                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Business Activities
- ---------------------------------------------------

The Company's  significant  business activities include  developing,  operating,
marketing  and financing  ownership  interests in resort  properties  located in
Arizona,  Colorado,  Florida, Indiana and Mexico. Effective in the third quarter
of 1994, the Company  expanded its  operations to include  marketing of skin and
hair care products which are not considered significant to resort operations.

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial  information  and the  instructions  to Form  10-Q and  Rule  10-01 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
notes  required  by  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  complete
financial  statements.  In  the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  and
reclassifications  considered  necessary for a fair and comparable  presentation
have been included and are of a normal recurring  nature.  Operating results for
the three and nine month periods ended  September 30, 1997, are not  necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending  December 31,
1997. The accompanying  financial  statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's most recent audited financial statements.

The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of ILX Incorporated
and its wholly owned and majority-owned  subsidiaries  ("ILX" or the "Company").
All significant  intercompany  transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Revenue Recognition
- -------------------

Revenue  from sales of timeshare  interests is  recognized  in  accordance  with
Statement of Financial  Accounting Standard No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real
Estate ("SFAS No. 66"). No sales are recognized  until such time as a minimum of
10% of the purchase  price has been received in cash,  the buyer is committed to
continued  payments  of the  remaining  purchase  price and the Company has been
released of all future obligations for the timeshare interest.  Resort operating
revenue  represents  daily room rentals and revenues  from food and other resort
services. Such revenues are recorded as the rooms are rented or the services are
performed.

Statements of Cash Flows
- ------------------------

Cash  equivalents  are highly liquid  investments  with an original  maturity of
three months or less.  During the three and nine month periods  ended  September
30, 1997 and 1996,  the Company paid  interest and income taxes and  capitalized
interest to resort property under development as follows:

The  financial  statements  for  prior  periods  have  been  reclassified  to be

Note 2 - Notes Payable

In June 1997, the Company negotiated a settlement  agreement for the 1996 breach
by a timeshare lender of a 1995 management  agreement between the lender and the
Company.  Under the management  agreement,  the lender committed to advance $3.5
million,  but  failed  to fund  $1.1  million  of this  amount.  The  settlement
agreement  provides for  repayment of the  outstanding  advances  through a note
payable in the amount of $2.4 million.  The note bears interest  commencing July
1, 1997, at 12% per annum,  payable monthly.  Commencing July 1, 1998, principal
is  payable  through  release  payments  upon  the  sale  of  certain  timeshare
intervals. Any outstanding principal and interest is due in full on December 31,
2002.  The note is  secured  by one  million  shares of ILX stock  pledged by an
affiliate of the Company,  for which the affiliate will receive a guarantee fee.
The  settlement  agreement  also  includes  the  termination  of the  management
agreement (which included a profit sharing  arrangement),  the commitment by the
lender to advance an  additional  $550,000,  bringing  the total  commitment  to
$6,550,000,  for the construction of Varsity Clubs of America - Tucson,  as well
as a  reduction  in  interest  rate to 12% (from  13%) on the  Varsity  Clubs of
America - Tucson construction note, and the addition of a fee of $100 per annual
Varsity Clubs of America - Tucson  timeshare  interest  sold. The settlement was
recorded as follows:

                 Increase in notes payable         $ 2,400,000
                 Decrease in accrued liabilities    (2,214,622)

                                                   ===========

In June 1997,  the Company  entered into an agreement  with one of its timeshare
lenders whereby the Company may borrow up to $5 million  against  consumer notes
from sales of  timeshare  interests  in Kohl's  Ranch  Lodge and,  in  addition,
whereby  the  Company in July 1997  borrowed  $1.5  million,  secured by a first
position deed of trust on Kohl's Ranch Lodge.  The existing  first deed of trust
on Kohl's Ranch Lodge of $444,500 was repaid in full in conjunction with the new
financing.  The $1.5 million borrowing bears interest at prime plus 4%, interest
payable  monthly and principal  payable  through  release  payments as timeshare
interests are sold, with a minimum principal payment of $80,000 due per quarter,
and the balance  due in full June 27,  2000.  Borrowings  against the $5 million
commitment for timeshare paper bear interest at prime plus 3.25% and are secured
by the consumer notes.

In July 1997, the Company borrowed $598,500 from one of its timeshare lenders to
purchase 285 timeshare  interests in Los  Abrigados  Resort & Spa. The interests
were acquired for  approximately  $567,000,  including  closing costs,  under an
option  agreement  whereby  the  Company  had both the option and under  certain
circumstances the obligation to purchase up to 667 intervals at a cost of $2,100
per interval. The July purchase was made at a negotiated rate that was less than
the amount specified in the option agreement.  Following this  transaction,  107
intervals  remain  subject to the option.  The  borrowing  is secured by the 285
intervals and bears interest at prime plus 4%, with a 13% maximum rate. Interest
is payable monthly and principal is payable in quarterly installments of $25,000
through September 2000.
                                       6

In September  1997, the Company  borrowed an additional  $800,000 from the first
mortgage holder on the Los Abrigados Resort & Spa and extended the maturity date
of the borrowing to April 1999.

