WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to certain amendments to the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Credit Parties, the Lenders party hereto and the Administrative Agent have so agreed on the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and

sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Credit Parties, the Lenders party hereto and the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

1. Amendments to the Credit Agreement. Effective as of March 18, 2021 (the “Third Amendment Effective Date”) but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 below, the parties hereto agree that the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as set forth in the marked terms on Annex I attached hereto (the “Amended Credit Agreement”). In Annex I hereto, deletions of text in the Amended Credit Agreement are indicated by struck-through text, and insertions of text are indicated by double-underlined text. As of the Third Amendment Effective Date, the parties hereto agree that Schedules 2.1(a), 5.2(a) and 6.7(a) to the Credit Agreement are hereby amended as set forth in Annex II attached hereto. As so amended, the Credit Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Amended Credit Agreement.

2. Extending Lenders. Each Lender set forth on Annex III hereto (each, an “Extending Lender”) hereby agrees that the Maturity Date with respect to itself and its Revolving Commitment, LOC Commitment and Swingline Commitment shall be subject to automatic extension upon the exercise by Hyatt of the extension option set forth in Section 2.24 of the Amended Credit Agreement in accordance with (and subject only to) the terms of such section. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, if there are one or more Lenders who are not Extending Lenders (the “Non-Extending Lenders”), then, on the Extension Date (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement), (i) the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Commitment, LOC Commitment and Swingline Commitment of each Extending Lender shall be automatically extended to January 10, 2024 without consent or further action by any Lender or any other Person, (ii) the Revolving Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall terminate, (iii) the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount shall be reduced by the Revolving Committed Amount of each Non-Extending Lender, (iv) the Swingline Committed Amount and the aggregate Dollar Amount of LOC Obligations permitted under the Credit Agreement shall be reduced on a proportionate basis with the reduction of such Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount and (v) all Obligations (including all accrued interest and Facility Fees) owing to the Non-Extending Lenders shall be due and payable in full. The amended Schedule 2.1(a) attached hereto in Annex II sets forth the “Revolving Committed Amount”, “Commitment Percentage”, “LOC Committed Amount” and “LC Commitment Percentage” of each Lender both before and after giving effect to the proposed extension. For the avoidance of doubt, after giving effect to the proposed extension if such extension option is exercised by Hyatt, the aggregate total Swingline Committed Amount shall be $48,333,333.33 and the aggregate total Dollar Amount of LOC Obligations shall be $193,333,333.33.

3. Conditions of Effectiveness. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions precedent:

(a) Execution of Amendment. Receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of this Amendment duly executed by the Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Absence of Legal Proceedings. The absence of any pending or, to the best knowledge of Hyatt, threatened action, suit, investigation, proceeding, bankruptcy or insolvency, injunction, order or claim with respect to Hyatt or any of its Subsidiaries which would, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Know Your Customer Information. The Borrowers and each other Credit Party shall have provided all information requested by the Administrative Agent and each Lender (to the extent requested in writing (which may be by e-mail) at least 3 Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date) in order to comply with applicable “know your customer” and Anti-Money Laundering Laws including without limitation, the Patriot Act.

(d) Officer’s Certificate. Receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, of a Responsible Officer certifying that as of the Third Amendment Effective Date (i) Hyatt and each of the other Credit Parties on a consolidated basis are solvent and (ii) after giving effect to the consummation of the Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(e) Fees. Receipt by the Administrative Agent of all fees and expenses, if any, then owing by the Borrowers to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, including without limitation, the fees set forth in that certain Fee Letter dated as of March 2, 2021, among the Arrangers (as defined therein) and the Borrowers.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 3, each Lender that has signed this Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required under this Section 3 to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender prior to the date of this Amendment specifying its objections.

4. Representations and Warranties of the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties hereby represent and warrant as follows:

(a) This Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties party hereto, and this Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties party hereto, enforceable against the Borrowers and any such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Credit Parties.

(b) As of the date hereof and after giving effect to the terms of this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

5. Reaffirmation. (i) Each Guarantor hereby reaffirms its continuing obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Hedging Agreement Providers under the Guaranty and agrees that the transactions contemplated by this Amendment, including the effectiveness of the Amended Credit Agreement, shall not in any way affect the validity and enforceability of the Guaranty, or reduce, impair or discharge the obligations of such Guarantor thereunder; and (ii) each Borrower and each Guarantor hereby reaffirms its acceptance of the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Illinois in Xxxx County or any federal court located in the State of Illinois, as provided in Section 10.14 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Each Credit Document and all other documents, instruments and agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

(c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Credit Documents or any other documents, instruments and agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith or herewith.

(d) This Amendment is a “Credit Document” under (and as defined in) the Amended Credit Agreement.

(e) Except as expressly herein amended, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents remain in full force and effect. The amendments contained herein shall be deemed to have prospective application only from the date as of which this Amendment is dated.

8. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS (WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the following circumstances, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have given demand for repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Revolving Loan borrowing and, in such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the Dollar Amount of such Swingline Loans one Business Day prior to each of (1) the Maturity Date, (2) the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 7.1(e), (3) upon acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder, whether on account of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(e) or any other Event of Default and (4) the exercise of remedies in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof (each such Revolving Loan borrowing made on account of any such deemed request therefor as provided herein being hereinafter referred to as a “Mandatory Borrowing”). Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans promptly upon any such deemed request on account of each Mandatory Borrowing in the Dollar Amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date notwithstanding (A) the amount of Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (B) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, (C) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (D) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(b)(i), (E) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, or (F) any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount or termination of the Revolving Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such

- 44 -

Swingline Loans ratably based upon its respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2), provided that (A) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is purchased, and (B) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of such participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of the Mandatory Borrowing, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.

- 45 -

or by operation of the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit to a date not more than twelve (12) months from the date of extension; provided, further, that a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration date of not more than one year beyond the Maturity Date (any such Letter of Credit being referred to as an “Extended Letter of Credit”) so long as the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Lender no later than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date, Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into a cash collateral account in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the amount available to be drawn by a beneficiary under such Letter of Credit at such time of determination; provided, that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section in respect of such Extended Letters of Credit shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in effect until no such Extended Letters of Credit remain outstanding. If the Borrower fails to provide Cash Collateral with respect to any Extended Letter of Credit by the date 30 days prior to the Maturity Date, such failure shall be treated as a drawing under such Extended Letter of Credit (in an amount equal to the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit), which shall be reimbursed (or participations therein funded) by the Lenders in accordance with the immediately following subsections (c) and (d), as applicable, with the proceeds being utilized to provide Cash Collateral for such Letter of Credit. If requested by an Issuing Lender, the Borrowers shall submit a letter of credit application in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.

Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC Documents. The issuance and expiry date of each Letter of Credit shall be a Business Day.

Xxxxx Fargo and any Discretionary Issuing Lender may be an Issuing Lender for any Foreign Letters of Credit issued on or after the Closing Date. The parties hereto agree that the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Notice and Reports. The request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be submitted to the applicable Issuing Lender at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to such Issuing Lender in its sole discretion) and shall set forth for such requested Letter of Credit whether such Letter of Credit will be denominated in Dollars or the applicable Foreign Currency, the initial stated amount, the beneficiary, the expiration date and whether the account party will be Hyatt or the Foreign Borrower. Each Issuing Lender will promptly upon request provide to the Administrative Agent for dissemination to the Lenders a detailed report specifying the Letters of Credit which are then issued by such Issuing Lender and outstanding and any activity with respect thereto which may have occurred since the date of any prior report, and including therein, among other things, the account party, the beneficiary, the face amount, expiry date as well as any payments or expirations which may have occurred. Each Issuing Lender will further provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request copies of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender. Each Issuing Lender will provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request a summary report of the nature and extent of LOC Obligations then outstanding with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.

(c) Participations. Each Lender upon issuance of a Letter of Credit (or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, upon the Closing Date) shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the applicable Issuing Lender in such Letter of Credit and the obligations arising

- 46 -

thereunder and any collateral relating thereto, in each case in an amount equal to its LOC Commitment Percentage of the obligations under such Letter of Credit and shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to such Issuing Lender therefor and discharge when due, its LOC Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that the applicable Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit has not been reimbursed as required hereunder or under any LOC Document, each such Lender shall pay to such Issuing Lender its LOC Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing in same day funds on the day of notification by such Issuing Lender of an unreimbursed drawing pursuant to the provisions of subsections (a) or (d) hereof, as applicable. The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse an Issuing Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.

