Marriott and Purchaser shall recalculate the Estimated Total Working Capital, utilizing the definition of Working Capital set forth in this Agreement for all purposes and calculations contemplated in this Section 3.3(a). At Closing, the Unadjusted Purchase Price shall be: (i) increased (or decreased) by the amount by which the Estimated Total Working Capital applicable to the Hotels is more (or less) than $0; (ii) increased (or decreased) by the amount by which the Estimated North American Capex applicable to the Hotels is more (or less) than the Target North American Capex Amount as set forth on Schedule 3.3(a); and (iii) increased by the amount of the Estimated PIP Expenditures.

Adjusted Working Capital shall mean, for each Hotel, the difference, if any, by which (i) the Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital for such Hotel is less than (ii) the Initial Required Working Capital for such Hotel. If the Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital for any Hotel is less than $0, Purchaser shall fund the amount of such Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital deficit at Closing and shall also fund the applicable Initial Required Working Capital for such Hotel. If the Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital for any Hotel is less than $0 and the Initial Required Working Capital for such Hotel is less than $0,

-17-

Purchaser shall fund the amount equal to the difference between the negative Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital and the negative Initial Required Working Capital at Closing. Adjusted Estimated Total Working Capital shall mean, for each Hotel, the amount equal to (i) the Estimated Total Working Capital for such Hotel, minus (ii) the value of the Miscellaneous Operating Supplies included in the calculation of the Estimated Total Working Capital for such Hotel. Initial Required Working Capital shall mean, with respect to each Hotel, the amount set forth on Schedule 3.3(b) for such Hotel. Marriott and Purchaser shall recalculate the Estimated Total Working Capital utilizing the definition of Working Capital set forth in this Agreement for all purposes and calculations contemplated in this Section 3.2(b).

(c) At Closing, with respect to the Westchester Renaissance only, the Unadjusted Purchase Price shall be further adjusted by a reduction equal to the product of (i) the amount of all trade receivables that are aged 60 days or more, times (ii) 0.85 (the “Aged Receivables”). To make such adjustment, Marriott shall provide a list of such Aged Receivables, with specific identification of same. Subsequent to Closing, the parties agree that to the extent the Aged Receivables are collected, such amounts shall not be included as part of the revenues of the Westchester Renaissance, but rather shall be paid directly to Marriott. The parties agree that the staff of the Westchester Renaissance may be used to collect such receivables, as part of their ordinary course of duties and without prioritization of such receivables over any others. Marriott shall be responsible for tracking payment of the Aged Receivables and shall collect only upon payment of specific Aged Receivables. The foregoing provisions may, at the election of either party, be included in the Hotel Management Agreement for the Westchester Renaissance.

Section 3.4 Post-Closing Adjustments. Section 3.3 of the CTF Agreement contemplates that, and provides a procedure for, CTF and Marriott to arrive at certain post-closing adjustments to the Working Capital. Marriott and Purchaser shall recalculate the Estimated Total Working Capital utilizing the definition of Working Capital set forth in this Agreement for all purposes and calculations contemplated in this Section 3.4. Marriott, with the assistance of Purchaser, shall prepare, and submit, the Closing Statements defined and described in Section 3.3 of the CTF Agreement including information and documentation provided by Purchaser within sufficient time in order for Marriott to comply with the time requirements set forth in Section 3.3 of the CTF Agreement. Upon receipt of the final report from the Accounting Firm as described in Section 3.3(c) of the CTF Agreement, which such report shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, either Marriott shall cause CTF to transfer to Purchaser or Purchaser shall transfer to CTF, as the case may be, by wire transfer as described in Section 3.3(c) of the CTF Agreement, the difference between the adjustments made to the Unadjusted Purchase Price (pursuant to Section 3.3 above) and the amounts set forth in the Closing Statements (as may be adjusted by the Accounting Firm), along with interest as set forth in Section 3.3(c) of the CTF Agreement.

Section 3.5 Certain Transaction Costs.

(a) For the Hotels listed on Schedules 2.1(a) and (c), CTF shall be allocated one-half of the Transfer Taxes which would be payable if such Hotels were transferred pursuant to the Target Sale at the Preliminary Allocated Price. For the Hotels listed on Schedule 2.1(b), CTF shall be allocated one-half of the Transfer Taxes payable pursuant to the Lease Assignment & Sale at the Preliminary Allocated Price. Schedule 3.5 sets forth the parties’ initial estimate of the Transfer Taxes to be incurred in connection with the Fee Sale, Target Sale and Lease Assignment & Sale as well as the estimated amount thereof to be allocated to CTF and Purchaser. Schedule 3.5 shall be adjusted by CTF, Marriott and Purchaser from time-to-time until the Closing to reflect any elections made by Marriott under the CTF Agreement and calculations made by the Title Company based upon the actual amount of Transfer Taxes due and payable in the applicable jurisdictions as of the Closing Date.

(b) Regardless of Law or convention, it shall be the responsibility of Purchaser to pay or cause to be paid all Transfer Taxes and otherwise complete and file all Tax Returns in connection therewith in a timely manner. Marriott shall, and shall cause CTF to, cooperate with Purchaser as reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns. The Unadjusted Purchase Price shall be reduced at Closing by the total amount of Transfer Taxes allocated to CTF that are actually paid or payable by Purchaser, and the Preliminary Allocated Price related to each Hotel Interest affected thereby shall be reduced accordingly.

Section 3.6 Structural and Environmental Consultants. Marriott has retained third party consultants (the “Structural and Environmental Consultants”) to perform structural and environmental analyses of the Hotels and Marriott has provided Purchaser with copies of all of the reports and work product prepared by the Structural and Environmental Consultants with regard to the Hotels.

Section 3.7 Purchase Price Allocation.

