(Exact name of registrant as specified in its Charter) 1-11718 (Commission File No.) MARYLAND 36-3857664 (State or other jurisdiction (I.R.S. Employer of incorporation or organization) Identification No.) TWO NORTH RIVERSIDE PLAZA, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS 60606 (Address of principal executive offices) (Zip Code) (312) 279-1400 (Registrant's telephone number, including area code) ================================================================================

ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OF ASSETS Manufactured Home Communities, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have acquired or invested in 58 manufactured home communities ("Communities") and park model communities ("Resorts") during the period from January 1, 2004 through April 30, 2004. Of these communities, 30 were reported on Form 8-K dated March 2, 2004, and 28 were reported on Form 8-K dated March 3, 2004. The combined investment in these 58 properties was approximately $377.4 million.

MANUFACTURED HOME COMMUNITIES, INC. PROFORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS REQUIRED UNDER ITEM 7(b) OF FORM 8-K

MANUFACTURED HOME COMMUNITIES, INC. PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS UNAUDITED The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet presents the effect of the acquisition of ten properties from Diversified Investments, Inc. ("Diversified"), the NHC Portfolio ("NHC Portfolio"), and O'Connell's, Spring Gulch, Paradise, Twin Lakes, and Lakeside ("Other 2004 Acquisitions"). The Pro Forma also includes the investment of $29.7 million in preferred equity interest in six entities controlled by Diversified Investments, Inc. and the $1.4 million investment in the Diversified entities managing these properties (the "Mezzanine Investments"), the $1.4 million investment in the Lake Myers, Pine Haven, Twin Mills and Plymouth Rock joint ventures ("Joint Ventures"), the payment of a one-time special distribution of $8.00 per share, and an additional borrowing of $35 million under the Company's line of credit. Related to the acquisition of the NHC portfolio, beginning in 1996, a series of partnerships were formed between "NHC" entities and "PAMI" (the former General Partner of NHC) entities. A trial on all claims between NHC and PAMI, including whether NHC had the authority to consummate the transaction with the Company was held on April 15 and 16, 2004. The Company continues to believe in the merit of NHC's claims and defenses. Under the terms and conditions of the partnership agreements, $69 million was paid to acquire the PAMI entities' interests. Principals of the NHC entities will continue to operate the properties under a management agreement with the Company and maintain a minority equity position in the new entity. The existing dispute is related to the PAMI entities' desire to liquidate their investments. While the possibility of additional litigation and its attendant risks remain, we believe that providing liquidity to the NHC entities to acquire the PAMI interests may assist in resolving the dispute. The Company, after advice from its legal counsel, believes that there is substantial merit to its' position that the NHC Portfolio transaction is valid. Accordingly, the Company has treated the NHC Portfolio transaction as an acquisition in the financial statements. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 presents the effect of the following acquisitions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2003: Diversified, NHC, and the Other 2004 Acquisitions; and the income from the Mezzanine Investments and Joint Ventures. The following unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of future operations, nor the results of historical operations, had all the transactions occurred as described above on January 1, 2003. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Combined Statements of Revenue and Certain Expenses (included elsewhere herein).
