NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF JULY 31 AND JANUARY 31, 2009
AND FOR THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2009 AND 2008
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, 2009 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 one unrelated hotel property with a total of 175 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 71.41% and 70.94% as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, respectively. The weighted average for the six months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 was 71.06% and 70.66%, respectively. The weighted average for the three months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 was 71.27% and 70.60%, 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. A total of 369,391and 431,598 Class A limited partnership units were issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, respectively. Additionally, as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, 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 3,777,329 Shares of Beneficial Interest of the Trust as of July 31, 2009. The Trust held 9,434,188 and 9,371,981 General Partner Units as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, 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 (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP 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, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31, 2010. 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, 2009.
Effective February 1, 2009 we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment to ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160, which was retroactively applied, requires the noncontrolling interest to be separately presented as a component of shareholders’ equity on the condensed consolidated statement of equity.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” For hotel properties held for use, 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. In cases where the Trust does not expect to recover the carrying cost of hotel properties held for sale, it will reduce the carrying value to the sales price less costs to sell. 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.
HOTEL PROPERTIES HELD FOR SALE
On August 1, 2007, the Trust classified its hotel properties as “held for sale.” On August 1, 2008, the Trust reclassified its hotel properties from “held for sale” to “held and used.” The Trust, after one year of efforts, failed to find any qualified buyers for its hotel properties. Although the hotel properties are not classified as “held for sale” as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, we continue to be willing to discuss potential sales with qualified buyers for our hotels and will continue to migrate our primary business from a hotel owner to a hospitality service company providing trademark licensing and management services.
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.
INCOME PER SHARE
Basic and diluted income 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 months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008, 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 incremental increase of the Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,817,540 and 3,876,447 for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively. The aggregate weighted-average incremental increase of the Shares of Beneficial Interest would have been 3,796,262 and 3,876,447 for the three months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For the three-month and six-month periods ended July 31, 2009, the Class A and Class B limited partnership units were anti-dilutive.
The following is a reconciliation of basic income per share to diluted income per share for the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2008. A reconciliation for the three and six-month periods ended July 31, 2009 is not included as the limited partnership units were anti-dilutive for those periods:
| For the six months ended | | For the three months ended |
| | | |
| | | | |
Income attributable to Controlling Interest | | | | | |
Plus (Less): Income attributable to non-controlling interests | | | |

Weighted average common shares outstanding | | | |
Plus: Weighted average incremental shares resulting from unit | | | |
Weighted average common shares outstanding after unit | | | |
| | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 165, “Subsequent Events,” which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS No. 165 provides guidance on the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The Trust adopted SFAS No. 165 during the second quarter of 2009, and its application had no impact on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements. The Trust evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying financial statements were issued, which was September 3, 2009.
3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
For the three and six months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust recognized expenses of $5,850 and $11,700, respectively, related to stock-based compensation. The Trust did not issue any restricted shares during the first six months of fiscal year 2010.
The following table summarizes restricted share activity during the six months ended July 31, 2009:
| Restricted Shares |

Balance at January 31, 2009 | | |
| | |
| | |
| | |

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Trust issued 36,000 restricted shares to its Trustees with a total fair value of $39,240, vesting over one year. 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 three months and six months ended July 31, 2008, the Trust recognized expense of $9,810 and $19,620, respectively. The Trust did not issue any restricted shares during the second quarter of fiscal year 2009.
The following table summarizes restricted share activity during the six months ended July 31, 2008:
| Restricted Shares |
| Shares | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value |
Balance at January 31, 2008 | | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
Balance of unvested awards at July 31, 2008 | | |
No cash was paid out or received by the Trust relating to restricted share awards during the six months ended July 31, 2009 or 2008.
As of July 31, 2009, the Trust had 8,910,414 Shares of Beneficial Interest outstanding.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Trust extended the maturity date of the line of credit to June 30, 2010. In addition, the extension agreement implemented an interest rate floor of 6.25%, which was the effective rate as of July 31, 2009, and granted additional security to the lender through a junior lien on the Yuma, Arizona property. As of July 31, 2009, the Trust had drawn $135,047 of the funds available under the line of credit.

