THE LINE: USE OF PROCEEDS

Section 2.1

Line of Credit.

(a) Lenders will establish for Borrower for and during the period from the date hereof and until the Expiration Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, a revolving line of credit (the “Line”) pursuant to which Lenders will from time to time make Loans to Borrower in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed at any time Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000) (the “Committed Amount”). Each Lender severally agrees to make Loans to Borrower from time to time in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the advance under the Line requested by Borrower and in an aggregate principal amount up to its Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount; provided, however, that (i) with regard to each Lender individually, the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of Loans plus Letter of Credit Obligations shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Committed Amount and (ii) with regard to the Lenders collectively, the aggregate principal amount of Loans plus Letter of Credit Obligations shall not exceed the Committed Amount. Neither Agent nor any other Lender shall be obligated to advance the share of any other Lender. Agent shall not be required to make the full amount of any requested advance unless and until it receives funds representing each other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such requested advance, but Agent shall advance to Borrower that portion of the requested advance equal to the Commitment Percentages of such requested advance which it has received from Lenders. Within the limits of the Line, Borrower may borrow, repay and re-borrow under the Line. The Line shall be subject to all terms and conditions set forth in all of the Loan Documents, which terms and conditions are incorporated herein.

(b) The obligations to repay the Loans and to pay interest thereon shall be evidenced by a promissory note of Borrower to Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (“Line Note”). In the event a Lender requests a separate promissory note of Borrower representing such Lender’s Commitment, Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver to such Lender a separate Line Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment and representing the obligations of Borrower to pay such Lender the amount of such Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans made by such Lender hereunder, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth herein. All payments under the Line Notes shall be remitted by Borrower to Agent. In the event any Lender receives a Loan payment directly from Borrower, such Lender shall immediately remit the entire amount of such payment to Agent, to be disbursed by Agent in accordance with Section 13.13 hereof. Borrower irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause to be made appropriate notations on its Line Note, or on a record pertaining thereto, reflecting Loans and repayments thereof. The outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on such Lender’s Line Note or record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to make such notation or record, or any error in such notation or record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower hereunder or under any Line Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Line Note when due. Any references herein to a “Note” or “Notes” shall be deemed to mean and refer to each Line Note individually and all Line Notes collectively.

(c) Each Lender shall make its Commitment Percentage of each advance available to Agent, for the account of the Borrower, in funds immediately available to Agent at Agent’s designated office by 1:00 p.m. on the date specified in the applicable Line Request. If Agent does not receive each other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of an advance, and Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to make the advance on behalf of Lenders or any of them, Agent shall be entitled to recover each Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each such advance together with interest at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate during the period commencing on the date such advance is made and ending on (but excluding) the date Agent recovers such amount. Each Lender is absolutely and unconditionally obligated, without deduction or setoff of any kind, to forward to Agent its Commitment Percentage of each advance made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent Agent is not reimbursed by such Lender, Borrower shall repay Agent immediately upon demand such amount. Agent also shall be entitled to recover any and all actual losses and damages (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) from any Lender failing to so advance upon demand of Agent. Agent may set off the obligations of a Lender under this paragraph against any distributions of payments of the Obligations, which Agent would otherwise make available to such Lender, at any time.

(d) To the extent and during the time period in which any Lender fails to provide or delays providing its respective payment to Agent pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, such Lender’s percentage of all payments of the Obligations (but not its Commitment Percentage of future advances required to be funded by such Lender) shall decrease to reflect the actual percentage which its actual outstanding Loans bears to the total outstanding Loans of all Lenders. During the time period in which any Lender fails to provide or delays providing its respective payment to Agent pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, such Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions to Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent or to vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be made without regard to such Lender and, for purposes of the definition of Required Lenders, such Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender.

2.2.3 Participation. Each Lender, upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the Issuing Bank in such Letter of Credit and the obligations arising thereunder, in each case in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit, and shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to the Issuing Bank therefor and discharge when due, its Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that the Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed as required hereunder or under any such Letter of Credit, each such Lender shall pay to the Issuing Bank its Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2.4(c). The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.