(a) The parties have agreed upon the amount of the Preliminary Allocated Price for CTF’s interest in each of the Hotels and Minority Owned Entities, which amounts are set forth on Schedules 2.1(a)-(d). By written notice to Marriott given not less than fourteen (14) Business Days prior to the Closing, Purchaser may modify the Preliminary Allocated Price for any such interest within the range permitted in Schedules 2.1(a)-(d), as applicable (each such Preliminary Allocated Price as modified in the “Closing Allocated Price”), provided, however, that the total amount of all Closing Allocated Prices shall at all times equal the Unadjusted Purchase Price as it may be

-19-

adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Closing Allocated Price of each property shall be set forth on Schedules 2.1(a)-(d) which shall be delivered by Purchaser to Marriott two (2) Business Days prior to Closing, provided, however, that to the extent such allocations result in an increase in Transfer Taxes allocated to CTF as set forth on Schedule 3.5 of the CTF Agreement, such difference shall be borne by the Purchaser. In the event of any purchase price adjustment hereunder, Marriott and Purchaser agree to adjust any previously agreed purchase price allocation to reflect such purchase price adjustment and to file subsequent Tax Returns consistent with such agreed allocation.

(b) The Purchaser and Marriott agree that the Closing Allocated Price for each Hotel Interest shall be adjusted to reflect the Adjusted Purchase Price as determined at the Closing. For each Hotel Interest, the purchase of which is treated as an asset purchase for United States federal income tax purposes, the Adjusted Purchase Price, as so adjusted, plus any liabilities attributable to such Hotel Interest that are liabilities for United States tax purposes, shall be allocated for federal income tax purposes among the assets acquired thereby as agreed to by the parties and, if no agreement is reached, as reasonably determined by each of the parties. Subject to the requirements of applicable Law, the Purchaser and Marriott and each of their Affiliates, shall file all Tax Returns, consistent with the Closing Allocated Price adjusted to take into account purchase price adjustments at the Closing and with any other allocation that is agreed in respect of a particular Hotel Interest. In the event of any purchase price adjustment hereunder, Marriott and the Purchaser agree to adjust any previously agreed Purchase Price allocation to reflect such purchase price adjustment and to file Tax Returns consistent with such agreed allocation.

(b) The Closing shall occur on June 17, 2005, provided, however, that if the conditions to Closing of Marriott or Purchaser have not been satisfied as of that date, or upon notice given by Purchaser no later than June 7, 2005, or by Marriott no later than June 8, 2005, then the Closing shall occur not later than June 30, 2005, provided further, however, if all the conditions of both parties to the Closing have been satisfied, except that CTF shall not have received the requisite consent pursuant to the Offer and Solicitation to allow for the release of the liens on the Property securing the Notes, as more fully set forth in Article 4 of the CTF Agreement and as those terms are described and defined in the CTF Agreement, and Marriott exercises its one-time option to postpone the Closing to November 15, 2005 under Section 3.11 of the CTF Agreement, then the Closing hereunder shall also be postponed until November 15, 2005; provided further still, however, if the Closing with respect to any Hotel is delayed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Closing for such Hotel shall occur as soon as practicable following the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing with respect to such Hotel. The day on which a Closing takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

-20-

(c) If the Closing does not occur by June 30, 2005, because CTF did not receive the requisite consent as described in Section 3.8(b), and after Purchaser provides written notice to Marriott no later than July 6, 2005 of Purchaser’s intention to postpone Closing to November 15, 2005, Marriott elects not to exercise its one-time option to postpone the Closing to November 15, 2005 pursuant to Section 3.11 of the CTF Agreement and Marriott elects instead to terminate the CTF Agreement, but Purchaser is ready, willing and able to close on June 30, 2005, then Marriott will refund the Deposit and all interest thereon to Purchaser and pay Purchaser, Purchaser’s Out of Pocket Costs not to exceed Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000). Failure on the part of Purchaser to notify Marriott on or before July 6, 2005 of its intention to postpone Closing, shall be deemed Purchaser’s election not to postpone Closing and not to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Article 12 hereof. Purchaser being ready, willing and able to close for the purposes of this Section 3.8 shall mean that Purchaser shall have (i) satisfied the condition to Marriott’s obligation to close set forth in Section 9.4(a), (ii) tendered all of Purchaser’s Closing Deliveries, and (iii) shall have funding commitments for the payment of the entire Purchase Price such that Purchaser would have been in a position to pay the entire Purchase Price had the Closing occurred on June 30, 2005 and all conditions under this Agreement to Purchaser’s obligations had been satisfied. As used herein, “Purchaser’s Out of Pocket Costs” means all Purchaser’s third party out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, all travel costs and expenses, all amounts expended by Purchaser for its investigation of the Hotels, including consulting fees and costs and legal fees and costs, all amounts expended by Purchaser, including, but not limited to, legal fees and costs, in the negotiation of this Agreement, the CTF Agreement, the management agreement with Marriott, and the other documents and instruments in connection with this Transaction, and all fees and costs (including costs incurred to lock or cap rates of interest) paid by Purchaser to its lenders and potential lenders, including all amounts expended as liquidated damages to the lenders.

(d) If a Closing occurs after June 17, 2005 with respect to Hotels included in such Closing:

(i) all of the Transactions shall be deemed to be effective as of Marriott’s most recently ended Accounting Period prior to the Closing Date (for such Closing, the “Effective Date”);

(ii) Purchaser shall pay daily interest on the sum of the Preliminary Allocated Price of the Hotels from and including the Effective Date but not including the Closing Date, at a rate equal to the Closing Interest Rate; and

(iii) with respect to the Hotels located in the United States, Marriott shall cause CTF to, or the Purchaser shall, as the case may be, account and pay for the difference between (x) all deposits to CTF’s bank accounts arising from Hotel operations from the close of business on the Effective Date through the Closing Date, and (y) all checks issued, wire transfers and other disbursements from CTF’s bank accounts

-21-

arising from Hotel operations from the close of business on the Effective Date through the Closing Date, which would have been disbursed by Marriott if the Closing had occurred on the Effective Date (the “Cash True-Up”).

