(a) Fee simple title to the land described on Exhibit 1.1(a) attached hereto, together with all privileges, rights, easements and appurtenances belonging to such land, and all right, title and interest (if any) of Seller in and to any streets, alleys, passages, and other rights-of-way or appurtenances included in, adjacent to or used in connection with such land and all right, title and interest (if any) of Seller in all mineral and development rights appurtenant to such land (the “Fee Estate”).

(b) The buildings located on the Fee Estate, including specifically the hotel commonly known as The Xxxx-Xxxxxxx, Laguna Niguel (the “Hotel”) and all other structures and other improvements situated upon the Fee Estate and all fixtures, systems and facilities located on the Fee Estate (collectively, the “Improvements”). Seller is not making any representations relating to, and specifically disclaims any rights in, “The Ritz Carlton” name and any related marks.

(c) All furniture, equipment, machinery, inventories, supplies, signs and other tangible personal property of every kind and nature, if any, owned by Seller and installed or located at the Real Property, including, without limitation, the tangible personal property listed on Exhibit 1.1(c) attached hereto (collectively, the “Personal Property”).

(d) All of Seller’s rights, if any, in all leases, rights to subleases, licenses, concession agreements or other agreements granting the right to use or occupy any portion of the Real Property, including, without limitation, those listed on Exhibit 1.1(d) attached hereto (together with all amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions and related agreements, if any, thereto, collectively, the “Leases”) as well as all of Seller’s rights, if any, to any existing security deposits and other tenant deposits, lease guarantees or (to the extent assignable) letters of credit related to the Leases, including, without limitation, those listed on Exhibit 1.1(d) attached hereto (collectively, the “Tenant Deposits”).

(e) All of Seller’s right, title and interest, if any, in (i) all warranties, guaranties and indemnities by and claims against third parties relating to the Property, if any, to the extent assignable or transferable, (ii) all licenses, permits, approvals,

(f) All of Seller’s rights, if any, in all maintenance, repair, utility, service, supply and equipment rental contracts affecting the Property (collectively, the “Property Contracts”) including, without limitation, the Management Agreement and those Property Contracts listed on Exhibit 1.1(f) attached hereto, to the extent Seller is entitled to transfer the same to Purchaser.

(g) Seller’s rights, if any, in any and all books, records, files, guest registers, rental and reservation records, employment records, maintenance records, and any customer or frequent guest list of the Hotel maintained by Seller (including any e-mail or other electronic data) used in connection with the ownership use, operation, or maintenance of the Hotel (collectively, the “Hotel Books and Records”).

(h) The advance reservations and Bookings for the Hotel, as the same may be amended, canceled and renewed (the “Reservations”) and, except to the extent a proration credit is received by Purchaser, advance deposits made in respect thereof (the “Reservation Deposits”).

The Fee Estate, together with the Improvements relating thereto, is referred to herein as the “Real Property”. The Real Property, together with the Personal Property, the Leases, the Tenant Deposits, the Intangible Property, the Property Contracts, the Hotel Books and Records, the Reservations and the Reservation Deposits relating thereto, are referred to herein as the “Property”.

In such event, Seller will consider in good faith the possibility of effectuating a Transfer of Interests in lieu of the Seller transferring the Property as contemplated hereby, provided, however, that (i) it shall not, in any event, be a condition to Closing that a Transfer of Interests be consummated in lieu of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) if the transactions contemplated hereby are reconstituted as a Transfer of Interests, then, in lieu of the conveyance documents currently contemplated by Section 8.2, the parties shall instead exchange at Closing an assignment of membership interests (in customary form, as agreed by Seller and Purchaser, each acting reasonably) pursuant to which all of the membership interests in Seller shall be conveyed to Purchaser free and clear of any Liens.

-2-

1.2. Excluded Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the following are expressly excluded from the definition of Property under this Agreement: (a) all tangible and intangible personal property owned or leased by tenants, concessionaires, or licensees at the Property, guests at the Property, or employees of Seller, (b) all insurance policies relating to the Property, including, without limitation, general liability, operational liability (including hotel and innkeepers’ liability and liquor liability), business interruption, fire and casualty policies, and all proceeds and claims thereunder (collectively, the ”Insurance Policies”), (c) any asset management services provided for the benefit of Seller or the Property by any Affiliate of Seller or by SHC DTRS, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (d) any refunds of real estate taxes attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date, (e) the license agreements set forth on Exhibit 1.2(e) attached hereto and made a part hereof (the ”Excluded Licenses”), (f) “Xxxx-Xxxxxxx Rights” (as defined in the Management Agreement) or any other property owned by Xxxx-Xxxxxxx Hotel Company, L.L.C. or any of its Affiliates, (g) any employment records maintained by the Manager and (h) the Liquor License Assets.

2. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Property (the “Purchase Price”) is Three Hundred Thirty Million Dollars ($330,000,000), subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(a) The Purchase Price shall be paid by Purchaser as follows:

(i) On the first Business Day after the date on which this Agreement is signed and delivered to National Land Tenure Company, LLC (the “Escrow Agent”) by each party hereunder (the “Execution Date”), Purchaser shall deliver to the Escrow Agent Sixteen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($16,500,000) (together with any additional amounts paid by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, the “Deposit”) in immediately available funds by a wire transfer to an escrow account established pursuant to the terms of Article 13 hereof.

(ii) The Deposit shall be held by Escrow Agent in a segregated, interest-bearing account with XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx or another commercial bank reasonably approved by Seller and Purchaser (Seller and Purchaser hereby pre-approve North Fork Bank). In the event that the Closing does not occur by the Closing Date, interest on the Deposit shall be paid to the party entitled to receive the Deposit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Closing does occur, interest on the Deposit shall be paid to Seller and credited against the Purchase Price payable by Purchaser. Any taxes due on such interest income shall be the sole responsibility of (x) Purchaser if the Closing does occur and (y) the party receiving the interest income if the closing does not occur. Purchaser will provide to Escrow Agent a Form W-9 for the reporting of any such interest income.

(iii) At the Closing, Purchaser shall deposit with Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds (made in accordance with the wiring instructions set forth on Exhibit 2.1(a)(iii) attached hereto), the Balance of the Purchase Price. “Balance of the Purchase Price” means the amount equal to

-3-

the Purchase Price, as adjusted for the prorations and other costs, including sales tax, as provided for in this Agreement, minus the Deposit and any interest accrued thereon.

(iv) The Purchase Price shall be paid without any deduction for withholding tax, provided Seller delivers the documents listed in Sections 8.2(j) and 8.2(m).

(b) Allocation of Purchase Price.

(i) The allocation (the “Allocation”) of the consideration paid for the Property among the acquired assets for tax purposes shall be as provided as set forth on Exhibit 2.1(b)(i) attached hereto.

(ii) Seller, Purchaser and each of their Affiliates shall (x) be bound by the Allocation for all relevant tax purposes, (y) prepare and file all tax returns in a manner consistent with such allocation and (z) take no position inconsistent with such allocation in any tax return or any related proceeding before any taxing authority. In the event that the allocation reported to a taxing authority by either party or any of their Affiliates is disputed by such taxing authority, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify the other party and keep the other party apprised of material developments concerning resolution of such dispute.