2.2.4 Reimbursement.

(a) In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify Borrower. Unless Borrower shall immediately notify the Issuing Bank that Borrower intends to otherwise reimburse the Issuing Bank for such drawing, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Lenders make a Loan in the amount of the drawing as provided in Section 2.2.5 on the related Letter of Credit, the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the related reimbursement obligations.

(b) Borrower promises to reimburse the Issuing Bank on the day of drawing under any Letter of Credit (either with the proceeds of a Loan obtained hereunder or otherwise) in same day funds. If Borrower shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Bank as provided hereinabove, the unreimbursed amount of such drawing shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus three percent (3%). Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances irrespective of any rights of setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment Borrower may claim or have against the Issuing Bank, the Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit drawn upon or any other Person, including without limitation any defense based on any failure of Borrower to receive consideration or the legality, validity, regularity or unenforceability of the Letter of Credit.

(c) The Issuing Bank will promptly notify the other Lenders of the amount of any unreimbursed drawing and each Lender shall promptly pay to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in Dollars and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing. Such payment shall be made on the Business Day such notice is received by such Lender from the Issuing Bank if such notice is received at or before 2:00 P.M. otherwise such payment shall be made at or before 12:00 Noon on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received. If such Lender does not pay such amount to the Issuing Bank in full upon such request, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date of such drawing until such Lender pays such amount to the Issuing Bank in full at a rate per annum equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date that such Lender is required to make payments of such amount pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Federal Funds Rate and thereafter at a rate equal to the Prime Rate. Each Lender’s obligation to make such payment to the Issuing Bank, and the right of the Issuing Bank to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to the termination of this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the acceleration of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(d) Simultaneously with the making of each payment by a Lender to the Issuing Bank, such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or such Lender, acquire a participation in an amount equal to such payment (excluding the portion of such payment constituting interest owing to the Issuing Bank) in the related unreimbursed drawing portion of the Letter of Credit Obligation and in the interest thereon and in the related Letter of Credit Documents, and shall have a claim against Borrower with respect thereto.

2.2.5 Repayment with Loans.

(a) On any day on which Borrower shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested, a Loan advance to reimburse a drawing under a standby Letter of Credit, the Agent shall give notice to the Lenders that a Loan has been requested or deemed requested by Borrower to be made in connection with a drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case a Loan advance shall be immediately made to Borrower by all Lenders (without giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 12.2) pro rata based on the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 12.2) and the proceeds thereof shall be paid directly by the Agent to the Issuing Bank for application to the respective Letter of Credit Obligations.

(b) Each such Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make its Commitment Percentage of each such Loan immediately upon any such request or deemed request in the amount, in the manner and on the date specified in the preceding sentence notwithstanding: (i) the amount of such borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for advances of Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Article XI are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) failure for any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loan to be made by the time otherwise required hereunder, (v) whether the date of such borrowing is a date on which Loans are otherwise permitted to be made hereunder or (vi) any termination of the Commitments relating thereto immediately prior to or contemporaneously with such borrowing.

(c) In the event that any Loan cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with respect to Borrower), then each such Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date such borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Issuing Bank such participation in the outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Letter of Credit Obligations ratably (based upon the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 12.2)), provided that at the time any purchase of participation pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Issuing Bank, to the extent not paid to the Issuing Bank by Borrower in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2.3, interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which such borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to, if paid within two (2) Business Days of the date of the Loan advance, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Prime Rate.

2.2.6 Renewal, Extension. The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.

2.2.7 Uniform Customs and Practices. The Issuing Bank may provide that the Letters of Credit shall be subject to The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as published as of the date of issue by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “UCP”), in which case the UCP may be incorporated by reference therein and deemed in all respects to be a part thereof.

2.2.8 Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Bank’s Duties.

(a) In addition to their other obligations under this Section 2.2, Borrower agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Issuing Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(b) As between Borrower and the Issuing Bank, Borrower shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. The Issuing Bank shall not be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (iv) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; and (v) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to Borrower. It is the intention of the parties that this Credit Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the Issuing Bank against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by Borrower, including, without limitation, any and all Government Acts. The Issuing Bank shall not, in any way, be liable for any failure by the Issuing Bank or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of the Issuing Bank.

