<PAGE>

     2. Default Rate. After the Maturity Date or upon and after any default (not
        ------------
cured within the applicable cure period, if any) hereunder or under the
Mortgage, whichever shall first occur, this Note shall bear interest at a rate
which is equal to the maximum allowable rate permitted by law from the date of
such default or Maturity until paid in full.

     3. Prepayment. The Maker shall have the privilege of prepaying this Note in
        ----------
part or in full, without premium or penalty, at any time or times.

     4. Application of Payment. All payments made on the indebtedness evidenced
        ----------------------
by this Note shall be applied first, to the payment or reimbursement of any and
all costs, expenses or other amounts which may have been paid or incurred by the
Payee under the Mortgage or this Note, then to payment of accrued interest, and
last to payment of principal.

     5. Place and Manner of Payment. All payments of interest and principal are
        ---------------------------
payable at the office of Payee, or at such other place as the holder may
designate in writing, in immediately available funds, in lawful money of the
United States of America.

     6. Event of Default. Maker shall be in default under this Note upon Maker's
        ----------------
failure to make any scheduled payment of principal or interest due hereunder or
under the Mortgage within ten (10) days following the due date thereof without
notice or demand. With respect to any other sums due hereunder or under the
Mortgage, Maker shall be in default under this Note upon Maker's failure to make
any such payment within any applicable curative period provided hereunder or
under the Mortgage (or if no such curative period is expressly provided, within
ten (10) days after written notice thereof). Maker shall also be in default
under this Note upon the occurrence of any other uncured Event of Default under
the Mortgage (the foregoing, collectively, an "Event of Default").

     7. Remedies after Default. At the option of Payee, all or any part of the
        ----------------------
principal and accured interest on the Note, and all other obligations of the
Maker to the Payee shall become immediately due and payable in full without
additional notice or demand, upon the occurrence of an uncured Event of Default
or at any time thereafter. Payee may exercise all rights and remedies provided
by law, equity, in this Note, in the Mortgage, or any other Loan Document or any
other obligation of the Maker to the Payee. All rights and remedies as set forth
in the Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singly,
successively or together, at the sole discretion of Payee, and may be exercised
as often as occasion therefore shall arise. Such remedies are not exclusive, and
Payee is entitled to all remedies provided at law or equity, whether or not
expressly set forth herein. No act, or omission or commission or waiver of
Payee, including specifically any failure to exercise any right, remedy or
recourse, shall be effective unless set forth in a written document executed by
Payee and then only to the extent specifically recited therein. A waiver or
release with reference to one event shall not be construed as continuing, as a
bar to, or as a waiver or release of, any subsequent right, remedy or recourse
as to any subsequent event.

     8. Collection Expenses. All parties liable for the payment of the Note
        -------------------
agree to pay the Payee all costs and expenses incurred by the Payee, whether or
not an action be brought, in collecting the sums due under the Note, enforcing
the performance and/or protecting its rights

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

under the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents and in realizing on any of the
security for the Note. Such costs and expenses shall include, but are not
limited to, filing fees, costs of publication, deposition fees, stenographer
fees, witness fees and other court and related costs.

     9.  Attorneys' Fees. All parties liable for the payment of the Note agree
         ---------------
to pay the Payee reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the Payee, whether or
not an action be brought, in collecting the sums due under the Note, enforcing
the performance and/or protecting its rights under the Mortgage or the other
Loan Documents and in realizing on any of the security for the Note. Such
reasonable attorneys' fees shall include, but not be limited to, fees for
attorneys, paralegals, legal assistants, and expenses incurred in mediation, any
and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, receivership, or
other proceedings affecting creditor's rights and involving a claim under the
Note, the Mortgage, or any Loan Document, which such proceedings may arise
before or after entry of a final judgment. Such fees shall be paid regardless
whether suit is brought and shall include all fees incurred by Payee before,
during or after trial and upon any appellate levels and including bankruptcy
court.

     10. Waiver and Consent. By the making or guaranty, if any, of this Note,
         ------------------
and each guarantor, if any, waive protest, presentment for payment, notice of
dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration.

     11. Usury Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision of this Note and/or the
         ----------------
Mortgage, or any other Loan Documents, or any other instrument securing payment
of this Note to the contrary, it is the intent of the undersigned Maker and
Payee that the Payee shall never be entitled to receive, collect or apply as
interest on principal of the indebtedness any amount in excess of the maximum
rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law; and in the event
Payee ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such
amount which should be excessive interest shall be deemed a partial prepayment
of principal and treated hereunder as such; and, if the principal of the
indebtedness secured hereby is paid in full, any remaining excess funds shall
forthwith be paid to Maker. In determining whether or not the interest paid or
payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, Maker
and Payee shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a)
characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than
as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c)
amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of
interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the indebtedness so that the
interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of the indebtedness;
provided that if the indebtedness is paid and performed in full prior to the end
of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the
actual period of existence thereof exceeds the maximum lawful rate, Payee shall
refund to Maker the amount of such excess or credit the amount of such excess
against the principal portion of the indebtedness, and in such event, Payee
shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for,
charging, or receiving interest in excess of the maximum lawful rate. In no
contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to
Payee for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness collateralized
hereby exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any
circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or any provision
of any instrument securing the primary obligation at the time performance of

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

such provision shall be due shall involve transcending the limit of validity
prescribed by applicable law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled
                                    ----------
shall be reduced to the limit of such validity. This provision shall control
every other provision of this Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.

     12. Mortgage and other Loan Documents. This Note is secured by a Purchase
         ---------------------------------
Money Mortgage and Security Agreement of even date herewith (the "Mortgage")
upon real and personal property located in Orange County, Florida. Any Event of
Default occurring under the Mortgage or any other document, instrument or
agreement evidencing or securing the loan (collectively the "Loan Documents")
shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

     13. Choice of Law and Venue. This Note shall be governed by the Laws of the
         -----------------------
State of Florida, and the United States of America, whichever the context may
require or permit. The Maker and all guarantor, if any, to this obligation
expressly agree that proper venue permitted by law shall be Orange County,
Florida. Should Payee institute any action under this Note, the Maker and all
guarantors, if any, hereby submit themselves to the jurisdiction of any court
sitting in Florida.

     14. Severability. If any provision of this Note shall be held unenforceable
         ------------
or void, then such provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining
provisions and shall in no way affect the enforceability of the remaining
provisions nor the validity of this Note.

     15. Maker and Payee Defined. The term "Maker" includes each and every
         -----------------------
person or entity signing this Note and any co-signers, guarantors, their
successors and assigns. The term "Payee" shall include the Payee and any
transferee and assignee of Payee or other holder of this Note.

     16. Captions and Pronouns. The captions and headings of the various
         ---------------------
sections of this Note are for convenience only, and are not to be construed as
confining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.
Wherever the context requires or permits, the singular shall include the plural,
the plural shall include the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter
shall be freely interchangeable.

