ARTICLE V

FRANCHISE AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

5.1 Franchise Agreements. Seller has entered into franchise agreements (each, a “Franchise Agreement” and, collectively, the “Franchise Agreements”) governing the use of the hotel brand or franchise under which each Hotel will operate (the “Brand”). At the Closing of each Hotel Seller shall assign its interest in the applicable Franchise Agreement to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume Seller’s obligations thereunder arising or required to be performed on and after the Closing Date, subject to the consent of the applicable franchisor to such assignment and assumption and subject to such amendments thereto as may be required or otherwise agreed to by Buyer (including, without limitation, such amendments as may be required to accommodate Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s affiliates’ REIT structure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at Buyer’s option, in lieu of Seller assigning to Buyer Seller’s interest in the Franchise Agreement, Buyer and the applicable franchisor may enter into a new franchise agreement for one or more of the Hotels, effective as of the Closing Date of the affected Hotel, replacing the existing Franchise Agreement and containing terms and conditions acceptable to Buyer. In such case, Seller and the franchisor shall terminate the existing Franchise Agreement as of the Closing Date, and Seller shall be solely responsible for all claims and liabilities arising thereunder, including all termination costs and fees. Buyer agrees to apply for and use reasonable efforts, and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer, to obtain each franchisor’s written consent prior to Closing on the applicable Hotel to the assignment to Buyer of each Franchise Agreement (or to a new franchise agreement, as the case may be), together with the assignment to Buyer of all waivers of any brand standard necessary or appropriate for the operation of each Hotel under the Brand. It shall be a condition to Closing on each Hotel Property for Buyer and Seller that the applicable franchisor provide the foregoing consent. Seller shall be responsible for paying all costs (other than Buyer’s attorney’s fees and extraordinary costs resulting from Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s affiliates’ REIT structure) related to the assignment and amendment of each Franchise Agreement (or to the termination of the Franchise Agreement and the execution of a new

franchise agreement), including but not limited to, the payment of license, application, transfer and similar fees thereunder, and Seller shall pay all costs and fees of its attorneys and consultants and all costs associated with any releases or other provisions requested by or for the benefit of Seller, in each case, incurred in connection with such assignment and/or termination and execution of new agreement.

(i) any claim made or asserted against Buyer or any of the Property by a creditor of Seller, including any claims based on or alleging a violation of any bulk sales act or other similar laws;

(ii) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Contract;

(iii) any liability or obligation of Seller not expressly assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Contract; and

(iv) any claim made or asserted by an employee of Seller arising out of Seller’s decision to sell any Hotel Property;

(v) the construction, ownership, use or operation of the Property prior to Closing.

(b) Indemnification of Seller. Without in any way limiting or diminishing the warranties, representations or agreements herein contained or the rights or remedies available to Seller for a breach hereof, Buyer hereby agrees, with respect to this Contract, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against all losses, judgments, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of every kind, nature and description in existence before, on or after each Closing, whether known or unknown, absolute or contingent, joint or several, arising out of or relating to:

(i) the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Contract;

(ii) the conduct and operation by Buyer of its business at each Hotel purchased by Buyer from and after Buyer or Buyer’s Manager assumes management of the Hotel from and after the Closing for such Hotel.

(iii) any obligation or liability of Buyer expressly assumed by Buyer at Closing for such Hotel.

(c) Indemnification Procedure for Claims of Third Parties. Indemnification, with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by those not parties to this Contract (including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

B. The party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the party or parties from which it is seeking indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim for indemnification based on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.12, which notice shall state the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation to indemnify unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay.

C. If in any action, suit or proceeding (a “Legal Action”) the relief sought is solely the payment of money damages, and if the Indemnifying Party specifically agrees in writing to indemnify such Indemnified Party with respect thereto and demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of such Indemnified Party its financial ability to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, commencing thirty (30) days after such notice, at its option, to elect to settle, compromise or defend, pursuant to this paragraph, by its own counsel and at its own expense, any such Legal Action involving such Indemnified Party’s asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to settle, compromise or defend any such Legal Action, such settlement, compromise or defense shall be conducted in the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, but such Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information concerning such settlement, compromise or defense as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request from time to time. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to settle, compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall notify such Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days of notice from such Indemnified Party provided above.

D. Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous subsection of this Contract, until the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Legal Action, the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. Furthermore, (x) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (y) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or (z) if a judgment against Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, in the Legal Action will, in the good faith

opinion of Buyer, establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interest of its continuing business, the Indemnifying Party, shall not be entitled to assume the defense of the Legal Action and the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. If the defense of the Legal Action is handled by the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this subsection, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in conducting such defense.

E. In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnified Party (w) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed as to the status of such Legal Action at all stages thereof, whether or not the Indemnified Party is represented by its own counsel, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party and its attorneys, accounts and other representatives, all books and records of Seller relating to such Legal Action and (z) the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Legal Action.

F. In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not make settlement of any claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be deemed unreasonable to withhold consent to a settlement involving injunctive or other equitable relief against Buyer or its respective assets, employees, affiliates or business, or relief which Buyer reasonably believes could establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interests of its continuing business.

8.13 Survival of Covenants. Unless waived or terminated as provided herein, all of the covenants and agreements made by Seller and Buyer in this Contract and in the Schedules and Exhibits hereto shall be continuing and shall survive Closing on the applicable Hotel Property, notwithstanding any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any party, and shall terminate with respect to each Hotel Property acquired by Buyer eighteen (18) months after Closing on such Hotel Property.

8.14 Escrow Funds. To provide for timely payment of any and all warranty, indemnity or other post-closing claims by Buyer against Seller or amounts owed by Seller to Buyer hereunder, at Closing of each Hotel, an amount equal to One Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000.00) (the “Escrow Funds”) shall be withheld from the Purchase Price payable to Seller and shall be deposited for a period of twelve (12) months after Closing of such Hotel in an escrow account with the Title Company pursuant to an escrow agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer and Seller (the “Post-Closing Agreement”), which escrow and Post-Closing Agreement shall be established and entered into at Closing and shall be a condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Contract.

Escrow Agent and any successor escrow agent, as the case may be, may resign his or its duties and be discharged from all obligations hereunder at any time upon giving five (5) days’ prior written notice to each of the Parties hereto. The Parties hereto will thereupon jointly designate a successor escrow agent hereunder within said five (5) day period to whom the Deposit shall be delivered. In default of such a joint designation of a successor escrow agent, Escrow Agent shall retain the Deposit as custodian thereof until otherwise directed by the Parties hereto, jointly, or until the Deposit is released in accordance with clause (B) below, in each case, without liability or responsibility.

Escrow Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any legal action in connection with this Agreement or its enforcement or to appear in, prosecute or defend any action or legal proceeding which, in the opinion of Escrow Agent, would or might involve Escrow Agent in any cost, expense, loss, damage or liability, unless and as often as requested, Escrow Agent shall be furnished with security and indemnity satisfactory to Escrow Agent against all such costs, expenses (including attorney’s fees), losses, damages and liabilities.
