WHEREAS, Hill Path, certain of its affiliates, the Company and Lord Central Opportunity V Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Seller”), as of the date hereof, have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Hill Path has agreed to purchase from Seller, and Seller has agreed to sell to Hill Path, shares of Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Company is entering into this Agreement as a condition to Hill Path’s willingness to enter into the Stock Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and Hill Path are entering into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), providing for certain registration rights which the Company is granting to Hill Path;

WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company and Hill Path wish to set forth certain understandings between such parties, including with respect to certain governance matters; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Hill Path wish the rights and obligations set forth herein to become automatically effective simultaneously with the Closing.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and reliance upon the mutual, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Appointment and Nomination.

(a) The Company agrees that, in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and Third Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended from time to time, the “Bylaws”) and Delaware Law, and effective immediately following the later of the Closing and the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, the Board shall (i) if there are not sufficient vacant seats on the Board at such time to be filled by the Hill Path Designees pursuant to Section 1(b), expand the size of the Board to create the number of vacancies to be filled by the Hill Path Designees pursuant to Section 1(b) and (ii) subject to Sections 1(d) and 1(e), appoint Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx (or his replacement as chosen in accordance with Section 1(f)) to fill a vacancy on the Board.

(b) From and after the later of the Closing and the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 1, Hill Path shall have the right (but not the obligation) to designate a number of individuals as Directors (each, a “Hill Path Designee”) equal to (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the Total Share Ownership of the Hill Path Affiliates divided by (B) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding multiplied by (ii) the then-current number of authorized directorships on the Board (rounded up or down, as applicable, to the nearest whole number); provided, that the number of Hill Path Designees shall not exceed three (3). It is understood and agreed that Xx. Xxxxx X. Xxxx is a Xxxx Path Designee. The Company will recommend, support and solicit proxies for the election of the Hill Path Designees in the same manner as it recommends, supports and solicits proxies for the election of the Company’s other Director nominees.

(c) The Company agrees that at all times at least one (1) Hill Path Designee shall be appointed to each committee of the Board (as determined by Hill Path and approved by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (“NCGC”), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, that with respect to any such committee appointment, each Hill Path Designee is and continues to remain eligible to serve as a member of such committee pursuant to applicable Law and the listing standards of the Exchange, if any, that are applicable to the composition of such a committee. The Board shall take all actions necessary to ensure that the Hill Path Designees have proportional representation (but no less than one Hill Path Designee) on any executive committee of the Board formed on or after the date of this Agreement; provided, that with respect to such committee appointment, each Hill Path Designee is and continues to remain eligible to serve as a member of such committee pursuant to applicable Law and the applicable listing standards of the Exchange. Each Hill Path Designee may attend any meeting of any committee on a non-voting basis, if such attendance would not present an actual or potential conflict of interest for such Hill Path Designee in the good faith opinion of the applicable committee.

(d) Each Hill Path Designee shall, at the time of his or her nomination or appointment as a Director and at all times thereafter until such individual ceases to serve as a Director: (i) not be involved in any of the events enumerated in Item 2(d) or Item 2(e) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act; and (ii) not be an employee, officer, or director of, or consultant to, or be receiving any compensation or benefits from, any Person described in clause (a) of the definition of Restricted Entity (unless otherwise agreed to by the NCGC). Each Hill Path Designee (other than Xxxxx Xxxx) shall be interviewed by the NCGC on the same basis as any other new candidate for appointment or election to the Board and approved by the NCGC, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Not more than two (2) Hill Path Designees may be a Hill Path Affiliated Director, and any other Hill Path Designee that is not a Hill Path Affiliated Director shall qualify as independent under applicable Exchange rules. Each new Hill Path Designee shall provide to the Company a completed D&O Questionnaire in the form then-used by the Company and shall consent to customary background checks and credit reviews by the Company. Each new Hill Path Designee shall receive the Company’s customary new Director orientation and shall be required to enter into the Company’s form of Director Confidentiality Agreement.

(e) Hill Path acknowledges that, at the time of his or her appointment as a Director and at all times while any Hill Path Affiliated Director serves as a member of the Board, each such Hill Path Affiliated Director shall, and Hill Path shall cause each such Hill Path Affiliated Director to, comply with all current and future policies, procedures, processes, codes, rules, standards and guidelines applicable to all Board members (or any applicable subset thereof) (the “Company Policies”) (and any future policies to be so provided promptly following adoption thereof), including, without limitation, the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and all trading and confidentiality obligations and guidelines (including the obligation to preserve the confidentiality of all information, whether written or oral, received in one’s capacity as a Director), subject to the following:

