VORNADO REALTY L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization
Vornado Realty L.P. (the "Operating Partnership" and/or the "Company") is a Delaware limited partnership. Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado"), a fully-integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT"), is the sole general partner of, and owned approximately 86.4% of the limited partnership interest in, the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2004. All references to "We," "Us," and "Company" refer to the Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries.
2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vornado Realty L.P. as well as entities in which the Company owns (i) more than 50%, unless a partner has shared board and management representation and authority and substantive participation rights on all significant business decisions or (ii) 50% or less when the Company is considered the primary beneficiary and the entity qualifies as a variable interest entity under FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised)Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, ("FIN 46R") which became effective on March 31, 2004. All significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated. Equity interests in partially-owned corporate entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting when the Company's ownership interest is more than 20%, but less than 50%. When partially-owned investments are in partnership form, the 20% threshold for equity method accounting may be reduced. Investments accounted for under the equity method are recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company's share of the net income or loss and cash contributions and distributions to or from these entities. For all other investments, the Company uses the cost method.
Management has made 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 expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 46 (Revised)Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46R")
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, as amended in December 2003 by FIN 46R, which deferred the effective date until the first interim or annual reporting period ending after March 15, 2004. FIN 46R requires the consolidation of an entity by an enterprise known as a "primary beneficiary," (i) if that enterprise has a variable interest that will absorb a majority of the entity's expected losses, if they occur, receive a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, if they occur, or both and (ii) if the entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), as defined. An entity qualifies as a VIE if (i) the total equity investment at risk in the entity is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or (ii) the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest in the entity. The initial determination of whether an entity is a VIE shall be made as of the date at which an enterprise becomes involved with the entity and re-evaluated as of the date of triggering events, as defined. The Company has evaluated each partially-owned entity to determine whether any qualify as a VIE, and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, as defined. The Company has determined that its investment in Newkirk MLP, in which it owns a 22.3% equity interest (see Note 5Investments in Partially-Owned Entities), qualifies as a VIE. The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary and, accordingly, consolidation is not required. The Company's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement in Newkirk MLP is limited to its equity investment of approximately $145,088,000, as of March 31, 2004. In addition, the Company has variable interests in certain other entities which are primarily financing arrangements. The Company has evaluated these entities in accordance with FIN 46R and has determined that they are not VIEs. Based on the Company's evaluations, the adoption of FIN 46R on March 31, 2004 did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

4. Acquisitions, Dispositions and Financings
Acquisitions
Forest Plaza Shopping Center
On February 3, 2004, the Company acquired the Forest Plaza Shopping Center for approximately $32,500,000, of which $14,000,000 was paid in cash, and $18,500,000 was debt assumed. The purchase was funded as part of Section 1031 tax-free "like-kind" exchange with the remaining portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's Two Park Avenue property. Forest Plaza is a 165,000 square foot shopping center located in Staten Island, New York, anchored by a Waldbaum's supermarket.
25 W. 14th Street
On March 19, 2004, the Company acquired a 62,000 square foot free-standing retail building located at 25 W. 14th Street in Manhattan for $40,000,000. The building, which was recently renovated, was 87% occupied as of March 31, 2004. This purchase will ultimately be funded as part of a Section 1031 tax-free "like-kind" exchange with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's Palisades Residential Complex which is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2004.

On February 27, 2004, the Company acquired the remaining 25% interest it did not previously own for approximately $17,000,000. The Company's gain on sale after closing costs will be approximately $70,000,000. The sale, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2004.
In the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company sold certain partially-owned development property which resulted in a net gain on disposition of wholly-owned and partially-owned assets other than depreciable real estate of $776,000 and $188,000, respectively.

The redemption amount exceeded the carrying amount by $700,000, representing the original issuance costs. Upon redemption, these issuance costs were recorded as a reduction to earnings in arriving at net income applicable to Class A units, in accordance with the July 2003 EITF clarification of Topic D-42.
On March 17, 2004, the Company redeemed all of its Series B Preferred Units at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share for an aggregate of $85,000,000 plus accrued distributions. The redemption amount exceeded the carrying amount by $3,195,000, representing the original issuance costs.