(d) Nothing in this Section 2.2.8 is intended to limit the reimbursement obligations of Borrower contained in Section 2.2.4 above. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. No act or omission of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of the Issuing Bank to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2.8, Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Issuing Bank in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Bank (i) arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, unless such payment is prohibited by any law, regulation, court order or decree.

2.2.9 Responsibility of Issuing Bank. It is expressly understood and agreed that the obligations of the Issuing Bank hereunder to the Lenders are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and that the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent set forth herein have been satisfied unless it shall have acquired actual knowledge that any such condition precedent has not been satisfied; provided, however, that nothing set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Lender to recover from the Issuing Bank any amounts made available by such Lender to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.2 in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank.

2.2.10 Conflict with Letter of Credit Documents. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any Letter of Credit Document (including any letter of credit application), this Agreement shall control.

Section 2.3

Commitments.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, each of the Lenders severally agrees to lend to Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the Closing Date and before the Expiration Date, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loans and Letter of Credit obligations as may be requested or deemed requested by Borrower.

Section 2.4

Use of Proceeds.

Borrower agrees to use advances under the Line (a) for working capital and general corporate purposes (including without limitation, the payment of distributions or dividends to partners or shareholders of the Credit Parties, as the case may be), (b) to acquire additional hotels or an interest therein, and for no other purpose.

Section 2.5

Advances of the Line.

Borrower shall give Agent not less than two (2) Business Days prior written notice of a proposed advance of the Line (each a “Line Request”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Each Line Request shall (a) state the principal amount to be advanced and the use of the proceeds of the Line being requested (including any acquisition to which such use relates), (b) include a description of the economics of any acquisition, (c) designate the Interest Rate Option (including the designation of the applicable Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan as 30, 60, 90 or 180 days) and (d) contain such other information as Agent may request in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. All advances requested by Borrower must be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Provided that all of the conditions precedent to Agent making such advance have occurred, and provided further that the making of such advance will not cause Borrower to be in default of the covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation Article VII herein), Agent shall make the proceeds of such advance available to Borrower by crediting the amount thereof to Borrower’s deposit account with Bank.

Section 2.6

(b)

Type A Loans shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i)

The aggregate amount of all Type A Loans outstanding shall not exceed at any time the lesser of:

(B)

An amount that would cause the Borrower to exceed the Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (the “Borrowing Base”).

(ii)

Each Type A Loan shall be repaid in full on or prior to the earlier to occur of: (A) the date that is eighteen (18) months following the date of the advance of such Type A Loan by Lenders (the “Due Date”) and (B) the Expiration Date; provided, however, that Borrower’s failure to repay a Type A Loan when due shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 12.1(a)(i) hereof only if Borrower fails to repay such Type A Loan in full on or prior to the earlier to occur of: (x) the date that is six (6) months after the Due Date and (y) the Expiration Date.

(iii)

Notwithstanding the above conditions, Borrower may borrow, as determined by the Required Lenders in their discretion, Type A Loans in an aggregate principal amount up to the lesser of (A) one hundred percent (100%) of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property or (B) the Committed Amount for a period expiring upon the earlier to occur of (x) the date that is ninety (90) days after the date such Type A Loan is advanced and (y) the Expiration Date.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST RATES

Section 3.1

Interest on the Line.

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2, each Loan shall bear interest as follows:

3.1.1 Prime Rate Loans. During such periods as a Loan is a Prime Rate Loan, each such Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the Prime Rate minus one-half of one percent (0.50%); and

3.1.2 LIBOR Rate Loans. During such periods as a Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, each such LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate plus two and one-quarter percent (2.25%).

Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each related Interest Payment Date.

Section 3.2

Default Interest.

