4.15 Section 9.16 of the Loan Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Carried Ratio’ means either the Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio or the Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio, as applicable.
On each Test Date, the Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio and the Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio shall both be calculated. If the Facility’s Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio on any such Test Date meets or exceeds the Minimum Yield/Constant Carried Ratio, the Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test shall be deemed satisfied.
If the Facility’s Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio on any Test Date meets or exceeds the Minimum Yield/Constant Carried Ratio, the Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test shall be deemed satisfied; provided, however, that if on the same such Test Date the Facility’s Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio fails to meet or exceed the Minimum Yield/Constant Carried Ratio, such failure shall not constitute a Default, but no further disbursements of Loan proceeds shall be made unless and until the Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test is met on a subsequent Test Date, except such Loan disbursements which may be made without causing the Facility to fail to meet the applicable Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio.
Borrower’s failure to timely satisfy any Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test set forth herein shall not constitute a Default so long as Borrower, within thirty (30) days of the applicable Test Date, pays down the outstanding principal balance of the Loan by an amount necessary to satisfy the applicable minimum Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio, and any such payment shall reduce the commitment of Lenders hereunder by the amount of such payment and no such amount repaid may be reborrowed. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the foregoing, if Borrower fails to timely satisfy any Principal Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test set forth herein, then no further disbursements of Loan proceeds shall be made until the Commitment Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test is met on a subsequent Test Date.
Notwithstanding any larger management fee to be paid under the Management Agreement, for purposes of this Section 9.16, Net Operating Income shall be calculated using a management fee equal to five percent (5%) of such Gross Revenues; provided, however, that (i) Borrower shall not pay a management fee in excess of 5% unless Borrower is in compliance with the requirements of this Section 9.16, and (ii) the Management Agreement shall include a subordination by the manager of any fee in excess of 5% on a basis consistent with the foregoing limitation. For purposes of the Yield/Constant Carried Ratio test set forth in this Section 9.16, Permitted Operating Expenses shall not include any contributions to any ‘FF&E Reserve’ (as such term is defined in the Management Agreement).”

“p. Default Under the Parent Credit Agreement. If there occurs an “Event of Default” (as defined in the Parent Credit Agreement) under the Parent Credit Agreement or any other default, event or circumstance which, under the terms of Parent Credit Agreement, gives any of the Parent Credit Parties the right to accelerate the “Maturity Date” (as defined in the Parent Credit Agreement) and the Parent Credit Parties actually accelerate such “Maturity Date”; provided, however, that Borrower’s failure to, within three (3) days of receipt of notice thereof, provide Administrative Agent with notice of any such “Event of Default” or other default or event or circumstance, regardless of whether any acceleration has occurred under the Parent Credit Agreement, shall, at Administrative Agent’s option, constitute a Default hereunder.”

“NOTICES.

GUARANTOR'S CONSENT AND GENERAL RELEASE
The undersigned ("Guarantor") consents to the foregoing Modification Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and reaffirms its obligations under a Repayment Guaranty (Secured Loan) and a Completion Guaranty, each dated April 10, 2008 (collectively, the "Guaranty"), and its waivers, as set forth in the Guaranty, of each and every one of the possible defenses to such obligations. Guarantor further reaffirms that its obligations under the Guaranty are separate and distinct from Borrower's obligations. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Modification Agreement.
Guarantor understands that the Administrative Agent's exercise of a non-judicial foreclosure sale under the subject Deed of Trust will, by virtue of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580d, result in the destruction of any subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights which Guarantor may have against the Borrower. Guarantor further understands that such exercise by Administrative Agent and the consequent destruction of subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights would constitute a defense to the enforcement of the Guaranty by Administrative Agent. With this explicit understanding, Guarantor nevertheless specifically waives any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Administrative Agent, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise. Guarantor further specifically waives any and all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (1) Administrative Agent may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower; (2) if Administrative Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Administrative Agent may collect from Guarantor even if Administrative Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses being waived by Guarantor include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. This understanding and waiver is made in addition to and not in limitation of any of the existing terms and conditions of the Guaranty.
GENERAL RELEASE. In consideration of the benefits provided to Borrower and Guarantor under the terms and provisions hereof, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows ("General Release"):
(a) Guarantor, for itself and on behalf of its successors and assigns, does hereby release, acquit and forever discharge Administrative Agent and the Lenders, all of Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ predecessors in interest, and all of Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ past and present officers, directors, attorneys, affiliates, employees and agents, of and from any and all claims, demands, obligations, liabilities, indebtedness, breaches of contract, breaches of duty or of any relationship, acts, omissions, misfeasance, malfeasance, causes of action, defenses, offsets, debts, sums of money, accounts, compensation, contracts, controversies, promises, damages, costs, losses and expenses, of every type, kind, nature, description or character, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, liquidated or unliquidated, each as though fully set forth herein at length (each, a "Released Claim" and collectively, the "Released Claims"), that Guarantor now has or may acquire as of the later of: (i) the date this Agreement becomes effective through the satisfaction (or waiver by all of Administrative Agent and the Lenders) of all conditions hereto; or (ii) the date that Borrower and each guarantor hereunder have executed and delivered this Agreement to Administrative Agent (hereafter, the "Release Date"), including without limitation, those Released Claims in any way arising out of, connected with or related to any and all prior credit accommodations, if any, provided by Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ predecessors in interest, to Borrower or Guarantor, and any agreements, notes or documents of any kind related thereto or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby, or any other agreement or document referred to herein or therein.
(b) Guarantor hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders as follows:
(i) Guarantor understands the meaning and effect of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides:
Page 13 of 25
Loan No. 105706
"Section 1542. GENERAL RELEASE; EXTENT. A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."
(ii) With regard to Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, Guarantor agrees to assume the risk of any and all unknown, unanticipated or misunderstood defenses and Released Claims which are released by the provisions of this General Release in favor of each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and Guarantor hereby waives and releases all rights and benefits which it might otherwise have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code with regard to the release of such unknown, unanticipated or misunderstood defenses and Released Claims.
(c) Each person signing below on behalf of Guarantor acknowledges that he or she has read each of the provisions of this General Release. Each such person fully understands that this General Release has important legal consequences, and each such person realizes that they are releasing any and all Released Claims that Guarantor may have as of the Release Date. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to obtain a lawyer's advice concerning the legal consequences of each of the provisions of this General Release.
(d) Guarantor hereby specifically acknowledges and agrees that: (i) none of the provisions of this General Release shall be construed as or constitute an admission of any liability on the part of any of Administrative Agent and the Lenders; (ii) the provisions of this General Release shall constitute an absolute bar to any Released Claim of any kind, whether any such Released Claim is based on contract, tort, warranty, mistake or any other theory, whether legal, statutory or equitable; and (iii) any attempt to assert a Released Claim barred by the provisions of this General Release shall subject Guarantor to the provisions of applicable law setting forth the remedies for the bringing of groundless, frivolous or baseless claims or causes of action.
AMENDMENT. In consideration of the benefits provided to Borrower, Guarantor and Administrative Agent under the terms and provisions hereof, Guarantor and Administrative Agent hereby agree that Section 20 of the Completion Guaranty (Financial Covenants of Guarantor) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“20. Intentionally Omitted.”