(d) Reimbursement. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender on the day of drawing under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender in (x) the applicable Foreign Currency of the relevant Letter of Credit with respect to which the drawing was made to the extent directly reimbursed by the Borrower or (y) in Dollars to the extent funded with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan obtained hereunder or otherwise and, in each case, in same day funds as provided herein or in the LOC Documents. If the Borrower shall fail to reimburse an Issuing Lender as provided herein, the unreimbursed amount of such drawing shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage plus two percent (2%). Unless the Borrower shall immediately notify the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent of its intent to otherwise reimburse such Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the drawing as provided in subsection (e) hereof, the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the reimbursement obligations. The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances irrespective of any rights of set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment the Borrower may claim or have against any Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit drawn upon or any other Person, including without limitation any defense based on any failure of the Borrower to receive consideration or the legality, validity, regularity or unenforceability of the Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Lenders of the amount of any unreimbursed drawing in respect of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and each Lender shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s LOC Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing. Such payment shall be made on the day such notice is received by such Lender from such Issuing Lender if such notice is received at or before 2:00 P.M., otherwise such payment shall be made at or before 12:00 noon on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received. If such Lender does not pay such amount to such Issuing Lender in full upon such request, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date of such drawing until such Lender pays such amount to such Issuing Lender in full at a rate per annum equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of drawing, the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate. Each Lender’s obligation to make such payment to an Issuing Lender, and the right of an Issuing Lender to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to the termination of this Credit Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder and shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

- 47 -

(e) Repayment with Loans. On any day on which the Borrower shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan to reimburse a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Lenders that a Revolving Loan has been requested or deemed requested in connection with a drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case a Revolving Loan borrowing comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans (each such borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be immediately made (without giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2) pro rata based on each Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2) and the proceeds thereof shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Lender for application to the respective LOC Obligations. Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans immediately upon any such request or deemed request on account of each Mandatory Borrowing in the Dollar Amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date notwithstanding (i) the amount of Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) failure for any such request or deemed request for a Revolving Loan to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(b)(i), (v) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, or (vi) any reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount after any such Letter of Credit may have been drawn upon. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code), then each such Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith fund (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) its Participation Interests in the LOC Obligations; provided, further, that in the event any Lender shall fail to fund its Participation Interest on the day the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, then the amount of such Lender’s unfunded Participation Interest therein shall bear interest payable by such Lender to the applicable Issuing Lender upon demand, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of such date, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.

(f) Modification, Extension. The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal, or extension to any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.

(g) Letter of Credit Governing Law. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by an Issuing Lender and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(h) Reimbursement Payments. All payments made to an Issuing Lender to reimburse such Issuing Lender for any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender from (x) the Borrower, shall be made in the applicable Foreign Currency of the relevant Letter of Credit with respect to which the drawing was made or (y) the Lenders, shall be made in Dollars (based upon the Dollar Amount of the applicable payment); provided that in each case the Borrower shall be liable for any currency exchange loss related to such payments and, absent demonstrable error, shall promptly pay the applicable Issuing Lender, upon receipt of notice thereof, the amount of any such loss.

(i) Conflict with LOC Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and any LOC Documents, the terms hereof shall control.

(j) Domestic and Discretionary Issuing Lenders. In addition to those Lenders specified in Section 2.4(a) hereof, any Lender with a Revolving Commitment (in such capacity, a “Domestic Issuing Lender”) may from time to time, at the written request of the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, and in such Lender’s sole discretion, agree to issue one or more Domestic Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower on the same terms and conditions in all respects as are applicable to the Letters of Credit issued by the other Issuing Lenders hereunder by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a written agreement to such effect, among (and in form and substance satisfactory to) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Domestic Issuing Lender. Any Lender with a Revolving Commitment (in such capacity, a “Discretionary Issuing Lender”) may from time to time, at the written request of the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and in such Lender’s sole discretion, agree to issue one or more Foreign Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower on the same terms and conditions in all respects as are applicable to the Letters of Credit issued by the other Issuing Lenders hereunder by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a written agreement to such effect, among (and in form and substance satisfactory to) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Discretionary Issuing Lender. With respect to each of the Letters of Credit issued (or to be issued) thereby, each of the Issuing Lenders shall have all of the same rights and obligations under and in respect of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall be entitled to all of the same benefits (including, without limitation, the rights, obligations and benefits set forth in Sections 2.4, 2.19 and 10.5), as are afforded to all of the Issuing Lenders hereunder and thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders with a Revolving Commitment of the appointment of any Issuing Lender after the Closing Date. Each Issuing Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, on a monthly basis, a report that details the activity with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (including an indication of the maximum amount then in effect with respect to each such Letter of Credit).

(k) Extended Letters of Credit. Each Lender confirms that its obligations under the immediately preceding subsections (c) through (e) shall be reinstated in full and apply if the delivery of any Cash Collateral in respect of an Extended Letter of Credit is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise.

2.5 Additional Loans.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result after giving effect to such Additional Loans, the Borrower shall have the right during the period from the Bridge Facility Termination Date until the date one Business Day prior to the Maturity Date, to incur additional Indebtedness (the “Additional Loans”) under this Credit Agreement in the form of one or more increases to the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount by an aggregate amount of up to $500,000,000. The following terms and conditions shall apply to all Additional Loans: (a) the loans made under any such Additional Loan shall constitute Credit Party Obligations, (b) such Additional Loan shall have the same terms (including interest rate) as the existing Loans, (c) any such Additional Loan shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Loans and shall be entitled to receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as comparable Loans, (d) any such Additional Loan shall be obtained from existing Lenders or from other banks, financial institutions or investment funds, in each case in accordance with the terms set forth below, (e) such Additional Loan shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $50,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, (f) the proceeds of any Additional Loan will be used in accordance with Section 3.13, (g) the Borrower shall execute such promissory notes as are necessary and requested by the Lenders to reflect the Additional Loans and (h) the representations and warranties made

by the Borrower herein or in any other Credit Document or which are contained in any certificate furnished at any time under or in connection herewith or therewith shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Extension of Credit as if made on and as of such date (except for those which expressly relate to an earlier date in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date). The Borrower may invite existing Lenders or other banks, financial institutions and investment funds that are not Lenders and that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and that would satisfy the same criteria that would be required for such bank, financial institution or investment fund to be an “Eligible Assignee” to join this Credit Agreement as Lenders to provide any Additional Loans, provided (i) no existing Lender shall have any obligation to provide all or any portion of any such Additional Loan and (ii) such other banks, financial institutions and investment funds that are not existing Lenders shall enter into such joinder agreements to give effect thereto as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may reasonably request and shall thereafter be deemed to be Lenders. The existing Lenders shall make such assignments (which assignments shall not be subject to the requirements set forth in Sections 10.6(c) or 10.6(e)) of the outstanding Loans (excluding Competitive Loans) and Participation Interests to the Lenders providing any Additional Loan so that, after giving effect to such assignments, each Lender (including the Lenders providing the Additional Loans) will hold Loans and Participation Interests equal to its Commitment Percentage of all outstanding Loans and LOC Obligations (and accordingly the Borrower shall pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.17). The Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into, on behalf of the Lenders, any amendment to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document consistent with this Section 2.5 as may be necessary to incorporate the terms of any Additional Loan.

2.6

Default Rate.

Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, the overdue principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans, LOC Obligations and any other amounts owing hereunder, under the other Credit Documents or under the Fee Letter shall, upon the election of the Required Lenders (except with respect to an Event of Default occurring under Section 7.1(e), in which case such interest rate increase shall be immediate) bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate 2% greater than the interest rate which would otherwise be applicable (or if no rate is applicable, whether in respect of interest, fees or other amounts, then 2% greater than the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage).

2.7

Extension and Conversion.

The Borrower shall have the option, on any Business Day, to extend existing Loans into a subsequent permissible Interest Period or to convert Loans into Loans of another Type; provided, however, that (a) except as expressly provided otherwise in this Credit Agreement, Eurocurrency Rate Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (b) Eurocurrency Rate Loans may be extended, and Base Rate Loans may be converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans, only so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists or would otherwise result therefrom, and (c) Loans extended as, or converted into, Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be subject to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 and shall be in such minimum amounts as provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii). Any request for extension or conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan which shall fail to specify an Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month. Each such extension or conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving a Notice of Extension/Conversion (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M. on the Business Day of, in the case of the conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, and on the third Business Day prior to, in the case of the extension of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan as, or conversion of a Base Rate Loan into, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the date of the proposed extension or conversion, specifying (i) the date of the proposed extension or conversion, (ii) the Loans to be so extended or

- 50 -

converted, (iii) the Types of Loans into which such Loans are to be converted and, if appropriate and (iv) the applicable Interest Periods with respect thereto. Each request for extension or conversion shall be irrevocable and shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower of the matters specified in Section 4.2 (b) and (c). In the event the Borrower fails to request extension or conversion of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan in accordance with this Section, or any such conversion or extension is not permitted or required by this Section, then such Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed extension or conversion affecting any Loan.

Unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, all Foreign Currency Loans then outstanding shall be redenominated into Dollars (based on the Dollar Amount of such Foreign Currency Loans on the date of redenomination) on the last day of the then current Interest Periods of such Foreign Currency Loans; provided that in each case the Borrower shall be liable for any currency exchange loss related to such payments and shall promptly pay the Lenders upon receipt of notice thereof the amount of any such loss.