From the maturity of the obligations evidenced by the Line Note, as well as upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance and all other sums due hereunder and under the Line Note shall bear interest at a rate which is three percent (3%) in excess of the non-default rate otherwise set forth herein (“Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced by the Line Note as set forth above, including after entry of a judgment or judgments against Borrower, and said judgment or judgments shall bear interest at the Default Rate until satisfied in full.

Section 3.3

Calculation.

Interest will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 3.4

Limitation of Interest to Maximum Lawful Rate.

In no event will the rate of interest payable hereunder exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law (including the choice of law rules) and any interest paid in excess of the permitted rate will be refunded to Borrower. Such refund will be made by application of the excessive amount of interest paid against any sums outstanding hereunder and will be applied in such order as Agent may determine. If the excessive amount of interest paid exceeds the sums outstanding, the portion exceeding the sums outstanding will be refunded in cash by Agent. Any such crediting or refunding will not cure or waive any default by Borrower. Borrower agrees, however, that in determining whether or not any interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate permitted by law, any non-principal payment, including without limitation prepayment fees and late charges, will be deemed to the extent permitted by law to be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS AND FEES; COLLATERAL

Section 4.1

Interest Payments on the Line.

Borrower will pay interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Loan on the Interest Payment Date for such Loan.

Section 4.2

Principal Payments on the Line; Prepayments.

(a) Borrower will pay the outstanding principal balance of the Line, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and any other sums due pursuant to the terms hereof, on the Expiration Date.

(b) Borrower may prepay any Loan in full or in part at any time upon not less than two (2) Business Days prior via written notice to the Agent, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that upon the prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loan, Borrower shall be subject to a breakage fee as set forth in subparagraph (c) below. In addition, upon the prepayment of any Loan subject to a Hedging Agreement, Borrower may be obligated to pay an unwind fee related to such Hedging Agreement and such unwind fee shall be governed by the Hedging Agreement. Any prepayment shall include accrued and unpaid interest to the date of the prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and all other sums due and payable hereunder including, without limitation, payment of expenses including those costs associated with the termination of derivative transactions. Nothing herein shall be deemed to alter or affect any obligations that Borrower may have to a Lender or Hedging Agreement Provider under any Hedging Agreement. All costs, expenses, and indemnity obligations that may be incurred by a Lender as a result of any default under, or termination of, a Hedging Agreement shall be: (i) subject to immediate reimbursement by Borrower; and (ii) secured by the Collateral Documents.

(c) The Borrower agrees to hold Lenders harmless from any loss or expense which the Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of the following:

(i) the failure of the Borrower to make any required payment of the principal amount of any LIBOR Rate Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof);

(ii) the failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Line Request or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

(iii) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with Section 4.2(b);

(iv) the prepayment (other than pursuant to Section 4.2(b)) of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; or

(v) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Prime Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period.

Such breakage fee shall include any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or re-employment of funds obtained by the Agent to maintain the LIBOR Rate Loan provided hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Agent, each LIBOR Rate Loan made by the Agent (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR used in determining the interest rate for such LIBOR Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Loan is in fact so funded.

Section 4.3

Facility Fee.

Borrower shall pay to Lenders a facility fee in the amount set forth in the Fee Letter, to be paid to Agent upon execution of this Agreement and disbursed to Lenders in such amounts as Agent and Lenders have agreed.

Section 4.4

Arrangement Fee.

Borrower shall pay to Bank, as Agent, an arrangement fee in the amount set forth in the Fee Letter. The arrangement fee shall be paid to Bank not later than June 30, 2006.

Section 4.5

Unused Facility Fee.

Borrower shall pay to Agent for the account of the Lenders at the end of each calendar quarter, as partial compensation for extending the Committed Amount to Borrower, an unused facility fee which shall be determined by multiplying (a) the positive difference, if any, between (i) the Committed Amount in effect at such time and (ii) the average daily Loans of Borrower and the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding during such quarter by (b) one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) for the number of days in such quarter.

Section 4.6

Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) In consideration of the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, Borrower promises to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) on such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit, which fee shall be equal to 0.75% of such available amount, computed at a per annum rate for each day from the date of issuance to the date of expiration. The Letter of Credit Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter.

