(f) Statements; Adjustment of Payments. Within thirty (30)
days following the due date for each payment of Basic Interest, Maker shall,
upon the request of Payee, deliver to Payee a statement of operations of the

Interest for the preceding month, as well as (if requested by Payee) all data
reasonably necessary for the calculation of any such amounts. Maker shall keep
and maintain at all times full and accurate books of account and records
adequate to correctly reflect all such amounts. Such books and records shall be
available for at least five years after the end of the month to which they
relate. Payee shall have the right to inspect, copy and audit such books of
account and records during reasonable business hours, and upon prior reasonable
notice to Maker, for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of any payments made
on account of any interest payments made hereunder. The costs of any such audit
will be paid by Payee, except that Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and
expenses of any such audit which discloses that any amount properly payable by
Maker to Payee hereunder exceeded by five percent (5%) or more the amount
actually paid and initially reported by Maker as being payable with respect
thereto.
(g) Prorations of Cash Flow Contingent Interest. All interest
shall be equitably prorated on the basis of a 360-day year for any partial month
in which the term of the Loan commences or in which the Note is paid in full.
(h) Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest.
(i) Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest Defined.
Subject to Section 2(i) hereof, Maker shall pay to Payee, in addition to Pay
Rate Interest, Deferred Interest and Cash Flow Contingent Interest, at the time
or times and in the manner hereinafter described, an amount equal to ninety
percent (90%) of the Net Capital Proceeds resulting from, or determined at the
time of, any of the Triggering Events described below (collectively, "Capital
Proceeds Contingent Interest").
(ii) Events Triggering Payment of Net Capital
Proceeds. Subject to Section 2(i) hereof, Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest
shall be due and payable concurrently with the occurrence of each and every one
of the following events (collectively "Triggering Events", and individually, a
"Triggering Event"):

