Other than the charges for the national and regional reservation system services, the charges for the Chain Services which are listed in clause (i) above shall be included in the Base Management Fee; the charges for the national and regional reservation system services shall be paid from Gross Revenues as Deductions.

1.04 Employees

All personnel employed at the Hotel shall at all times from and after the Effective Date be the employees of Manager (or one of its Affiliates). Manager shall have absolute discretion with respect to all personnel employed at the Hotel, including, without limitation, decisions regarding hiring, promoting, transferring, compensating, supervising, terminating, directing and training all employees at the Hotel, and, generally, establishing and maintaining all policies relating to employment. Manager shall use best efforts to notify Owner as soon as practical of any anticipated changes in the persons who occupy the positions of General Manager and Director of

Sales and Marketing for the Hotel; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that any failure by Manager to provide such notice shall neither constitute an “Event of Default” under this Agreement nor constitute a material breach of this Agreement. Manager shall decide which, if any, of the employees of the Hotel shall reside at the Hotel, and shall be permitted to provide free accommodations and amenities to its employees and representatives living at or visiting the Hotel in connection with its management or operation. No person shall otherwise be given gratuitous accommodations or services without prior joint approval of Owner and Manager except in accordance with usual practices of the hotel and travel industry.

1.05 Owner’s Right to Inspect

1.06 Regular Meetings

At Owner’s request, Owner and Manager shall have quarterly meetings at the Hotel and at mutually convenient times. Manager shall be represented at such meetings by the general manager of the Hotel and such other personnel as the general manager may deem appropriate. The purpose of the meetings shall be to discuss the performance of the Hotel and other related issues, including any variations from the Annual Operating Projection for the preceding quarter.

1.07 System Standards.

Owner shall take such actions consistent with this Agreement as are necessary to enable the Hotel to comply with the System Standards, and Manager shall have discretion in operating the Hotel in order that the Hotel will comply with System Standards.

1.08 Limitations on Manager’s Authority

Manager shall not, without Owner’s prior written approval, enter into any FF&E Lease if: (i) the fair market value of the FF&E subject to such FF&E Lease at the time of entering into such FF&E Lease exceeds Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), as adjusted by the GDP Deflator; (ii) the fair market value of the FF&E subject to all FF&E Leases at the time of entering into such FF&E Lease exceeds Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) in the aggregate, as adjusted by the GDP Deflator; (iii) the FF&E subject to such FF&E Lease is FF&E that is not customarily leased in the hotel industry in the United States; or (iv) such FF&E Lease is on payment terms (including the amounts and schedule of payments) that would be materially more favorable to the lessor thereof than payment terms customary in the hotel industry in the United States for leases of similar FF&E.

ARTICLE II

TERM

2.01 Term

The “Term” of this Agreement shall consist of an “Initial Term” and the “Renewal Term(s).” The “Initial Term” shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue until the expiration of the thirtieth (30^th) full Fiscal Year after the expiration of the Fiscal Year in which the Effective Date occurs. Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically, and with no further action required by Owner or Manager, be renewed on the same terms and conditions for each of three (3) successive periods of ten (10) Fiscal Years each (“Renewal Term(s)”), unless Owner or Manager shall have given prior written notice to the other party of its election not to renew at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the then current Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be.

2.02 Performance Termination

A. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.02.B and Section 2.02.C. below, Owner shall have the option to terminate this Agreement and Owner, or an operator approved by Marriott in its sole discretion, shall enter into a Courtyard by Marriott franchise agreement in the form as shall have been published by Manager or its Affiliate in its then-current Uniform Franchise Offering Circular (the “Franchise Agreement”) if, with respect to any two (2) consecutive Fiscal Years (not including any portion of any Fiscal Year prior to the expiration of the fifth (5^th) full Fiscal Year after the Effective Date):

1. Operating Profit for each such Fiscal Year is less than the Performance Termination Threshold for such Fiscal Year; provided that, for purposes of this Section 2.02.A.1. only, Operating Profit shall be computed without deducting any Impositions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, real estate and personal property taxes in an amount not to exceed the amount of such taxes paid during the second (2^nd) Fiscal Year following the Effective Date shall be deducted in computing Operating Profit for purposes of this Section 2.02.A.1.; and

2. The Revenue Index of the Hotel during each such Fiscal Year is less than the Revenue Index Threshold for such Fiscal Year; and

3. The fact that the Hotel has not met the tests set forth in Section 2.02.A.1. and Section 2.02.A.2. is not wholly or partially the result of (x) an Extraordinary Event, (y) any major renovation of the Hotel which has been approved by Owner, or (z) any default by Owner. In the event that either clause (x), clause (y) or clause (z) has affected the ability of the Hotel to meet the tests set forth in Section 2.02.A.1. or Section 2.02.A.2. in any given Fiscal Year, then such Fiscal Year shall not be counted for purposes of the foregoing test, and shall be treated as not having occurred for purposes of determining whether the tests are satisfied for two consecutive Fiscal Years.

Owner shall exercise such option to terminate by serving written notice thereof on Manager no later than sixty (60) days after Owner’s receipt of the annual accounting under Section 4.01.B. for the second (2^nd) of the two (2) Fiscal Years referred to in Section 2.02.A. If Manager does not elect to avoid such Termination pursuant to Section 2.02.B. below, this Agreement shall terminate as of the end of the fourth (4^th) full Accounting Period following the later of the date on which Manager receives (i) the above-described notice from Owner and (ii) the Franchise Agreement executed by Owner or an operator approved by Marriott in its sole discretion; provided that such period of time shall be extended as required by applicable Legal Requirements pertaining to the termination of the employment of the employees at the Hotel unless the entity which succeeds Manager as the operator of the Hotel hires a sufficient number of the employees at the Hotel to avoid the occurrence, in connection with such Termination, of a “closing” under the WARN Act and otherwise complies with applicable Legal Requirements. Owner’s failure to exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.02.A. with respect to any given Fiscal Year shall not be deemed an estoppel or waiver of Owner’s right to terminate this Agreement with respect to subsequent Fiscal Years to which this Section 2.02.A. may apply.

B. Upon receipt of Owner’s written notice of Termination under Section 2.02.A., Manager shall have the option, to be exercised within sixty (60) days after receipt of said notice, to avoid such Termination by electing (in a written notice to Owner) to either (i) waive the payment of the Base Management Fee (beginning as of the first (1^st) day of the first (1^st) full Accounting Period following the date of such notice from Manager) until such time as the total cumulative amount of such waived Base Management Fee equals the total amount by which Operating Profit for each of the Fiscal Years in question (i.e., the two (2) Fiscal Years referred to in Section 2.02.A.1.) was less than the Performance Termination Threshold for such Fiscal Years; or (ii) pay to Owner the total amount by which Operating Profit for each of the Fiscal Years in question (i.e., the two (2) Fiscal Years referred to in Section 2.02.A.1.) was less than the Performance Termination Threshold for such Fiscal Years (the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be referred to as the “Cure Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such waived Base Management Fee shall be deemed paid by Owner for purposes of computing Operating Profit for the period during which such Base Management Fee is waived by Manager. In the event Manager makes a Cure Payment pursuant to this Section 2.02.B., the then prior two (2) Fiscal Years with respect to which such Cure Payment was made shall thereafter not be treated, for purposes of subsequent elections by Owner pursuant to Section 2.02.A., as Fiscal Years in which the circumstances described in Section 2.02.A.1. have occurred. If Manager exercises such option to make such Cure Payment, then the foregoing Owner’s election to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.02.A. shall be canceled and of no force or effect with respect to the two (2) Fiscal Years in question, and this Agreement shall not terminate. Such cancellation, however, shall not affect the right of Owner, as to each subsequent Fiscal Year to which Section 2.02.A. applies, to again elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02.A. (which subsequent election shall again be subject to Manager’s rights under this Section 2.02.B.). If Manager does not exercise its option to make a Cure Payment as aforesaid, then this Agreement shall be terminated as of the date set forth in Section 2.02.A.

C. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.02 to the contrary, if Manager does not elect to avoid such Termination within the sixty (60) day period set forth in Section 2.02.B, upon execution of the Franchise Agreement, Owner shall cause a third party operator approved by Manager in its sole discretion to operate the Hotel. Manager shall provide to Owner a list of at least five (5) operators acceptable to Manager within ten (10) Business Days after Owner’s request therefor. If Owner selects an operator from such list to operate the Hotel, Manager shall be deemed to have approved such operator.

ARTICLE III

COMPENSATION OF MANAGER

3.01 Management Fees

In consideration of services to be performed during the Term, Manager shall be paid the sum of the following as its management fees:

A. the Base Management Fee, which shall be retained by Manager from Gross Revenues; plus

B. the Incentive Management Fee.

3.02 Operating Profit

A. Operating Profit, to the extent available, shall be distributed to Owner and to Manager in the following order of priority:

1. An amount up to the maximum amount of Owner’s Priority shall be paid to Owner;

2. The Incentive Management Fee shall be paid to Manager; and

3. Any remaining balance of Operating Profit shall be paid to Owner.

Owner’s Priority is not cumulative from one Fiscal Year to the next, and to the extent the maximum amount of Owner’s Priority is unpaid in any Fiscal Year, such unpaid amount shall not accrue or otherwise be payable in any subsequent Fiscal Year.

