AMERICAN COMMUNITY PROPERTIES TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)
ORGANIZATION

American Community Properties Trust (“ACPT”) is a self-managed holding company that is primarily engaged in the business of investing in and managing multifamily rental properties as well as community development and homebuilding.  ACPT’s operations are primarily concentrated in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and Puerto Rico and are carried out through its U.S. subsidiaries, American Rental Properties Trust ("ARPT"), American Rental Management Company ("ARMC "), American Land Development, Inc. ("ALD") and their subsidiaries and its Puerto Rican subsidiary, IGP Group Corp. ("IGP Group").

ACPT is taxed as a U.S. partnership and its income flows through to its shareholders.  ACPT is subject to Puerto Rico income taxes on IGP Group’s taxable income, generating foreign tax credits that have been passed through to ACPT’s shareholders.  A federal tax regulation has been proposed that could eliminate ACPT’s ability to pass through these foreign tax credits to its shareholders.  Comments on the proposed regulation are currently being evaluated, and the final regulation will be effective for tax years beginning after the final regulation is ultimately published in the Federal Register.  ACPT’s income consists of (i) certain passive income from IGP Group, (ii) additional distributions from IGP Group including Puerto Rico taxes paid on behalf of ACPT and (iii) dividends from ACPT’s U.S. subsidiaries.  Other than Interstate Commercial Properties (“ICP”), which is a subsidiary of IGP Group and is taxed as a Puerto Rico corporation, the income from the remaining Puerto Rico operating entities passes through to IGP Group or ALD.  Of this income, only the portion attributable to the profits, losses or gains on the residential land sold in our Parque Escorial property passes through to ALD.  ALD, ARMC, and ARPT are taxed as U.S. corporations. 

(2)
LIQUIDITY RESOURCES AND DEBT MATURITIES
 
The Company is in discussions with lenders to refinance or extend certain debt that is scheduled to mature in the near term.  The Company’s loans contain various financial, cross collateral, cross default, technical and restrictive provisions.  The Company has one line of credit and one non-recourse mortgage that mature in 2009.

In Puerto Rico, a $10,000,000 credit facility, with an outstanding balance of $5,207,000 as of March 31, 2009, matures on August 31, 2009.   The Company anticipates that the balance outstanding on this facility will be approximately $8,300,000 as of August 31, 2009.   While the Company will seek to refinance the line into a construction loan for the development of residential condominiums or extend the term of the facility, the current state of the credit market may prevent these plans from occurring.  Interstate General Properties Limited Partnership S.E. (“IGP”), another subsidiary of the Company, provided a guarantee on this credit facility; however, the lender’s recourse under this guarantee is limited to the collateral, except in the case of fraud, intentional misrepresentation, or misappropriation of income associated with the collateral. In the event of a default, the lender’s sole recourse is to foreclose on the property.  An event of default on this facility will not affect any other debt facility held by the Company. The collateral to support the line of credit consists of approximately 500 acres of land, which has a cost basis of $11,500,000 at March 31, 2009.  This property generates rental revenue of approximately $228,000 annually for a quarry site.  The property is also in the planning stages to be developed as the Company’s second planned community in Puerto Rico.

Also in Puerto Rico, the Company had a mortgage balance which was set to mature on April 30, 2009 but has been extended to May 31, 2009 as the Company completes the renewal of the related property’s Housing Assistance Program (“HAP”) contract.  As of March 31, 2009, the balance due was $6,739,500.  Should the Company be unable to negotiate or refinance with acceptable terms, the sole collateral for this mortgage is the Monserrate Associates apartment property, which has a cost basis of $3,462,000 at March 31, 2009.  This property generated approximately $2,700,000 of revenue and $400,000 of pre-tax income in 2008.

As a result of the Company’s existing commitments and the downturn in the residential real estate market, the Company expects to use its resources conservatively in 2009.  Anticipated cash flow from operations, existing loans, refinanced or extended loans, asset sales, and new financing are expected to meet financial commitments for the next twelve months.  However, there are no assurances that these funds will be generated.  Even without refinancing or extending existing loans, the Company has sufficient liquidity to satisfy its obligations as they come due, with the exception of the Puerto Rico debt discussed above.