During  the third  quarter  of 1997,  the  Company  borrowed  $1,309,269  on its
$6,550,000  construction financing commitment for the Varsity Clubs of America -
Tucson facility,  bringing the balance  outstanding on the loan to $1,609,269 at
September 30, 1997.

During the first nine months of 1997, the Company  borrowed  $1,651,427  against
consumer  notes  receivable  and also borrowed on its lines of credit,  of which
$200,000 was outstanding at September 30, 1997.

During the second quarter of 1997,  property and equipment of $97,181 was leased
and a vehicle was financed for $29,450.


Note 3 - Notes Payable to Affiliates

In July 1997, the Company issued 184,000 shares of its restricted  common stock,
which were subsequently  registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
in exchange for a $230,000 note payable to an affiliate. In conjunction with the
exchange,  100 timeshare  intervals in Los Abrigados Resort & Spa, which secured
the note, were released.

In August 1997, the Company acquired the Class B Limited Partnership Interest in
LAP,  effective  as of  January 1, 1997,  for a  purchase  price of  $2,920,000,
consisting of cash payments of $820,000,  the issuance of 100,000  shares of the
Company's  common stock valued at $1.25 per share and the issuance of promissory
notes in the amount of $1,300,000  and $675,000.  The  $1,300,000  note payable,
secured  by the  Company's  10%  Class B  Limited  Partnership  Interest  in Los
Abrigados, bears interest at 8%, with principal of $100,000 payable on or before
January 1, 1998 and principal  and interest  payable in annual  installments  of
$200,000  commencing July 31, 1998,  with any unpaid  principal and interest due
July 31,  2002.  Interest  from August 8, 1997  through  January 1, 1998 will be
added to principal on December 31, 1997.  The $675,000 note payable,  secured by
the Company's 11.5% Class B Limited Partnership Interest in Los Abrigados, bears
interest at 8%, with principal and interest  payable in annual  installments  of
$100,000  commencing July 31, 1998,  with any unpaid  principal and interest due

During the first six months of 1997, the Company issued to employees in exchange
for services  provided  71,000  shares of  restricted  common  stock,  valued at
$39,875.

Effective  January 1,  1997,  the  Company  entered  into a one-year  consulting
agreement for financial and business advisory services,  subject to extension on
a  month-to-month  basis at the  option  of the  Company.  In  exchange  for the
services to be provided, the Company granted options for up to 500,000 shares of
common stock  exercisable over a one-year period,  provided that certain options
were  exercised  prior to June 30, 1997.  Also  effective  January 1, 1997,  the
Company  entered into a separate  consulting  agreement  through  June 1997.  In
exchange  for the  services to be  provided  under this  agreement,  the Company
granted  options  for  500,000  shares  of  common  stock  at $1.25  per  share,
exercisable  through June 1997.  The  obligations  to fulfill such options under
both agreements were assumed by an affiliate of the Company effective January 1,
1997. All such options expired without exercise on June 30, 1997.

In June 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with EVEREN Securities, Inc.
("ESI") for ESI to act as ILX's exclusive  financial advisor,  investment banker
and agent  with  respect to  evaluation  of  alternatives  to  position  ILX for
long-term growth and to enhance shareholder value. In exchange for the services,
ILX issued 60,000 shares of ILX common stock on August 1, 1997 and will issue an
additional 60,000 shares on February 1, 1998. The shares issued and to be issued
have  been  valued at  $112,500,  and are being  amortized  over a  twelve-month
period. $28,125 has been expensed through September 30, 1997. In accordance with
the terms of the agreement,  ILX has registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission  the shares issued in August and will likewise cause the shares to be
issued in February to be so registered.  The parties intend for the agreement to
remain in effect for a minimum of one year.


Note 5 - Subsequent Events

In October 1997, the Company made a bid to acquire an approximate  5/8 undivided
interest in the common areas of and all of the  undeveloped  and unsold portions
of the  Roundhouse  Resort,  an  existing  59-unit  resort  with  five  acres of
developable  land located in  Pinetop/Lakeside,  Arizona.  The Company's bid has
been approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona,
with the closing expected in mid-November. The bid price is $700,000, to consist
of $525,000  in cash and  $175,000  in stock  valued at the market  price on the
closing date.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Sales of timeshare interests were 28.1% and 17.6% greater for the three and nine
months  ended  September  30, 1997,  respectively,  than for the same periods in
1996. The increases  reflect  greater sales from the Sedona and South Bend Sales
Offices,  sales to customers  already owning  interests in ILX resorts,  and the
opening of sales  offices in Tucson and the Phoenix  metropolitan  area,  net of
reduced  sales from the Kohl's  Ranch  Sales  Office for the first six months of
1997.

The  increase  in sales to  existing  ILX owners in 1997  reflects  an  expanded
marketing  program  whereby owners are offered the  opportunity to upgrade their
ownership  to a larger size unit,  to exchange  their  ownership  to a different
resort,  and/or  to  purchase  additional  time.  As a result  of the  increased
marketing  efforts to existing  customers,  revenue  increased to  approximately
$528,000 in 1997 from $202,000 in 1996 for the third quarter,  and to $2,232,000
from  $703,000  for  the  nine  months  ended   September  30,  1997  and  1996,
respectively.

