SCHEDULE TO

     This Amendment No. 2 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amended Statement”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Initial Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 21, 2004, by ARVP III Acquisition, L.P., a California limited partnership (the “Purchaser”), Atria Senior Living Group, Inc. (“Atria”) and ARV Assisted Living, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ARV,” and together with Atria and the Purchaser, the “Filing Persons”), as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 to the Initial Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Filing Parties with the SEC on March 4, 2004 (“Amendment No. 1”). ARV, which is wholly-owned by Atria, is the general partner of the Purchaser. This Amended Statement is being filed in connection with the definitive Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement filed with the SEC on the date hereof by the Filing Persons (the “Offer to Purchase”). Because the Offer to Purchase is also serving as a consent solicitation statement by the Purchaser, it has also been filed as part of the amended definitive proxy statement filed on the date hereof on Schedule 14A by the Filing Persons. This Statement relates to the contemplated offer (the “Offer”) by the Purchaser for all of the outstanding limited partnership units (the “Units”) of American Retirement Villas Properties III, L.P., a California limited partnership. Because the transactions contemplated by the Offer to Purchase would be a Rule 13e-3 transaction, this Amended Statement is also being filed on the date hereof in compliance with that rule.

     In accordance with the rules of the SEC, the Filing Persons are amending and supplementing the Initial Statement, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1, by providing the information set forth below. The information set forth in the Offer to Purchase (including all schedules and annexes thereto) is hereby incorporated by reference herein in answer to the items of this Amended Statement.