Interim Financial Reporting

These unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The Company has no items of other comprehensive income for any of the periods presented. In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim period. While management believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Net income (loss) per share is calculated based on weighted average shares outstanding.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, and accompanying notes and disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are prepared using management's best judgment after considering past and current events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Sales, Profit Recognition and Cost Capitalization
 
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” community development land sales are recognized at closing only when sufficient down payments have been obtained, possession and other attributes of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, and ACPT has no significant continuing involvement.  Under the provisions of SFAS 66, related to condominium sales, revenues and costs are to be recognized when construction is beyond the preliminary stage, the buyer is committed to the extent of being unable to require a refund except for non-delivery of the unit, sufficient units in the project have been sold to ensure that the property will not be converted to rental property, the sales proceeds are collectible and the aggregate sales proceeds and the total cost of the project can be reasonably estimated.  Accordingly we recognize revenues and costs upon settlement with the homebuyer which does not occur until after we receive use and occupancy permits for the building.
 
The costs of developing the land are allocated to our land assets and charged to cost of sales as the related inventories are sold using the relative sales value method which rely on estimated costs and sales values.   In accordance with SFAS No. 67 "Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects", the costs of acquiring and developing land are allocated to these assets and charged to cost of sales as the related inventories are sold. Within our homebuilding operations, the costs of acquiring the land and construction of the condominiums are allocated to these assets and charged to cost of sales as the condominiums are sold.  The cost of sales is determined by the percentage of completion method.  The Company considers interest expense on all debt available for capitalization to the extent of average qualifying assets for the period.  Interest specific to the construction of qualifying assets, represented primarily by our recourse debt, is first considered for capitalization.  To the extent qualifying assets exceed debt specifically identified, a weighted average rate including all other debt is applied.  Any excess interest is reflected as interest expense.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Adjustments to Assets Held for Sale
 
ACPT carries its rental properties, homebuilding inventory, land and development costs at the lower of cost or fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."  For real estate assets such as our rental properties which the Company plans to hold and use, which includes property to be developed in the future, property currently under development and real estate projects that are completed or substantially complete, we evaluate whether the carrying amount of each of these assets will be recovered from their undiscounted future cash flows arising from their use and eventual disposition.  If the carrying value were to be greater than the undiscounted future cash flows, we would recognize an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount is not recoverable.  Our estimates of the undiscounted operating cash flows expected to be generated by each asset are performed on an individual project basis and based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties, including, among others, demand for apartment units, competition, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate and complete each project.
 
       Assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are not depreciated or amortized while classified as held for sale. Fair value of asets held for sale is based on estimated future cash flows, which includes expected proceeds to be received. ACPT recognizes a loss for any initial or subsequent write-down to fair value less costs to sell and recognizes a gain for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell, up to the cumulative loss previously recognized. During the first quarter of 2009, ACPT recognized a loss on write-down to fair value less cost to sell of $750,000 related to the revaluation of the Baltimore properties. Subsequent to the first quarter but prior to the issuance of the quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2009, the Company ceased negotiations with the one buyer who was intent to purchase multiple properties due to excessive re-trading. Accordingly, the broker is now looking to individual buyers with compressed pricing for the properties that were grouped together as a disposal group as of December 31, 2008. As a result, the Company revised its estimated sales values determined though discussions with our broker, which represent Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy in SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, and an asset write-down was required to further reduce the carrying values of the Baltimore properties to their estimated fair market value less costs to sell.
       
The Company evaluates, on an individual project basis, whether the carrying value of its substantially completed real estate projects, such as our homebuilding inventory that are to be sold, will be recovered based on the fair value less cost to sell.  If the carrying value were to be greater than the fair value less costs to sell, we would recognize an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount is not recoverable.  Our estimates of the fair value less costs to sell are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties, including, among others, comparable sales, demand for commercial and residential lots and competition.  The Company performed similar reviews for land held for future development and sale considering such factors as the cash flows associated with future development expenditures.  Should this evaluation indicate that an impairment has occurred, the Company will record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the historical cost over fair value less costs to sell.  There were no impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 related to its completed real estate projects.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, unrestricted deposits with financial institutions and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash and escrow deposits include funds held in restricted escrow accounts used for maintenance and capital improvements with the approval of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and/or the State Finance Agency.  The account also includes tenant security deposits as well as deposits collected within our homebuilding operations as well as funds in an escrow account that are restricted for the repayment of the Charles County bonds.
 