B. To the extent of available Operating Profit with respect to each Accounting Period, Manager shall distribute a prorated portion of the Owner’s Priority to Owner for each such Accounting Period in accordance with Section 4.01.A., and shall be entitled to retain a prorated portion of the Incentive Management Fee, which shall be retained by Manager from Operating Profit in accordance with Section 3.02 and Section 4.01 for each such Accounting Period based on its good faith estimate of the Incentive Management Fee for the full Fiscal Year.

ARTICLE IV

ACCOUNTING, BOOKKEEPING AND BANK ACCOUNTS

4.01 Accounting, Distributions and Annual Reconciliation

A. Within twenty (20) days after the close of each Accounting Period, Manager shall deliver an interim accounting (the “Accounting Period Statement”) to Owner showing Gross Revenues, Deductions, Operating Profit, and applications and distributions thereof for the preceding Accounting Period. Manager shall transfer to Owner, with each Accounting Period Statement, any interim amounts due Owner, subject to Working Capital needs, and shall retain any interim amounts due Manager.

B. Calculations and payments of the Incentive Management Fee, the Base Management Fee, and distributions of Operating Profit made with respect to each Accounting Period shall be accounted for cumulatively within a Fiscal Year, but shall not be cumulative from one Fiscal Year to the next. Within the SEC Filing Period, Manager shall deliver to Owner a statement (the “Annual Operating Statement”) in reasonable detail summarizing the operations of the Hotel for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year and a certificate of Manager’s chief accounting officer certifying that, to the best of his or her knowledge, such Annual Operating Statement is true and correct. The parties shall, within five (5) business days after Owner’s receipt of such Annual Operating Statement, make any adjustments, by cash payment, in the amounts paid or retained for such Fiscal Year as are needed because of the final figures set forth in such Annual Operating Statement. Such Annual Operating Statement shall be controlling over the preceding Accounting Period Statements. No adjustments shall be made for any Operating Loss in any preceding Fiscal Year.

C. To the extent there is an Operating Loss for any Accounting Period, additional funds in the amount of any such Operating Loss shall be provided by Owner within thirty (30) days after Manager has delivered written notice thereof to Owner. If Owner does not so fund such Operating Loss within the thirty (30) day time period, Manager shall have the right (without affecting Manager’s other remedies under this Agreement) to withdraw an amount to cover such Operating Loss from future distributions of funds otherwise due to Owner. Furthermore, if Owner fails to fund a deficiency upon request by Manager, Manager may also withdraw interest upon such sum from the date payment was due until repayment to Manager at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus three (3) percentage points.

4.02 Books and Records

A. Books of control and account pertaining to operations at the Hotel shall be kept on the accrual basis and in all material respects in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts. Owner may at reasonable intervals during Manager’s normal business hours examine such records. If Owner desires to audit, examine, or review the Annual Operating Statement, Owner shall notify Manager in writing within sixty (60) days after receipt of such Annual Operating Statement of its intention to audit and begin such audit no sooner than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after Manager’s receipt of such notice. Owner shall complete

such audit within ninety (90) days after commencement thereof. If Owner does not make such an audit, then such Annual Operating Statement shall be deemed to be conclusively accepted by Owner as being correct, and Owner shall have no right thereafter, except in the event of fraud by Manager, to question or examine the same. If any audit by Owner discloses an understatement of any amounts due Owner, Manager shall promptly pay Owner such amounts found to be due, plus interest thereon (at the Prime Rate plus one percent (1%) per annum) from the date such amounts should originally have been paid. If any audit discloses that Manager has not received any amounts due it, Owner shall pay Manager such amounts, plus interest thereon (at the Prime Rate plus one percent (1%) per annum) from the date such amounts should originally have been paid. The cost of the audit shall be paid by Owner; provided, however, Manager shall pay for such cost if such audit discloses an underpayment to Owner for the Fiscal Year so audited of more than five percent (5%) of the amount that should have been paid to Owner for such Fiscal Year. Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by the Expert in accordance with Section 11.21.

B. All information regarding the operation of the Hotel which is obtained by Owner through an audit, other than aggregated financial information regarding the results of operations of the Hotels in Owner’s portfolio, shall be considered confidential information and Owner agrees not to disclose such information except as necessary to its advisors, attorneys and consultants participating in the audit process, who shall likewise be informed of the confidential nature of the information and of the duty not to disclose such information to third parties.

4.03 Accounts, Expenditures

A. All funds derived from operation of the Hotel shall be deposited by Manager in bank accounts (the “Operating Accounts”) established by Manager in a bank or banks designated by Manager. Withdrawals from said Operating Accounts shall be made solely by representatives of Manager whose signatures have been authorized. Reasonable xxxxx cash funds shall be maintained at the Hotel.

B. All payments made by Manager hereunder shall be made from the Operating Accounts, xxxxx cash funds, or from the Reserve (in accordance with Section 5.02). Manager shall not be required to make any advance or payment with respect to the Hotel except out of such funds, and Manager shall not be obligated to incur any liability or obligation with respect to the Hotel. In any event, if any such liability or obligation is incurred by Manager with respect to the Hotel, Manager shall have the option to deduct such amounts from Owner’s share of Operating Profit if Owner has not fully reimbursed Manager for said amounts within ten (10) days after Owner’s receipt of notice from Manager that said amounts are due.

C. Debts and liabilities incurred by Manager as a result of its operation and management of the Hotel pursuant to the terms hereof, whether asserted before or after Termination, will be paid by Owner to the extent funds are not available for that purpose from Gross Revenues; Owner shall indemnify, defend and hold Manager harmless from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising from Owner’s failure to pay such debts and liabilities; and the provisions of this Section 4.03.C. shall survive Termination.

4.04 Annual Operating Projection

Manager shall deliver to Owner for its review, at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year after the first Fiscal Year following the Effective Date, a preliminary draft of the business plan and a projection of the estimated Gross Revenues, departmental profits, Deductions, and Operating Profit for the forthcoming Fiscal Year for the Hotel (the “Annual Operating Projection”). Manager will consider in good faith suggestions made by Owner with respect to the Annual Operating Projection and make modifications thereto that Manager deems appropriate. Manager in good faith shall endeavor to adhere to the Annual Operating Projection. It is understood, however, that the Annual Operating Projection is an estimate only and that unforeseen circumstances such as, but not limited to, the costs of labor, material, services and supplies, casualty, operation of law, or economic and market conditions may make adherence to the Annual Operating Projection impracticable, and Manager shall be entitled to depart therefrom due to causes of the foregoing nature.

4.05 Working Capital

On the Effective Date, Owner shall provide to Manager the initial Working Capital for the Hotel in the amount of Fifty-Five Thousand Dollars ($55,000). Owner shall from time to time during the Term promptly, but no later than ten (10) days after written request by Manager, advance any additional funds necessary to maintain Working Capital at levels reasonably determined by Manager to be necessary to satisfy the needs of the Hotel as its operation may from time to time require. If Owner does not so fund additional Working Capital within the said ten (10) day time period, Manager shall have the right (without affecting Manager’s other remedies under this Agreement) to withdraw an amount equal to the funds requested by Manager for additional Working Capital from future distributions of funds otherwise due to Owner. All funds so advanced for Working Capital shall be utilized by Manager for the purposes of this Agreement pursuant to cash-management policies established for the System. Upon Termination, Manager shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, return the outstanding balance of the Working Capital to Owner.

4.06 Fixed Asset Supplies

The parties recognize that, as of the Effective Date, the level of funds for Fixed Asset Supplies is reasonably believed to be reasonably sufficient for the operations of the Hotel, subject at all times to seasonal differences and changes in circumstances after the Effective Date. Any additional funds which are necessary to maintain Fixed Asset Supplies at levels determined by Manager to be necessary to satisfy the needs of the Hotel, as its operation may from time to time require, shall be paid from Gross Revenues as Deductions. Fixed Asset Supplies shall remain the property of Owner throughout the Term and upon Termination, except for Fixed Asset Supplies purchased by Manager pursuant to Section 11.11.E.

4.07 Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes

A. Except as specifically set forth in Section 4.07.B. below, all real estate and personal property taxes, levies, assessments (including special assessments (regardless of when due or whether they are paid as a lump sum or in installments over time) imposed because of facilities which are constructed by or on behalf of the assessing jurisdiction (for example, roads, sidewalks, sewers, culverts, etc.) which directly benefit the Hotel (regardless of whether or not they also benefit other buildings)), “Impact Fees” (regardless of when due or whether they are paid as a lump sum or in installments over time) which are required of Owner as a condition to the issuance of zoning variances or building permits, and similar charges on or relating to the Hotel (collectively, “Impositions”) during the Term shall be paid by Manager from Gross Revenues, before any fine, penalty, or interest is added thereto or lien placed upon the Hotel or upon this Agreement, unless payment thereof is in good faith being contested and enforcement thereof is stayed. Any such payments shall be Deductions in determining Operating Profit. Owner shall, within five (5) days after receipt, furnish Manager with copies of official tax bills and assessments which it may receive with respect to the Hotel. Either Owner or Manager (in which case Owner agrees to sign the required applications and otherwise cooperate with Manager in expediting the matter) may initiate proceedings to contest any negotiations or proceedings with respect to any Imposition, and all reasonable costs of any such contest shall be paid from Gross Revenues and shall be a Deduction in determining Operating Profit. Manager shall, as part of its contest or negotiation of any Imposition, be entitled, on Owner’s behalf, to waive any applicable statute of limitations in order to avoid paying the Imposition during the pendency of any proceedings or negotiations with applicable authorities.

