INNSUITES HOSPITALITY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF JULY 31, 2007 AND JANUARY 31, 2007
AND FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2007 AND 2006

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

InnSuites Hospitality Trust (the “Trust”) is an unincorporated real estate investment trust in the State of Ohio that at July 31, 2007 owned four hotels through a partnership interest in RRF Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) and one hotel (Yuma Hospitality LP) directly (the “Hotels”) with an aggregate of 843 suites in Arizona, southern California and New Mexico. The Trust is the sole general partner in the Partnership. The Hotels are managed by InnSuites Hotels, Inc. (“InnSuites Hotels”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust.

InnSuites Hotels holds management contracts under which it provides hotel management services to the Hotels, as well as four hotels with an aggregate of 544 suites owned by affiliates of James F. Wirth (“Mr. Wirth”), the Trust’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Under the management agreements, InnSuites Hotels provides the personnel at the hotels, the expenses of which are reimbursed at cost, and manages the hotels’ daily operations, for which it receives a percentage of revenue from the hotels. InnSuites Hotels also holds licensing agreements and the “InnSuites” trademarks and provides licensing services to the Hotels, as well as the four hotels owned by affiliates of Mr. Wirth with an aggregate of 544 suites and two unrelated hotel property with an aggregate of 255 suites. Under the licensing agreements, InnSuites Hotels receives a percentage of revenue from the hotels in exchange for use of the “InnSuites” trademark. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Trust’s general partnership interest in the Partnership was 70.42% and 69.89% on July 31, 2007 and January 31, 2007, respectively. The weighted average for the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006 was 70.10% and 69.50%, respectively. The weighted average for the three months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006 was 70.31% and 69.53%, respectively.

PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

The Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) provides for the issuance of two classes of limited partnership units, Class A and Class B. Such classes are identical in all respects, except that each Class A limited partnership unit is convertible into a like number of Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust at any time at the option of the limited partner. As of July 31, 2007 and January 31, 2007, a total of 500,581 and 570,067, respectively, Class A limited partnership units were issued and outstanding. Additionally, as of July 31, 2007 and January 31, 2007, a total of 3,407,938 Class B limited partnership units were held by Mr. Wirth and his affiliates on that date, in lieu of the issuance of Class A limited partnership units. Each Class B limited partnership unit is identical to Class A limited partnership units in all respects, except that Class B limited partnership units are convertible only with the approval of the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion. If all of the Class A and B limited partnership units were converted, the limited partners in the Partnership would receive 3,908,519 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. As of July 31, 2007 and January 31, 2007, 9,302,998 and 9,233,512 General Partner Units were held by the Trust, respectively.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements of the Partnership, InnSuites Hotels and Yuma Hospitality LP are consolidated with the Trust, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended July 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31, 2008. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended January 31, 2007.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accounting policies that the Trust believes are most critical and involve the most subjective judgments include estimates and assumptions of future revenue and expenditures used to project cash flows. Future cash flows are used to determine the recoverability (or impairment) of the carrying values of the Trust’s assets in the event management is required to test an asset for recoverability of carrying value under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows over its estimated remaining life, the Trust recognizes an impairment expense to reduce the asset’s carrying value to its fair value. Fair value is determined by either the most current third-party property appraisal, if available or the present value of future undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the asset. The Trust’s evaluation of future cash flows is based on historical experience and other factors, including certain economic conditions and committed future bookings. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance and may differ from actual cash flows.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Room, food and beverage, telecommunications, management and licensing fees and other revenue are recognized as earned as services are provided and items are sold. Payroll reimbursements are recorded as personnel services are provided and are not netted with the corresponding payroll expense.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share have been computed based on the weighted-average number of Shares of Beneficial Interest outstanding during the periods and potentially dilutive securities.

For the six month periods ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, there were Class A and Class B limited partnership units outstanding, which are convertible to Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust. Assuming conversion, the aggregate weighted-average of these Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,949,836 and 4,029,025 for the first six months of fiscal year 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The following is a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share (there is no dilutive effect for the three month periods ended July 31, 2007 and 2006):

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FIN No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” The interpretation applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold in determining if a tax position should be reflected in the financial statements. Only tax positions that meet the “more likely than not” recognition threshold may be recognized. The interpretation also provides guidance on classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition requirements for uncertain tax positions. FIN No. 48 will be effective for the Trust’s fiscal year ending January 31, 2008. See Income Taxes at Note 7.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Trust’s fiscal year ending January 31, 2009. The Trust is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 157 and has not yet determined the impact on its financial condition and results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132 (R).” This pronouncement requires an employer to make certain recognitions, measurements, and disclosures regarding defined benefit postretirement plans. The Trust does not have any defined benefit postretirement plans, and SFAS No. 158 will not have any impact on its financial condition and results of operations.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 provides guidance on consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have an impact on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for the Trust on February 1, 2008. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2006, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 06-03, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That is, Gross Versus Net Presentation)” which permits entities to present certain taxes assessed by a governmental authority on either a gross basis (included in revenues and costs) or a net basis (excluded from revenues). An entity is not required to reevaluate its existing policies related to taxes assessed by a governmental authority but may choose to do so. EITF Issue No. 06-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2006. The Trust reports it revenue net of sales taxes. Management plans to continue to report revenue net of sales tax.

