On March 25, 2004, RRF Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership controlled by its sole general partner, InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”), sold its 160-suite hotel located in Tempe, Arizona to Tempe/Phoenix Airport Resort LLC (“Tempe Resort LLC”), an affiliate of James F. Wirth, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Trust, for $6.8 million, which was equal to the appraised value.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the related purchase agreement, Tempe Resort LLC satisfied the purchase price by assuming $1.3 million of the Partnership’s notes payable and $3.8 million of the Trust’s notes payable to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates and by assuming the $1.7 million outstanding mortgage on the property.

On April 1, 2004, the Partnership sold its 131-suite hotel located in San Diego, California to Hampstead Lafayette Hotel, LLC, an unaffiliated third party (“Hampstead”), for $9.7 million.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the related purchase agreement, Hampstead paid the purchase price in cash, $335,000 of which was previously deposited into an escrow account by Hampstead and $9,322,000 of which was received at the closing.  The Trust used a portion of the cash proceeds to fully satisfy the bank mortgage note on the property in the amount of $4,811,000.  The Partnership and Hampstead determined the purchase price in arms-length negotiations.