2.8 Prepayments.

(a) Voluntary Repayments. Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and, with the consent of the applicable Competitive Loan Lender or Lenders, Competitive Loans, may be repaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) Eurocurrency Rate Loans may be repaid only upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and Base Rate Loans may be repaid only upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, (ii) repayments of Eurocurrency Rate Loans must be accompanied by payment of any amounts owing under Section 2.17, and (iii) partial repayments of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in minimum principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $5,000,000, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and partial repayments of Base Rate Loans shall be in minimum principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $1,000,000, and in integral multiples of $250,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) Overadvance. If at any time, the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of outstanding Revolving Loans plus Swingline Loans plus LOC Obligations plus Competitive Loans shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, the Borrower shall immediately (or, if such excess is solely due to a currency fluctuation, within two Business Days) make payment on the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate the deficiency.

(ii) Asset Sales. If, at any time, on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date and prior to the date which is the earlier of the Security Release Date and the Limitation Date, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of Hyatt receives Net Cash Proceeds exceeding $50,000,000 in the aggregate from one or more Asset Sales, Hyatt shall prepay the Loans (without a permanent reduction in the Commitments) in an amount equal to such excess Net Cash Proceeds, within three (3) Business Days of such Borrower’s, or such Guarantor’s or such Subsidiary’s receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Net Cash Proceeds payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(b)(ii) shall be reduced by the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are applied to reduce the principal amount of loans outstanding under the Bridge Facility.

- 51 -

(iii) Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. If, at any time, on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date and prior to the date which is the earlier of the Security Release Date and the Limitation Date, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of Hyatt receives Net Cash Proceeds from any Recovery Event (other than Net Cash Proceeds not exceeding $100,000,000 in the aggregate per fiscal year that are designated in writing to be applied to replace such lost Property in other long-term assets useful in the business of Hyatt and its Subsidiaries (or used to replace damaged or destroyed Property) within 180 days of receipt thereof (or, if the applicable Borrower, Guarantor or other Subsidiary, as applicable, has contractually committed within such 180 day period following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds, then within 360 days following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds)), Hyatt shall prepay the Loans (without a permanent reduction of the Commitments) in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds, within three (3) Business Days of such Borrower’s, such Guarantor’s or such Subsidiary’s receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Net Cash Proceeds payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(b)(iii) shall be reduced by the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are applied to reduce the principal amount of loans outstanding under the Bridge Facility.

(iv) Issuance of Debt; Capital Markets Offering. If, at any time, on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date and prior to the date which is the earlier of the Security Release Date and the Limitation Date, any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of Hyatt receives cash proceeds from any incurrence of any Indebtedness of the type described in clauses (a), (b), (g), (h) or (k) of the definition of “Indebtedness” (other than Permitted Indebtedness) or any Capital Markets Offering, in each case, of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of Hyatt, Hyatt shall prepay the Loans (without a permanent reduction in the Commitments) in an amount equal to the amount of such cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs and expenses associated therewith (to the extent not paid to an Affiliate of Hyatt or its Subsidiaries), including reasonable legal fees and expenses, within three (3) Business Days of such Borrower’s, such Guarantor’s or such Subsidiary’s receipt of such cash proceeds; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the cash proceeds payable pursuant to this Section 2.8(b)(iv) shall be reduced by the amount of such cash proceeds that are applied to reduce the principal amount of loans outstanding under the Bridge Facility.

(c) Application. Unless otherwise specified by the Borrower or otherwise provided in 2.8(b) above, voluntary repayments and mandatory prepayments made hereunder shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans, then to Eurocurrency Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities, second to Competitive Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities and third (after all Loans have been repaid) to a cash collateral account in respect of LOC Obligations. Amounts repaid on the Swingline Loan and the Revolving Loans may be reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(d) Hedging Obligations Unaffected. Any repayment or prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments under any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider, which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such repayment or prepayment, subject to the terms of such Hedging Agreement.

(e) Restrictions on Mandatory Prepayments. With respect to any prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(ii) – (iv), notwithstanding any provisions of this Section 2.8 to the contrary, (i) to the extent that any or all of the cash proceeds giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(ii) – (iv) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law (including laws related to financial assistance, corporate benefit, thin capitalization, capital maintenance, liquidity maintenance and similar legal principles, and in respect of restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the board of directors or other governing body of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiaries) from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such cash proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to prepay the Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.8, but may be

- 52 -

retained by Hyatt or the applicable Subsidiary for so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States and (ii) to the extent that a Responsible Officer of Hyatt has reasonably determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the cash proceeds giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(ii) – (iv) would have an adverse tax consequence, the net proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to prepayment of the Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.8, but may be retained by Hyatt or the applicable Subsidiary without being repatriated.

2.9 Termination and Reduction of Commitments

(a) Voluntary Reductions. The Commitments may be terminated or permanently reduced by the Borrower in whole or in part upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) after giving effect to any voluntary reduction, the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of Loans plus LOC Obligations outstanding shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, as reduced, and (ii) partial reductions shall be in minimum principal Dollar Amounts (determined as of the most recent Revaluation Date) of $5,000,000, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that no such reduction or termination shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans made on the effective date thereof, the sum of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans plus Swingline Loans plus LOC Obligations plus Competitive Loans would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount.

(b) Mandatory Reduction. The Revolving Commitments, the LOC Commitments and the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date.

2.10 Fees.

(a) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders holding Commitments, a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) equal to the Applicable Percentage per annum times the actual daily amount of Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount (or, if the Commitments have terminated, on the outstanding amount of all Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and LOC Obligations), regardless of usage. The Facility Fee shall accrue at all times during the Commitment Period (and thereafter so long as any Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans or LOC Obligations remain outstanding), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 4 is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the prior calendar quarter, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date (and, if applicable, thereafter on demand). The Facility Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in effect.

(b) Letter of Credit Fee. In consideration of the LOC Commitments, the Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Lender a fee in Dollars (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Percentage for Eurocurrency Rate Loans per annum on the average daily maximum Dollar Amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender from the date of issuance to the date of expiration or termination. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders (including such Issuing Lender) the Letter of Credit Fee. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the prior calendar quarter.

- 53 -

(c) Issuing Lender Fees. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees payable pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account without sharing by the other Lenders (i) a fronting fee of one-tenth of one percent (0.10%) per annum on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and (ii) the reasonable and customary charges from time to time of an Issuing Lender with respect to the amendment, transfer, administration, cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of Credit (collectively, the “Issuing Lender Fees”) The Issuing Lender Fees shall be payable to the respective Issuing Lenders quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the prior calendar quarter.

(d) Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the annual administrative agent fee as described in the Fee Letter.

(e) Maturity Date Extension Fee. If Hyatt exercises its right to extend the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.24, Hyatt agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Extending Lender, a fee equal to 0.25% of the amount of such Extending Lender’s Revolving Committed Amount as of the Extension Date, which fee shall be payable on and subject to the occurrence of the Extension Date.

2.11 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest payable hereunder with respect to Base Rate Loans based on the Prime Rate and with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling or Canadian Dollars shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual days elapsed. All other fees, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate on the Business Day of the determination thereof. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Base Rate shall become effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Credit Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the computations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate.

(c) The parties understand that the Applicable Percentage may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Lenders by Hyatt (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by Hyatt) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, within 5 Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing Lender’s or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.

- 54 -

2.12 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing of Loans and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders in the currency in which such amount is denominated and in such funds as are customary at the place and time of payment for the settlement of international payments in such currency. Without limiting the terms of the preceding sentence, accrued interest on any Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be payable in such Foreign Currency. Each payment under this Credit Agreement or any Note shall be applied (i) first, to any Fees then due and owing, (ii) second, to interest then due and owing in respect of the Loans (whether or not evidenced by Notes) of the Borrower and (iii) third, to principal then due and owing hereunder and under the Loans (whether or not evidenced by Notes) of the Borrower. Each payment on account of the Facility Fees and the Letter of Credit Fees shall be made pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due and owing. Each payment (other than voluntary repayments and mandatory prepayments) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective amounts due and owing hereunder in the currency in which such amount is denominated and in such funds as are customary at the place and time of payment for the settlement of international payments in such currency. Without limiting the terms of the preceding sentence, accrued interest on any Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be payable in the same Foreign Currency as such Loan. Each voluntary repayment and mandatory prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.8. The obligation of the Borrower to make each payment on account of such amount in the currency in which such amount is denominated shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any other currency, except to the extent such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by the Administrative Agent of the full amount in the appropriate currency payable hereunder. With respect to Competitive Loans, if the Borrower fails to specify the particular Competitive Loan or Loans as to which any payment or other amount should be applied and it is not otherwise clear as to the particular Competitive Loan or Loans to which such payment or other amounts relate, or any such payment or other amount is to be applied to Competitive Loans without regard to any such direction by the Borrower, then each payment or prepayment of principal on Competitive Loans and each payment of interest or other amount on or in respect of Competitive Loans, shall be allocated pro rata among the relevant Competitive Loan Lenders in accordance with the then outstanding amounts of their respective Competitive Loans. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim (except as provided in Section 2.18(b)) and shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s Office specified in Section 10.2 and (i) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in Dollars, shall be made in Dollars not later than 1:00 P.M. on the date when due and (ii) in the case of Loans or other amounts denominated in a Foreign Currency, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be made in such Foreign Currency not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the date when due. Any payment received after the foregoing deadlines shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Rate Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

