splits, stock dividends or other recapitalizations (the "Contributed Assets")
to FLLP.
B. Contributor and General Partner, among others, are parties to that
certain Stockholders' and Registration Rights Agreement dated July 28, 1998
(the "Stockholders Agreement").
C. FLLP desires to acquire the Contributed Assets from Contributor, on

D. General Partner, in order to induce Contributor to enter into this
Agreement, has agreed to make certain representations, warranties and covenants

Agreement.
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
The Contribution
1.1 Contribution of Contributed Assets. Contributor agrees to
contribute and transfer the Contributed Assets to FLLP and FLLP agrees to
accept transfer of the Contributed Assets pursuant to the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement. The Contributed Assets shall be transferred to
FLLP at Closing (defined below), free and clear of all liens, encumbrances,
security interests, prior assignments or conveyances, conditions, restrictions,
claims and other matters affecting title.
1.2 Consideration. The total consideration (the "Consideration") for
which Contributor agrees to contribute and assign the Contributed Assets to
FLLP, and which FLLP agrees to pay or deliver to Contributor, subject to the
terms of this Agreement, shall be the issuance to Contributor of the units
("Units") of limited partner interest in FLLP equal in number to the total
number of
-1-
shares of Common Stock comprising the Contributed Assets. Contributor hereby
subscribes for and agrees to accept the issuance of the Units and the terms and
conditions of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership for
FLLP dated as of July 25, 1994, as amended to date (the "Partnership
Agreement"), including without limitation the power of attorney granted in
Section 1.4 of the Partnership Agreement, and to execute and deliver at the
Closing such other documents or instruments as may be required by General
Partner under Section 11.4 of the Partnership Agreement to effect Contributor's
admission as a limited partner in FLLP.
1.3 Redemption Rights for Units. Each Unit shall be redeemable, at the
option of Contributor, in accordance with, but subject to the restrictions
contained in, Section 7.5 of the Partnership Agreement; provided, however, that
Contributor's redemption option may not be exercised prior to (a) the date that
is 30 days after the termination of any agreement to merge, consolidate or
otherwise acquire control of Bristol Hotels & Resorts, entered into by Bass PLC
or any of its affiliates (the "BHR Merger") or (b) if any such agreement is not
reached, March 28, 2000. Furthermore, notwithstanding the provisions set forth
in Section 7.5 of the Partnership Agreement, if Contributor elects to redeem
its Units, the General Partner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, pay
the Redemption Amount (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) either (i)
through payment of the REIT Shares Amount (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement), or (ii) by causing FLLP to distribute to Contributor the
Contributed Assets, subject, in either case, to all of the other conditions set
forth in Section 7.5.
1.4 Registration Rights. Contributor shall have rights to obtain
registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") of the
shares of Common Stock that may be issuable in redemption for Contributor's
Units pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement. General Partner
acknowledges that, for purposes of the Stockholders Agreement, the shares of
Common Stock that may be issuable in redemption for Contributor's Units shall
be deemed Registrable Shares, as that term is defined in the Stockholders
Agreement, and General Partner shall cause a Registration Statement (as defined
in the Stockholders Agreement) with respect to such shares to become effective
pursuant to Section 2.1 thereof no later than September 1, 2000.
1.5 SEC Filings. FLLP agrees to provide to Contributor a copy of all
periodic reports filed after the date of this Agreement by General Partner with
the SEC under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
This obligation will cease upon the termination of this Agreement prior to
Closing or upon the redemption by Contributor of all of its Units after
Closing.
1.6 Section 721 Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, including without limitation the use of words and phrases
such as "Seller," "Purchaser," "Purchase Price," "sell," "sale," purchase" and
"pay," the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that
the transaction contemplated hereby be treated for federal income tax purposes
as the contribution of the Contributed Assets by Contributor to FLLP in
exchange for the Units pursuant to Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code"), and not as a transaction in which Contributor is
acting other than in its capacity as a prospective partner of FLLP.

Contributor pursuant to this Agreement, have been approved by the Board of
Directors of General Partner and require no further action or approval of its
directors or shareholders or of any other individuals or entities in order to
constitute this Agreement as a binding and enforceable obligation of General
Partner.

standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has full right, power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to assume and perform all of its

Agreement and the performance by FLLP of its obligations under this Agreement

obligation of FLLP.
(c) Neither the entry into nor the performance of, or
compliance with, this Agreement by either General Partner or FLLP has resulted,

(e) The Units, when issued, will have been duly and validly
authorized and issued, free of any preemptive or similar rights, and will be
fully paid and nonassessable, without any obligation to restore capital except

as all existing limited partners on a pari passu basis. As of the date hereof

similar rights.

governmental agency or body necessary for the (i) valid authorization,
issuance, sale and delivery of the Units, and (ii) the valid authorization,