(b) In addition to the Letter of Credit Fee payable pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, Borrower promises to pay to the Issuing Bank, for its own account without sharing by the other Lenders, the letter of credit fronting and negotiation fees agreed to by Borrower and the Issuing Bank from time to time and the customary charges from time to time of the Issuing Bank with respect to the issuance, amendment, transfer, administration, cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, such Letters of Credit (collectively, the “Issuing Bank Fees”).

Section 4.7

Late Charge.

In the event that Borrower fails to pay any principal, interest or other fees or expenses payable hereunder for a period of at least ten (10) days after the same shall become due, in addition to paying such sums, Borrower will pay to Agent a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such past due payment as compensation for the expenses incident to such past due payment.

Section 4.8

Payment Method.

Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent to debit all payments required to be made by Borrower hereunder or otherwise under the Line, on the date due, from any deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank (other than escrow funds owned legally by Borrower but held in escrow for the beneficial interest of another Person). Otherwise, Borrower will be obligated to make such payments directly to Agent. All payments are to be made in immediately available funds. If Agent accepts payment in any other form, such payment shall not be deemed to have been made until the funds comprising such payment have actually been received by or made available to Agent.

Section 4.9

Application of Payments.

Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, any and all payments on account of the Line will be applied first to any amounts due to Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, other than principal and interest on the Line; second to accrued interest due under the Line; and third, to outstanding principal under the Line. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, any and all payments on account of the Line will be applied to accrued and unpaid interest, outstanding principal and other sums due hereunder or under the Loan Documents, in such order as Bank, in its discretion, elects. If Borrower makes a payment or payments and such payment or payments, or any part thereof, are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or are required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other person under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or payments, the obligations or part thereof hereunder intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made.

Section 4.10

Loan Account.

Agent will open and maintain on its books a loan account with respect to advances made, repayments, prepayments, the computation and payment of interest and fees and the computation and final payment of all other amounts due and sums paid to Agent under this Agreement. Except in the case of manifest error in computation, such account will be conclusive and binding on the Borrower as to the amount at any time due to Agent from Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes.

Section 4.11

Indemnity; Loss of Margin.

(a) Borrower will indemnify Lenders against any loss or expense which Lenders sustain or incur as a consequence of an Event of Default, including, without limitation, any failure of Borrower to pay when due (at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, fee or any other amount due under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If a Lender sustains or incurs any such loss or expense it will from time to time notify Agent in writing of the amount determined in good faith by Lender to be necessary to indemnify Lender for the loss or expense and Agent shall provide such notice to Borrower. Such amount will be due and payable by Borrower to such Lender within ten (10) days after presentation by Lender of a statement setting forth a brief explanation of and Lender’s calculation of such amount, which statement shall be conclusively deemed correct absent manifest error. Any amount payable to the Lenders under this Section will bear interest at the default rate payable under the Line from the due date until paid, both before and after judgment.

(b) In the event that any present or future law, rule, regulation, treaty or official directive or the interpretation or application thereof by any central bank, monetary authority or governmental authority, or the compliance with any guideline or request of any central bank, monetary authority or governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

(i) subjects a Lender to any tax with respect to any amounts payable under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by Borrower or otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except for taxes on the overall net income and/or revenues of Bank imposed by the United States of America, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, or any political subdivision of either of them); or

(ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any deposit insurance, reserve, special deposit, capital maintenance, capital adequacy, or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans or advances or commitment to make loans or advances by, Lenders; or

(iii) imposes upon a Lender any other condition with respect to advances or extensions of credit or the commitment to make advances or extensions of credit under this Agreement, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the costs of such Lender, reduce the income receivable by or return on equity of such Lender or impose any expense upon such Lender with respect to any advances or extensions of credit or commitments to make advances or extensions of credit under this Agreement, such Lender shall so notify Agent in writing and Agent shall provide such notice to Borrower. Borrower agrees to pay such Lender the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income, reduced return on equity or capital, or additional expense within ten (10) days after presentation by such Lender of a statement concerning such increase in cost, reduction in income, reduced return on equity or capital, or additional expense. Such statement shall set forth a brief explanation of the amount and such Lender’s calculation of the amount (in determining such amount the Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods), which statement shall be conclusively deemed correct absent manifest error. If the amount set forth in such statement is not paid within ten (10) days after such presentation of such statement, interest will be payable on the unpaid amount at the default rate payable under the Line from the due date until paid, both before and after judgment.

