2.2 Purchase Price and Terms of Payment.

The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit shall be held by Escrow Holder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit shall be non-refundable to Purchaser (and shall constitute liquidated damages pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof) upon the expiration of the Due Diligence Period (unless Purchaser has, prior thereto, delivered to Seller its Notice of Purchaser’s termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 4.4 hereof); provided, however that the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit shall be refundable to Purchaser in the event of (a) a material uncured default by Seller of its obligations under this Agreement, (b) a failure of a condition precedent to Purchaser’s obligations as set forth in this Agreement or (c) as otherwise specifically provided by this Agreement.

The time when Escrow Holder so receives the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit and the copies of this Agreement, fully executed by the parties and executes and delivers copies thereof to Seller and Purchaser, shall be deemed the “Opening of Escrow.” Purchaser and Seller shall execute and deliver to Escrow Holder, in a timely fashion, such instruments and funds as are reasonably necessary to close the Escrow and consummate the sale and purchase of the Property (or the exchange thereof, if applicable) in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

3.2 Intentionally Omitted.

3.3 Deposit of Funds. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all funds deposited into the Escrow by Purchaser shall be immediately deposited by Escrow Holder into Treasury Bills or other short-term United States Government obligations, in repurchase contracts for the same, or in a federally insured money market account, subject to the control of Escrow Holder in a bank or savings and loan association, or such other institution approved by Purchaser; provided, however, that such funds must be readily available as necessary to comply with the terms of this Agreement and Escrow Holder’s escrow instructions (including the return of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit, or any portion thereof then on deposit with Escrow Holder, to Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement), and for the Escrow to close within the time specified in Section 5.1 of this Agreement.

Accompanying the Title Commitment, Escrow Holder shall cause to be furnished to Purchaser, to the extent available, legible copies of the documents affecting the Real Property referred to in the Title Commitment.

4.2 Title to the Real Property. Effective as of the Close of Escrow, but conditioned upon the Close of Escrow, Title Insurer shall issue to Purchaser Title Insurer’s C.L.T.A.

In connection with such review, during normal business hours during the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall be afforded the opportunity to review reasonably available books and records, including non-proprietary financial reports, the Franchise Agreement, and the Contracts pertaining to the Hotel which are in or under Seller’s control and relate to the operation of the Hotel, upon reasonable Notice, except that Seller shall have no obligation to deliver or make available to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall have no right to review, the Excluded Documents and the Proprietary Information. Except as otherwise authorized by Seller pursuant to this Section 4.3, neither Purchaser nor any of its employees, agents or representatives shall contact or otherwise discuss

this transaction and /or the operation of the Hotel with any on-site employees of the Hotel or otherwise contract any governmental authority with respect to the Property or the Land, in each case without the written consent of Seller.

Not later than ten (10) business days prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written list of all contracts and leases (but not Bookings) pertaining to or affecting the Property and/or the Real Property which Purchaser agrees to assume. If Purchaser fails to so provide such written list, Purchaser shall assume all such contracts and leases. Upon receipt thereof, Seller shall review such list and, not later than 5:00 p.m. California time on the date five (5) business days after the receipt thereof, deliver to Purchaser, in writing, Seller’s list of those contracts and leases which Purchaser has not agreed to assume that Seller will terminate (but Seller’s obligation to terminate shall be limited to those contracts and leases that can be terminated at no cost or expense to Seller) and a list of those contracts and leases that Seller will not agree to terminate. Purchaser shall have until 5:00 p.m. California time on the date two (2) business days after the receipt of Seller’s writing to then elect, in a writing delivered to Seller, to assume all such contracts and leases that Seller is not willing to terminate or to terminate this Agreement and cancel the Escrow. If Purchaser does not so elect to terminate this Agreement and cancel the Escrow, then Seller shall amend Exhibit “A” to this Agreement to so reflect the contracts and leases to be assumed by Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to elect to so terminate this Agreement and cancel the Escrow as provided herein, Purchaser shall assume all of such contracts and leases that Seller has not agreed to terminate.