3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In December 2004, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) was issued. This Statement is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. This Statement establishes standards for accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity securities for goods and services. The Trust adopted this Statement during fiscal year 2006.

During the first six months of fiscal year 2007, the Trust issued 99,300 restricted shares to its Trustees, officers and other key employees with a total fair value of $134,055. Fair value was calculated using the closing share price on the date of the grant. The shares were issued from the Trust’s treasury stock. During the first six months of fiscal year 2007, the Trust recognized expense on these shares totaling $49,747. The shares became fully vested on December 31, 2006.

7. INCOME TAXES

The Trust has recorded net income tax provisions of $44,286 and $77,650 for the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which included a tax benefit of $233,638 and $210,000, respectively, from the utilization of federal net operating loss carryforwards. The Trust has recorded net income tax benefits of $31,107 and $850 for the three months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006. The Trust has a current income tax receivable of $2,901 as of July 31, 2007 and a current income tax payable of $31,805 as of January 31, 2007.  At July 31, 2007 and January 31, 2007, the Trust maintained a 100% valuation allowance of $1,036,225 and $1,227,000, respectively, against its net deferred income tax assets. On July 31, 2007 the Trust has net operating loss carryforwards of $11.3 and $1.3 million for federal and state, respectively.

On February 1, 2007 the Trust adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Pursuant to FIN 48, the Trust identified, evaluated and measured the amount of income tax benefits to be recognized for the Trust’s income tax positions. The Trust has concluded that there are no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the financial statements. As a result of the adoption of FIN 48, the Trust has not recognized any change to the January 31, 2007 balance in retained earnings. At January 31, 2007 and July 31, 2007, the Trust had no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Trust’s effective income tax rate in future periods other than the benefits from net operating loss carryforwards that are offset by a valuation allowance.

The Trust's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Trust had no accrued interest or penalties at January 31, 2007 and no accrued interest or penalties at July 31, 2007.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the InnSuites Hospitality Trust unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The Trust owns the sole general partner’s interest in the Partnership. The Trust’s principal source of cash flows is from the operations of the Hotels and management and licensing contracts with affiliated and third-party hotels outside of the Trust.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS 

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” The interpretation applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold in determining if a tax position should be reflected in the financial statements. Only tax positions that meet the “more likely than not” recognition threshold may be recognized. The interpretation also provides guidance on classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition requirements for uncertain tax positions. See Income Taxes at Note 7.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Trust’s fiscal year ending January 31, 2009. The Trust is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 157 and has not yet determined the impact on its financial condition and results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132 (R).” This pronouncement requires an employer to make certain recognitions, measurements, and disclosures regarding defined benefit postretirement plans. The Trust does not have any defined benefit postretirement plans, and SFAS No. 158 will not have any impact on its financial condition and results of operations.
 
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” SAB 108 provides guidance on consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have an impact on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for the Trust on February 1, 2008. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2006, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 06-03, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That is, Gross Versus Net Presentation)” which permits entities to present certain taxes assessed by a governmental authority on either a gross basis (included in revenues and costs) or a net basis (excluded from revenues). An entity is not required to reevaluate its existing policies related to taxes assessed by a governmental authority but may choose to do so. EITF issue No. 06-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2006. The Trust reports it revenue net of sales taxes. Management plans to continue to report revenue net of sales tax.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The expenses of the Trust consist primarily of hotel operating expenses, property taxes, insurance, corporate overhead, interest on mortgage debt, professional fees and depreciation of the Hotels. The operating performance of the Trust is principally related to the performance of the Hotels. Therefore, management believes that a review of the historical performance of the operations of the Hotels, particularly with respect to occupancy, calculated as rooms sold divided by the number of rooms available, average daily rate (“ADR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by number of rooms sold, and revenue per available room (“REVPAR”), calculated as total room revenue divided by the number of rooms available, is appropriate for understanding revenue from the Hotels. Occupancy was 74.6%, relatively consistent with the prior year period. ADR increased $5.11, or 7.0%, to $78.48. The sharp increase in ADR resulted in an increase of $3.53, or 6.4%, in REVPAR to $58.56 from $55.03 in the prior year period. 
 