As of March 31, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19,595,000 and $10,869,000 in restricted cash.  Included in the Company’s cash and cash equivalents is $10,962,000 of cash located within multifamily apartment entities, over which the Company does not have direct control.  Cash flow from our consolidated apartment properties whose mortgage loans are insured by the Federal Housing Authority ("FHA"), or financed through the housing agencies in Maryland, Virginia or Puerto Rico (the "Financing Agencies,") are subject to guidelines and limits established by the apartment partnerships' regulatory agreements with HUD and the State Financing Agencies.  For two of our Puerto Rico partnerships, the regulatory agreements also require that if cash from operations exceeds the allowable cash distributions, the surplus must be deposited into restricted escrow accounts held by the mortgagee and controlled by HUD or the applicable Financing Agency.

Depreciable Assets and Depreciation

The Company's operating real estate is stated at cost and includes all costs related to acquisitions, development and construction.  The Company makes assessments of the useful lives of our real estate assets for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation expense to reflect on our income statement on an annual basis. The assessments, all of which are judgmental determinations, are as follows:

·  
Buildings and improvements are depreciated over five to forty years using the straight-line or double declining balance methods;
·  
Furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated over five to seven years using the straight-line method;
·  
Leasehold improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the lesser of the life of the lease or their estimated useful life; and
            ● 
Maintenance and other repair costs are charged to operations as incurred.

Impact of Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
 
        In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, except for share-based payments under SFAS No. 123(R). We adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities and for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are re-measured at least annually effective January 1, 2008; the adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In accordance with the FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) SFAS No. 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157”, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 for all other nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities effective January 1, 2009 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
        On December 4, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51" ("SFAS 160").  SFAS 160 replaces the concept of minority interest with noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries.  Noncontrolling interests are now reported as a component of equity in the consolidated statement of financial position.  Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests will continue to be reported as a part of consolidated earnings; however, SFAS 160 requires that income attributable to both controlling and noncontrolling interests be presented separately on the face of the consolidated income statement.  In addition, SFAS 160 provides that when losses attributable to noncontrolling interests exceed the noncontrolling interest’s basis, losses continue to be attributed to the noncontrolling interest as opposed to being absorbed by the consolidating entity.  SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively.   The Company adopted SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009.  The effect of adoption was a reclassification of Minority Interest, historically shown in liabilities, to a new line item, Noncontrolling Interests, included in shareholders’ equity, and the reclassification of Minority Interest from Retained Earnings as it represented distributions and losses in excess of basis.  See Note 4 for further information regarding the effect of adoption of SFAS 160.

On December 4, 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”).  This statement changes the accounting for acquisitions specifically eliminating the step acquisition model, changing the recognition of contingent consideration from being recognized when it is probable to being recognized at the time of acquisition, disallowing the capitalization of transaction costs and delays when restructurings related to acquisitions can be recognized.  The Company adopted SFAS 141R on January 1, 2009 and did not have a material impact.
 
In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8 Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities.  This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, to require public entities to provide additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets.  It also amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, to require public enterprises, including sponsors that have a variable interest in a variable interest entity, to provide additional disclosures about their involvement with variable interest entities. See Note 5 for the required disclosures.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”). FSP FAS 157-4 provides additional guidance for determining the fair value of assets and liabilities when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP FAS 157-4 also provides guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate an observed transaction used to determine fair value is not orderly and, therefore, is not indicative of fair value. FSP FAS 157-4 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this FSP will have a material impact on its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This FSP expands the fair value disclosure requirements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to include interim periods, and amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require these disclosures in summarized financial information in interim reporting periods. This FSP is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted under certain circumstances.  We do not anticipate this FSP will have a material effect on our financial statements.

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE ENTITIES

The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated real estate entities that are not considered variable interest entities under FIN 46(R) in accordance with SOP 78-9 "Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures" and APB Opinion No. 18 "The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock".  For entities that are considered variable interest entities under FIN 46(R), the Company performs an assessment to determine the primary beneficiary of the entity as required by FIN 46(R) based on a probability weighted cash flow analysis.  The Company accounts for variable interest entities in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary and does not bear a majority of the risk of expected loss in accordance with the equity method of accounting.
 