(i) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained therein and except to the extent the Board reasonably determines is required by applicable Law, no Company Policy (whether currently in effect or adopted after the date hereof and including the Company’s Securities Trading Policy) shall apply to a Hill Path Designee from after the time such Hill Path Designee ceases to be a member of the Board, but, for the avoidance of doubt, Hill Path acknowledges and agrees that (A) it is aware, and will advise each of the Hill Path Affiliates and other representatives who are informed as to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, that the United States securities laws may prohibit any Person who directly or indirectly has received from an issuer material, non-public information from purchasing or selling securities of such issuer or from communicating such information to any other Person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such Person is likely to purchase or sell such securities and (B) certain of Hill Path’s and the Hill Path Affiliated Director’s obligations set forth in the Undertaking Agreement, or in the Director Confidentiality Agreement referred to in the Undertaking Agreement shall continue after the time a Hill Path Affiliated Director ceases to be a member of the Board;

(ii) subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Undertaking Agreement, the Hill Path Affiliated Directors are permitted to and may provide information to the Hill Path Associates (as defined therein);

(iii) the General Counsel will consider any requests for pre-clearance under the Company’s Securities Trading Policy or any similar policy in good faith; and

(iv) all future Company Policies, including any amendment or supplement to any existing Company Policies, shall (A) be adopted in good faith and (B) not be inconsistent in any material respect with Hill Path’s rights under this Agreement, the Undertaking Agreement or any other agreement to which the Company and Hill Path are party (except to the extent required by applicable law).

(f) If, prior to the termination of this Agreement, (i) a Hill Path Designee resigns (including by reason of a change in principal business occupation or position or service on additional boards), is removed or refuses to serve, or if a Hill Path Designee is unable to serve due to death or disability, in each case provided that such Hill Path Designee is otherwise then entitled to be appointed, to be nominated or to serve, as applicable, as a Director of the Company pursuant to this Agreement, then Hill Path may, in its sole discretion, select a replacement Director to serve as a Hill Path Designee who is (A) reasonably acceptable to the NCGC (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and who shall (B) be permitted to serve as a Director pursuant to this Section 1, and thereafter such individual shall be promptly appointed to the Board to fill the remaining term of such Hill Path Designee and shall be considered to be a “Hill Path Designee” under this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company’s obligations under this Section 1 shall terminate immediately if either (i) Hill Path ceases to satisfy the Minimum Condition, (ii) the consummation of a Transfer to a Hill Path Stake Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 4(b)(i) or (iii) any Hill Path Affiliate is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have breached any of the terms of this Agreement or the Undertaking Agreement, in each case, in any material respect (the “Material Terms”), and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt by Hill Path of written notice from the Company specifying such breach. In furtherance of this Section 1(g), each Hill Path Designee will, prior to and as a condition to such Hill Path Designee’s appointment to the Board, execute an irrevocable resignation letter in the form of Exhibit B (the “Irrevocable Resignation Letter”) and deliver it to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of the Company’s obligations under this Section 1 terminating or a decrease in the number of Hill Path Designees that Hill Path is entitled to nominate in accordance with Section 1(b) (including as a result of a termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms), the Irrevocable Resignation Letter shall become effective only after the NCGC has concluded that the applicable Hill Path Designee(s) should resign. As used herein, “Minimum Condition” means the Total Share Ownership of Hill Path (together with its Affiliates or “Associates” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act; provided, that the term “associates” in such definition shall be deemed to be preceded by the word “controlled”, as such term is defined in Rule 12-b-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively with Hill Path, the “Hill Path Affiliates”)) is at least 5.0% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Hill Path shall notify the Company promptly in the event (and in no less than three (3) Business Days after) the Hill Path Affiliates cease to satisfy the Minimum Condition. For purposes of calculating the Minimum Condition, the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding at any time (x) shall be based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as most recently disclosed by the Company on the cover of a publicly filed Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or (y) shall be otherwise communicated in writing by the Company to Hill Path, either in response to a request from Hill Path or as separately initiated by the Company.

(h) The Company shall at all times provide (i) each Hill Path Designee (in his or her capacity as a member of the Board) with the same rights to indemnification, advancement or reimbursement of expenses and exculpation that it provides to other Directors, and (ii) any reimbursement of travel and travel-related expenses incurred by any employee of Hill Path or any entity that manages an investment fund of a Hill Path Affiliate, in each case, that are submitted in a timely manner in connection with activities related directly for or on behalf of the Company and consistent with the expense reimbursement policy of the Company; provided, that the Board may review such expenses in this subclause (ii) to determine reasonableness.

(i) Hill Path acknowledges and shall cause the Hill Path Designees to acknowledge in writing that the Hill Path Designees shall have all of the rights and obligations, including fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders, of a Director under applicable Law and the Company’s organizational documents while the Hill Path Designee is serving on the Board.

(j) Without the prior approval of Hill Path, the Board shall not increase in size to more than nine (9) Directors; provided, that the size of the Board shall be not more than ten (10) Directors until the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders.