Purchaser may, at its sole cost and expense, engage a third-party Certified Public Accountant to perform audits of the books and records of the Hotel, balance sheets as of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the Hotel, for the years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, which audits shall include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in connection with the performance of such audits and shall provide or cause to be provided any information reasonably requested by the accountants relating to such balance sheets, related statements of operations and cash flows for the Hotel. In connection with such audits, Seller shall provide or cause to be provided to the accountants performing the audits a representation letter acceptable to Seller in accordance with American Institute of Public Accountants professional standards.

During the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall also have the opportunity to conduct a Phase I environmental audit/study, a property condition report, zoning report and such other studies desired by Purchaser (subject to Seller’s consent rights set forth heein) of the Real Property, provided such Phase I environmental audit/study is not invasive or intrusive. Any environmental audit/study proposed to be undertaken by Purchaser shall be subject to Seller’s written approval prior to the commencement thereof, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. As a condition to any such consent, Purchaser shall obtain and maintain such public liability insurance in an amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) affecting the Real Property, naming Seller as an additional insured.

Purchaser, at all times, will conduct such due diligence in compliance with all applicable laws and in a manner so as to not cause damage, loss, cost or expense to Seller, the Property or the guests of the Property, and without unreasonably interfering with or disturbing any employee, tenant or guest at the Property. Purchaser shall not reveal to any governmental agency or any other third party (other than Purchaser’s employees, agents, attorneys, trustees, lenders and advisors) not approved by Seller the results of or any other information acquired pursuant to its inspections. Purchaser will promptly restore any damage to the Property caused by Purchaser’s inspection to its condition immediately preceding such inspections and examinations and will keep the Property free and clear of any mechanic’s liens or materialmen’s liens in connection with such inspections and examinations.

The cost of the inspections and tests undertaken pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be borne solely by Purchaser. Purchaser shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold Seller, Seller’s lenders, Tarsadia Hotels, and their affiliates, owners, agents and employees harmless from and against any obligation, liability, claim (including any claim for damage to property or injury to or death of any persons), lien or encumbrance, loss, damage, cost or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, whether or not legal proceedings are instituted, arising from the acts or omissions of Purchaser or its agents, employees or contractors occurring in connection with, or as a result of, such inspections, tests or examinations of the Property, except to the extent resulting from Seller’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Purchaser shall in no event be responsible under this Section 4.3 for any condition already existing on the Property prior to the time of the inspections, except and only to the extent that Purchaser or the inspections exacerbate such existing condition.

Purchaser covenants and agrees that all such information and materials disclosed and/or delivered to it by Seller, or Seller’s agents, employees and representatives, are confidential and proprietary information, and that Purchaser shall hold the same in strict confidence, and shall not disclose the same to anyone other than its agents, employees and advisors on a “need-to-know” basis subject to the confidentiality restrictions set forth herein. Purchaser also agrees that, in the event the transactions contemplated in this Agreement are not consummated as provided herein or Purchaser terminates this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall return all such information and documentation, and all copies thereof to Seller promptly upon Seller’s request and certify to Seller that it has destroyed all materials prepared by or for Purchaser and/or its representatives utilizing any such information and documentation.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, Seller makes no representations or warranties as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of any third-party materials, data or other information, if any, supplied to Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s inspection of the Property (e.g., that such materials are complete, accurate or the final version thereof, or that all such materials are in Seller’s possession). It is the parties’ express understanding and agreement that any such materials are to be provided only for Purchaser’s convenience in making its own examination and determination prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period as to whether it wishes to purchase the Property, and, in doing so, Purchaser shall rely exclusively on its own independent investigation and evaluation of every aspect of the Property and not on any third-party materials supplied by Seller. Purchaser expressly disclaims any intent to rely on any such

third-party materials provided to it by Seller in connection with its inspection and agrees that it shall rely solely on its own independently developed or verified information.

The obligations of Purchaser under this Section 4.3 (including its indemnification obligations) shall survive the Close of Escrow or the termination of this Agreement.

4.4 Notice of Non-Satisfaction. During the Due Diligence Period, by Notice delivered to Seller and Escrow Holder prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser may in its sole and absolute discretion, for any reason or for no reason, terminate this Agreement and cancel the Escrow, in which case the Initial Deposit shall be promptly refunded to Purchaser without further instruction from Purchaser or Seller (and notwithstanding instructions received to the contrary), and Purchaser shall return to Seller all information and documentation, and all copies thereof delivered to it pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3 hereof and certify to Seller that it has destroyed all materials prepared by or for Purchaser and/or its representatives utilizing any such information and documentation, and neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any further obligations under this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement).