- 55 -

(b) Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of the Credit Party Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Credit Documents shall be paid over or delivered as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees of one outside counsel) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents;

SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees of one outside counsel (absent dissension among the Lenders or the Administrative Agent and the Lenders)) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Lender;

FOURTH, to the payment of all of the Credit Party Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest in respect of Swingline Loans;

FIFTH, to the payment of all of the other Credit Party Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest (including, without limitation, accrued fees and interest arising under any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider);

SIXTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Credit Party Obligations in respect of Swingline Loans;

SEVENTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the other Credit Party Obligations (including, without limitation, the payment or Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LOC Obligations, and including with respect to any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider, any breakage, termination or other payments due under such Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider and any interest accrued thereon);

EIGHTH, to all other Credit Party Obligations and other obligations which shall have become due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “SEVENTH” above; and

NINTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category, (ii) each of the Lenders and/or Hedging Agreement Providers shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Loans and LOC Obligations held by such Lender or the outstanding obligations payable to such Hedging Agreement Provider bears to the aggregate then outstanding Loans, LOC Obligations and obligations payable under all Hedging Agreements with a Hedging Agreement Provider) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “THIRD”, “FIFTH”, “SEVENTH” and “EIGHTH” above and (iii) Excluded Swap Obligations with respect

- 56 -

to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Credit Parties to preserve the allocation to Credit Party Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section.

2.13 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Lender prior to the date a Eurocurrency Rate Loan is to be made (or prior to 2:00 p.m. in the case of a Base Rate Loan) by such Lender (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent and any such payment by the Borrower shall not constitute a waiver of any right or remedy the Borrower may have with respect to any such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for the applicable borrowing pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing and (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Rate.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower, prior to the date on which any payment is due from it hereunder (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that the Borrower does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment when due, and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount equal to the portion of such assumed payment to which such Lender is entitled hereunder, and if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to such Lender. If such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent on a date after the date such amount was made available to such Lender, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to, if repaid to the Administrative Agent within two (2) days from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent, the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter at a rate equal to the Base Rate.

(c) A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Borrower or any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.13 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

2.14 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if (i) the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate (including, without limitation, because the Eurocurrency Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period, or (ii) the Required Lenders shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the

- 57 -

Eurocurrency Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding Eurocurrency Rate Loans that the Borrower has requested be outstanding as a Eurocurrency Rate tranche during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall (unless such determination has resulted because the Eurocurrency Rate is not available or published on a current basis) forthwith give telephone notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Borrower, and the Lenders at least two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. If such notice is given (A) any Foreign Currency Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of the Borrower, in Dollars as Base Rate Loans or such request shall be cancelled, (B) any affected Foreign Currency Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be converted to or continued, at the sole option of the Borrower, as Base Rate Loans, (c) any affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of the Borrower, in Dollars as Base Rate Loans and (d) any affected Loans that were requested to be converted into or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall remain as or be converted into Base Rate Loans. Until any such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Loans shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, Eurocurrency Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the circumstances set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 2.14(a) (1) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (2) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the Eurocurrency Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Eurocurrency Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurocurrency Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than ~~0.75~~0.25%, such rate shall be deemed to be ~~0.75~~0.25% for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date a copy of the amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (2) of the first sentence of this Section 2.14(b), only to the extent the Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable currency and such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any affected Loans that were requested to be converted into or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall remain as or be converted into Base Rate Loans and (y) no further Loans shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, Eurocurrency Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

2.15 Illegality.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for such Lender or its U.S. Eurocurrency Lending Office or Foreign Currency Lending Office to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans as contemplated by this Credit Agreement or to obtain in the interbank eurodollar market through its U.S. Eurocurrency Lending Office or Foreign Currency Lending Office the funds with which to make such Loans, (a) such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof, (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans as such shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall give notice that the condition or situation which gave rise to the suspension shall no longer exist, and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Rate Loans, if any,

- 58 -

shall be converted on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for actual and direct costs (but not including anticipated profits) reasonably incurred by such Lender including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurocurrency Rate Loans hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Eurocurrency Rate Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which may otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its U.S. Eurocurrency Lending Office or Foreign Currency Eurocurrency Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which may otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates which would make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make Loans denominated in an applicable Foreign Currency to the Borrower, as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, (i) such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof, (ii) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make such Foreign Currency Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall give notice that the condition or situation which gave rise to the suspension shall no longer exist, and (iii) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as such Foreign Currency Loans, if any, shall be, at the sole option of the Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law, (A) converted to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or (B) prepaid. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate the Lender for actual and direct costs (but not including anticipated profits) reasonably incurred by such Lender in making any repayment in accordance with this Section, attributable to the amount of any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its applicable Foreign Currency Loans hereunder, as provided in Section 2.16. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the affected Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts to avoid or to minimize any amounts which may otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

2.16 Requirements of Law.

(a) If any Change in Law made subsequent to the date hereof, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Credit Agreement, made subsequent to the date of such assignment or transfer (except to the extent the assigning or transferring Lender was entitled to benefits under this Section 2.16):

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the net income of such Lender or Taxes which the Borrower shall be required to pay, reimburse a Lender in respect of, or indemnify or hold harmless a Lender in respect of, in each case pursuant to Section 2.18);

- 59 -

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (taking into account all available tax credits, tax deductions or other tax benefits) of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any Note, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by such Lender with respect to its Eurocurrency Rate Loans. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be presumptive evidence of such additional amount in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Applicable Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this paragraph of this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender shall have reasonably determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or Issuing Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Lender in its sole discretion to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender or such Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender such additional amount as shall be certified by such Lender or such Issuing Lender as being required to compensate it for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable under this Section submitted by a Lender or Issuing Lender (which certificate shall include a description of the basis for the computation), through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be presumptive evidence of such additional amount in the absence of manifest error.

(c) The agreements in this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 in respect of increased costs or a reduction in the rate of return, if (i) written demand therefor has not been made by such Lender or such Issuing Lender within 180 days from the date on which such Lender or such Issuing Lender determined that any Change in Law has resulted in such increased cost or reduction in rate of return; provided that if the Change in Law

- 60 -

giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period shall be extended to include the retroactive effect thereof or (ii) such increased cost or reduction in rate of return is attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or the Issuing Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. No Lender or Issuing Lender shall request that the Borrower pay any additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.16 unless it shall concurrently make similar requests to other borrowers similarly situated and affected by such Change in Law and from whom such Lender is entitled to seek similar amounts.

2.17 Indemnity.

The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender harmless from any actual funding loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or interest on any Loan by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, (b) default by the Borrower in accepting a borrowing after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, (c) default by the Borrower in making any repayment, prepayment, continuation or conversion after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, and/or (d) the making by the Borrower of a repayment or prepayment of a Loan, or the conversion thereof, on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, in each case including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Loans hereunder, but excluding lost profits. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower (which certificate must be delivered to the Administrative Agent within thirty days following such default, repayment, prepayment or conversion or no such amount shall be owing) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.18 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower under the Credit Documents will be, except as provided in this Section 2.18, made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding (i) any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits (including any branch profits tax or alternative minimum tax imposed by the United States and any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction) of a Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) and (ii) any U.S. Federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA), and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees (i) to deduct or withhold such Taxes and to pay the full amount of such Taxes to the relevant taxing or Government Authority and (ii) except as provided in Section 2.18(b), to pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under any Credit Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies (to the extent reasonably available and required by law) of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such

- 61 -

Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender except as provided in Section 2.18(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) in respect of penalties, interest and other similar liabilities attributable to any Taxes, if (i) written demand therefor has not been made by such Lender within 180 days from the date on which such Lender received written notice of imposition of Taxes by the relevant taxing or Governmental Authority, but only to the extent such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to such failure or delay by the Lender in making such written demand, (ii) such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities have accrued after the Borrower had indemnified or paid an additional amount due pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) or (iii) such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. After the Lender receives written notice of the imposition of the Taxes which are subject to this Section 2.18(a), such Lender will act in good faith to promptly notify the Borrower of its obligations hereunder. No Lender shall request that the Borrower pay any Taxes or any gross-up therefor pursuant to this Section 2.18(a) unless it shall make similar requests to other borrowers similarly situated and affected by such Taxes and from whom such Lender is entitled to seek reimbursement for such Taxes or any gross-up therefor.

