The address of the principal executive offices of InterGroup is 820 Moraga Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90049. Item 2. Identity and Background ----------------------- Josef A. Grunwald has served as a Director of InterGroup since 1987 and was named Vice-Chairman of the Board in January 2002. Mr. Grunwald is an international industrial, commercial and residential real estate developer. He also serves as Chairman of PDG N.V. (Belgium), a hotel management company, and President of I.B.E. Services S.A. (Belgium) an international trading company. Mr. Grunwald's business address is 820 Moraga Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90049. Mr. Grunwald is not, and has not been, subject to any of the proceedings requiring disclosure under sections (d) or (e) of this Item 2. Mr. Grunwald is a citizen of Belgium. Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration. -------------------------------------------------- The Stock Options reported herein were granted to Mr. Grunwald pursuant to InterGroup's 1998 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. Mr. Grunwald used personal funds to purchase the shares of Common Stock owned by him. -3- Item 4. Purposes of Transactions. ------------------------ On July 1, 2004, Mr. Grunwald received (along with other qualified directors of InterGroup) an automatic grant of stock options to purchase 3,000 shares of the Common Stock of InterGroup pursuant to the Company's 1998 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. The exercise price of the options is $11.75 per share, which was 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of grant. The options expire on June 30, 2014. That grant, coupled with the Company's buy-back of its Common Stock over the past several years, increased Mr. Grunwald's beneficial ownership position in InterGroup, for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, to more than 5%. The Common Stock and stock options owned by Mr. Grunwald were acquired, and are held, for investment purposes. It is expected that Mr. Grunwald will receive additional grants of stock options in the future pursuant to stock option plans adopted by the Company and approved by shareholders. Mr. Grunwald may, from time to time, purchase additional shares of Common Stock in the open market or in private transactions. Mr. Grunwald has no other plans or intentions that relate to or would result in the events set forth in Item 4 of the instructions to Schedule 13D. Item 5.

The total of those shares (139,567) represents approximately 5.5% of the Common Stock of InterGroup. Mr. Grunwald has the sole voting and disposition power over the shares of Common Stock owned by him.