If Purchaser provides Notice of its election to waive its right to terminate this Agreement as permitted in this Section 4.4 or fails to provide Notice of cancellation before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the state of the Property and the condition of title, and shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived its rights to terminate this Agreement during the Due Diligence Period and cancel the Escrow as a result thereof.

The failure of Purchaser to provide a Notice of termination or waiver prior to the expiration of the Due Diligence Period shall be deemed Purchaser’s irrevocable election not to so terminate this Agreement.

5.4 Recording of Deed. Escrow Holder will cause the Deed to be dated and recorded in the Official Records of the County of Orange, State of California, and all other conveyance documents deposited with Escrow Holder dated as of Close of Escrow, when (but in no event

after the Closing Date) Title Insurer is irrevocably committed to issue the Title Policy to be issued as contemplated in this Agreement, and holds for the account of Seller and Purchaser the items and funds (if any) to be delivered to Seller and Purchaser through the Escrow, after payment of costs, expenses, disbursements and prorations chargeable to Seller or Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

The amount of any documentary transfer taxes will not be posted on the Deed, but will be properly reported by a separate tax affidavit filed by Escrow Holder with the Deed.

5.5 Prorations.

5.5.1 Taxes. All non-delinquent real estate and personal property general and special taxes and assessments for the Property for the current assessment year, and whether due and payable or not, shall be prorated as of the Closing Date.

5.5.3 Utility Service. Seller shall request each utility company providing utility service to the Real Property to cause all utility ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to be closed and billed as of the Closing Date in order that utility charges may be separately billed for the period prior to the Closing Date and the period on and after the Closing Date. In the event any such utility charges are not separately billed, the same shall be prorated by estimating such cost on the basis of the most recent ▇▇▇▇ for such service; provided, however, that after the Close of Escrow, Seller and Purchaser shall prorate the amount of such utilities and pay any deficiency in the original proration to the other party promptly upon receipt of the actual ▇▇▇▇ for the relevant billing period. In connection with any such proration, it shall be presumed that utility charges were uniformly incurred during the billing period in which the Close of Escrow occurs.

MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. If any legal action is necessary to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, shall be the sole jurisdiction and venue for the bringing of the action.

12.2 Professional Fees and Costs. If a lawsuit, arbitration or other proceedings are instituted by any party to enforce any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement against any other party hereto, the prevailing party in such litigation, arbitration or proceedings shall be entitled, as an additional item of damages, to such reasonable attorneys’ and other professional fees and costs (including, but not limited to, witness fees), court costs, arbitrators’ fees, arbitration administrative fees, travel expenses, and other out-of pocket expenses or costs of such other proceedings, as may be fixed by any court of competent jurisdiction, arbitrator or other judicial or quasi-judicial body having jurisdiction thereof, whether or not such litigation or proceedings proceed to a final judgment or award. For the purposes of this section, any party receiving an arbitration award or a judgment for damages or other amounts shall be deemed to be the prevailing party, regardless of amount of the damage awarded or whether the award or judgment was based on all or some of such party’s claims or causes of action, and any party against whom a lawsuit, arbitration or other proceeding is instituted and later voluntarily dismissed by the instituting party shall be deemed to be the prevailing party.

12.3 Exhibits and Schedules a Part of This Agreement. The Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto are incorporated in this Agreement by reference and are hereby made a part hereof.

12.4 Executed Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document. This Agreement shall become effective upon the due execution and delivery of this Agreement to the parties hereto.

