1. Interest.
--------
Host Marriott, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (hereinafter
called the "Company," which term includes any successors under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of
this Security at the rate of 9 1/4% per annum from October 6, 2000 until
maturity. To the extent it is lawful, the Company promises to pay interest on
any interest payment due but unpaid on such principal amount at a rate of 9 1/4%
per annum compounded semi-annually.
The Company will pay interest semi-annually on April 1 and October 1
of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing April 1, 2001.
Interest on the 9 1/4% Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid on the 9 1/4%
Securities, from the date of the original issuance. Interest will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
2. Method of Payment.
-----------------
The Company shall pay interest on the 9 1/4% Securities (except defaulted
interest) to the Persons who are the registered Holders at the close of business
on the Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Holders must
surrender 9 1/4% Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.
Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 9 1/4% Securities will be
payable in United States Dollars at the office or agency of the Company
maintained for such purpose, in the
________________________
/6/ To be included only on Transfer Restricted Notes.
A-5
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or at the option of the Company,
payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the 9 1/4%
Securities at the addresses set forth upon the registry books of the Company;
provided, however, Holders of Global Securities will be entitled to receive
interest payments (other than at maturity) by wire transfer of immediately
available funds, if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in
writing by the Trustee not fewer than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. Such wire instructions, upon receipt by the Trustee, shall remain
in effect until revoked by such Holder. No service charge will be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of 9 1/4% Securities, but the Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection therewith.
3. Paying Agent and Registrar.
--------------------------
Initially, HSBC Bank USA will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The
Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice to
the Holders. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain
exceptions, act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar.
4. Indenture.
---------
The Company issued the 9 1/4% Securities and the Subsidiary Guarantors
issued their Guarantees under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of
August 5, 1998, as supplemented (the "Indenture"), between the Company, its
Parents, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. Capitalized terms herein are
used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The 9 1/4%
Securities are limited in aggregate principal amount to $250,000,000. The terms
of the 9 1/4% Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made
part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in
effect on the date of the Indenture. The 9 1/4% Securities are subject to all
such terms, and Holders of 9 1/4% Securities are referred to the Indenture and
said Act for a statement of them. The 9 1/4% Securities are senior, general
obligations of the Company, secured initially by a pledge of Capital Stock of
certain Subsidiaries of the Company, which pledge is shared equally and ratably
with the Credit Facility, the Existing Senior Notes, the Series A Notes, the
Series B Notes, the Series C Notes, the Series E Notes and certain future
Indebtedness of the Company ranking pari passu with the 9 1/4% Securities. Each
Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound
by the provisions of the Indenture, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on
his behalf to take such action as may be provided in the Indenture and (c)
appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for such purpose.
5. Redemption.
----------
The Company may redeem the 9 1/4% Securities in whole but not in part
at any time at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof
plus the Make-Whole Premium, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
if any, to the applicable Redemption Date. Notice of a redemption of the 9 1/4%
Securities
A-6
made pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall be given in the manner set forth in
Section 3.3 of the Indenture; provided, however, that any such notice need not
-------- -------
set forth the Redemption Price but need only set forth the calculation thereof
as described in the immediately preceding paragraph of this paragraph 5. The
Redemption Price, calculated as aforesaid, shall be set forth in an Officer's
Certificate delivered by the Company to the Trustee no later than one Business
Day prior to the Redemption Date. The 9 1/4% Securities will not have the
benefit of a sinking fund.
6. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.
---------------------------------
The 9 1/4% Securities are in registered form, without coupons, in
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register
the transfer of, or exchange 9 1/4% Securities in accordance with, the
Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees
required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register
the transfer of or exchange any 9 1/4% Securities (a) selected for redemption
except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part or (b) for
a period beginning 15 Business Days before the mailing of a notice of an offer
to repurchase or redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of
such mailing.
7. Persons Deemed Owners.
---------------------
The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it
for all purposes.
8. Unclaimed Money.
---------------
If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed
for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent(s) will pay the money back to
the Company at its written request. After that, all liability of the Trustee
and such Paying Agent(s) with respect to such money shall cease.
9. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity.
-----------------------------------------
Except as set forth in the Indenture, if the Company irrevocably
deposits with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, U.S. legal
tender, U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof, in such amounts as
will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of
independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on such 9 1/4% Securities on the stated date for payment thereof or on
the redemption date of such principal or installment of principal of, premium,
if any, or interest on such 9 1/4% Securities, the Company will be discharged
from certain provisions of the Indenture and the 9 1/4% Securities (including
the restrictive covenants described in paragraph 11 below, but excluding its
obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 9 1/4%
Securities). Upon satisfaction of certain additional conditions set forth in
A-7
the Indenture, the Company may elect to have its obligations and the obligations
of the Subsidiary Guarantors discharged with respect to outstanding 9 1/4%
Securities.
10. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.
