     shall pay to Holder on Maturity Date an estimate of such amount.  Maker
     shall subsequently deliver to Holder an operating statement as required by
     Section 2(f) for the quarter in which the Maturity Date occurred, and an
     ------------
     appropriate adjustment of the estimated amount previously paid by Maker
     shall be made by the parties within ten (10) days after the operating
     statement for such final quarter is delivered to Holder.

          (h)  Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest.
               ------------------------------------

               (i)  Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest Defined. Maker shall
                    --------------------------------------------
     pay to Holder, in addition to Basic 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.  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)  Project Sale or Financing.  The closing of any Sale of
                         -------------------------
     the Project (any such event is hereinafter collectively referred to as a
     "Sale or Financing");
      -----------------
<PAGE>

                    (B)  Default Occurrence.  The occurrence of any Event of
                         ------------------
     Default which is not fully cured within the period of time, if any,
     expressly provided for cure herein, 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 or the prepayment by Maker (if permitted hereunder) of all principal
     and accrued Basic Interest (including, without limitation, Deferred
     Interest) and Cash Flow Contingent Interest outstanding on the Loan (the
     "Maturity Occurrence").
      -------------------

               (iii)  Notice of Triggering Event: Time for Payment of Capital
                      -------------------------------------------------------
     Proceeds Contingent Interest.  Maker shall notify Holder of the occurrence
     ----------------------------
     of a Triggering Event, and shall pay Holder 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 Holder written notice of any such Triggering
     Event not less than seventy five (75) days before the date such Triggering
     Event is to occur.  Any Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest due Holder on
     account of any Sale or Financing or the Maturity Occurrence shall be paid
     to Holder on the date 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.  Prior to the
                     -------------------------------------
     occurrence of a Triggering Event (or, in the event of a Default Occurrence,
     within a reasonable time thereafter), the "Net Capital Proceeds" resulting
                                                --------------------
     from such 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) either
      --------------------
     (x) the Gross Capital Proceeds (as hereinafter defined) realized from the
     Project, or (y) the fair market value of the Project determined pursuant to
     Section 2(h)(v) below, if Holder in its discretion requires such a
     ---------------
     determination, 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 taxes, escrow fees and recording charges, appraisal
     fees, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, and sales taxes (if any), in
<PAGE>
     each case actually paid or payable by Maker in connection with the Sale or
     Financing, plus (bb) all payments of principal and Deferred Interest paid
     to Holder an account of this Note from the proceeds of such Sale or
     Financing, plus (cc) an amount equal to all payments of principal and
     interest on the Senior Loans made from the proceeds of such Sale or
     Financing, plus (dd) any amount paid as Yield Maintenance Premium as a
     result of such Sale or Financing.  For purposes of this Section 2(h),
                                                             ------------
     "Gross Capital Proceeds" shall mean the gross proceeds of whatever form or
      ----------------------
     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 Project 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, as determined by an independent
     investment banker designated by Holder).

                    (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 Project 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 plus
     Deferred Interest on the Note plus (bb) the outstanding principal balance
     of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, the Senior Loans.

               (v)  Determination of Fair Market Value.  The fair market value
                    ----------------------------------
     of the Project shall be determined for purposes of this Note as follows:

                    (A)  Partial Sale.  In the event of a Sale of a portion of
                         ------------
     the Project, Holder shall select an experienced and reputable appraiser to
     prepare a written appraisal report of the fair market value of the Project
     in accordance with clause (C) below, and the appraised fair market value
     submitted to Holder by such appraiser shall be conclusive for purposes of
     this Note.

                    (B)  Other Occurrences.  In all other circumstances the fair
                         -----------------
     market value of the Project 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 Project 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 Project for the 3 immediately preceding fiscal
     years of the Project.

                    (C)  Appraisal Standards and Assumptions.  In making any
                         -----------------------------------
<PAGE>
     determination by appraisal of fair market value, the appraiser(s) shall
     assume that the improvements then located on the Project 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 Project is
     located.