(A) Property Sale or Financing. The closing
of any Sale or refinancing of the Real Property (any such event is hereinafter
collectively referred to as a "Sale or Financing");
(B) Default Occurrence. The occurrence of
any Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Loan on account
thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to as a "Default Occurrence"); and
(C) Maturity Occurrence. The occurrence of
the Maturity Date (the "Maturity Occurrence").
(iii) Notice of Triggering Event: Time for Payment of
Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest. Maker shall notify Payee of the occurrence
of a Triggering Event, and shall pay Payee the full amount of any applicable
Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest which is payable in connection therewith,
as follows:
(A) In the case of any Sale or Financing or
the Maturity Occurrence, Maker shall give Payee written notice of any such
Triggering Event not less than forty-five (45) days before the date such
Triggering Event is to occur. Any Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest due Payee
on account of any Sale or Financing or the Maturity Occurrence shall be due and
payable to Payee within ninety (90) days of the date on which such Triggering
Event occurs.
(B) In the case of a Default Occurrence, no
notice of such a Triggering Event need be given by Maker. In such event, payment
of any and all Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest on account of the Default
Occurrence shall be immediately due and payable upon acceleration of the
maturity of the Loan.
(iv) Determination of Net Capital Proceeds. Net
Capital Proceeds resulting from a Triggering Event shall be determined as
follows:
(A) Net Capital Proceeds From Sale or
Financing. Except as provided in Section 2(h)(iv)(B) below, in the event of a
Sale or Financing, "Net Capital Proceeds" shall be the amount which is equal to:
(i) the Gross Capital Proceeds (as hereinafter defined) realized from the Real
Property minus (ii) the sum of: (aa) reasonable brokerage commissions (excluding
any payments to any affiliate of Maker to the extent such payments exceed those
which would have been due as commissions to a non-affiliate broker rendering
identical services), title insurance premiums, documentary transfer or stamp
taxes, mortgage taxes, environmental report fees, escrow fees and recording
charges, appraisal fees, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, and sales taxes,
in each case actually paid or payable by Maker (or Property Owner) in connection
with the Sale or Financing, (bb) all payments of principal, Basic Interest and
Cash Flow Contingent Interest payable to Payee on account of this Note from the
proceeds of such Sale or Financing, and (cc) an amount equal to all payments of
principal, interest and yield maintenance and/or defeasance fees and expenses
due and payable on any senior loans, if any (including, without limitation the
SAC Holding Senior Notes), made from the proceeds of such Sale or Financing. For
purposes of this Section 2(h), "Gross Capital Proceeds" shall mean the gross
proceeds of whatever form or
6
nature payable directly or indirectly to or for the benefit or account of Maker
in connection with such Sale or Financing, including, without limitation: cash,
the outstanding balance of any financing which will remain as a lien or
encumbrance against the Real Property or any portion thereof following such Sale
or Financing (but only in the case of a Sale, and not in the case of an
encumbrance), and the cash equivalent of the fair market value of any non-cash
consideration, including the present value of any promissory note received as
part of the proceeds of such Sale or Financing (valued at a market rate of
interest).
(B) Net Capital Proceeds In Connection With
a Default or Maturity Occurrence. In the event of a Default Occurrence or the
Maturity Occurrence when no Sale or Financing has occurred, the "Net Capital
Proceeds" shall equal: (i) the fair market value of the Real Property determined
as of the date of such Triggering Event in accordance with Section 2(h)(v)
below, minus (ii) the sum of (aa) the outstanding principal balance, together
with accrued but unpaid Basic Interest on this Note and (bb) the outstanding
principal balance of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the secured Real
Property debt.
(v) Determination of Fair Market Value. The fair
market value of the Real Property shall be determined for purposes of this Note
as follows:
(A) Partial Sale. In the event of a Sale of
a portion of the Real Property, Payee shall select an experienced and reputable
appraiser to prepare a written appraisal report of the fair market value of the
Real Property in accordance with clause (C) below, and the appraised fair market
value submitted to Payee by such appraiser shall be conclusive for purposes of
this Note.
(B) Other Occurrences. In all other
circumstances the fair market value of the Real Property shall be deemed to
equal the result of dividing the Net Cash Flow Before Debt Service for the
immediately preceding fiscal year by ten percent (10%). However, if the Net Cash
Flow Before Debt Service for the immediately preceding fiscal year has been
lowered because of unusually high Operating Expenses during such fiscal year the
fair market value of the Real Property may, at the option of the Maker be
determined by dividing by ten percent (10%) the mean average of the Net Cash
Flow Before Debt Service of the Real Property for the three immediately
preceding fiscal years of the Real Property.
(C) Appraisal Standards and Assumptions. In
making any determination by appraisal of fair market value, the appraiser(s)
shall assume that the improvements then located on the Real Property constitute
the highest and best use of the property. If the Triggering Event is a Sale or
Financing, the appraiser(s) shall take the sales price into account, although
such sales price shall not be determinative of fair market value. Each appraiser
selected hereunder shall be an independent MAI-designated appraiser with not
less than ten years' experience in commercial real estate appraisal in the
general geographical area where the Real Property is located.
(vi) Statement, Books and Records. With each payment
of Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest, Maker shall furnish to Payee a
statement setting forth Maker's calculation of
7
Net Capital Proceeds and Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest and shall provide
a detailed breakdown of all items necessary for such calculation. For a period
of five years after each payment of Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest, Maker
shall keep and maintain full and accurate books and records adequate to