Sales  of  timeshare   interests   from  the  Sedona   Sales  Office   increased
approximately  $395,000  and  $659,000  for the  three  and  nine  months  ended
September  30, 1997 from the same periods in 1996 due to increases in prices and
a greater  number of  timeshare  tours,  and in the first and third  quarters of
1997,  increased  closing rates (number of timeshare  sales divided by number of
timeshare tours).

Sales of  timeshare  interests  in  Varsity  Clubs of  America - Notre Dame were
$2,507,980  and  $1,823,887 and $5,726,925 and $3,879,491 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.  In 1997, approximately
$3,904,000  in Varsity Clubs of America - Notre Dame sales were  generated  from
the South Bend Sales  Office,  $1,779,000  from the Sedona Sales  Office,  which
commenced  offering  interests in Varsity  Clubs of America - Notre Dame in June
1996 and $44,000  from the Tucson  Sales  Office,  which  opened in August 1997.
Sales of  Varsity  Clubs of America - Notre Dame in the first six months of 1996
were primarily from the South Bend Sales Office. The increase in 1997 sales from
the South Bend Sales Office reflects higher closing rates and increased prices.

Sales of timeshare interests in Kohl's Ranch increased approximately $112,000 in
the third quarter of 1997 from the third quarter of 1996,  reflecting  increased
prices,  net of a reduced closing rate. Sales decreased  approximately  $306,000
for the nine months ended  September  30, 1997 from the same period in 1996 as a
result of lower  closing rates and a lower number of timeshare  tours,  which in
part were  offset by  increased  prices.  Second  and third  quarter  1997 sales
include  $109,395 in sales of Kohl's Ranch  interests from a sales office opened
on a trial basis in the Phoenix metropolitan area in late April 1997. The office
was not  retained  beyond  the  trial  period  (April - July  1997)  due to high
marketing costs and low closing rates.

In late August 1997, the Tucson Sales Office opened and began selling  timeshare
interests in Los Abrigados  Resort & Spa,  Varsity Clubs of America - Notre Dame
and Kohl's  Ranch  Lodge.  Sales from this  office were  $240,730  for the third
quarter of 1997.

The  increase  in cost of  timeshare  interests  sold as a  percentage  of sales
between years  reflects an  adjustment  to the  estimated  cost of Los Abrigados
interests in 1996.
                                       9
<PAGE>
The  decreases in resort  operating  revenue for both the third  quarter and the
nine months ended  September 30, 1997 from the same periods in 1996 reflect:  at
Los Abrigados Resort & Spa, increased occupancy by timeshare owners and exchange
guests, who pay substantially  lower rates than resort guests,  reduced food and
beverage  revenue  from these  guests,  net of  increased  average  daily rates;
increased  occupancy and average daily rates for both Varsity Clubs of America -
Notre Dame and Kohl's  Ranch;  and revenue  from  Lomacasi  Cottages,  which was
acquired on March 1, 1996. The increased usage of Los Abrigados  Resort & Spa by
timeshare  owners and exchange  guests in 1997 reflects in part  differences  in
timing  of usage as well as the  increasing  number  of  timeshare  owners.  The
increased  occupancy  at Varsity  Clubs of America - Notre Dame and Kohl's Ranch
reflects the maturing of  operations at these  properties,  both of which opened
during 1995.

Cost of resort  operations  as a  percentage  of  resort  operating  revenue  is
comparable  between  periods for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997.  The
increase  in cost of resort  operations  as a  percentage  of  resort  operating
revenue for the third  quarter of 1997 from the same  period in 1996  reflects a
change in estimated  depreciation  expense in 1996. 1997 costs for Varsity Clubs
of America - Notre Dame and Kohl's  Ranch as a  percentage  of revenue are lower
than 1996 due to increased  occupancy and average daily rate. 1997 Los Abrigados
costs as a percentage of revenue are higher than 1996 due to increased occupancy
by timeshare owners, who pay a lower rate for their usage.

The  decrease in sales of land and other and the  related  cost of sales for the
nine months ended  September 30, 1997 reflects the sale of a parcel of land held
by Genesis in the second  quarter of 1996.  Sales are  comparable  for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

The increase in interest  income from 1996 to 1997 is a result of the  increased
consumer paper retained by the Company and an increase in interest rates charged
by the Company effective July 1997. The Company  hypothecates  (borrows against)
the majority of its retained paper.

Advertising  and  promotion as a percentage  of sales has increased for both the
third quarter and nine months ended  September 30, 1997 from the same periods in
1996 due to increased costs of generating  tours to the Arizona sales offices in
1997, a low closing rate in the trial  Phoenix  office in 1997, a lower  closing
rate at the Kohl's  Ranch  Sales  Office in 1997 than 1996,  the  opening of the
Tucson Sales Office in 1997, and due to the recognition in 1996 of benefits from
premiums  issued to potential  customers in prior periods which expired  without
redemption. Increases in costs of generating tours in 1997 is due in part to the
trial of several new marketing  strategies  which were determined not to be cost
effective and therefore terminated in July and August 1997.

