Manager shall have the sole and exclusive right and obligation to manage and operate the Hotel pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and Manager agrees that it shall manage and operate the Hotel as a first-class hotel comparable to Other Managed Hotels in accordance with the standards for the brand applicable to the Hotel (or other comparable brands), taking into account the size, location and character of the Project.

In connection therewith, Manager shall have the authority and responsibility, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to (i) determine operating policy, standards of operation, quality of service, the maintenance and physical appearance of the Hotel and any other matters affecting operations and management; (ii) supervise and direct all phases of advertising, sales and business promotion for the Hotel; and (iii) carry out all programs contemplated by the Operating Budgets and, as directed by Owner, the Capital Renewals Budgets, which have been approved by Owner pursuant to Section 4.02.

Upon any such assignment, references herein to “Manager” shall be deemed to refer to Sub-Manager except to the extent that such a reference does not make sense (the parties’ intent being that although the Manager will remain ultimately responsible hereunder, Sub-Manager will undertake as many of Manager’s obligations and responsibilities as is feasible; Manager shall be the final arbiter of whether a particular reference to Manager does not include Sub-Manager).

4.02 Operating Budgets and Capital Renewals Budgets.

4.02.1 Preparation. Manager will submit to Owner not less than forty-five (45) days in advance of each Operating Year, the following budgets relating to the Hotel for such Operating Year:

(a) an Operating Budget composed of an estimate of profit and loss by month, an estimated cash flow projection by month, and departmental forecasts of operations (hereinafter collectively called the "Operating Budgets"); and

(b) a budget covering estimated Capital Renewals, which indicates in reasonable detail the replacements of, or additions to, FF&E, and the nature of the special projects covered thereby (herein called the "Capital Renewals Budget(s)").

Budgets for Major Capital Improvements initiated under Section 12.08 shall be treated separately and shall not be included in the Capital Renewals Budget.

4.02.2 Review. In connection with the submission of the Operating Budgets and the Capital Renewals Budgets, the representatives of Manager will meet with Owner to have an in-depth discussion thereof, including a comparison with the previous year's performance of the Hotel, a discussion of marketing strategy, identity of markets and the proposed expenditures contained in the Capital Renewals Budget.

4.02.3 Approval of Budgets. The Operating Budgets and the Capital Renewals Budget shall be subject to the approval of Owner, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, it being contemplated that each such Operating Budgets and Capital Renewals Budget shall be agreed upon by the parties within thirty (30) days after the submission of the same by Manager to Owner. If Owner shall fail to approve any Operating Budgets or Capital Renewals

Budget within thirty (30) days after its submittal by Manager, or to submit its written objections thereof to Manager within such period, in case of a dispute with regard to any Operating Budgets, then pending the settlement thereof, or until such dispute is resolved in accordance with Section 12.04, Manager shall be entitled to continue to operate the Hotel in accordance with the standards set forth herein and shall be entitled to make expenditures which are consistent with the Operating Budget for the immediately preceding Operating Year; provided that, subject to the standards of performance described in Subsection 4.02.4 below, the maximum approved amount of such expenditures shall be equal to (a) the aggregate of all items set forth in the Operating Budget which are not disputed by Owner, plus (b) with respect to all items in the Operating Budget which are disputed or objected to by Owner, the amount allocated to such item(s) in the Operating Budget for the immediately preceding Operating Year increased by the greater of (i) five percent (5%), or (ii) the difference between the Consumer Price Index (All Cities - All Items) (1982-84 = 100) (the "CPI"), on January 1 of the Operating Year immediately preceding the Operating Year in question and the CPI on January 1 of the Operating Year in question.

4.02.4 Performance Under Operating Budget. Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve the results set forth in the Operating Budget with respect to any Operating Year; provided, however, that Owner acknowledges that the Operating Budget is a composition of estimates and, therefore, Manager cannot guarantee or warrant that the actual operation of the Hotel for any Operating Year will be as set forth in the Operating Budget for such Operating Year.

4.02.5 Intentionally Deleted.

4.02.6 Compliance with Capital Renewals Budget. Manager shall at all times comply with the applicable Capital Renewals Budget as directed by Owner, and shall not deviate in any substantial respect therefrom without the prior written consent of the Owner.

