                                                -254-                                                   
            Kanter also arranged for subsidiaries of IRA (Zeus) and of                                  
            THC (Zion) to invest in some of Frey’s projects as limited                                  
            partners.                                                                                   
                  In early 1980, Ballard approved the sale by a pension fund                            
            managed by Prudential of a large apartment complex in Florida                               
            known as Village of Kings Creek to a limited partnership                                    
            organized by Frey.  Ballard visited the project during the                                  
            conversion period.  Frey was very successful in converting the                              
            property to condominiums.  Shortly thereafter, in the fall of                               
            1981, Prudential entered into a several joint venture condominium                           
            conversion projects with Frey (under which Frey managed the                                 
            conversion of Prudential properties into condominiums).                                     
                  At this time, Kanter and Frey committed their earlier oral                            
            fee-sharing agreement to writing.  The Frey/THC participation                               
            agreement provided that for condominium conversion projects                                 
            involving Prudential properties, and any future condominium                                 
            conversion projects not involving Prudential properties, THC and                            
            Frey would participate in capital contributions and profits and                             
            losses as 33-percent and 67-percent partners, respectively.  In                             
            addition, after October 1, 1981, THC would receive 5 percent of                             
            any development fees derived from any condominium conversion                                
            projects not involving Prudential properties.  Frey agreed to                               
            share development fees with THC as a way to compensate Kanter for