Apartment Partnerships

The unconsolidated apartment partnerships as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 included Brookside Gardens Limited Partnership (“Brookside”) and Lakeside Apartments Limited Partnership (“Lakeside”) that collectively represent 110 rental units.  We have determined that these two entities are variable interest entities under FIN 46(R).  However, the Company is not required to consolidate the partnerships due to the fact that the Company is not the primary beneficiary and does not bear the majority of the risk of expected losses.  The Company holds an economic interest in Brookside and Lakeside but, as a general partner, we have significant influence over operations of these entities that is disproportionate to our economic ownership.  In accordance with SOP 78-9 and APB No. 18, these investments are accounted for under the equity method.  The Company is exposed to losses consisting of our net investment, loans and unpaid fees for Brookside of $242,000 and $231,000 and for Lakeside of $148,000 and $165,000 as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  All amounts are fully reserved and, accordingly, represented zero of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated real estate entities for the periods presented.  Pursuant to the partnership agreement for Brookside, the Company, as general partner, is responsible for providing operating deficit loans to the partnership in the event that it is not able to generate sufficient cash flows from its operating activities.  The Company’s involvement with Brookside and Lakeside has not had a material affect on the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.

Commercial Partnerships

The Company holds a limited partner interest in a commercial property in Puerto Rico that it accounts for under the equity method of accounting.  ELI, S.E. ("ELI"), is a partnership formed for the purpose of constructing a building for lease to the State Insurance Fund of the Government of Puerto Rico.  ACPT contributed the land in exchange for $700,000 and a 27.82% ownership interest in the partnership's assets, equal to a 45.26% interest in cash flow generated by the thirty-year lease of the building.

Land Development/Homebuilding Joint Ventures

In October 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Surrey Homes, LLC (“Surrey Homes”) to contribute $2,000,000 over the next year in exchange for a 50% ownership interest of the Series A Units.  During the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, ACPT contributed $1,000,000 with the remainder to be contributed during the second and third quarters of 2009.  Surrey Homes’ business model is focused on providing affordable quality homes with the lowest ongoing cost of maintenance through energy efficiency and other green initiatives.  Surrey Homes is establishing itself as a low overhead, lot option home builder.

We have determined that our investment in Surrey Homes is a variable interest entity under FIN 46(R); however, we are not required to consolidate the partnership as the Company is not the primary beneficiary and does not bear the majority of the risk of expected losses.  In accordance with SOP 78-9 and APB No. 18, this investment is accounted for under the equity method, and as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, represented $935,000 and $489,000 of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated real estate entities, respectively.  The Company is exposed to total losses consisting of our cumulative initial investment of $1,000,000.  Other than funding the equity investment, the Company’s involvement in Surrey Homes has not materially affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
 
The following table summarizes the financial data and principal activities of the unconsolidated real estate entities, which the Company accounts for under the equity method.  The information is presented to segregate the apartment partnerships from the commercial partnerships as well as our 50% ownership interest in the land development joint venture and homebuilding operation, which are all accounted for as “investments in unconsolidated real estate entities” on the balance sheet.

a.  
As of March 31, 2009, $26,835,000 of the community development recourse debt is owed to Charles County Commissioners and relates to the general obligation bonds issued by the Charles County government, with 15 year amortization of maturities with the earliest in June, 2019, as described in detail under the heading "Financial Commitments" in Note 6.  As of March 31, 2009, the Company has a receivable balance related to the bonds of $3,776,000.
b.  
On April 14, 2006, the Company closed a three year, $14,000,000 revolving acquisition and development loan (“the Revolver”) secured by a first lien deed of trust on property located in St. Charles, Maryland.  During the first quarter of 2009, the Company renegotiated the terms of the agreement.  The loan bears interest at Prime plus 1.25% (4.5% at March 31, 2009) and was set to mature on April 14, 2009 but has been extended to March 31, 2010.  As of March 31, 2009, $4,371,000 was outstanding on the Revolver.
c.  
Land Development Associates, S.E (“LDA”) has a $10,000,000 revolving line of credit facility that bears interest at a fluctuating rate equivalent to the LIBOR Rate plus 225 basis points (3.51% as of March 31, 2009) and matures on August 31, 2009.  The facility is to be used to fund the development of infrastructure of Parque Escorial and Parque El Comandante.  The outstanding balance of this facility on March 31, 2009, was $5,207,000.
d.  
On April 2, 2008, the Company secured a two-year, $3,600,000 construction loan for the construction of a commercial restaurant/office building within the O’Donnell Lake Restaurant Park.  The facility is secured by the land along with any improvements constructed and bears interest at Wall Street Journal published Prime Rate (3.25% at March 31, 2009).  At the end of the two-year construction period, the Company may convert the loan to a 5-year permanent loan, amortized over a 30 year period at a fixed interest rate to be determined.  As of March 31, 2009, $3,249,000 was outstanding under this facility leaving $351,000 available to fund completion of the building.
e.  
The general recourse debt outstanding as of March 31, 2009, is made up of various capital leases outstanding within our U.S. and Puerto Rico operations, as well as installment loans for vehicles and other miscellaneous equipment.
f.  
The non-recourse debt related to the investment properties is collateralized by the multifamily rental properties and the office building in Parque Escorial.  As of March 31, 2009, approximately $73,366,000 of this debt is secured by the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") or the Maryland Housing Fund.
g.  
On May 12, 2008, IGP agreed to provide a fixed charge and debt service guarantee related to the Escorial Office Building I, Inc (“EOB”) mortgage.  The fixed charge and debt service guarantee requires IGP to contribute capital in cash in such amounts required to cause EOB to comply with the related financial covenants.  The guarantee will remain in full force until EOB has complied with the financial covenants for four consecutive quarters.