At July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, the Trust maintained a valuation allowance of $1,121,787 and $1,065,414, respectively, against its net deferred income tax assets. There were no net deferred income tax assets or liabilities at July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009. The Trust has utilized projections of taxable income and the utilization of net operating losses for the year ended January 31, 2010 in calculating an effective tax rate and the related income tax provision for the six months ended July 31, 2009. On July 31, 2009, the Trust has federal net operating loss carryforwards of $10.1 million. There are no state net operating loss carryforwards as of July 31, 2009.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Two of the Hotels are subject to non-cancelable ground leases expiring in 2050 and 2033. Total expense associated with the non-cancelable ground leases for the six months ended July 31, 2009 was $101,910, plus a variable component based on gross revenues of each property that totaled approximately $43,934. Total expense associated with the non-cancelable ground leases for the six months ended July 31, 2008 was $101,180, plus a variable component based on gross revenues of each property that totaled approximately $46,435.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Trust entered into a five-year office lease for its corporate headquarters. The Trust recorded no expense related to the lease during the three-month or six-month periods ended July 31, 2009 and 2008. The lease includes a base rent charge of $24,000 for the first lease year with annual increases to a final year base rent of $39,600. The Trust has the option to cancel the lease after each lease year for penalties of four months rent after the first year, with the penalty decreasing by one month’s rent each successive lease year. It is the Trust’s intention to remain in the office for the duration of the five-year lease period.

Fiscal Year Ending | | | |
Remainder of 2010 | | $ | 113,728 | |
2011 | | 227,455 | |
2012 | | 231,855 | |
2013 | | 236,255 | |
2014 | | 244,255 | |
Thereafter | | 5,511,092 | |
| | | |
Total | | $ | 6,564,640 | |
The Trust is obligated under loan agreements relating to four of its Hotels to deposit 4% of the individual Hotel’s room revenue into an escrow account to be used for capital expenditures. The escrow funds applicable to the four Hotel properties for which a mortgage lender escrow exists are reported on the Trust’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Restricted Cash.”
InnSuites Hotels has entered into franchise arrangements with Best Western International for four of the Hotel properties. These agreements provide for fees to be paid by the Hotels based on revenue and reservations received, and contain no minimum payment provisions.
The nature of the operations of the Hotels exposes them to risks of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be determined, management does not expect that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Trust.
The Trust is involved from time to time in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
9. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
The required adoption of SFAS 160 resulted in a change in accounting principle under the provisions of SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” SFAS 160 resulted in changes to the presentation of the Trust’s consolidated financial statements. As a result of these changes, total shareholders’ equity decreased to $109,466 and increased to $127,040 as of July 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, respectively, due to the reclassification of the non-controlling interest to shareholders’ equity. The adoption had no effect on net income attributable to controlling interests, basic net income per share, or diluted net income per share for the three-month and six-month periods ended July 31, 2009 and 2008. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, the Trust repurchased 62,207 limited partnership units in the Partnership and 54,372 Shares of Beneficial Interest from a non-controlling interest holder at $1.70 per unit and share using a $198,000 promissory note. There were no other transactions between the Trust and non-controlling interest holders, including purchases, sales, distribution or contributions, during the three-month and six-month periods ended July 31, 2009 and 2008.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
We own the sole general partner’s interest in the Partnership. Our principal source of cash flows is from the operations of the Hotels and management and licensing contracts with affiliated and third-party hotels.
HOTEL PROPERTIES HELD FOR SALE
We reclassified all of our hotel properties from “held for sale” to “held and used” in the quarter ended October 31, 2008. Due to the economic conditions and credit market restraints, the funds were not available to potential buyers to finance a purchase of one or more of our hotels. As a result of this reclassification, we recorded $1.9 million in depreciation expense during the quarter ended October 31, 2008 that was previously suspended while the assets were “held for sale.”
We continue to be willing to discuss potential sales with qualified buyers for our hotels and will continue to migrate our primary business from a hotel owner to a hospitality service company providing trademark licensing and management services.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2009, we identified the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. Those policies include accounting for property, plant and equipment, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, revenue recognition, receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts, stock based compensation, income taxes, dividends and distributions, minority interest, income (loss) per share and fair value of financial instruments, new accounting pronouncements, segment reporting and advertising cost. We have not changed these policies from those previously disclosed in our Annual Report.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our expenses consist primarily of hotel operating expenses, property taxes, insurance, corporate overhead, interest on mortgage debt, professional fees and depreciation of the Hotels. Our operating performance 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 63.0% for the six months ended July 31, 2009, a decrease of 6.9% from the prior year same period. ADR decreased $8.86, or 10.5%, to $75.36. The decreases in ADR and reduced occupancy resulted in a decrease of $11.36, or 19.3%, in REVPAR to $47.48 from $58.84 in the prior year period. The decrease in occupancy is due to the downward trend in our economy causing less vacation and fewer business travelers. We project that this trend will continue through late 2009.