Temperature Controlled Logistics
Based on the joint venture's policy of recognizing rental income when earned and collection is assured or cash is received, the Company did not recognize $6,465,000 and $3,376,000 of rent it was due for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, which together with previously deferred rent is $55,901,000.
On February 5, 2004, AmeriCold Realty Trust completed a $254,400,000 mortgage financing for 21 of its owned and 7 of its leased temperature-controlled warehouses. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.95% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% with respect to $54,400,000 of the loan) and requires principal payments of $5,000,000 annually. The loan matures in April 2009 and is pre-payable without penalty after April 5, 2006. The net proceeds were approximately $225,000,000 after providing for usual escrows, closing costs and the repayment of $12,900,000 of existing mortgages on two of the warehouses, of which $135,000,000 was distributed to the Company and the remainder was distributed to its partner.
On January 20, and March 29, 2004, a joint venture in which the Company has a 44% interest acquired an aggregate of $10,200,000 of trade receivables from AmeriCold Logistics for $10,000,000 in cash. These receivables have been subsequently collected in full.
Alexander's
The Company owns 33% of the outstanding common stock of Alexander's at March 31, 2004. Alexander's is managed by, and its properties are leased by, the Company pursuant to agreements with a one-year term expiring in March of each year, except for the Lexington Avenue agreements which provide for a term lasting until substantial completion of the development of the property, all of which are automatically renewable. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had a receivable from Alexander's of $39,062,000 under the management and development agreements. In addition, Alexander's paid $493,000 to Building Maintenance Services, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, for cleaning and engineering services at Alexander's Lexington Avenue project.
Effective April 1, 2004, based on Alexander's improved liquidity, the Company modified its term loan and line of credit to Alexander's to reduce the spread it charges from 9.48% to 6%. Accordingly, the current interest rate has been reduced to 9% from 12.48%.
On February 13, 2004, Alexander's completed a $400,000,000 mortgage financing on the Office Space of its Lexington Avenue development project placed by German American Capital Corporation, an affiliate of Deutsche Bank. The loan bears interest at 5.33%, matures in February 2014 and beginning in the third year, provides for principal payments based on a 25-year amortization schedule such that over the remaining eight years of the loan, ten years of amortization will be paid. Of the loan proceeds, $253,529,000 was used to repay the entire amount outstanding under the construction loan with HVB Real Estate Capital (Hypo) ("Construction Loan"). The Construction Loan was modified so that the remaining availability is $237,000,000, which was approximately the amount estimated to complete the Lexington Avenue development project. The interest rate on the Construction Loan is LIBOR plus 2.5% (currently 3.60%) and matures in January 2006, with two one-year extensions. The collateral for the Construction Loan is the same, except that the Office Space has been removed from the lien. Further, the Construction Loan permits the release of the retail space for $15,000,000 and requires all proceeds from the sale of the residential condominiums units to be applied to the Construction Loan balance until it is finally repaid. In connection with reducing the principal amount of the Construction Loan Alexander's wrote-off $3,050,000 of unamortized deferred financing costs in the first quarter of 2004, of which the Company's share was $1,010,000.
Equity in loss from Alexander's includes Alexander's stock appreciation rights compensation expense of which the Company's share was $9,913,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, based on a closing Alexander's stock price of $160.00 on March 31, 2004.

12. Commitments and Contingencies
At March 31, 2004, the Company's $600,000,000 revolving credit facility had a zero balance, and the Company utilized $12,805,000 of availability under the facility for letters of credit and guarantees.
Each of the Company's properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to the Company.
The Company carries comprehensive liability and all risk property insurance ((i) fire, (ii) flood, (iii) extended coverage, (iv) "acts of terrorism" as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 which expires in 2005 and (v) rental loss insurance) with respect to its assets. In April 2004, the Company renewed its all risk policies and increased its coverage for Acts of Terrorism for each of its New York Office, CESCR Office and Merchandise Mart divisions. Below is a summary of the current all risk property insurance and terrorism risk insurance for each of the Company's business segments:
|
Coverage Per Occurrence |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

In addition to the coverage above, the Company carries lesser amounts of coverage for terrorist acts not covered by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002.
The Company's debt instruments, consisting of mortgage loans secured by its properties (which are generally non-recourse to the Company), its senior unsecured notes due 2007 and 2010 and its revolving credit agreement, contain customary covenants requiring the Company to maintain insurance. Although the Company believes that it has adequate insurance coverage under these agreements, the Company may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. Further, if lenders insist on greater coverage than the Company is able to obtain, it could adversely affect the Company's ability to finance and/or refinance its properties and expand its portfolio.
From time to time, the Company has disposed of substantial amounts of real estate to third parties for which, as to certain properties, it remains contingently liable for rent payments or mortgage indebtedness that cannot be quantified by the Company.
There are various legal actions against the Company in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.

13. Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to 2003, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method (i.e. the difference between the price per unit at the grant date and the option exercise price). Accordingly, no stock-based compensation was recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements for plan awards granted prior to 2003. If compensation cost for plan awards granted prior to 2003 had been determined based on fair value at the grant dates, net income and income per Class A unit would have been reduced to the pro-forma amounts below:

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Vornado Realty L.P.
New York, New York
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty L.P. as of March 31, 2004, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of Vornado Realty L.P. as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 2, 2004, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Certain statements contained herein constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our future results, financial condition and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "will," "would," "may" or similar expressions in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 under "Forward Looking Statements" and "Item 1. BusinessCertain Factors That May Adversely Affect the Company's Business and Operations." For these statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes a discussion of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Overview
The Company owns and operates office, retail and showroom properties with large concentrations of office and retail properties in the New York City metropolitan area and in the Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia area. In addition, the Company has a 60% interest in a partnership that owns cold storage warehouses nationwide.
The Company's business objective is to maximize Vornado Realty Trust's shareholder value. The Company measures its success in meeting this objective by Vornado Realty Trust's total return to its shareholders. Below is a table comparing Vornado's performance to the Morgan Stanley REIT Index ("RMS") for the following periods ending March 31, 2004:
|
Total Return |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Vornado |
RMS |
|||
Three-months | 12.2 | % | 12.1 | % | |
One-year | 80.2 | % | 51.6 | % | |
Three-years | 104.9 | % | 80.1 | % | |
Five-years | 137.5 | % | 127.8 | % | |
Ten-years | 510.0 | % | 227.9 | %(1) |
The Company intends to continue to achieve its business objective by pursuing its investment philosophy and executing its operating strategies through:
The Company competes with a large number of real estate property owners and developers. Principal factors of competition are rent charged, attractiveness of location and quality and breadth of services provided. The Company's success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the national and local economies, financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation and population trends. The current economic recovery is fostered, in part, by low interest rates, Federal tax cuts, and increases in government spending. To the extent this recovery stalls, the Company may experience lower occupancy rates which may lead to lower initial rental rates, higher leasing costs and a corresponding decrease in net income, funds from operations and cash flow. Alternatively, if the recovery continues, the Company may experience higher occupancy rates leading to higher initial rents and higher interest rates causing an increase in the Company's weighted average cost of capital and a corresponding effect on net income, funds from operations and cash flow.

This decrease resulted primarily from $6,284,000 of interest received in the first quarter of 2003 in connection with the Dearborn Center loan receivable repayment (of which $5,655,000 was contingent interest income), offset by interest income recognized in the first quarter of 2004, on the $225,000,000 GM Building mezzanine loans.

Net Gains on Disposition of Wholly-owned and Partially-owned Assets other than Real Estate
Net gains on disposition of "wholly-owned and partially-owned assets other than depreciable real estate" reflects the Company's $776,000 share of gains on disposition of certain partially-owned development assets in the current quarter and a $188,000 gain on sale of Kinzie Park Condominium units in the prior year's quarter.
Discontinued Operations
Assets related to discontinued operations at March 31, 2004, consist primarily of real estate, net of accumulated depreciation and represent the Company's retail properties located in Vineland, New Jersey, and Baltimore (Dundalk), Maryland as well as the Palisades located in Fort Lee, New Jersey. Liabilities related to discontinued operations represent the Palisades mortgage payable of $120,000,000 at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
The combined results of operations of the assets related to discontinued operations as well as the Company's Two Park Avenue office property, sold on October 10, 2003, which resulted in a net gain of $156,433,000, and Baltimore and Hagerstown, Maryland retail properties, which were sold on January 9, 2003 and November 3, 2003 (resulting in net gains of $2,644,000 and $1,945,000) are shown as discontinued operations.