The Company’s loans contain various financial, cross collateral, cross default, technical and restrictive provisions.  As of March 31, 2009, the Company is in compliance with all but one of its financial covenants and the other provisions of its loan agreements.  As of March 31, 2009, the Company failed to meet the Minimum Net Worth restriction at the ACPT level as tangible net worth was $354,000.  The Company has received a waiver of this covenant requirement through March 31, 2010.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Financial Commitments

Pursuant to an agreement reached between ACPT and the Charles County Commissioners in 2002, the Company agreed to accelerate the construction of two major roadway links to the Charles County (the "County") road system.  As part of the agreement, the County agreed to issue general obligation public improvement bonds (the “Bonds”) to finance $20,000,000 of this construction guaranteed by letters of credit provided by Lennar Corporation (“Lennar”) as part of a residential lot sales contract for 1,950 lots in Fairway Village.  The Bonds were issued in three installments with the final $6,000,000 installment issued in March 2006.  The Bonds bear interest rates ranging from 4% to 8%, for a blended lifetime rate for total Bonds issued to date of 5.1%, and call for semi-annual interest payments and annual principal payments and mature in 15 years.  Under the terms of Bond repayment agreements between the Company and the County, the Company is obligated to pay interest and principal to the County based on the full amount of the Bonds; as such, the Company recorded the full amount of the debt and a receivable from the County representing the remaining Bond proceeds to be advanced to the Company as major infrastructure development within the project occurs.  As part of the agreement, the Company will pay the County a monthly payment equal to one-sixth of the semi-annual interest payments and one-twelfth of the annual principal payment.  The County and the Lennar agreement require ACPT to fund an escrow account from lot sales to be used to repay the principal portion of these Bonds.

In August 2005, the Company signed a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") with the Charles County Commissioners regarding a land donation that is now the site of a minor league baseball stadium and entertainment complex.  Under the terms of the MOU, the Company donated 42 acres of land in St. Charles to the County on December 31, 2005.  The Company also agreed to expedite off-site utilities, storm-water management and road construction improvements that will serve the entertainment complex and future portions of St. Charles so that the improvements will be completed concurrently with the entertainment complex.  In return, the County agreed to issue $12,000,000 of general obligation bonds to finance the infrastructure improvements.  In March 2006, $4,000,000 of bonds were issued for this project, with an additional $3,000,000 issued in both March 2007 and March 2008 and $2,000,000 in March 2009.  These bonds bear interest rates ranging from 4.9% to 8%, for a blended rate of 5.3%, call for semi-annual interest payments and annual principal payments, and mature in 15 years.  The terms of the bond repayment agreement are similar to those noted above.  In addition, the County agreed to issue an additional 100 school allocations a year to St. Charles commencing with the issuance of bonds.

During 2006, the Company reached an agreement with the County whereby the Company receives interest payments on any undistributed bond proceeds held in escrow by the County.  The agreement covers the period from July 1, 2005 through the last draw made by the Company.

As of March 31, 2009, ACPT has purchased $18,089,000 of surety bonds for the completion of land development projects with Charles County with maturity dates ranging from June 13, 2009 to May 14, 2010; substantially all of which are for the benefit of the Charles County Commissioners.