     17. Receipt of Copy. By signing this Note, Maker acknowledges that it was
         ---------------
read by Maker prior to execution and a copy was received by Maker.

     18. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to each
         -------------------
provision in this Note where a time or date for performance is stated. All time
periods or dates for performance stated in this Note are material provisions of
this Note.

     19. Waiver of Trial By Jury. The Maker and the Payee knowingly, voluntarily
         -----------------------
and intentionally waive the right either may have to a trial by jury in respect
of any litigation based hereon, or arising out of, under or in connection with
this Note or any agreement contemplated to be executed in conjunction herewith,
or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or
written) or actions of either party. This provision is a material inducement for
the Payee to make the loan to Maker evidenced by this Note.

         (a) Except as set forth in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Section
20, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Payee, by its
acceptance of this Note, expressly agrees that the liability of Maker shall be
strictly and absolutely limited to the property encumbered by the Mortgage
(including, but not limited to, the leases, rents, profits and issues thereof)
and any other collateral now or hereafter securing the indebtedness evidenced
hereby or as provided by the Mortgage, except as provided below. If an Event of
Default shall occur, the Mortgagee shall not and may not seek any judgment for a
deficiency or for the payment of the principal amount of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, in any action to foreclose, to exercise a power of sale, to
confirm any foreclosure or sale under power of sale, or to exercise any other
rights of power under or by reason of the Mortgage evidencing or securing the
obligations of the Maker with respect to the indebtedness evidenced hereby or as
provided by the Mortgage except to the extent required in order to proceed with
judicial proceedings to foreclose the Mortgage. In the event any suit is brought
on this Note, or concerning any amount secured by the Mortgage as part of
judicial proceedings to foreclose the Mortgage and/or any other security
interest granted to the Payee, or to confirm any foreclosure or sale pursuant to
power of sale thereunder, except as provided in subparagraphs (b) and (c)
hereinbelow, any judgment obtained in such suit shall constitute a lien on and
will be and can be enforced only against, the property encumbered by the
Mortgage, and the leases, rents, profits and issues thereof, and not against
Maker personally or against any other asset of the Maker, and the terms of such
judgment shall expressly so provide.

         (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in subparagraph (a)
of this Section 20, the Maker shall be personally liable for, and the Payee
shall have the right to seek a judgment for money damages (including a
deficiency judgment) to enforce or collect any or all of the following:

             (i)   Interest accrued under the terms of this Note or the
     Mortgage, or both;

             (ii)  Any taxes or other items specified in Section 2 of the
     Mortgage which are not paid by Borrower as and when required pursuant to
     said Section 2;

             (iii) An amount equal to a prorata share of all unpaid taxes and
     other matters specified in Section 2 of the Mortgage for the year in which
     a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof occurs for the period from January 1
     of such year to and including the date of an issuance of a certificate of
     sale or recordation of a deed in lieu of foreclosure;

             (iv)  Any losses resulting from the failure of the Borrower to keep
     the Mortgaged Property insured as required pursuant to Section 8 of the
     Mortgage, including, without limitation, the amount of any unpaid premiums
     for insurance which Borrower was required to maintain pursuant to the
     provisions of said Section 8 of the Mortgage;

             (v)   Any and all costs and expenses, including reasonable
     attorneys' and paralegals' fees and disbursements (whether incurred before,
     during or after trial or upon any appellate level, or in any proceeding in
     bankruptcy or insolvency) incurred by

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

     Payee in the enforcement of the Maker's obligations hereunder or under the
     Mortgage, in the foreclosure of the Mortgage, or in the collection and
     enforcement of any judgment obtained against the Maker, provided, however,
     in the event that Borrower tenders to Lender a properly executed Special
     Warranty Deed reconveying the Mortgaged Property to Lender in lieu of
     foreclosure, together with a fully executed owner's affidavit, Form DR-219,
     non-foreign certification, and a "marked-up" title commitment insuring
     title to the Mortgaged Property in Lender without exception for any matter
     other than those matters to which the Mortgaged Property was subject upon
     conveyance by Lender to Borrower, and Borrower has paid or tenders payment
     for the documentary stamp tax and cost of recording the deed and the title
     insurance premium for the title policy to be issued to Lender pursuant to
     the aforesaid title commitment, Borrower shall not be liable for any costs
     of foreclosure after the date after such tender;

           (vi)   Indemnification provisions in favor of the Payee set forth in
     the Mortgage (but excluding any indemnity provisions which would result in
     the payment of principal under the indebtedness evidenced hereby);

           (vii)  The leases, rents, profits and issues of the property
     encumbered by the Mortgage following any default under this Note or the
     Mortgage (without regard to the expiration of any cure period, if any) to
     the extent not applied toward costs and expenses of operating and
     maintaining the subject Property or being paid under or pursuant to the
     terms of this Note or the Mortgage;

           (viii) Liability for intentional waste, destruction or damage to
     the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof;

           (ix)   Liability and indemnification under Section 17 of the
     Mortgage, including, but not limited to, liability and indemnification
     obligations for removal or cleanup of Hazardous Substances;

           (x)    All condemnation awards and payments in lieu thereof and/or
     insurance proceeds received by Maker which are not applied to the
     reasonable costs of the restoration of the property or to the obligations
     of Maker under this Note or the Mortgage;

           (xi)   The cost to restore the property as a result of a casualty if
     the net available insurance proceeds, if any, are allowed to be applied to
     restoration, to the extent that the costs of such restoration is not
     reimbursed by insurance; and

           (xii)  Any liability, damage, cost or expense incurred by Payee as a
     result of any fraud, material misrepresentation or bad faith by Mortgagor.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder or under the Mortgage,
Maker expressly agrees that the Payee shall have the right to obtain a judgment
against Maker for the amounts or matters set forth in subparagraphs (i) through
(ix), inclusive, of this Section 20(b) proven or stipulated to be due and owing
for which Maker shall be personally liable

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20(a) above. Further, in the event of
a foreclosure of the Mortgage, Maker hereby further agrees that the Payee shall
be entitled to obtain a deficiency judgment against Maker for the amounts or
matters set forth in said subparagraphs (i) through (ix), inclusive of this
Section 20(b), regardless of the fair market value of the property foreclosed,
unless and to the extent the successful bid at the foreclosure sale is made and
paid by a third party unrelated to the Payee and is in an amount in excess of
the full amount of the Maker's judgment in foreclosure, together with interest
thereon. Maker hereby unrevocably and absolutely waives and relinquishes its
right to contest such deficiency judgment except as set forth hereinabove.

     (c) If, and at such time as the Maker actually pays to the Payee the first
principal installment to be made hereunder, subparagraphs (a) and (b) above of
this Section 20 shall thereupon automatically terminate and as of the date of
such first payment of principal hereunder such subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this
Section 20 shall be null, void and of no further force and effect whatsoever.
From and after said first payment of principal hereunder, the Maker shall be
fully personally liable  hereunder and under the Mortgage as if this Section 20
had never existed.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Maker has executed and delivered this instrument the
day and year first above written.