Acquisitions
On February 3, 2004, the Company acquired the Forest Plaza Shopping Center for approximately $32,500,000, of which $14,000,000 was paid in cash, and $18,500,000 was debt assumed. The purchase was funded as part of Section 1031 tax-free "like kind" exchange with the remaining portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's Two Park Avenue property. Forest Plaza is a 165,000 square foot shopping center located in Staten Island, New York, anchored by a Waldbaum's supermarket.
On March 19, 2004, the Company acquired a 62,000 square foot free-standing retail building located at 25 W. 14th Street in Manhattan for $40,000,000. The building, which was recently renovated, was 87% occupied as of March 31, 2004. This purchase will ultimately be funded as part of a Section 1031 tax-free "like-kind" exchange with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Company's Palisades Residential Complex which is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2004.
Dispositions
On January 9, 2003, the Company sold its Baltimore, Maryland shopping center for $4,752,000, which resulted in a net gain on sale after closing costs of $2,644,000.
On February 2, 2004, the Palisades Venture entered into an agreement to sell its only asset, a 538 unit high-rise residential apartment tower in Fort Lee, New Jersey, for $222,500,000. On February 27, 2004, the Company acquired the remaining 25% interest it did not previously own for approximately $17,000,000. The Company's gain on sale after closing costs will be approximately $70,000,000. The sale, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2004.
Financings
On January 6, 2004, the Company redeemed all of its 8.375% Series D-2 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units at a redemption price equal to $50.00 per unit for an aggregate of $27.5 million plus accrued distributions. The redemption amount exceeded the carrying amount by $700,000, representing the original issuance costs. Upon redemption, these issuance costs were recorded as a reduction to earnings in arriving at net income applicable to Class A units, in accordance with the July 2003 EITF clarification of Topic D-42.
On March 17, 2004, the Company redeemed all of its Series B Preferred Units at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share for an aggregate of $85,000,000 plus accrued distributions. The redemption amount exceeded the carrying amount by $3,195,000, representing the original issuance costs. Upon redemption, these issuance costs were recorded as a reduction to earnings in arriving at net income applicable to Class A units, in accordance with the July 2003 EITF clarification of Topic D-42.
For details of the Company's financing activities see Note 7Notes and Mortgages Payable.
The Company anticipates that cash from continuing operations will be adequate to fund business operations and the payment of dividends and distributions on an on-going basis for more than the next twelve months; however, capital outlays for significant acquisitions would require funding from borrowings or equity offerings.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
The Company has exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control of the Company. Various financial instruments exist which would allow management to mitigate the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the Company's cash flows and earnings.
As of March 31, 2004, the Company has an interest rate swap as described in footnote 1 to the table below. In addition, during 2003 the Company purchased two interest rate caps with notional amounts aggregating $295,000,000, and simultaneously sold two interest rate caps with the same aggregate notional amount on substantially the same terms as the caps purchased. As the significant terms of these arrangements are the same, the effects of a revaluation of these instruments are expected to substantially offset one another. Management may engage in additional hedging strategies in the future, depending on management's analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies.
The Company's exposure to a change in interest rates on its wholly-owned and partially-owned debt (all of which arises out of non-trading activity) is as follows:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures: The management of Vornado (the Company's sole general partner), with the participation of Vornado's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, Vornado's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
37
The Company is from time to time involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such matters, including in respect of the matters referred to below, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The following supplements and amends the discussion set forth under Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Stop & Shop
As previously disclosed, on January 8, 2003, Stop & Shop filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey ("USDC-NJ") claiming the Company has no right to reallocate and therefore continue to collect the $5,000,000 of annual rent from Stop & Shop pursuant to the Master Agreement and Guaranty, because of the expiration of the East Brunswick, Jersey City, Middletown, Union and Woodbridge leases to which the $5,000,000 of additional rent was previously allocated. Stop & Shop asserted that a prior order of the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York dated February 6, 2001, as modified on appeal to the District Court for the Southern District of New York on February 13, 2001, terminated the Company's right to reallocate. On March 3, 2003, after the Company moved to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, Stop & Shop voluntarily withdrew its complaint.
On March 26, 2003, Stop & Shop filed a new complaint in New York Supreme Court, asserting substantially the same claims as in its USDC-NJ complaint. On April 9, 2003, the Company moved the New York Supreme Court action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On June 30, 2003, the District Court ordered that the case be placed in suspension and ordered the parties to proceed in a related case that the Company commenced in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. On July 24, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court referred the related case to mediation. The mediation has not been concluded. If this matter is not resolved through mediation, the hearing will reconvene in the Bankruptcy Court. The Company believes that the additional rent provision of the guaranty expires at the earliest in 2012 and will vigorously oppose Stop & Shop's complaint.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company issued 6,922,017 Class A Units in exchange for certain of the preferred units of the Company. Of these Class A units, 5,679,727 were issued to the holder of the Company's Series E-1 preferred units in a 1 for 1.1364 exchange of the Series E-1 preferred units. All of the Class A units were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on Section 4(2) of that Act.
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company did not file any reports on Form 8-K.
