NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.      Background and Basis of Presentation:

  Background
CP Limited Partnership is a limited partnership and was formed by Chateau Communities, Inc., a real estate investment trust, as a general partner and Chateau Estates, as the initial limited partner, on September 16, 1993. We are engaged in owning and operating manufactured housing community properties. As of September 30, 2002, our portfolio consisted of 207 properties, containing an aggregate of 68,842 homesites and 1,359 park model/RV sites, located in 32 states. We also fee manage 37 properties, containing an aggregate of 8,075 homesites.

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  In our opinion, the interim financial statements presented herein reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary to fairly present the interim financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

  Basis of Presentation -
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of CP Limited and our subsidiaries. Chateau and ROC Communities, Inc. are general partners. As of September 30, 2002, Chateau owned on a combined basis, an 83 percent general partner interest. Pursuant to the terms of the operating partnership agreement, we are required to reimburse Chateau for the net expenses incurred by Chateau. Amounts paid on behalf of Chateau by us are reflected in the statement of income as general and administrative expenses. The balance sheet of Chateau as of September 30, 2002 is identical to our accompanying balance sheet, except as follows:

  we are entitled to 100% of the CSI cash flow and economics; however, we account for our investment in CSI using the equity method of accounting, since we do not own any of its voting common stock.

  Reclassifications –
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

2.      Acquisition of CWS:

  On August 3, 2001 we purchased CWS Communities Trust (“CWS”), a private real estate investment trust for $552 million, consisting of $323 million in cash (including the retirement of $20 million in debt), $151 million in assumed liabilities, 2,040,878 OP Units (valued at $30.935 per OP Unit) and $9.9 million in 7.5% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2012 (the “7.5% Notes”). The portfolio, located in 11 states, consisted of 46 manufactured home communities with approximately 16,600 homesites and 1,518 expansion sites and three RV communities with 431 RV sites. We financed the cash portion of this transaction primarily through borrowings under a $323 million bridge facility (the “Acquisition Facility”). A portion of the Acquisition Facility was paid in 2001 and 2002 and the remainder was refinanced in May 2002.

  The following unaudited pro forma income statement information for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 has been prepared as if the CWS Acquisition and related transactions had occurred on January 1, 2001. In addition, the pro forma information is presented as if the disposition of certain CWS properties by us in 2001 had occurred on January 1, 2001. The pro forma income statement information is not necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the CWS Acquisition had been consummated on January 1, 2001.