Consulting Agreements and Severance Arrangements

ACPT entered into a consulting agreement with Carlos Rodriguez, the former Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer for IGP, a wholly owned Puerto Rico subsidiary of ACPT, effective July 1, 2008.  Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the Company will pay Mr. Rodriguez $100,000 per year through June 2010.  Payments under this consulting agreement were fully accrued as of December 31, 2008.

On October 1, 2008, Mr. Edwin L. Kelly notified the Company that he would retire as the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer effective December 1, 2008.  Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Kelly received a severance payment of $1,500,000.  The Company has also agreed to enter into a consulting agreement with Mr. Kelly providing compensation for his services at a rate of $10,000 per month, for an initial term of one year.  Payments under this consulting agreement were fully accrued as of December 31, 2008.

Gleneagles Construction Contract
 
          On January 28, 2009, the Company completed the initial closing of a 6.9 percent, $25,045,000 non-recourse construction loan to fund the construction costs for a new apartment property in St. Charles' Fairway Village.  As of March 31, 2009, the balance on the loan was $4,019,000.  The Company has entered into a construction contract of $18,291,000 to complete this property.
        
Guarantees

ACPT and its subsidiaries typically provide guarantees for another subsidiary's loans. In many cases more than one company guarantees the same debt. Since all of these companies are consolidated, the debt or other financial commitment made by the subsidiaries to third parties and guaranteed by ACPT, is included within ACPT's consolidated financial statements.  As of March 31, 2009, ACPT has guaranteed $39,663,000 of such debt.  The guarantees will remain in effect until the debt service is fully repaid by the respective borrowing subsidiary.  The terms of the debt service guarantees outstanding range from one to nine years.   We do not expect any of these guarantees to impair the individual subsidiary or the Company's ability to conduct business or to pursue its future development plans.
 
Legal Matters

There have been no material changes to the legal proceedings previously disclosed in our Annual Report on the Form 10-K for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
 
Due to the inherent uncertainties of the judicial process, we are unable to either predict the outcome of or estimate a range of potential loss associated with certain matters discussed above.  While we intend to vigorously defend these matters and believe we have meritorious defenses available to us, there can be no assurance that we will prevail.  If these matters are not resolved in our favor, we believe we are insured for potential losses unless otherwise stated.  Any amounts that exceed our insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The Company and/or its subsidiaries have been named as defendants, along with other companies, in tenant-related lawsuits.  The Company carries liability insurance against these types of claims that management believes meets industry standards.  To date, payments made to the plaintiffs of the settled cases were covered by our insurance policy.  The Company believes it has strong defenses to these ordinary course claims, and intends to continue to defend itself vigorously in these matters.

In the normal course of business, ACPT is involved in various pending or unasserted claims. In the opinion of management, these are not expected to have a material impact on the financial condition or future operations of ACPT.

(A)  
Management and Other Services

The Company provides management and other support services to its unconsolidated subsidiaries and other affiliated entities in the normal course of business.  The fees earned from these services are typically collected on a monthly basis, one month in arrears.  Receivables are unsecured and due on demand.  Certain partnerships experiencing cash shortfalls have not paid timely.  Generally, receivable balances of these partnerships are fully reserved, until satisfied or the prospect of collectibility improves.  The collectibility of management fee receivables is evaluated quarterly.  Any increase or decrease in the reserves is reflected accordingly as additional bad debt expenses or recovery of such expenses.

(B)  
Other

Other transactions with related parties are as follows:
1)  
Represents fees paid to James J. Wilson pursuant to a consulting and retirement agreement.  At Mr. Wilson's request, payments are made to Interstate Waste Technologies, Inc. (“IWT”).
2)  
Represents fees paid to Thomas J. Shafer, a Trustee, pursuant to a consulting agreement.
3)  
A primary shareholder of the Company agreed in principle to provide the Company’s Chief Executive Officer with the economic benefit of 185,550 shares of their common stock as of October 1, 2008. According to SFAS 123(R), any share-based payments awarded to an employee of the reporting entity by a related party for services provided to the entity are share-based payment transactions under SFAS123(R) unless the transfer is clearly for a purpose other than compensation for services to the reporting entity.  Therefore, in essence, the economic interest holder makes a capital contribution to the reporting entity, and the reporting entity makes a share-based payment to its employee in exchange for services rendered.   The Company recognized $13,000 in compensation expense in the three months ended March 31, 2009 related to this grant.