The following table shows occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the periods indicated:

Total Trust revenue was $11.4 million for the six months ended July 31, 2007, consistent with the prior year period. Revenues from hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues, increased 4.8% to $9.7 million from $9.2 million when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, primarily due to higher average rates realized through the Trust’s rate management efforts.

Total expenses decreased $235,000, or 2.1%, to $10.9 million when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006. Total operating expenses decreased $238,000, or 2.3%, to $10.0 million from $10.3 million for the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decreases are primarily due to decreased payroll expenses resulting from the termination on the San Diego, California management agreement during the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.

General and administrative expenses increased $204,000, or 13.0%, to $1.8 million from $1.6 million when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This is primarily due to $85,000 of workers’ compensation expense incurred by InnSuites Hotels, Inc. relating to a prior year policy audit and additional payroll and other administrative expenses at the corporate location.

Hotel property depreciation expenses decreased $60,000, or 5.8%, to $978,000 from $1.0 million when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This is primarily due to depreciation incurred in fiscal year 2007 related to fixtures, furniture and equipment at the San Diego, California location that was sold during the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.

Total interest expense was $897,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2007, consistent with the prior year period total of $893,000.

Total Trust revenue was $4.9 million for the three months ended July 31, 2007, consistent with the prior year period. Revenues from hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues, increased 6.5% to $4.0 million from $3.8 million when comparing the three months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, primarily due to higher average rates realized through the Trust’s rate management efforts.

Total expenses were $5.5 million for the three months ended July 31, 2007, an increase of $51,000, or less than 1.0%, compared to the prior year period. Total operating expenses increased $68,000, or 1.4%, to $5.1 million from $5.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

General and administrative expenses increased $247,000, or 34.3%, to $968,000 from $721,000 when comparing the three months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This is primarily due to $85,000 of workers’ compensation expense incurred by InnSuites Hotels, Inc. relating to a prior year policy audit and additional professional fees incurred at the corporate location.

Hotel property depreciation expenses decreased $37,000, or 7.0%, to $488,000 from $525,000 when comparing the six months ended July 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This is primarily due to depreciation incurred in fiscal year 2007 related to fixtures, furniture and equipment at the San Diego, California location that was sold during the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.

Total interest expense was $433,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2007, a decrease of $17,000, or 3.8%, from the prior year period total of $451,000.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (FFO)

The Trust recognizes that industry analysts and investors use Funds From Operations ("FFO") as a financial measure to evaluate and compare equity REITs. The Trust also believes it is meaningful as an indicator of net income, excluding most non-cash items, and provides information about the Trust's cash available for distributions, debt service and capital expenditures. The Trust follows the March 1995 interpretation of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition of FFO, as amended January 1, 2000, which is calculated (in the Trust's case) as net income or loss (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, depreciation and amortization on real estate property and extraordinary items. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all of the Trust's cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure as an indicator of performance and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. In addition, the Trust's FFO may not be comparable to other companies' FFO due to differing methods of calculating FFO and varying interpretations of the NAREIT definition.

Funds from Operations increased approximately $165,000 for the six month period ended July 31, 2007, reflecting an increase of 14.5%, when compared to the prior year period. The increase was due primarily to stronger operating results at the hotel properties. Funds from Operations decreased approximately $38,000 for the three month period ended July 31, 2007, reflecting a decrease of 64.2% from the prior year period. The decrease was due primarily to increased administrative costs at the corporate level.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Through its ownership interest in the Partnership, Yuma Hospitality LP and InnSuites Hotels, the Trust has its proportionate share of the benefits and obligations of the Partnership’s and Yuma Hospitality LP’s ownership interests, as well as InnSuites Hotels’ operational interests, in the Hotels. The Trust’s principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements, including distributions to its shareholders, is its share of these cash flows. The Trust’s liquidity, including its ability to make distributions to its shareholders, will depend upon the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from hotel operations.

The Trust has principal of $483,654 due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year 2008 under mortgage notes payable. For the twelve months between August 1, 2007 and July 31, 2008, the Trust has principal of $925,582 due and payable under mortgage notes payable. The Trust anticipates that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due.

The Trust has no principal due and payable in fiscal year 2008 under notes and advances payable to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates. The Trust had $400,000 due to Rare Earth Financial, L.L.C., an affiliate of Mr. Wirth, in March 2006. The Trust satisfied this note using the line of credit established by the Partnership with Rare Earth Financial in March 2006. On December 1, 2006, the Partnership amended this line of credit agreement to increase the maximum amount the Partnership can borrow under the line of credit from $700,000 to $1.0 million. The Trust has $200,000 due on the line of credit as of July 31, 2007. For the twelve months between August 1, 2007 and July 31, 2008, the Trust has principal due and payable under notes payable of $200,000 to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates.

