as of June 1, 1999 (as amended by a certain Modification Agreement dated as of

Company, the Guarantors and the Noteholders have agreed to amend the Note

the provisions hereof;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual premises,

any right or rights which the Noteholders may have in the future under or in
connection with the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement, the Notes or any
Security Document.

 

2.4          Amendment as a Security Document.

 

                This Amendment shall constitute a Security Document as such term
is defined in the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement.

 

3.             REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

 

The Company and each Guarantor (individually, an “Obligor” and, collectively,
the “Obligors”) warrants and represents to each Noteholder that, as of the
Effective Date, the following statements are true, correct and complete:

 

3.1          Organization; Power and Authority.  Each Obligor is duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of its
incorporation, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law,
other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in
good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Obligor has the corporate
power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own
or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to
transact, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder and under the Amended Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement and the
Amended Notes.

 

3.2          Authorization, etc.  This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered and duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the
part of each Obligor, and each of this Agreement, the Amended Note Purchase and
Guarantee Agreement and the Amended Notes constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Obligor enforceable against each Obligor in accordance with
its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (b) general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

3.3          Disclosure.  None of the written statements, documents or other
written materials furnished by, or on behalf of, the Obligors to the Noteholders
in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and
none of the financial statements and other certificates provided to the
Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of the Note Purchase and Guaranty
Agreement contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material
fact necessary to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading
in light of the circumstances in which they were made.  There is no fact which
the Obligors have not disclosed to the Noteholders which materially affects
adversely or, so far as the Obligor can now foresee, will materially affect
adversely the business, prospects, profits, properties or condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the
ability of the Obligors to perform their obligations set forth herein or in the
Amended Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement or the Amended Notes.

 

3.4          Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.  The execution,
delivery and performance by the Obligors of this Agreement will not:

 

(a)           contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default
under, or result in the creation of any lien in respect of any Property of any
of the Obligors under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or
credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other agreement or
instrument to which Obligors are bound or by which the Obligors or any of their
respective properties may be bound or affected, including, without limitation,
Section 8.7 of the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined);

 

(b)           conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court,
arbitrator or Governmental Authority applicable to any of the Obligors; or

 

(c)           violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation
of any Governmental Authority applicable to any of the Obligors.

 

3.5          Governmental Authorizations, etc.  No consent, approval or
authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental
Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance
by the Obligors of this Agreement.

 

3.6          Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders.

 

(a)           There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of the Obligors, threatened against or affecting the assets,
properties of the Obligors, or the Obligors in any court or before any
arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)           None of the Obligors is in default under any term of any agreement
or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order,
judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or
is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including
without limitation Environmental Laws) of any Governmental Authority, which
default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

3.7          No Defaults.  No event has occurred and is continuing and no
condition exists which, upon the effectiveness of the amendments provided for in
this Agreement or the Credit Agreement Amendment (as hereinafter defined), would
constitute a Default or Event of Default.

 

3.8          Credit Agreement. The Obligors have delivered a true and correct
copy of the Credit Agreement Amendment to all Noteholders.  The Credit Agreement
Amendment is in full force and effect and all conditions precedent to its
effectiveness have been satisfied in full or otherwise complied with by the
Obligors.  Other than as expressly set forth in the Credit Agreement Amendment,
there are no other agreements or understandings between any of the Obligors and
any of the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) identified
therein with respect to the Credit Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement
Amendment) or the indebtedness evidenced thereby or the Credit Agreement
Amendment.  In addition, with respect to the Credit Agreement, no defaults or
events of default exist or will exist thereunder immediately after giving effect
to the Credit Agreement Amendment and this Agreement.

 

3.9          Material Assets. Pursuant to the Security Documents, all of the
Obligors’ material Collateral has been assigned or pledged to Citibank, N.A., as
collateral agent for the Noteholders and the Banks, and such assignments and
pledges remain in full force and effect.

 

3.10        Incorporation of Representations and Warranties From Note Purchase
and Guarantee Agreement.  The representations and warranties contained in
Section 5 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement are and will be true,
correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date to
the same extent as though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such
representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which
case they were true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of
such earlier date.

EXHIBIT A-1

AMENDMENTS TO NOTE PURCHASE AND GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

 

1.             Amendment to Section 1.  Authorization of Notes; Guarantee.

 

Section 1(a) of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:

 

