DOCUMENT INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE Definitive Prospectus dated February 6, 1987, as supplemented December 2, 1987 is incorporated by reference into Part III. PART I Item 1. Business Mission Valley Comfort Suites Ltd., A California Limited Partnership, formerly Motels of America Series X, A California Limited Partnership, (the Partnership) was formed on September 18, 1987 pursuant to the California Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership consisted of a general partner, GHG Hospitality, Inc. (GHG), and 918 limited partners owning 5,900 limited partnership interests. The limited partnership interests sold at a public offering price of $1,000 each commencing February 6, 1987 pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-18 under the Securities Act of 1933 (Registration 33-11224-LA). The offering of $5,900,000 was fully subscribed and closed on March 21, 1988. The Partnership was organized to lease a parcel of land in the Mission Valley area of San Diego, California and build and operate thereon a 122-room Comfort Suites motel as a franchise of Choice Hotels International, Inc. The land was leased from Colony Ventures Ltd., a nonaffiliated party, by Motels of America, Inc. (MOA) and the former general partners in November 1986, and was held for the benefit of the Partnership until the Partnership had raised sufficient funds to build the motel. MOA and the former general partners assigned the land lease to the Partnership for their actual carrying costs. The motel was opened for business in September 1988 under a twenty-year franchise agreement with Choice Hotels International, Inc. to provide the Partnership with consultation in the areas of design, construction, and operation of the motel. The agreement required the payment of initial franchise fees of $50,000 and requires ongoing royalty and chain-affiliated advertising fees based on a percentage of gross room revenues. Since January 1, 1990, the motel has been operated pursuant to a management agreement with GHG. The profitability of a motel is subject to general economic risks, the management ability of the operator, intense competition, desirability of a particular location, and other factors relating to its operations. The demand for particular accommodations may vary seasonally and may be affected by economic recessions, changes in travel patterns caused by changes in energy prices, strikes, relocation of highways, the construction of additional highways and other factors. To meet competition in the industry and to maintain economic values, continuing expenditures must be made for modernizing, refurnishing, and maintaining existing facilities prior to the expiration of their anticipated useful lives. There is no assurance that the Partnership's motel can be profitably operated. Further, there is no assurance the motel can be sold at a profit. Consequently, there is no guarantee of any profit or that the limited partners' investments will be preserved against loss. There is significant competition in the lodging market. The Partnership is in competition either directly or indirectly with a large number of hotels and motels of varying quality and sizes, including other motels which are part of national or regional chains. Such hotels and motels may have greater financial resources and personnel with more experience than the Partnership and the general partner. The San Diego area in particular has a large number of hotel and motel projects that in the aggregate could dilute average occupancy and affect profitability. The Partnership has no employees. 2 Item 2. Property The Partnership was assigned the land lease on September 18, 1987. The Partnership does not intend to acquire any additional property. Property name and address Property description ------------------------- ----------------------- Comfort Suites A 122-room "suites only" motel on 631 Camino del Rio South approximately 1.83 acres of land, San Diego, CA 92108 subject to a 60-year lease expiring in 2046. The Partnership was assigned the land lease and reimbursed MOA and the former general partners for approximately $218,500 in lease payments they paid prior to the assignment of the land lease to the Partnership. The Partnership completed construction and opened the motel in September 1988. In the opinion of the Partnership's management, the property is adequately covered by insurance. The property is subject to a trust deed with a balance of $243,758, as of December 31, 1995. Item 3. Legal Proceedings The Partnership is not subject to any pending legal proceedings. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders Not applicable. 3 PART II Item 5. Market for Limited Partnership Interests and Related Partner Matters There is no public trading market for the Partnership's limited partnership interests. There were approximately 918 holders of the Partnership's 5,900 limited partnership interests as of December 31, 1995. Cash distributions to holders of limited partnership interests totalled $216,000 ($36.61 per interest) in 1995 and $198,000 ($33.56 per interest) in 1994. Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Financial Condition: On February 6, 1987, the Partnership commenced its public offering pursuant to its Prospectus. On March 21, 1988, the Partnership completed the public offering. The Partnership received $5,117,287 (net of offering costs of $782,713) from the sale of limited partnership interests. These funds were available for investment in property, to pay legal fees and other costs related to the investments, to pay operating expenses, and for working capital. The majority of the proceeds were used to acquire and construct the property identified in Item 2 above. As a result of cost overruns related to the acquisition and construction of the motel, the Partnership borrowed $200,000 from the party that is the lessor under its land lease. The note is payable in monthly installments of $2,175, including interest at 8%, over a 20-year period. In 1994, the Partnership was notified by its franchisor, Choice Hotels International, Inc., that it was required to make certain improvements to its motel property in order to retain the franchise. In addition, the Partnership decided to make certain discretionary improvements to its motel property. The total cost of these improvements were approximately $148,000. The deferred rent liability represents amounts accrued under the Partnership's land lease prior to April 1, 1993. Under the original land lease, annual rent increases were based on the greater of 2-1/2% or the increase in the Consumer Price Index. The Partnership was required by generally accepted accounting principles to record rent expense and a deferred rent liability based on projecting the 2-1/2% minimum annual rent increase over the 60-year term of the lease. Effective April 1, 1993, the land lease was amended. Under the amended land lease, monthly rent payments were reduced from $30,138 per month to $20,000 per month. Annual rent increases are based on the lesser of the increase in the Consumer Price Index or 5%, and there is no minimum annual increase. Rent expense under the amended lease is significantly lower than under the previous lease. In addition, the deferred rent liability accrued prior to April 1, 1993 is being credited to income on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease. 4 Results of Operations: Net income was $223,984 in 1995 and $140,860 in 1994. Total revenues were $1,883,264 in 1995 and $1,719,199 in 1994. The property operated at an occupancy of 69.74% in 1995 and 65.26% in 1994. The average daily room rate was $58.36 in 1995 and $56.87 in 1994. The Choice Reservations System of Choice Hotels International, Inc. was responsible for 12,174 room nights in 1995, a 16.7% decrease from 1994. Reservations provided by Choice decreased in 1995 due to the opening of a newly-renovated Quality Resort approximately one mile from the Partnership's motel. In addition, the Partnership's motel was fully booked more often in 1995 than in 1994 and, consequently, reservations through Choice were restricted. Although city-wide occupancy rates are expected to increase slightly in 1996, the Mission Valley area remains overbuilt and downtown San Diego has become an alternative destination for both corporate and leisure travelers. To help prevent occupancy rates from falling, the Partnership will run advertisements in Los Angeles and Phoenix offering competitive, lower rates. The Partnership has increased its sales efforts to travel agents, group tours and other leisure travelers, as well as to business. San Diego is hosting several city-wide conventions during the summer months which should generate high rates at the motel, and the property manager continues to participate in co-op advertising committees to gain more exposure for the motel. Management has been informed that during 1996 a motel property approximately one mile from the Mission Valley Comfort Suites will become a Comfort Inn and Suites franchisee of Choice Hotels International, Inc. and participate in the Choice Reservations System used by the Partnership's motel. Due to the proximity of this motel to the Partnership's motel and the availability of suites, it will be in direct competition with Mission Valley Comfort Suites and will likely decrease the number of reservations that otherwise would have been received from the Choice Reservations System. Unless these reservations can be replaced from other sources, the Partnership may experience reduced revenues and net income as a result of this new franchisee. The effect of current operations on liquidity was net cash provided by operating activities of $397,692 in 1995 and $237,053 in 1994. The cash was used primarily for cash distributions to partners which were $240,000 in 1995 and $220,000 in 1994 and for investment property expenditures which were $124,718 in 1995 and $23,534 in 1994. Seasonality: The motel business is seasonal with the third quarter being the strongest due to the tourist business and the last half of the fourth quarter and the first half of the first quarter being the weakest. It is not unusual for the motel operations to have negative cash flow during this weak period. 5 Item 7.