The parties agree and acknowledge that Manager may (but shall not be required to) provide benefits and allow participation in such plans on whatever modified basis as it may determine appropriate under the circumstances, and may waive any waiting period or any preconditions to coverage or participation otherwise applicable to such employees. No statement, promise, representation or warranty regarding the terms of such plans or the participation or coverage of employees shall be enforceable, binding or effective in any way unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Manager.

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION; EMINENT DOMAIN

10.01 Damage or Destruction. If the Hotel shall be substantially damaged by fire or other casualty, or in the event that Mortgagee does not make sufficient proceeds of insurance available to Owner or Property Owner to permit Owner or Property Owner to rebuild and restore the Premises to a condition which permits the continued operation of the Hotel by Manager as contemplated by this Agreement, then Owner or Manager, by written notice to the other party given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such event, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on the basis that Owner or Property Owner does not elect to rebuild or restore the Hotel, and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder, except with respect to liability accruing, or based upon events occurring, prior to the effective date of such termination.

10.02 Eminent Domain. If all of the Premises, or such substantial portion thereof as to make it infeasible, in the reasonable opinion of Owner or Manager, to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion for the purposes contemplated hereby, shall be taken through the exercise, or by agreement in lieu of the exercise, of the power of eminent domain, then effective upon the date that Owner shall be required to surrender possession of the Premises, or a portion thereof, either party may terminate this Agreement and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder, except with respect to liabilities accruing, or based upon events occurring, prior to the effective date of such termination. In the event a substantial portion of the Premises is taken, but Mortgagee fails or refuses to make available to Owner or Property Owner sufficient proceeds of such eminent domain proceedings in order to permit Owner or Property Owner to make appropriate alterations, restorations or repairs to the remainder of the Premises, so that the Hotel would continue to be operable for the purposes herein contemplated, then Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Manager and, upon the date that Owner shall be required to surrender possession of the Premises to the condemning authority, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder, except with respect to liabilities accruing, or based upon events occurring, prior to the effective date of such termination. Any election to terminate this Agreement must be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of actual written notice from the condemning authority setting out the details of the proposed taking. If such notice does not provide the parties with sufficient detail so that a decision may be made regarding termination, the parties may mutually agree to extend the above time period in their discretion. In the event this Agreement is not terminated due to eminent domain in this Section 10.02, then Owner or Property Owner shall proceed with all due diligence to repair any damage to the Hotel, or to alter or modify the Hotel so as to render it a complete architectural unit which can be operated as a hotel of substantially the same type and class as before, but only to the extent of condemnation

proceeds available to Owner or Property Owner. Owner and/or Property Owner or any Affiliate of either shall be solely entitled to any award, subject only to any exceptions set out below. Manager may seek an award from the condemning authority for its loss of business interest only, if such separate claim is permitted. In the event the condemning authority does award Manager for such loss, Manager shall only be entitled to retain that portion of its condemnation award which is necessary to compensate Manager for its lost management fees for the remainder of the Term. Manager shall promptly remit any additional amount to Owner or Property Owner. In the event any jurisdiction would permit both Manager and Owner and/or Property Owner to seek an award for their loss of business interests (respectively), this section shall not prohibit Owner and/or Property Owner from making a separate claim therefor.

To that end, during the Term of this Agreement, the Manager:

11.01.6 This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by and on behalf of Manager, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by and on behalf of Owner, constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Manager

enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors in general.

11.01.7 Neither the execution and delivery hereof, nor the taking of any actions contemplated hereby, will conflict with or result in a breach of any of the provisions of, or constitute a default, event of default or event creating a right of acceleration, termination or cancellation of any obligation under, any instrument, note, mortgage, contract, judgment, order, award, decree or other agreement or restriction to which Manager is a party or by which Manager is otherwise bound.

11.01.8 Termination for Failure of Representations. In the event that the foregoing representations become false, Owner shall have the rights afforded by Section 8.01 herein, and Manager shall have the benefit of any cure period offered therein.