2. Standstill.

(d) Voting with Respect to Other Matters. At any meeting of stockholders of the Company at which any matter, other than an Other Specified Matter or a matter that is subject to Section 3(a), Section 3(b) or Section 3(c), is submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company (or if action is taken with respect to such matter(s) by written consent of stockholders of the Company in lieu of a meeting), the Hill Path Affiliates shall vote, or cause to be voted (including by abstaining or, if applicable, taking action by written consent), all Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Hill Path Affiliates in excess of the Voting Percentage Limit, at their sole discretion, either (i) affirmatively in favor of the recommendation of the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board, in each case acting by a majority of disinterested Directors with respect to such matters or (ii) in the same proportion as the Voting Securities not Beneficially Owned by the Hill Path Affiliates are voted (including by written consent) for or against, or abstain with respect to such matter (it being understood that the Hill Path Affiliates must elect to vote as contemplated by subclause (i) or (ii) of this Section 3(d) and cannot elect not to vote or to vote in any other manner).

(vi) a Transfer in connection with any bona fide mortgage, encumbrance or pledge to a financial institution in connection with any bona fide loan or debt transaction or enforcement thereunder; provided, that as a condition to such financial institution’s ability to take ownership of any shares of Common Stock in connection with enforcement under any such loan or debt transaction, such financial institution or its assignee (as applicable) shall agree to comply with the restrictions in this Section 4 with respect to such shares of Common Stock (it being acknowledged and agreed that such financial institution or its assignee shall inure to the rights of Hill Path under the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to such shares of Common Stock); or

(vii) a Transfer pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; provided, that such Transfer complies with the manner of sale requirements of Rule 144(f).

(c) In addition to Permitted Transfers, each Hill Path Affiliate shall be free to Transfer any shares of Common Stock; provided, that (i) with respect to any Transfer, other than Permitted Transfer or an underwritten public offering or an underwritten or registered block trade, the Hill Path Affiliates shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock to (A) any Restricted Entity or (B) any Person or Group known to such Hill Path Affiliate (or to the broker in an ordinary course brokerage transaction) to be a 25% Stockholder or that would become the Beneficial Owner of 25% or more of the total outstanding Common Stock as a result of the Transfer, except with the prior written consent of the Company, and (ii) with respect to any Transfer that is an underwritten public offering or an underwritten or registered block trade, such Hill Path Affiliate shall instruct the managing underwriter(s) or broker(s) not to Transfer any shares of Common Stock to any Person or Group that is a 25% Stockholder or that would become the Beneficial Owner of 25% or more of the total outstanding Common Stock as a result of the Transfer (unless, in each case, the identity of the Person purchasing the shares of Common Stock is not known to the managing underwriter(s) or broker(s)). At any point in time, Hill Path may deliver a notice to the Company setting forth information regarding a Person reasonably necessary for the Company to determine if such person is Unsuitable, and requesting that the Company consent to a Transfer to such Person notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in Section 4(c)(i)(A). If the Company does not notify Hill Path within five (5) Business Days after delivery of such notice that the Person is Unsuitable and that it is not willing to consent to such Transfer, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have consented to such Transfer in accordance with Section 4(c)(i). If the applicable Transfer is not completed within ninety (90) days of the Company’s consent or deemed consent, then such consent or deemed consent under this paragraph shall be deemed to be rescinded. For purposes of this Section 4(c), the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time (x) shall be based on the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as most recently disclosed by the Company on the cover of a publicly filed Form 10-K or Form 10-Q, or (y) shall be otherwise communicated in writing by the Company to Hill Path, either in response to a request from Hill Path or as separately initiated by the Company.

(d) Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of Equity Securities of the Company in violation of this Section 4 shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall not, and shall instruct its transfer agent and other third parties not to, record or recognize any such purported transaction on the books of the Company.

(e) Following any Transfer by a Hill Path Affiliate contemplated by Section 4(b)(vi), Hill Path shall (i) promptly notify the Company in writing upon receipt of any notice of acceleration or foreclosure from a financial institution under the applicable loan or debt transaction, and (ii) reimburse any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with (x) the establishment of such mortgage, encumbrance or pledge or (y) any Transfer of shares of Common Stock to such financial institution in connection with such event of acceleration or foreclosure.

(f) The Company shall use reasonable efforts to have the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement registered directly on the books and records of the transfer agent in the name of the applicable Hill Path Affiliate and maintained in book entries directly on the books and records of the transfer agent in the name of the applicable Hill Path Affiliate. The certificates for such shares of Common Stock held by a Hill Path Affiliate as of the Closing Date shall bear a legend or legends (and appropriate comparable notations or other arrangements will be made with respect to shares maintained in the form of book entries) referencing restrictions on transfer of such shares under the Securities Act, which legend shall state in substance:

THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE EXCHANGE THEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING TO SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the request of the applicable Hill Path Affiliate, (i) following receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such legend (or notation) may be lifted in connection with the Transfer of Common Stock, the Company shall promptly cause the legend (or notation) to be removed from any Common Stock to be Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) to the extent the legend (or notation) would be removed pursuant to this paragraph in connection with any Transfer of Common Stock, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause such Common Stock to be registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company’s nominee.

