Ladies and Gentlemen:

Host Marriott, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company” or the “Operating Partnership”), proposes to issue and sell to the initial purchasers named in Schedule B hereto (each, an Initial Purchaser, and collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”) for which Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), an aggregate of $650,000,000 principal amount of 6³/8% Series N Senior Notes due 2015 (the “Series N Notes”), which notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Guarantors”). The Series N Notes (and related guarantees) are to be issued pursuant to the provisions of the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of August 5, 1998 by and among HMH Properties, Inc., the Guarantors (as named therein) and The Bank of New York, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”) (the “Base Indenture”) and the Sixteenth Supplemental Indenture (the “Sixteenth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined in Section 4 below), by and among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee.

For purposes of this agreement, the term “Securities” means the $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Series N Notes, together with the guarantees (the “Guarantees”) thereof by each of the Guarantors. The Securities and the Indenture are more fully described in the Offering Memorandum (as hereinafter defined). Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the respective meanings specified in the Offering Memorandum, unless otherwise set forth herein.

1. Offering Memorandum. The Securities will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Company and the Guarantors have prepared a final offering memorandum, dated March 3, 2005 relating to the Series N Notes and the Guarantees (together with any documents incorporated by reference therein (excluding any supplement or amendment after the date hereof), the “Offering Memorandum”).

Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required pursuant to the Indenture, the Series N Notes (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear the following legend:

“THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE HOLDER:

5. Agreements of the Company and the Guarantors. Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees with each of you that:

(a) It will advise you promptly and, if requested by any of you, confirm such advice in writing, (i) of the issuance by any state securities commission of any stop order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any Series N Notes for offering or sale in any jurisdiction designated by the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 5(e) hereof, or the initiation of any proceeding by any state securities commission or any other federal or state regulatory authority for such purpose and (ii) of the happening of any event during the period referred to in Section 5(c) below that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented from time to time) untrue or that requires any additions to or changes in the Offering Memorandum in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Each of the Company and each of the Guarantors shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or order suspending the qualification or exemption of the Securities under any state securities or Blue Sky laws and, if at any time any state securities commission or other federal or state regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption of the Securities under any state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company and the Guarantors shall use every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time.

(b) It will furnish the Initial Purchasers and those persons identified as Eligible Purchasers by the Initial Purchasers to the Company as many copies of the Offering Memorandum, and any amendments or supplements thereto, as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request for the time period specified in Section 5(c). Subject to the accuracy of the Initial Purchasers’ representations and warranties and the Initial Purchasers’ compliance with their agreements set forth in Section 7 hereof, the Company and the Guarantors consent to the use of the Offering Memorandum, and any amendments and supplements thereto required pursuant hereto, by the Initial Purchasers in connection with Exempt Resales.

(c) If during such period as in the opinion of counsel for the Initial Purchasers an Offering Memorandum is required to be delivered in connection with Exempt Resales by the Initial Purchasers, it will (i) not make any amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum of which the Initial Purchasers shall not previously have been advised or to which the Initial Purchasers shall reasonably object after being so advised and (ii) prepare promptly upon the Initial Purchasers’ reasonable request, any amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum which may be necessary or advisable in connection with such Exempt Resales.

(d) If, during the period referred to in Section 5(c) above, any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it becomes necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing as of the date of the Offering Memorandum, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Memorandum to comply with any applicable law, it will promptly prepare an appropriate amendment or supplement to such Offering Memorandum so that the statements therein, as so amended or supplemented, will not, in the light of the circumstances when it is so delivered, be misleading, or so that such Offering Memorandum will comply with applicable law, and furnish to the Initial Purchasers such number of copies thereof as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request.

(e) Prior to the sale of all Securities pursuant to Exempt Resales as contemplated hereby, it will cooperate with the Initial Purchasers and counsel to the Initial Purchasers in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and

sale to the Initial Purchasers and pursuant to Exempt Resales under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Initial Purchasers may request and continue such registration or qualification in effect so long as required for Exempt Resales and file such consents to service of process or other documents as may be necessary in order to effect such registration or qualification; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to general consent to service of process or taxation in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so subject.

(f) Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D of the Act) in connection with the offering of the Securities or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Act.

For so long as the Initial Purchasers are making a market in the Notes, but in no event, more than five years from the date hereof, the Company will furnish to you, upon request and as soon as available, copies of all such reports and information, together with such other documents, reports and information as shall be furnished by the Company to the holders of the Notes, and such other information concerning the Company and its subsidiaries as you reasonably may request.

(i) So long as any of the Securities remain outstanding and during any period in which the Company and the Guarantors are not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, upon the request of any holders of Notes it will furnish to such holder and to any prospective purchaser of Series N Notes from such holder, the information (“Rule 144A Information”) required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act; provided, however, that the Company’s obligations under this Section 5(i) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date

the Exchange Offer is concluded and the exchange of the Exchange Securities for the Securities tendered therein is consummated or (ii) the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Company shall be obligated to deliver, upon request, any information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act to prospective purchasers of the Securities during any period during which, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Shelf Registration Statement is required to be effective, but such effectiveness has been suspended or revoked for any reason.

(a) Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each of the Initial Purchasers, (ii) each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any of the Initial Purchasers (any of the persons referred to in this clause (ii) being hereinafter referred to as a “controlling person”) and (iii) the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any of the Initial Purchasers or any

controlling person (any person referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) may hereinafter be referred to as an “Indemnified Person”) to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, actions and expenses (including without limitation, and as incurred, reimbursement of all reasonable costs of investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any claim, action, investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to any Indemnified Person) directly or indirectly caused by, related to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses caused by an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that is made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchasers’ Information (as defined in Section 6(a) above). The Company and the Guarantors shall notify you promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any claim, proceeding (including any governmental investigation) or litigation in connection with the matters addressed by this Agreement which involves the Company, any Guarantor or an Indemnified Person.