               (vi)  Effect on Holder's Approval Rights.  Nothing contained in
                     ----------------------------------
     this Section 2(h) shall be deemed or construed to waive, restrict, impair,
     or in any manner affect Holder's rights hereunder or under any provisions
     of the Debt Papers to consent (or withhold its consent) to: any prepayment
     of the Loan in whole or in part; sales or other transfers of all or any
     portion of the Project or any interest therein; sales or other transfers of
     any ownership interests in Maker; any refinancing of all or any portion of
     the Loan; any junior financing; or, any other matters which require
     Holder's consent.

               (vii)  Statement, Books and Records.  With each payment of
                      ----------------------------
     Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest, Maker shall furnish to Holder a
     statement setting forth Maker's proposed calculation of 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 Holder'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 Holder, except that
     Maker shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of any such audit which
     discloses that any amount properly payable by Maker to Holder 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, Holder 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 Project 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 Holder, but
     Holder 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.

               (ix) No payment of Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest may, when
<PAGE>
     added to all other payments of interest or payments construed as interest,
     shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

     3.  Usury Savings Clause.  The provisions of this Section 3 shall govern
         --------------------                          ---------
and control over any irreconcilably inconsistent provision contained in this
Note or in any other document evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced
hereby.  The Holder 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 Holder 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
Holder 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) 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 Holder 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 Holder 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 and Principal.  Maker promises to pay to the Holder
               ----------------------
     hereof Basic Interest, Deferred Interest and Additional Interest as, in the
     respective amounts, and at the respective times provided in Section 2
                                                                 ---------
     hereinabove.  Maker also agrees that, on the anniversary  date of this
     note, Maker will pay to the Holder one-twentieth of the principal of this
     Note ($_____________), together with all Basic Interest (and on the
     twentieth anniversary, including without limitation, Deferred Interest and
     Additional Interest accrued hereunder and not theretofore paid).  Each
     payment of principal of, Basic Interest (including without limitation,
     Deferred Interest), and Additional Interest on, or any other amounts of any
     kind with respect to, this Note shall be made by the Maker to the Holder
     hereof at its office in Phoenix, Arizona (or at any other place which the
     Holder may hereafter designate for such purpose in a notice duly given to
     the Maker hereunder), not later than noon, Eastern Standard Time, on the
     date due thereof; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to
     have been received by the Holder 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.
<PAGE>

          (b)  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 Holder within five business days after the
     date it first becomes due and payable, Maker shall pay to the Holder 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 secured hereby (other
     ----
     than the principal payment due upon maturity of the Note, whether by
     acceleration or otherwise) is not made when due, Holder 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 would be a reasonable estimate of the
     expenses so incurred.  Therefore, if any such payment is not received when
     due and payable, Maker shall without prejudicing or affecting any other
     rights or remedies of the trustee under those certain Junior Deeds of Trust
     (or Junior Mortgages, or Junior Deeds to Secure Debt), Assignment of Leases
     and Rents, Security Agreement, Financing Statement and Fixture Filing of
     even date herewith or Holder pay to Holder to cover expenses incurred in
     handling the delinquent payment, an amount calculated at five percent (5%)
     of the amount of the delinquent payment.

          (c)  No Prepayment.  Maker shall have the right to prepay this Note at
               -------------
     any time, but only subject to the requirements and conditions set forth
     below.  If under any circumstances whatsoever (other than pursuant to
     Section 3 above) this Note is paid in whole or in part, whether
     voluntarily, following acceleration after the occurrence of an Event of
     Default, with the consent of Holder, by Holder's application of any
     condemnation or insurance proceeds to amounts due under the Note, by
     operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not such payment prior to the
     Stated Maturity Date results from the Holder's exercise of its rights to
     accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby, then Maker shall pay to the
     Holder the Yield Maintenance Premium (defined hereinbelow) in addition to
     paying the entire unpaid principal balance of this Note and all Interest
     which has accrued but is unpaid except with the written consent of the
     Holder.