THE PARTNERSHIP AND A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Mission Valley Comfort Suites Ltd., A California Limited Partnership (the Partnership), formerly Motels of America Series X, A California Limited Partnership, was formed on September 18, 1987 pursuant to the California Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The purpose of the Partnership is to construct, own, and operate a 112-room "suites only" motel under a franchise agreement with Choice Hotels International, Inc. The motel was opened in September 1988. The following is a summary of the Partnership's significant accounting policies: Cash and Cash Equivalents The Partnership considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Investment Property Investment property is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of 5 to 35 years. Maintenance and repairs costs are expensed as incurred, while significant improvements, replacements, and major renovations are capitalized. Franchise Fees Franchise fees are amortized over the 20-year life of the franchise agreement. Income Taxes No provision for income taxes has been made as any liability for such taxes would be that of the partners rather than the Partnership. Net Income Per Interest Net income per interest is based upon the 90% allocated to limited partners divided by 5,900 limited partner interests outstanding throughout the year. 14 MISSION VALLEY COMFORT SUITES LTD., A California limited Partnership Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) Note 1. THE PARTNERSHIP AND A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Note 2. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT Net income or loss and cash distributions from operations of the Partnership are allocated 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the general partner. Profits from the sale or other disposition of Partnership property are to be allocated to the general partner until its capital account equals zero; thereafter, to the limited partners until their capital accounts equal their capital contributions reduced by prior distributions of cash from sale or refinancing plus an amount equal to a cumulative but not compounded annual 8% return thereon which cumulative return shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the aggregate amount of prior distributions of cash available for distribution; thereafter, gain shall be allocated 15% to the general partner and 85% to the limited partners. Loss from sale shall be allocated 1% to the general partner and 99% to the limited partners. Note 3. FRANCHISE AGREEMENT The Partnership has entered into a twenty-year franchise agreement with Choice Hotels International, Inc. to provide the Partnership with consultation in the areas of design, construction, and operation of the motel. The agreement required the payment of initial franchise fees of $50,000 and requires ongoing royalty and chain-affiliated advertising fees based on a percentage of gross room revenues. Note 4. LONG-TERM DEBT The Partnership has a note payable which is due in monthly installments of $2,175, including 8% interest, through April 2013. The note is secured by a trust deed on the Partnership's motel. The balance outstanding was $243,758 as of December 31, 1995 and $250,080 as of December 31, 1994. The fair value of long-term debt approximates its carrying amount based on borrowing rates currently available to the Partnership for loans with similar terms. 15 MISSION VALLEY COMFORT SUITES LTD., A California limited Partnership Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) Note 4. LONG-TERM DEBT (continued) Principal payments on this note are due as follows: 1996 $ 6,847 1997 7,415 1998 8,031 1999 8,697 2000 9,419 Thereafter 203,349 -------- $243,758 -------- -------- Note 5. LEASE The Partnership leases the land underlying its motel under an operating lease which expires in 2046. Prior to April 1, 1993, rents were subject to annual increases based on the greater of 2- 1/2% or the increase in the Consumer Price Index. The total minimum rentals over the life of the lease, including the effects of the 2-1/2% minimum annual increases, were being recognized on the straight-line basis as required by generally accepted accounting principles. Effective April 1, 1993, the lease was amended to lower the rent payment to $20,000 per month. Rents are still subject to annual increases based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index, but the maximum annual increase is 5% and there is no minimum annual increase. The rent payment was $21,063 per month as of December 31, 1995. As a result of the amendment to the lease agreement, a deferred rent liability of $1,594,894, which was incurred prior to April 1, 1993, is being credited to income on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease. The Partnership is required to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance for the leased land and improvements thereon. Future minimum lease payments are due as follows: 1996 $ 252,756 1997 252,756 1998 252,756 1999 252,756 2000 252,756 Thereafter 11,605,713 ----------- $12,869,493 ----------- ----------- 16 MISSION VALLEY COMFORT SUITES LTD., A California limited Partnership Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) Note 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The motel is operated pursuant to a management agreement with GHG Hospitality, Inc. (GHG), the general partner. The agreement provides for the payment of monthly management fees of 6% of gross revenues. The Partnership has agreed to reimburse GHG for certain expenses related to services performed in maintaining the books and administering the affairs of the Partnership. GHG and an affiliate, Grosvenor Management Services, Inc. (GMS), allocate to the Partnership certain marketing, accounting, and maintenance salaries and certain other expenses directly related to the operations of the Partnership. Fees, reimbursements, salaries, and other expenses paid to GHG and GMS and included in total expenses for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:
