PROMISE TO PAY:
RRF Limited Partnership (“Borrower”) promises to pay
Rare Earth Financial, L.L.C. (“Lender”), or order, the

of each advance. Interest shall be calculated from the date of each
advance until repayment of each advance.
PAYMENT:
Borrower will pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding
principal plus all accrued unpaid interest on March 1, 2008. In
addition, Borrower will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued
unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning on April 1,
2006, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same
day of each month thereafter. Payments shall be applied first to
any charges or sums (other than principal and interest) due and
payable by Borrower, second to accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal balance hereof, and then to further reduce the principal
balance of this promissory note (“note”).
INTEREST RATE:
The interest rate of this note shall be fixed at 7.0% per
annum.
INTEREST
CALCULATION: The annual interest rate for this note is computed on
a 360-day year.
COLLATERAL:
Borrower acknowledges that this note is secured by 49.0% of the
units held by RRF Limited Partnership in Tucson Saint Mary’s
Suite Hospitality L.L.C.
LINE OF CREDIT:
This note evidences a revolving line of credit. Advances under this
note may be requested orally by Borrower or as provided in this
paragraph. All oral requests shall be confirmed in writing on the
day of the request. All communications are to be directed to the
Lender’s office shown above. The following persons are
authorized to request advances on the line of credit on behalf of
the Borrower: Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President.
Borrower agrees to be liable for all sums advanced in accordance
with the instructions of the authorized persons. Lender will have
no obligation to advance funds under this note if: (A) Borrower is
in default under this note; or (B) Borrower ceases doing business
or is insolvent.
PREPAYMENT: At
any time during the term of this note, Borrower may prepay all or
part of the unpaid principal amount of the note, together with any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other sums or charges
due hereunder without any prepayment premium or penalty.
SUBORDINATION:
The Lender agrees that (i) the indebtedness evidenced by this note
is and shall be subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and
in the manner provided herein, to the prior payment in full of any
indebtedness under the Trust's loans or lines of credit, whether
heretofore or hereafter made or entered into, with commercial banks
or other entities engaged principally in the business of lending
money (each a "Senior Lender"), and (ii) the security interest
referred to above in the paragraph titled "Collateral" is and shall
be subject and subordinate in all respects to any liens, terms,
covenants and conditions of any secured loans or lines of credit
with Senior Lenders, whether heretofore or hereafter made or
entered into, and to all advances thereunder, whether heretofore or
hereafter made pursuant to such loans or lines of credit. The
Lender agrees that during the term of this note it will not
commence, or
join with any
other creditor in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings with respect to
the Borrower, without each Senior Lender's prior written
consent.
Borrower hereby
waives for itself and, to the fullest extent not prohibited by
applicable law, for any subsequent lienor, any right Borrower may
now or hereafter have under the doctrine of marshaling of assets or
otherwise which would require Lender to proceed against certain
property before proceeding against any other property.
DEFAULT:
Borrower hereby agrees that in the event part of the principal or
interest is not paid when due or the entire note is not paid when
due, then the rate of interest on this note shall, at the election
of Lender upon ten (10) days prior written notice, be increased to
nine and 00/100 percent (9.00%) per annum or the highest rate for
which the parties may agree under applicable law, whichever is less
(the “Default Rate”). Borrower shall be obligated
thereafter to pay interest on the then unpaid principal balance of
the note at the Default Rate, both before and after judgment, to be
computed from the due date through and including the date of actual
receipt of the overdue payment, whether a payment of interest or
the entire note. Nothing herein shall be construed as an agreement
or privilege to extend the date of the payment or any installment
