                               CONSENT ORDER

   On November 20, 2000, the United States of America filed this action
   on behalf of Betty M. Walters, pursuant to Section 812(o) of the Fair
   Housing Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §3601 et seq. ("the Act").
   Defendants own and/or manage residential rental property that is
   funded and regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural
   Development Program (formerly the Farmers Home Administration or
   "FmHA"), the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
   (hereinafter "HUD") and the State of Texas through its Department of
   Housing and Community Affairs. The United States alleges, inter alia,
   that Defendants terminated Ms. Watlers' employment as a property
   manager for Defendant Brazoria Manor Apartments on January 28, 1999,
   in retaliation for helping Frances Griffin assert her right to fair
   housing. Specifically, the United States alleges that Defendants fired
   Ms. Walters in retaliation for Ms. Walters' cooperation in the
   investigation of a previously filed housing discrimination complaint.
   The United States further alleges that Defendants' conduct violated 42
   U.S.C. §3617. The Defendants have denied and do deny all of the claims
   and allegations of both the United States and Ms. Walters.

   The parties desire to avoid protracted and costly litigation.
