Other Events.

On ~~December~~January 311, ~~2009~~2010, Tarragon Corporation (“Tarragon”) and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed their unaudited monthly operating reports for the period ~~October~~November 1, 2009 ~~through~~ ~~October~~through 31November 30, 2009 with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (the “Bankruptcy Court”). Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K contains the unaudited monthly operating report of Tarragon for the period ~~October~~November 1, 2009 through ~~October~~November 3130, 2009 (the “Monthly Operating Report”) as filed with the Bankruptcy Court.

As previously announced, it is not expected that there will be any distribution to Tarragon equity holders in conjunction with Tarragon's bankruptcy cases pending before the Bankruptcy Court. In this regard, the Debtors’ proposed plan of reorganization currently on file with the Bankruptcy Court does not provide for any distribution to Tarragon equity holders.

The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period and has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court and the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101-1532 (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The financial information contained in the Monthly Operating Report is preliminary and unaudited and does not purport to show the financial statements of any of the Debtors in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and, therefore, may exclude items required by GAAP, such as certain reclassifications, eliminations, accruals and disclosure items. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on the Monthly Operating Report. The Monthly Operating Report may be subject to revision. The Monthly Operating Report is in a format required by the Bankruptcy Court and the Bankruptcy Code and should not be used for investment purposes. The information in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.