The Trust has no principal due and payable in fiscal 2008 on the $2.0 million non-revolving line of credit secured by the Tucson Saint Mary’s hotel property. As of July 31, 2007, the Trust has borrowed $1.5 million, which is due and payable in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The Trust anticipates that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy this obligation when it becomes due.

The Trust entered into an agreement for an unsecured bank line of credit on August 18, 2006. Under the agreement, the Trust can draw $750,000, bearing interest at prime plus 0.5% (8.75% as of July 31, 2007), with interest-only payments due monthly. During specified times over the duration of the line of credit, the Trust must pay the line of credit down to zero and is unable to borrow against the line of credit for a period of 30 days. During the first quarter, the Trust paid down the line of credit to zero and maintained a zero balance for a period of 30 days. The line of credit matures on February 18, 2008. As of July 31, 2007, the Trust had drawn $602,407 of the funds available under the line or credit.

The Trust may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments. Any debt incurred or issued by the Trust may be secured or unsecured, long-term, medium-term or short-term, bear interest at a fixed or variable rate and be subject to such other terms as the Trust considers prudent.

The Trust continues to contribute to a Capital Expenditures Fund (the “Fund”) an amount equal to 4% of the InnSuites Hotels’ revenues from operation of the Hotels. The Fund is restricted by the mortgage lender for four of the Trust’s properties. As of July 31, 2007, $103,136 was held in restricted capital expenditure funds and is included on the Trust’s Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.” The Fund is intended to be used for capital improvements to the Hotels and for refurbishment and replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment, in addition to other uses of amounts in the Fund considered appropriate from time to time. During the six months ended July 31, 2007, the Hotels spent $411,278 for capital expenditures. The Trust considers the majority of these improvements to be revenue producing. Therefore, these amounts have been capitalized and are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The Hotels also spent $708,016 and $716,922 during the six-month periods ended July 31, 2007 and July 31, 2006, respectively and spent $353,378 and $378,483 during the three-month periods ended July 31, 2007 and July 31, 2006, respectively, on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been charged to expense as incurred.

As of July 31, 2007, the Trust has no commitments for capital expenditures beyond the 4% reserve for refurbishment and replacements set aside annually for each hotel property.

The Trust may acquire or develop additional hotels only as suitable opportunities arise, and the Trust will not undertake acquisition or redevelopment of properties unless adequate sources of financing are available. Funds for future acquisitions or development of hotels are expected to be derived, in whole or in part, from borrowings or from the proceeds of additional issuances of Shares of Beneficial Interest or other securities. However, there can be no assurance that the Trust will successfully acquire or develop additional hotels.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES

Other than lease commitments, legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of business and an employment contract with Mr. Wirth, the Trust does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. The Trust does not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the consolidated financial statements. (See Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”)

SEASONALITY

The Hotels’ operations historically have been seasonal. The three southern Arizona hotels experience their highest occupancy in the first fiscal quarter and, to a lesser extent, the fourth fiscal quarter. The second fiscal quarter tends to be the lowest period of occupancy at those three southern Arizona hotels. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Trust’s quarterly revenue. The two hotels located in California and New Mexico historically experience their most profitable periods during the second and third fiscal quarters (the summer season), providing some balance to the general seasonality of the Trust’s hotel business. To the extent that cash flows from operations are insufficient during any quarter, because of temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, the Trust may utilize other cash on hand or borrowings to make distributions to its shareholders or to meet operating needs. No assurance can be given that the Trust will make distributions in the future.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q, including statements containing the phrases “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “predicts,” “should be,” “looking ahead,” “may” or similar words, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

These forward-looking statements reflect the Trust’s current views in respect of future events and financial performance, but are subject to many uncertainties and factors relating to the operations and business environment of the Hotels which may cause the actual results of the Trust to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Pursuant to Section 21E(b)(2)(E) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the qualifications set forth hereinabove are inapplicable to any forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q relating to the operations of the Partnership.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Trust is exposed to interest rate risk primarily as a result of its mortgage notes payable, notes payable to banks and other notes payable. Proceeds from these loans were used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures and expand the Trust’s real estate investment portfolio and operations.

The Trust’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Trust borrows using fixed rate debt, when possible. There have been no significant changes in the Trust’s debt structure during the six months ended July 31, 2007.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Trust conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Trust in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the management of the Trust, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
The Trust identified one reportable condition under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants that constituted a material weakness. The material weakness involved two instances of equity transactions not being timely recorded in the Trust’s accounting records. Management and the auditor agreed that this is a material weakness in internal controls. Management has implemented new internal control procedures at its main office in order to improve and re-establish effective control over its recording of equity transactions.
 
Except as described above, there was no change in the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting during the Trust’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting.