          A Yield Maintenance Premium in an amount equal to the grater of (A)
     one percent (1.0%) of the principal amount being prepaid, and (B) the
     positive excess of (1) the present value ("PV") of all future installments
     of principal and interest due pursuant to Section 4(a) of this Note absent
                                               ------------
     any such prepayment including the principal amount due at the Stated
     Maturity Date (collectively, "All Future Payments"), discounted at an
     interest rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the Treasury Constant
     Maturity Yield Index published during the second full week preceding the
     date on which such Yield Maintenance Premium is payable for instruments
     having a maturity coterminous with the remaining term of this Note, and (b)
     One Hundred Forty (140) basis points, over (2) the then outstanding
     principal balance hereof immediately before such prepayment [(PV of All
     Future Payments) (Principal balance at the time of prepayment) = Yield
     Maintenance Premium].  "Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index" shall mean
<PAGE>
     the average yield for "This Week" as reported by the Federal Reserve Board
     in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519).  If there is no Treasury
     Constant Maturity Yield Index for instruments having a maturity coterminous
     with the remaining term of this Note, then the index shall be equal to the
     weighted average yield to maturity of the Treasury Constant Maturity Yield
     Indices with maturities next longer and shorter than such remaining average
     life to the maturity, calculated by averaging (and rounding upward to the
     nearest 1/100 of 1% per annum, if the average is not such a multiple) the
     yields of the relevant Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Indices (rounded,
     if necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1% with any figure of 1/200 of 1% or
     above rounded upward).  In the event that any Yield Maintenance Premium is
     due hereunder, Holder shall deliver to Maker a statement setting forth the
     amount and determination of the Yield Maintenance Premium and, provided
     that Holder shall have in good faith applied the formula described above,
     Maker shall not have the right to challenge the calculation or the method
     of calculation set forth in any such statement in the absence of manifest
     error, which calculation may be made by Holder on any day during the thirty
     (30) day period preceding the date of such prepayment.  Holder shall not be
     obligated or required to have actually reinvested the prepaid principal
     balance at the Treasury Constant Maturity Yield Index or otherwise as a
     condition to receiving the Yield Maintenance Premium. No Yield Maintenance
     Premium or premium shall be due or payable in connection with any
     prepayment of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note made on or after any
     date after June 1, 2005.  In addition to the aforesaid Yield Maintenance
     Premium if, upon any such prepayment (whether prior to or after any date
     that is after June 1, 2005, the aforesaid prior written notice has not been
     received by Holder, the Yield Maintenance Premium shall be increased by an
     amount equal to the lesser of (i) thirty (30) days' unearned interest
     computed in the outstanding principal balance of this Note, so prepaid and
     (ii) unearned interest computed on the outstanding principal balance of
     this Note so prepaid for the period from, and including, the date of
     prepayment through the otherwise Stated Maturity Date of this Note.

          Without limiting the scope of the foregoing provisions, the provisions
     of this paragraph shall constitute, within the meaning of any applicable
     state statute, both a waiver of any right Maker may have to prepay the
     Note, in whole or in part, without premium or charge, upon acceleration of
     the maturity of the Note, or otherwise, and an agreement by Maker to pay
     the prepayment charge described in this Note, whether such prepayment is
     voluntary or upon or following any acceleration of this Note, or otherwise,
     and for such purpose Maker has separately initialed this provision in the
     space provided below, and Maker hereby declares that Holder's agreement to
     make the Loan to Maker at the interest rate and for the term set forth in
     the Note constitutes adequate consideration, of individual weight, for this
     waiver and agreement by Maker.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything else in this Note to the
     contrary, it is agreed that in the event this Note becomes due and payable
     as a result of the termination of all of the Property Management
<PAGE>
     Agreements, Maker shall not be subject to the Yield Maintenance Premiums or
     other prepayment premiums contemplated herein and Maker shall only be
     required to repay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and
     accrued but unpaid  Basic Interest and Deferred Interest through the date
     of such prepayment, it being agreed that in such event, Maker shall not be
     required to pay any Capital Proceeds Contingent Interest or Cash Flow
     Contingent Interest.

                   Maker's Initials:_____

     5.  Representations and Warranties of Maker.  Maker represents and warrants