The following table shows occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the periods indicated:
| | FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED |
| | July 31, | |
| | 2009 | | 2008 | |
| | 63.0 | | | | |
| | | 75.36 | | $ | | |
REVENUE PER AVAILABLE ROOM (REVPAR) | | | 47.48 | | $ | | |
No assurance can be given that the trends reflected in this data will continue or that occupancy, ADR or REVPAR will not decrease as a result of changes in national or local economic or hospitality industry conditions. We expect the current global recession to negatively affect our business through late 2009.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2008
A summary of the operating results for the six months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 is:
| | 2009 | | 2008 | | Change | | % Change | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Controlling Interest | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net Income Per Share - Basic | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net Income Per Share - Diluted | | | | | | | | | | | | |
For the six months ended July 31, 2009, our total revenue was $9.5 million, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 19.6%, compared with the prior year period of $11.8 million. Revenues from hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues, decreased 20.7% to $7.9 million for the six months ended July 31, 2009, from $10.0 million for the six months ended July 31, 2008. Hotel operations, including Food and Beverage operations, experienced a significant decrease in revenues during the first six months of fiscal 2010 due to lower occupancy and increased rate pressure. Expenses may not decline proportionately with a decline in revenues due to a high degree of operational and financial leverage in our hotel business.
Total expenses of $9.8 million for the six months ended July 31, 2009 were consistent with the prior year period total of $9.8 million. Total operating expenses of $9.0 million were also consistent with the prior year period total operating expenses of $9.1 million. The majority of the hotel operating expenses decreased due to lower occupancy, offset by an increase of $947,000 in hotel property depreciation expense for the current six month period, due to the reclassification of the hotel properties from “held for sale” to “held and used” during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009.
General and administrative expense was $1.6 million for the six months ended July 31, 2009, a decrease of $81,000, or 4.9%, from prior year period total of $1.7 million. The decrease was primarily due to reduced professional fees incurred by the Trust.
Total interest expense was $759,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2009, consistent with the prior year period total of $760,000. The Trust expects future interest expense to increase due to the interest rate floor implemented on its $850,000 line of credit.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2008
A summary of the operating results for the three months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 is:
| | 2009 | | 2008 | | Change | | % Change | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Controlling Interest | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net (Loss) Income Per Share - Basic | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net (Loss) Income Per Share - Diluted | | | | | | | | | | | | |
For the three months ended July 31, 2009, our total revenue was $4.0 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 20.4%, compared with the prior year period of $5.0 million. Revenues from hotel operations, which include Room, Food and Beverage, Telecommunications and Other revenues, decreased 22.9% to $3.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 2009, from $4.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 2008. Hotel operations, including Food and Beverage operations, experienced a significant decrease in revenues during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 due to lower occupancy and increased rate pressure. Expenses may not decline proportionately with a decline in revenues due to a high degree of operational and financial leverage in the hotel industry.
Total expenses of $4.9 million for the three months ended July 31, 2009 were consistent with the prior year period total of $4.9 million. Total operating expenses of $4.5 million were also consistent with the prior year period total operating expenses of $4.6 million. The majority of the hotel operating expenses decreased due to lower occupancy, offset by an increase of $468,000 in hotel property depreciation expense for the current quarter, due to the reclassification of the hotel properties from “held for sale” to “held and used” during the third quarter of fiscal year 2009.
General and administrative expense was $734,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2009, a decrease of $96,000, or 11.5%, from the prior year period total of $830,000. The decrease was primarily due to reduced professional fees incurred by the Trust.