(e) On or before a Closing, (i) the Purchaser shall deliver to the Title Company by wire transfer to a bank escrow account specified by the Title Company the amount of the Adjusted Purchase Price for the Hotels included in the Closing less the amount of Deposit (unless such Deposit will continue to be held by the Title Company pursuant to Schedule 9.2(d)) and all interest accrued thereon in immediately available funds in United States dollars (such amount to be shown on a settlement memorandum detailing required adjustments to the Unadjusted Purchase Price) and such other sums required to be paid by Purchaser hereunder, including Transfer Taxes and other costs of Closing, (ii) Marriott shall deliver to the Title Company Marriott’s Closing Deliveries and all other documents required by the Purchaser of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be delivered by Marriott and such other parties as are necessary and appropriate, each such Deliveries and/or document to be executed by Marriott and such other parties as are necessary and appropriate and to be held in escrow by the Title Company, and (iii) the Purchaser shall deliver to the Title Company the Purchaser’s Closing Deliveries and all other documents required by the Purchaser under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be delivered by the Purchaser, each such Deliveries and/or document to be executed by the Purchaser and to be held in escrow by the Title Company following completion of the matters specified in (d)(i)-(iii) above, and upon the joint written direction of Marriott and Purchaser, the Adjusted Purchase Price and/or documents so held in escrow shall be released from escrow and disbursed and/or distributed to those Persons entitled thereto, including to those Persons required pursuant to all Ancillary Agreements. In addition, Marriott and Purchaser shall cooperate to develop procedures for the flow of funds at each Closing.

The benefits of lower tax brackets and other similar benefits shall be apportioned in making the

-51-

calculation of such allocated portions on the basis of the number of days in the Purchaser’s and Marriott’s holding periods for the taxable period beginning before and ending after the Effective Date.

Section 8.5 Contests. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Contest” is any audit, court proceeding or other dispute with respect to any tax matter that affects a Hotel. Unless the Purchaser has previously received written notice from Marriott of the existence of such Contest, the Purchaser shall give written notice to Marriott of the existence of any Contest relating to a tax matter that is Marriott’s responsibility under Section 8.2 within ten (10) days from the receipt by the Purchaser of any written notice of such Contest, but no failure to give such notice shall relieve Marriott of any liability hereunder. Unless Marriott has previously received written notice from the Purchaser of the existence of such Contest, Marriott shall give written notice to the Purchaser of the existence of any Contest for which the Purchaser has responsibility within ten (10) days from the receipt by Marriott of any written notice of such Contest. Marriott shall, at its election, have the right to represent a Hotel’s interests in any Contest relating to a Tax matter arising in a period ending on or before the Effective Date, to employ counsel of its choice at its expense and to control the conduct of such Contest, including settlement or other disposition thereof; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall have the right to consult with Marriott regarding any such Contest that may affect such Hotel for any periods ending after the Effective Date at the Purchaser’s own expense and provided, further, that any settlement or other disposition of any such Contest may only be with the consent of the Purchaser, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 8.6 Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Purchaser, on the one hand, and Marriott, on the other, agree, in each case at no cost to the other party, to cooperate with the other and the other’s Representatives in a prompt and timely manner in connection with any Contest. Such cooperation shall include, but not be limited to, making available to the other party, during normal business hours, all books, records, Tax Returns, documents, files, other information (including working papers and schedules), officers or employees (without substantial interruption of employment) or other relevant information necessary or useful in connection with any Contest requiring any such books, records and files. The Purchaser, on the one hand, and Marriott, on the other, agree, in each case at no cost to the other party, to cooperate fully in a prompt and timely manner with the other and the other’s Representatives, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 8.1 and in connection with any Contest.

-52-

such books and records and, if the Purchaser so requests, Marriott shall allow the Purchaser to take possession of such books and records. Marriott and the Purchaser further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

Section 8.7 Price Adjustment. All amounts paid pursuant to this Agreement by one party to another party (other than interest payments) shall be treated by such parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, to the extent appropriate and permitted by law.

Section 8.8 After-Tax Basis.

Section 8.9 Elections. Marriott and its Affiliates shall cooperate fully with the Purchaser, to the extent necessary and to the extent reasonably requested by the Purchaser, in connection with the filing of any elections relating to Taxes which become available to the Purchaser or its Affiliates as a result of the transactions described in this Agreement; provided, however, that Marriott and its Affiliates shall not be obligated to consent to an election if such election would increase the amount of Taxes it is required to pay unless the parties otherwise agree.

Section 8.10 Survival. All obligations under this Article 8 shall survive the Closing hereunder and continue until 90 days following the expiration of the period of limitations applicable to the related Tax. If a Tax claim that is raised by one party during the survival period is disputed by the other party, such claim shall survive the dispute between the parties is resolved.

ARTICLE 9. TITLE COMMITMENT AND SURVEY REVIEW PROCESS; CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

Section 9.1 Title Commitment and Survey Review Process.