correctly reflect each such item. Said books and records shall be available for
Payee's inspection, copying and audit during reasonable business hours following
reasonable notice for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of the payments made
on account of Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest. The costs of any such audit
will be paid by Payee, except that Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and
expenses of any such audit which discloses that any amount properly payable by
Maker to Payee hereunder exceeded by five percent (5%) or more the amount
actually paid and initially reported by maker as being payable with respect
thereto.
(viii) Negative Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Payee shall not be
responsible or liable in any respect to Maker or any other Person for any
reduction in the fair market value of the Real Property or for any contingency,
condition or occurrence that might result in a negative number for Capital
Proceeds Contingent Interest. If at any time it is calculated, Capital Proceeds
Contingent Interest shall be a negative amount, no Capital Proceeds Contingent
Interest shall at that time be payable to Payee, but Payee shall in no way be
liable for any such negative amount and there shall be no deduction or offset
for such negative amount at any time when Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest
shall be subsequently calculated.
(i) Limitation on Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest while
SAC Holding Senior Notes Remain Outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, in the event a Triggering Event takes place at any time while
all or any portion of the SAC Holding Senior Notes is outstanding, the payment
of any Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest on account of such occurrence shall
be deferred as hereinafter provided, and any amounts constituting Excess Sale
Proceeds or Excess Refinancing Proceeds under the SAC Notes Indenture related to
such occurrence shall be applied to redeem or repurchase the SAC Holding Senior
Notes, in accordance with the terms of the SAC Notes Indenture, it being agreed
that payment of Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest is subordinate to the
payment in full of the SAC Holding Senior Notes. Subject to the terms of the SAC
Notes Indenture and the PSA, Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest shall be paid
within five years of the occurrence of such Triggering Event.
3. Usury Savings Clause. The provisions of this Section 3 shall govern
and control over any inconsistent provision contained in this Note. The Payee
hereof shall never be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest hereon
(for purposes of this Section 3, the word "interest" shall be deemed to include
Basic Interest, Additional Interest and any other sums treated as interest under
applicable law governing matters of usury and unlawful interest), any amount in
excess of the Highest Lawful Rate (hereinafter defined) and, in the event the
Payee ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such
amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed a partial prepayment of
principal and shall be treated hereunder as such; and, if the principal of this
Note is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Maker. In
determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific
contingency, exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, Maker and the Payee shall, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any nonprincipal
payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest, (ii)
8
exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) spread the
total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of this Note;
provided, that if this Note is paid and performed in full prior to the end of
the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest received for the actual
period of existence hereof exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the Payee shall
refund to Maker the amount of such excess or credit the amount of such excess
against the principal of this Note, and, in such event, the Payee shall not be
subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging, or
receiving interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate.
4. Payments.
(a) Interest. Maker promises to pay to Payee Basic Interest
and Additional Interest the respective amounts, and at the respective times
provided in Section 2 hereinabove. No principal payments shall be due hereunder
except as required at the Maturity Date. Each payment of Basic Interest
(including without limitation, Deferred Interest) and Additional Interest shall
be payable in Phoenix, Arizona (or at any other place which Payee may hereafter
designate from time to time for such purpose in a notice duly given to Maker
hereunder), not later than noon, Pacific Standard Time, on the date due thereof;
and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been received by the
Payee on the next following business day. Whenever any payment to be made under
this Note shall be stated to be due on a date which is not a business day, the
due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding business day, and
interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.
(b) Principal. The principal amount of this Note, together
with all accrued but unpaid Interest, shall be due and payable upon the Maturity
Date.
(c) Late Payment Charges. If any amount of Interest, principal
or any other charge or amount which becomes due and payable under this Note is
not paid and received by the Payee within five business days after the date it
first becomes due and payable, Maker shall pay to the Payee hereof a late
payment charge in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the full amount of
such late payment, whether such late payment is received prior to or after the
expiration of the ten-day cure period set forth in Section 8(a). Maker
recognizes that in the event any payment hereunder (other than the principal
payment due upon Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise) is not
made when due, Payee will incur extra expenses in handling the delinquent
payment, the exact amount of which is impossible to ascertain, but that a charge
of five percent (5%) of the amount of the delinquent payment is a reasonable
estimate of the expenses reasonably anticipated to be so incurred.
(d) Prepayment. Maker shall have the right to prepay this
Note, without penalty, in whole or in part, at any time in Maker's discretion.
5. Representations and Warranties of Maker. Maker represents and
warrants to Payee, as of the date hereof, that:

the power and authority to execute and

deliver this Note and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby;

of its obligations under this Note do not and will not violate the articles of
incorporation or by-laws of Maker and will not violate, conflict with or
constitute a default under any agreement to which Maker is a party;
(c) Consents. No consents, approvals, filings, or notices of,
with or to any Person are required on the part of Maker in connection with
Maker's execution, delivery and performance of its obligations hereunder that
have not been duly obtained, made or given, as the case may be;
(d) Enforceability. The Note is valid, binding and enforceable
in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability hereof may be limited

(b) Inspection of Property; Books and Records; Discussions.
Keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries
in conformity with GAAP shall be made of all dealings and transactions in
relation to its business and activities and, upon reasonable notice, permit
representatives of Payee to examine and make abstracts from any of its books and
records at any reasonable time and as often as may reasonably be desired by
Payee and to discuss the business, operations, properties and financial and
other conditions of Maker with officers and employees of Maker and with its
independent certified public accountants. Such books and records shall be
available for at least five (5) years after the end of the relevant calendar
month. Payee shall have the right to inspect, copy and audit such books of
account and records at Payee's expense, during reasonable business hours, and
upon reasonable notice to Maker, for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of
any principal payments made. The costs of any such audit will be paid by Payee,
except that Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of any such audit
which discloses that any amount properly payable by Maker to Payee hereunder
exceeded by five percent (5%) or more the amount actually paid and initially
reported by Maker as being payable with respect thereto.
(c) Notices. Give prompt written notice to Payee of (i) any
claims, proceedings or disputes (whether or not purportedly on behalf of Maker)
against, or to Maker's knowledge, threatened or affecting Maker or the Real
Property which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on Maker (without in any way limiting the foregoing,
claims, proceedings, or disputes involving in the aggregate monetary amounts in
excess of $500,000 not fully covered by insurance shall be deemed to be
material). Additionally, Maker shall
10
give prompt written notice to Payee of any fact known to Maker which would
prohibit the making of any payment on or in respect of this Note, but failure to
give such notice shall not affect any subordination of this Note to the SAC
Holding Senior Notes as provided in Section 2(i) hereof or otherwise.

of Payee, incident to any amendments, waivers and renewals of this Note.

employed pursuant to an agreement (the "Property Management Agreement") approved
by the Payee. In no event shall the fees paid (or required to be paid) to the
Property Manager exceed six percent (6%) of Gross Receipts for any time period.
7. Negative Covenants. Maker hereby agrees that, as long as any
indebtedness under the Note remains unpaid, Maker shall not, directly or
indirectly:
(a) Indebtedness. Create, incur or assume any Indebtedness
except for: (i) the SAC Holding Senior Notes; (ii) the Loan; (iii) Maker's
contingent obligations under the secured Real Property debt (as the same may be
amended, extended or refinanced from time to time by mortgage loan, sale
leaseback transaction or otherwise) and the other senior mortgage loans extended
to subsidiaries or other affiliates of Maker (as the same may be amended,
extended or refinanced from time to time by mortgage loan, sale leaseback
transaction or otherwise); (iv) non-delinquent taxes; (v) unsecured debt
incurred in the ordinary course of business and (vi) other indebtedness owed to
Payee and its affiliates; provided, however, that for so long as the SAC Holding

subject to the terms of the PSA, immediately become and be due and payable in
full; and the Payee shall have and may exercise any and all rights and remedies
available at law or in equity.

offset that the Payee hereof may have under applicable law, upon the occurrence

immediately and without notice, to appropriate and apply to the payment of this

charges and amounts, if any) are paid in full, all payments (whether of
principal, Interest or other amounts) made by the undersigned or any other
person (including any guarantor) to the Payee hereof may be allocated by the

assigns, hereby waives diligence, presentment and demand for payment, protest,
notice of protest and nonpayment, dishonor and notice of dishonor, notice of the
intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and all other demands or
notices of any and every kind whatsoever (except only for any notice of default
expressly provided for in Section 8 of this Note) and the undersigned agrees
that this Note and any or all payments coming due hereunder may be extended from
time to time in the sole discretion of the Payee hereof without in any way
affecting or diminishing their liability hereunder.
(b) No extension of the time for the payment of this Note or
any payment becoming due or payable hereunder, which may be made by agreement

shall be deemed a waiver of such right or remedy, nor shall the exercise of any

Payee hereof promptly after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder to
exercise its right to declare the indebtedness remaining unmatured hereunder to
be immediately due and payable shall not constitute a waiver of such right while
such Event of Default continues nor a waiver of such right in connection with
any future Event of Default on the part of the undersigned.
