                                       - 26 -                                         
               The memorandum further states that for the years 1997, 1998,           
          and 1999, the ad hoc committee had coordinated and worked with              
          AFVW management to review and make recommendations regarding the            
          portion of monthly service fees allocable to medical care.  In              
          addition, the memorandum states that certified data from the                
          financial records of AFVW for these years was provided to the ad            
          hoc committee and that data was used to determine the appropriate           
          allocation percentage.  The allocation percentage is listed as              
          40.3 percent and 41.6 percent for the years 1997 and 1998,                  
          respectively.  The memorandum then states that the portion of the           
          monthly service fees allocable to medical care is determined per            
          resident.  AFVW residents were advised to consult their tax                 
          adviser for possible application of the information contained in            
          the memorandum, and it is stated that neither AFVW nor the                  
          resident council is a tax adviser.  The memorandum is signed by             
          the chairman of the resident council and the president/CEO of               
          AFVW.