Total interest expense was $376,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2009, consistent with the prior year period total of $375,000.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (FFO)
We recognize that industry analysts and investors use Funds From Operations (“FFO”) as a financial measure to evaluate and compare equity REITs. We also believe it is meaningful as an indicator of net income, excluding most non-cash items, and provides information about our cash available for distributions, debt service and capital expenditures. We follow 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 our case) as net income or loss (computed in accordance with 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 our 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, our FFO may not be comparable to other companies' FFO due to differing methods of calculating FFO and varying interpretations of the NAREIT definition. The following table shows the reconciliation of FFO to Net Income Attributable to Shares of Beneficial Interest:
| For the Six Months Ended July 31, | | For the Three Months Ended July 31, |
| 2009 | | 2008 | | 2009 | | 2008 |
| | | | | | | |
Net (Loss) Income Attributable to Controlling Interest | $ | (113,113) | | $ | 1,629,202 | | $ | (644,555) | | $ | 122,792 |
Hotel Property Depreciation | 982,305 | | 34,991 | | 487,402 | | 18,954 |
Loss (Gain) on Disposition of Hotels | 690 | | (20,755) | | 101 | | (23,475) |
Non-Controlling Interest Share of Depreciation and Loss on Dispositions | (216,609) | | (7,772) | | (107,258) | | (2,727) |
Funds from Operations | $ | 655,273 | | $ | 1,635,666 | | $ | (264,310) | | $ | 115,544 |
FFO decreased approximately $980,000 for the six month period ended July 31, 2009, reflecting a decrease of 59.9% when compared to the prior year period. FFO decreased approximately $380,000 for the three month period ended July 31, 2009, reflecting a decrease of over 100% when compared to the prior year period. The decreases were primarily due to lower occupancies and room rates resulting in less revenue during the period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Through our ownership interest in the Partnership, Yuma Hospitality LP and InnSuites Hotels, we have a 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. Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to our shareholders, is our share of these cash flows. Our liquidity, including our ability to make distributions to our shareholders, will depend upon the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from hotel operations.
We have principal of $406,683 due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year 2010 under mortgage notes payable. For the period between August 1, 2009 and July 31, 2010, we have principal of $835,461 due and payable under mortgage notes payable. We anticipate that current cash balances and future cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due. In the event cash flows from operations are insufficient to satisfy these obligations as they become due, we may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments.
We have no principal due and payable for the remainder of fiscal year 2010 or thereafter under notes and advances payable to Mr. Wirth and his affiliates.
We entered into an agreement for an unsecured bank line of credit on August 18, 2006. Under the agreement, we could draw $750,000, bearing interest at prime plus 0.5%, with interest-only payments due monthly. During specified times over the duration of the line of credit, we must pay the line of credit down to zero and are unable to borrow against the line of credit for a period of 30 days. The line of credit matured on May 18, 2008, was paid in full, and was replaced by an $850,000 revolving line of credit, as discussed below.
On March 3, 2008, we established an $850,000 revolving line of credit. The line of credit has no financial covenants, bore interest at Wall Street Journal prime (3.25% as of July 31, 2009) and originally matured on July 15, 2009. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2010, we entered into an agreement to extend the maturity date of the line of credit to June 30, 2010. This extension agreement implemented an interest rate floor of 6.25%, which was the effective rate as of July 31, 2009. The extension also granted additional security to the lender through a junior lien on the Yuma, Arizona property. As of July 31, 2009, we had drawn $135,047 of the funds available under the line of credit.
We may seek to negotiate additional credit facilities or issue debt instruments. Any debt incurred or issued by us 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 we consider prudent.
We continue 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 our properties. As of July 31, 2009, $125,438 was held in restricted capital expenditure funds and is included on our 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, 2009, the Hotels spent $480,478 for capital expenditures. We consider 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 $595,322 and $750,283 during the six-month periods ended July 31, 2009 and July 31, 2008, respectively, on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been charged to expense as incurred. The Hotels also spent $307,132 and $386,277 during the three-month periods ended July 31, 2009 and July 31, 2008, respectively, on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been charged to expense as incurred.
As of July 31, 2009, we have no commitments for capital expenditures beyond the 4% reserve for refurbishment and replacements set aside annually for each hotel property.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES
Other than lease commitments and legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. We do 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 our 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 our hotel business. To the extent that cash flows from operations are insufficient during any quarter, because of temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenue, we may utilize other cash on hand or borrowings to make distributions to our shareholders or to meet operating needs. No assurance can be given that we 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,” “will be,” “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.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of our 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 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of July 31, 2009 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, at January 31, 2009, management concluded that we had an entity-level material weakness related to certain of our employees who had incompatible responsibilities within our accounting systems. Management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2009, based on the criteria described under Item 9A(T) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2009, because we did not have evidence of effective processes to ensure that all journal entries and reconciliations were properly reviewed. During the period ended July 31, 2009, management implemented processes to document evidence of our controls and procedures and we are currently evaluating these processes for effectiveness. We expect that these steps, when taken, will correct the material weakness described above.
Other than as described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