B. The word “Impositions” as used in this Agreement shall not include the following, all of which shall be paid solely by Owner, not from Gross Revenues nor from the Reserve:

1. Any franchise, corporate, estate, inheritance, succession, capital levy or transfer tax imposed on Owner, or any income tax imposed on any income of Owner (including distributions to Owner pursuant to Article III hereof); or

2. “Tax-increment financing” or similar financing whereby the municipality or other taxing authority has assisted in financing the construction of the Hotel by temporarily reducing or abating normal Impositions in return for substantially higher levels of Impositions at later dates.

4.08 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification

Owner may, in connection with its or any of its Affiliates’ annual or quarterly Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements (and in any event no more than four (4) times in any Fiscal Year), request that Manager deliver to Owner or its Affiliate a certificate from an accounting officer of Manager, in a form approved by Manager’s accounting firm, certifying that, to his or her knowledge, the information contained in the Accounting Period Statements for the Accounting Periods contained within the applicable Fiscal Year or quarter are true and

correct in all material respects, subject to final adjustment based on the annual review conducted by Manager in preparing the Annual Operating Statement. Owner shall submit such request in writing, along with the date by which such certificate is to be delivered, not less than five (5) business days prior to the requested delivery date, and Manager shall deliver the certificate by the requested date or, if later, within five (5) business days after Manager’s receipt of Owner’s request. If Owner and its Affiliates own more than one hotel managed by Manager, Manager shall only be required to deliver to Owner and its Affiliates one such certificate, which certificate shall apply in the aggregate to the Accounting Period Statements prepared by Manager for all such hotels.

ARTICLE V

REPAIRS, MAINTENANCE AND REPLACEMENTS

5.01 Repairs and Maintenance to be Paid from Gross Revenues

Manager shall maintain the Hotel in good repair and condition, use its commercially reasonable best efforts (which efforts shall not require Manager to expend any of its own funds) to comply with and abide by all applicable Legal Requirements pertaining to its operation of the Hotel (except for certain Legal Requirements which are Owner’s responsibility under Section 5.03 and Section 11.08 hereof), and shall make or cause to be made such routine maintenance, repairs and minor alterations as it determines are necessary for such purposes. The phrase “routine maintenance, repairs, and minor alterations” as used in this Section 5.01 shall include only those which are normally expensed under generally accepted accounting principles. The cost of such maintenance, repairs and alterations shall be paid from Gross Revenues (and not from the Reserve) and shall be treated as a Deduction.

5.02 Repairs, Maintenance and Equipment Replacements to be Paid from Reserve

A. Manager shall establish a reserve account (the “Reserve”), in a bank or similar institution reasonably acceptable to both Manager and Owner, to cover the cost of:

1. Replacements, renewals and additions to the FF&E at the Hotel; and

2. Routine Capital Expenditures.

B. During the period from the Effective Date to the expiration of the thirteenth (13^th) full Accounting Period after the Effective Date, Manager shall transfer into the Reserve an amount equal to four percent (4%) of Gross Revenues for such period and beginning with the fourteenth (14^th) full Accounting Period and for all Accounting Periods thereafter, subject to the provisions of Section 5.02.E. below, Manager shall transfer into the Reserve an amount equal to five percent (5%) of Gross Revenues for each such Accounting Period. Transfers into the Reserve shall be made at the time of each interim accounting described in Section 4.01 hereof. All amounts transferred to the Reserve shall be deducted from Gross Revenues in determining

Operating Profit and shall be deposited in the special Reserve account described in Section 5.02.A.

C. Manager shall from time to time make such (1) replacements and renewals to the FF&E of the Hotel, and (2) Routine Capital Expenditures, as it deems necessary, up to the balance in the Reserve. No expenditures will be made in excess of said balance without the approval of Owner. At the end of each Fiscal Year, any amounts remaining in the Reserve shall be carried forward to the next Fiscal Year. Proceeds from the sale of FF&E no longer necessary to the operation of the Hotel shall be added to the Reserve. The Reserve will be kept in an interest-bearing account, and any interest which accrues thereon shall be retained in the Reserve. Neither (1) proceeds from the disposition of FF&E, nor (2) interest which accrues on amounts held in the Reserve, shall (a) result in any reduction in the required contributions to the Reserve set forth in Section 5.02.B. above, nor (b) be included in Gross Revenues.

D. Manager shall prepare an estimate (“Repairs and Equipment Estimate”) of the expenditures necessary for (1) replacements, renewals and additions to the FF&E of the Hotel, and (2) Routine Capital Expenditures during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall deliver the Repairs and Equipment Estimate to Owner at the same time it submits the Annual Operating Projection described in Section 4.04. The Repairs and Equipment Estimate shall also indicate the estimated time schedule for making such replacements, renewals and expenditures. Owner shall have thirty (30) days after receipt to review and comment on such Repairs and Equipment Estimate. Manager shall consider in good faith Owner’s comments regarding the Repairs and Equipment Estimate, provided that Owner’s comments are consistent with maintaining System Standards and acknowledging that FF&E replacements occur at regular cycles for soft goods and case goods, which cycles are incorporated in System Standards. Owner shall have the right to approve any individual expenditure in the Repair and Equipment Estimate of $10,000 (as adjusted by the GDP Deflator) or more, and in the event Owner disapproves any such individual expenditure, Owner will provide Manager in writing with the specific reasons for its disapproval within such thirty (30) day period; provided, however, Owner shall not withhold its approval of any Routine Capital Expenditures or any replacements, renewals and additions to the FF&E that are required, in Manager’s reasonable judgment, to keep the Hotel in a first-class condition at least in accordance with System Standards or otherwise required for the continued safe and orderly operation of the Hotel. Thereafter, in the thirty (30) day period following Manager’s receipt of Owner’s disapproval of such individual expenditure, the parties will attempt to resolve in good faith Owner’s objections and if one or more of Owner’s objections have not been resolved as of the end of such thirty (30) day period, such dispute shall be referred to the Expert as provided in Section 11.21. FF&E Leases shall be subject to Section 1.08.

E. As the Hotel ages, these percentages may not be sufficient to keep the Reserve at the levels necessary to make the replacements, renewals and additions to the FF&E of the Hotel, or to make the Routine Capital Expenditures which are required to maintain the Hotel in accordance with the System Standards therefor. If the Repairs and Equipment Estimate prepared in good faith by Manager exceeds the available funds in the Reserve, Owner shall:

1. agree in writing to increase temporarily the annual percentage in Section 5.02.B. to provide the additional funds required, or

2. make a lump sum contribution to the Reserve in the necessary amount; such amount (plus interest at the Prime Rate plus one percent (1%) per annum) shall be fully repaid to Owner from Gross Revenues in equal installments over the period of the next sixty-five (65) Accounting Periods, and such installment repayments shall be Deductions.

If Owner fails to elect one of the above alternatives within sixty (60) days after Manager’s request therefor, Owner shall be deemed to have elected the alternative set forth in Section 5.02.E.1. above. If Owner elects the alternative set forth in Section 5.02.E.2. above and fails to provide the additional funds required thereunder within sixty (60) days after Owner’s receipt of Manager’s request for additional funding, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default by Owner.

5.03 Major Repairs Alterations, Improvements, Renewals, and Replacements to be Funded by Owner

A. Manager shall prepare an annual estimate (the “Building Estimate”) of the expenses necessary for non-routine or major repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals and replacements (which repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals and replacements are not Routine Capital Expenditures) to the Hotel including, without limitation, the structure, the exterior facade, the mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing or vertical transportation elements of each of the Hotel buildings, and other non-routine repairs and maintenance to the Buildings. Manager shall not make any expenditures for such purposes without the prior written consent of Owner unless otherwise permitted herein. Manager shall submit the Building Estimate to Owner for its approval at the same time the Annual Operating Projection is submitted. Owner shall have thirty (30) days after receipt to review and approve such Building Estimate, it being agreed that Owner shall not withhold its approval with respect to Capital Expenditures as are required, in Manager’s reasonable judgment, to keep the Hotel in a first-class, competitive, efficient and economical operating condition in accordance with System Standards or otherwise required for the continued safe and orderly operation of the Hotel, including the removal of Hazardous Materials in compliance with all Environmental Laws (as more particularly described in Section 11.08). Manager shall be authorized to take appropriate remedial action without receiving Owner’s prior consent as follows: (i) in an emergency threatening the Hotel or the life or property of its guests, invitees or employees; (ii) if the Capital Expenditures are necessary to satisfy a Legal Requirement (subject to Owner’s right to contest or oppose, by appropriate proceedings, any such Legal Requirement); or (iii) if the continuation of the given condition will subject Manager and/or Owner to civil or criminal liability. Manager shall cooperate with Owner in the pursuit of any such action and shall have the right to participate therein.

B. The cost of all repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements referred to in this Section 5.03 (including the expenses incurred by either Owner or Manager in connection with any civil or criminal proceeding described above) shall be borne solely by Owner, and shall not be paid from Gross Revenues nor from the Reserve.

C. If Owner fails to approve and fund any proposed expenditures described in Section 5.03.A. within sixty (60) days after the submission to Owner of the request therefor, Manager shall have, in addition to any other rights it may have under this Agreement, the option of terminating this Agreement upon six (6) months’ written notice to Owner.

5.04 Ownership of Replacements

All repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements made pursuant to this Article V, and all amounts kept in the Reserve, shall be the property of Owner, subject to Manager’s rights to such funds as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

5.05 Design Specifications

Subject to brand design standards generally employed for the System, with respect to any capital expenditure programs submitted to Owner by Manager, Owner shall have the right to choose in its reasonable discretion one prototype package for such capital expenditure program from the variety of standard prototype packages available to complete such program. With respect to custom design packages that fall outside the scope of the then-current brand design standards and prototype packages generally employed for the System, Owner and Manager must mutually agree upon the details of such custom design packages, including design specifications.