Units.
(g) Neither the issuance, sale and delivery by FLLP of the
Units, nor the issuance, sale and delivery by General Partner of the shares of
Common Stock upon redemption of the Units, will conflict with or result in a
breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or (with or without
the giving of notice or passage of time or both) constitute a default under the
certificate of incorporation or bylaws of General Partner or the certificate of
limited partnership or the Partnership Agreement of FLLP; any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or
instrument to which General Partner or FLLP is a party or to which any of them,
any of their respective properties or other assets or any hotel is subject; or
any applicable statute, judgment, decree, rule or regulation of any court or

that, pursuant to its Articles of Amendment and Restatement, as further amended
and supplemented (the "Charter"), no person or entity may beneficially own more
than 9.9% of the outstanding Common Stock (the "Ownership Limit") unless the
Board of Directors of General Partner waives compliance with such Ownership
Limit. General Partner further acknowledges that in connection with the
Stockholders Agreement, Contributor (together with its affiliates) received a
waiver of the Ownership Limit in connection with its ownership of shares of
Common Stock, including the Contributed Assets. General Partner hereby confirms
that in the event that Contributor exercises its right of redemption and
receives shares of Common Stock, the waiver previously granted to Contributor
and its affiliates shall continue to be applicable to the acquisition by
Contributor of such shares of Common Stock upon redemption of its Units;
provided, however, that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock held by
Contributor and its affiliates following such redemption shall not exceed the
Initial Ownership of the Bass Parties as set forth in, and as those terms are
defined in, the Stockholders Agreement.
2.2 Representations by Contributor. Contributor hereby represents and
warrants unto FLLP that each and every one of the following statements is true,
correct and complete in every
-4-
material respect as of the date of this Agreement and will be true, correct and
complete as of the Closing Date:
(a) Contributor is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has full right,
power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to assume and perform all
of its obligations under this Agreement; and the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the performance by Contributor of its obligations under this
Agreement require no further action or approval of Contributor's shareholders,
directors, members, managers, trustees or partners (as the case may be) or of
any other individuals or entities in order to constitute this Agreement as a
binding and enforceable obligation of Contributor.
(b) Neither the entry into nor the performance of, or
compliance with, this Agreement by Contributor has resulted, or will result, in
any violation of, or default under, or result in the acceleration of, any
obligation under any existing corporate charter, certificate of incorporation,
bylaw, articles of organization, limited liability company agreement,
regulations, certificate of limited partnership, trust agreement, partnership
agreement, mortgage indenture, lien agreement, note, contract, permit,
judgment, decree, order, restrictive covenant, statute, rule or regulation
applicable to Contributor or to the Contributed Assets.
(c) (i) Contributor is the sole owner of the Contributed
Assets, (ii) Contributor has good title to the Contributed Assets, (iii) the

security interests whatsoever, and (iv) Contributor has not granted any other
person or entity an option to purchase or a right of first refusal upon the

(d) No authorization, consent, approval, permit or license
of, or filing with, any governmental or public body or authority, or any other
person or entity is required to authorize, or is required in connection with,
the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the agreements
contemplated hereby on the part of Contributor, other than for purposes of the
Stockholders Agreement, the approval of the Board of Directors of General
Partner of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) Contributor is familiar with the business and financial
condition of General Partner and FLLP, and is not relying upon any
representations made to it by General Partner, FLLP or any of the officers,
employees or agents of either of them that are not contained or referred to
herein.
(f) Contributor is aware of the risks involved in making an
investment in the Units and in the Common Stock for which such Units may be
redeemable. Contributor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and to
receive answers from, FLLP and General Partner, or a person or persons
authorized to act on their behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of this
investment and the financial condition, affairs and business of FLLP and
General Partner. Contributor confirms that all documents, records and
information pertaining to its investment in FLLP that have been requested by
it, including a complete copy of the Partnership Agreement as summarized in
Schedule 2.1(h) attached hereto, have been made available or delivered to it
prior to the date hereof.
-5-
(g) Contributor understands that neither the Units nor the
shares of Common Stock for which the Units may be redeemed have been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities acts and
are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such
registration requirements. The Units for which Contributor hereby subscribes
are being acquired solely for its own account, for investment, and are not
being acquired with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof, in violation of such
laws, and (except as expressly set forth herein) Contributor has no present
intention to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement
with respect to any such resale. Contributor understands that the Units will
contain appropriate legends reflecting the requirement that the Units not be
resold by Contributor without registration under such laws or the availability
of an exemption from such registration.
(h) Contributor is an accredited investor as that term is
defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the SEC.
2.3 Restrictions on Subsequent Disposition of the Contributed Assets.
FLLP covenants and agrees that, until the earlier of seven (7) years from the
date hereof or the date that Contributor no longer owns at least 25% of the
Units issued to it pursuant to this Agreement, FLLP shall not sell, assign,
transfer, distribute or otherwise dispose (including taking any action that
would result in the recognition of a loss, for U.S. federal income tax
purposes, by FLLP or Contributor) of the Contributed Assets, without
Contributor's prior written consent.