(iii) Neither party hereto shall report this transaction as a sale of a trade or business under Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code requiring the filing of Internal Revenue Code Form 8594.

3. Title and Survey Matters.

3.1. Update of Title. Prior to the Execution Date, Seller has provided Purchaser with a copy of the existing survey from Xxxxx Surveying certified January 3, 2003 (the “Existing Survey”) of the Real Property and the existing title insurance policy issued by Lawyer’s Title Company 05309225, dated May 24, 2004 (the “Existing Title Policy”). Seller has, prior to the Execution Date, ordered and delivered to Purchaser a commitment for an owner’s policy of title insurance for the Property, including, without limitation, copies of all documents referenced in said commitment (the “Title Commitment”), in the amount of the Purchase Price, issued by Lawyer’s Title Insurance Corporation (in such capacity, the “Title Company”) 09502078-68, dated April 11, 2006. The cost of ordering the Title Commitment and obtaining a Title Policy (as herewith defined) or any endorsements thereto shall be allocated pursuant to Section 3.3 and Section 8.4.

3.2. Approval of Title and Survey.

(a) As used herein, the term “Permitted Exceptions” with regard to the Real Property means: (i) all exceptions, exclusions and other matters shown in the Existing Title Policy (but in no event any Seller Encumbrance) and any other exceptions to title disclosed by the survey obtained by Seller on behalf of Purchaser prior to the

-4-

Closing (the “Updated Survey”), provided such other exceptions do not in Purchaser’s reasonable judgment interfere with the use or operation of the Property; (ii) all exceptions, exclusions and other matters shown on Schedule B of the Title Commitment (but in no event any Seller Encumbrance); (iii) any exceptions, exclusions and other matters waived in writing by Purchaser or deemed waived by Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof; (iv) all title matters reflecting the existence or terms of the Leases listed on Exhibit 1.1(d) attached hereto; (v) liens for real estate taxes that are not yet due and payable and that are apportioned as provided in Section 8.4, including, without limitation, special assessments and special improvement district or local improvement district bonds; (vi) any and all present and future laws, ordinances, restrictions, requirements, resolutions, orders, rules and regulations of any governmental authority, as now or hereafter existing or enforced (including, without limitation, those related to zoning and land use), and all notes or notices of violation of any such laws, ordinances, rules or regulations set forth, shown in or disclosed by the departmental searches performed by the Title Company and delivered prior to the Execution Date or in the Title Commitment or in any title reports, commitments or updates delivered to Purchaser prior to the Execution Date; (vii) any judgment or mechanics’ or suppliers’ liens that are the obligation of a tenant to discharge (but in no event any Seller Encumbrance) pursuant to the provisions of the Lease applicable to such tenant; (viii) such other exceptions as Title Company shall commit to insure over in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, without any additional cost to Purchaser whether such insurance is made available in consideration of payment, bonding or indemnity by Seller or otherwise (provided that any such indemnity or other consideration shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser); (ix) any other matters affecting title to the Property that have been approved by Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof; and (x) all matters, whether or not of record, to the extent caused by Purchaser or its agents, representatives or contractors. As used herein, the term “Seller Encumbrance” shall mean (1) any mortgage or deed of trust or other monetary lien voluntarily granted or expressly assumed by Seller and encumbering the Property, including those in connection with the Existing Mortgage Loan or (2) any and all judgments or mechanics’ or suppliers’ liens encumbering the Property arising from work performed or materials furnished at the Property by or on behalf of Seller (but not any liens that are the obligation of a tenant to discharge). In any event, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller Encumbrances must be satisfied by Seller at its sole cost on or prior to the Closing Date (as the same may be extended as set forth below) or, if not so satisfied prior to or on Closing, shall be satisfied at Closing out of the proceeds otherwise payable to Seller.

(b) If title to the Real Property becomes encumbered by any matter (including, without limitation, an attachment or lis pendens or any other defect, objection or exception) other than a Permitted Exception, after the Execution Date, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remove and cure any such matter, except that (i) Seller shall in no event be required to bring suit or otherwise initiate any legal proceedings to clear any such encumbrance or exception and (ii) other than for Seller Encumbrances, Seller is required to expend not more than a total of Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) to cure all such encumbrances or exceptions, it being understood that the exceptions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above do not apply to Seller Encumbrances. If, despite such commercially reasonable efforts, Seller is unable remove

-5-

or cure (by bonding or otherwise) any defects, objections or exceptions to the reasonable satisfaction of the Title Company on or prior to the Closing Date (as the same may be extended as set forth below), then Purchaser shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Seller, of either (y) waiving any such defects, objections or exceptions and accepting title to the Property subject to such matter(s), in which event Purchaser shall proceed to Closing or (z) terminating this Agreement, in which event the Deposit will immediately be returned to Purchaser, and thereupon Purchaser and Seller will have no further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement, except as otherwise stated herein.

3.3. Title Insurance. It shall be a condition to Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Closing hereunder that Title Company shall have issued or shall have committed to issue, upon payment of the applicable premium therefore, an ALTA Standard Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance (the “Title Policy”) insuring that Purchaser owns fee simple title to the Real Property subject only to the Permitted Exceptions. Seller shall pay the premium for the CLTA standard coverage portion of the Title Policy, which Title Policy shall be in the amount equal to the Purchase Price for the Real Property. If Purchaser desires to procure extended coverage, or any special coverages or any endorsements (or amendments) to the Title Policy, it may do so at its own cost and expense, provided that (a) such additional coverages shall be at no cost or additional liability to Seller, (b) Purchaser’s obligations hereunder shall not be conditioned upon Purchaser’s ability to obtain such additional coverages, (c) if Purchaser is unable to obtain such additional coverages with respect to the Property, Purchaser shall nevertheless be obligated to proceed to the Closing without reduction of or set off against the Purchase Price, and (d) the Closing shall not be delayed as a result of Purchaser’s efforts to obtain such additional coverages.

4. Inspection; Covenants.

4.1. Access.

(a) Subject to the following sentence, following the Execution Date, Purchaser and its Affiliates, agents, contractors, or representatives shall have, and Seller shall provide, access to the Property for purposes of inspection, investigation and/or testing of the Property and review of such materials and information relating to the Property as Purchaser deems reasonably necessary or appropriate. If Purchaser desires access to the Property for purposes of inspection, investigation and/or testing, Purchaser shall provide Seller with reasonable prior notice thereof, which notice shall include the date and time of such proposed access, the scope of work to be completed during such access, and the anticipated commencement and completion dates for such work. Purchaser agrees (which agreement shall survive (i) termination of this Agreement or (ii) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing) to indemnify, defend, and hold Seller harmless from any loss, injury, damage, claim, lien, cost or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (collectively, ”Losses”), arising out of or in connection with the inspection and testing of the Property, or otherwise from the exercise or performance by Purchaser or its Affiliates, agents, contractors, or representatives of any of its rights or obligations under this Section 4.1. In no event shall Purchaser be liable hereunder for Losses arising

-6-

from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or its Affiliates, agents, contractors, representatives or employees or for any Losses resulting from Seller’s subsequent compliance with Environmental Requirements or its remedy of any environmental condition. Any inspection, investigation and/or testing shall be at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense and Purchaser shall not conduct any invasive testing or phase II environmental surveys without Seller’s prior written consent. Purchaser shall promptly restore at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense any physical damage to the Property caused by any such inspection, investigation and/or testing of the Property.

