    RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT    
  

    THIS AGREEMENT is made as of this 31st day of May, 2001 by and between ADC Telecommunications, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), and
William F. O'Brien ("Participant"). 

    The
Company, pursuant to its Global Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), hereby grants the following stock award to Participant, which award shall have the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement: 

	1.
	Award

The
Company, effective as of the date of this Agreement, hereby grants to Participant a restricted stock award of 26,042 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $.20 per share, of the Company
(the "Common Stock"), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

	2.
	Vesting

Subject
to the terms and condition of this Agreement, the Shares shall vest in full to Participant on August 31, 2002 if and only if Participant remains continuously employed by the Company
from the date hereof until such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the vesting and exercisability of Participant's stock option granted on May 31, 2001 under the Company's
Global Stock Incentive Plan is accelerated under the conditions specified in Exhibit A to such stock option agreement, the vesting of the Shares shall similarly be accelerated. 

	3.
	Restriction on Transfer

Until
the Shares vest pursuant to Section 2 hereof, none of the Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, and no attempt to transfer
the Shares, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall vest the transferee with any interest or right in or with respect to the Shares. 

	4.
	Forfeiture

If
Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company or any majority-owned affiliate of the Company for any reason prior to the vesting of the Shares pursuant to Section 2 hereof, Participant's
rights to all of the Shares shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing or paragraph 2 hereof, in the event Company terminates Participant's employment without
"Cause" prior to August 31, 2002, the Shares shall fully vest on the date of such termination. For purposes of this paragraph 4, "Cause" shall mean willful and continued failure by Participant
to perform his duties or gross and willful misconduct including, but not limited to, wrongful appropriation of funds or the commission of a gross misdemeanor or felony. 

	5.
	Issuance and Custody of Certificate

(a) The
Company shall cause to be issued one or more stock certificates, registered in the name of Participant, evidencing the Shares. Each such certificate shall bear the following legend: 

"The
shares of common stock represented by this certificate are subject to forfeiture, and the transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the
restrictions, terms and conditions (including restrictions against transfer) contained in the ADC Telecommunications, Inc. Global Stock Incentive Plan and a 

1

 

Restricted Stock Award Agreement entered into between ADC Telecommunications, Inc. and the registered owner of such shares. Copies of the Plan and the Agreement are on file in the office of the
Secretary of ADC Telecommunications, Inc., 12501 Whitewater Drive, Minnetonka, Minnesota." 

(b) Participant
shall cause stock powers relating to the Shares executed by Participant to be delivered to the Company. 

(c) Each
certificate issued pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof, together with the stock powers relating to the Shares, shall be deposited by the Company with the Secretary of the Company or
a custodian designated by the Secretary. The Secretary or such custodian shall issue a receipt to Participant evidencing the certificate or certificates held which are registered in the name of
Participant. 

(d) After
any Shares vest pursuant to Sections 2 or 4 hereof, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued a certificate or certificates evidencing such vested Shares, free of the legend
provided in section 5(a) hereof, and shall cause such certificate or certificates to be delivered to Participant or Participant's legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs. 

	6.
	Distributions and Adjustments

(a) If
all or any portion of the Shares vest in Participant subsequent to any change in the number or character of Shares of Common Stock (through stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split,
reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants
or other rights to purchase Shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or other similar corporate transaction or event affecting the Shares such that an adjustment is determined by the
Compensation and Organization Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the interest represented by the Shares),
Participant shall then receive upon such vesting the number and type of securities or other consideration which he would have received if the Shares had vested prior to the event changing the number
or character of outstanding Shares of Common Stock. 

(b) Any
additional Shares of Common Stock, any other securities of the Company and any other property (except for cash dividends) distributed with respect to the Shares prior to the date the
Shares vest shall be subject to the same restrictions, terms and conditions as the Shares. Any cash dividends payable with respect to the Shares shall be distributed to Participant at the same time
cash dividends are distributed to shareholders of the Company generally. 

(c) Any
additional Shares of Common Stock, any securities and any other property (except for cash dividends) distributed with respect to the Shares prior to the date such Shares vest shall be
promptly deposited with the Secretary or the custodian designated by the Secretary to be held in custody in accordance with Section 5(c) hereof. 

	7.
	Taxes

(a) In
order to provide the Company with the opportunity to claim the benefit of any income tax deduction which may be available to it in connection with this restricted stock award, and in
order to comply with all applicable federal or state tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to insure that, if necessary, all applicable federal or state
income and social security taxes are withheld or collected from Participant. 

(b) Participant
may elect to satisfy his federal and state income tax withholding obligations in connection with this restricted stock award by (i) having the Company withhold a portion
of 

2

 

the shares of Common Stock otherwise to be delivered upon vesting of this restricted stock award having a fair market value equal to the amount of federal and state income taxes required to be
withheld in connection with this restricted stock award, in accordance with the rules of the Committee, or (ii) delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock other than the shares to
be delivered upon vesting of this restricted stock award having a fair market value equal to such taxes, in accordance with the rules of the Committee. 

(c) Notwithstanding
clause 7(b) above, if Participant elects, in accordance with Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to recognize ordinary income in
the year of acquisition of the Shares, the Company may require at the time of such election an additional payment for withholding tax purposes based on the fair market value of such Shares as of the
date of the acquisition of such Shares by Participant. 

	8.
	Miscellaneous

(a) This
Agreement is issued pursuant to the Plan and is subject to its terms. Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. The Plan is also available for inspection during
business hours at the principal office of the Company. 

(b) This
Agreement shall not confer on Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. 

(c) This
agreement shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard for conflicts of laws principles thereof. 

    IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year first above written.

