Dow Jones Description
We were originally formed to capitalize upon consolidation opportunities in the ownership of upscale golf courses throughout the United States. Golf Trust of America, Inc., referenced in this report as GTA, was incorporated in Maryland on November 8, 1996. We were structured as an UPREIT, which is a structure in which a public REIT acts as general partner of an operating partnership. Since 2002, we have not qualified as a REIT. Our interests in our golf courses were held through Golf Trust of America, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership that we control, and, in one instance, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Golf Trust of America, L.P. We refer to this partnership and its subsidiaries as our operating partnership. In this Annual Report, the term company, we or us generally includes GTA, the operating partnership and all of our subsidiaries. From 1997 through 1999, we acquired interests in 47 golf courses, including a security interest in the four golf courses at the Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club (the Resort), which is located near Tampa, Florida.
