under Legal Requirements. If any Landlord’s audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent, and either Tenant agrees with the results of Landlord’s audit or the matter is otherwise determined or compromised, then Tenant
shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date when said payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof. If any Landlord’s
audit discloses a deficiency in the determination or reporting of Gross Revenue, which, as finally agreed or determined, exceeds three percent, Tenant shall pay the costs of the portion of Landlord’s audit allocable to the determination of such

date, then Tenant will pay Landlord within 10 days after demand, as Additional Charges, an amount equal to the interest computed at the Interest Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment
thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges to Landlord pursuant to the requirements of this Lease, Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the entity to which they would otherwise be due and
Landlord shall pay the same from monies received from Tenant. 
 3.5 Payment of Impositions. (a) (i) Subject to Article 8
relating to permitted contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest, or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be
added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities where feasible, or, as required under the Loan Agreement, to any escrow accounts related to Impositions, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies
of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such
Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any
fine, penalty, premium, further interest, or cost may be added thereto. 
 (ii) Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or
permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and file all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord’s net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, ad valorem, franchise taxes, and taxes on its capital stock, and
Tenant, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by Government Agencies. 

(iii) If any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, then the same shall be paid over to
or retained by Tenant if no Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing. If an Event of Default shall have been declared by Landlord and be continuing, then any such refund shall be paid over to or retained by Landlord. 

(iv) Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with
respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. 
 (v) In the event Government Agencies
classify any property covered by this Lease as personal property, then Tenant shall file, or cause the Management Parties to file, all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent
it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for
property covered by this Lease and/or gross receipts tax returns for Rent received by Landlord from Tenant, Landlord shall file the same with reasonable cooperation from Tenant. 

  
 - 16 - 








 (vi) Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for
Tenant to prepare a protest which Landlord shall file. Landlord may, upon notice to Tenant, at Landlord’s option and at Landlord’s sole expense, appeal, protest, or institute such other proceedings (in its or Tenant’s name) as
Landlord may deem appropriate to effect a reduction of real estate assessments and Tenant shall fully cooperate with Landlord in such protest, appeal, or other action. 

(vii) Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge;
provided, however, that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions (except that Landlord shall be responsible for any interest or penalties incurred as a result
of Landlord’s failure promptly to forward the same). 
 (viii) In addition, Tenant shall pay the following: 

(A) Utility Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water, and other utilities
used in connection with the Leased Property. 
 (B) Insurance Premiums. Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid all premiums for the
insurance coverage required to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to Article 9. 
 (C) Other Charges. Tenant shall pay or cause to be
paid all other amounts, liabilities, and obligations arising in connection with the Leased Property except those obligations expressly assumed by Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease or expressly stated not to be an obligation of Tenant
pursuant to this Lease. 
 (b) Reimbursement for Additional Charges. If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or
other Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, then Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of Tenant’s
estimate of such amounts. Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Lease. 

3.6 Late Payment of Rent, Etc. (a) If any installment of Minimum Rent, Percentage Rent, or Additional Charges shall not be paid
within five (5) Business Days after its due date, then Tenant shall pay Landlord, within five days after Landlord’s written demand therefor, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Interest
Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord or any Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Lease,
Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due and Landlord shall pay when due, or cause the applicable Mortgagee to pay when due, such Additional Charges to the Entity to
which they are due. If any payment due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within 30 days after its due date, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Interest Rate on the
amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. 

  
 - 17 - 








 (b) In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, except as
expressly provided in Section 3.4 with respect to permitted contests pursuant to Article 8, Tenant shall promptly pay (unless payment thereof is in good faith being contested and enforcement thereof is stayed) and discharge, as Additional
Charges, every fine, penalty, interest, and cost which may be added for non-payment or late payment of such items. Landlord shall have all legal, equitable, and contractual rights, powers, and remedies provided either in this Lease or by statute or
otherwise in the case of non-payment of Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent. 
 3.7 Net
Lease. Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Lease shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Lease which expressly provide
otherwise (including, without limitation, those provisions for adjustment, refunding, or abatement of such Rent and for the funding of Landlord’s obligations pursuant to Section 14.3). This Lease is a net lease, and, except to the extent
otherwise expressly specified in this Lease, it is agreed and intended that Rent payable hereunder by Tenant shall be paid without notice, demand, counterclaim, setoff, deduction, or defense and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution,
or reduction and that Tenant’s obligation to pay all such amounts, throughout the Term and all applicable Renewal Terms, is absolute and unconditional, and, except to the extent otherwise expressly specified in this Lease, the respective
obligations and liabilities of Tenant and Landlord hereunder shall in no way be released, discharged, or otherwise affected for any reason, including, without limitation: (a) any defect in the condition, merchantability, design, quality, or
fitness for use of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or the failure of the Leased Property to comply with all Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, any inability to occupy or use the Leased Property by reason of such noncompliance;
(b) any damage to, removal, abandonment, salvage, loss, condemnation, theft, scrapping, or destruction of, or any requisition or taking of, the Leased Property or any part thereof, or any environmental conditions on the Leased Property or any
property in the vicinity of the Leased Property; (c) any restriction, prevention, or curtailment of, or interference with, any use of the Leased Property or any part thereof including, without limitation, eviction; (d) any defect in title
to or rights to the Leased Property or any lien on such title or rights to the Leased Property; (e) any change, waiver, extension, indulgence, or other action or omission or breach in respect of any obligation or liability of or by any Person;
(f) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation, or other like proceedings relating to Tenant or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Lease by any trustee or receiver of
Tenant or any other Person, or by any court, in any such proceeding; (g) any right or claim that Tenant has or might have against any Person, including, without limitation, Landlord (other than a monetary default) or any vendor, manufacturer,
contractor of or for the Leased Property; (h) any failure on the part of Landlord or any other Person to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Lease, or of any other agreement; (i) any invalidity, unenforceability, rejection, or
disaffirmance of this Lease by operation of law or otherwise against or by Tenant or any provision hereof; (j) the impossibility of performance by Tenant or Landlord, or both; (k) any action by any court, administrative agency, or other
Government Agencies; (l) any interference, interruption, or cessation in the use, possession, or quiet enjoyment of the Leased Property or otherwise; or (m) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing,
whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, and whether 