Section 4.12

Extension of Expiration Date.

Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower, at least ninety (90) days prior to the Expiration Date and at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of each subsequent twelve (12) month period the Line of Credit is provided to Borrower, may request in writing to Agent that Lenders extend the Expiration Date then in effect for an additional period of one (1) year. In the event Borrower requests an extension of the Expiration Date in accordance with the preceding sentence, Agent will notify Borrower not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date and each subsequent anniversary of the Closing Date that (a) Lenders have extended the Expiration Date then in effect by twelve (12) months, or (b) Lenders will not extend the Expiration Date then in effect. A failure by Agent to send any such notice shall be deemed to be a determination by Lenders not to extend the Expiration Date then in effect. In the event Lenders determine that they will extend the Expiration Date then in effect, Borrower shall, at least five (5) days prior to the then current Expiration Date, pay to Lenders an extension fee in the amount of one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the Committed Amount, to be paid to Agent for the account of each Lender. If Borrower shall fail to pay such extension fee to Agent as and when required, Lenders’ extension of the Expiration Date shall be deemed to be canceled and shall be null and void and of no further force or effect and the Expiration Date then in effect shall continue as if Agent had not provided any notice of extension.

Section 4.13

As security for the performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Notes, and as security for the performance of the Guaranties and all other liabilities of Borrower to Lenders, Borrower and Guarantors are, contemporaneously with the execution hereof, granting to Agent security interests, collateral assignments and mortgage liens, as applicable, in and to the Collateral.

(b) Borrower shall pay all costs and fees of Agent and Lenders in connection with the addition of any Substitute Collateral, Additional Collateral, Replacement Guarantor or Additional Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the payment of lien searches, title insurance, appraisals, environmental reports, recording fees, mortgage satisfaction fees, attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred directly by Agent or any Lender or payable to third parties in connection therewith.

FORM OF LINE NOTE

[Date]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, HERSHA HOSPITALITY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Virginia limited partnership (“Borrower”), promises to pay to the order of _____________________ (“Bank”), at the place and times provided in the Revolving Credit Loan and Security Agreement of even date herewith among Borrower, Hersha Hospitality Trust, as Guarantor, the other Guarantors party thereto, and Bank and the other Lenders party thereto (the “Loan Agreement”), the principal sum of _________________ Dollars ($______________) or, if less, the aggregate principal amount (as shown by Bank’s records which shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof) outstanding under the Line (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) extended by Bank to Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, such principal sum, together with any other sums that may be due hereunder, unless sooner paid as required by the terms of the Loan Agreement, to be paid in full upon the Expiration Date.

This Note and the other Line Notes collectively amend and restate that certain Revolving Line of Credit Note dated August 18, 2004 by Maker in favor of Sovereign Bank (“Sovereign”) in the principal amount of $35,000,000 (the “Original Note”), which was assigned by Sovereign to Commerce Bank, N.A., as Agent on behalf of Lenders, pursuant to that certain Assignment of Loan Documents of even date herewith between Sovereign and Agent. The indebtedness evidenced by the Original Note has not been repaid, discharged, extinguished or satisfied, but the terms of the Original Note have been amended and restated in their entirety as set forth herein and are superseded by the terms hereof and all of such indebtedness for all purposes is continued, replaced and substituted and shall constitute indebtedness outstanding under the Line Notes.

Borrower further promises to pay to the order of Bank interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Line from the respective dates on which portions of the Line are disbursed until such principal amounts have been repaid in full, at the rates provided in the Loan Agreement.