-----------------------------
The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee may enter into a
supplemental indenture for certain limited purposes without the consent of the
Holders. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the 9 1/4% Securities
may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of not
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 9 1/4% Securities then
outstanding (except that any amendments or supplements to the provisions
relating to security interests or with respect to the Guarantees of the
Subsidiary Guarantors shall require the consent of the holders of not less than
66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the 9 1/4% Securities then
outstanding), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with
any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the 9 1/4% Securities then outstanding. Without
notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may under certain
circumstances amend or supplement the Indenture or the 9 1/4% Securities to,
among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, or make any
other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a
Security.
11. Restrictive Covenants.
---------------------
The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and any of their respective Restricted
Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Indebtedness and issue
Disqualified Stock, pay dividends or make certain other Restricted Payments,
enter into certain transactions with Affiliates, incur Liens, sell assets and
subsidiary stock, merge or consolidate with any other Person or transfer (by
lease, assignment or otherwise) substantially all of the properties and assets
of the Company. The limitations are subject to a number of important
qualifications and exceptions and certain restrictive covenants will cease to be
applicable under certain circumstances. The Company must periodically report to
the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.
12. Repurchase at Option of Holder.
------------------------------
(a) If there is a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company
shall be required to offer irrevocably to purchase on the Change of Control
Purchase Date all outstanding 9 1/4% Securities at a purchase price equal to
101% of the principal amount thereof, plus (subject to the right of Holders of
record on a Record Date that is on or prior to such Change of Control Purchase
Date to receive interest due on the Interest Payment Date to which such Record
Date relates) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Change of Control
Purchase Date. Holders of 9 1/4% Securities will receive a Change of Control
Offer from the Company prior to any related Change of Control Purchase Date and
may elect to have such 9 1/4% Securities purchased by completing the form
entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" appearing below.
A-8
(b) The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the
Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any of their respective Restricted
Subsidiaries to sell assets and subsidiary stock. In the event the Net Cash
Proceeds from a permitted Asset Sale exceed certain amounts, as specified in the
Indenture, the Company will be required either to reinvest the proceeds of such
Asset Sale in a Related Business or other permitted investments, repay certain
Indebtedness or to make an offer to purchase each Holder's 9 1/4% Securities at
100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, to the
purchase date. The limitations and the Company's obligations with respect to the
use of proceeds from an Asset Sale are subject to a number of important
qualifications and exceptions and will cease to be applicable under certain
circumstances.
13. Notation of Guarantee.
---------------------
As set forth more fully in the Indenture, the Persons constituting
Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of
the Indenture, irrevocably and unconditionally and jointly and severally
guarantee, in accordance with Section 12.1 of the Indenture, to the Holders and
to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, that (i) the principal of and
interest on the 9 1/4% Securities will be paid, whether at the Stated Maturity
or Interest Payment Dates, by acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise,
and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee under the
Indenture or this Security will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in
accordance with the terms of the Indenture and this Security, and (ii) in the
case of any extension of payment or renewal of this Security or any of such
other obligations, they will be paid in full when due or performed in accordance
with the terms of such extension or renewal, whether at the Stated Maturity, as
so extended, by acceleration or otherwise. Such Guarantees shall cease to apply,
and shall be null and void, with respect to any such guarantor who, pursuant to
Article 12 of the Indenture, is released from its Guarantees, or whose
Guarantees otherwise cease to be applicable pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture.
14. Successor
---------
When a successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under
the 9 1/4% Securities and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from
those obligations.
15. Defaults and Remedies.
---------------------
If an Event of Default with respect to the 9 1/4% Securities occurs and is
continuing (other than an Event of Default relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of the Company), then either the Trustee or the Holders of 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the 9 1/4% Securities then outstanding may declare
all 9 1/4% Securities to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture. Holders of 9 1/4% Securities may not
enforce the Indenture
A-9
or the 9 1/4% Securities, except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may
require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the
9 1/4% Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then outstanding 9 1/4% Securities may direct the
Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to such 9 1/4%
Securities. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of 9 1/4% Securities notice of
any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default in payment of
principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their
interest.
16. Trustee and Agent Dealings with Company.
---------------------------------------
The Trustee and each Agent under the Indenture, in its individual or
any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform
services for the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any of their
Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with
such Persons as if it were not the Trustee or such agent.
17. No Recourse Against Others.
--------------------------
No recourse for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the 9 1/4% Securities or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in
respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or
agreement of the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors in the Indenture, or in
the 9 1/4% Securities or because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented
thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, partner, stockholder, officer,
director, employee or controlling Person of the Company or the Subsidiary
Guarantors or of any successor Person thereof, except as an obligor or guarantor
of the 9 1/4% Securities pursuant to the Indenture. Each Holder, by accepting
the 9 1/4% Securities, waives and releases all such liability.
18. Authentication.
--------------
This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee or authenticating
agent signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this
Security.
19. Abbreviations and Defined Terms.
-------------------------------
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a
Security or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (=
tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship
and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts
to Minors Act).
20. CUSIP Numbers.

A-10
Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
Security Identification Procedures, the Company will cause CUSIP numbers to be
printed on the 9 1/4% Securities as a convenience to the Holders of the 9 1/4%
Securities. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as

identification numbers printed hereon.