(b) Prior to any entry upon the Property by Purchaser’s agents, contractors, subcontractors or employees, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller proof satisfactory to Seller that Purchaser is carrying a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by a financially responsible insurance company acceptable to Seller, covering (i) the activities of Purchaser, Purchaser’s agents, contractors, subcontractors and employees on or upon the Property, and (ii) Purchaser’s indemnity obligation contained in Section 4.1. Such proof shall evidence that such insurance policy shall have a per occurrence limit of at least Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and an aggregate limit of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), shall name Seller as an additional insured, shall be primary and noncontributing with any other insurance available to Seller and shall contain a full waiver of subrogation clause.

(c) Seller has, prior to the date hereof, provided to Purchaser the items listed on Exhibit 4.1(b), and will promptly following the reasonable request of Purchaser provide such additional items as are currently within Seller’s possession or control or available to Seller after reasonable inquiry or effort (the items listed on Exhibit 4.1(b) together with all such additional items provided, made available or as otherwise disclosed in writing to Purchaser (the “Inspection Records”). Purchaser will not unreasonably withhold or delay its acknowledgement of items actually delivered to it. By execution of this Agreement, Purchaser is deemed to have acknowledged receipt of the items listed on Exhibit 4.1(b). Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller may abstract the Inspection Records to the extent reasonably necessary in order to preserve the confidentiality of information not relating to the Property. If additional Inspection Records are requested, they may be examined at all reasonable times during normal business hours upon prior reasonable notice to Seller and may be photocopied by Purchaser at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. Seller does not make any representations or warranties as to the content or accuracy of any Inspection Records.

(d) In the event the Closing does not occur for any reason, Purchaser shall return to Seller all Inspection Records and any and all other materials and information with respect to the Property provided to Purchaser by Seller or their respective agents, including any photocopies thereof. In any event, Purchaser shall (i) maintain the confidentiality of the results of its investigation and all materials delivered by Seller or an Affiliate or representative of Seller as required by this Agreement, (ii) disclose such materials only to its employees, agents, prospective investors, partners, lenders, attorneys, consultants and advisors who need to review such materials in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, and to any governmental authority or in connection with any judicial, administrative or other legal

-7-

proceedings, suits or actions, to the extent Purchaser is advised by counsel that it is required to do so, provided that Purchaser or its counsel shall deliver notice to Seller as to the nature and scope of such disclosure prior to it making such disclosure and (iii) return all such materials to Seller (without retaining copies thereof) if the Closing does not occur for any reason.

(e) The provisions of this Section 4.1 shall survive (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing or (ii) earlier termination of this Agreement.

4.2. [Intentionally Omitted]

4.3. Leasing and Other Activities Prior to Closing.

(a) Seller shall not, from and after the Execution Date, enter into amendments, modifications, extensions, renewals or terminations of any existing Leases, Property Contracts or any Person’s employment compensation or benefits in any manner (unless, in the case of the Property Contracts, doing so is in the ordinary course of operating the Property and consistent with past practice and either (i) the aggregate liability of Seller thereunder does not exceed $100,000 or (ii) any such Property Contract will be cancelable by Purchaser following the Closing Date on sixty (60) days’ notice or less without penalty or premium) or enter into any new lease or contract (other than any commitments or reservations for the use of any guest rooms, meeting rooms, banquet facilities, convention facilities or other facilities in the Hotel scheduled to occur on or after the Closing (together with the rent and/or other considerations, if any, owed by guests, tenants, licensees or concessionaires, the “Bookings”) and consistent with this Agreement and past practice); in each case that would affect the Property after the Closing Date, without the written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller may enter into new leases, contracts and purchase orders (or terminate any of the foregoing) without Purchaser’s consent if (A) doing so is in the ordinary course of operating the Property and (B) one of the following is satisfied: (i) the contract will not be binding on Purchaser, or (ii) the contract is cancelable by Purchaser following the Closing Date on sixty (60) days’ or less notice without penalty or premium, or (iii) the aggregate liability of Seller thereunder does not exceed $100,000. In addition, but subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.3(a), within thirty (30) days following the Execution Date, Seller shall deliver such termination notices as Purchaser may request in writing, in order to terminate those Property Contracts or other similar contract not referenced in the immediately preceding sentence that Purchaser does not desire to take assignment of at Closing, to the extent that such Property Contracts are then terminable in accordance with their respective terms. Nothing contained in this Agreement will require Seller to (a) obtain the consent of Purchaser for Property Contracts or Leases that Manager (as defined below) is authorized to enter into without Seller’s consent or (b) terminate any Property Contract disclosed to Purchaser prior to the Execution Date unless Purchaser notifies Seller, within five (5) days following the Execution Date, of its election to terminate such Property Contract and such contract is terminable in accordance with its terms; provided, that in no event shall Seller be required to terminate

(c) When Purchaser’s consent is required pursuant to this Section 4.3, Purchaser shall have three (3) Business Days after receipt from Seller of a written request (which request shall specifically reference this Section 4.3(c) and the three (3) Business Day period) for consent to proposed agreements or Leases, or modifications to the existing Leases or new Leases in which to grant such consent, and if Purchaser fails or refuses to act within such three (3) Business Day period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have granted such consent.

(d) Seller shall not sell, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise transfer or dispose of all or any material part of the Property or any interest therein at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date, other than (i) with respect to depletion and/or replacement of Personal Property and the termination of Leases or Property Contracts in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) leasing of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) Permitted Exceptions, and (iv) the granting of liens or assignments as required by the mortgage loan made pursuant to the terms of that certain loan agreement dated as of June 29, 2004, between Seller, SHC Embarcadero LLC, SHC Xxxxxxx Hills II, L.L.C., SHC Park San Francisco LLC, SHC New York East Side II, L.L.C., SHC Essex II, L.L.C., and SHC New Santa Xxxxx, L.L.C., and German American Capital Corporation (as may be amended and modified from time to time) and evidenced by that certain Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Revenues and Fixture Filing (The Xxxx-Xxxxxxx, Laguna Niguel) dated June 29, 2004, executed and delivered by Seller for the benefit of German American Capital Corporation, as amended by that First Amendment to Deed of Trust made as of November 9, 2005, executed and delivered by Seller for the benefit of Archon Financial, L.P., as security and encumbering the Property (the “Existing Mortgage Loan”).

(e) Except (i) for projects contemplated by the existing capital expenditure budget, (ii) for emergency repairs and replacements, (iii) in the ordinary

-9-

course of business, consistent with past practice, and (iv) for capital expenditures necessary to restore the Property after a casualty or condemnation, Seller shall not, on or after the Execution Date, commit to, make or pay for any capital expenditure, without the written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and if Purchaser fails or refuses to respond within three (3) Business Days after Seller’s written request as provided in clause (c) above, Purchaser shall be deemed to have granted such consent.

(f) Seller shall promptly, after the receipt from Manager of operating statements for each month between the date hereof and the Closing Date or the earlier of termination of the Agreement, deliver to Purchaser true, correct and complete copies of all such operating statements prepared after the Execution Date.