(a) Title Review Process. Purchaser and Marriott have each initiated the title review process consisting of, with respect to the Leased Real Property, the Owned Real Property and the real property owned by any Minority Owned Entity located in the United States (the “Real Properties”), (A) ordering from the Title Company a Uniform Commercial Code financing statement search including a search on any Target and a commitment for owner’s title insurance, on such policy form as is available in the applicable jurisdiction as selected by Purchaser, and (B) ordering from Xxxx & Xxxxx Corporation National Surveyors Network (“Surveyor”) an ALTA survey with such instructions regarding information to be shown and the scope of certification as Purchaser shall determine. The Uniform Commercial Code financing statement search results and

-53-

the title commitments and surveys obtained by Purchaser, as revised or updated from time to time, are herein referred to as “Title Materials.” Copies of all Title Materials shall be provided to Marriott’s counsel as and when received, which copies shall not be required to be returned. During the period from the date of this Agreement and ending at 11:59 pm May 3, 2005 (the “Objection Period”), Purchaser shall notify Marriott in writing of those matters relating to title disclosed to Purchaser in the Title Materials or otherwise disclosed in materials received by Purchaser at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to 11:59 pm, May 3, 2005 to which Purchaser objects (including, for example, the size or configuration of any Real Properties which are not acceptable to Purchaser), and that are not Permitted Encumbrances set forth in items (b)-(e) of the definition thereof (collectively, the “Purchaser’s Objections”). As to matters relating to title disclosed in the Title Materials or otherwise disclosed in materials received by Purchaser within forty-eight (48) hours prior to 11:59 pm, May 3, 2005, Purchaser shall notify Marriott in writing of its Title Objections within forty-eight (48) hours of its receipt of such materials, but in no event later than 11:59 pm, May 5, 2005. Purchaser shall endeavor to deliver the Purchaser’s Objections in a reasonably expeditious manner and on a property-by-property basis commencing no later than the date hereof and thereafter as soon as reasonably practical after the date Purchaser receives the applicable portion of the Title Materials. Purchaser shall not be deemed to waive its right to make Purchaser’s Objections even if Purchaser’s Objections are not made in a reasonably expeditious manner so long as Purchaser’s Objections are made during the Objection Period. At Closing Purchaser shall reimburse Marriott for all costs and expenses incurred or expended by Marriott to the Title Company and/or Surveyor in connection with obtaining the Title Materials with regard to the Real Properties.

(b) Title Policies. Prior to the expiration of the Objection Period, Purchaser shall obtain from the Title Company, with respect to the Leased Real Property and the Owned Real Property, in all jurisdictions where available, a commitment to insure accompanied by a Pro Forma title policy, in form acceptable to Purchaser (each, a “Pro Forma”). Each Pro Forma shall be written on an ALTA Form B (1970, amended 10/17/70, or if the 1970, amended 10/17/70 form is not available, the 1992 form with no creditors’ rights exclusion (except in States or jurisdictions where such form or deletion is not permitted)) or on such similar form as is available in the applicable jurisdiction, insuring extended owner’s title coverage and shall evidence Title Company commitment, upon compliance with the Title Company’s requirements as set forth in the Title Company’s commitments to insure (the “Requirements”), to insure title to the Real Property that is the subject of any Pro Forma, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances. The Pro Formas shall be in form and substance acceptable to Purchaser, and shall include all endorsements reasonably required by Purchaser. Purchaser shall deliver all Pro Formas and Requirements (including the form of any affidavits or certifications required to be executed by Marriott or CTF in satisfaction of a Requirement) to Marriott’s counsel no later than the expiration of the Objection Period.

(c) Title Cure Period. Upon the termination of the Objection Period, except for the Purchaser’s Objections if the same are timely raised, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the form and substance of all matters disclosed in the Title

-54-

Materials which shall become Permitted Encumbrances for all purposes under the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. Following the Objection Period, and without any obligation to do so, Marriott shall have until May 16, 2005, or by delivery of written notice to Purchaser by Marriott, until such later date, but not beyond May 23, 2005 (as such date may have been extended, the “Title Cure Period”) to cause CTF to elect to cure or elect not to cure any or all matters raised in Purchaser’s objections; provided, however, CTF agrees to have released by Closing the liens securing any Debt that is not to be assumed by Marriott or Purchaser pursuant to the terms of the CTF Agreement or this Agreement, as applicable. If CTF elects to cure such Title Objections, the cure must be sufficient for the Title Company to remove the applicable Title Objection from the exceptions to title set forth in the applicable Pro Forma.

(d) Termination of Title Cure Period. If, for any reason, CTF is unable or at CTF’s sole election, unwilling to take such actions as may be required to cause the matter identified in Purchaser’s Objections to be cured or removed so as to convey title to the Real Properties consistent with the Pro Formas, or if CTF objects to any Requirement or any other obligation which it may incur in connection with the issuance of the Pro Forma title policies, Marriott shall give Purchaser notice thereof prior to the expiration of the Title Cure Period; it being understood and agreed that the failure of Marriott to timely give such notice shall be deemed an election by CTF not to remedy such matters. If CTF shall elect not (or be deemed to elect not) to remove any matter identified in Purchaser’s Objections, Purchaser may, in the exercise of its sole discretion either: (i) close the Transaction with respect to the Real Properties subject to the Purchaser’s Objections (that CTF will not cure) without abatement of the Unadjusted Purchase Price, in which event: (A) the Purchaser’s Objections that CTF will not cure shall be, and be deemed to be, for all purposes, Permitted Encumbrances; (B) the Purchaser shall close the Transactions notwithstanding the existence of any of the Purchaser’s Objections that CTF will not cure; and (C) neither CTF nor Marriott shall have any obligation or liability whatsoever after the Closing with respect to CTF’s failure to cause any of the Purchaser’s Objections to be eliminated; or (ii) terminate this Agreement by written notice given to Marriott within four (4) calendar days after expiration of the Title Cure Period, in which event this Agreement shall terminate, the Deposit and all interest accrued thereon shall be returned to Purchaser and neither party hereto shall have any further obligations thereunder other than those obligations expressly stated herein to survive the termination of this Agreement. In the event Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing, the Pro Formas shall be revised to (1) delete those Requirements objected to by CTF and (2) add Purchaser’s Objections that CTF will not cure so that the Pro Formas shall be consistent with the quality of title accepted or deemed accepted by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.1(d).