                          PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT
                          ---------------------------

     THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into as of this 1st day of August,
                                                        ---
2001, by and between THE VILLAS AT MONTEREY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Florida
limited partnership and TANGO BAY OF ORLANDO, LC, a Florida limited liability
company (collectively, "Seller"), and MEGO FINANCIAL CORP., a New York
corporation (the "Purchaser").  In consideration of the mutual covenants and
promises herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:

     1.   Purchase and Sale.  Seller agrees to sell to Purchaser and Purchaser
          -----------------
agrees to purchase from Seller those certain parcels of real property (the
"Land") located in Orange County, Florida, as more particularly described on
Exhibit "A" attached hereto, together with the following property and rights:

     (a)  All improvements located on the Land, including buildings, structures
          and other facilities (the "Improvements").  The Land and the
          Improvements are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Realty;"

     (b)  All fixtures, equipment, furniture and items of personal property used
          exclusively in the operation of the Realty, and situated on the Realty
          (the "Personalty");

     (c)  All licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals pertaining to
          ownership and/or operation of the Realty which are separable and
          transferable;

     (d)  All strips and gores of land lying adjacent to the Realty (but which
          are not otherwise part of the Project), together with all easements,
          privileges, rights-of-way, riparian and other water rights, lands
          underlying any adjacent streets or roads, and appurtenances pertaining
          to or accruing to the benefit of the Realty that are owned by Seller,
          if any; and

     (e)  All of Seller's interest in and to the Assumed Contracts (hereinafter
          defined).

The Realty and all of the other property and rights described in this Section 1
are hereinafter collectively called the "Property".

     The Land is a portion of the overall Ramada Inn All Suites at International
Drive South project (the "Project"), which Project consists of, among other
things, a Reception Building and separate buildings lettered A (a/k/a 1) through
S (a/k/a 19), inclusive (the Land and buildings to be conveyed hereunder are all
of the remaining Land and buildings at the Project owned by Seller).  Seller
understands and agrees that, after Closing (as hereinafter defined in Section
15), Purchaser intends to operate the Property under the name "Ramada Vacation
Suites at Orlando", or such other name as Purchaser may determine.   Because
this transaction represents the conveyance by Seller of all of its remaining
interests in the Project, Seller agrees that, to the extent that Seller has any
interest in the name "Ramada Inn All Suites at International Drive South",
"Ramada at Tango Bay," "Ramada" and/or "Ramada Suites", and/or any other
variation thereof relating to the Project, or any logos, trademarks and/or other
rights in connection therewith, Seller shall transfer all of said interests to
Purchaser at Closing, without representation or warranty by Seller, and said
interests shall be deemed part of the Property for purposes of this Agreement.

     2. Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller for
        --------------
the Property is Five Million Nine Hundred Eighty-Five Thousand and No/100
($5,985,000.00) Dollars (the "Purchase Price").

     3. Deposit. To secure the performance by Purchaser of its obligations under
        -------
this Agreement, within two (2) business days following receipt of written notice
of execution of this Agreement by Seller, Purchaser shall deliver to Broad and
Cassel, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"), the sum of Ten Thousand and No/100
($10,000.00) Dollars (the "Deposit"). The Escrow Agent shall invest the Deposit
in an interest-bearing account, certificate of deposit or repurchase agreement
maintained with or issued by a commercial bank or savings and loan

                                      -9-

association doing business in Orange County, Florida. All interest accrued or
earned on the Deposit shall be paid or credited to Purchaser except in the event
of a default by Purchaser, without any default of Seller, in which event the
interest shall be disbursed to Seller, together with the Deposit, as liquidated
damages in accordance with Section 11 below.

     4. Terms of Payment. The Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller by
        ----------------
Purchaser's execution and delivery of a purchase money note and mortgage in
favor of Seller in the full amount of the Purchase Price, as more particularly
provided in Section 5 of this Agreement. The Deposit, together with the interest
accrued thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser at Closing.

     5. Purchase Money Note and Mortgage. At Closing, Purchaser shall execute in
        --------------------------------
favor of Seller a Purchase Money Note (the "Purchase Money Note") in the
principal amount of $5,985,000, bearing interest on the unpaid principal balance
at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum simple interest, and payable on a
quarterly basis commencing on the last day of the first calendar quarter
following Closing. The Purchase Money Note shall be in the form attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit "B", and the principal thereof shall be paid as provided
therein. The Purchase Money Note shall be secured by a Purchase Money Mortgage
(the "Purchase Money Mortgage") encumbering the Property. Upon (i) each payment
by Purchaser of the principal of the Purchase Money Note in the amount of the
Release Price set forth below and any then accrued but unpaid interest, and (ii)
compliance with and subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in the
Purchase Money Mortgage pertaining to the granting of partial releases, Seller
shall release from the lien and effect of the Purchase Money Mortgage each
Building, together with the portion of the Land relating thereto (each such
Building and Land relating thereto are hereinafter referred to as a "Release
Parcel"), identified across from such Release Price in the below table:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seller and Purchaser agree to use the legal description for each Release Parcel
established by the surveyor under Section 6 hereof as the legal description
attached to the partial release for such Release Parcel under Section 29 of the
Purchase Money Mortgage, and further agree that said legal description shall
meet and satisfy the conditions of Section 29(a) of the Purchase Money Mortgage.
In the event that Seller and Purchaser are unable to confirm by the Closing date
that the individual legal description for each Release Parcel is adequate to
insure that, upon the release of such Release Parcel under the Purchase Money
Mortgage, such Release Parcel and the unreleased portion of the Property will
have access to a publicly dedicated road and all necessary utilities, and will
not be in violation of any applicable governmental requirement as a result of
the splitting of the Property, the parties shall nevertheless proceed to Closing
(subject to the other terms of this Agreement); however, Seller and Purchaser
shall cooperate and work in good faith with the surveyor to achieve legal
descriptions which meet the foregoing standard within thirty (30) days following
Closing.  This provision shall survive Closing.   The Purchase Money Mortgage
shall be drawn in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "C".

     6.   Title.  Within five (5) days following the date of this Agreement,
          -----
Seller, at Seller's expense, shall deliver to Purchaser's attorneys, Greenberg
Traurig, P.A., 1221 Brickell Avenue, Miami, Florida 33131, Attention: Nancy B.
Lash, Esq., a commitment (the "Commitment") for an owner's ALTA Form B
Marketability title insurance policy with respect

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

to the Project from First American Title Insurance Corporation (or other
national title company reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) in favor of Purchaser
in the amount of the Purchase Price. The Commitment shall be endorsed and
updated at Seller's expense: (i) within five (5) days following the delivery of
the Survey (as hereinafter defined) to delete those matters reflected on the
Commitment which are not applicable to the Realty, and (ii) within five (5) days
before Closing. The Commitment and any endorsement or update thereof shall show
Seller to be vested with good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the
Realty, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and other matters, except only
for those liens and encumbrances to be released and satisfied at Closing and the
following (the "Permitted Exceptions"):

     (a)  Ad valorem real estate taxes for the year of Closing, provided same
          are not then due and payable, and subsequent years.

