The properties that we have sold to a related party under common control and have deferred the recognition of the sale are treated as “subject to sales contract” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  These properties were sold to a related party in order to help facilitate an appropriate debt or organizational restructure and may or may not be transferred back to the seller upon resolution.  These properties have mortgages that are secured by the property and many have corporate guarantees.  According to the loan documents, we are currently in default on these mortgages primarily due to lack of payment although we are actively involved in discussions with every lender in order to settle or cure the default situation.  We have reviewed each asset and taken impairment in the prior year to the extent we feel the value of the property was less than our current basis