12.5 Assignment. Purchaser may not, and shall have no right or power to, assign, convey and otherwise transfer all or any part of its interest or rights herein without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be withheld in Seller’s sole discretion, and any attempted assignment without Seller’s written consent shall be void, invalid and unenforceable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Purchaser may assign and transfer all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one (1) or more wholly owned subsidiary(ies) thereof, or to an affiliate(s) thereof in which Purchaser is a sixty-seven percent (67%) or more equity owner thereof; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be released of its obligations under this Agreement as a result of any such assignment. Any assignment as permitted in the preceding sentence shall be conditioned upon Purchaser delivering to Seller and Escrow Holder, within forty-eight (48) hours of any such assignment, Notice thereof, together with a copy of such assignee’s organizational and formation documents and instruments, a Certificate of Good Standing for such assignee, and copies of the resolutions of Purchaser and such assignee authorizing such assignment. As a further condition to any such permitted assignment, Purchaser shall cause its assignee to execute an assignment and assumption agreement of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement (in form and content reasonably and mutually acceptable), and such other documents and instruments as Escrow Holder may reasonably request. Purchaser may also designate a subsidiary to take title to the Property at Closing by giving Notice to Seller no later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date.

12.6 IRS - Form 1099-S. For purposes of complying with Section 6045 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Escrow Holder shall be deemed the “person responsible for closing the transaction” and shall be responsible for obtaining the information necessary to file with the Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-S, “Statement for Recipients of Proceeds from Real Estate, Broker and Barter Exchange Transactions.”

12.7 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.5 hereof, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties’ respective successors and permitted assigns.

12.8 Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

12.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and Exhibits and Schedules and other documents and instruments attached to or referenced herein, contain all representations and the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the purchase and sale of the Property, and all prior and contemporaneous understandings, letters of intent, agreements and representations, whether oral or written, are entirely superseded. In executing this Agreement, each of Seller and Purchaser expressly disclaim any reliance on any oral or written representations, warranties, comments, statements or assurances made by Seller, Purchaser, and any of their respective affiliates, and their respective agents, employees, representatives, attorneys or brokers, as an inducement or otherwise, to Purchaser’s and Seller’s respective execution hereof. No amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and executed by the parties hereto.

12.10 Further Assurances. Whenever and so often as requested by a party, the other party will promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all such other and further instruments, documents or assurances, and promptly do or cause to be done all such other and further things as may be necessary and reasonably required in order to further and more fully vest in such requesting party all rights, interests, powers, benefits privileges and advantages conferred or intended to be conferred upon it by this Agreement, or to effectuate the termination

of this Agreement and cancellation of the Escrow (if otherwise permitted hereunder). The terms of this section shall survive the Close of Escrow and/or termination of this Agreement.

12.11 Waiver. The failure or delay (without regard to the length of time of such failure or delay) by either party to enforce or insist on the strict performance of any covenant, term, obligation, provision, right, option or condition hereunder, or to pursue any action, claim or right arising from any breach, default, or non-performance of any term, obligation or provision of this Agreement, shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver or forgiveness of such covenant, term, obligation, provision, right, option, condition, breach, default or non-performance. To be binding upon and against a party, any waiver must (a) be in writing, (b) be delivered to the party in whose favor the waiver is made (in accordance with the provisions of Article XI hereof), and (c) identify and specify, in reasonable detail, the covenant, term, obligation, provision, right, option, condition, breach, default or non-performance being waived; any purported waiver not complying therewith shall not be effective or binding on the parties hereto. In addition, any previous waiver for the benefit of a party may not be relied upon or be enforced by such party’s successors and assigns, and shall not be binding on the waiving party. Under no circumstances shall a waiver by either party complying with the provisions hereof constitute or be construed as a continuing waiver of any subsequent failure, default, breach or non-performance of any covenant, term, obligation, provision, right, option or condition under this Agreement.

12.12 Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for purposes of convenience only and shall not limit or define the meaning of the provisions of this Agreement.

12.13 Risk of Loss.

12.13.1 Risk of Loss. Until the Closing Date, Seller shall bear the risk of loss should there be damage to any of the Improvements by fire or other casualty (collectively “Casualty”). If, prior to the Closing Date, any of the Improvements shall be damaged by any Casualty, Seller shall promptly deliver to Purchaser a Notice (“Casualty Notice”) of such event. Upon Purchaser’s receipt of a Casualty Notice, Seller and Purchaser shall meet promptly to estimate the cost to repair and restore the Improvements to its condition immediately preceding such event and to replace the damaged Personal Property (the “Casualty Renovation Cost”). If the parties are unable to agree on the cost of restoration, the matter will be submitted to an engineer designated by Seller and an engineer designated by Purchaser, each licensed to practice in the state in which the Land is located, and the engineers shall resolve the dispute. Each party hereto shall bear the costs and expenses of its own engineer.