(e) Requirement to Eliminate Purchaser’s Objections; Requirement to Remove Liens’ Additional Title Matters. It is expressly understood that unless CTF expressly agrees, in the exercise of its sole discretion, to cure or remove a matter identified in the Purchaser’s Objections prior to Closing, neither CTF nor Marriott shall be required to bring any action, institute any proceeding, or otherwise incur any costs or expenses in order to attempt to eliminate any of the Purchaser’s Objections or to

-55-

otherwise cause title to the Real Properties to comport with the terms of this Agreement on the Closing Date; provided, however, that Marriott shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cause CTF to remove (i) any liens that are filed against the Real Properties during the period after the expiration of the Title Cure Period and before Closing but only if they are recorded by CTF or caused by CTF’s actions or failure to act; and (ii) any liens securing Debt not assumed by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or under the terms of the CTF Agreement. Should matters relative to title, other than liens CTF is obligated to remove pursuant to the preceding sentence, be discovered from any update of the Title Materials received by Purchaser or otherwise after the expiration of the Objection Period that were not disclosed in the Title Materials received by the Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Objection Period (collectively, the “New Title Matters”), the Purchaser shall have the right to notify Marriott in writing of any new Title Matters which are not Permitted Encumbrances set forth in items (b)-(e) of the definition thereof to which the Purchaser objects provided that Purchaser notifies Marriott in writing of its objection within twenty-four (24) hours after such matter is disclosed to Purchaser. Marriott shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cause CTF to remove any New Title Matters that are filed against any of the Real Properties during the period after the expiration of the Title Cure Period and before Closing but only if they are recorded by CTF or caused by CTF’s actions or failure to act. With respect to all other new Title Matters, Marriott shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cause CTF within five (5) days after receipt of notice of the New Title Matters, to advise Marriott whether CTF will cure such New Title Matters prior to the Closing Date and Marriott will promptly notify Purchaser of CTF’s response. Should CTF fail to cure or remove prior to the Closing Date any New Title Matter which is objected to by Purchaser, and should such New Title Matter materially and adversely impair the value or use of any of the Real Properties to which such objection relates, such failure shall constitute a failure of a condition to Purchaser’s obligation to proceed to Closing with respect to the Real Properties affected by such New Title Matters, and Purchaser may, at its election, determine not to close with respect to such Real Properties. All other New Title Matters which are not cured or removed by CTF shall be deemed waived by the Purchaser and shall constitute Permitted Encumbrances for all purposes under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. If the Purchaser elects not to close with respect to any Real Properties in accordance with Section 9.1(e), in such case, the Unadjusted Purchase Price shall be decreased by the Preliminary Allocated Price applicable to any such Real Properties.

(f) Related Fees, Cost and Expenses. All the fees, costs and expenses associated with the Purchaser’s procurement, preparation, delivery and review of the Title Materials, the issuance of title policies and any endorsements related thereto shall be for the account of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 13.1 herein.

(g) Marriott Assurance. Marriott covenants and agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with the Title Materials and the title review process and will cause CTF to provide such affidavits or other documents and information as Purchaser may reasonably require in order to obtain affirmative endorsements or other assurances available under local practice as the Purchaser may require, including non-imputation

-56-

endorsements, where applicable, provided, however, that (i) all of the foregoing requirements are commercially reasonable, (ii) Marriott shall not be obligated to cause CTF to provide any affidavit, certification or indemnification to the Title Company that causes CTF to incur any liability in excess of CTF’s liability under the CTF Agreement, and (iii) Marriott shall not be obligated to cause CTF to provide any affidavit, certification or indemnification with respect to the Minority Owned Entities.

(h) Form of Fee Sale Transfer and Conveyance Documents. Seven (7) days prior to the expiration of the Objection Period, Purchaser shall forward to Marriott the proposed form of the deeds, bills of sale, assignments, certificates, affidavits and such other instruments and documents (excluding any documents previously provided in connection with the Requirements) (collectively, “Proposed Conveyance Documents”) as may be reasonably necessary in order to consummate the Transactions and facilitate the issuance by the Title Company of the title insurance policies reasonably requested by Purchaser and facilitate the obtaining of other commercially reasonable assurances available under local practice. Marriott and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the final form of the Proposed Conveyance Documents on or prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser and Marriott acknowledge and agree that the warranty of title set forth in the various deeds and other conveyancing documents shall be in accordance with the commercially reasonable customary practices of the applicable jurisdictions but in all cases sufficient to enable the Title Company to issue the title policies in the forms of the Pro Formas. The warranties of title contained in the various deeds shall not be subject to the provision of Section 10.8(b) of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring Marriott to cause CTF to make any representations, warranties or covenants in the Proposed Conveyance Documents other than those contained in Article 5 and Article 7 of the CTF Agreement.

Section 9.2 Lack of Consents or Estoppels for Certain Leasehold Interests.

(a) Matters concerning the consents for the Transfer of the interests in the Minority Owned Entities are addressed in Schedule 9.2(d).

