Seller has entered into the Management Agreement and the Franchise Agreement, where applicable, for the operation and management of the Hotel. At the Closing, Seller shall assign its interest in the Franchise Agreement, where applicable, and any Management Agreement with a Third Party Manager to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume Seller’s obligations thereunder arising or required to be performed on and after the Closing Date, subject to the consent of any Third Party Manager and the Franchisor, where applicable, to such assignment and assumption and subject to such amendments thereto as may be required or otherwise agreed to by Buyer (including, without limitation, such amendments as may be required to accommodate Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s Affiliates’ REIT structure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at Buyer’s option, in lieu of Seller’s assigning to Buyer Seller’s interest in the Management Agreement with a Third Party Manager and its interest in the Franchise Agreement, where applicable, Buyer and the Third Party Manager may enter into a new management agreement, and Buyer and the Franchisor, where applicable, may enter into a new franchise agreement, in each case effective as of the Closing Date, replacing the existing Management Agreement and Franchise Agreement, respectively, and containing terms and conditions acceptable to Buyer. In such case, Seller and the Third Party Manager and the Franchisor shall terminate the existing Management Agreement and Franchise Agreement, where applicable, as of the Closing Date, and Seller shall be solely responsible for

all claims and liabilities arising thereunder. With respect to a Management Agreement with an Affiliated Manager, Seller shall obtain the Manager’s consent to the termination of Seller’s existing management agreement with such Affiliated Manager, and Seller shall cause such Affiliated Manager to enter into a new Management Agreement with Buyer at Closing in substantially the same form as attached hereto as Exhibit I. With respect to a Management Agreement with a Third Party Manager and the Franchise Agreement, where applicable, Buyer agrees to apply for and use reasonable efforts, and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer, to obtain the Third Party Manager’s and the Franchisor’s written consent to the assignment to Buyer of the Management Agreement and the Franchise Agreement (or to a new management agreement and a new franchise agreement, as the case may be), together with the assignment to Buyer of all waivers of any brand standard necessary or appropriate for the operation of the Hotel under the Brand, and it shall be a condition to Closing for Buyer and Seller that the Third Party Manager and the Franchisor, as applicable, provide such consents. Buyer shall be responsible for paying all costs related to the assignment and amendment of the Management Agreement with a Third Party Manager and the Franchise Agreement (or to the termination of the Management Agreement with the Third Party Manager and the termination of the Franchise Agreement, as applicable, and the execution of a new management agreement and a new franchise agreement, as the case may be), including but not limited to, the payment of license, application, transfer and similar fees thereunder, provided that Seller shall pay all costs and fees of its attorneys and consultants and all costs associated with any releases or other provisions requested by or for the benefit of Seller, in each case, incurred in connection with such assignment and/or termination and execution of new agreements. Seller shall be responsible for (i) all costs of terminating Seller’s existing Management Agreement with an Affiliated Manager (including without limitation all termination and cancellation fees and/or penalties), and (ii) all costs of entering into a new Management Agreement with such Affiliated Manager. Seller shall use best efforts to promptly provide all information required by the Manager and, if applicable, the Franchisor in connection with each such assignment and amendment (or in connection with a new management agreement and a new franchise agreement, as the case may be), and Seller and Buyer shall diligently pursue obtaining each the same.

(c) Indemnification Procedure for Claims of Third Parties. Indemnification, with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by those not parties to this Contract (including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) The party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the party or parties from which it is seeking indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim for indemnification based on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.8, which notice shall state the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation to indemnify unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay.

(ii) If in any action, suit or proceeding (a “Legal Action”) the relief sought is solely the payment of money damages, and if the Indemnifying Party specifically agrees in writing to indemnify such Indemnified Party with respect thereto and demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of such Indemnified Party its financial ability to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, commencing thirty (30) days after such notice, at its option, to elect to settle, compromise or defend, pursuant to this paragraph, by its own counsel and at its own expense, any such Legal Action involving such Indemnified Party’s asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to settle, compromise or defend any such Legal Action, such settlement, compromise or defense shall be conducted in the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, but such Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information concerning such settlement, compromise or defense as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request from time to time. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to settle, compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall notify such Indemnified Party in writing of its

intention to do so within thirty (30) days of notice from such Indemnified Party provided above.

(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous subsection of this Contract, until the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Legal Action, the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. Furthermore, (x) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (y) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or (z) if a judgment against Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, in the Legal Action will, in the good faith opinion of Buyer, establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interest of the continuing business of the Hotel, the Indemnifying Party, shall not be entitled to assume the defense of the Legal Action and the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party, provided that, in the case of clause (z), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to approve legal counsel selected by the Indemnified Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If the defense of the Legal Action is handled by the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this subsection, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in conducting such defense.

(iv) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnified Party (w) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed as to the status of such Legal Action at all stages thereof, whether or not the Indemnified Party is represented by its own counsel, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party and its attorneys, accounts and other representatives, all books and records of Seller relating to such Legal Action and (z) the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Legal Action.

(v) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not make settlement of any claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be deemed unreasonable to withhold consent to a settlement involving injunctive or other equitable relief against Buyer or its respective assets, employees, Affiliates or business, or relief which Buyer reasonably believes could establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interests of its continuing business.

8.9 Liquor Licenses. As a condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Contract, (i) the Manager or an Affiliate thereof approved by Buyer shall have or shall have obtained all liquor licenses and alcoholic beverage licenses necessary or desirable to operate any restaurants, bars and lounges presently located within the Hotel (collectively, the “Liquor Licenses”) and, in the case of an Affiliate of the Manager, the Hotel has the right to use such Liquor License, (ii) if permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Hotel is located, the Manager shall execute and file any and all necessary forms, applications and other documents (and Seller shall

cooperate with the Manager in filing such forms, applications and other documents) with the appropriate liquor and alcoholic beverage authorities prior to Closing so that the Liquor Licenses remain in full force and effect upon completion of Closing.