Manager (as the case may be) may receive and retain a fee or other compensation from vendors and service providers for their services in making the benefit of volume purchases available to the Hotel or negotiating and implementing the arrangements with such vendors or providers, provided that Manager shall refund to Owner on an annual basis the Hotel’s reasonably allocable share of any such fee or other compensation charged or retained by Manager or its affiliates.

12.02 Budgets. In preparing all budgets and Operating Budgets to be submitted to Owner hereunder, including, without limitation, the Capital Renewals Budgets under Section 4.02, Manager shall base its estimates upon the most recent and reliable information then available, taking into account the location of the Hotel and its experience in other comparable hotels. Manager reserves the right, and shall have the obligation, to update and revise any such budgets and Operating Budgets from time to time during the periods covered thereby to reflect variables and events not reasonably within the control of Manager. All such updates and revisions of the Capital Renewals Budget and the Operating Budgets (to the extent any such changes in the Operating Budgets indicate shortfalls which would necessitate a need for additional working capital to be provided by Owner) shall be submitted, together with reasonable explanations of the reasons for such charges, to Owner for its approval. Owner agrees that it shall promptly reply to any such submissions giving its approval or stating the grounds on which it is withholding its approval.

12.03 Indemnities.

12.03.1 Indemnification to Manager. Owner shall indemnify and hold Manager harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, penalties, losses, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, based upon or arising out of Manager's performance of its services hereunder, or out of any occurrence or event happening in or about the Hotel or occurring in connection with the operation or development thereof, including any alleged breach, or investigation relating to a possible breach, of any Legal Requirement (collectively "Claims"), except to the extent such Claims are based upon Manager's gross negligence, willful misconduct, breach of contract or failure to act in good faith, and except to the extent such Claims are based upon Manager’s employment practices.

12.03.2 Indemnification To Owner. Manager shall indemnify and hold Owner harmless from and against any and all Claims which Owner may suffer, sustain or incur arising from, or based upon Manager's gross negligence, willful misconduct, breach of contract or failure to act in good faith, and to the extent such Claims are based upon Manager’s employment practices.

12.03.3 Intentionally Deleted.

12.03.4 Indemnified Parties. The indemnities contained in this Section 12.03 shall run to the benefit of both Manager and Owner and their respective Affiliates and the directors, partners, members, managers, officers and employees of Manager and Owner and their respective Affiliates.

12.03.5 Intentionally Deleted.

12.03.6 Survival. The provisions of Section 12.03 shall survive any cancellation, termination or expiration of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the applicable statute of limitation shall cut off all demands, claims, actions, damages, losses, liabilities or expenses which are the subject of the provisions of this Section 12.03.

12.04 Arbitration of Financial Matters.

12.04.01 Matters to be Submitted to Arbitration. In the case of a dispute with respect to any of the following matters, either party may submit such matter to arbitration which shall be conducted by the Accountants (as hereinafter defined in Subsection 12.04.2):

(a) computation of the Base Management Fee;

(b) reimbursements due to Manager under the provisions of Section 4.07;

(d) any dispute concerning the approval of a Operating Budgets or a Capital Budget.

12.04.2 The Accountants. The "Accountants" shall be one of the "Big Four" firms of certified public accountants of recognized national standing, i.e., PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, KPMG Peat Marwick, and Deloitte and Touche (or the successors thereto) notwithstanding any existing relationships which may exist between Owner and such accounting firms or Manager and such accounting firms. The party desiring to submit any matter to arbitration under Subsection 12.04.1 shall do so by written notice to the other party, which notice shall set forth the items to be arbitrated and such party's choice of one of the four (4) accounting firms. The party receiving such notice shall within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice either approve such choice, or designate one of the remaining firms by written notice back to the first party, and the first party shall within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice either approve such choice or disapprove the same, and the same procedure shall be followed until the parties approve one of such firms or there is only one remaining firm not designated by either party. If both parties shall have approved one of the firms under the preceding sentence, then such firm shall be the "Accountants" for the purposes of arbitrating the dispute; if the parties are unable to agree on an accounting firm, then the remaining firm, which was not designated by either party, shall be the "Accountants" for such purpose. The Accountants shall be required to render a decision in accordance with the procedures described in Subsection 12.04.3 within fifteen (15) days after being notified of their selection. The fees and expenses of the Accountants will be paid by the non-prevailing party.