     (b)  All applicable zoning ordinances and regulations, none of which shall
          prohibit or otherwise interfere with all uses presently being made of
          the Property.

     (c)  The Assumed Contracts (as hereinafter defined).

     (d)  The matters described on Exhibit "D" attached hereto.

     Additionally, at Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall execute such documents
as are necessary to: (i) amend that certain Declaration of Restrictions and
Protective Covenants for Tango Bay (as heretofore amended, the "Declaration"),
recorded April 9, 1996 in Official Records Book 5038, Page 3760 of the Public
Records of Orange County, Florida, to allow for the transfer of each Release
Parcel from Village A to Village B (as defined in the Declaration) at the time
such Release Parcel is released from the Purchase Money Mortgage (the
"Declaration Amendment"), (ii) terminate that certain Declaration of
Restrictions (6 Year Covenant) recorded April 9, 1996 in Official Records Book
5038, Page 3850 of the Public Records of Orange County, Florida, and (iii)
terminate that certain Declaration of Restrictions (30 Month Covenant)

                                      -12-
<PAGE>

recorded April 9, 1996 in Official Records Book 5038, Page 3844 of the Public
Records of Orange County, Florida.

     No later than August 10, 2001, Seller shall also deliver to Purchaser, a
survey (the "Survey") of the Realty showing and certifying the exact location
and legal description of the Realty and meeting the minimum technical standards
of the Florida Board of Land Surveyors and the State of Florida Department of
Professional Regulation, certified to Purchaser, Purchaser's title insurer,
Seller and Broad and Cassel and prepared as of a date subsequent to the date of
this Agreement.  The Survey shall also show and certify: (i) the location of all
improvements and easements and rights-of-way affecting the Realty, (ii) the
location of all roadways adjacent to the Realty, (iii) the acreage of the Realty
calculated to the second decimal place, (iv) the perimeter boundaries of the
Project, including, without limitation, the location of all streets, roads,
accessways, entrance features and fountains located therein, and (v) separate
legal descriptions for each Release Parcel, together with the information set
forth in clauses (i) through (iv) for such Release Parcel.  The legal
description and perimeter boundaries for each Release Parcel shall be drawn in
such a manner so that the Release Parcel in question and the remaining portion
of the Realty not yet released from the Purchase Money Mortgage each have
ingress and egress to a publicly dedicated road or a private access easement,
and comply with applicable parking, setback and other governmental requirements.
Notwithstanding the fact that Seller shall be obligated to obtain and deliver
the Survey to Purchaser, responsibility for the cost of the Survey shall be
determined as follows: (1) in the event that Purchaser closes on title to the
Property as contemplated hereunder, Purchaser shall be solely obligated for the
cost of the Survey; (2) in the event that Purchaser elects to cancel this
Agreement during the Inspection Period as provided in Section 8 below, Purchaser
shall be solely obligated for the cost of the

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

Survey; (3) in the event that the Agreement is cancelled as a result of the
failure of any of Purchaser's Conditions Precedents (other than breach of a
representation or warranty by Seller), then Purchaser and Seller shall equally
share the cost of the Survey; (4) in the event that the Agreement is cancelled
as a result of a default by Seller or any breach of a representation or warranty
by Seller, then Seller shall be solely obligated for the cost of the Survey; or
(5) in the event that the Agreement is cancelled as a result of a default by
Purchaser, then Purchaser shall be solely obligated for the cost of the Survey.
The provisions of this Section shall survive Closing and any cancellation or
termination of this Agreement.

     Title shall be deemed good, marketable and insurable only if the Commitment
allows for issuance of an Owner's ALTA Form B Marketability Policy effective as
                                            -
of Closing at minimum promulgated risk rate premiums, without any guarantees and
without any exceptions, standard or otherwise, other than the Permitted
Exceptions.  Purchaser shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of the
Commitment and hard copies of all items noted as exceptions therein (the "Title
Review Period"), within which to examine same.  If Purchaser finds title to be
defective or cannot determine the effect of the matter until located on the
Survey, Purchaser shall, no later than the expiration of the Title Review
Period, notify Seller in writing specifying the defect(s) (which defect(s) shall
also include any UCC-1 Financing Statements filed with the Florida Secretary of
State) or reserving the right to comment on same after receipt of the Survey;
provided that if Purchaser fails to give Seller written notice before the
expiration of the Title Review Period of defect(s) in title or of the need for
the Survey to review the effect of the exception, then the defects shown in the
Commitment (other than those to be evaluated upon receipt of the Survey) shall
be deemed to be waived as title objections to closing this transaction.
Purchaser may raise as additional objections, however, any matters first shown
by the Survey,

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

any endorsement of the Commitment and/or recertifications of Survey, provided
that notice of objection to same must be given to Seller within fifteen (15)
days from receipt of the Survey, endorsement or recertification, as applicable,
but in no event later than the Closing date. If Purchaser has given Seller
timely written notice of defect(s) and the defect(s) render the title other than
as represented in this Agreement, Seller shall use its best efforts to cause
such defects to be cured by the date of Closing, provided, however, that Seller
shall not be obligated to file suit or otherwise expend any monies with regard
to curing title defects other than with regard to the payment of any liens or
encumbrances which have voluntarily and intentionally been created by Seller. At
Purchaser's option, the date of Closing may be extended for a reasonable period
(not to exceed ninety (90) days) for purposes of eliminating any title defects.
In the event that Seller does not eliminate any defects as of the date of
Closing as the same may be extended under the preceding sentence, Purchaser
shall have the option of either: (i) Closing and accepting the title "as is",
without reduction in the Purchase Price, or (ii) canceling this Agreement, in
which event the Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit and all interest earned
thereon to Purchaser, whereupon both parties shall be released from all further
obligations under this Agreement, except only for those obligations which are
intended to survive Closing and/or any earlier termination of this Agreement,
unless such defects were caused by Seller's willful act or willful omission, in
which event, Seller shall remain liable to Purchaser for damages caused thereby.
Seller shall execute appropriate documents as required for "gap coverage" by the
title insurer and the Closing shall be held in escrow in accordance with
customary escrow closings for Orange County, Florida.