(b) Each Foreign Lender agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 10.6 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, or in the case of a Person that becomes a Lender in connection with the making of Additional Loans pursuant to Section 2.5, on or prior to the date such Person becomes a Lender (i)in the event the Borrower is Hyatt and the Foreign Lender is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI (or successor forms) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to a complete or partial exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Credit Agreement and under any Note, (ii) in the event the Borrower is Hyatt and the Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI as set forth in clause (i) above with the certification required in such clause (i), or (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Schedule 2.18 (any such certificate, a “2.18 Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or successor form) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Credit Agreement and under any Note and (iii) any other properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit payments under this Credit Agreement or any Note to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, each Lender agrees that it will deliver upon the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s request updated versions of the foregoing, as applicable, whenever the previous certification has become obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect (including as a result of a change in the Lender’s Applicable Lending Office), together with such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in withholding tax with respect to payments under this Credit Agreement and any Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(b)(i) and (ii) and 2.18(c)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.18(a), but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable under any Credit Document for the account of any Foreign Lender to the extent that such

- 62 -

Lender has not provided to the Borrower the documents and forms described above that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (y) the Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 2.18(a) hereof to make any additional payments to a Lender or to indemnify any Lender in respect of Taxes imposed on any payments of interest, fees or other amounts payable under the Credit Documents (I) if such Lender has not provided to the Borrower the documents and forms described above required to be provided to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.18(b), but excepting any such documents or forms (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(b)(i) and (ii) and 2.18(c)) not delivered based upon the Lender’s reasonable judgment that the completion, execution or submission of such documentation or forms would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender , (II) to the extent that such documents and forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of U.S. or Luxembourg withholding Taxes or (III) if the imposition of U.S. or Luxembourg withholding Taxes is the result of a change in the Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, except to the extent that such Lender was entitled to any such additional payments at the time of such change or such change was made at the request of the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 2.18, the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.18(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes that occur after (i) the Closing Date, (ii) in the case of a Lender that changes its Applicable Lending Office, to the extent that such Lender was not entitled to additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.18(a) at the time of a change in its Applicable Lending Office, the date of such change or (iii) in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Credit Agreement (other than pursuant to Section 2.20), to the extent that the assigning or transferring Lender was not entitled to additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.18(a) at the time of such assignment or transfer, the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender.

(c) If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.18(c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(d) Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Applicable Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens reasonably deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(e) If the Borrower pays any additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that such Lender shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts if either (i) it is in an excess foreign tax credit position or (ii) it believes in good faith that claiming

- 63 -

a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it. In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to the Borrower an amount that such Lender reasonably determines is equal to the net tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Borrower. In the event that no refund or credit is obtained with respect to the Borrower’s payments to such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18, then such Lender shall upon request provide a certification that such Lender has not received a refund or credit for such payments. Nothing contained in this Section 2.18 shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis of its determination referred to in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.18(e) to the Borrower or any other party or to make available its tax return or any other information related to its taxes which it deems confidential.

(f) The agreements in this Section 2.18 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.19 Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lender’s Duties.

(a) In addition to its other obligations under Section 2.4, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and hold each Issuing Lender harmless from and against any and all actual claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of one outside counsel (absent dissension among the Issuing Lenders)) that such Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance by such Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender as determined in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) the failure of such Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(b) As between the Borrower and an Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender by the beneficiary thereof. No Issuing Lender shall be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; and (vii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of an Issuing Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower. It is the intention of the parties that this Credit Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the Issuing Lenders against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Borrower, including, without limitation, any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any

- 64 -

Government Authority. No Issuing Lender shall, in any way, be liable for any failure by such Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of such Issuing Lender.

(d) Nothing in this Section 2.19 is intended to limit the reimbursement obligation of the Borrower contained in Section 2.4 hereof. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.19 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement. No act or omissions of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of an Issuing Lender thereof to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Credit Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.19, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify any Issuing Lender in respect of any liability incurred by such Issuing Lender arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

2.20 Replacement of Lenders.

The Borrower shall be permitted to replace with a financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent any Lender (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) (each a “Replaced Lender”) that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a) or pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement entered into pursuant to 2.23, (b) is a Defaulting Lender or (c) is a Sanctioned Person; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such Replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such Replaced Lender under Section 2.17 if any Eurocurrency Rate Loan owing to such Replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders, (vi) the Replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a), as the case may be, (viii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18, either such assignment will result in a reduction of such compensation or the replacement Lender shall not have a similar claim for such compensation, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the Replaced Lender. In the event any Replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section 10.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 2.20 (after two (2) days’ notice has been given to such Replaced Lender), such failure will not impair the validity of the removal of such Replaced Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Replaced Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Replaced Lender of the assignment documents required under Section 10.6 so long as (i) evidence of proof of receipt by such Replaced Lender of such assignment agreement is available and (ii) such Replaced Lender has been paid in full in cash on or prior to the effective date of such replacement. A Lender shall not be required to be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such replacement cease to apply.

- 65 -

2.21 Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 10.1.

(b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 6 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7. shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with subsection (e) below; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the future Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, an Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or Mandatory Borrowing owing by such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.4.(e) in respect of Letters of Credit (such amounts “L/C Disbursements”), in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Revolving Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded Participation Interests in LOC Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages and LOC Commitment Percentages, as applicable (determined without giving effect to the immediately following subsection (d)). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section 2.10(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay to such Defaulting Lender any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

- 66 -

(ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the fee payable under Section 2.10(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e).

(iii) With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i) or (ii), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LOC Obligations or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to each Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such Fee.

(d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LOC Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Subject to Section 10.22, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(e) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.

(i) If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection.

(ii) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within 3 Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time.

(iii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of LOC Obligations, to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the

- 67 -

Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders with respect to Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of LOC Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(v) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lenders in accordance with the immediately following subsection (f) or the assignment of such Defaulting Lender’s Loans and Commitment in accordance with Section 10.6), or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lenders may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Credit Documents.

(f) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded Participation Interests in LOC Obligations and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages and LOC Commitment Percentages, as applicable (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(g) New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

2.22 Funds Transfer Disbursements.

(a) Generally. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Credit Documents as

requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement. The Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or (ii) made in the Borrower’s name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions (and absent gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), even if not properly authorized by the Borrower. The Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment, the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower to effect a wire or funds transfer even if the information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, the Borrower agrees that no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Credit Documents, or any agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within fourteen (14) days after the Administrative Agent’s confirmation to the Borrower of such transfer.

(b) Funds Transfer. The Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. The Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization, (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority, (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline or (iv) otherwise cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Applicable Laws or regulation.

(c) Limitation of Liability. None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Lender shall be liable to the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which the Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Lender, (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Lender, or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, and the Borrower and the other Credit Parties shall not be liable to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender for any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, in each case whether or not (x) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender, any Lender or the Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation; provided that nothing set forth in this sentence shall affect or limit the Credit Parties’ obligations set forth in Section 10.5(e). None of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

- 69 -

Except as set forth in this Section 2.23(a), the Foreign Borrower must act through Hyatt for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Accordingly, any acknowledgment, direction, certification or other action (other than consent) which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by both Hyatt and the Foreign Borrower, or by each of Hyatt and the Foreign Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken by only Hyatt, whether or not the Foreign Borrower joins therein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the consent of Hyatt and the Foreign Borrower is required or requested in connection with any Credit Document, such consent shall be valid and effective only if given by both Hyatt and the Foreign Borrower. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to Hyatt in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Foreign Borrower.

(b) Joint and Several Liability of Hyatt. The obligations of Hyatt with respect to the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower shall be on a joint and several basis, and accordingly, Hyatt confirms that it is liable for the full amount of all of the Credit Party Obligations of the Foreign Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, with respect to Credit Party Obligations of any other Credit Party, the Foreign Borrower shall not (i) be liable for, (ii) guarantee or be deemed to guarantee, or (iii) allow its assets to serve as security for or offer security for such Credit Party Obligations.

2.24 Extension of Maturity Date.

Hyatt shall have the right to extend the Maturity Date with respect to each Extending Lender to January 10, 2024 (the period from January 11, 2023 until January 10, 2024, the “Extension Period”). Hyatt may exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, at least 30 days but not more than 120 days prior to the then-current Maturity Date (the date of such delivery, the “Extension Date”), a written notice of such extension (an “Extension Notice”). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Extending Lenders if it receives an Extension Notice promptly upon receipt thereof. The Maturity Date shall be extended for the Extension Period effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Extension Notice and subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions as of the Extension Date: (i) immediately prior to such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, (A) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence or would result therefrom and (B) the representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties herein or in any other Credit Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Extension Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Extension Date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Credit Documents, (ii) the Leverage Ratio for the

- 70 -

- 71 -

No Material Adverse Change.

Since the later of December 31, 2016 or the date of the most recently delivered annual audited financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(a), there has been no Material Adverse Effect.

Organization; Existence.

Each of the Credit Parties is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign entity and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Credit Parties has the corporate power and authority to own or hold under lease the material properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the material business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the Fee Letter and to perform the provisions hereof and thereof.

