ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), effective as of July 1, 2015, is entered into by and between ASHFORD TRS YOUNTVILLE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Ashford TRS”, and also referred to herein as “Seller”), ASHFORD INC., a Delaware corporation (“Ashford Inc.”) and ASHFORD HOSPITALITY ADVISORS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Ashford LLC” and, together with Ashford Inc., referred to herein as “Purchasers”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Advisory Agreement dated as of June 10, 2015 by and between Ashford Hospitality Prime, Inc. (“Ashford Prime”), Ashford Hospitality Prime Limited Partnership, Ashford Prime TRS Corporation, Ashford Inc. and Ashford LLC, Ashford Inc. and Ashford LLC have agreed, from time to time, to contribute to a to-be-specified taxable REIT subsidiary of Ashford Prime or other affiliate of Ashford Prime, mutually agreed upon consideration to facilitate the acquisition of one or more properties by Ashford Prime if the independent board members of each of Ashford Prime and the Advisor have determined that without such consideration, the acquisition of such property would be uneconomic to Ashford Prime;

WHEREAS, on April 30, 2015, the independent board members of each of Ashford Prime, Ashford Inc. and Ashford LLC determined that the acquisition of the property associated with Bardessono Hotel and Spa located at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (“Bardessono”) would be uneconomic to Ashford Prime without additional incentives; and

WHEREAS, Ashford Inc. and Ashford LLC desire to purchase certain furniture, fixture and equipment associated with Bardessono owned by Ashford TRS for a purchase price of $2,000,000.00 with consideration of a combination of cash and shares of common stock of Ashford Inc., par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, and then shall lease such furniture, fixture and equipment to Ashford TRS rent free for a period not to exceed 75% of the economic useful life of such furniture, fixture and equipment pursuant to a certain lease agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the representations, warranties, covenants and other terms and the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Seller and Purchasers agree as follows:

Section 1.2. Prior to the Closing, Seller and Purchasers shall agree on the items to be listed on Schedule A.  After the Closing, upon mutual agreement by Seller and Purchasers, additional furniture, fixture or equipment can be added and existing furniture, fixture or equipment can be removed from Schedule A hereto by an amendment to Schedule A executed by both parties.

Section 1.2 Consideration.  At the Closing, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, as consideration for the sale by Seller of the FF&E, Purchasers agree to pay to Seller consideration consisting of: (a) 19,897 shares of the Common Stock, as having a value equal to $1,793,515.58 (the “Consideration Shares”); and (b) $206,484.42 in cash (the “Cash Consideration” and, together with the Consideration Shares, the “Total Consideration”).  At the Closing, Purchasers shall pay the Cash Consideration and shall issue and deliver to Seller a certificate representing the Consideration Shares with the legend set forth in Section 4.7.

Section 1.3 Lease.

Section 1.4 Further Action.  If, at any time after the date on which the Closing occurs (the “Closing Date”), Purchasers shall determine or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, certificates, affidavits, consents, assurances or other actions or items are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise transfer the right, title or interest in or to the FF&E sold by Seller to Purchasers, Seller shall execute and deliver all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments, certificates, affidavits, consents, and assurances and take and do all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in or to the FF&E or otherwise to carry out this Agreement; provided, that Seller shall not be obligated to take any action or execute any document if the additional actions or documents impose additional liabilities, obligations, covenants, responsibilities, representations or warranties on Seller that are material in nature and are not contemplated by this Agreement or reasonably inferable by the terms hereof.