     7.   Deliveries.  Within seven (7) business days following the date hereof
          ----------
(and thereafter, as applicable), Seller shall deliver to Purchaser true, correct
and complete copies of all of the following, to the extent in the possession of
the Seller:

     (a)  All permits, licenses, authorizations or approvals (other than those
          which are no longer in effect) issued by any governmental body or
          agency having jurisdiction over the Property, related to the ownership
          and/or operation of the Property (the "Licenses");

     (b)  A true, correct and complete copy of the franchise agreement (the
          "Franchise Agreement") between Seller and Ramada with respect to the
          operation of the Project (or the remaining portions thereof);

     (c)  The bill or bills issued for the year 2000 for real estate and
          personal property taxes and any subsequently issued notices pertaining
          to real estate or personal property taxes or assessments applicable to
          the Property; and

     (d)  All engineering and architectural plans and as built plans,
          specifications, drawings and surveys relating to the Property (the
          "Plans"), and all engineering and environmental studies or audits
          relating to the Property ("Studies"), which are within the control or
          possession of Seller, if any.

     8.   Purchaser's Conditions Precedent.  Purchaser's obligation to close the
          --------------------------------
transaction provided for in this Agreement shall be subject to the following
conditions precedent to Closing:

     (a)  Purchaser shall have until August 15, 2001 (the "Inspection Period")
          to examine the Licenses, the Plans and the Studies and to decide
          whether they are satisfactory to Purchaser and to make such physical,
          zoning, land use, environmental, and other examinations, inspections
          and investigations of the Property or the use or operation thereof
          which Purchaser, in Purchaser's sole discretion, may determine to
          make, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 18 below.  In the
          event Purchaser is not satisfied with any of the foregoing, in
          Purchaser's sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser may cancel this
          transaction on or before August 15, 2001 as hereinafter provided.

     (b)  Purchaser shall also have until August 15, 2001 to obtain all
          appropriate final, non-appealable land use, zoning, environmental, and
          other governmental and utility approvals (collectively, the
          "Approvals"), whether by ordinance, variance, amendment, special use
          and/or otherwise, including, without limitation, any necessary
          amendments to the P.U.D. and the applicable

                                      -16-
<PAGE>

          comprehensive plan necessary to permit the operation and marketing of
          the Property as a timeshare, interval ownership or vacation club and a
          building permit for any and all improvements and/or renovations
          intended to be undertaken by Purchaser with respect to the Property.
          Purchaser agrees that it shall not seek to rezone the Property or
          change the land use designations or approvals in a manner which would
          prohibit the Property from being used and operated as currently used
          and operated by Seller; however, the foregoing is not intended to
          restrict Purchaser's ability to convert the Property to timeshare or
          interval ownership, but merely to provide that the Purchaser's
          Approvals shall not prohibit the current uses being made of the
          Property. The immediately preceding sentence shall apply to each
          Building comprising the Property until such Building is released from
          the Purchase Money Mortgage. Purchaser agrees to proceed diligently to
          obtain the Approvals, at Purchaser's expense, and Seller agrees to
          reasonably cooperate in that regard, including, without limitation,
          executing applications or other governmental submissions as the owner
          of the Property and/or obtaining and pulling any permits in Seller's
          name if required by the applicable governmental authorities, provided,
          however, that said cooperation shall not require Seller to post any
          bonds and/or other financial assurances with any governmental
          authorities or incur any liability, cost or expense with regard to
          such cooperation. In the event that Purchaser has not timely obtained
          the Approvals, Purchaser may cancel this transaction as hereinafter
          provided. In order for Seller to keep abreast of the status of the
          application for the Approvals, Purchaser hereby authorizes Seller to
          make direct inquiries of Purchaser's local counsel from time to time,
          and Purchaser shall authorize Purchaser's local counsel to communicate
          directly with Seller and/or Seller's counsel in this regard.

     (c)  At all times during the term of this Agreement and as of Closing, all
          of the representations and warranties by Seller contained in this
          Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects.

     (d)  Ramada shall have consented to the assignment of the Seller's interest
          in and to the Franchise Agreement to Purchaser, without imposing
          payment of any transfer, assignment or termination fees, charges,
          premiums or penalties.

     In the event any of the foregoing conditions precedent are not fulfilled as
of Closing (or earlier date if specified otherwise), then Purchaser shall have
the option of either: (i) waiving the condition and Closing "as is", without
reduction in the Purchase Price or claim against Seller therefor, or (ii)
canceling this Agreement by written notice to Seller given by Closing (or
earlier date if specified otherwise), in which event the Escrow Agent shall
return the Deposit and all

                                      -17-
<PAGE>

interest thereon to Purchaser, whereupon both parties shall be released from all
further obligations under this Agreement, except those obligations which are
specifically stated to survive termination or Closing.

     In the event Purchaser timely elects to cancel this Agreement, and as
consideration for Seller granting Purchaser the investigation and inspection
condition precedent therein, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller within ten (10)
days following any notice of cancellation, a copy of all written studies or
reports obtained by or prepared for Purchaser by third parties in connection
with the Inspection Period, without warranty or representation of any kind
whatsoever on the part of Purchaser as to the content, accuracy or completeness
thereof, and, in addition, Purchaser shall return any materials delivered to
Purchaser by Seller under Section 7 above.

     In the event that the condition set forth in Section 8(d) is not fulfilled
as of Closing (or earlier date if specified otherwise), then Seller shall have
the right to cancel this Agreement by written notice to Purchaser given by
Closing (or earlier date if specified otherwise), in which event the Escrow
Agent shall return the Deposit and all interest thereon to Purchaser, whereupon
both parties shall be released from all further obligations under this
Agreement, except those obligations which are specifically stated to survive
termination or Closing.

     9.   Seller's Representations.  Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser
          ------------------------
and agrees with Purchaser as follows:

     (a)  There are no service contracts, license agreements, management
          agreements or other contracts or agreements affecting the Property,
          other than those identified on Exhibit "E" hereto (collectively, the
          "Contracts"). Seller has delivered to Purchaser true, correct and
          complete copies of the Contracts. At Closing, there shall be no
          contracts, insurance policies, leases, tenancies, arrangements,
          licenses, concessions, easements, service arrangements, employment
          contracts or agreements, brokerage agreements, and any and all other
          contracts or agreements, either recorded or unrecorded, written or
          oral, affecting the Property or any portion thereof, or the use
          thereof, other than the Permitted Exceptions, the

                                      -18-
<PAGE>

          Assumed Contracts, and the 30-Day Cancellation Contracts. With respect
          to the Contracts, Seller agrees as follows:

          (i)    Seller shall, at Seller's sole cost and expense (including
                 without limitation the payment of any termination fees
                 associated therewith), terminate the Contracts with Pagenet,
                 Nextel, Job Finders and Copytronics, each of which is
                 designated as a "Terminated Contract" in Exhibit "E", with such
                 termination to be effective at or prior to Closing. Purchaser
                 shall have no liability or responsibility whatsoever with
                 regard to the Terminated Contracts.