5.06 Management of Hotel Renovation and Construction Projects

Owner shall have the right to manage the construction of any repair, refurbishment (including FF&E replacement), renovation or construction project at the Hotel, that exceeds a total budgeted cost of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), as adjusted by the GDP Deflator; provided, however, that (i) Marriott International Design & Construction Services, Inc. be allowed to bid on all projects funded from the Reserve; (ii) prior to commencement of a renovation or construction project, Owner shall submit to Manager’s Hotel Design Review Committee (or such similar committee), for its approval, all project plans, drawings and specifications and shall ensure that the final plans, drawings and specifications pursuant to which the project is undertaken conform to those approved by such committee; (iii) all materials used and quality of installation and finish shall be equal to or better than those required by System Standards; (iv) the contractors, architects and other consultants utilized by Owner shall be subject to the approval of Manager (based upon reputation and experience) and shall be fully insured and bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Manager; (v) the project shall not be deemed completed until Manager, in its reasonable judgment, certifies that the renovation or construction work conforms with all project plans, drawings, and specifications approved by Manager; and (vi) Owner shall work cooperatively with Manager to minimize interruption to Hotel operations, and to the experience of the Hotel’s guests, from the project. Any construction project or Hotel renovation that has a total budgeted cost of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), or less, as adjusted by the GDP Deflator, shall be managed through Marriott International Design & Construction Services, Inc. or such other design and construction firm selected by Manager.

ARTICLE VI

INSURANCE

6.01 Property Insurance

A. Manager shall, commencing with the Effective Date and for the duration of the Term, procure and maintain, using funds deducted from Gross Revenues in determining Operating Profit, a minimum of the following insurance:

1. Insurance on the Hotel (including contents) against loss or damage by all perils included in “all risk” (as such term is commonly used in the insurance industry) coverage, in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement cost thereof, except that if such 100% replacement cost coverage is not available on reasonable rates and terms, then such insurance shall be in an amount not less than ninety percent (90%) of the replacement cost thereof (less excavation and foundation costs), of the Hotel;

2. Earthquake (except in California) and flood insurance, if available on reasonable rates and terms, to be determined at the discretion of Manager;

3. Insurance against loss or damage from explosion of boilers, pressure vessels, pressure pipes and sprinklers, to the extent applicable, installed in the Hotel;

4. Business interruption insurance covering loss of profits and necessary continuing expenses for interruptions caused by any occurrence covered by the insurance referred to in Section 6.01.A.1, 2 and 3, for a period of not less than one (1) year after the occurrence, of a type and in amounts and with such deductible limits as are generally established by Manager at the other Hotels it owns or manages under the Marriott Courtyard Hotel name in the United States.

B. All policies of insurance required under Section 6.01. A. 1, 2, 3 and 4 shall insure Owner, Manager, and the holder of the first mortgage indebtedness with respect to the Hotel (a “First Mortgage”); and any losses thereunder shall be payable to the parties as and to the extent their respective interests, if any, may appear.

C. Any Mortgage on the Hotel shall contain provisions to the effect that proceeds of the insurance policies required to be carried under Section 6.01 shall be available for repair and restoration of the Hotel.

6.02 Operational Insurance

Manager shall, commencing with the Effective Date and for the duration of the Term, procure and maintain, using funds deducted from Gross Revenues in determining Operating Profit, with insurance companies approved by Owner the following insurance:

A. Workers’ compensation and employer’s liability insurance as may be required under applicable laws covering all of Manager’s employees at the Hotel, with such deductible limits or self-insured retentions as are generally established by Manager at the other Hotels it owns or manages under the “Courtyard by Marriott” name in the United States;

B. Fidelity bonds, with reasonable limits and deductibles to be determined by Manager, covering its employees in job classifications normally bonded in the other Hotels it owns or manages under the “Courtyard by Marriott” name in the United States or as otherwise required by law, and comprehensive crime insurance to the extent Manager and Owner mutually agree it is necessary for the Hotel;

C. Comprehensive general public liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring on, in, or about the Hotel, and automobile insurance on vehicles operated in conjunction with the Hotel, with a combined single limit of not less than One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) for each occurrence for personal injury, death and property damage, with such deductible limits or self-insured retentions as are generally established by Manager at the other Hotels it owns or manages under the “Courtyard by Marriott” name in the United States; if Manager feels in its reasonable discretion that higher limits are appropriate, it will obtain them; and

D. Such other insurance in amounts as Manager in its reasonable judgment deems advisable for protection against claims, liabilities and losses arising out of or connected with the operation of the Hotel or as reasonably required by Owner’s lenders holding Qualified Mortgages on the Hotel.

6.03 Coverage

All insurance described in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 may be obtained by Manager by endorsement or equivalent means under its or Marriott’s blanket insurance policies, provided that such blanket policies substantially fulfill the requirements specified herein. Deductible limits and self-insured retentions shall be as provided in the blanket policies covering the Hotels owned or managed by Manager under the “Courtyard by Marriott” name in the United States. In addition, Manager may self-insure workers’ compensation insurance (if it has legally qualified to do so) or otherwise retain such risks or portions thereof as it does with respect to other Hotels it owns or manages under the “Courtyard by Marriott” name in the United States.

6.04 Costs and Expenses

Insurance premiums and any costs or expenses with respect to the insurance described in this Article VI shall be Deductions in determining Operating Profit. Premiums on policies for more than one year shall be charged pro rata against Gross Revenues over the period of the policies. The expenses incurred in maintaining Manager’s self-insurance program shall be charged on an equitable basis to the hotels participating in such programs. Any reserves, losses, costs, damages or expenses which are uninsured, or fall within deductible limits, shall be treated as a cost of insurance and shall be Deductions in determining Operating Profit. Upon Termination, an escrow fund in an amount reasonably acceptable to Manager (which amount,

when funded, shall thereafter be final as between Owner and Manager) shall be established from Gross Revenues (or, if Gross Revenues are not sufficient, with funds provided by Owner) to cover the amount of any deductible limits and all other costs which will eventually have to be paid by Manager with respect to pending or contingent claims, including those which arise after Termination for causes arising during the term of the Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

DAMAGE AND REPAIR

7.01 Damage and Repair

A. If, during the Term, the Hotel is damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty or other cause, Owner shall, at its cost and expense and with all reasonable diligence, repair or replace the damaged or destroyed portion of the Hotel to the same condition as existed previously and Manager shall have the right to discontinue operating the Hotel to the extent it deems necessary to comply with applicable law, ordinance, regulation or order or as necessary for the safe and orderly operation of the Hotel. To the extent available, proceeds from the insurance described in this Agreement shall be applied to such repairs or replacements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner shall not be obligated to repair or replace the damaged or destroyed portion of the Hotel if one or more of the following is true: (i) the Hotel is so badly damaged or destroyed that it cannot reasonably be repaired or replaced within eighteen (18) months of the date on which the construction work relating to the repair and/or replacement would begin; (ii) with respect to insurance obtained by Manager under Section 6.01, the proceeds of such insurance available for such repair or replacement are less than ninety percent (90%) of the estimated repair and replacement costs; or (iii) the remainder of the Term is less than ten (10) years and, upon Owner’s request, Manager fails to agree to extend the Term to a date which is at least ten (10) years after the estimated date of the completion of such repair and/or replacement. If Owner elects not to repair or replace said damaged portion of the Hotel for one or more of the foregoing reasons, it shall so notify Manager by written notice within ninety (90) days after the date of the casualty.

B. In the event damage or destruction to the Hotel from any cause materially and adversely affects the operation of the Hotel and (i) Owner fails to promptly commence and complete the repairing, rebuilding or replacement of the same as required by Section 7.01.A. so that the Hotel shall be substantially the same as it was prior to such damage or destruction, Manager may, at its option, elect to either undertake such work for the account of Owner, terminate this Agreement by written notice to Owner and this Agreement shall terminate on the date that is sixty (60) days after receipt of such written notice by Owner, and/or pursue all other rights and remedies pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) Owner notifies Manager within the time period set forth in Section 7.01.A. above, that Owner will not repair or replace such damage for one or more of the reasons set forth in Section 7.01.A., Manager may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by written notice to Owner and this Agreement shall terminate on the date that is sixty (60) days after receipt of such written notice by Owner.

7.02 Condemnation

A. In the event all or substantially all of the Hotel shall be taken in any eminent domain, condemnation, compulsory acquisition, or similar proceeding by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or in the event a portion of the Hotel shall be so taken, but the result is that it is unreasonable to continue to operate the Hotel in accordance with the standards required by this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate. Owner and Manager shall each have the right to initiate such proceedings as they deem advisable to recover any compensation to which they may be entitled.

B. In the event a portion of the Hotel shall be taken by the events described in Section 7.02.A., or the entire Hotel is affected but on a temporary basis, and the result is not to make it unreasonable to continue to operate the Hotel, this Agreement shall not terminate. However, so much of any award for any such partial taking or condemnation as shall be necessary to render the Hotel equivalent to its condition prior to such event shall be used for such purpose, and the balance of such award shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of a Qualified Mortgage; provided, however, that such balance shall be deemed to be included in Gross Revenues. Manager shall have the right to discontinue operating the Hotel to the extent it deems necessary for the safe and orderly operation of the Hotel.