3.5

Authorization; Power; Enforceable Obligations.

This Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the Fee Letter have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties party thereto, and this Credit Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each other Credit Document and the Fee Letter will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties party thereto enforceable against the Borrower and any such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Each Credit Document and the Fee Letter to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower or the other Credit Parties, as the case may be.

3.6

Consent; Government Authorizations.

No approval, consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with acceptance of extensions of credit by the Borrower or the making of the guaranties hereunder, the grant of any Liens under the Collateral Documents or with the execution, delivery or performance of any Credit Documents or the Fee Letter by the other Credit Parties party thereto (other than (i) those which have been obtained and (ii) the filings and consents contemplated by the Collateral Documents) or with the validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or the Fee Letter against the Credit Parties party thereto.

(a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, if adversely determined would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default under any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any Applicable Law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

- 72 -

3.8

No Default.

No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

3.9

Taxes.

The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed all federal and all other material tax returns (state, local and foreign) that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all income taxes shown to be due and payable (including interest and penalties) on such returns and all other taxes and assessments due and payable by them (within any grace period provided for such payment), except for any taxes and assessments (a) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (b) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. None of the Credit Parties or their respective Subsidiaries is aware, as of the Closing Date, of any proposed tax assessments against it or any of its Subsidiaries which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.10

ERISA.

Neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to satisfy the “minimum funding standards” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Pension Plan, and each Pension Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except to the extent that any such occurrence or failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred resulting in any liability that has remained unfunded, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Pension Plan has arisen, during such five-year period which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Single Employer Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Single Employer Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by an amount which, as determined in accordance with GAAP, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is currently subject to any liability for a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Pension Plan has been determined to be “at risk” (within the meaning of Section 430 of the Code or Section 303 of ERISA) or is reasonably likely to become so. No Multiemployer Plan has been determined to be in “critical” status (within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code or Section 304 of ERISA) except where such determination could not reasonably be expected to result in material liability to Hyatt or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither Hyatt nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice regarding a Multiemployer Plan being in Insolvency. All required contributions have been timely made to each Pension Plan and no application for a waiver of the minimum funding standard has been made with respect to any Pension Plan. Except as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) Borrower has not engaged in a breach of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Pension Plan, and (ii) no “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) that is maintained or contributed to by Borrower has been assessed, or is reasonably expected to have been assessed, a tax or penalty under Code Section 4980H.

- 73 -

3.11 Governmental Regulations, Etc.

(a) No part of the proceeds of the Loans hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U, or for the purpose of purchasing or carrying or trading in any securities. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form U-1 referred to in said Regulation U. No Indebtedness being reduced or retired out of the proceeds of the Loans hereunder was or will be incurred for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U or any “margin security” within the meaning of Regulation T. “Margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the Consolidated Assets of Hyatt and its Subsidiaries. Neither the execution and delivery hereof by the Borrower, nor the performance by it of any of the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, the direct or indirect use of the proceeds of the Loans) will violate or result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or regulations issued pursuant thereto, or Regulation T, U or X.

(b) The Borrower is not an “investment company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is not controlled by such a company.

3.12 Subsidiaries.

(a) As of the Second Amendment Effective Date, Schedule 3.12 is (except as noted therein) a complete and correct list of Hyatt’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by Hyatt and each other Subsidiary and an indication whether such Subsidiary is, as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, a Material Subsidiary.

(b) Each of the Material Subsidiaries is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact.

3.13 Use of Proceeds.

The Extensions of Credit will be used solely (a) to refinance the Existing Facility and certain other Indebtedness of the Borrower and to pay certain fees and expenses related thereto and (b) to provide for the working capital and general corporate requirements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the financing of investments and acquisitions not prohibited hereunder and the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries will use any proceeds of the Loans or any Letter of Credit (a) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (b) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country or (c) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

- 74 -

3.14 Contractual Obligations; Compliance with Laws; No Conflicts.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, as applicable, of this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the Fee Letter will not (a) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) in respect of any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, or any other Material agreement or instrument to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected except to the extent that the same could not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, (c) violate any Requirement of Law applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (except those as to which waivers or consents have been obtained) or (d) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of such Person.

3.15 Accuracy and Completeness of Information.

Factual statements contained in the Credit Documents and any other certificates or documents furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by or on behalf of any Credit Party from time to time pursuant to this Agreement (in any case excluding any projections, budgets and estimates), taken as a whole, and taking into consideration all corrections or substituted documents, do not and will not, as of the date when made, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made, all except as otherwise qualified herein.

All projections, budgets and estimates delivered hereunder represent as of the date delivered the good faith estimate of Hyatt and its senior management concerning the financial condition, financial performance and course of the business of Hyatt and its Subsidiaries; provided such projections, budgets and estimates are not to be viewed as fact, and actual results during the period covered thereby may differ from such projections, budgets and estimates and such differences may be Material.

3.16 Environmental Matters.

Except as to matters which individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

(a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by the any of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries (the “Properties”) do not contain any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute a violation of, or (ii) have resulted in liability under, any Environmental Law.

3.17 Solvency.

After taking into account rights of contribution, the fair saleable value of the assets of the Borrower, individually, and of Hyatt and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, measured on a going concern basis, exceeds all probable liabilities, including those to be incurred pursuant to this Agreement. The Credit Parties taken as a whole (a) do not have unreasonably small capital in relation to the business in which they are or propose to be engaged and (b) have not incurred or do not believe that they will incur after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Credit Agreement, debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they become due.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Credit Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Credit Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Credit Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Laws. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5 that the Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document not already delivered or otherwise made available to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Credit Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Credit Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Credit Party Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Credit Party Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or Applicable Laws. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Credit Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Required Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders.

The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Credit Documents, and each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and, by accepting the benefits thereof, each Hedging Agreement Provider hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest, charge or other Lien created by the Collateral Documents for

- 98 -

and on behalf of or in trust for) such Secured Party for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Credit Parties to secure any of the Credit Party Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Section 8 (including Section 8.6, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Credit Documents) and Section 10.5 as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto and all references to Administrative Agent in this Section 8 shall, where applicable, be read as including a reference to the “collateral agent”. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize (i) the Administrative Agent as collateral agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Collateral Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party and (ii) the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, any and all documents (including releases, payoff letters and similar documents) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto (including any intercreditor agreement), as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by the Administrative Agent shall bind the Secured Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or any other Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Credit Documents have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section or in any of the Credit Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, and that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any Secured Party or any other Person.

8.2

Xxxxx Fargo as Lender.

Xxxxx Fargo, as a Lender or as a Hedging Agreement Provider, as the case may be, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Credit Document and under any Hedging Agreement, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Hedging Agreement Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Xxxxx Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Xxxxx Fargo and its Affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Issuing Lenders, other Lenders, or any other Hedging Agreement Providers. Further, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Hedging Agreement, or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Lenders, the other Lenders or any other Hedging Agreement Providers. The Issuing Lenders and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Xxxxx Fargo or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower, other Credit Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

- 99 -

8.3

Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved and (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and, as appropriate, a brief summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved.

8.4

Notice of Events of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”; provided, a Lender’s failure to provide such a “notice of default” to the Administrative Agent shall not result in any liability of such Lender to any other party to any of the Credit Documents. Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

8.5

Administrative Agent’s Reliance.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein or therein as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Credit Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Credit Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender or any Issuing Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any Collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in any such Collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Credit Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or

- 100 -

electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Credit Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such agent or attorney in fact as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.

8.6

Indemnification of Administrative Agent.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Credit Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Credit Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Credit Documents and/or collect any Credit Party Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Credit Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

8.7

Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties has made any representations or warranties to such Issuing Lender or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be

- 101 -

deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Issuing Lender or any Lender. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Credit Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Credit Party of the Credit Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuing Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or any Issuing Lender.

8.8

Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no Lender or Eligible Assignee has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as bailee, trustee or other applicable capacity until such time as a successor of such Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender and the applicable Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders and the

- 102 -

Issuing Lenders so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender or Issuing Lender were itself the Administrative Agent.

(b) If the Lender serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person, remove such Lender as Administrative Agent. Upon any such removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Titled Agent (as defined in Section 8.9) and any of its Affiliates as a successor Administrative Agent). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days of notice of such removal (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date and (1) the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and at the request of Hyatt, shall deliver to Hyatt a copy of the Register and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the current Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender and the applicable Issuing Lenders directly, until such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided, further that such Lenders and the Issuing Lenders so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender or Issuing Lender were itself the Administrative Agent.

(c) Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent as set forth in clause (a) or (b) above, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and unless previously discharged in accordance with clause (a) or (b) above, the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Credit Documents. Any resignation or removal by an Administrative Agent shall also constitute the resignation or removal as an Issuing Lender and as the Swingline Lender by the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent (the “Resigning/Removed Lender”). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) the Resigning/Removed Lender shall be discharged from all duties and obligations of an Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and (ii) one or more of the other Issuing Lenders shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit issued by the Resigning/Removed Lender as Issuing Lender outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters of credit issued in substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or, only in the case of the resignation of the Administrative Agent as provide in clause (a) above, make other arrangements satisfactory to the Resigning/Removed Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the Resigning/Removed Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Credit Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written notice.