General and  administrative  expenses are comparable  between years for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.  General and  administrative  expenses
are lower as a percentage  of revenue in the third  quarter of 1997 than for the
same period in 1996 due to the  recognition in 1997 of a $114,929 gain resulting
from the  settlement of accrued  liabilities  and the purchase of assets from an
affiliate at less than the recorded amount.

The increase in the  provision  for doubtful  accounts for the third  quarter of
1997 from same period in 1996  reflects an  adjustment  to the provision in 1996
based on the expected  performance of the portfolio of consumer paper, both sold
and unsold. The provision for doubtful accounts is comparable as a percentage of
sales of timeshare  interests  for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and
1996.

Interest expense is comparable between periods and reflects increased borrowings
against  consumer  paper  retained by the  Company,  borrowings  against  resort
property  held for sale and debt  issued in  exchange  for the  purchase  of LAP
minority interest, net of payments.
                                       10
<PAGE>
The decrease in minority  interests  from 1996 to 1997  reflects the purchase by
the Company of the  minority  interest in LAP  effective  January 1, 1997.  1997
minority interest consists of operating losses of Lomacasi  Cottages,  which was
acquired March 1, 1996 and the minority  interest in operating  losses of Sedona
Worldwide Incorporated commencing January 1, 1997.

ILX  Incorporated  intends  from time to time to utilize the trade names  and/or
marks "ILX Resorts" and "ILX Resorts Incorporated."

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Company's  liquidity needs  principally  arise because it finances  consumer
purchases of timeshare  interests.  The Company  addresses such liquidity  needs
through the sale and/or  hypothecation  of the consumer  notes it generates.  In
that regard,  the Company has $5 million of credit issued by a financing company
under which conforming  notes from sales of interval  interests in Los Abrigados
Resort & Spa can be sold on a recourse  basis  through  March 1998. In addition,
the  Company  has an open  ended  arrangement  with a finance  company  which is
expected to provide  financing of notes from sales of interests in Los Abrigados
Resort & Spa of at  least $5  million  through  1997.  At  September  30,  1997,
approximately  $2.2 million is available  under the fixed  commitment line and a
minimum of $2.4 million is expected to be available on the open-ended  line. The
Company also has financing  commitments  whereby the Company may borrow up to $2
million  against  non-conforming  notes from sales of interval  interests in Los
Abrigados  Resort & Spa, Golden Eagle Resort,  Kohl's Ranch and Varsity Clubs of
America - Notre Dame, and $2.2 million  against  conforming  notes from sales of
interval  interests  in Golden Eagle Resort  through  March 1998.  Approximately
$900,000 was available under these commitments at September 30, 1997.

The Company  has a $10  million  open ended  financing  arrangement  whereby the
Company may sell eligible  notes  received from sales of timeshare  interests in
Varsity Clubs of America - Notre Dame on a recourse  basis.  Approximately  $3.5
million was available under this commitment at September 30, 1997.

The Company  has  financing  commitments  whereby it may borrow up to $5 million
against  conforming  notes received from sales of timeshare  interests in Kohl's
Ranch through March 1998 and $5 million  through June 2000.  Approximately  $2.2
million  was  available  on the first  commitment  and $5  million on the second
commitment at September 30, 1997.

The Company will continue to retain certain  non-conforming notes which have one
to two year terms or which do not otherwise  meet existing  financing  criteria,
and  finance  these  notes  through  internal  funds.  The  Company  will pursue
additional credit facilities to finance conforming and  non-conforming  notes as
the need for such financing arises.

The Company has a $500,000 line of credit each from two financial  institutions.
At September 30, 1997, $800,000 was available for working capital.

In June 1997, the Company negotiated a settlement  agreement for the 1996 breach
by a timeshare lender of a 1995 management  agreement between the lender and the
Company.  Under the management  agreement,  the lender committed to advance $3.5
million,  but  failed  to fund  $1.1  million  of this  amount.  The  settlement
agreement  provides for  repayment of the  outstanding  advances  through a note
payable in the amount of $2.4 million.
                                       11
<PAGE>
In July 1997,  the Company  borrowed $1.5 million,  secured by a first  position
deed of trust on Kohl's  Ranch  Lodge.  The  funds  were used to repay the prior
first deed of trust of $444,500, and the balance for working capital.

In July 1997,  the Company  acquired 285  timeshare  interests in Los  Abrigados
Resort & Spa for  approximately  $567,000.  The  purchase of the  intervals  was
financed by a $598,500  borrowing from one of the Company's  timeshare  lenders,
and is secured by the intervals acquired.

In  August  and  September  1997,  the  Company  acquired  the  Class B  Limited
Partnership  Interests in Los Abrigados for $820,000 cash, 100,000 shares of the
Company's  common  stock  valued at $1.25 per share and notes  payable  totaling
$1,975,000  secured by the  Company's  interest in LAP. The Company  borrowed an
additional  $800,000 from the first mortgage  holder on Los Abrigados to finance
the acquisition.