12.13.2 Material Loss. If the Casualty Renovation Cost exceeds (i) fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price in the event the Casualty is insured against, or (ii) ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price in the event the Casualty is not insured against, either party hereto may, at its option, elect to terminate this Agreement by Notice to the other party within five (5) days after the date that the Casualty Renovation Cost is determined, in which case the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit shall be delivered to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for any continuing confidentially and indemnity obligations as provided in this Agreement. If both parties hereto fail to timely make its election to terminate this Agreement, then the Close of Escrow shall take place as provided herein

without reduction of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign the insurance proceeds to Purchaser in the event the Casualty is insured against and credit the amount of the applicable insurance policy deductible to Purchaser or have the Purchase Price reduced by the Casualty Renovation Cost in the event the Casualty is not insured against.

12.13.3 Nonmaterial Loss. If the Casualty Renovation Cost is (i) fifteen percent (15%) or less of the Purchase Price in the event the Casualty is insured against, or (ii) ten percent (10%) or less of the Purchase Price in the event the Casualty is not insured against, then, in any such event, neither party hereto shall have any right to terminate this Agreement, but the Closing shall take place as provided herein without reduction of the Purchase Price, and Seller shall assign the insurance proceeds to Purchaser in the event the Casualty is insured against and credit the amount of the applicable insurance policy deductible to Purchaser or have the Purchase Price reduced by the Casualty Renovation Cost in the event the Casualty is not insured against.

12.13.4 Eminent Domain. If, prior to the Close of Escrow, (i) all or substantially all (or so much thereof so as to substantially and materially interfere with the operation of the Hotel) of the Real Property, (ii) any portion of the parking areas on the Real Property which results in there being insufficient parking for the operation of the Hotel as established by applicable governmental codes and regulations, or (iii) any access-way to the Real Property or any building with guest rooms is taken by condemnation or eminent domain, at the election of Purchaser this Agreement shall, upon the giving of Notice of such event or of the condemning authorities’ intention so to take the Real Property, terminate, and Purchaser shall receive a full and prompt refund of all sums deposited by them with Escrow Holder and/or Seller. If, prior to the Close of Escrow, less than all or substantially all of the Real Property shall be taken by condemnation or eminent domain, then, if any of the foregoing, in Purchaser’s reasonable opinion, materially impairs the value of the Real Property or any significant interest therein, then Purchaser shall have the option to (A) accept title to the Real Property subject to such taking, in which event at the Close of Escrow all of the proceeds of any award or payment made or to be made by reason of such taking shall be assigned by Seller to Purchaser, and any money theretofore received by Seller in connection with such taking shall be paid over to Purchaser, whereupon Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price without abatement by reason of such taking, or (B) receive a full and prompt refund of all sums deposited by Purchaser with Escrow Holder and/or Seller. Seller shall not settle, agree to, or accept any award or payment in connection with a taking of less than all of the Real Property without obtaining Purchaser’s prior written consent in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

12.14 Construction of Agreement. The parties hereto have negotiated this Agreement at length, and have had the opportunity to consult with, and be represented by, their own competent counsel. This Agreement is, therefore, deemed to have been jointly prepared. In determining the meaning of, or resolving any ambiguity with respect to, any word, phrase or provision of this Agreement, no uncertainty or ambiguity shall be construed or resolved against any party under any rule of construction, including the party primarily responsible for the drafting and preparation of this Agreement.

any future written modifications, unless otherwise indicated by the context. All words in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any number or gender as the context or sense of the Agreement requires. The words “will,” “shall” and “must” in this Agreement indicate a mandatory obligation. The use of the words “include,” “includes” and “including” followed by one or more examples is intended to be illustrative and is not a limitation on the scope of the description or term for which the examples are provided. All dollar amounts set forth in this Agreement are stated in United States Dollars, unless otherwise specified. The words “day” and “days” refer to calendar days unless otherwise stated.

The words “month” and “months” refer to calendar months unless otherwise stated. The words “year” and “years” refer to calendar years unless otherwise stated.