          (ii)   On the Closing date, Seller shall, at Seller's sole cost and
                 expense (including without limitation the payment of any
                 termination fees associated therewith), terminate the Contracts
                 with Dunbar Armored, Inc., The Steritech Group, Inc., Crystal
                 Springs and Poolworks, each of which is designated as a "30-Day
                 Cancellation Contract" in Exhibit "E", with such termination to
                 be effective on the thirtieth (30/th/) day following Closing.
                 Purchaser shall be responsible for only the regular scheduled
                 payments due under the 30-Day Cancellation Contracts for the
                 30-day period following Closing only. Seller shall be
                 responsible for all other costs associated with the 30-Day
                 Cancellation Contracts.

          (iii)  At Closing, Seller shall assign and Purchaser shall assume all
                 of Seller's interest in and to the Contracts listed in Exhibit
                 "E" as the "Assumed Contracts" (collectively, the "Assumed
                 Contracts"), provided that, with respect to the Ramada
                 Franchise Agreement, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have
                 elected to terminate this Agreement under Section 8(d) above.

     (b)  Seller shall not permit any lease rights to extend beyond Closing and
          shall deliver exclusive possession of the Property to Purchaser at
          Closing, free of all tenancies, occupancy or possessory agreements or
          contracts (other than the Permitted Exceptions, including, without
          limitation, the Contracts) or arrangements, whether oral or written,
          including, without limitation, any transient hotel guests affecting
          the Property or any unfulfilled hotel or guest reservations affecting
          the Property, provided, however, that Purchaser agrees to honor any
          unfulfilled hotel or guest reservations affecting the Property which
          are made prior to the date of Closing at room rates consistent with
          Seller's current rates and where the reservation shall be entirely
          fulfilled by no later than October 15, 2003 (the "Permitted
          Outstanding Reservations").  With respect to any Permitted Outstanding
          Reservations, Purchaser shall be responsible for providing services to
          such guest and the costs of administering the reservation.  Purchaser
          shall retain any revenue generated from the guests staying pursuant to
          Permitted Outstanding Reservations.  Seller agrees to indemnify,
          defend and hold harmless the Purchaser (and its officers, directors,
          trustees, employees, agents, successors and assigns) from and against
          all liabilities, damages, claims, costs, fees and expenses whatsoever
          (including

                                      -19-
<PAGE>

          reasonable attorney's fees and court costs at trial and all appellate
          levels) arising out of or resulting from Seller's accepting guest
          reservations either (i) at room rates which are inconsistent with
          Seller's current rates, or (ii) which extend beyond or are not
          fulfilled on or prior to October 15, 2003, including without
          limitation those arising out of Purchaser's refusal to honor such
          unpermitted guest reservations.

          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the provisions contained in
          Sections 9(a) and 9(b) shall survive indefinitely after Closing.

     (c)  Except as otherwise disclosed herein to Purchaser, Seller has not
          received any notice of: (i) any pending improvement liens to be made
          by any governmental authority with respect to the Property; (ii) any
          violations of building codes and/or zoning ordinances or other
          governmental regulations with respect to the Property; (iii) any
          pending or threatened lawsuits with respect to the Property; (iv) any
          pending or threatened condemnation proceedings with respect to the
          Property; or (v) any defects or inadequacies in the Property which
          would adversely affect the insurability of the Property or increase
          the cost thereof.  Seller has advised Purchaser of a "slip and fall"
          lawsuit pending against Seller in the Circuit Court for the Ninth
          Judicial Circuit in Orange County, Florida, Case No. B15OL 99-763909-
          001, filed by Virginia Geiser and Terry Geiser.  Seller is solely
          liable with regard to said lawsuit and agrees to indemnify, defend and
          hold harmless the Purchaser (and its officers, directors, trustees,

          liabilities, damages, claims, costs, fees and expenses whatsoever
          (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs at trial and all
          appellate levels) arising out of or resulting from the foregoing
          lawsuit.  The provisions contained in this Section shall survive
          indefinitely after Closing.

     (d)  To the best of the actual knowledge of Seller, no fact or condition

          electric, gas, telephone or other utilities or services to the
          Property.

     (e)  Seller has not received written notice from any applicable
          governmental entity or any insurance carrier of any material defect,

          servicing the Property and the roofs, which have not been disclosed to
          Purchaser in writing prior to the date of this Agreement.

     (f)  To the best of Seller's actual knowledge, all Improvements on the Land
          were permitted conforming structures under applicable zoning and
          building laws and ordinances in effect when the Improvements were

          current and proposed applicable zoning and building laws and
          ordinances.

    (g)   During the period between the date of this Agreement and Closing,
          Seller shall continue to operate and manage the Property in a prudent,
          businesslike and responsible manner consistent with its operation and
          management prior to the date of this Agreement and keep same clear of
          accumulations of trash, debris or overgrowth of vegetation.  Seller
          shall: (i) continue to maintain all of the present services to the
          Property, (ii) make all repairs and replacements in the ordinary
          course of business to the Property (excluding capital expenditures in
          excess of $100.00 per unit), and (iii) not remove any of the personal
          property from the Property except in replacement of same.  In
          addition, Seller shall make all payments due prior to Closing in
          connection with the Property, including all utility payments and
          payments on any other obligations affecting the Property.
          Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject only to Permitted Outstanding
          Reservations, exclusive possession of the Property shall be conveyed
          to Purchaser at Closing, and, accordingly, Seller shall not accept any
          reservations for hotel or transient guests at the Property which would
          affect the Property after October 15, 2003 or at rates which are
          inconsistent with rates presently charged by Seller.

    (h)   To the best of Seller's knowledge, Seller is vested with good,
          marketable and insurable fee simple title to the Realty subject only
          to the Permitted Exceptions as provided herein; and Seller is vested
          with good and marketable title, subject only to the Permitted
          Exceptions, to all fixtures, equipment, furnishings and items of
          personal property referred to in Section 1(b) above free of all
          financing and other liens or encumbrances (except only for mortgage
          and security interests to the extent that the same are applicable to
          the Property while owned by Seller, all of which are to be satisfied
          and released at Closing).

    (i)   Seller shall comply prior to Closing with all applicable provisions of
          all laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances of all governmental
          authorities having jurisdiction over the Property, provided, only,
          however, that Seller shall have no obligation to adapt any units
          within the Property to comply with the requirements of the Americans
          with Disabilities Act.  Seller shall be responsible for and shall
          promptly pay all amounts owed for labor, materials supplied, services
          rendered and/or any other bills or amounts related to Seller and
          Seller's ownership and/or operation of the Property prior to Closing.

    (j)   Prior to Closing, no portion of the Property or any interest therein,
          beneficial or otherwise, shall be alienated, further encumbered,
          conveyed or otherwise transferred.  In addition, Seller shall not
          discuss or negotiate any potential sale of the Property with any third
          party during the term hereof.