ARTICLE VIII

OWNERSHIP OF THE HOTEL

8.01 Ownership of the Hotel

A. Owner hereby covenants that: (i) Owner holds leasehold title to the Site pursuant to the Hotel Lease; (ii) Landlord holds good and marketable fee title to the Site; and (iii) Landlord will have, keep, and maintain good and marketable fee title to the Hotel free and clear of any and all liens, encumbrances or other charges, except as follows:

1. easements or other encumbrances (other than those described in this Section 8.01 below) that do not adversely affect the operation of the Hotel by Manager and that are not prohibited pursuant to Section 8.04 of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) any encumbrances or other defects of title subject to which title was conveyed to Landlord, or (ii) liens, encumbrances or other charges resulting from Manager’s acts that are the fault of Manager pursuant to Section 8.05;

2. Qualified Mortgages; or

3. liens for taxes, assessments, levies or other public charges not yet due or due but not yet payable.

B. Owner (and its Affiliates) shall pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, on or before the due date, any and all (i) payments due under any Mortgage with

respect to the Hotel; and (ii) any rent due under the Hotel Lease. Owner shall indemnify, defend, and hold Manager harmless from and against all claims, Litigation and damages arising from the failure to make any such payments as and when required; and this obligation of Owner shall survive Termination. Manager shall have no responsibility for payment of debt service or rent due with respect to the Hotel, from Gross Revenues or otherwise, and such responsibility shall be solely that of Owner (and its Affiliates).

C. Owner covenants that Manager shall quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Hotel in accordance with the terms of this Agreement throughout the Term hereof free from hindrance, ejection or molestation by Owner or any other party claiming under, through or by right of Owner. Owner agrees to pay and discharge any payments and charges and, at its expense, to prosecute all appropriate actions, judicial or otherwise, necessary to assure such free and quiet occupation.

8.02 Mortgages

A. Owner shall be permitted to encumber the Hotel and/or the Site with any Mortgage, provided that such Mortgage meets all of the following requirements:

1. The proposed Mortgage is from an Institutional Lender and is on commercially reasonable terms and conditions;

2. As of the date of the proposed financing, the aggregate principal balance of all Mortgages encumbering the Hotel, including the proposed Mortgage, shall be no greater than the lesser of: (x) seventy percent (70%) of the fair market value of the Hotel; or (y) the dollar amount obtained by (a) dividing the average annual Operating Profit for the twenty-six (26) most recent full Accounting Periods by the Coverage Ratio; then (b) multiplying the result of clause (a) by the Capitalization Multiple; and

3. Owner, Manager and the holder of such Mortgage shall have entered into a Subordination Agreement (to be recorded in the real property records in the jurisdiction where the Site is located) as further described in Section 8.03 below.

B. For purposes of this Section 8.02, the fair market value of the Hotel shall be (i) as set forth in any then current appraisal obtained or accepted by an Institutional Lender in connection with a Qualified Mortgage, or (ii) in the absence of such an appraisal, as reasonably determined by Owner and Manager. If Owner and Manager do not agree on such fair market value, either party may request that a licensed appraiser (reasonably acceptable to both parties) shall determine the fair market value of the Hotel. If the parties cannot agree on an appraiser within thirty (30) days after the date on which either party notifies the other that it wishes to have the fair market value of the Hotel be determined by an appraisal, either party may elect to have such fair market value determined by the Expert pursuant to Section 11.21. Any Mortgage which meets all of the requirements set forth in this Section 8.02 shall be referred to in this Agreement as a “Qualified Mortgage.”

C. In the event Manager receives any reasonable request for information on the Hotel from the holder of any Qualified Mortgage (and including any Affiliate of Manager providing any financing in connection with the Hotel), Owner agrees that Manager is hereby authorized to provide or distribute such information directly to such lender.

D. Without altering any of Manager’s rights under this Agreement, and provided that none of Manager’s rights under this Agreement are adversely affected, Manager shall cooperate, at no cost to Manager, in good faith with Owner and its Mortgagee in connection with any Qualified Mortgage including the negotiation and execution of any other agreements customarily required by Institutional Lenders in connection with the Qualified Mortgage.

8.03 Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment

A. Owner will obtain from any Mortgagee which holds a Mortgage as of the Effective Date (or thereafter) an instrument (the “Subordination Agreement”), reasonably satisfactory in all respects to Manager and such Mortgagee, which shall be recordable in the jurisdiction where the Hotel is located, pursuant to which:

1. This Agreement and any extensions, renewals, replacements or modifications thereto, and all right and interest of Manager in and to the Hotel, shall be subject and subordinate to such Mortgage, with notice and opportunity to cure rights and post-default cure rights in favor of Mortgagee;

2. Manager shall be obligated to each of the Subsequent Owners (as defined below) to perform all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the balance of the remaining Term hereof, with the same force and effect as if such Subsequent Owner were the Owner; and

3. In the event that there is a foreclosure of such Mortgage (or a deed in lieu of foreclosure), or other exercise by such Mortgagee (or its successor) of its remedies in the event of default, in connection with which title or possession of the Hotel is transferred to the Mortgagee (or its designee) or to a purchaser at foreclosure or to a subsequent purchaser from the Mortgagee (or from its designee) (all of the foregoing shall collectively be referred to as “Subsequent Owners”), this Agreement shall not be terminated and Manager shall not be disturbed in its rights under this Agreement.

B. In the event that the Subordination Agreement contains provisions requiring Manager (upon a default under the Mortgage, or upon various other stipulated conditions) to pay certain amounts which are otherwise due to Owner under this Agreement to the Mortgagee or its designee (rather than to Owner), Owner hereby gives its consent to such provisions, which consent shall be deemed to be irrevocable until the entire debt secured by the Mortgage has been discharged.

C. Prior to encumbering the Hotel or the Site with any Mortgage, Owner shall be obligated to obtain from the proposed Mortgagee an executed, recordable Subordination Agreement. Manager agrees to execute such Subordination Agreement for the benefit of such

proposed Mortgagee. If Owner encumbers the Hotel or the Site with a Mortgage without first obtaining such a Subordination Agreement from the Mortgagee: (i) it shall be a Default of Owner under this Agreement, entitling Manager to all of the remedies set forth in Article IX; and (ii) in addition, Manager shall thereafter have a continuing right to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Owner. In addition, any Mortgage described in the preceding sentence shall be subject and subordinate to Manager’s rights under this Agreement.

D. Notwithstanding the subordination of this Agreement which is described in Section 8.03.A.1., if, in connection with the exercise by any Mortgagee of its remedies under any Mortgage, there is a material adverse impact upon the operation of the Hotel by Manager in accordance with the System Standards, the foregoing shall be deemed to be an Event of Default by Owner entitling Manager to all of the remedies set forth in Article IX.

8.04 No Covenants, Conditions or Restrictions

A. Owner covenants that, as of the Effective Date and during the Term, there will not be (unless Manager has given its prior consent thereto) any covenants, conditions or restrictions, including reciprocal easement agreements or cost-sharing arrangements (individually or collectively referred to as “CC&R(s)”) affecting the Site or the Hotel which: (i) would prohibit or limit Manager from operating the Hotel in accordance with the System Standards; (ii) would allow the Hotel facilities (for example, parking spaces) to be used by persons other than guests, invitees or employees of the Hotel; (iii) would allow the Hotel facilities to be used for specified charges or rates which have not been approved by Manager; or (iv) would subject the Hotel to exclusive arrangements regarding food and beverage operation or retail merchandise.

B. Unless otherwise agreed by both Owner and Manager, all financial obligations imposed on Owner or on the Hotel pursuant to any CC&Rs hereafter affecting the Hotel shall be paid by Owner from its own funds, and not from Gross Revenues or from the Reserve. Manager’s consent to any such CC&R shall be conditioned (among other things) on satisfactory evidence that: (i) the CC&R in question provides a reasonable and cost-effective benefit to the operation of the Hotel; (ii) the costs incurred (including administrative expenses) pursuant to such CC&R will be both reasonable and allocated to the Hotel on a reasonable basis; and (iii) no capital expenditures incurred pursuant to said CC&R will be paid from Gross Revenues or from the Reserve (but rather, such capital expenditures will be paid separately by Owner).

8.05 Liens; Credit

Manager and Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any liens from being filed against the Hotel which arise from any maintenance, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements in or to the Hotel, and shall cooperate fully in obtaining the release of any such liens. If the lien was not occasioned by the fault of either party, the cost of releasing any lien shall be treated the same as the cost of the matter to which it relates. If the lien arises as a result of the fault of either party, then the party at fault shall bear the cost of obtaining the lien release. In no event shall either party borrow money in the name of or pledge the credit of the other.

ARTICLE IX

9.01 Events of Default

Each of the following shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, constitute a “Default” under this Agreement.

A. The filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or a petition for reorganization under any bankruptcy law by either party, or the admission by either party that it is unable to pay its debts as they become due. Upon the occurrence of any Default by either party (referred to as the “defaulting party”) as described under this Section 9.01.A., said Default shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under this Agreement.

B. The consent to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy or the failure to vacate, within ninety (90) days from the date of entry thereof, any order approving an involuntary petition by either party. Upon the occurrence of any Default by either party as described under this Section 9.01.B., said Default shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under this Agreement.

C. The entering of an order, judgment or decree by any court of competent jurisdiction, on the application of a creditor, adjudicating either party as bankrupt or insolvent or approving a petition seeking reorganization or appointing a receiver, trustee, or liquidator of all or a substantial part of such party’s assets, and such order, judgment or decree’s continuing unstayed and in effect for an aggregate of sixty (60) days (whether or not consecutive).