Upon the Expiration Date, as well as upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement), until final payment of all sums owed under this Note, the outstanding principal balance and all other sums due hereunder shall bear interest at a rate which is three percent (3%) in excess of the non-default rate otherwise set forth in the Loan Agreement with respect to the Line (“Default Rate”). Notwithstanding the provisions of 42 Pa.C.S.A. §8101, or any other statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby as set forth above, including after entry of a judgment or judgments against Borrower, and said judgment or judgments shall bear interest at the Default Rate until satisfied in full.

In no event will the rate of interest payable hereunder exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law (including the choice of law rules) and any interest paid in excess of the permitted rate will be refunded to Borrower. Such refund will be made by application of the excess amount of interest paid against any sums outstanding hereunder and will be applied in such order as Bank may determine. If the excess amount of interest paid exceeds the sums outstanding, the portion exceeding the sums outstanding will be refunded in cash by Bank. Any such crediting or refunding will not cure or waive any default by Borrower. Borrower agrees, however, that in determining whether or not any interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate permitted by law, any non-principal payment, including without limitation prepayment fees and late charges, will be deemed to the extent permitted by law to be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.

All payments of principal and interest and all other amounts due hereunder shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding for any reason whatsoever.

In the event that any scheduled payment of principal or interest or any other amount due hereunder shall be overdue for a period in excess of ten (10) days after the same shall become due, Borrower shall pay to Bank a late charge of five percent (5%) of the overdue amount to cover the additional expense incident to such delinquency.

This Note is one of the Line Notes referred to in, is issued pursuant to, and is payable in accordance with the Loan Agreement the terms and conditions of which are incorporated herein by reference. Reference is made to the Loan Agreement as to rights and obligations of prepayment. The holder of this Note is entitled to all the benefits of the Loan Agreement.

From the Expiration Date, as well as upon the occurrence, and only during the continuance, of any Event of Default (after all applicable grace and cure periods) set forth in the Loan Agreement (including, without limitation, the failure by the Borrower to pay any installment of interest on this Note when due), the entire unpaid balance of principal and interest of this Note shall, at the option of Bank, be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower to the extent waiveable under applicable law or public policy, and Bank may forthwith exercise or cause to be exercised the warrant of attorney to confess judgment set forth herein, in addition to such rights and remedies as may herein be provided or any of the rights or remedies provided in the Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement), or which may be available to Bank by law, without further stay, any law, usage or custom to the contrary notwithstanding.

BORROWER DOES HEREBY AUTHORIZE AND EMPOWER THE CLERK OF COURT OR ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA OR ELSEWHERE, AFTER THE OCCURRENCE AND ONLY DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, TO APPEAR FOR AND CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER AND IN FAVOR OF BANK, ITS SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS, AS OF ANY TERM, PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE, WITH OR WITHOUT DECLARATION, FOR EACH AND ALL OF THE FOLLOWING:

(A) THE UNPAID PRINCIPAL SUM EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE WITH ALL OF THE ACCRUED AND UNPAID INTEREST HEREON, WHETHER BASIC INTEREST, DEFAULT INTEREST AT THE DEFAULT RATE, OR BOTH, AS HEREIN PROVIDED;

(B) ALL OTHER SUMS AS ARE DUE AND PAYABLE TO BANK UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE OR UNDER THE TERMS OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHETHER BY ACCELERATION OR OTHERWISE;

(C) THE AGGREGATE OF ALL SUMS EXPENDED BY BANK AT ANY TIME AND FROM TIME TO TIME, WHETHER PERMITTED UNDER THE TERMS OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, PERMITTED BY LAW, OR PERMITTED BY STATUTE, (i) TO EXTINGUISH OR KEEP CURRENT, AS THE CASE MAY BE, ENCUMBRANCES AND LIENS ON THE COLLATERAL (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE LOAN AGREEMENT), (ii) TO PRESERVE, PROTECT, DEFEND AND MAINTAIN THE COLLATERAL, TO PRESERVE, RESTORE AND MAINTAIN THE COLLATERAL, TO PAY INSURANCE PREMIUMS OF ANY NATURE BENEFITTING OR RELATING TO THE COLLATERAL, (iii) TO PRESERVE, PROTECT, DEFEND AND MAINTAIN THE LIEN PRIORITY OF THE BANK'S SECURITY INTEREST IN THE COLLATERAL, AND/OR (iv) DUE TO AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THIS NOTE OR UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS; AND