12.15 Tax Deferred Exchange. Seller and Purchaser (the “Cooperating Party”) each agree to fully cooperate with the other (and any owner of such other party) (the “Exchangor”) (including cooperation with any Intermediary (as defined herein) selected by Exchangor) to structure the acquisition of the Property as an exchange of property held for productive use in a trade or business or for investment within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended), and upon request, Cooperating Party agrees to execute additional escrow instructions, documents, agreements or instruments to effect the exchange; provided, however, that Cooperating Party shall incur no additional costs or expenses in this transaction, or be required to acquire, accept or hold title to any property (other than the Property), as a result of or in connection with any such exchange, unless because of Cooperating Party’s default hereunder or under any agreement executed by reason of this Section 12.15.

Exchangor agrees to indemnify, defend or hold Cooperating Party harmless from and against any and all additional costs, expenses, claims, demands, liabilities, losses, obligations, damages, recoveries, and deficiencies (such categories being collectively referred to herein as “Liabilities”) in excess of those Liabilities that Cooperating Party would otherwise have if the transaction contemplated in this Agreement closes as a sale transaction, and that Cooperating Party may incur or suffer, as a result of or in connection with (i) the structuring of the transaction contemplated in this Agreement as an exchange under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 and/or (ii) the execution of any documents in connection with the exchange. Exchangor’s foregoing indemnity shall not indemnify Cooperating Party for any Liabilities arising as a result of or in connection with any default by Cooperating Party under this Agreement or any default by Cooperating Party under any of the documents or agreements entered into by Cooperating Party in connection with the exchange or for any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Cooperating Party. Implementation of the exchange(s) contemplated in this Section 12.15 shall not be a condition to the Close of Escrow.

Exchangor, at its election, may substitute for any one or more of them, one or more persons or entities (“Intermediary”) as a party(ies) to the Escrow and this Agreement, in which event the Intermediary shall assume and perform the obligations of Exchangor under this Agreement (but without the release of liability of Exchangor for such performance), and Cooperating Party agrees to accept the performance by Intermediary and shall tender its performance to Intermediary.

12.16 No Public Disclosure. Purchaser shall make no public disclosure of the terms of this transaction without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent Seller shall provide via facsimile transmission or email within one (1) business day of Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s written request if such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with the publicly traded company responsibilities of Purchaser or its parent or otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law. Seller shall make no public disclosure of the terms of this transaction without the prior written consent of purchaser, which consent Purchaser shall promptly provide if such disclosure is reasonably necessary for Seller to comply with applicable law.

12.17 Covenants, Representations and Warranties. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all of the covenants, representations and agreements of Seller and Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Close of Escrow, except that all representatives and warranties of Seller shall survive only for a period of six (6) months after the Close of Escrow. By proceeding with the closing of the sale transaction, Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived, and so covenant to waive, any claims of defaults or breaches by the other party existing on or as of the Close of Escrow whether under this Agreement and any other document or instrument executed by the other party in connection with this transaction, of which the waiving party was aware prior to the Close of Escrow for which the other party shall have no liability.

12.18 Confidentiality. Other than as required or permitted by the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser shall not release or cause or permit to be released any press notices or releases or publicity (oral or written) or advertising promotion relating to, or otherwise announce or disclose or cause or permit to be announced or disclosed, in any manner whatsoever, the terms and conditions of the purchase and sale transaction for the Property, and nor shall Purchaser or its agents or representatives disclose, in any manner whatsoever, (a) the information provided to Purchaser by Seller or its representatives, or (b) any analyses, compilations, studies or other documents or records prepared by or on behalf of Purchaser, in connection with Purchaser’s due diligence investigation of the Property, without first obtaining the written consent of Seller (collectively, “Proprietary Information”). The foregoing shall not preclude Purchaser (i) from discussing the Proprietary Information with any person who is employed by Purchaser or who, on behalf of Purchaser, is actively and directly participating in the purchase and sale of the Property, including, without limitation, to Purchaser’s trustees, shareholders, partners, members, existing or prospective lenders, attorneys, accountants and other consultants and advisors, or (ii) from complying with all laws, rules, regulations and court orders, including, without limitation, governmental regulatory, disclosure, tax and reporting requirements; provided, however, that if Purchaser is required by applicable law or legal process to disclose any Proprietary Information, Purchaser agrees to furnish only that portion of the Proprietary Information which Purchaser is legally compelled to disclose and to use its best efforts to obtain assurance that, if possible, confidential treatment will be accorded to the Proprietary Information. Purchaser shall inform its respective representatives of the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information and shall direct them to be bound by the terms of this section. In addition to any other remedies available to Seller, Seller shall have the right to seek equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief or specific performance, against Purchaser in order to enforce the provisions of this section. The provisions of this section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Except as permitted pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, Purchaser agrees not to contact, directly or indirectly, any employees of the Hotel (and any agents or employees thereof) prior to the Close of Escrow, and agrees to be liable for all of Seller’s damages in the event of any such contact by Purchaser or any of its agents or representatives.