                                 PROMISSORY NOTE

$216,000.00                                                  Phoenix, Arizona

                                                             Note Doc.061201216

FOR VALUED RECEIVED, and legally bound hereby, RRF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
("Maker"), a Delaware partnership, InnSuites Hospitality Trust, General Partner,
an Ohio real estate investment trust, having an office at 1615 East Northern
Avenue, Suite 102, Phoenix, Arizona 85020 hereby promises to pay to the order of
Rare Earth Development Company ("Payee"), an Arizona corporation, 1615 East
Northern Avenue, Suite 102, Phoenix, Arizona 85020 or a such other place as the
holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of
TWO HUNDRED SIXTEEN THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($216,000.00), with interest on
the unpaid principal balance thereon from time to time outstanding, at the rate
of seven percent (7.00%) per annum, computed on a three hundred sixty (360)-day
year, to be due and payable in installments of principal and interest as
follows:

         (A)      Commencing on July 15, 2001, one annual payment of accrued but
                  unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance
                  hereunder; and on July 15, 2001 (the "Maturity date"), one
                  payment in the amount of the then unpaid principal balance
                  hereunder and all sums and charges due and unpaid by Maker
                  (collectively, the "Note").

Payments shall be applied first to any charges or sums (other than principal and
interest) due and payable by Maker, second to accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal balance hereof, and then to further reduce the principal balance of
this Note.

Maker shall gave the right any time during the term of this Note to repay all or
part of the unpaid principal amount of the Note, together with any accrued and
unpaid interest thereon any other sums or charges due hereunder without any
prepayment premium or penalty.

Maker hereby waives for itself and, to the fullest extent not prohibited by
applicable law, for any subsequent lienor, any right Maker may now or hereafter
have under the doctrine of marshaling of assets or otherwise which would require
Payee to proceed against certain property before proceeding against any other
property.

Maker hereby agrees that in the event part of 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 Payee upon ten (10) days prior written
notice, each of which is hereby expressly waived, be increased to nine and
00/100 percent (9.00%) per annum or the

                                                                             -1-

highest rate for which the parties may agree under applicable law, whichever is
less (the "Default Rate"). Maker 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 or
the entire Note, or as a wavier of any other right or remedy accruing to Payee.

In the event that any regular payment of interest herein provided shall not be
received by Payee on the date such payment is due, Payee shall have the right to
assess Maker a late payment charge in the amount of two percent (2.0%) of such
overdue quarterly installment, which shall become immediately due to Payee for
the additional cost agreed compensation to Payee for the additional costs and
expenses reasonable expected to be incurred by Payee by reason of such
nonpayment. Maker acknowledges that the exact amount of such cost and expenses
may be difficult, if not impossible, to determine with certainty, and further
acknowledges and confesses the amount of such charge to be a consciously
considered, good faith estimate of the actual damage to Payee by reason of such
default. The Default Rate will only accrue for periods of delinquent
installments except for such when Payee accepts late payments of installments
accompanied by a late payment charge as specified above.

Upon any of the following Events of Default, at the election of Payee, the
entire unpaid principle balance of the Note, together with all accrued but
unpaid interest thereon at the Default Rate and all other sums or changes due
hereunder, shall become due and payable:

                  (a)      Maker's failure to pay when due any installment
                           required to be paid hereunder, on or before the tenth
                           (10th) day following the applicable due date;

                  (b)      Maker's failure to pay when due any other payment
                           required to be under this Note, subject to any notice
                           and applicable grace period, if any;

                  (c)      Maker's breach of any other covenant or agreement
                           herein and such breach remains uncorrected at the
                           expiration of any applicable grace period expressly
                           provided for herein;

                  (d)      Any creditor's proceeding in which Maker consents to
                           the appointment or a receiver or trustee for any of
                           its property;

                                                                             -2-
<Page>

                  (e)      if any order, judgment or decree shall be entered,
                           without the consent of Maker, upon an application of
                           a creditor approving the appointment of a receiver or
                           trustee for any of its property, and such order,
                           judgment, decree, or appointment is not dismissed or
                           stayed with an appropriate appeal bond within sixty
                           (60) days following the entry or rendition thereof;
                           or

                  (f)      if Maker (i) makes a general assignment for the
                           benefit of creditors, (ii) fails to pay its debts
                           generally as such debts become due, (iii) is found to
                           be insolvent by a court of competent jurisdiction,
                           (iv) voluntarily files a petition in bankruptcy or a
                           petition or answer seeking readjustment of debts
                           under any state or federal bankruptcy or like law, or
                           (v) any such petition is filed against Maker and is
                           not vacated or dismissed within sixty (60) days after
                           filling thereof.

Notice of such election by Payee is hereby expressly waived as part of the
consideration for this loan. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to
restrict the exercise of any other rights or remedies granted to Payee hereunder
upon the failure of Maker to perform any provision hereof.

If this Note is not paid when due, whether at maturity or by acceleration, Maker
promises to pay all costs incurred by Payee, including without limitation
reasonable attorney's fees to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, and all
expenses incurred in connection with the protection or realization of any
collateral, whether or not suit is filed hereon or on any instrument granted a
security interest.

Maker hereby expressly acknowledges and represents that the indebtedness is for
a business purpose and not consumer or household purposes.

Maker hereby waves demand, presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest,
notice of non-payments and any and all lack of diligence or delays in collection
or enforcement of this Note, and expressly consents to any extension of time of
payment hereof, release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereunder
or any of the security for this Note, acceptance of other parties to be liable
for any of the Note or of other security therefore, or any other indulgence or
forbearance which may be made, without notice to any party and without in any
way affecting the liability of any party.

No failure by Payee to exercise any right hereunder shall be construed as a
waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right any time or from
time to time thereafter.

                                                                             -3-