(b) In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be brought or asserted against any of the Indemnified Persons with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company or any Guarantor, the applicable Initial Purchaser with respect to such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing (provided that, the failure to so to notify the Company or any Guarantor shall not relieve it from any liability that it may other wise have to any Indemnified Person under subsection (a) of this Section 8 except to the extent that the Company or any Guarantor suffers actual prejudice as result of such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Company or any Guarantor from any obligation to provide reimbursement and contribution to any Indemnified Person) and the Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Persons and payment of all fees and expenses in connection therewith. Such Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person, unless: (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Company or the Guarantors; (ii) the Company has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Company or any Guarantor, or any affiliate of the Company or such Guarantor and such Indemnified Person shall have been reasonably advised by counsel that either (x) there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those

available to the Company or any Guarantor or such affiliate of the Company or such Guarantor or (y) a conflict may exist between such Indemnified Person and the Company or any Guarantor or such affiliate of the Company or such Guarantor (in which case the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person, it being understood, however, that the Company and the Guarantors shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Persons, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Initial Purchasers and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). The Company and Guarantors shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the Company’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and each of the Company and the Guarantors agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of any settlement of any action effected with the written consent of the Company or a Guarantor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of each Indemnified Person affected thereby (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes (i) an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person affected thereby from all liability arising out of such action, claim, litigation or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(c) Each of the Initial Purchasers agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Guarantors and their respective directors, officers and any person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, the Guarantors and the officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of each such person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to each of the Indemnified Persons, but only with respect to claims and actions based on the Initial Purchasers’ Information relating to such Initial Purchaser. In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be brought or asserted against the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective directors or officers, or any such controlling person based on the Offering Memorandum in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Initial Purchaser pursuant to the foregoing sentence, such Initial Purchaser shall have the rights and duties given to the Company and the Guarantors by Section 8(b) above (except that if the

Company shall have assumed the defense thereof, such Initial Purchaser may, but shall not be required to, employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Initial Purchaser), and the Company, the Guarantors, their directors, any such officers and each such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the Indemnified Person by Section 8(b) above.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party or is insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying parties and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and any of the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (net of discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Offering Memorandum. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The indemnity and contribution obligations set forth herein shall be in addition to any liability or obligation such party may otherwise have to any indemnified party.

The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, none of the Initial Purchasers (and its related Indemnified Persons) shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discount applicable to the Notes purchased by such Initial Purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages which such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Notes purchased by each of the Initial Purchasers hereunder and not joint.

9. Conditions of Initial Purchasers’ Obligations. The several obligations of the Initial Purchasers to purchase the Notes under this Agreement are subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:

10. Defaults. If on the Closing Date, any of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it has agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that such defaulting Initial Purchaser(s) agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of such Securities that all of the Initial Purchasers are obligated to purchase on such Closing Date, each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase the amount of the Securities that such defaulting Initial Purchaser(s) agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date at a purchase price to the Company equal to 98.5% of the principal amount at maturity of such Securities; provided that in no event shall the number of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to Section 2 hereof be increased pursuant to

This Agreement may be terminated at any time on or prior to the Closing Date by you by notice to the Company if any of the following has occurred (i) subsequent to the date of this Agreement, any Material Adverse Change occurs, which, in the judgment of the Representatives, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes or to enforce contracts for sale of the Notes, (ii) any new outbreak or material escalation of hostilities or other national or international calamity or crisis or material adverse change in the financial markets of the United States or elsewhere, or any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency if the effect of such outbreak, escalation, calamity, crisis or emergency would, in the judgment of the Representatives, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Notes, (iii) any suspension or limitation of trading generally in securities on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market or in the over-the-counter markets or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange or markets, or a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, (iv) any declaration of a general banking moratorium by Federal, New York or Maryland authorities, (v) the taking of any action by any Federal, state or local government or agency in respect of its monetary or fiscal affairs that in your judgment has a material adverse effect on the financial markets in the United States, and would, in the judgment of the Representatives, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, (vi) the enactment, publication, decree, or other promulgation of any Federal or state statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other governmental authority which would, in the judgment of the Representatives, have a Material Adverse Effect, (vii) the Securities shall have received a rating of less than Ba3 with a stable

outlook from Xxxxx’x or less than B+ with a stable outlook from S&P, or (viii) the Securities shall have been placed on any “watch list” for possible downgrading by Xxxxx’x or S&P, provided that in the case of any such “watch list” placement, termination shall be permitted only if such placement would, in the judgment of the Representatives, make it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities or materially impair the investment quality of the Securities.

The indemnities and contribution provisions and the other agreements, representations and warranties of the Company, the Guarantors, their respective officers and directors and the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities, regardless of (i) any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any of the Initial Purchasers or by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor, its officers or directors or any controlling person thereof, (ii) acceptance of the Securities and payment for them hereunder and (iii) termination of this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchasers pursuant to clauses (i) or (vii) of the second paragraph of this Section 11 or because of the failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors agree to reimburse you for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by you. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the Company and the Guarantors shall be liable for all expenses which they have agreed to pay pursuant to Section 5(j) hereof.