As used herein, the term “Natural Hazard Area” shall mean those areas identified as natural hazard areas or natural hazards in the Natural Hazard Disclosure Act, California Government Code Sections 8589.3, 8589.4 and 51183.5, and California Public Resources Code Sections 2621.9, 2694 and 4136, and any successor statutes or laws (the “Act”). Purchaser hereby acknowledges that, prior to the date of this Agreement, Seller has provided Purchaser with a Natural Hazard Disclosure Statement (the “Disclosure Statement”) in a form required by the Act. Seller has retained the services of a qualified party to examine the maps and other information made available to the public by government agencies for the purpose of enabling Seller to fulfill its disclosure obligations with respect to the Act and to prepare the written report of the result of its examination (the “Report”). Purchaser acknowledges receipt of the Report and that the Report fully and completely discharges Seller from its disclosure obligations under the Act and under California Civil Code Sections 1102 through 1102.17. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in the Disclosure Statement releases Purchaser from its obligation to fully investigate and satisfy itself with the condition of the Property prior to the Execution Date, including, without limitation, whether the Property is located in any Natural Hazard Area. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that the matters set forth in the Disclosure Statement or Report may change on or prior to the Closing and that Seller has no obligation to update, modify or supplement the Disclosure Statement or Report. Purchaser is solely responsible for preparing and delivering its own Disclosure Statement to subsequent prospective purchasers of the Property.

4.5. Alcoholic Beverage License. Each of Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that the liquor license and the liquor inventory for the Hotel (collectively, the “Liquor License Assets”) are not held by Seller but are currently held by Manager (as hereinafter defined).

4.6. Financial Statements. Purchaser has informed Seller that, as an Affiliate of a public company, Purchaser will require audited financial statements relating to the Hotel for the three (3) full calendar years prior to the Closing Date. Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts, at no cost to Seller, to cause the accountants that prepared such audited financial statements to permit Purchaser and its Affiliates to rely on such audits to the extent necessary for Purchaser’s Affiliate to comply with its obligations as a public company. The covenant in the preceding sentence shall survive the Closing Date for a period of three (3) months. Any costs incurred by Seller pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall be promptly reimbursed by Purchaser.

(a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit will immediately be returned to Purchaser and thereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further obligations or liabilities to each other under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein; or

Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under this Section 5.1(b) unless, within twenty (20) Business Days from receipt by Purchaser of written notice (which notice shall reference this clause (b) and said twenty (20) Business Day period) of such casualty from Seller accompanied by Seller’s repair estimate and evidence of the insurance coverages maintained by Seller, Purchaser provides Seller with written notice that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1(a).

5.2. Condemnation.

(a) terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit will immediately be returned to Purchaser and thereupon Seller and Purchaser shall have no further obligations or liabilities to each other under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein; or

(b) proceed to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

If Purchaser elects to proceed to closing under Section 5.2(b), or if the estimated loss of value resulting from an actual or threatened condemnation is $16,500,000 or less, Purchaser shall purchase the Property in accordance with the terms hereof (without reduction in

-11-

the Purchase Price) and Seller shall assign to Purchaser at the Closing all condemnation proceeds payable and still outstanding as a result of such condemnation (less Seller’s reasonable cost to secure the same) and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of any condemnation proceeds previously paid to Seller on account of such condemnation (less Seller’s reasonable cost to secure the same and less repair costs reasonably incurred by Seller with respect to such taking as documented to Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction). Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to proceed under this Section 5.2(b) unless, within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt by Purchaser of written notice from Seller (which notice shall reference this clause (b) and said twenty (20) Business Day period) of the condemnation or condemnation proceedings or threat of condemnation proceedings, Purchaser provides Seller with written notice that Purchaser elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2(a).

(b) Prorations. The following shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Cut-Off Time:

(i) All real estate taxes, water or sewer charges and general or special assessments on the Real Property, or any other governmental tax or charge levied or assessed against the Property. If the Closing shall occur before the actual amounts payable are known, then apportionment shall be based on the most recently ascertainable tax rates and assessed value of the Property. Seller shall be responsible for all such taxes that are allocable to any period prior to the Closing Date and Purchaser shall be responsible for all such taxes allocable to any period

-25-

from and after the Closing Date. If any taxes or assessments relating to the period prior to the Closing are paid in installments, then Seller shall pay on or before the Closing Date any remaining installments with respect to such taxes or assessments that are allocable to any period prior to the Closing Date. Seller and Purchaser agree that to the extent the actual taxes for the current year differ from the amount so apportioned at Closing, the parties hereto will within thirty (30) days after receipt of a request from Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, make all necessary adjustments by appropriate payments between themselves promptly following the Closing. If, as of the Closing Date, Seller is protesting or has notified Purchaser, in writing, that it has elected to protest any taxes for the Property, then Purchaser agrees that Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation), after the Closing Date, to continue such protest; provided, however, Seller shall not protest or contest any taxes for the tax period in which the Closing occurs or thereafter. Purchaser further agrees to cooperate (without material cost or liability) with Seller and execute any documents requested by Seller in connection with such protest. In connection with its protest Seller shall not enter into any agreement which would increase the taxes for the Property from and after the Closing Date as part of such protest. As to the Property, any tax savings received (“Tax Refunds”) for the relevant tax year under any protest, whether filed by Seller or Purchaser, shall be prorated between the parties based upon the number of days, if any, Seller and Purchaser respectively owned the Real Property during such relevant tax year and any payment of Tax Refunds to the non-protesting party shall be net of any fees and expenses payable to any third party for processing such protest, including attorneys’ fees. Seller shall have the obligation to refund to any tenants in good standing as of the date of such Tax Refund any portion of such Tax Refund paid to Seller which may be owing to such tenants, which payment shall be paid to Purchaser within fifteen (15) business days of delivery to Seller by Purchaser of written confirmation of such tenants’ entitlement to such Tax Refunds. Purchaser shall have the obligation to refund to tenants in good standing as of the date of such Tax Refund, any portion of such Tax Refund paid to it which may be owing to such tenants. Seller and Purchaser agree to notify the other in writing of any receipt of a Tax Refund within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of such Tax Refund. To the extent either party obtains a Tax Refund, a portion of which is owed to the other party, the receiving party shall deliver such portion of the Tax Refund to the other party within fifteen (15) business days of its receipt. If Purchaser or Seller fail to pay such amount(s) to the other as and when due, such amount(s) shall bear interest from the date any such amount is due to Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, until paid at the lesser of (a) twelve percent (12%) per annum and (b) the maximum amount permitted by law. The obligations set forth herein shall survive the Closing and Purchaser agrees that, as a condition to the transfer of the Property by Purchaser, Purchaser will cause any transferee to assume the obligations set forth herein to the extent any protest by Seller is pending at the time of such transfer.