(b) If any Estoppel Certificate satisfying the requirements of Section 7.9(d) is not obtained prior to the Closing Date or if obtained, contains information which is inconsistent with Marriott’s representations and warranties set forth herein in Article 5 and 5A, then Purchaser shall elect to either: (i) proceed with Closing with respect to the applicable Hotel or Hotels and waive any right to require the receipt of an Estoppel Certificate and the right to make a claim for indemnification under Article 10 based upon the facts or circumstances disclosed by the applicable Estoppel Certificate, or (ii) elect not to proceed with Closing with respect to the applicable Hotel or Hotels (in which case the Unadjusted Purchase Price shall be decreased by the Preliminary Allocated Price for such Hotel or Hotels) in order to permit Marriott a period of time during which to attempt to obtain an Estoppel Certificate in the form required hereby. In the event that Purchaser elects under clause (ii) above to permit Marriott additional time to obtain an Estoppel Certificate and Marriott fails to deliver an Estoppel Certificate satisfying the requirements of Section 7.9(e) to Purchaser prior to December 31, 2005, then Purchaser

-57-

shall either (A) elect not to proceed to Closing with respect to the applicable Hotel or Hotels or (B) shall proceed to consummate the Transaction with respect to the applicable Hotel and shall retain any rights it may have under the indemnification provisions of Article 10.

Section 9.3 General Conditions. The respective obligations of the Purchaser and Marriott to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the fulfillment, at or prior to the Closing, of each of the following conditions, any of which may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be waived in writing by either party in its sole discretion (provided, that such waiver shall only be effective as to the obligations of such party):

ARTICLE 10. INDEMNIFICATION.

Section 10.1 Pass-Through Representations.

(a) The representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1 through 4.17 hereof are substantially identical to those certain representations and warranties made by CTF to Marriott in Sections 5.1 through 5.17 of the CTF Agreement (the “Pass Through Representations”). Purchaser acknowledges that Marriott may have no direct or actual knowledge of the facts contained in certain of the Pass Through Representations and that except as set forth in Section 5.18A, Marriott is relying exclusively on the correctness of the Pass Through Representations of CTF in making the Pass Through Representations to Purchaser. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Marriott’s liability to Purchaser for any Breach of the Pass Through Representations shall be limited to the actual monetary damages or other relief received by Marriott based on the breach of the Pass Through Representations by CTF. Except as set forth in this Section 10.1(a)-10.1(b), Marriott shall have no liability or obligation to Purchaser for any Breach by Marriott of the Pass Through Representations.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Breach of the Pass Through Representations and upon Purchaser making a claim against Marriott, Marriott shall exercise any and all rights and remedies available to Marriott under the CTF Agreement or at law or in equity (i) to bring against CTF a claim for indemnification and institute litigation to enforce such claim to the same extent as made by Purchaser against Marriott (but only to, and in the manner permitted by the CTF Agreement and subject to the limitations of Article 10 of the CTF Agreement, which for the avoidance of doubt, exempts Tax matters from any such limitations imposed by Article 10 of the CTF Agreement) (a “Mirror Claim”); and (ii) to seek as damages in the Mirror Claim, all Losses of the Purchaser arising from the Mirror Claim (but only to in the manner permitted by this Agreement and subject to the limitations of Article 10 as aforesaid). In taking any action against CTF, Purchaser shall have the right to select counsel and to manage any and all claims, actions, causes of action and/or litigation which Marriott may pursue in order to enforce its rights hereunder. Marriott shall cooperate fully with Purchaser in Purchaser’s efforts to enforce its right based on a Breach of the Pass Through Representations. Purchaser shall be responsible for, and shall pay all of Purchaser’s reasonable expenses which Purchaser may suffer, incur or expend in its efforts to enforce its rights against CTF, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees, fees of experts, and court costs and may include such costs as a part of its claim for damages.

Section 10.2 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Indemnities. The representations, warranties and covenants of Marriott and the Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until April 30, 2007, provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 5.2, 5.3(a)-(e), 7.4 and 7.11 shall survive indefinitely. Survival of the representations and warranties in Sections 5.16 and 5.16A shall be governed by the provisions of Section 8.9.

-60-

Section 10.3 Indemnification by Marriott. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 10, Marriott shall save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser (including the Targets and their Subsidiaries) and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, interest, awards, judgments, penalties, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (hereinafter collectively, “Losses”), incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the foregoing to the extent arising out of or resulting from:

(a) any breach of any material representation or warranty made by Marriott contained in this Agreement other than the Pass Through Representations set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement;

(b) any breach of any material covenant or agreement by Marriott (hereinafter the “Marriott Covenants”) contained in this Agreement other than a covenant by Marriott to cause CTF to perform in any stated manner;

(c) any Third Party Claim that arises from an event that occurs prior to Closing regarding any Interest Holder other than (i) a liability reflected on the Balance Sheet of such Target to the extent of the amount so reflected, or (ii) any Assumed Liability and any other liability expressly assumed by Purchaser under this Agreement to the extent of the amount so assumed;

(d) any liability for any brokers’ or investment banking fees of Marriott or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(e) Marriott’s actions or failure to take actions where required, all obligations, penalties, liabilities and expenses under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended, or other similar state laws, arising from the Transactions,

Section 10.4 Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall save, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Marriott and its Affiliates and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Marriott Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the foregoing to the extent arising out of or resulting from:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement;

-61-

(b) any breach of any covenant or agreement by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement;

(c) any Third Party Claim which arises from an event that occurs after the Closing against any Marriott Indemnified Party with respect to the operations or ownership of the Hotels or Hotel Interests except to the extent that such claim was caused by a breach of Marriott’s obligations and duties as manager under the Hotel Management Agreements or with respect to which Marriott is otherwise responsible pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Hotel Management Agreements (in which event the terms and conditions of the Hotel Management Agreements shall govern);

(d) any Assumed Liabilities;

(e) any claim for any brokers’ or investment banking fees of the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(f) arising other than from CTF’s actions or failure to take actions where required, all obligations, penalties, liabilities and expenses under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended, or other similar laws arising from the Transactions.

Section 10.5 Procedures.