    (k)   The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Seller
          have been duly authorized and no consent of any other person or entity
          to such execution, delivery and performance is required to render this
          document a valid and binding instrument enforceable against Seller in
          accordance with its terms.  Neither the execution of this Agreement or
          the consummation of the transactions

                                      -21-
<PAGE>

          contemplated hereby will: (i) result in a breach of, or default under,
          any agreement to which Seller (or any of the entities or persons
          comprising Seller) is a party or by which the Property is bound, or
          (ii) violate any restrictions to which Seller is subject.

    (l)   Seller is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of the United
          States tax laws and to which reference is made in Internal Revenue
          Code Section 1445(b)(2).  At Closing, Seller shall deliver to
          Purchaser an affidavit to such effect, and also stating Seller's
          employer identification number and the state within the United States
          under which Seller was organized and exists.  Seller acknowledges and
          agrees that Purchaser shall be entitled to fully comply with Internal
          Revenue Code Section 1445 and all related sections and regulations, as
          same may be modified and amended from time to time, and Seller shall
          act in accordance with all reasonable requirements of Purchaser to
          effect such full compliance by Purchaser.

    (m)   To the best of Seller's actual knowledge, without any independent
          investigation or inquiry, there has not been and there is not now: (i)
          any Hazardous Substance (as hereinafter defined) present on the
          Realty, except for such materials as are normally and customarily used
          for household purposes or in the operation or maintenance or apartment
          complexes, and which are not in violation of any environmental law,
          (ii) any present or past generation, recycling, reuse, sale, storage,
          handling, transport and/or disposal of any Hazardous Substance on the
          Realty, except for such materials as are normally and customarily used
          for household purposes or in the operation or maintenance or apartment
          complexes, and which are not in violation of any environmental law,,
          or (iii) any failure to comply with any applicable local, state or
          federal environmental laws, regulations, ordinances or administrative
          or judicial orders relating to the generation, recycling, reuse, sale,
          storage, handling, transport and/or disposal of any Hazardous
          Substance.  Seller has not received any notice from any governmental
          authority regarding the presence of any Hazardous Substance, any
          present or past generation, recycling, reuse, sale, storage, handling,
          transport and/or disposal of any Hazardous Substance or any failure to
          comply with any applicable local, state or federal environmental laws,
          regulations, ordinances or administrative or judicial orders relating
          to the generation, recycling, reuse, sale, storage, handling,
          transport and/or disposal of any Hazardous Substance.  Seller shall at
          all times prior to Closing comply with all applicable local, state or
          federal environmental laws, regulations, ordinances or administrative
          or judicial orders relating to the generation, recycling, reuse, sale,
          storage, handling, transport and/or disposal of any Hazardous
          Substance and Seller shall not generate, recycle, reuse, sell, store,
          handle, transport and/or dispose of any Hazardous Substance on the
          Property without the prior written consent of Purchaser, except for
          such materials as are normally and customarily used for household
          purposes or in the operation or maintenance or apartment complexes,
          and which are not in violation of any environmental law.  As used
          herein, the term "Hazardous Substance" means any substance or material
          defined or designated as a hazardous or toxic

                                      -22-
<PAGE>

          waste material or substance, or other similar term by any federal,
          state or local environmental statute, regulation or ordinance
          presently or hereinafter in effect, as such statute, regulation or
          ordinance may be amended from time to time.

    (n)   As of the Closing, except only for the Permitted Outstanding
          Reservations, there shall be no leases or other occupancy or
          possessory agreements or contracts affecting the Property, whether
          oral or written, including, without limitation, any hotel or transient
          guests on the Property or any unfulfilled hotel or guest reservations
          affecting the Property.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the Closing for a period of one (1)
year.

    10.   Purchaser's Representations.  Purchaser represents to Seller as
          ---------------------------
follows:
    (a)   Purchaser has previously reviewed and considered the nature of this
          transaction and the Inspection Period will enable Purchaser to
          investigate the Property and all aspects of the transaction.  In
          electing to proceed with this transaction, Purchaser shall have
          determined that the Property is satisfactory to Purchaser in all
          respects, and is purchasing the Property in "as is" physical
          condition, subject only to any representations of Seller expressly set
          forth in this Agreement.  Purchaser has and will rely solely on
          Purchaser's own independent investigations and inspections, and
          Purchaser has not relied and will not rely on any representation of
          Seller other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.  It is
          expressly covenanted and agreed that, except as expressly provided in
          this Agreement, neither the Seller, nor any employee, agent,
          representative or any other person acting on behalf of the Seller has
          made or will make any representation or warranty of any kind or nature
          whatsoever, express or implied, concerning the physical condition of
          the Property, or any part or portion thereof, or its state of repair,
          or the presence or the absence of any latent or patent defects, or its
          income potential, expenses or uses, or its merchantability, or fitness
          for any use or purpose.  Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that its
          agreement to accept the Property in "AS IS" condition, without
          representation or warranty, except as expressly provided in this
          Agreement, is a material part of the consideration being bargained for
          by Seller, without which consideration, Seller will not agree to sell
          the Property on the price and terms set forth herein.

    (b)   The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser
          have been duly authorized, and this Agreement is binding on Purchaser
          and enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms.  No
          consent of any other person or entity to such execution, delivery and
          performance is required.

    11.   Default Provisions.  In the event of the failure or refusal of the
          ------------------
Purchaser to close this transaction, without fault on Seller's part and without
failure of title or any conditions

                                      -23-
<PAGE>

precedent to Purchaser's obligations hereunder, Seller shall receive the Deposit
together with all interest earned thereon as agreed and liquidated damages for
said breach, and as Seller's sole and exclusive remedy for default of Purchaser,
whereupon the parties shall be relieved of all further obligations hereunder,
except those obligations which are specifically stated herein to survive the
termination or Closing of this transaction.

     In the event of a default by Seller under this Agreement, Purchaser at its
option shall have the right to: (i) receive the return of the Deposit together
with interest earned thereon, whereupon the parties shall be released from all
further obligations under this Agreement, except those obligations which are
specifically stated herein to survive the termination or Closing, unless the
default was caused by the willful act, omission, or intentional material
misrepresentation of Seller in which event Seller shall continue to be liable
for damages caused thereby, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, or,
alternatively, (ii) seek specific performance of the Seller's obligations
hereunder and/or any other equitable remedies, thereby waiving damages.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a default by either party of
any obligations which specifically survive Closing, then the non-defaulting
party shall be entitled to seek any legal redress permitted by law or equity.
The provisions hereof shall survive Closing.