8.9

Titled Agents.

Each of the Syndication Agent, Co-Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners and Co-Documentation Agents (each a “Titled Agent”) in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation

- 103 -

hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles given to the Titled Agents are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

8.10

Patriot Act Notice.

The Patriot Act and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution. Consequently, a Lender (for itself and/or as agent for all Lenders hereunder) may from time-to-time request, and the Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Credit Parties to, provide promptly upon any such request to such Lender, such Credit Party’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for such Lender to comply with federal law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.

8.11

Intercreditor Agreement.

The Administrative Agent is authorized by the Lenders and the other Secured Parties (including any Hedge Agreement Provider by its acceptance of such collateral security) to (i) enter into the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor agreement expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) enter into any Collateral Document, or (iii) make or consent to any filings or take any other actions in connection therewith (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Credit Party of any Indebtedness of such Credit Party that is permitted to be secured pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.7 of this Agreement, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien on the Collateral), and the parties hereto acknowledge that any intercreditor agreement, Collateral Document, consent, filing or other action will be binding upon them. Each Lender and other Secured Party (a) understands, acknowledges and agrees that Liens will be created on the Collateral pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Facility and/or any Secured Refinancing Facility and the collateral agreements securing obligations under the Bridge Facility and/or any Secured Refinancing Facility, which Liens shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, (b) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement (if entered into) and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor agreement expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any other Credit Document or Collateral Document (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Credit Party of any Indebtedness of such Credit Party that is permitted to be secured pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.7 of this Agreement, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien on the Collateral (with such priority as may be designated by such Credit Party, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Credit Documents)), and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Credit Party Obligations to the provisions thereof.

SECTION 9

GUARANTY

9.1

The Guaranty.

In order to induce the Lenders and Issuing Lenders to enter into this Credit Agreement and any Hedging Agreement Provider to enter into any Hedging Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and thereunder and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by the Guarantors from the Extensions of Credit hereunder and any Hedging Agreement, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders as follows: the Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably jointly and severally guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of any and all Guarantied Credit Party Obligations owed to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereunder and the Hedging Agreement Providers under any Hedging Agreement. If any or all of the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations become due and payable hereunder or under any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider, each Guarantor unconditionally promises to pay such Guarantied Credit Party Obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Hedging Agreement Providers, or their respective order, or demand, together with any and all reasonable expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Hedging Agreement Providers in collecting any of the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations. As used in this Section 9, Guarantied Credit Party Obligations shall include all Guarantied Credit Party Obligations now, or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, whether or not such Guarantied Credit Party Obligations are from time to time reduced, or extinguished and thereafter increased or incurred, whether the Borrower and the Guarantors may be liable individually or jointly with others, whether or not recovery upon such Guarantied Credit Party Obligations may be or hereafter become barred by any statute of limitations, and whether or not such Guarantied Credit Party Obligations may be or hereafter become otherwise unenforceable. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Credit Documents (a) to the extent the obligations of a Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any Applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of each such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under Applicable Law (including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code or its non-U.S. equivalent) and (b) this Guaranty shall not be deemed to cover any Excluded Swap Obligations.

9.2

Bankruptcy.

Additionally, each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally the payment of any and all Guarantied Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and any Hedging Agreement Provider whether or not due or payable by the Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 7.1(e) as applicable to the Borrower or any Subsidiaries of the Borrower, and unconditionally promises to pay such Guarantied Credit Party Obligations to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and to any such Hedging Agreement Provider, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that to the extent that the Borrower or a Guarantor shall make a payment or a transfer of an interest in any property to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Hedging Agreement Provider, which payment or transfer or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or otherwise is avoided, and/or required to be repaid to the

- 105 -

Borrower or a Guarantor, the estate of the Borrower or a Guarantor, a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or other Applicable Law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such avoidance or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

9.3

Nature of Liability.

The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is absolute and unconditional and exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower whether executed by any such Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and no Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or any Hedging Agreement Provider on the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations that the Administrative Agent, such Lenders, such Issuing Lenders or such Hedging Agreement Provider repay the Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each of the Guarantors waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding or (f) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations) that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a guarantor or a borrower other than the payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations.

The guaranty under this Section 9 is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guarantied Credit Party Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Credit Party Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Section 9 are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and any commitments of the Lenders or facilities provided by the Lenders with respect to the Credit Party Obligations are terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantors is made, or the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, exercises its right of set-off, in respect of the Credit Party Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, is in possession of or has released this guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction; provided, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Issuing Lender shall have any set-off rights against accounts of any Credit Party under hotel management agreements pursuant to which such Credit Party is acting as agent for a third party with respect to the amounts in such account. The obligations of the Guarantors under the preceding sentence shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement.

9.4

Independent Obligation.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor or the Borrower and whether or not any other Guarantor or the Borrower is joined in any such action or actions.

- 106 -

9.5

Authorization.

Each of the Guarantors authorizes the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Hedging Agreement Provider without notice or demand (except as shall be required by Applicable Law and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, compromise, extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof in accordance with this Credit Agreement and any Hedging Agreement, as applicable, including any increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon, (b) take and hold security from any Guarantor or any other party for the payment of this Guaranty or the Credit Party Obligations and exchange, enforce waive and release any such security, (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in their discretion may determine and (d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, Guarantors, the Borrower or other obligors.

9.6

Reliance.

It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or any Hedging Agreement Providers to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

9.7

Waiver.

(a) Each of the Guarantors waives any right (except as shall be required by Applicable Law and cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Hedging Agreement Provider to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s, any Lender’s, any Issuing Lender’s or any Hedging Agreement Provider’s power whatsoever. Each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party other than payment in full in cash of the Credit Party Obligations, including without limitation any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations. The Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or Issuing Lenders may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent or a Lender or Issuing Lender by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by Applicable Law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Administrative Agent and any Lender may have against the Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Credit Party Obligations have been paid in full. Each of the Guarantors, to the extent permitted by law, waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Guarantors against the Borrower or any other party or any security.

(b) Each of the Guarantors waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notice of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Credit Party Obligations. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the

- 107 -

risk of nonpayment of the Credit Party Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Issuing Lender shall have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it regarding such circumstances or risks.

(c) Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees it will not exercise any rights of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the claims of the Lenders, Issuing Lenders or the Hedging Agreement Provider against the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Lenders, Issuing Lenders or such Hedging Agreement Provider (collectively, the “Other Parties”) and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Other Party which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty until such time as the Credit Party Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, no Credit Document or Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider remains in effect and the Commitments have been terminated. Each of the Guarantors hereby further agrees not to exercise any right to enforce any other remedy which the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or any Hedging Agreement Provider now have or may hereafter have against any Other Party, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to or for the benefit of the Lenders, Issuing Lenders and/or the Hedging Agreement Providers to secure payment of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower until such time as the Credit Party Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, no Credit Document or Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider remains in effect and the Commitments have been terminated.

9.8

Limitation on Enforcement.

The Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Hedging Agreement Providers agree that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or any such Hedging Agreement Provider (only with respect to obligations under the applicable Hedging Agreement entered into with such Hedging Agreement Provider) and that no Lender, Issuing Lender or Hedging Agreement Provider shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders under the terms of this Credit Agreement and for the benefit of any Hedging Agreement Provider under any Hedging Agreement provided by such Hedging Agreement Provider. The Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Hedging Agreement Providers further agree that this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee or stockholder of the Guarantors or any Pritzker Affiliate other than the Guarantors.

9.9

Confirmation of Payment.

The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders will, upon request after payment of the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations under the Credit Documents which are the subject of this Guaranty and termination of the Commitments relating thereto, confirm to the Borrower, the Guarantors or any other Person that the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations under the Credit Documents have been paid in full and the Commitments relating thereto terminated, subject to the provisions of Section 9.2.

- 108 -

9.10

Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

The Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and each Hedging Agreement Provider by its acceptance of such Guaranty or Collateral, irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(i) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder and, unless such Guarantor is required to provide a guaranty pursuant to Section 5.8(a), to release such Subsidiary as a Guarantor as of the Security Release Date; and

(ii) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document (a) upon the date upon which (x) the Commitments have been terminated, (y) no Loans or Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized) remain outstanding and (z) all amounts owing hereunder or under any other Credit Document or the Fee Letter or in connection herewith or therewith have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification of the Credit Party Obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted), (b) that is sold, disposed of or transferred or to be sold, disposed of or transferred as part of or in connection with any sale, disposition or transfer permitted hereunder and under each other Credit Document to a Person that is not a Credit Party, (c) if the Property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon the release of such Credit Party from its Guaranty otherwise in accordance with the Credit Documents, (d) that is Collateral provided under the Security Agreement and that constitutes Excluded Assets, (e) upon the occurrence of the Security Release Date or (f) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.21.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty or to release any Lien under any Collateral Document, in each case, pursuant to this Section 9.10. Further, in each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to (i) evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents pursuant to this Section 9.10 and (ii) to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing any release of a Guarantor or a Lien shall be conditioned on such Subsidiary or Collateral being released substantially simultaneously under the Bridge Facility or any Secured Refinancing Facility.