(a) In order for a Purchaser Indemnified Party or Marriott Indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand made by any Person other than Marriott and its Affiliates and the Purchaser against the Indemnified Party, including a Mirror Claim (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice thereof to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim, but in no event later than the Claims Deadline, describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim (if known) and such other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to provide as part of the initial written notice of claim, the information set forth in the preceding sentence shall not invalidate the effectiveness of the written notice provided the information is delivered in a reasonable time period thereafter. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 10 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of such Third Party Claim except as may be provided to the contrary as to a Mirror Claim in which case Purchaser shall bear all of the costs associated therewith, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying

-62-

Party with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to compromise, settle or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent unless the Indemnifying Party withdraws from the defense of such Third Party Claim or unless a final judgment from which no appeal may be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Party is entered against the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claims or proceeding pursuant to this Section 10.5 and the Indemnified Party proposes to settle such claims or proceeding prior to a final judgment thereon or to forgo any appeal with respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in the settlement or assume or reassume the defense of such claims or proceeding. The Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall conduct such defense or settlement in a manner reasonably satisfactory and effective to protect the Indemnified Party fully. The Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall keep the Indemnified Party fully advised as to its conduct of such defense or settlement, and shall not compromise or settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such settlement or compromise does not subject the Indemnified Party to any monetary liability, includes a complete, unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, and does not constitute an acknowledgement or acceptance by the Indemnified Party of fault, culpability, or responsibility of any kind. Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party’s election to defend against or settle the Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnifying Party, elect to employ its own counsel and assume control of such defense or settlement if (A) the Indemnifying Party is also a Person against whom the Third Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate; (B) the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that the Indemnified Party may have available to its one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with, different from, or in addition to one or more of those that may be available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim; (C) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such Third Party Action; (D) the Indemnifying Party shall not in fact have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party for the defense or settlement of such Third Party Action; provided, however, that the assumption of control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Action by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this sentence shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Party harmless.

-63-

(c) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party no later than the Claims Deadline, describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim (if known) and such other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to provide as part of the initial written notice of claim, the information set forth in the preceding sentence shall not invalidate the effectiveness of the written notice provided the information is provided in a reasonable time period thereafter. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 10 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of any claim pursuant to this Section 10.5(c) to (i) agree to the amount or method of determination set forth in such claim and to pay such amount to such Indemnified Party or (ii) provide the Indemnified Party with notice (a “Dispute Notice”) that it disagrees with the amount or method of determination set forth in such claim. If the Indemnifying Party has timely delivered a Dispute Notice, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, during a period 30 days from the Indemnified Party’s receipt of such Dispute Notice, negotiate to achieve resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved as provided in Section 12.9.

Section 10.6 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) No claim may be asserted against any party for breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement unless written notice of such claim is received by such party describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim on or prior to May 30, 2007 (the “Claim Deadline”) in which case such representation, warranty or covenant shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no Claims Deadline applicable to a claim raised with respect to a breach of Sections 5.2, 5.3(a)-(e), 7.4 and 7.11 hereof. In addition, no claim may be asserted against Marriott for breach of any of CTF’s or Marriott’s representations or warranties to the extent that the Title Materials contain information that is inconsistent with such representations or warranties.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement with respect to each Fee Property, Target, Leasehold Interest in a Minority Owned Entity: (i) Marriott shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification of $5,000 or less pursuant to Sections 10.1(a), 10.1(b), or 10.3 resulting from any single claim or aggregated claims arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances (the “De Minimus Amount”, (ii) Marriott shall not be liable unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from Marriott on account of all claims

-64-

equals or exceeds $50,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), at which time Marriott shall be liable for all such Losses, (iii) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered by Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising out of or relating to the causes set forth in Sections 10.3(a), 10.3(b) or 10.3(c) in relation to any single Fee Property, Target, Leasehold Interest or in a Minority Owned Entity shall equal fifty percent (50%) of the Preliminary Allocated Price in respect of such Fee Property, Target, Leasehold Interest or in such a Minority Owned Entity, as the case may be (the “Indemnification Limit”); and (iv) no party hereto shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any punitive, consequential, incidental, special or indirect damages relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnification Limit applicable to Losses related to a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant under Sections 5.2 and 5.3(a)-(e) shall be the Preliminary Allocated Price of each Target.

(c) For all purposes of this Article 10, “Losses” shall be net of (i) any insurance (other than any self-insured retention program) or other recoveries paid (subject to Section 10.8 by a third party to the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts, events or circumstances giving rise to the right of indemnification and (ii) any net Tax benefit available to such Indemnified Party or its Affiliates arising in connection with the accrual, incurrence or payment of any such Losses (including the net present value of any Tax benefit arising in subsequent taxable years).

(d) The Purchaser and Marriott shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any Third Party claim with respect to which one party is obligated to indemnify the other party hereunder, including by making Commercially Reasonably Efforts to mitigate such claim. In the event that the Purchaser or Marriott shall fail to make such Commercially Reasonably Efforts to mitigate or resolve any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the other party shall not be required to indemnify any person to the extent of any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the Purchaser or Marriott, as the case may be, had made such efforts.

(e) For purposes of this Article 10, “Losses” shall be determined in all cases without regard to any qualification or limitation with respect to “materiality” whether by reference to “in any material respect” or any other use of “material.”

Section 10.7 Tax Matters. Anything in this Article 10 to the contrary notwithstanding, the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to indemnification for any and all Tax matters shall be governed by Article 8.

Section 10.8 Assignment of Claims. If any Purchaser Indemnified Party receives any payment from Marriott in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 10.3 and the Purchaser Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against Marriott, the Purchaser Indemnified Party shall assign, on a non-recourse basis and without any representation or warranty, such of its rights to proceed against the Potential

-65-

Contributor as are necessary to permit Marriott to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment. Any payment received in respect of such claim shall be distributed, (i) first to the Purchaser Indemnified Party in the amount of any deductible or similar amount required to be paid by the Purchaser Indemnified Party prior to Marriott being required to make any payment to the Purchaser Indemnified Party, (ii) second to Marriott in an amount equal to the aggregate payments made by Marriott to the Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, plus costs and expenses incurred in investigating, defending or otherwise incurred in connection with addressing such claim and (iii) the balance, if any, to the Purchaser Indemnified Party.