     12.  Prorations.  Real estate and personal property taxes, utilities and
          ----------
all other proratable items (including without limitation room rentals paid or to
be paid by guests of the Property covering periods of time both before and after
Closing), shall be prorated as of the date of Closing.  Purchaser shall receive
a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing for all pre-paid room rentals.
Seller shall be entitled to all room rentals with respect to periods on or
before Closing, which are paid after Closing as to guests occupying any portion
of the Property as of the Closing date. Seller and Purchaser shall adjust for
such room rentals within sixty (60) days

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

following the Closing date. Seller shall pay all sales and/or use tax due on
revenues received and purchases made prior to the Closing date and shall comply
with all statutory provisions necessary for Purchaser to avoid transferee
liability for same. In the event the taxes for the year of Closing are unknown,
the tax proration will be based upon the taxes for the prior year, and at the
request of either party, the taxes for the year of Closing shall be reprorated
and adjusted when the tax bill for such year is received and the actual amount
of taxes is known. If the net prorations under this Section result in a credit
to Seller, Purchaser shall pay such credit in cash at Closing. If, however, the
net prorations hereunder result in a credit to Purchaser, such credit shall be
applied as a reduction in the Purchase Price and, correspondingly, the principal
amount of the Purchase Money Note. The provisions of this Section shall survive
the Closing.

     13.  Improvement Liens.  Certified, confirmed or ratified liens for
          -----------------
governmental improvements as of the date of Closing, if any, shall be paid in
full by Seller, and pending liens for governmental improvements as of the date
of Closing shall be assumed by the Purchaser, provided that where the
improvement has been substantially completed as of the date of Closing, such
pending lien shall be considered certified.

     14.  Closing Costs.  The parties shall bear the following costs:
          -------------
    (a)   The Purchaser shall be responsible for payment of the following: (i)

          the cost thereof shall not exceed $250.00.

    (b)   The Seller shall be responsible for payment of the following: (i) any
          costs associated with issuance of the Commitment (including the
          premium for the

          owner's policy issued pursuant thereto), (ii) the cost of the Survey,

          of any other restrictive covenants and on any documents necessary to
          clear title.

    (c)   Each party shall pay its own legal fees.

    15.   Closing.  Subject to other provisions of this Agreement for extension,
          -------
the closing (the "Closing") shall be held on August 15, 2001 or such earlier
date as Purchaser may request on not less than fourteen (14) days prior written
notice to Seller. Closing shall be held at the office of Seller's counsel.

    At Closing, Seller shall execute and/or deliver to Purchaser the following
documents:

          Permitted Exceptions,

    (b)   an appropriate mechanic's lien affidavit, sufficient in form and
          content for any title insurance company to delete the standard
          exceptions for mechanic's liens, and, to the extent of work performed

          Franchise Agreement is in full force and effect and free of any
          default by Seller, and (ii) to the best of Ramada's knowledge, Seller
          has paid all amounts due, and has complied with all of its
          obligations, under the Franchise Agreement up to the date of transfer,

          -------
there are no real estate brokers, salesmen or finders involved in this
transaction.  If a claim for brokerage in connection with the transaction is
made by any broker, salesman or finder, claiming to have dealt through or on
behalf of one of the parties hereto ("Indemnitor"), Indemnitor shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless the other party hereunder ("Indemnitee"), and

     17.  Assignability.  Purchaser shall be entitled to assign its rights
          -------------
hereunder to any subsidiary or any other entity controlled by Purchaser.  No
other assignment of this Agreement shall be permitted without the prior written

absolute discretion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment shall be
binding upon or effective against Seller unless such assignment is in writing,
is executed by the assignor and assignee, with the assignor expressly
acknowledging that the assignment in no way releases the assignor from any
duties, liabilities or obligations under the Agreement, and with the assignee
expressly assuming and agreeing to pay and perform all of the assignor's duties,
liabilities or obligations under the Agreement, and a fully executed counterpart
of the assignment delivered to Seller.  In the event that Purchaser assigns its

hereof, and shall be required to unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee
payment and performance of the Purchase Money Note and Purchase Money Mortgage.

     18.  Inspections.  Purchaser, and Purchaser's agents and contractors, shall

9800, for purposes of inspection and making tests and studies thereon.  Seller
shall have the right to require Purchaser, and Purchaser's agents and
contractors, to enter upon the Property only when accompanied by Seller or a
representative of Seller.  Throughout the term of this Agreement, Seller, its
agents and employees shall at all times cooperate with Purchaser, its agents and
contractors in connection with their performance of the inspections provided
herein.  All such inspections, tests and studies shall be undertaken by

                                      -28-
<PAGE>

Purchaser in a manner and at such times and places so as to not unreasonably
disturb or interfere with the quiet enjoyment of the Property by Seller's guests
and/or tenants.  Purchaser agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller
from and against all liabilities, damages, claims, costs, fees and expenses
whatsoever (including reasonable attorney's fees and court costs at trial and
all appellate levels) arising out of or resulting from any physical damage to
the Property caused by Purchaser, or Purchaser's agents, contractors or
employees, in connection with such inspection or investigation.

     19.  Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any actions
          --------------
taken in good faith, but only for its gross or willful negligence.  The parties
hereby indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any loss,
liability, claim or damage whatsoever (including reasonable attorney's fees and
court costs at trial and all appellate levels) the Escrow Agent may incur or be
exposed to in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder except for gross negligence
or willful misconduct.  If there be any dispute as to the disposition of the
Deposit held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the
Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to interplead said amount with any court of
competent jurisdiction and thereby be released from all obligations hereunder.
The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any failure of the depository.
Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Escrow Agent is acting as counsel to
Seller in this transaction, and that this conflict of interest does not
disqualify Escrow Agent from acting in such dual capacity.  Purchaser further
acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any dispute regarding this
transaction or the Agreement (including, without limitation, a dispute regarding
disbursement of amounts being held by Escrow Agent), Escrow Agent shall not be
disqualified from representing Seller with regard to such dispute,
notwithstanding its status as Escrow Agent.

          cost (the "Inventory Cost"), evidenced by paid invoices, paid receipts

          shall be determined by Purchaser and Riviera at a mutually convenient
          time on the day prior to the date of Closing, and shall be adjusted,
          to the extent feasible, for sales made on the date of Closing.  The
          parties agree to cooperate with each other and to act in good faith in
          determining the Inventory Cost.  The Inventory Cost shall be paid by

          (or its designee), and shall join in any applications that are
          required for that purpose. Purchaser (or its designee) shall be solely
          responsible for and shall pay all fees required to be paid by the
          Division in connection with the transfer contemplated hereunder. There
          shall be no separate charge for the transfer of the Liquor License to
          Purchaser (or its designee). The Closing shall not be conditioned upon
          the

                                      -34-

          transfer of the Liquor License; however, the terms hereof shall
          survive Closing until the Liquor License is transferred to Purchaser
          (or its designee) or such transfer is denied by the Division.

     (d)  In the event that the Liquor License is not transferred by the Closing
          date, the Inventory shall exclude any beer and wine. In such event,
          the beer and wine shall be stored in a cool and secure location and
          transferred at the time the Liquor License is transferred to
          Purchaser, or removed from the Property by Riviera in the event the
          Division denies consent to the transfer. The provisions hereof shall
          survive Closing.