(ii) All fixed and additional rentals under the Leases, including, without limitation, any percentage rent, additional rent or escalation charges or reimbursements for real property taxes, operating expenses, electricity, other

-26-

utilities or other charges, and the Tenant Deposits, in each case as and when actually received. Seller shall deliver or provide a credit in an amount equal to all prepaid rents for periods after the Closing Date and all unapplied Tenant Deposits (other than letters of credit and guarantees). Rents (including operating expense, tax and insurance charges payable by tenants) which are delinquent as of the Closing Date shall not be prorated on the Closing Date and all rights thereto shall be retained by Seller, who reserves the right (subject to this Section 8.4(b) and subject to the limitation that Seller shall not have the right to bring or maintain any action to either dispossess any tenant that is in possession or terminate any of the Leases) to collect and retain such delinquent rents. Purchaser agrees to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Seller in Seller’s efforts to collect such rents (but not including joining in any legal action instituted by Seller or spending any money or incurring any expenses in order to do so). To the extent Purchaser receives payments on or after the Closing Date from a tenant that was delinquent at the Closing, such payments shall be applied as follows: (1) first, to the calendar month in which the Closing occurs (the “Closing Month”); (2) second, to the month immediately preceding the Closing Month; (3) third, to the month immediately succeeding the Closing Month; (4) fourth, to the month immediately preceding the month specified in clause (2); (5) fifth, to the month immediately succeeding the month specified in clause (3); (6) sixth, the month preceding the month specified in clause (4); and (7) thereafter, to all remaining months succeeding the month specified in clause (5). Purchaser shall remit to Seller any such rent it is owed within five (5) Business Days after its Receipt.

(iii) To the extent Property Contracts are not terminated pursuant to Section 4.3, (1) Seller shall be credited for sums prepaid by Seller under the Property Contracts, (2) Purchaser shall be credited for any amounts which as of Closing are due or accrued and relate to the period prior to Closing and (3) Purchaser and Seller shall prorate any amounts prepaid by the counterparty to any Property Contract (including, without limitation, prepaid bonuses or decorating allowances paid to Seller with respect to laundry or other similar ancillary leases or agreements) over the term of the Property Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Purchaser receive a credit for any portion of the Operator’s Fee-Bonus (as defined in the Management Agreement) paid pursuant to the Management Agreement.

(iv) Seller shall perform, or cause to be performed, an accounting of cash on hand at the Property (i.e., in-house banks and xxxxx cash, including till money, and, to the extent same are the property of Seller, vending machines and pay telephones) and all cash and cash equivalents held in respect of the Management Agreement and the Existing Mortgage Loan (such as escrows for taxes, insurance, etc.) in the presence of a representative of Purchaser. Purchaser shall retain all amounts required to be held pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement while all other cash on hand at the Property and cash and cash equivalents held solely in respect of the Existing Mortgage Loan shall be retained by Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall receive a credit for all amounts Purchaser retains pursuant to this Section 8.4(b)(iv) less any amounts

-27-

held in the Reserve established pursuant to the Management Agreement, it being agreed and understood that Purchaser shall receive the rights to such Reserve without cost to it.

(v) Advance deposits, if any, under the Bookings and all tour and travel agent commissions paid for guest completing their stays prior to Closing shall be retained by and be the sole responsibility of Seller, and Purchaser shall receive a credit for advance deposits, if any, under the Bookings to the extent any Bookings relate to a period after the Closing. In consideration for any and all outstanding gift certificates, vouchers and other similar items (each, a “Gift Certificate”) entitling persons to complimentary or discounted rooms, food, beverages, spa treatments or other goods or services consumed or provided at the Hotel (other than those Gift Certificates entitling persons to a free stay at the Hotel for more one or more nights), Purchaser shall receive a credit in an amount equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), and Seller shall have no other liability or obligation in respect thereof. With respect to Gift Certificates entitling persons to a free stay at the Hotel for one or more nights, Purchaser shall receive a credit in an amount equal to One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) for each night of hotel room accommodation at the Hotel provided in such Gift Certificate that is not redeemed as of the Closing and that remains redeemable from and after the Closing Date.

(vi) All accrued compensation and benefits (including, without limitation, vacation benefits) payable to Hotel Employees attributable to the period prior to Closing, shall be debited to Seller. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, as to any severance obligations to Hotel Employees, Seller shall remain obligated for any such payments due and payable due to Seller’s actions in terminating any such employee prior to Closing. Similarly, Purchaser shall be liable for any severance obligations arising due to terminations of Property employees which occur after Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, “termination” shall be defined as loss of employment.

(vii) To the extent that with respect to electricity, telephone, television, gas, water and sewer services which are metered and other utilities, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to have the respective companies providing such utilities read the meters on or immediately prior to the Cut-Off Time. Seller shall be responsible for all charges based on such final meter readings and Purchaser shall be responsible for all charges thereafter. To the extent such meters are not read and final bills rendered as of the Cut-Off Time, such charges with respect to the Property shall be prorated effective as of the Cut-Off Time utilizing an estimate of such charges reasonably approved by both Purchaser and Seller based on prior utility bills, unless Seller elects to close its own applicable account as of the Cut-Off Time, in which event Purchaser shall open its own account as of the Closing Date and the respective charges shall not be prorated, and, if Seller does not close its own applicable account, any deposits or credits with respect to the foregoing services will be credited to Seller. Upon the taking

-28-

of a subsequent actual reading, such apportionment shall be adjusted to reflect the actual rate for the billing period in which the date of Closing falls, and Seller, or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly deliver to the other the amount determined to be due upon such adjustment.

(viii) At the Closing, Seller will sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from Seller, in addition to the Purchase Price for the Property all Food and Beverage Inventory (other than loose bottles of wine or liquor (whether opened or unopened) that are not in closed cases, which loose bottles shall remain on the Property and shall be excluded from the prorations for all purposes (such loose bottles being referred to as the “Excluded Liquor”)) at the Property at Seller’s actual cost as disclosed by Sellers’ books; provided, however, if no cost is ascertainable with respect to a particular component of the Food and Beverage Inventory on Sellers’ books, the first in, first out method of valuation will be used. The purchase price of all Food and Beverage Inventory (other than the Excluded Liquor) will be determined by an actual inventory of all Food and Beverage Inventory taken the day preceding the Closing Date (or such other date as the parties hereto may reasonably agree upon) and will be paid to Seller at Closing in a credit to Seller on Purchaser’s and Seller’s closing statements in the computation of adjustments and prorations on the Closing Date. The closing inventory will be conducted jointly by representatives of Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser will pay for (a) all unopened cases, boxes or other containers of Food and Beverage Inventory (other than the Excluded Liquor), (b) all unopened individual items of Food and Beverage Inventory (other than the Excluded Liquor), and (c) to the extent permitted by applicable law, all other unopened Food and Beverage Inventory and similar unused perishables usable in the ordinary course of the operation of the Property (other than the Excluded Liquor). “Food and Beverage Inventory” means all saleable inventory of food and beverages owned by Seller or by Manager on behalf of Seller, and located at the Property, and used in the operation of any restaurant, cafe, bar or other food service operation within the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Food and Beverage Inventory shall exclude all Liquor License Assets to be sold pursuant to any liquor license asset purchase agreement.

Representatives of Seller and Purchaser shall make such inventories, examinations and audits of Seller, and of the books and records of Seller, as may be necessary to make the adjustments and prorations required under this Agreement. Prior to Closing, representatives of Purchaser and Seller shall jointly prepare a statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) based upon such preliminary inventories, audits and examinations which will show the net amount due to Seller or Purchaser as the result thereof, and that net amount will be added to, or deducted from, the Purchase Price. Within sixty (60) days following the Closing, representatives of Purchaser and Seller shall prepare a revised statement (the “Final Closing Statement”, and together with the Preliminary Closing Statement, collectively, the “Closing Statements”) setting forth the final determination of all items to be included in the Closing Statements, and any necessary payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after completion of such Final Closing Statement, provided that any items then still not ascertainable shall be adjusted at such time as they are ascertainable, it being understood that any item which

-29-

cannot be finally prorated because of the unavailability of information shall be tentatively prorated on the basis of the best data then available and re-prorated when the information is available but in no event later than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 8.4 (subject to the provisions of Section 8.4(b)(i)) shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing.

Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the purpose and intent of the provisions set forth in this Section 8.4 and elsewhere in this Agreement as to prorations and apportionments is that Seller shall bear all expenses of the ownership and operation of the Property (for which buyers and sellers of hotels in Orange County, California would customarily prorate or apportion) and shall receive all income therefrom accruing through the Cut-Off Time and Purchaser shall bear all such expenses and receive all income accruing thereafter. Any revenues and/or expenses affecting the Property that are not otherwise specifically addressed in Section 8.4(b) shall be apportioned consistently with the foregoing provisions. Purchaser and Seller further acknowledge and agree that the apportionments as to the Hotel in this Section 8.4 shall be prepared, to the extent applicable and not otherwise expressly provided herein, in accordance with the current edition of the Uniform System of Accounts for Hotels.

8.5. Guest Ledger Receivables. In addition to the items set forth in Section 8.4, Seller shall receive a credit for all guest ledger receivables, i.e., those receivables from transient guests then in occupancy for their then period of occupancy, as of 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the Closing (the ”Cut-Off Time”); provided, however, that Seller and Purchaser shall each receive 50% of such amount of transient guest receivables for the full night preceding the time of Closing (provided, further, however, that 100% of all guest ledger receivables relating to the night beginning on the day of Closing shall belong to Purchaser). Seller shall also receive such income and shall be charged the expenses attributable to any other revenue sources at the Hotel, including, without limitation, telephone, parking, restaurant and bar revenue, until the Cut-Off Time, and the income and expenses attributable to the restaurant or bar facilities which remain open after the Cut-Off Time until such facilities are closed on the date of the Closing.

8.6. Other Receivables. Purchaser shall purchase all Miscellaneous Accounts Receivable (as defined below) for the Property outstanding as of the Cut-Off Time in an amount equal to 95% of the aggregate amount thereof, and Seller shall receive a credit at Closing for such amounts, and after the Close of Escrow Purchaser shall be entitled to all collections for such Miscellaneous Accounts Receivable. After receipt of such credit, Seller shall take no steps or actions to collect such Miscellaneous Accounts Receivable. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Miscellaneous Accounts Receivable” shall mean all accounts receivable other than the guest ledger receivables, income and charges described in Section 8.5 above and tenant receivables described in Section 8.4 above.

8.7. Insurance Premiums. Subject to Section 5.1, the Insurance Policies shall not be assigned to Purchaser, and there shall be no apportionment with respect to any insurance premiums due thereunder.

-30-

8.8. Notice to Tenants. Seller covenants and agrees to execute, at the Closing, a written notice of the acquisition of the Property by Purchaser, in sufficient copies for transmittal to all tenants affected by the sale and purchase of the Property and properly addressed to all such tenants. Such notice shall be prepared by Seller in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 8.8, shall notify the tenants of the sale and transfer and shall contain appropriate instructions relating to the payment of future rentals, the giving of future notices, and other matters reasonably required by Purchaser or required by law. Unless a different procedure is required by applicable law, in which event such laws shall be controlling, Purchaser agrees to transmit or otherwise deliver such letters to the tenants, with copies thereof to Seller, promptly after such Closing.

8.9. Records. For a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall retain, and allow Seller and its representatives reasonable access to review, all documents relating to the Property for the period of Seller’s ownership or operation thereof reasonably requested by Seller, provided, that any such review shall take place at the Property or such other site in Orange County, California, as designated by Purchaser and in the presence of a representative of Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 8.9 shall survive the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing.

9. Advisory Fee. If and when, but only if and when, the Closing is completed and the Purchase Price is paid in full, Seller shall be obligated to pay an advisory fee to Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. and Xxxxxx, Xxxx and Xxxxxxx, Inc. (the “Advisors”) pursuant to a separate agreement between Seller and each Advisor. Such fees shall be paid in full at the Closing. Purchaser shall have no obligation whatsoever to make any payment to the Advisors in connection with the purchase and sale of the Property. Seller and Purchaser represent and warrant to each other that no other advisory fee, brokerage fee or real estate commission is or shall be due or owing to any party other than the Advisors in connection with this transaction based on any action or contact by such party, and Seller and Purchaser hereby agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any and all loss, liability, claim, cause of action, damage, cost or other expense of any nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, resulting from a breach of such representation and warranty. The provisions of this Section 9 shall survive (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing or (ii) earlier termination of this Agreement.

10. Termination And Default.

10.1. PURCHASER’S DEFAULT; LIQUIDATED DAMAGES – DEPOSIT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IF THE CLOSING AND THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY ARE NOT CONSUMMATED AS A RESULT OF PURCHASER’S DEFAULT HEREUNDER, SELLER SHALL AS ITS SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY BE ENTITLED TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT BY PROVIDING WRITTEN NOTICE TO PURCHASER AND RETAIN THE DEPOSIT AS SELLER’S LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND SUCH AMOUNT SHALL, SUBJECT TO THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN SECTION 13, PROMPTLY BE PAID TO SELLER BY ESCROW AGENT AND NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY FURTHER OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER TO THE OTHER. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY IMPRACTICABLE AND DIFFICULT TO

-31-

ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY SELLER AS A RESULT OF PURCHASER’S FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE EXECUTION DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION REPRESENT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER WILL INCUR AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE. THE PAYMENT OF SUCH AMOUNT AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO SELLER PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT WAIVE OR AFFECT PURCHASER’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 4.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH EXPRESSLY SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Seller’s Initials: Purchaser’s Initials:

10.2. Seller’s Default. In the event the Closing and the transaction contemplated hereby is not consummated as a result of Seller’s default hereunder, Purchaser may, at its election and as its sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity, either (a) terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller, in which case the Deposit shall, subject to the procedures set forth in Section 13, promptly be returned to Purchaser by Escrow Agent and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for its reasonable out of pocket costs (but in no event shall such reimbursement for out of pocket costs exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($100,000)) in connection with entering into this Agreement and its preparation for the acquisition of the Hotel or (b) xxx for specific performance of this Agreement, provided that (i) all conditions to Seller’s obligation to consummate the transactions herein contemplated shall have been satisfied and (ii) Purchaser shall have commenced such suit within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date. Purchaser hereby waives its right to collect all other damages, rights and remedies, and agrees that the foregoing shall be Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of any default by Seller hereunder, except in connection with matters that survive the Closing. Seller shall not be considered to be in default if Seller has cured any such default by the Closing Date.

10.3. Survival. The provisions of this Section 10 shall survive (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing or (ii) earlier termination of this Agreement.

11. Employment and Employee Benefit Matters.

11.1. Hotel Employees.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges that all employees at the Property (“Hotel Employees”) are employed by Manager and that Manager maintains sole and absolute control over the hiring, firing and day-to-day control of such Hotel Employees pursuant to the Management Agreement.