“(a)         The Company will authorize the issue and sale of $50,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its 9.06% Guaranteed Senior Secured Notes, due
June 16, 2004, such term to include any such notes issued in substitution
therefor pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement.  The Notes shall bear
interest at the Interest Rate.  Interest shall be payable semiannually on the
sixteenth day of June and December in each year (commencing December 16, 1999)
and at maturity.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, commencing after the
semi-annual interest payment due December 16, 2001, and continuing until the
Covenant Compliance Date (as hereinafter defined), interest shall be payable
quarterly on the sixteenth day of each March, June, September and December in
each year (commencing on March 16, 2002) and at maturity; provided, that, if the
Company shall fail or be unable to make the representation and warranty required
pursuant to Section 7.1(i)(B) or such representation and warranty proves to have
been false or incorrect in any respect, then commencing immediately and
continuing until the Covenant Compliance Date, interest shall be payable monthly
on the sixteenth day of each month and at maturity.  As used herein, the term
“Covenant Compliance Date” shall mean the first date at the end of any fiscal
quarter on which the ratio set forth in Section 10.5 is greater than or equal to
2.0 to 1.0, the ratio set forth in Section 10.6 is less than or equal to 2.5 to
1.0, and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.5 to 1.0 (it
being the intent of the parties hereto that the Company must be in compliance
with each of the foregoing ratios as of the end of the same fiscal quarter in
order for the Covenant Compliance Date to occur).  Upon the occurrence of the
Covenant Compliance Date interest shall again be payable semiannually on the
sixteenth day of June and December in each year (commencing with the next June
16th or December 16th occurring immediately after the Covenant Compliance Date)
and at maturity. The Notes will bear interest on overdue principal (including
any overdue required or optional prepayment of principal) and Make-Whole Amount,
if any, and (to the extent legally enforceable) on any overdue installment of
interest at the Default Rate after the date due, whether by acceleration or
otherwise, until paid.  The Notes will mature on June 16, 2004, and will be
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1, with such changes therefrom, if
any, as may be approved by each Purchaser and the Company.  Certain capitalized
terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a
“Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an
Exhibit attached to this Agreement.”

 

2.             Amendment of Section 7. 1 Financial and Business Information.

 

2.1          Section 7.1 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby
amended by inserting as a new clause (i) thereto the following:

 

“(i)          Monthly Financial Statements.  As soon as available, and in any
event within twenty (20) days after the first day of each calendar month, (i) a
consolidating balance sheet and income statement of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar month,
together with a related consolidating statement of cash flows, in each case
setting forth in comparative form consolidating figures for the corresponding
calendar month of the preceding fiscal year and (ii) a consolidated statement as
of the end of the immediately preceding calendar month setting forth the
occupancy rates in each hotel, resort, place of accommodation or other facility
managed, owned, leased or operated by the Company and its Subsidiaries (it being
understood that the foregoing occupancy rates need not be set forth on an
individual hotel or other facility basis, but may be presented in a consolidated
summary format by region, operating units or other manner reasonably approved by
the Required Holders), setting forth in comparative form consolidated figures
for the corresponding calendar month of the preceding fiscal year, all such
financial information described above to be in reasonable form and detail and
reasonably acceptable to the Required Holders, and accompanied by (A) a
certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company to the effect that
such monthly financial statements fairly present in all material respects the
financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP, subject to changes resulting from audit
and normal year-end audit adjustments, and (B) a certificate of the Company
whereby the Company represents and warrants to the Noteholders that as of the
date of such certificate, based on the Company’s then-current good faith
projections, the Company will have sufficient funds available (whether under the
Company’s revolving credit facility or otherwise) to make the next coming
interest payments due under the Notes, such availability to be not less than
125% of the aggregate amount of such interest payments.”

2.2          Section 7.1 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby
further amended by inserting as a new clause (j) thereto the following:

“(j)          Semi-Monthly Reporting.  Within five (5) Business Days after the
first (1st) and fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar month, (i) a consolidated
statement as of the end of such semi-monthly period of all bookings in each
hotel, resort, place of accommodation or other facility managed, owned, leased
or operated by the Company and its Subsidiaries (it being understood that the
foregoing bookings need not be set forth on an individual hotel or other
facility basis, but may be presented in a consolidated summary format by region,
operating units or other manner reasonably approved by the Required Holders),
setting forth in comparative form consolidated figures for the corresponding
semi-monthly period of the preceding fiscal year and (ii) a consolidated
statement of projected unrestricted cash and revolver balances of the Company
and its Subsidiaries for the twelve (12) week period commencing on the first day
after the end of each such semi-monthly period, all such information described
above to be in reasonable form and detail and reasonably acceptable to the
Required Holders, and accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial
officer of the Company to the effect that such statements are good faith
estimates for the respective periods covered thereby.”

Section 10.5 of the Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting it in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:

If, during the period over which Consolidated Operating Cash Flow is being
calculated, the Company or a Subsidiary has acquired one or more Persons (or the
assets thereof) resulting in such Persons becoming, or otherwise resulting in,
Subsidiaries, compliance with this covenant will be determined by calculating
consolidated Operating Cash Flow on a pro forma basis as if all (but not less
than all) of such Subsidiaries had become Subsidiaries at the beginning of the
four fiscal quarters most recently ended.”

 

5.             Amendment to Section 10.

Default would exist; provided, that, during the period from the Second Amendment
Effective Date until the Covenant Compliance Date, the Company shall not make or
declare, or incur any liability to declare or make, any Restricted Payment
whatsoever , and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, make or declare, or incur
any liability to declare or make, any Restricted Payment whatsoever (except that

officer’s certificate to the Holders for the last day of the most recently ended
fiscal quarter of the Company preceding the applicable Calculation Date, the
Interest Rate from such Calculation Date shall be based upon Pricing Level V
(shown on the table above) until such time as such officer’s certificate is so
delivered, whereupon the Interest Rate shall be determined by the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of
the Company preceding such Calculation Date.  Each Interest Rate shall be