12.04.3 Procedures. In all arbitration proceedings submitted to the Accountants, the Accountants shall be required to agree upon and approve the substantive position advocated by Owner or Manager with respect to each disputed item. Any decision rendered by the

Accountants that does not reflect the position advocated by Owner or Manager shall be beyond the scope of authority granted to the Accountants and, consequently, may be overturned by either party. All proceedings by the Accountants shall be conducted in accordance with the Uniform Arbitration Act, except to the extent the provisions of such act are modified by this Agreement or the mutual agreement of the parties. Unless otherwise agreed, all arbitration proceedings shall be conducted at the Hotel.

12.05 Attorneys' Fees. In the event of any litigation arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable costs and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

12.06 Intentionally Omitted.

12.07 No Restriction. Owner agrees that Manager has and shall retain the right to own, have an ownership interest in, develop, operate, manage, license, franchise, sell or rent other hotels or inns of any kind, or shared ownership projects commonly known as vacation ownership or time-share ownership projects (or similar real estate projects), under the "Manager" or other name and wherever located except on the Land under this Agreement, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit or limit Manager from engaging in any such activities, which shall not give rise to any liability for claims relating to unfair competition and/or breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

12.08 Major Capital Improvements.

12.08.1 Major Capital Improvements. Any program of capital improvements, involving an addition to the Hotel, or designed to substantially upgrade or change the nature or image of the Hotel (as opposed to a renovation or refurbishing which takes place as part of the normal or cyclical upkeep of the Hotel), shall be deemed to be a "Major Capital Improvement." Major Capital Improvements will be undertaken only at the request of Owner, whether on its own initiative or at the suggestion of Manager, and in any event shall not be included in the Capital Renewals Budgets.

12.08.2 Development. The development of any Major Capital Improvement shall be the responsibility of Owner and shall be paid for out of separate funds of Owner.

12.08.3 Prohibition on Casinos. In no event shall a casino be added to the Premises or built as a separate structure on any portion of the Land; nor shall any casino or gaming operations be conducted on the Premises.

12.09 Force Majeure. If act of God, acts of war, acts of terrorism, civil disturbance, labor strikes, governmental action, including the revocation of any material license or permit necessary for the operation contemplated in this Agreement where such revocation is not due to Manager's fault, or any other causes beyond the control of Manager shall, in Manager's reasonable opinion, have a significant adverse effect upon the operations of the Hotel, then Manager shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days' written notice from the date of such event; provided, however, such termination shall not be effective if the event giving rise to the

termination has been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of Manager within such sixty (60) day period.

12.10 Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications (herein collectively called "Notices") required or permitted to be given hereunder, or which are to be given with respect to this Agreement, shall be in writing sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to the party to be so notified as follows:

The Preliminary Statements set forth at the outset of this Agreement are hereby incorporated in the Agreement.

12.16 Survival of Covenants. Any covenant, term or provision of this Agreement which, in order to be effective, must survive the termination of this Agreement, shall survive any such termination.

12.17 Third Parties. Except as provided in Section 4.01 and Section 12.22 hereof, none of the obligations hereunder of either party shall run to or be enforceable by any party other than the party to this Agreement or by a party deriving rights hereunder as a result of an assignment permitted pursuant to the terms hereof.

12.18 Waivers. No failure by Manager or Owner to insist upon the strict performances of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement, or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon the breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any subsequent breach of such covenant, agreement, term or condition. No covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement and no breach thereof shall be waived, altered or modified except by written instrument. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, but each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach thereof.

12.19 Partial Invalidity. Any provision of this Agreement prohibited by law or by court decree in any locality or state shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition without in any way invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, or without invalidating or affecting the provisions of this Agreement within the states or localities where not prohibited or otherwise invalidated by law or by court decree. Further, in the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held unenforceable by virtue of its scope, but may be made enforceable by a limitation thereof, such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the minimum extent necessary to render it enforceable under the laws of the jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

12.20 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located.