D. The failure of either party to make any payment required to be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, as of the due date as specified in this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Default by either party as described under this Section 9.01.D., said Default shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under this Agreement if the defaulting party fails to cure such Default within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from the non-defaulting party demanding such cure.

E. Owner or any of Owner’s Affiliates is or becomes a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person. Upon the occurrence of any Default as described in this Section 9.01.E., said Default shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under this Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of any Default by either party as described under this Section 9.01.F., said Default shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under this Agreement if the defaulting party fails to cure the Default within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the non-defaulting party demanding such cure, or, if the Default is

such that it cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period of time, if the defaulting party fails to commence the cure of such Default within said thirty (30) day period of time or thereafter fails to diligently pursue such efforts to completion.

9.02 Remedies

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to pursue any one or more of the following courses of action: (1) if the Event of Default has a material adverse impact on the non-defaulting party, to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the defaulting party, which termination shall be effective as of the effective date which is set forth in said notice, provided that said effective date shall be at least thirty (30) days after the date of said notice and further provided that, if the defaulting party is Manager, the foregoing period of thirty (30) days shall be extended to seventy-five (75) days (or such longer period of time as may be necessary under Legal Requirements pertaining to termination of employment); (2) to institute forthwith any and all proceedings permitted by law or equity including, without limitation (but subject to the provisions of Section 11.23 hereof), actions for specific performance and/or damages; and/or (3) to avail itself of the remedies described in Section 9.03.

C. Manager and/or any Affiliate of Manager shall be entitled, in case of any breach of the covenants of Section 11.11.E., Section 11.11.F. or Section 11.12 by Owner or others claiming through it, to injunctive relief and to any other right or remedy available at law or in equity.

D. The remedies granted under Section 9.02 and Section 9.03 shall not be in substitution for, but shall be in addition, to, any and all rights and remedies available to the non-defaulting party (including, without limitation, injunctive relief and damages) by reason of applicable provisions of law or equity and shall survive Termination.

ASSIGNMENT AND SALE

10.01 Assignment

A. Manager shall not assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of Owner; provided, however, that Manager shall have the right, without Owner’s consent, to (1) assign its interest in this Agreement to Marriott or any Affiliate of Marriott which (i) has adequate experience in managing hotels and has adequate capital to conduct its business as Manager under this Agreement, and (ii) agrees in writing to be bound by and comply with the terms of this Agreement (such written agreement to be delivered to Owner), (2) lease shops or grant concessions at the Hotel in accordance with the terms hereof so long as the terms of any such leases or concessions do not exceed the Term, (3) assign its interest in this Agreement in connection with a merger or consolidation or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Manager or Marriott, and (4) assign its interest in this Agreement in connection with a merger or consolidation or a sale of all or substantially all of the System assets owned by Manager, Marriott or any Affiliate of Manager or Marriott, if the successor or purchaser (i) has adequate experience in managing hotels and has adequate capital to conduct its business as Manager under this Agreement, and (ii) agrees in writing to be bound by and comply with the terms of this Agreement (such written agreement to be delivered to Owner).

B. Owner shall not assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Manager; provided, however, that Owner shall have the right, without such consent, to (1) conditionally assign this Agreement as security for a Mortgage of the Hotel in accordance with this Agreement, (2) assign its interest in this Agreement in connection with a Sale of the Hotel which complies with the provisions of Section 10.02 of this Agreement, (3) assign its interest in this Agreement in connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Hotel by Owner or Landlord to an Affiliate of Owner, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 10.02.A, and (4) assign its interest in this Agreement in connection with a merger or consolidation or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Apple REIT Six, Inc., subject to the provisions of Section 10.02.A.

C. In the event either party consents to an assignment of this Agreement by the other, no further assignment shall be made without the express consent in writing of such party, unless such assignment may otherwise be made without such consent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. An assignment by either Owner or Manager of its interest in this Agreement shall not relieve Owner or Manager, as the case may be, from its respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, its respective successors, heirs, legal representatives, or assigns.

10.02 Sale of the Hotel

A. Neither Owner nor Landlord shall enter into any Sale of the Hotel to any Person (or any Affiliate of any Person) who: (1) does not, in Manager’s reasonable judgment, have sufficient financial resources to fulfill Owner’s obligations under this Agreement; (2) is known

in the community as being of bad moral character, or has been convicted of a felony in any state or federal court, or is in control of or controlled by Persons who have been convicted of felonies in any state or federal court; (3) either directly or indirectly, has an ownership interest (other than the ownership of not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding common stock of any publicly-held company) in a brand of hotels totaling at least twenty (20) hotels, or in a group of hotels totaling at least twenty (20) hotels that are not affiliated with a brand but that are marketed and operated as a collective group, if such brand or group of hotels competes with Manager, Marriott or any Affiliate thereof; or (4) such Person or any of its Affiliates is a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person. An individual or entity shall not be deemed to be in the business of operating hotels or other lodging facilities in competition with Manager, Marriott or any Affiliate solely by virtue of (x) the ownership of such hotels or other lodging facilities, either directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, affiliates and partnerships, or (y) holding a mortgage or mortgages secured by one or more hotels or other lodging facilities. Furthermore, Owner shall not enter into a Sale of the Hotel if Owner is at the time in Default under the terms of this Agreement.

B. If Owner or Landlord decides to sell or lease the Hotel to a third party, then prior to offering the Hotel for sale or lease or negotiating a Sale of the Hotel with any third party, Owner and Landlord will give Manager notice of such decision (“Notice of Intent to Sell”), and Owner and Landlord, as applicable, and Manager will, during the period of thirty (30) days after such notice, attempt in good faith to negotiate a mutually satisfactory agreement for the purchase of the Hotel. For purposes of this Section 10.02.B., a sale to a third party shall not include any transfer, sale or assignment to a Mortgagee nor to a sale at Foreclosure under a Mortgage. If, after the expiration of thirty (30) days following the date of Owner’s notice of its desire to sell or lease the Hotel, Owner, Landlord and Manager have not entered into a mutually acceptable agreement for the purchase or lease of the Hotel, Owner or Landlord shall be free, subject to the conditions of this Section 10.02, to sell or lease the Hotel to a third party provided; (i) the Hotel is to be sold or leased in conjunction with other hotels not operated by Manager or its Affiliates, or other hotels operated by Manager or it Affiliates but for which Manager or such Affiliates do not have a right of first negotiation as described in this Section 10.02.B; or (ii) the Hotel is sold as a single asset or is sold in conjunction with other hotels operated by Manager or its Affiliates for which Manager or such Affiliates have a right of first negotiation as described in this Section 10.02.B, and the price or rental for the Hotel to such third party has not been reduced by more than five percent (5%) of the price or rental which Owner or Landlord offered to sell or rent the Hotel to Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any sale or lease shall be subject to the following further conditions:

1. Owner and Landlord shall deliver a written notice (the “Notice of Proposed Sale”) (which Notice of Proposed Sale may be given concurrently with the Notice of Intent to Sell), of the proposed Sale of the Hotel to Manager stating: (i) the name of the prospective purchaser or tenant, as the case may be; (ii) the price or rental; and (iii) the terms and conditions of such proposed Sale of the Hotel, together with all other information reasonably requested by Manager.

2. Within thirty (30) days after the date of receipt of such Notice of Proposed Sale from Owner and such other information, if Manager and Landlord or Owner have not

entered into a mutually acceptable agreement for the purchase or lease of the Hotel, Manager shall elect, by written notice to Owner and Landlord, one of the following two (2) alternatives:

a. To consent to such Sale of the Hotel and to the assignment of this Agreement to such purchaser or tenant, provided that concurrently with the closing thereof, the purchaser or tenant, as the case may be, shall, by appropriate instrument in form satisfactory to Manager, assume all of Owner’s obligations under this Agreement. An executed original of such assumption agreement shall be delivered to Manager; or

b. To not consent to such proposed Sale of the Hotel, based upon such Sale of the Hotel not being in compliance with Section 10.02.A. above, specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such decision, in which event such Sale of the Hotel shall not be permitted hereunder and it shall be an Event of Default for Owner to proceed with such Sale of the Hotel.

C. If Manager shall fail to elect one of the alternatives set forth in Section 10.02.B.2. above, within said thirty (30) day period, such failure shall be deemed to constitute an election to consent under Section 10.02.B.2.a. above, and the provisions thereof shall prevail as if Manager had consented in writing thereto. Any proposed Sale of the Hotel with respect to which a Notice of Proposed Sale has been delivered by Owner to Manager hereunder must be finalized within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of Manager’s written notice in response to such Notice of Proposed Sale. Failing such finalization, such Notice of Proposed Sale, and any response thereto given by Manager, shall be null and void and all of the provisions of Section 10.02.B. and Section 10.02.C. must again be complied with before Owner or Landlord, as applicable, shall have the right to finalize a Sale of the Hotel upon the terms contained in said Notice of Proposed Sale, or otherwise.

D. If Manager consents (or is deemed to have consented) to the proposed Sale of the Hotel, then Manager shall have the option to require (in lieu of receipt of the assumption agreement described in Section 10.02.B.2.a.) that such purchaser or tenant enter into a new management agreement with Manager, which new management agreement will be on all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement except that the Initial Term and Renewal Term(s) of any such new agreement shall consist only of the balance of the Initial Term and Renewal Term(s) remaining under this Agreement at the time of execution of any such new management agreement. Such new management agreement shall be executed by Manager and such new owner at the time of closing of the Sale of the Hotel, and a memorandum of such new management agreement shall be executed by the parties and recorded immediately following recording of the deed or memorandum of lease (or assignment) and prior to recordation of any other documents.