5. Right of First Refusal.

(a) If the Company, at any time or from time to time following the Closing, proposes to issue (a “New Issuance”) any New Securities, for cash in an offering that is not an underwritten public offering or an offering pursuant to Rule 144A (or a successor rule) under the Securities Act (any such offering, a “Private Placement”), the Company shall provide Hill Path with written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of such New Issuance at least fifteen (15) days prior to the issuance of such New Securities. The Issuance Notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the New Issuance, including (i) the proposed number of New Securities if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof, (ii) a description of the New Securities and proposed manner of sale, (iii) the purchase price per New Security (or conversion price or premium in the event of an offering of convertible debt) (the “Per Security Offering Price”) if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof, and (iv) the proposed issuance date if known or, if not known, an estimate thereof. Hill Path shall be entitled to purchase (either directly or through any other Hill Path Affiliate), at the Per Security Offering Price and on the other terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice, up to the number of such New Securities that would result in the aggregate Total Share Ownership of the Hill Path Affiliates, as a percentage of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following such New Issuance being equal to the aggregate Total Share Ownership of the Hill Path Affiliates, as a percentage of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such New Issuance; provided, that for this purpose such percentage shall not exceed the Maximum Ownership Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of New Securities that Hill Path (directly or through any other Hill Path Affiliate) shall be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 5 with respect to any New Issuance shall be limited to the maximum amount that may be issued by the Company to Hill Path (directly or through any other Hill Path Affiliate) without requiring approval of such issuance by the stockholders of the Company under the rules of the Exchange, as determined in good faith by the Company (which such determination shall be binding on the parties).

(b) Hill Path may exercise its rights under this Section 5 by delivering written notice of its election to purchase (either directly or through any other Hill Path Affiliate) such New Securities to the Company within ten (10) days after receipt of the Issuance Notice, which notice shall specify the number of New Securities requested to be purchased by Hill Path. Delivery of such notice shall constitute a binding commitment of Hill Path to purchase (either directly or through any other Hill Path Affiliate) the amount of New Securities so specified at the Per Security Offering Price and on the terms and conditions specified in the Issuance Notice. If, at the termination of such ten (10) day period, Hill Path has not exercised its right to purchase any such New Securities, Hill Path shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 5 with respect to, and only with respect to, the purchase of the New Securities specified in the applicable Issuance Notice.

(c) The closing of any sale of New Securities to Hill Path or any other Hill Path Affiliate pursuant to this Section 5 shall take place concurrently with the consummation of the sale of the New Securities on the terms set forth in the Issuance Notice to all other Persons purchasing such New Securities (the “New Issuance Closing”).

(d) If the Company issues, at the New Issuance Closing, less than all of the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice, then the number of New Securities that Hill Path (and any other Hill Path Affiliate) shall be entitled to purchase in connection with such New Issuance pursuant to this Section 5 shall be reduced proportionately and Hill Path’s notice delivered pursuant to this Section 5 shall be deemed amended to reflect such reduction. If the number of New Securities is reduced as contemplated by this Section 5, the Company shall not issue or sell the remainder of the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice without again complying with the provisions of this Section 5.

(e) If the New Issuance Closing (other than any over-allotment closing) does not occur within ninety (90) days after the date of the Issuance Notice, the Company shall not issue or sell the New Securities described in the Issuance Notice without again complying with the provisions of this Section 5.

(f) Hill Path (or any other Hill Path Affiliate) shall, prior to the closing of any Private Placement in which any of them has elected to purchase New Securities pursuant to this Section 5, execute and deliver all such documents and instruments as are customarily required in connection with such an offering or are reasonably requested by the Company, including, without limitation, customary investment representations and representations as to its status as the type of offeree to whom a private sale may be made pursuant to the Securities Act, and any failure to deliver or enter into any such documents and instruments at or prior to such closing shall constitute a waiver of the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 5 with respect to such New Issuance.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, this Section 5 shall not apply and the Hill Path Affiliates shall have no rights under this Section 5 if, at any time, any Hill Path Affiliate is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have breached any of the Material Terms, and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt by Hill Path of written notice from the Company specifying such breach.

8. Equal Treatment.

If the form of consideration per share of Common Stock received by Hill Path Affiliates in connection with any Acquisition Transaction is not identical to the form of consideration per share of Common Stock received by the other holders of Common Stock of the Company, the Hill Path Designees shall recuse themselves from the consideration, evaluation and other processes of the Board or any duly authorized committee thereof with respect to such Acquisition Transaction.
