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 Real Property for the month or other period with respect to which such Basic Interest is due, showing in reasonable detail and in a format approved by Payee the respective amounts of, and the method of calculating Gross Receipts, Operating Expenses, Net Cash Flow, Catch-Up Payment and Cash Flow Contingent Interest for the preceding month, as well as (if requested by Payee) all data reasonably necessary for the calculation of any such amounts.

(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.

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 5 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 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 6 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 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 7 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) 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 8 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: (a) Due Authorization.

The Note is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability hereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally. (e) Place of Business. Maker's principal place of business is located at 715 South Country Club Drive, Mesa, AZ 85210. 6. Affirmative Covenants.

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. (d) Expenses. Pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel, including special local counsel) of Payee, incident to any amendments, waivers and renewals of this Note.

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 Senior Notes are outstanding, Maker shall not incur any Indebtedness prohibited by the terms of the SAC Notes Indenture. (b) No Bankruptcy Filing. To the extent permitted by law, without the unanimous consent of the Board of Directors of the Maker (for these purposes such Board of Directors will not include any committee thereof) voluntarily file any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar proceeding. 8.