During  the third  quarter  of 1997,  the  Company  borrowed  $1,309,268  on its
construction  financing  commitment  for the  Varsity  Clubs of America - Tucson
facility.

Cash  provided by operating  activities  increased  from  $2,529,571  in 1996 to
$3,091,575  in 1997  due to  greater  net  income  and an  increase  in  accrued
liabilities,  offset by additions to resort  property under  development in 1997
and greater additions to resort property held for timeshare sales in 1996.

The increase in cash used in investing  activities  from  $3,299,538  in 1996 to
$5,115,572 in 1997 reflects  primarily an increase in consumer notes retained by
the Company and an increase in purchases of plant and equipment.

The change from cash used in  financing  activities  in 1996 of $341,205 to cash
provided by financing activities in 1997 of $719,211 reflects greater borrowings
in 1997.

Although no assurances can be made, based on the prior success of the Company in
obtaining  necessary  financings for  operations and for expansion,  the Company
believes  that  with its  existing  financing  commitments,  its cash  flow from
operations and the  contemplated  financings  discussed  above, the Company will
have  adequate  capital  resources  for at least the next twelve to  twenty-four
months.

Reports on Form 8-K
- -------------------

     (b)

     (i) The Company filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission a report
     on Form 8-K dated August 22, 1997, which disclosed the following:

     Item 5.  Other Events.

         On August  29,  1997,  ILX  Incorporated  ("ILX")  and Alan R.  Mishkin
     ("Mishkin")  entered into an Agreement for Transfer of Limited  Partnership
     Interest (the "Mishkin Agreement").
                                       12
<PAGE>
         Under the  terms of the  Mishkin  Agreement,  ILX is to  purchase  from
     Mishkin all of Mishkin's Class B Limited Partnership Interest (the "Mishkin
     LAP Interest") in Los Abrigados  Limited Partners  Partnership,  an Arizona
     limited partnership  ("LAP").  For accounting  certainty,  the parties have
     agreed  that  the  transfer  of the  Mishkin  LAP  Interest  shall  have an
     effective date of January 1, 1997. In consideration for the transfer of the
     Mishkin LAP Interest,  ILX shall pay to Mishkin $720,000 upon closing,  and
     shall  deliver a promissory  note in the amount of $675,000  (the  "Mishkin
     Note").  In addition,  ILX shall issue to Mishkin  100,000 shares of common
     stock of ILX. Closing under the Mishkin  Agreement is scheduled to occur on
     or before September 28, 1997.

         When issued, the Mishkin Note will be payable in annual installments of
     $100,000 (inclusive of principal and interest),  payable on July 31 of each
     year beginning July 31, 1998.  The entire unpaid  principal  balance of the
     Mishkin  Note and accrued and unpaid  interest,  if any, is payable on July
     31,  2002.  ILX's  obligations  under the  Mishkin  Note are  secured  by a
     Security Agreement covering the Mishkin LAP Interest (the "Mishkin Security
     Agreement").

         The above  descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to
     the Mishkin Agreement, Mishkin Note and Mishkin Security Agreement attached
     as Exhibits 10A, 10B and 10C, respectively, of this Form 8-K.

         On August 22, 1997, ILX purchased from Martori Enterprises Incorporated
     ("MEI"), all of MEI's Class B Limited Partnership Interest in LAP (the "MEI
     LAP Interest").  The purchase was consummated  pursuant to an Agreement for
     Transfer  of  Limited  Partnership  Interest  (the  "MEI  Agreement").   In
     consideration  for  transfer  of the  MEI  LAP  Interest,  ILX  paid to MEI
     $100,000,  and issued a promissory  note in the amount of  $1,300,000  (the
     "MEI  Note").  The MEI  Note  is  payable  by an  installment  of  $100,000
     (inclusive  of principal  and  interest)  on January 1, 1998,  and by equal
     annual  installments  of $200,000  (inclusive  of principal  and  interest)
     payable on July 31 of each year, beginning July 31, 1998. The entire unpaid
     principal balance of the MEI Note and accrued and unpaid interest,  if any,
     is  payable  on July 31,  2002.  ILX's  obligations  under the MEI Note are
     secured by a Security  Agreement  covering the MEI LAP  Interest  (the "MEI
     Security Agreement").

         The MEI Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are subject
     to  rescission by ILX at any time prior to the close of business on October
     15,  1997,  if ILX has not  acquired the Mishkin LAP Interest by that date.
     ILX anticipates that it will not exercise this rescission right.

         The above  descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to
     the MEI Agreement,  the MEI Note and the MEI Security Agreement attached as
     Exhibits 10D, 10E and 10F, respectively, of this Form 8-K.

     (ii)The Company filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission a report
     on Form 8-K dated September 22, 1997, which disclosed the following:

     Item 5.  Other Events.

