provision (refund) for
income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.
2000 1999 1998
--------- --------- --------
(dollars in thousands)
Current provision (refund):
State and local income taxes............ $ (11) $ (4) $ 22
========= ========= ========
F-8
A reconciliation of the total provision (benefit) for income taxes to
amounts computed by applying the federal tax rate to the net loss is as follows:
2000 1999 1998
------- ------- -------
(dollars in thousands)
Computed at statutory rate ............................. $ (152) $ (117) $(1,917)
State and local income taxes (benefit) ................. (4) (3) 14
Effect of no benefit recognized for net operating losses 145 116 1,925
------- ------- -------
Provision (refund) for income taxes .................... $ (11) $ (4) $ 22
======= ======= =======
The accompanying balance sheets reflect no deferred tax assets or
liabilities as of December 31, 2000 and 1999.
As part of the sale of its subsidiary, the Lincoln Savings Bank in
1994, the Company's debt previously owed to the National Bank of Canada ("NBC")
of approximately $77 million plus accrued and unpaid interest was transferred to
Unicorp. The debt acquired from NBC by Unicorp was acquired at a cost of $4.7
million. As a result of the transfer of the debt to an affiliate of the Company,
the amount of debt transferred which is in excess of the face amount is, for
federal and state income tax purposes, considered forgiveness of debt of the
Company and therefore is required to be included as taxable income by the
Company. The Company will not have to pay federal or state taxes on this income
because of its insolvency pursuant to Internal Revenue Service Code Section 108
(Discharge of Indebtedness). However, tax attributes of the Company (net
operating loss carry forwards, capital losses and built-in losses) will be
reduced to the extent of the forgiveness of indebtedness. Additionally, for
federal tax purposes, the Company may realize a bad debt loss of approximately
$85 million, as well as certain as yet undetermined and unrealized potential
capital losses. The Company has fully reserved any deferred tax benefit
associated with the net operating loss carryforwards.
NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
(A) Joseph Frazier ("Frazier") has instituted three lawsuits in which
Lincorp Holdings, Inc., the Company's predecessors in interest, Greit Realty
Trust Company and Unicorp America Corporation (collectively the "Company"), and
other parties were named as defendants. All three actions arose from a series of
real estate-related transactions which began in 1978 with respect to property in
Bucks County, PA (the "Bucks Property"). More specifically, Frazier's
partnership used a mortgage as a vehicle pursuant to which Greit paid the
partnership $400,000 contemporaneously with entering into the agreement and gave
the partnership a Promissory Note in the amount of $850,000 which further
provided for nineteen annual payments of $10,000 each and a final installment of
$660,000. In return, the partnership assigned its rights in an Agreement of Sale
for the Bucks Property to Greit. The Company has not made any payment to the
F-9
partnership since 1992 and has a $730,000 unsecured liability recorded in its
financial statements.
In 1993, Frazier instituted an action in the Court of Common Pleas of
Philadelphia County asserting claims against the Company for fraud and breach of
contract, i.e., the failure to make certain payments due and owing to Frazier
and/or a general partnership in which he had an interest in connection with a
mortgage granted to Frazier's partnership by Greit. In 1997, Frazier instituted
a second action in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County alleging
fraudulent conveyancing of the Bucks Property by five separate parties,
including the Company. These actions have been consolidated with FRAZIER V.
ESTATE OF WRIGHT, an action previously filed in the Court of Common Pleas of
Philadelphia County by Frazier against his late partner and attorney, Bruce
Wright, alleging legal malpractice. The two actions against the Company were
dismissed for failure to join an indispensable party. The appellate court
squashed Frazier's appeal of that dismissal as premature until judgment is
entered in the FRAZIER V. ESTATE OF WRIGHT case.
In 1998, Frazier instituted an action in the Court of Common Pleas of
Bucks County, PA asserting vague claims arising from the conveyance of the Bucks
Property. Frazier has asserted claims against the Company and numerous other
parties, including approximately 475 homeowners who currently reside on the
Bucks Property. Frazier sought to eject the homeowners from their homes and
regain possession of the Bucks Property. The Court has dismissed claims against
the home-owners. Frazier still seeks damages of $84 million from the Company and
from other defendants. The Company is vigorously defending the claims that have
been asserted in the Bucks County action.
(B) A tax assessment (the "Assessment") has been made by the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts against a former wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, which was dissolved in July 1990. The Massachusetts Department of
Revenue (the "MDR") stated, in a notice dated February 15, 1992, that the amount
due and owing was $1.2 million and it is believed that additional interest
and/or penalties have been imposed with regard to the Assessment. On November
29, 1993, an Offer in Settlement (the "Offer") was forwarded to the MDR with
respect to the Assessment which was rejected by the MDR on October 26, 1995, and
there have been no subsequent developments on this matter since that date. The
ultimate outcome of the Assessment cannot be determined at this time.