12.19 Limitation on Liability. In consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder, Seller and Purchaser agree that, in the event of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default of this Agreement by Seller or Purchaser:

(a) The sole and exclusive remedy shall be against the defaulting party and its assets;

(b) No owner of the defaulting party shall be sued or named as a party in any suit or action;

(c) No service of process shall be made against any owner or employee of the defaulting party (except as may be necessary to secure jurisdiction of the defaulting party);

(d) No owner or employee of the defaulting party shall be required to answer or otherwise plead to any service of process;

(e) No judgment may be taken against any owner or employee of the defaulting party;

(f) Any judgment taken against any owner or employee of the defaulting party may be vacated and set-aside at any time without hearing;

(g) No claims shall be made against Tarsadia Hotels;

(h) No writ of execution will ever be levied against the assets of any owner or employee of the defaulting party; and

(i) These covenants and agreements are enforceable both by the defaulting party and also by any owner or employee of the defaulting party.

In addition to the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, except as to Seller’s fraud, and except for a default by Seller of its obligations under the first paragraph of Section 6.2.1 hereof, Seller shall have no liability for the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, indemnity or other obligation expressly stated to survive the Close of Escrow (collectively, “Seller’s Post-Closing Obligations”), unless and until the aggregate amount of Purchaser’s out-of-pocket damages and third party expenses directly resulting from such breaches shall exceed, and then only to the extent the same exceeds, Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000). Furthermore, Seller’s aggregate liability under this Agreement (or otherwise) for the breach of any and all of Seller’s Post-Closing Obligations shall, in no event individually or in the aggregate, exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price. In no event shall Seller have any liability for punitive damages, consequential damages, or damages

for diminution-in-value, but shall only be liable for Purchaser’s actual out-of-pocket damages and third party expenses.

12.20 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Seller and Purchaser agree that there are no third parties who are intended to benefit from or who are entitled to rely on any of the provisions of this Agreement. No third party shall be entitled to assert any claims or to enforce any rights whatsoever pursuant to this Agreement. The covenants and agreements provided in this Agreement are solely for the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their permitted successors and assigns respectively.

12.21 Facsimile Signatures. The execution of this Agreement and all Notices given hereunder and all amendments hereto, may be effected by facsimile signatures, all of which shall be treated as originals; provided, however, that the party receiving a document with a facsimile signature may, by Notice to the other, require the prompt delivery of an original signature to evidence and confirm the delivery of the facsimile signature. Purchaser and Seller each intend to be bound by its respective facsimile transmitted signature, and is aware that the other party will rely thereon, and each party waives any defenses to the enforcement of the Agreement, and documents, and any Notices delivered by facsimile transmission.

12.22 Exclusivity. From the date of the last to occur of (a) the mutual execution of this Agreement by Seller and Purchaser and (b) the deposit by Purchaser of the Initial Deposit into the Escrow, until the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement, (ii) the default by Purchaser hereunder and subsequent termination of this Agreement by Seller as a result thereof, (iii) the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, or (iv) the waver by Purchaser of the Due Diligence Period, Seller shall not list for sale the Property (but Seller may consider, negotiate and accept back-up offer for the sale of the Property). Upon the expiration or earlier waiver of the Due Diligence Period (provided that Purchaser has not otherwise terminated this Agreement and cancelled the Escrow), until the earlier of the Close of Escrow or the default by Purchaser hereunder and subsequent termination of this Agreement by Seller as a result thereof, Seller shall not market the Property for sale and shall not solicit or otherwise accept offer to purchase the Property.