9.11

Keepwell.

Each of Hyatt and each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.11, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under Applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each of Hyatt and each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 9.11 shall remain in full force and effect until all Guarantied Credit Party Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Section 9 are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and any Commitments of the Lenders or facilities provided by the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to the Guarantied Credit Party Obligations are terminated. Each of Hyatt and each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.11 constitute, and this Section 9.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

9.12 Administrative

Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim.

In the case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Credit Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

(ii) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Credit Party Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.5 of this Agreement allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(iii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.5. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent, its agent and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.5 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Credit Party Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

SECTION 10

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1

Amendments and Waivers.

Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Credit Agreement, nor any of the other Credit Documents, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of

- 110 -

the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the Borrower written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, waiver, supplement, modification or release shall:

(i) reduce the amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or Note or any installment thereon, or reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate or as a result of amendments effected pursuant to Section 2.14) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or

(ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 10.1 or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, without the written consent of all the Lenders; or

(iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent; or

(iv) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty (provided that (A) the release of less than substantially all of the Guarantors shall solely require the consent of the Required Lenders and (B) no consent of the Lenders shall be required for the release of any Guarantor that ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction not prohibited hereunder provided no Event of Default shall exist or arise as a result of such release) without the written consent of all the Lenders; or

(v) amend, modify or waive any provision of the Credit Documents requiring consent, approval or request of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, without the written consent of the Required Lenders or of all Lenders as appropriate; or

(vi) amend or modify the definition of Credit Party Obligations to delete or exclude any obligation or liability described therein without the written consent of each Lender and each Hedging Agreement Provider directly affected thereby; or

(vii) amend, modify or waive the order in which Credit Party Obligations are paid in Section 2.12(b) without the written consent of each Lender and each Hedging Agreement Provider directly affected thereby;

provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender (in such capacity) or the Swingline Lender (in such capacity) under any Credit Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action.

Any such waiver, any such amendment, supplement or modification and any such release shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders, the other Credit

- 111 -

Parties, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans and Notes and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default permanently waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of Section 8 (other than the provisions of Section 8.9 and any other provision the effect of which is adverse to the Credit Parties); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent will provide written notice to the Borrower of any such amendment, modification or waiver. In addition, the Borrower and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to modify this Credit Agreement by unilaterally amending or supplementing Schedule 2.1(a) from time to time in the manner requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to reflect any assignments or transfers of the Loans as provided for and permitted hereunder; provided further, however, that the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of any such modification to the Borrower and each Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (A) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein and (B) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Credit Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder or under any other Credit Document (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the written consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the written consent of such Defaulting Lender.

The Borrower shall be permitted to replace with a replacement financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender (other than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) that fails to consent to any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof or of any other Credit Document that requires the unanimous approval of all of the Lenders, the approval of all of the Lenders affected thereby or the approval of a class of Lenders, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.1, so long as the consent of the Required Lenders shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent; provided that (a) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (b) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such Replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (c) the replacement financial institution shall approve the proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent, (d) the Borrower shall be liable to such Replaced Lender under Section 2.17 if any Eurocurrency Rate Loan owing to such Replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (e) the Replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (f) until such time as such

- 112 -

replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay to the Replaced Lender all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.18(a), as the case may be, (g) the Borrower provides at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to such Replaced Lender, and (h) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the Replaced Lender. In the event any Replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section 10.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 10.1 (after two (2) days’ notice has been given to such Replaced Lender), such failure will not impair the validity of the removal of such Replaced Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Replaced Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Replaced Lender of the assignment documents required under Section 10.6 so long as (i) evidence of proof of receipt by such Replaced Lender of such assignment agreement is available and (ii) such Replaced Lender has been paid in full in cash on or prior to the effective date of such replacement. A Lender shall not be required to be replaced if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such replacement cease to apply.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or an inconsistency between or among provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely affect the interests of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders. Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any of other party to this Agreement.

10.2

The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications

10.3

No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4

Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the Notes and the making of the Loans; provided that all such representations and warranties shall terminate on the date upon which the Commitments have been terminated and all Credit Party Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations a claim for which has not yet been asserted).

10.5

Payment of Expenses and Taxes.

The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, printing and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents, the Fee Letter and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, together with the reasonable fees and disbursements of one outside counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lead Arrangers, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent for all of their respective reasonable out-of-pockets costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the Fee Letter, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and to each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders, provided that, absent an actual or perceived conflict of interest, the Borrower shall only be required to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Lenders and each Lender, in the aggregate, for one outside law firm, (c) on demand, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay by the Borrower in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, the Credit Documents, the Fee Letter and any such other documents, (d) to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Administrative Agent, including as its role as “collateral agent” with respect to the exercise of any right or remedy the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, including but not limited to, the foreclosure upon, or seizure of, any Collateral or exercise of any other rights of a secured party, (e) to pay or reimburse each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs, fees or expenses incurred in connection with any investigation (including, without limitation, background checks) performed to

- 116 -

determine whether the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any officer, director, shareholder or Affiliate of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has violated any Anti-Money Laundering Laws, Anti-Corruption Laws or other similar law and (f) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, each Issuing Lender the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, their respective Affiliates and their respective other Related Parties (an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs (including, without limitation, settlement costs), expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever from third party claims (other than claims by taxing authorities) with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of the Credit Documents, the Fee Letter and any such other documents and the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to the an Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final non-appealable judgment. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Notes and all other Credit Party Obligations. The obligations of the Foreign Borrower with respect to the indemnification and cost and expense reimbursement obligations set forth above and in the other Credit Documents shall, to the extent reasonably ascertainable, be limited to losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses arising out of or relating to the obligations of the Foreign Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including the enforcement thereof) and the Foreign Borrower’s use or proposed use of the proceeds of any Loan made to it.

10.6

Successors and Assigns.

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

- 117 -

(B) in any case not described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable, would be less than $5,000,000, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of a Competitive Loan.

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

(C) the consent of (1) the Issuing Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding) and (2) the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Commitment.

- 118 -

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates (other than an Affiliate of The Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Group, Inc. that is a Lender as of the First Amendment Effective Date) or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii) No Assignment to Competitors. No such assignment shall be made to any competitor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in the hospitality or lodging industry.

(viii) Assignments Involving Defaulting Lenders. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (viii), if any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this Section, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17 and 10.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the immediately following subsection (d); provided, an assignment that does not comply with subsection (b)(vii) shall not be treated as a participation and shall be of no effect.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and

- 119 -

Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) no participation may be sold to any competitor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in the hospitality or lodging industry. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of any Credit Document described in the first proviso of Section 10.1 that adversely affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15 through 2.18 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.18(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(b) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under any of Sections 2.15 through 2.18, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

- 120 -

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) No Registration. Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

(g) Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act, prior to any Lender that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) Each Lender agrees that if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 7.1(e), or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off), each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to any Credit Party, any such notice being expressly waived by the Credit Parties to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, but subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Required Lenders exercised in their sole discretion, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding set-off of trust and payroll accounts), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties to such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Lender against the Borrower, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under any other Credit Document, the Fee Letter or any Hedging Agreement with a Hedging Agreement Provider provided by such Lender

- 121 -

pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement, as such Lender may elect, whether or not such Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured; provided, however, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any set-off rights against accounts of any Credit Party under hotel management agreements pursuant to which such Credit Party is acting as agent for a third party with respect to the amounts in such account. The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by such Lender against the Credit Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of any such Credit Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against any such Credit Party or any such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of set-off shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the applicable Credit Party and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.21 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (a) any release of all or substantially all of the Specified Guarantors from their obligations under the Collateral Documents prior to the Security Release Date shall require the written consent of all the Lenders (provided that (i) the release of less than substantially all of the Specified Guarantors shall solely require the consent of the Required Lenders and (ii) no consent of the Lenders shall be required for the release of any Specified Guarantor that ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction not prohibited hereunder provided that no Event of Default shall exist or arise as a result of such release); (b) any release of all or substantially all of the Liens on the Collateral in any transaction or series of transactions prior to the Security Release Date, shall require the written consent of all directly or adversely affected Lenders and/or (c) any amendments to the Credit Documents that would have the effect of subordinating the Lenders’ security interest in all or substantially all Collateral prior to the Security Release Date, shall require the written consent of all directly or adversely affected Lenders.

10.22 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a

- 127 -

bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

10.23 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 10.23, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

- 128 -

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).