E. Each party hereby represents and warrants to the other that neither such party nor any of its Affiliates is a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person. Owner hereby represents and warrants to Manager that its equity is directly and (if applicable) indirectly owned as shown on Exhibit B. In connection with the possibility of a Sale of the Hotel achieved by means of a transfer of the controlling interest in Owner or Landlord, Owner shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) days after written request by Manager, furnish Manager with a list of the

names and addresses of the direct and indirect owners of capital stock, partnership interest, or other proprietary interest of Owner and Landlord, provided that Owner and Landlord shall not be required to provide the names and addresses of shareholders of a public company.

F. It is understood that no Sale of the Hotel shall reduce, require any increase or otherwise affect: (i) the current level of Working Capital; (ii) the outstanding balance deposited in the Reserve; (iii) the outstanding balance in any of the Operating Accounts maintained by Manager pursuant to this Agreement; or (iv) Owner’s Priority. If, in connection with any Sale of the Hotel, the selling Owner intends to withdraw, for its own use, any of the cash deposits described in the preceding sentence, the selling Owner must obtain the contractual obligation of the buying Owner to replenish those deposits (in the identical amounts) simultaneously with such withdrawal. The selling Owner is hereby contractually obligated to Manager to ensure that such replenishment in fact occurs. The obligations described in this Section 10.02.F. shall survive such Sale of the Hotel and shall survive Termination.

G. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon all successors to Owner’s and Landlord’s interest in the Site and/or the Hotel. Each selling Owner shall be obligated to Manager to obtain from each buying Owner an assumption (reasonably satisfactory to Manager) of this Agreement.

H. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Manager shall have the right (without prejudice to its rights to declare an Event of Default and seek damages or other compensation) to terminate this Agreement, on thirty (30) days’ written notice, if title to or possession of the Hotel is transferred by judicial or administrative process (including, without limitation, a Foreclosure, or a sale pursuant to an order of a bankruptcy court, or a sale by a court-appointed receiver) to an individual or entity which would not qualify as a permitted transferee under Section 10.02.A., regardless of whether or not such transfer is the voluntary action of the transferring Owner, or whether (under applicable law) the Owner is in fact the transferor.

11.08 Environmental Matters

A. Owner hereby represents and warrants to Manager that, to Owner’s actual knowledge, as of the Effective Date, there are no Hazardous Materials (as defined below) on any

portion of the Site or the Hotel, nor have any Hazardous Materials been released or discharged on any portion of the Site or the Hotel. In addition, Owner hereby represents and warrants that it has previously delivered to Manager copies of all reports concerning environmental conditions which have been received by Owner or any of its Affiliates. In the event of the discovery of Hazardous Materials on any portion of the Site or in the Hotel during the Term, Owner shall promptly remove such Hazardous Materials, together with all contaminated soil and containers, and shall otherwise remedy the problem in accordance with (1) the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq., as amended; (2) the regulations promulgated thereunder, from time to time; (3) all federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations (now or hereafter in effect) dealing with the use, generation, treatment, storage, disposal or abatement of Hazardous Materials; and (4) the regulations promulgated thereunder, from time to time (collectively referred to as “Environmental Laws”). Owner shall indemnify, defend and hold Manager harmless from and against all loss, costs, liability and damage (including, without limitation, engineers’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of Litigation) to the extent arising from the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Site or in the Hotel; and this obligation of Owner shall survive Termination. “Hazardous Materials” shall mean and include any substance or material containing one or more of any of the following: “hazardous material,” “hazardous waste,” “hazardous substance,” “regulated substance,” “petroleum,” “pollutant,” “contaminant,” “polychlorinated biphenyls,” “lead or lead-based paint” or “asbestos” as such terms are defined in any applicable Environmental Law in such concentration(s) or amount(s) as may impose clean-up, removal, monitoring or other responsibility under the Environmental Laws, as the same may be amended from time to time, or which may present a significant risk of harm to guests, invitees or employees of the Hotel.

B. All costs and expenses of the aforesaid removal of Hazardous Materials from the Site or the Hotel, and of the aforesaid compliance with all Environmental Laws, and any amounts paid to Manager pursuant to the indemnity set forth in Section 11.08.A. (collectively, the “Environmental Costs”), shall be paid by Owner from its own funds, and not from Gross Revenues or from the Reserve. If the Environmental Costs exceed the combined Operating Profit for the two full Fiscal Years immediately preceding the Fiscal Year(s) in which such Environmental Costs are incurred, Owner shall provide written notice to Manager thereof, and Manager shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of such notice to elect by written notice to Owner to either (i) terminate this Agreement in which event this Agreement shall terminate on the date that is sixty (60) days after Owner’s receipt of such written termination notice from Manager; or (ii) increase Owner’s Priority by an amount equal to twelve percent (12%) of such Environmental Costs. If Manager does not provide notice of its election to Owner, Manager shall be deemed to have elected to increase Owner’s Priority in accordance with Section 11.08.B(ii). If Manager elects, or is deemed to have elected, to increase Owner’s Priority in accordance with Section 11.08.B(ii), such increase shall be effective upon (and to the extent of) the payment of such Environmental Costs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Environmental Costs shall not be added to Owner’s Priority for purposes of calculating the Performance Termination Threshold. Any dispute with respect to such Environmental Costs shall be referred to the Expert as provided in Section 11.21.

11.09 Confidentiality

Owner and Manager agree that the terms of this Agreement are strictly confidential and will use their reasonable efforts to ensure that such matters and information are not disclosed to any outside person or entities without the prior written consent of the other party, except (1) as either party may determine is required by any law, rule, regulation or judicial process, or by any regulatory or supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the parties or their Affiliates or, (2) to the extent necessary, (i) to obtain licenses, permits and other public approvals, (ii) in connection with a financing of the Hotel, Owner, Landlord or any Affiliate thereof, (iii) in connection with a Sale of the Hotel or other sale of Owner, Landlord or any Affiliate thereof or its or their corporate assets, (iv) in connection with a financing or sale of Manager, Marriott, or any Affiliate thereof or its or their corporate assets, or (v) subject to the provisions of Section 4.02, in connection with an audit or other investigation conducted pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed confidential to the extent: (a) such information becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by the recipient or persons to whom such recipient has made the information available; (b) the recipient can demonstrate that such information was received by such recipient on a non-confidential basis, prior to receipt from the other party, from a third party lawfully possessing and lawfully entitled to disclose such information; (c) such confidential information consists of aggregated historical financial information for the Hotels in Owner’s portfolio; and (d) the party seeking to disclose such confidential information can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the other party that the information sought to be disclosed is customarily disclosed by at least eighty percent (80%) of all hotel owners directly or indirectly owning hotels in the United States.

11.10 Projections

Owner acknowledges that any written or oral projections, pro formas, or other similar information that has been (prior to execution of this Agreement) or will (during the Term) be provided by Manager or Marriott (or any Affiliate of either) to Owner is for information purposes only, and that Manager, Marriott, and any such Affiliate do not guarantee that the Hotel will achieve the results set forth in any such projections, pro formas, or other similar information. Owner further acknowledges that any such projections, pro formas, or other similar information are based on assumptions and estimates, unanticipated events may occur subsequent to the date of preparation of such projections, pro formas, and other similar information, and the actual results achieved by the Hotel are likely to vary from the estimates contained in any such projections, pro formas, or other similar information and such variations might be material.

11.11 Actions to be Taken Upon Termination

Upon a Termination, the following shall be applicable:

A. Manager shall, within ninety (90) days after Termination, prepare and deliver to Owner a final accounting statement with respect to the Hotel, as more particularly described in Section 4.01 hereof, along with a statement of any sums due from Owner to Manager pursuant hereto, dated as of the date of Termination. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt by Owner of

such final accounting statement, the parties will make whatever cash adjustments are necessary pursuant to such final statement. The cost of preparing such final accounting statement shall be a Deduction, unless the Termination occurs as a result of a Default by either party, in which case the defaulting party shall pay such cost. Manager and Owner acknowledge that there may be certain adjustments for which the information will not be available at the time of the final accounting and the parties agree to readjust such amounts and make the necessary cash adjustments when such information becomes available; provided, however, that all accounts shall be deemed final two (2) years after Termination.

B. Manager shall release and transfer to Owner any of Owner’s funds which are held or controlled by Manager with respect to the Hotel with the exception of funds to be held in accordance with Section 6.04.B. and Section 11.11.G. and otherwise in accordance herewith.

C. Manager shall make available to Owner such books and records respecting the Hotel (including those from prior years, subject to Manager’s reasonable records retention policies) as will be needed by Owner to prepare the accounting statements, in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts, for the Hotel for the year in which the Termination occurs and for any subsequent year.

D. Manager shall (to the extent permitted by law) assign to Owner or to the new manager all operating licenses and permits for the Hotel which have been issued in Manager’s name (including liquor and restaurant licenses, if any); provided that if Manager has expended any of its own funds in the acquisition of any of such licenses or permits, Owner shall reimburse Manager therefor if it has not done so already.