12.21 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.22 Subordination. This Agreement shall be subordinate to any mortgage encumbering the Hotel, and Manager agrees to enter into a lender-manager agreement with respect to the Hotel, which agreement shall contain reasonable lender-manager provisions, including, without limitation, Manager's acknowledgement that its real estate interest in and to the Hotel, if any, created by this Agreement is subordinate to any mortgage encumbering such Hotel, including providing any purchaser of such Hotel at a foreclosure sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure (including the lender) with the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Hotel; provided, however, in no event will Manager agree to subordinate or waive its right to receive fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments under this Agreement arising prior to termination (but (a) if this Agreement is terminated by the lender or such purchaser with respect to such Hotel, Manager shall not look to the lender for payment of such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments and Manager's right to receive such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments shall be subordinated to the lender's rights and (b) if this Agreement is not terminated by the lender or such purchaser with respect to such Hotel, then such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments shall be payable by the lender or such purchaser).

C.	Except in extraordinary circumstances, such as theft or fraud on the part of the Manager or default by Owner under the License Agreement caused by the Manager for which the Owner needs to promptly remove the Manager from the Hotel, this Agreement shall not be terminated by Owner without at least ten (10) days' prior written notice to Franchisor or to any other applicable franchisor;


D.	If there are conflicts between any provision(s) of this Agreement and the License Agreement, the provision(s) of the License Agreement shall govern and control; and

F.	Manager agrees to accept, abide by and be subject to all rules, regulations, inspections and requirements of Franchisor.


G.	If the License Agreement shall terminate, Manager shall cease operating the Hotel under the applicable brand.


H.	Notwithstanding the consent of Franchisor to this Agreement, Owner and all guarantors, if any, shall remain liable to Franchisor under the terms of the License Agreement.


I.	Intentionally Deleted

Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner which would either (i) relieve Owner of any of its obligations under the License Agreement or (ii) prevent Owner from validly contesting provisions of the License Agreement.

12.24 Closing Contingency. This Agreement will only become effective with respect to each Hotel upon the later to occur of (1) the approval of this Agreement by the holder of the Mortgage (or its servicer or other agent) as required under the terms of the Mortgage; and (2) the successful closing of the purchase and sale of such Hotel by Property Owner, which such later occurring date (the “Commencement Date”) will be documented in a writing from Owner to Manager at least 30 days in advance.

12.25 Confidentiality.

Owner and Manager agree that the terms, conditions, and provisions set forth in this Agreement are strictly confidential. Further, the parties agree to keep strictly confidential any information of a proprietary or confidential nature about or belonging to the other party, or to

any Affiliate of such other party, to which such party gains or has access by virtue of the relationship between the parties. Except as disclosure may be required to obtain financing for the Hotel, or as may be required by law or by the order of any government, regulatory authority, or tribunal or otherwise to comply with Legal Requirements (including, as necessary, to obtain licenses, permits, and other public approvals required for the operation of the Hotel), each party shall make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the information described in this Section 12.25 is not disclosed to any outside person or entities (including any announcements to the press) without the prior approval of the other party. It is understood and agreed that this Section 12.25 is not intended to prohibit or limit disclosure of the matters set forth in this Section 12.25 by Owner or Manager (i) to their respective officers, directors, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, potential lenders, consultants, and representatives on a need-to-know basis, or (ii) as required by any governmental agency or any federal or state law or regulation, or (iii) as required pursuant to the rules of any exchange or securities system on which such party’s (or any of its Affiliates’) shares are traded, or (iv) to the extent legally compelled by legal process. The obligations of this Section 12.25 shall survive any termination of this Agreement for one (1) year following such termination and shall thereafter terminate.

12.26 Environmental Matters.

A. For purposes of this Section 12.26, “hazardous materials” means any substance or material containing one or more of any of the following: “hazardous material,” “hazardous waste,” “hazardous substance,” “regulated substance,” “petroleum,” “pollutant,” “contaminant,” or “asbestos,” as such terms are defined in any applicable environmental law, in such concentration(s) or amount(s) as may impose clean-up, removal, monitoring, or other responsibility under any applicable environmental law, or which may present a significant risk of harm to guests, invitees, or employees of the Hotel.

