OTHER DISCLOSURES

ILLINOIS INSURED MORTGAGE PILOT PROGRAM TRUST

As of June 30, 1998 there were three properties in the Illinois Insured Mortgage Pilot Program Trust (Trust). The Trust held the mortgage loans on the properties as underlying collateral for the State's investment in the program. One of the properties was a commercial property, Park Plaza Shopping Center (see subsequent events below). The other two properties were hotels, the Renaissance in Springfield and the Holiday Inn in Collinsville.

The recorded value on the financial statements for these investments was $8,257,000 as of June 30, 1998 and the loan balance was $31,726,000.

The mortgage loans on the three properties were considered nonperforming assets. Accrued interest receivable at June 30, 1998 for the nonperforming assets approximated $16,281,000. Interest on nonperforming assets is recognized when collected, and therefore has not been recorded on the financial statements.

The Treasurer's outstanding investments in the Illinois Insured Mortgage Pilot Program which have been secured by hotel properties have been the subject of litigation. The outcome of this litigation is not presently determinable.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Park Plaza Shopping Center was sold for $2,075,000 by the Trustee at a public auction held in May 1998. The closing on the property took place on July 2, 1998. The sale will be reflected in the year ended June 30, 1999 financial statements, as it occurred subsequent to June 30, 1998.

The State of Illinois issued $122,334,152 General Obligation College Savings Bonds, Series of November 1998, subsequent to June 30, 1998.

 

 

 

AUDITORS' OPINION

Our auditors state the June 30, 1998 financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and accountabilities and the statement of investment income of the Office of the Treasurer.