         On  September  22, 1997,  ILX  Incorporated  ("ILX")  filed a No Action
     Letter Request (the "Request") with the Securities and Exchange  Commission
     (the "SEC").  ILX seeks an opinion from the SEC regarding ILX's proposal to
     transfer common stock of its  subsidiary,  Sedona  Worldwide  incorporated,
     formerly Red Rock  Collection  Incorporated,  ("Sedona")  to the holders of
     ILX's common stock on a prorata basis. ILX seeks to conduct the transfer as
     a taxable  dividend  without  registration of the Sedona common stock under
     the Securities Act of 1933.
                                       13
<PAGE>
         Prior  to  conducting  the  payment  of the  stock  dividend  to  ILX's
     shareholders,  ILX would  cause  Sedona to  undertake a stock split so that
     Sedona would have 4,000,000 issued and outstanding  shares of common stock.
     Thereafter,  ILX would  transfer  a total of twenty  percent  of the Sedona
     common  stock  to Todd  Fisher  and to a trust  held  by  celebrity  Debbie
     Reynolds in connection  with Personal  Services  Agreements that Mr. Fisher
     and Ms. Reynolds entered with ILX and Sedona.  Under those Agreements,  Mr.
     Fisher and Ms. Reynolds have agreed,  among other things, that Ms. Reynolds
     will endorse the Red Rock Collection line of face, body, bath and hair care
     products. (ILX contemplated merging Red Rock Collection with another wholly
     owned subsidiary, which then was named Sedona Worldwide Incorporated,  with
     the intention that the resulting  corporation would fulfill the obligations
     under the Personal Service Agreements.  Instead, on September 19, 1997, ILX
     elected to and did change Red Rock  Collection's  name to Sedona  Worldwide
     Incorporated  and  changed  the  name  of  the  original  Sedona  Worldwide
     Incorporated to SW Resorts Incorporated.  Accordingly, Sedona will continue
     to benefit from and be subject to the obligations contained in the Personal
     Service  Agreements and Sedona holds all the assets and  liabilities of Red
     Rock  Collection.  ILX will continue to hold SW Resorts  Incorporated  as a
     wholly owned subsidiary.)

         In connection with the dividend payment of Sedona common stock to ILX's
     common shareholders,  ILX's board of directors will establish a record date
     when and as the board deems appropriate. The record date will determine the
     identity of the ILX common shareholders who will be entitled to receive the
     dividend of Sedona's common stock when the subject shares are  transferred.
     In  connection  with the stock  transfer,  ILX proposes to place the Sedona
     common stock in escrow until the stock may be transferred to the identified
     ILX shareholders pursuant to the state laws of the states in which the such
     ILX shareholders  reside.  The  determination of when such transfers may be
     undertaken  in  compliance  with any  applicable  state law will be made by
     ILX's board of  directors on advice of ILX's  counsel.  The  transfers  are
     proposed to take place on a state-by-state basis when and as ILX's board on
     advice  of  counsel  determines  that an  exemption  from  registration  is
     available  under such state laws or ILX otherwise  qualifies the shares for
     transfer to the appropriate ILX shareholders.

         The above  description  of the  Request  and the  proposed  transfer of
     Sedona  common  stock is  qualified  in its  entirety by  reference  to the
     Request, which is attached as Exhibit 10A.

                  D.  Borrower has  requested  that Bank modify the Loan and the

AGREEMENT:
- ----------

For good and valuable  consideration,  the receipt and  sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, Borrower and Bank agree as follows:

1.        ACCURACY OF RECITALS.
          ---------------------

Borrower acknowledges the accuracy of the Recitals.

2.       MODIFICATION OF LOAN DOCUMENTS.
         -------------------------------

         2.1      The Loan Documents are modified as follows:

                  2.1.1 Upon the  execution of this  Agreement  and the full and
complete  satisfaction by Borrower of all conditions precedent required by Bank,
Borrower  may obtain and Bank shall be  obligated  to make,  one (1)  additional
advance to Borrower in the amount of Eight Hundred  Thousand and No/100  Dollars
($800,000.00),  which  funds  shall be used for the  purpose
                                       2
<PAGE>
of  acquiring  Alan  Mishkin's   ownership   interest  in  Borrower.   Upon  the
disbursement  of the  additional  Eight  Hundred  Thousand  and  No/100  Dollars
($800,000.00) to Borrower,  the outstanding unpaid principal balance of the Loan
shall be One Million  Seven  Hundred  Eight  Thousand One Hundred  Sixty-Six and
67/100 Dollars ($1,708,166.67).

                  2.1.2 The  maturity  date of the Loan and the Note is  changed
from June 5, 1998, to April 5, 1999. On the maturity date Borrower  shall pay to
Bank the unpaid  principal,  accrued and unpaid interest,  and all other amounts
payable by Borrower under the Loan Documents as modified herein.

                  2.1.3  The  term  "Timeshare  Documents"  as used in the  Loan
Documents shall include all amendments,  modifications,  renewals,  restatements
and  supplements  with respect to such  Timeshare  Documents.  Borrower and Bank
acknowledge that the definition of "Timeshare  Interval"  currently contained in
the Loan Agreement refers to a "1/9325  fractional  interest in the fee title of
the Premises" and that as a result of certain  amendments and  modifications  of
the  Timeshare  Documents,  the  fractional  interest  in the fee  title  to the
Premises with respect to Timeshare  Intervals  sold on and after August 31, 1997
is a 1/9325  interest in and to the  Premises  with  respect to each "Every Year
Membership"  (as defined in the Timeshare  Documents) and a 1/18650  interest in
and to the  Premises  with  respect to each "Every  Other Year  Membership"  (as
defined in the Timeshare Documents).