(D) THE COSTS OF SUIT AND AN ATTORNEY'S FEE OF FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE SUM OF ALL OF THE ITEMS (A), (B) AND (C) ABOVE FOR COLLECTION, WITH RELEASE OF ALL ERRORS, AND ON WHICH JUDGMENT BANK MAY ISSUE OR CAUSE TO BE ISSUED AN EXECUTION OR EXECUTIONS, WAIVING (TO THE EXTENT WAIVEABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW OR PUBLIC POLICY) (X) APPRAISEMENT AS TO ANY PROPERTY LEVIED UPON BY VIRTUE OF ANY SUCH EXECUTION, (Y) ANY RIGHT TO A HEARING BEFORE EXECUTION ON ANY SUCH JUDGMENT, AND (Z) ALL EXEMPTIONS FROM LEVY AND SALE OF ANY PROPERTY WHICH NOW OR HEREAFTER IS EXEMPT UNDER ANY ACT OF THE STATE WHEREIN THE JUDGMENT IS ENTERED. NO SINGLE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT AND POWER TO CONFESS JUDGMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO EXHAUST THIS POWER, WHETHER OR NOT ANY SUCH EXERCISE SHALL BE STRICKEN, VACATED, REMOVED OR OTHERWISE HELD BY ANY COURT TO BE INVALID, VOIDABLE OR VOID, BUT THIS POWER SHALL CONTINUE UNDIMINISHED AND MAY BE EXERCISED FROM TIME TO TIME AS OFTEN AS PAYEE SHALL ELECT UNTIL THIS NOTE AND ALL SUMS DUE HEREUNDER SHALL BE PAID IN FULL, AND BORROWER HAS PERFORMED ALL OF THE OTHER PROVISIONS THEREUNDER AND/OR UNDER THE TERMS OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. BORROWER HEREBY AUTHORIZES BANK TO RE-ASSESS DAMAGES FROM TIME TO TIME AND AS OFTEN AS BANK DEEMS NECESSARY SO THAT ANY AND ALL JUDGMENTS CONFESSED HEREUNDER SHALL INCLUDE ALL SUMS LISTED UNDER SUBPARAGRAPHS (A) THROUGH (D) ABOVE AS THE SAME ARE INCURRED FROM TIME TO TIME, EVEN AFTER ENTRY OF JUDGMENT UNDER THIS WARRANT OF ATTORNEY.

All written notices to be given by either party to the other shall be sent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Agreement.

Borrower consents to the in personam jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in connection with any claim or dispute arising under or in connection with this Note. If any action in connection with any such claim is commenced by the Bank against Borrower in any such court, Borrower also agrees that service of process may be made on Borrower by certified or registered mail addressed to Borrower at its address specified in the Loan Agreement.

Borrower, and the Bank by its acceptance of this Note, waive trial by jury in any action by or against the Borrower or the Bank, as the case may be, in connection with any claim or dispute arising under or in connection with this Note or any other instrument or document delivered hereunder.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Except where the context otherwise requires, the term “Bank” shall be deemed to include any subsequent holder of this Note.

This Note shall be binding upon Borrower and its successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS NOTE IS ACCOMPANIED BY AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONFESS JUDGMENT, THAT IT HAS CONSULTED LEGAL COUNSEL WITH RESPECT THERETO (OR KNOWINGLY WAIVED ITS RIGHT TO DO SO), AND THAT IT UNDERSTANDS THAT THE EXERCISE BY BANK OF THE CONFESSION WILL RESULT IN THE ENTRY OF A JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER AND COULD RESULT IN THE SALE OR ATTACHMENT OF, OR EXECUTION UPON, BORROWER'S PROPERTY (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION PERSONAL PROPERTY AND REAL PROPERTY) IN EACH CASE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE OR THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A HEARING.