B. Regardless of whether or not a given hazardous material is permitted on the Hotel premises under applicable environmental law, Manager shall only bring on the premises such hazardous materials as are needed in the normal course of business of the Hotel. Manager shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Owner and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents) from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including, without limitation, engineers’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation) arising from the placing, discharge, leakage, use, or storage of hazardous materials in violation of applicable environmental laws on the Hotel premises or in the Hotel by Manager during the Term of this Agreement.

C. In the event of the discovery of hazardous materials (as such term may be defined in any applicable environmental law) on the Hotel premises or in the Hotel during the Term of this Agreement, Owner shall (except to the extent such removal is Manager’s responsibility pursuant to Section 12.26 B) promptly remove, if required by applicable environmental law, such hazardous materials, together with all contaminated soil and containers, and shall otherwise remedy the problem in accordance with all environmental laws. Owner shall (except to the extent that the removal of such hazardous materials is Manager’s responsibility pursuant to Section 12.26 B) indemnify, defend, and hold

harmless Manager and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents) from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including, without limitation, engineers’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation) arising from the presence of hazardous materials on the Hotel premises or in the Hotel. All costs and expenses of the removal of hazardous materials pursuant to this Section 12.26 C, and of compliance with all environmental laws, and any amounts paid to Manager pursuant to the indemnity set forth above, shall be paid by Owner from its own funds, not as a Hotel operating expense.

12.27 Equity and Debt Offerings.

Neither Owner nor Manager (as an “issuing party”) shall make reference to the other party (the “non-issuing party”) or any of its Affiliates in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering, offering circular, or offering documentation related thereto (collectively referred to as the “Prospectus”), issued by the issuing party, unless the non-issuing party has received a copy of all such references. In no event will the non-issuing party be deemed a participant or sponsor of the offering described in any such Prospectus, nor will it have any responsibility for the issuing party’s obligations in connection with such offering or for the Prospectus, and the Prospectus shall affirmatively so state. The issuing party shall not include any proprietary xxxx or proprietary materials of the non-issuing party and shall not include a summary of this Agreement without prior written consent of the non-issuing party. The Prospectus shall further disclose that the non-issuing party has made no representations, warranties, or guarantees whatsoever with respect to any of contents of or the materials contained in the Prospectus or the Prospectus itself. The issuing party shall only make use of any forecasts, annual plans or projections prepared in the issuing party’s name (or the names of any of the issuing party’s Affiliates). The issuing party shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the non-issuing party and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents) from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation) arising out of any Prospectus or the offering described therein. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Property Owner, its Affiliates, AR Capital, LLC, Realty Capital Securities, LLC, or any lender making a loan secured by the Hotel (individually and collectively, a “Disclosing Party”) may reference Manager and/or Sub-Manager as the manager of the Hotel in any Prospectus, provided such Disclosing Party shall not disclose anything other than the name of the Manager and/or Sub-Manager (without the use of any proprietary marks or materials) without the prior written consent of Manager (not to be unreasonably withheld).

MANAGEMENT FEE RIDER

A Gross Operating Revenues. The term Gross Operating Revenues as used in this Agreement shall mean all receipts, revenues, income and proceeds of sales of every kind received by Manager directly or indirectly from the operation of the Hotel. Gross Operating Revenues shall exclude all sales and excise taxes and any similar taxes collected as direct taxes payable to taxing authorities; gratuities or service charges collected for payment to and paid to employees; credit or refunds to guests; proceeds of insurance, save and except for proceeds of insurance with respect to use and occupancy or business interruption insurance; proceeds of sales of real estate and/or furniture, fixtures and equipment; proceeds of refinancings; and proceeds of condemnation.

B. RevPar Share Index. The term "RevPar Share Index" as used in this Agreement shall mean the Competitive Set RevPar Index as reported by Xxxxx Travel Research. The Competitive Set included in the STR reports shall be the Competitive Set in existence at the time this Agreement is executed and shall be attached hereto as Exhibit "A" to Management Fee Rider and may not be changed except by the mutual agreement of the Owner and the Manager.