                  2.1.4 Section 2.7 of the Loan  Agreement is hereby  deleted in
its entirety and replaced with the following:

                  " 2.7 Servicing Fee. On September 1, 1997,  Borrower shall pay
         to  Lender  the  sum of  $12,000  for  the  Servicing  Fee  due for the
         succeeding year. On September 1, 1998, Borrower shall pay to Lender the
         sum of $7,000 for the Servicing Fee due for the succeeding  year (which
         fee  represents the full annual  Servicing Fee of $12,000  prorated for
         the number of months,  or portions  thereof,  from September 1, 1998 to
         the Maturity Date). The Servicing Fee represents compensation to Lender
         for its  administration and servicing of the Loan,  including,  without
         limitation,  preparation of Releases pursuant to Article VIII below. If
         the Loan is fully paid prior to the Maturity Date (other than by reason
         of  Lender's  exercise  of any  rights  and  remedies  upon an Event of
         Default),  any Servicing Fee paid by Borrower for the then current year
         will be prorated and the portion of the Servicing Fee for the remainder
         of such year will be refunded to Borrower."

                  2.1.5 Section 5.16 of the Loan  Agreement is hereby deleted in
its entirety and replaced with the following:

                  " 5.16  Loan-to-Value.  At all  times  during  the term of the
         Loan, the unpaid  principal  balance of the Loan shall not exceed sixty
         percent  (60%) of the value of the Project,  as determined by Lender in
         its sole discretion  based on (i) the Appraisals  obtained  pursuant to
         Section  5.15  hereof or (ii)  evaluations  of the value of the Project
         prepared or obtained by Lender's  appraisal  department  in  connection
         with any  modifications  of the Loan  Documents.  If for any reason the
         loan-to-value  ratio  exceeds said  percentage,  then
                                       3
<PAGE>
         Borrower shall,  within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice of
         such noncompliance from Lender,  reduce the unpaid principal balance of
         the  Loan,  or  deposit  sufficient  sums with  Lender  to  reduce  the
         loan-to-value ratio to at or below said percentage. For the purposes of
         determining  the  loan-to-value  ratio,  the  value of the  Project  as
         determined  pursuant to any Appraisal or evaluation shall represent the
         fractional  interest  in the  Project  encumbered  by the Deed of Trust
         (which  may be  adjusted  by  Lender  from  time to  time  in its  sole
         discretion as fractional  interests are sold and released) and,  unless
         otherwise  agreed  or  elected  by  Lender  in its  sole  and  absolute
         discretion,  shall not include the value of  Timeshare  Intervals  that
         have been sold or any amounts received,  or to be received with respect
         to the sale of such Timeshare Intervals.  Borrower acknowledges that in
         connection  with  the  Fourth  Modification  Agreement,   dated  as  of
         September 3, 1997, Lender, through its appraisal department has ordered
         and will obtain an Appraisal or  evaluation of the value of the Project
         and Borrower  agrees,  without  limiting this Section 5.16, that if the
         results of such Appraisal/  evaluation reflect a loan-to-value ratio of
         greater  than sixty  percent  (60%),  Borrower  will  comply  with this
         Section 5.16."

                  2.1.6 Section 5.6 of the Loan  Agreement is hereby  amended to
include the following subsections 5.6(vi) and 5.6(vii):

                  " (vi) as soon as the same  are  available,  and in any  event
         within one hundred  twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year
         of  Guarantor,  Borrower  shall  furnish  to  Lender  a copy of (A) the
         balance  sheet of  Guarantor  as of the end of such  fiscal  year,  (B)
         statements  of income and expenses of  Guarantor  for such fiscal year,
         and a statement of changes in financial  position of Guarantor from the
         previous fiscal year (together with comparable figures for the previous
         fiscal year), and (C) a cash flow statement of Guarantor,  all of which
         shall have been audited by an independent  Certified Public Accountant,
         satisfactory  to Lender in its sole  discretion,  who shall  deliver an
         unqualified opinion as to such financial statements to Lender. Borrower
         shall also provide Lender with such other  information  with respect to
         the  condition of Guarantor as Lender may from time to time  reasonably
         request; and

                  " (vii) as soon as the same are  available,  and in any  event
         within  sixty  (60)  days  after  the end of  each  fiscal  quarter  of
         Guarantor,  Borrower  shall furnish to Lender a copy of all 1OQ reports
         of Guarantor filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission."