Section 10.9 Disclaimer of Implied Warranties.

(a) It is the explicit intent and understanding of each party hereto that neither party hereto nor its Representatives is making any representation or warranty whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Property, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, and neither party hereto is relying on any statement, representation or warranty, oral or written, express or implied, made by the other party hereto or such other party’s Representatives, except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Each party hereto hereby agrees and acknowledges that with the exception of the various deeds which will be placed of record in the applicable real property records each of the conveyance documents contemplated hereunder and under the CTF Agreement to consummate the Transaction shall explicitly reflect the fact that the Purchaser is purchasing the applicable Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property on an “as is” condition “with all faults” and without any warranties, representations or guaranties of any kind, oral or written, express or implied, concerning the Property from or on behalf of Marriott or CTF, except as may be expressly set forth in the representations and warranties in this Agreement as contemplated under Section 9.1(g). The Purchaser acknowledges that, except as may be expressly set forth in this Agreement and the conveyance documents contemplated hereunder and under the CTF Agreement, Marriott has not, does not, and will not make any representations, warranties or guaranties, of any kind, oral or written, express or implied, concerning the Property including, without limitation (i) the quality, adequacy, state of repair or physical condition of the Property, (ii) the habitability, merchantability or fitness, suitability or adequacy of the Property or any portion thereof for any particular use or purpose, (iii) the zoning or other legal status of the Property, (iv) the compliance by the Property, or any portion thereof, with any applicable codes, laws, regulations, statutes, ordinances, covenants, conditions or restrictions of any governmental or quasi-governmental entity or of any Person, or (v) the environmental condition of the Property, including its compliance with environmental laws and the presence or non-presence of hazardous substances.

ARTICLE 11. DEFAULT, REMEDIES.

Section 11.1 Purchaser’s Default. Should Purchaser default under this Agreement prior to Closing, Marriott shall be entitled (i) to retain the Deposit, and (ii) to collect the sum of $5 million from Purchaser (which shall become due and payable upon such default), collectively as liquidated damages and terminate this Agreement (and the retention of the Deposit and such $5 million shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Marriott for such default) in which event Purchaser shall have no rights under this Agreement or the CTF Agreement, and Marriott shall have the right, but not the obligation, to close under the CTF Agreement. Following Closing, in the event the Deposit is retained by the Title Company pursuant to the provisions of Schedule 9.2(d)), the provisions of subsection (ii) above shall have no further force or effect.

Section 11.2 Marriott’s Default.

(a) If all other parties, including CTF and the other purchaser of Hotels under contract with Marriott to acquire such hotels, shall have fully performed their respective obligations under this Agreement and any other applicable Purchase and Sale Agreement with regard to the Hotels including the CTF Agreement, and Marriott shall default hereunder, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from Marriott as its sole and exclusive remedy (i) a refund of its Deposit and all interest earned thereon, (ii) Purchaser’s Out of Pocket Costs, and (iii) a payment in the amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

(b) If Marriott shall default under this Agreement as a result of a default by the other purchaser of any of the hotels under contract with Marriott pursuant to the CTF Agreement under its applicable Purchase and Sale Agreement, and such default shall not have been caused by a default by CTF under the CTF Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled to receive from Marriott (i) a refund of its Deposit and all interest earned thereon and its reasonable Purchaser’s Out of Pocket Costs not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000).

(c) If Marriott’s default hereunder results from a default by CTF under the CTF Agreement, Marriott shall determine which if any remedy it wishes to pursue against CTF and shall provide to Purchaser notice of such determination. Purchaser shall have a period of ten (10) days after receipt of Marriott’s determination within which to elect to participate in such action or not to so participate. If Purchaser elects to participate with Marriott in any such litigation, Purchaser shall be entitled to its pro rata share of damages in fact awarded to, and received by Marriott, and if such litigation shall include an action for specific performance, Purchaser shall be entitled to acquire, pursuant to this Agreement and any of such order, judgment or decree of the applicable court, the Hotels which are the subject of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 11.2(c), the pro rata share of damages (less all costs incurred by Marriott and Purchaser in pursuing such action shall be determined based on the Unadjusted Purchase Price for the Hotels which are the subject of this Agreement as compared with the Unadjusted Purchase Price under the CTF Agreement, unless any such damages as contemplated in this Section 11.2(c) shall be awarded based on specific damage to a

-67-

particular Hotel, in which event the damages awarded and paid shall belong to the party taking title to such Hotel. If Purchaser elects not to participate in any such action, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other under this Agreement. In any event, all decisions as to the pursuit of remedies and the prosecution of any litigation shall be made solely by Marriott.

(d) If Marriott defaults under this Agreement, and such default shall not have resulted from a default by CTF under the CTF Agreement, and if thereafter Marriott either acquires the Hotels under the CTF Agreement or otherwise transfers its right to acquire the Hotels under the CTF Agreement to a third party, Purchaser shall have the right to specific performance as to this Agreement; provided, however, Purchaser must (i) institute such action for Specific Performance against Marriott within three (3) months from the first date on which Purchaser first learns or discovers that Marriott has so acquired the Hotels under the CTF Agreement or so transferred its rights under the CTF Agreement and (ii) as a closing condition to the Purchaser of such Hotels, repay to Marriott any sums previously paid by Marriott to Purchaser for out-of-pocket expenses as provided in Sections 11.2(a) and 11.2(b) hereof less however Purchaser’s costs in pursuing such action for specific performance against Marriott.