C. Base Management Fee. During each Calendar Year after the Commencement Date (and for a fraction of any partial Calendar Year), in consideration of the services Manager is to render under this Agreement, Manager will be paid a fee (“Base Management Fee”) at the rate of Four Percent (4%) of Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel per Calendar Year; provided, however, that twenty-five percent (25%) of the Base Management Fee (i.e., an amount equal to one percent (1%) of Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel per Calendar Year (such amount, the “Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee”)) shall be payable only to the extent that (1) there is no “Triggering Period” that has occurred and is then continuing; and (2) there is sufficient Available Cash to pay such amount (which such amount will then be paid out of such Available Cash and from no other source). For purposes of this Section C, the term “Triggering Period” shall have the meaning set forth in that certain Loan Agreement, dated as of [________], among [____] as Lender; and [______] as Borrower (including any assignment thereof, the “Loan Agreement”), and “Available Cash” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 6.11.1(xiii) of the Loan Agreement. To the extent that the Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee is not payable with respect to any given Calendar Year or portion thereof, the unpaid amount shall accrue and shall be payable in future Calendar Years, to the extent, during such future Calendar Year, that (1) there is no “Triggering Period” that has occurred and is then continuing; and (2) there is sufficient Available Cash to pay such accrued amount after paying the Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee with respect to such future Calendar Year. The Base Management Fee – excepting only the Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee – will be paid in installments by deducting such fee from Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel immediately following each Accounting Period at the rate of the corresponding percentage of Gross Operating Revenues for that Accounting Period. At the end of each Accounting Period, an adjustment will be made on a cumulative year-to-date basis, if necessary, and all sums due either the Manager or Owner shall be paid immediately. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and in any sub-management agreement, any management fee due to a Sub-Manager under a sub-management agreement shall be paid by Manager to Sub-Manager from the Base Management Fee or Incentive

Fee due to Manager under this agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee shall be due to Management Company pursuant to the terms set forth herein, such Subordinated Portion of the Base Management Fee shall accrue but shall not be payable to the Management Company until such time as (x) the Borrowers have reserved in the Future PIP Reserve Account (as defined in the Loan Agreement) a cash deposit in an amount equal to all outstanding Future PIP Reserve Funds (as defined in the Loan Agreement) guaranteed by that certain Payment Guaranty (PIP Reserve Funds), dated on or about [________], by [_________] [a Maryland corporation], for the benefit of Lender (the “Guaranteed PIP Funds”), or (y) Borrowers shall have completed all PIP Work and paid all Approved Future PIP Expenses in connection with the Guaranteed PIP Funds with the Future PIP Reserve Funds in accordance with the Loan Documents or as otherwise agreed to by Lender.

D. Accounting Fee. In addition to the Base Management Fee, the Manager shall be paid a fee for centralized accounting services (the "Accounting Fee") equal to the amount charged by Manager monthly for all Manager's managed hotels based on the type of hotel managed per Accounting Period during the Term of this Agreement and for one (1) Accounting Period after the applicable termination of this Agreement with respect to the Hotel. The Accounting Fee shall be set annually and is intended to be a break even fee for the accounting department. Such centralized accounting services consist of the processing of daily accounting transactions necessary for the preparation of the monthly financial statements, including general ledger, accounts payable, payroll (in conjunction with the payroll processing firm) and banking. In addition, the following expenses are included in the annual accounting fee:

a. express mail and regular postage for items sent specifically to or on behalf of the Hotel, which would include accounts payable checks, weekly invoices and accounting information to and from the Hotel, payroll checks, payroll reports and other documents necessary for the efficient operation of the Hotel;

b. telephone and fax costs specifically for the Hotel; and

c. costs of photocopying specifically for the Hotel.

However, Owner is responsible for all payroll processing firm fees associated with processing the hotel's payroll as well as any banking service charges for operating and maintaining the bank account or accounts for the hotel.

E. Revenue Management and E-Commerce Fee. In addition to the above fees, unless/until Owner elects (upon written notice) to stop participating, the Manager shall provide and shall be paid a fee for revenue management and e-commerce services (the “Revenue Management and E-Commerce Fee”) based on all of Manager’s actual costs associated with such services for all hotels served by Manager for which such services are provided, which shall be allocated to the Hotel based on the amount of revenues generated by the Hotel relative to the total revenues managed by Manager for which such services are provided. This fee will be paid in estimated monthly installments, subject to a true-up calculation and payment at year end. Such costs will be addressed in each Annual Budget.