                  2.1.7  Paragraph  17(b) of the  Repayment  Guaranty  is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

                  " (b) As of the end of each fiscal  quarter,  a Debt to Equity
         Percentage  equal  to or  less  than  4.25 to  1.00.  "Debt  to  Equity
         Percentage" means the result obtained by dividing (i) Debt of Guarantor
         by (ii) Tangible Net Worth. "Debt" means,  without limitation,  (a) any
         indebtedness  for borrowed  money,  (b) all  indebtedness  evidenced by
         bonds,  debentures,   notes,  letters  of  credit,  drafts  or  similar
         instruments, (c) all indebtedness to pay the deferred purchase price of
         property or services,  but not including  accounts  payable and accrued
         expenses   arising  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business,   (d)  all
                                       4

         capitalized lease obligations, (e) all Debt of others secured by a lien
         on any  asset,  whether or not such Debt is  assumed  by  Guarantor  or

         Guarantor and all other  indebtedness  that would appear as a liability
         upon a balance sheet of Guarantor prepared in accordance with GAAP."

         2.2 Each of the Loan  Documents is modified to provide that it shall be
a default or an event of default  thereunder  if  Borrower  shall fail to comply
with  any of the  covenants  of  Borrower  herein  or if any  representation  or
warranty  by Borrower  herein or by any  guarantor  in any  related  Consent and
Agreement of Guarantors is materially incomplete, incorrect, or misleading as of

full force and effect as modified herein. Any property or rights to or interests
in property  granted as security in the Loan Documents  shall remain as security

            ----------------------------------------

Borrower represents and warrants to Bank:

foreclosure, and under a deed of trust either by exercise of power of sale or by
judicial  foreclosure.  The institution and maintenance of any remedy  permitted
above shall not  constitute a waiver of the rights to submit any  controversy or

similar  doctrines which would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a
party shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding.

                       -----------------------------------

With  respect to the Fourth  Modification  Agreement,  dated  September  3, 1997
("Agreement"),  between LOS ABRIGADOS PARTNERS LIMITED  PARTNERSHIP,  an Arizona
limited partnership  ("Borrower") and BANK ONE, ARIZONA,  NA, a national banking
association  ("Bank"),  the  undersigned  (individually  and,  if more than one,
collectively "Guarantor") agrees for the benefit of Bank as follows:

                  1. Guarantor  acknowledges (i) receiving a copy of and reading
the Agreement, (ii) the accuracy of the Recitals in the Agreement, and (iii) the
effectiveness   of  (A)  the   Repayment   Guaranty,   dated  January  25,  1996
("Guaranty"),  by the undersigned  for the benefit of Bank, as modified  herein,
and (B) any other agreements,  documents,  or instruments  securing or otherwise
relating  to  the  Guaranty  (including,  without  limitation,  any  arbitration
resolution  and  any  environmental   certification   and  indemnity   agreement
previously  executed and delivered by the undersigned),  as modified herein. The
Guaranty and such other  agreements,  documents,  and  instruments,  as modified
herein,  are  referred  to  individually  and  collectively  as  the  "Guarantor
Documents".  All capitalized  terms used herein and not otherwise  defined shall
have the meaning given to such terms in the Agreement.

                  2.  Guarantor   consents  to  the  modification  of  the  Loan

arbitration provisions set forth in Section 11.1 of the Agreement.

                  3.  Guarantor  fully,   finally,   and  forever  releases  and
discharges Bank and its successors,  assigns,  directors,  officers,  employees,

Documents,  or the Guarantor  Documents  and (ii) arising from events  occurring
prior to the date hereof.

                  4. Guarantor agrees that all references,  if any, to the Note,
the Loan Agreement,  the Deed of Trust, the Collateral Assignment,  the Security
Agreement,  the Security  Documents,  and the Loan  Documents  in the  Guarantor
Documents  shall  be  deemed  to  refer  to  such  agreements,   documents,  and
instruments as modified by the Agreement.  Accordingly,  the Guarantor Documents
are modified  to,  among other  things,  (i)  increase  the  outstanding  unpaid
principal  amount  of  indebtedness  of  Borrower  to Bank from  $908,166.67  to

                  5. Guarantor reaffirms the Guarantor Documents and agrees that
the Guarantor  Documents continue in full force and effect and remain unchanged,
except as specifically modified by this Consent and Agreement of Guarantors. Any
property  or rights to or  interests  in  property  granted as  security  in the
Guarantor   Documents  shall  remain  as  security  for  the  Guaranty  and  the
obligations of Guarantor in the Guaranty.

                  6. Guarantor  represents and warrants that the Loan Documents,
as modified by the Agreement,  and the Guarantor Documents,  as modified by this
Consent  and  Agreement  of  Guarantors,  are  the  legal,  valid,  and  binding
obligations  of  Borrower  and the  undersigned,  respectively,  enforceable  in
accordance with their terms against Borrower and the undersigned, respectively.

                  7.  Guarantor  represents  and warrants that  Guarantor has no
claims,  counterclaims,  defenses,  or off sets with respect to the  enforcement
against Guarantor of the Guarantor Documents.

                  8.  Guarantor  represents  and warrants that there has been no
material  adverse  change in the financial  condition of any Guarantor  from the
most recent financial statement received by Bank.

                  9.  Guarantor  agrees  that  this  Consent  and  Agreement  of
Guarantors may be executed in one or more  counterparts,  each of which shall be
deemed an original and all of which together  shall  constitute one and the same
document.   Signature  and  acknowledgment   pages  may  be  detached  from  the