E. Manager shall have the option, to be exercised within thirty (30) days after Termination, to purchase, at their then book value, any items of the Hotel’s Inventories and Fixed Asset Supplies as may be marked with any Marriott Trademarks. Upon Termination, all use of or right to use the Marriott Trademarks at or in connection with the Hotel shall cease forthwith, and Owner shall (i) immediately, as of the date of such Termination, place coverings over any signs or similar identification which contain any of the Marriott Trademarks, or shall otherwise render such signs or other similar identification not visible to the public; (ii) remove any such signs or similar identification from the Hotel by no later than ten (10) days after the date of Termination; and (iii) no later than ten (10) days after the date of such Termination, remove from the Hotel all Fixed Asset Supplies, Inventories and other items bearing any Marriott Trademark or remove all Marriott Trademarks from such items. If Owner has not removed such signs or other items bearing Marriott Trademarks within ten (10) days after Termination, Manager shall have the right to do so at Owner’s expense; and if Owner fails to reimburse Manager for such expense within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof from Manager to Owner, then Manager shall have the right (without affecting Manager’s other remedies under this Agreement) to withdraw the amount of such expenses from the Operating Accounts, the Reserve, or any other funds of Owner held by or under the control of Manager. Manager shall have the right to seek injunctive or other relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the foregoing provisions, and if such enforcement shall be necessary, Owner shall bear all of Manager’s costs of such enforcement, including attorneys’ fees.

F. All Software used at the Hotel which is owned by any of the Marriott Companies (or any Affiliates thereof) or the licensor of any of them is proprietary to such Marriott Company (or such Affiliate) or the licensor of any of them, and shall in all events remain the exclusive property of such Marriott Company (or such Affiliate) or the licensor of any of them, as the case may be, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer on Owner the right to use any of such Software. Manager shall have the right to remove from the Hotel without compensation to Owner any Software (including upgrades and replacements). Furthermore, upon Termination, notwithstanding Section 5.04 hereof, Manager shall be entitled to remove from the Hotel any computer equipment which is: (i) owned by a party other than Owner (without reimbursement to Owner); or (ii) owned by Owner, but utilized as part of a centralized reservation or property management system (with reimbursement to Owner of all previous expenditures made by Owner with respect to such equipment, subject to a reasonable allowance for depreciation). Manager shall provide Owner hard copies (or to the extent technologically feasible, the electronic transfer) of guest information contained on such Software, sufficient to allow Owner to service existing guests of the Hotel as of the Termination date and bookings (including group and transient business) on dates following the Termination of this Agreement.

G. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, other than a Termination by reason of an Event of Default of Manager hereunder, a reasonable reserve shall be established from Gross Revenues to reimburse Manager for all costs and expenses incurred by Manager in terminating its employees at the Hotel, such as severance pay, unemployment compensation, employment relocation, and other employee liability costs arising out of the termination of employment of Manager’s employees at the Hotel. If Gross Revenues are insufficient to meet the requirements of such reserve, then Owner shall deliver to Manager, within ten (10) days after receipt of Manager’s written request therefor, the sums necessary to establish such reserve; and if Owner fails to timely deliver such sums to Manager, Manager shall have the right (without affecting Manager’s other remedies under this Agreement) to withdraw the amount of such expenses from the Operating Accounts, the Reserve, or any other funds of Owner held by or under the control of Manager.

H. Other than in connection with a Termination by reason of an Event of Default of Manager hereunder, Owner shall cause the entity which shall succeed Manager as the operator of the Hotel to hire a sufficient number of the employees at the Hotel to avoid the occurrence, in connection with such Termination, of a “closing” under the WARN Act.

I. Various other actions shall be taken, as described in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the actions described in Section 4.05 and Section 6.04.B.

J. Manager shall peacefully vacate and surrender the Hotel to Owner.

The provisions of this Section 11.11 shall survive Termination.

11.12 Trademarks and Intellectual Property

A. During the Term, the Hotel shall be known as a “Courtyard by Marriott” or a “Marriott Courtyard,” with such alternative identification determined by Manager from time to

time as may be necessary to provide local or specific geographic definition to the name of the Hotel. However, if the name of the Courtyard by Marriott system of hotels is changed, Manager will have the right to change the name of the Hotel to conform thereto.

B. Owner acknowledges that Manager and its Affiliates are the sole and exclusive owners of all rights, title and interest to the Marriott Trademarks, which shall in all events remain the exclusive property of Manager (or one of its Affiliates). All use of the Marriott Trademarks at or in connection with the Hotel, or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, shall be made solely by and inure solely to the benefit of Manager and its Affiliates. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to grant Owner any right of ownership in or right to use or license others to use the Marriott Trademarks. Except for disclosure to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, Owner may not use the Marriott Trademarks without the prior written consent of Manager, which may be withheld in Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, in any manner whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following:

11.13 Waiver

The failure of either party to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or to exercise any option, right or remedy contained in this Agreement, shall not be construed as a waiver or as a relinquishment for the future of such term, provision, option, right or remedy, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect. No waiver by either party of any term or provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by such party.

11.14 Partial Invalidity

If any portion of any term or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable, at any time or to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

No inferences shall be drawn from the fact that the final, duly executed Agreement differs in any respect from any previous draft hereof.

11.17 Intentionally Deleted

11.18 Estoppel Certificates

Each party to this Agreement shall at any time and from time to time, upon not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior notice from the other party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to such other party, or to any third party specified by such other party, a statement in writing: (a)

certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating the modifications); and (b) stating to the best knowledge of the certifying party (i) whether or not there is a continuing Default or Event of Default by the non-certifying party in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement, (ii) whether or not there shall have occurred any event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become a Default or Event of Default, and, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of Default or occurrence of which the certifying party may have knowledge; (iii) the amount, if any, of the Additional Capital Investment; (iv) the amount, if any, of any past due fees or other past due amounts owed to Manager; and (v) whether or not there are any past due and unpaid obligations with respect to the Hotel, other than in the ordinary course of business.

11.19 Affiliates

Manager shall be entitled to contract with companies that are Affiliates (or companies in which Manager has an ownership interest if such interest is not sufficient to make such a company an Affiliate) to provide goods and/or services to the Hotel; provided that the prices and/or terms for such goods and/or services are competitive. Additionally, Manager may contract for the purchase of goods and services for the Hotel with third parties that have other contractual relationships with Manager, Marriott and their Affiliates, so long as the prices and terms are competitive. In determining, pursuant to the foregoing, whether such prices and/or terms are competitive, they will be compared to the prices and/or terms which would be available to Owner from reputable and qualified parties for goods and/or services of similar quality, and the goods and/or services which are being purchased shall be grouped in reasonable categories, rather than being compared item by item. Any dispute as to whether prices and/or terms are competitive shall be referred to the Expert as provided in Section 11.21. The prices paid may include overhead and the allowance of a reasonable return to Manager’s Affiliates (or companies in which Manager has an ownership interest if such interest is not sufficient to make such a company an Affiliate). Owner acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to any purchases of goods or services pursuant to this Section 11.19 and subject to the foregoing qualification that prices and/or terms are competitive, Manager’s Affiliates may retain for their own benefit any allowances, credits, rebates, commissions and discounts received with respect to any such purchases.

The decision of the Expert shall be final and binding on the parties and shall not be capable of challenge, whether by arbitration, in court or otherwise;

B. Each party shall be entitled to make written submissions to the Expert, and if a party makes any submission it shall also provide a copy to the other party and the other party shall have the right to comment on such submission.

The terms of engagement of the Expert shall include an obligation on the part of the Expert to: (i) notify the parties in writing of his decision within forty-five (45) days from the date on which the Expert has been selected (or such other period as the parties may agree or as set forth herein); and (ii) establish a timetable for the making of submissions and replies.

11.22 Restrictions on Operating the Hotel in Accordance with System Standards

In the event of either (i) a Legal Requirement, including an order, judgment or directive by a court or administrative body which is issued in connection with any Litigation involving Owner, or (ii) any action taken by a Mortgagee in connection with a Foreclosure, which in either case restricts or prevents Manager, in a material and adverse manner, from operating the Hotel in accordance with System Standards (including without limitation, any restrictions on expenditures by Manager from the Operating Accounts or from the Reserve, other than restrictions which are set forth in this Agreement), Manager shall be entitled, at its option, to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to Owner.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Such executed counterparts may be delivered by facsimile which, upon transmission to the other party, shall have the same force and effect as delivery of the original signed counterpart. The submission of an unsigned copy of this Agreement or an electronic instrument with or without electronic signature to either party shall not constitute an offer or acceptance. This Agreement shall become effective and binding only upon execution and delivery of this Agreement in non-electronic form by both parties in accordance with this Section 11.24.

11.25 Extraordinary Events

If either Owner’s or Manager’s failure to conform to, keep, perform, fulfill, or satisfy any representation, warranty, covenant, undertaking, obligation, standard, test, or condition set forth in this Agreement, other than an obligation to make monetary payments or provide monetary funding, is caused in whole or in part by one or more Extraordinary Events, such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default or Default under this Agreement, and such failure shall be excused for as long as the failure is caused in whole or in part by such Extraordinary Event(s). In order to have any such failure excused pursuant to this Section, the party claiming that an Extraordinary Event caused such failure must notify the other party in writing within ninety (90) days after the Extraordinary Event first begins to affect its performance.

This Agreement, together with any other writings signed by the parties expressly stated to be supplemental hereto (including, without limitation, the Owner Agreement) and together with any instruments to be executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior understandings and writings, and may be changed only by a written non-electronic instrument that has been duly executed by the non-electronic (which shall not be deemed to exclude facsimile) signature of an authorized representative of the parties hereto.