INCOME TAXES

ACPT’s subsidiaries, ARMC, ALD and ARPT, are subject to federal and state income tax.  ACPT is subject to Puerto Rico income tax on its Puerto Rico source income.

The United States effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 50% and 22%, respectively.  The statutory rate is 40%.  The difference in the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the pre-tax loss during the three months ended March 31, 2009 was primarily due to accrued taxes and penalties on uncertain tax positions and the change in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.  The difference in the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the pre-tax loss during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was primarily due to  a relatively small net loss reported, the related benefit for which, was partially offset by accrued taxes and penalties on uncertain tax position

The effective tax rates on the Puerto Rico source income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 24%, and 33%, respectively.  The statutory rate is 29%.   The difference in the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the pre-tax income during the three months ended March 31, 2009, was primarily due to tax exempt income and the change in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance offset in part by deferred items for which no current benefit may be recognized and as a result of the pending sale, a basis adjustment to Company’s investment in the Puerto Rican apartment properties.  The difference in the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the pre-tax loss during the three months ended March 31, 2008, was primarily due to tax exempt income offset in part by the double taxation on the earnings of our wholly owned corporate subsidiary, ICP, and deferred items for which no current benefit may be recognized. 

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2009, was $14,359,000.  Included in the balance at March 31, 2009, were $46,000 of tax positions that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.  A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefit (in thousands) is as follows:

 
Unrecognized tax benefit at December 31, 2008
  $ 15,543  
Change attributable to tax positions taken during a prior period
    (1,184 )
Change attributable to tax positions taken during the current period
    -  
Decrease attributable to settlements with taxing authorities
    -  
Decrease attributable to lapse of statute of limitations
    -  
Unrecognized tax benefit at March 31, 2009
  $ 14,359  

In accordance with our accounting policy, we present accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions as a component of interest expense and accrued penalties as a component of income tax expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income.  Our Consolidated Statements of Income for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, included interest expense of $336,000 and $335,000, respectively and penalties of ($8,000) and $24,000, respectively.  Our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2009 and 2008, included accrued interest of $4,553,000 and $3,149,000, respectively and accrued penalties of $1,106,000 and $1,109,000, respectively.

The Company currently does not have any tax returns under audit by the United States Internal Revenue Service or the Puerto Rico Treasury Department.  However, the tax returns filed in the Unites States for the years ended December 31, 2005 through 2008 remain subject to examination.  For Puerto Rico, the tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2004 through 2008 remain subject to examination.  Within the next twelve months, the Company does not anticipate any payments related to settlement of any tax examinations.  There is a reasonable possibility within the next twelve months the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by $576,000 when the related statutes of limitations expire and certain payments are recognized as taxable income.

HELD FOR SALE ASSETS

A real estate investment held for sale is carried at the lower of its carrying amount or estimated fair value, less the cost of a potential sale.  Depreciation is suspended during the period the property is held for sale.  During the first quarter of 2009, the Company executed purchase agreements for the sale of three of the five U.S. apartment properties in Baltimore, Maryland for $29,200,000 (Owings Chase, Milford I and Milford II).  However, these agreements have been terminated due to excessive re-trading by the potential buyers.  The Company is in the process of working with their broker to identify new buyers for these properties.  Related to the other two Baltimore properties, Nottingham and Prescott, the Company has subsequently executed purchase agreements totaling $6,598,000.  The Company intends to sell all five of these properties and accordingly, believes that held for sale presentation is appropriate.
-19-

Also, in the first quarter of 2009, the Company executed a definitive agreement to sell the Puerto Rico apartment properties for $14,300,000.  The definitive agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including the ability of the purchaser to obtain financing, and we anticipate closing on the sale of these properties in the second or third quarter of 2009.  The assets, liabilities, and results of operations for IGP comprise the Puerto Rican Real Estate Operating segment.
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the carrying values of the Baltimore and Puerto Rican Properties’ assets and related liabilities have been classified as “held for sale” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2009, the major classes of assets included in assets held for sale are $72,747,000 in investments in real estate, $10,633,000 in restricted cash and escrow balances, and $3,504,000 in deferred charges and other assets.  Liabilities related to assets held for sale includes $107,454,000 in non-recourse debt.
 
In addition, the properties’ results of operations have been classified as “discontinued operations” for all periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations.  The following is a summary of the components of income from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.
