2. Reimbursement of Certain Expenses. Section 10.2 of the Original Management Agreement is hereby restated in its entirety to read as follows:

2
(b) in order to facilitate the orderly transition as a going concern of the hotel business conducted at the Properties by Borrower, Lessee and the other Loan Parties and the ability of Lender to transfer that business to a third party subsequent to the commencement of the Transition Period, shall provide reasonable cooperation and transition assistance to Lender, any successor owner of any one or more Individual Properties and/or any third party replacement manager or management company identified by Lender, which assistance shall consist of the following: (A) complying with all obligations set forth in Section 12.3 and Section 12.4 of this Agreement for the entire term of the Transition Period, notwithstanding the ninety (90) day period set forth therein, (B) operating the Properties as part of a national advertising program otherwise applicable to its hotels, (C) including the Properties in the central reservation system for all hotels operated under the ESA Brand and any third party software owned and/or licensed by Manager and used by Manager or any Person in managing and operating the Collateral, in each case, as provided in this Agreement and substantially in accordance with Manager’s then current practice, (D) subject to any limitations or restrictions imposed by applicable law, providing reasonable access to, and upon reasonable request transferring to Lender, any successor owner of any one or more Individual Properties and/or any third party replacement manager or management company identified by Lender (each, a “Transition Party” and collectively, the “Transition Parties”) all guest data (to the extent maintained or compiled by Manager on behalf of Borrower or any other Loan Party) and Individual Property-level employee data relating to the operation of the Properties, (E) maintaining and cooperating with Lender to effectuate the transfer (to the extent transferable), at Lender’s request and at Lender’s sole cost and expense, of all licenses, permits, authorizations held by Manager and necessary for the operation of each Individual Property, (F) delivering to the Transition Parties any Hotel Information, financial information and other books and records relating to the operation of the Individual Properties which are in the control of Manager and which are required to be delivered by Manager under this Agreement or are otherwise reasonably requested, (G) providing onsite access at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to the office of Manager for inspection of books and records and observation of operations (which shall not be
3
construed to include any training activities) as provided in this Agreement, (H) providing reasonable access to senior management of Manager to discuss the provision of the services contemplated hereby at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, (I) subject to any limitations or restrictions imposed by applicable law, providing the Transition Parties with employment records with respect to (1) Individual Property-level employees that Lender is seeking to transfer and (2) back-office employees that provide services exclusively to one or more Individual Properties; provided, that such employees do not provide services to other assets managed by Manager (collectively, “Target Employees”), (J) providing reasonable access to Target Employees upon reasonable notice to permit the Transition Parties to offer employment to such employees in connection with such transfer, (K) providing Centralized Services to the Transition Parties for the operation of the Collateral, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and (L) taking all reasonable steps necessary, subject to availability of sufficient Property revenue, to keep in full force and effect during the Transition Period all insurance policies and coverages required under this Agreement (such services, collectively, the “Transition Services”); and