-32-

(b) As between Seller and Purchaser, not later than three (3) days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide the Purchaser a true and accurate accounting of each Hotel Employee’s compensation and other benefits (including, without limitation, wages, payroll taxes, accrued but unused vacation, severance compensation, and any other compensation payable, whether or not under any contract or employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3.3 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act) maintained by Seller or Manager payable to, or earned or accrued in respect of, all Hotel Employees (including any beneficiaries thereof) (“Hotel Benefit Plans”) for the period ending on the Cut-Off Time.

(c) Purchaser shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price for the sum equal to the aggregate amount of all such compensation and other benefits, including payroll taxes due in connection therewith, for Hotel employees as of the Closing Date. Purchaser agrees to be responsible for, and to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from, all costs and expenses of such compensation and other benefits for all Hotel employees, including payroll taxes due in connection therewith, provided, however, that Purchaser shall only be liable for such costs and expenses that are attributable to the period prior to the Cut-Off Time to the extent of the credit received by Purchaser.

(d) Seller shall be responsible for the payment of any final award, judgment rendered, or settlement reached, and shall indemnify Purchaser for any cost it incurs in connection with any such award, judgment or settlement or with any proceeding in which any Employee Claim is made against Purchaser by any Hotel Employee, with respect to any claims, demands, actions or administrative proceedings (collectively, “Employee Claims”) brought (whether before or after the Closing Date) by any of the Hotel Employees, but only for that portion of the Employee Claims relating to events which occurred prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and/or or Manager shall be responsible for providing health care continuation coverage under Section 4980B of Title 26 of the United States Code after the Closing Date with respect to all Hotel Employees after the Cut-Off Time.

Accordingly, it is contemplated that the provisions of the WARN Act and of California Labor Code Section 1400 et seq. shall not be applicable to this transaction. Purchaser therefore agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any damages that may be incurred by, or asserted against Seller arising out of or relating to Purchaser’s failure, if any, to comply with WARN or California Labor Code Section 1400 et seq. with respect to Hotel employees in connection with the transactions described in this Agreement.

11.3. Indemnification. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller and Seller’s Affiliates harmless from and against any and all damages which any of them may sustain by reason of, or arising out of, or resulting from Purchaser’s failure to discharge any of the obligations and liabilities of Purchaser under Sections 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4, 11.5 and 11.6 of this Agreement.

11.4. Cooperation. Purchaser and Seller agree to cooperate reasonably with each other to the extent legally permissible in the defense of any claims brought by or on behalf of Employees or former employees against Seller or Purchaser. Such cooperation shall include, but not be limited to, providing: (i) workers compensation claims processing; (ii) access to and copying of personnel and I-9 records to the extent legally permissible; and (iii) for the availability of employees for such matters as interviews and depositions.

11.5. Release of Employee Personnel Records. Prior to Closing, Purchaser or an Affiliate of Purchaser shall identify to Seller, in writing, the employee personnel records that Purchaser or its Affiliate intends to access, copy, or obtain from Seller. Subject to applicable law, Seller shall permit Purchaser or its Affiliate to access or copy, or shall transfer to Purchaser or its Affiliate, as applicable, the employee personnel records so identified by Purchaser, or its Affiliate in a manner so as to preserve the confidentiality of such records. Purchaser and its Affiliates shall maintain the privacy of such records in accordance with applicable laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all damages, which Seller may sustain at any time relating to Purchaser’s use of such records in violation of applicable law, or Seller’s permitting access to or copying of any such employee personnel record by Purchaser. The provisions of this Section 11.5 shall survive (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing or (ii) the termination of this Agreement.

11.6. Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Article XI shall create any third-party beneficiary rights for the benefit of any Hotel Employees.

11.7. Survival. This Article XI shall survive the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing.

Purchaser shall provide a copy of the instrument effecting such assignment to Seller. In addition, Purchaser may designate, on not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to Seller prior to Closing, an Affiliate taxable REIT subsidiary to receive certain of the assignments and transfers provided for in this Agreement, it being agreed that without such notice (x) the Xxxx of Sale and General Assignment shall assign the items listed in subsection (iii) thereof (other than the Golf Agreement) to DTRS Laguna, L.L.C, and (y) the Assignment of Bookings and Booking Deposits and the Assignment and Assumption of Management Agreement shall be assigned to DTRS Laguna, L.L.C.

12.5. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all disputes arising, directly or indirectly, out of or relating to this Agreement, and all actions to enforce this Agreement, shall be dealt with and adjudicated only in the state courts of the State of California or the Federal courts sitting in the State of California. The parties hereto hereby expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts in any suit, action or proceeding arising, directly or indirectly, out of or relating to this Agreement. To the extent permitted under the applicable law, this consent to personal jurisdiction shall be self-operative and no further instrument or action, other than service of process in one of the manners specified in this Agreement, or as otherwise permitted by law, shall be necessary in order to confer jurisdiction upon the parties hereto in any such court.

Provided that service of process is effected upon a party in one of the manners hereafter specified in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted by law, that party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, (a) any objection which it may have or may hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court as is mentioned in the previous paragraph, (b) any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court

The parties hereto agree to execute, deliver and file all such further instruments as may be necessary under the laws of the State of California, in order to make effective the consent of the parties hereto to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California and the Federal courts sitting in the State of California.

Provided that service is made in accordance with this Section or otherwise as permitted by law, each of Purchaser and Seller irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all claim of error by reason of any such service and agrees that such service (a) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon Purchaser and Seller in any such suit, action or proceeding and (b) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to Purchaser and Seller.

Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of the parties hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

12.6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.16. Construction of Agreement.

12.17. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT) BROUGHT BY EITHER PURCHASER, ON THE ONE HAND, OR SELLER, ON THE OTHER HAND, AGAINST THE OTHER IN RESPECT OF ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

12.18. Survival.

(a) Any obligations or liabilities of Seller or Purchaser hereunder shall survive the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement only to the extent expressly provided herein.

(b) Unless expressly stated otherwise (e.g., obligations that are stated to be surviving, such as in Section 11.7), all terms and provisions contained herein shall not survive Closing and instead shall be deemed merged into the deed delivered at Closing.

-38-

12.19. Disclosure. Each of Seller and Purchaser hereby covenants for itself and its Affiliates that prior to, at or following the Closing it shall not issue any press release or public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior consent of all parties to this Agreement (which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld), except to the extent required by law or the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided herein no such announcement shall (i) be made unless the Closing has occurred or (ii) make any reference to the Purchase Price or other material terms of this Agreement except to the extent that the same are a matter of public record or available to the public generally. If Seller or Purchaser is required by law to issue such a press release or public statement, such party shall, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the issuance of the same, deliver a copy of the proposed release or statement to the other parties for their review. This Section 12.19 shall survive (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into any instrument of conveyance delivered at the Closing or (ii) earlier termination of this Agreement.

12.20. Guest Baggage and Safe Deposit Boxes.

(a) Property of Guests.

Possession and control of all such other baggage, parcels or property listed on such inventory shall be delivered to Purchaser at Closing and Purchaser shall be responsible from and after the Closing for the liability of all items listed in such inventory, but only in the condition actually delivered by Seller. Seller shall remain liable for any acts or omissions with respect to such baggage which occurred prior to the date of Closing as well as for claimed omissions from said inventory, and Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any liability therefor.

(b) Notice to Persons With Safe Deposit Boxes. On the Closing Date, Seller shall give written notices (“Seller Verification Notices”) to guests, tenants, and other persons who have safe deposit boxes at the Hotel or who have deposited items in the house safe at the Hotel (the “Depositors”), if any, advising them of the sale of the Property to Purchaser and requesting, within 48 hours, verification of the contents of in their safe deposit boxes and/or the house safe and either (i) removal of such contents, or (ii) if such Depositors desire to have the continued use of the safe deposit boxes and/or the house safe, the execution of a new agreement with Purchaser for such continued use. Copies of Seller’s Verification Notices shall be given to Purchaser. During said 48-hour period, each safe deposit box and/or the house safe shall be opened and the items therein recorded only in the presence of representatives of both Seller and Purchaser. If the Depositors desire to continue to use a safe deposit box and/or the house safe, Purchaser

-39-

shall make arrangements for such continued use. The contents of all safe deposit boxes and/or the house safe of Depositors not responding to Seller’s Verification Notices shall be opened promptly after the expiration of the 48-hour period, but only in the presence of both Seller and Purchaser.

Further, Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to refer to any other document between or among Purchaser and Seller referred to in or related to this Agreement, unless Escrow Agent is provided with a copy of such document and consents thereto in writing.

(b) Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone by reason of any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by Escrow Agent in good faith, or for any mistake of fact or law, or for anything which Escrow Agent may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, unless caused by or arising out of Escrow Agent’s actual and intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

(c) Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be protected in acting in reliance, upon any writing furnished to Escrow Agent by either Purchaser or Seller and shall be entitled to treat as genuine, and as the document it purports to be, any letter, paper or other document furnished to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may rely on any affidavit of either Purchaser or Seller or any other person as to the existence of any facts stated therein to be known by the affiant.

(d) If Seller shall become entitled to retain or receive the Deposit or other amount paid under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall pay the same to Seller together with all interest earned thereon and if Purchaser shall become entitled to a return of the Deposit or other amount paid under this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall pay the same to Purchaser together with all interest earned thereon; provided, however, that no disbursement pursuant to this subsection shall be made by Escrow Agent until the third (3rd) Business Day following the receipt or deemed receipt of notice by Seller and Purchaser from Escrow Agent of its intention to so disburse, and disbursement made by Escrow Agent after the passage of such three (3) Business Day period shall relieve Escrow Agent from all liability in connection with such disbursement unless such disbursement is proscribed by order of a court of competent jurisdiction or objected to in writing by Seller or Purchaser. If such disbursement is objected to in writing by Seller or Purchaser within such three (3) Business Day period, then Escrow Agent shall not make such disbursement until unanimously instructed in writing by Purchaser and Seller, or is directed to make such disbursement by a court of competent jurisdiction.

-40-

(e) In the event of any disagreement between Purchaser and Seller resulting in adverse claims and demands being made in connection with or against the funds held in escrow, Escrow Agent shall refuse to comply with the claims or demands of either party until such disagreement is finally resolved (i) by a court of competent jurisdiction (in proceedings which Escrow Agent or any other party may initiate, it being understood and agreed by Purchaser and Seller that Escrow Agent has authority (but not the obligation) to initiate such proceedings), (ii) by an arbitrator in the event that Purchaser and Seller mutually and jointly determine to submit the dispute to arbitration pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association, and in so doing Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable to a party, or (iii) by written settlement between Purchaser and Seller.

(f) Purchaser and Seller each agree to jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including legal fees) and other expenses in any way incurred by Escrow Agent (except to the extent Escrow Agent willfully disregards any provision of this Agreement to which it is bound) in connection with or as a result of any disagreement between Purchaser and Seller under this Agreement or otherwise incurred by Escrow Agent in any way on account of its role as Escrow Agent, except that neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any obligation to pay Escrow Agent any fee for escrow services hereunder.

(g) Escrow Agent in its sole discretion shall have the right to resign as the Escrow Agent under this Agreement, provided that it shall provide both Purchaser and Seller with at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such resignation pursuant to the notice provisions of Section 12.7. Upon any such resignation, Escrow Agent shall transfer the Deposit and any interest earned thereon to a successor Escrow Agent jointly approved by Purchaser and Seller, whereupon the original Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation or liability whatsoever as Escrow Agent under this Agreement.

(h) The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Federal Deposit Insurance for the Deposit, if any, is limited to a cumulative maximum amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) for each individual depositor for all of the depositor’s accounts at the same or related institution.

The parties acknowledge and agree that Escrow Agent shall have no obligation or liability with respect to insuring the Deposit or with respect to the solvency of the depository institution, or otherwise with respect to the appropriateness of the depository institution for purposes of the Deposit. Further, the parties understand that Escrow Agent assumes no responsibility for, nor will the parties hold the same liable for, any loss occurring which arises from the fact that (x) the amount of the account or accounts contemplated hereby may cause the aggregate amount of any individual depositor’s account or accounts to exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), (y) that this excess amount is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or (z) that Federal Deposit Insurance is not available on certain types of bank instruments.

-41-

(i) Escrow Agent may pay the Deposit into a court of competent jurisdiction upon commencement by Escrow Agent of an interpleader action in such court. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and attorneys’ fees of Escrow Agent for such interpleader action shall be paid by the losing party in such interpleader action.

(j) The rights and immunities of Escrow Agent hereunder shall apply equally to its partners, of counsel, associates, employees, Affiliates and agents.

(k) All of Escrow Agent’s obligations under this Agreement other than as provided herein shall automatically terminate upon disbursing the Deposit as set forth above.

14. Escrow Agent – IRS Real Estate Sales Reporting. Purchaser, Seller and Escrow Agent hereby agree and acknowledge that Escrow Agent shall act as “the real estate reporting person” with respect to the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 6045(e) and shall prepare, if not prepared by Seller or Purchaser, and file all informational returns, including without limitation, IRS Form 1099-S, and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 6045(e). The Escrow Agent shall also remit to the proper authority all state and local transfer taxes required in connection with the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller shall reasonably cooperate in connection with such filings.

15. Facilitation of Exchange. If any party hereto elects (the “Electing Party”) to conduct a tax free exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, then the other party hereto agrees to cooperate (the “Cooperating Party”) with the Electing Party in conducting such tax free exchange under such Section 1031 of the Code relating to this transaction. In the event of such an election, the Electing Party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Cooperating Party harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation, that the Cooperating Party may suffer or incur by reason of such exchange. Purchaser and Seller expressly reserve the right to assign their rights, but not their obligations, hereunder to a Qualified Intermediary as provided in IRC Reg. 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4) on or before the Closing Date. Each Cooperating Party agrees to cooperate, but at no cost, expense or risk to said Cooperating Party, and take any actions reasonably requested by the Electing Party to cause such exchange to be consummated and to qualify as a like kind exchange under such Section 1031 of the Code, including, but not limited to, (a) permitting this Agreement to be assigned to a Qualified Intermediary and (b) conveying the Property to, or at the direction of, the Qualified Intermediary. In no event, however, shall any such exchange extend, delay or otherwise adversely affect the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing. All references in this paragraph to tax-free exchange under Section 1031 of the Code shall include “reverse exchanges” as set forth in Revenue Procedure 2000-37, 2000-2 C.B. 308.