  
 - 18 - 








 
or not Tenant shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply or be construed to restrict Tenant’s rights in the event of any
act or omission by Landlord constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, this Lease shall be non-cancellable by Tenant for any reason whatsoever, and, except as expressly provided in this
Lease, Tenant, to the extent now or hereafter permitted by Applicable Laws, waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to quit, terminate, or surrender this Lease or to any diminution, abatement, or reduction of Rent
payable hereunder. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease, under no circumstances or conditions shall Landlord be expected or required to make any payment of any kind hereunder or have any obligations with respect to the use, possession,
control, maintenance, alteration, rebuilding, replacing, repair, restoration, or operation of all or any part of the Leased Property, so long as the Leased Property or any part thereof is subject to this Lease, and Tenant expressly waives the right
to perform any such action at the expense of Landlord pursuant to any law. 
 3.8 Canadian Non-Residency. Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord is not a resident of Canada, and as such, all payment made under this Article 3 will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax. Tenant agrees to act as agent for Landlord with respect to the payments made under this Article 3 and
received by Landlord for which Landlord intends to make an undertaking under subsection 216(4) of the Canadian Income Tax Act to reduce the required withholding. Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant with respect to any penalties that may be charged
to Tenant by the Canadian tax authorities as a result of Landlord failing to comply with the requirements of such undertaking.

Tenant shall not, and Tenant shall ensure that the Management Parties shall not, make any Capital Expenditures without the prior written approval of Landlord, except as otherwise permitted herein. 

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3(a), Tenant shall be authorized to take appropriate remedial action (including,
without limitation, making any necessary Capital Expenditures) without receiving Landlord’s prior approval, to remedy or respond to any of the Emergency Requirements; provided that Tenant shall notify Landlord of any such remedial action that
requires a Capital Expenditure that is not de minimis. Tenant and the Management Parties shall cooperate with Landlord in the pursuit of any such action and shall have the right to participate therein. Landlord shall, upon written request by
Tenant, or the Management Parties on behalf of Tenant, promptly reimburse all expenditures made by Tenant or the Management Parties pursuant to this Section 5.3(b).

consent, which consent may be given or withheld by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion. The Management Agreement shall expressly provide that the Management Parties shall at all times be “eligible independent contractors” as
defined in Section 856(d) of the Code. The terms of the Management Agreement (a) shall not, in Landlord’s and its counsel’s reasonable opinion, cause the Rent to fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the
meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, and (b) shall expressly provide that if Landlord and its counsel reasonably conclude that the terms of the Management Agreement will have such an effect, then the terms of the Management Agreement
will be modified so that the Management Agreement, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord and its counsel, does not cause the Rent to be so characterized under the Code; provided, that no such modifications shall affect the amount of the Management
Fees (as defined in the Management Agreement) or the practical realization of the rights and benefits of the Management Parties thereunder. 
 5.8 Trademark License Agreements. (a) Tenant shall not operate, or permit the Management Parties to operate, any Hotel under a trade name other than the trade names licensed to Tenant under
the Trademark License Agreements, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be given or withheld by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion. 
 (b) To the extent any of the provisions of any Trademark License Agreement impose a greater obligation on Tenant than the corresponding provisions of this Lease, then Tenant shall be obligated to comply
with, and to take all reasonable actions necessary to prevent breaches or defaults under, the provisions of such Trademark License Agreement. It is the intent of the parties hereto that, except as otherwise specifically provided by this Lease,
Tenant shall comply in every respect with the provisions of any Trademark License Agreement to which Tenant is a party so as to avoid any default thereunder during the term of this Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree to cooperate fully with each other
in the event it becomes necessary to obtain a trademark license extension or modification or a new trademark license for the Leased Property; provided, that Landlord shall pay the entire cost of any upgrades required by any licensor.

all encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances.

by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in good faith and with due diligence; provided, that (a) the foregoing shall in no way be construed as relieving, modifying, or extending Tenant’s obligation to pay any Claims required hereunder
to be paid by Tenant as finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any mortgage, deed of trust, or other agreement encumbering the Leased Property or any part thereof (Landlord agreeing that

otherwise secured to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, (c) no part of the Leased Property nor any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of sale, forfeiture, attachment, or loss, and (d) Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds
harmless Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty, or reasonable expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Landlord in connection therewith or as a result thereof. Landlord agrees to join
in any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest; provided, that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or expenses in connection therewith)
unless Tenant agrees to assume and indemnify Landlord with respect to the same. Tenant or the Management Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest thereon which have been paid by
Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent that Landlord has been reimbursed by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, to provide reasonable security therefor, or to prosecute or cause to be
prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, then Landlord may, upon Notice to Tenant, pay such charges, together with interest and penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor, upon demand, as
Additional Charges.

as may be required under the Loan Agreement) keep the insurance described in Sections 9.1(b)(i) through (v). This insurance shall be written by companies authorized to issue insurance in the jurisdiction where the Leased Property is located and
otherwise acceptable to Landlord. If required by Landlord, the policies must name Landlord or Lender, if applicable, as an additional named insured. 
 (i) Property casualty insurance with limits and deductibles as may be reasonably required by Landlord. 
 (ii) General liability insurance with limits and deductibles as may be reasonably required by Landlord. 
 (iii) Fidelity bonds with limits and deductibles as may be reasonably required by Landlord, covering Tenant’s employees in job classifications normally bonded under prudent hotel management practices
in the United States or otherwise required by law. 
 (iv) Workers’ compensation benefits and employers’ liability
insurance for all persons employed by Tenant or the Management Parties on the Leased Property to the extent necessary to protect Landlord and the Leased Property against Tenant’s workers’ compensation claims. 

(v) Vehicle liability insurance for owned, non-owned, and hired vehicles, including, without limitation, rented and leased vehicles
containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000.00. 
 (vi) Such other insurance relating to the operation of the Hotel
business as Landlord may reasonably request; provided, that such other insurance is customary for facilities such as the Leased Property and the operation thereof. 
 9.2 Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance policies carried by Landlord or Tenant covering the Leased Property, the FF&E, the Hotels, or Tenant’s Personal Property, including, without
limitation, contents, fire, and casualty insurance, shall expressly waive any right of subrogation on the part of the insurer against the other party. Landlord and Tenant agree that their policies will include such waiver clause or endorsement so
long as the same are obtainable without extra cost, and in the event of such an extra cost the other party, at its election, may pay the same, but shall not be obligated to do so. Each party agrees to seek recovery from any applicable insurance
coverage prior to seeking recovery against the other. 

  
 - 26 -









 9.3 Form Satisfactory, Etc. All of the policies of insurance referred to in this
Article 9 shall be written in a form, with deductibles and by insurance companies reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and also shall meet and satisfy the requirements of any ground lessor, lender, or franchisor having any interest in the Leased
Property. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord policies or certificates of the insurance required under Section 9.1(b) as of their effective date (and, with respect to any renewal policy, upon or prior to the expiration of the existing policy), and
in the event of the failure of Tenant either to obtain such insurance as herein called for or to pay the premiums therefor, or to deliver such policies or certificates thereof to Landlord at the times required, Landlord shall be entitled, but shall
have no obligation, to obtain such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any premium or premiums paid by Landlord for the coverages required under Section 9.1(b) upon written demand therefor, and repay
the same within 30 days after Notice of such failure from Landlord shall constitute an Event of Default. Each insurer mentioned in this Article 9 shall agree, by endorsement to the policy or policies issued by it, or by independent instrument
furnished to Landlord, to provide 30 days’ written notice to Landlord before the policy or policies in question shall be materially altered, allowed to expire, or canceled. 

9.4 Blanket Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 9, Tenant or Landlord may bring the
insurance provided for herein within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant or Landlord; provided, that the coverage afforded to Landlord and Tenant will not be reduced or diminished or
otherwise be different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Lease by reason of the use of such blanket policy of insurance; and provided further, that the requirements of this Article 9 are
otherwise satisfied. 
 9.5 Separate Insurance. Tenant shall not on Tenant’s own or pursuant to the request or
requirement of any third party, take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in this Article 9 to be furnished, or increase the amount of any then existing insurance by securing an additional
policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of the insurance, including, without limitation, and in all cases, Landlord, are each included therein as an additional insured, and the loss is
payable under such additional separate insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under this Lease. Tenant shall immediately provide Notice to Landlord that Tenant has obtained any such separate insurance or of the increasing of any of the
amounts of the then existing insurance. 
 9.6 Reports on Insurance Claims. Tenant shall promptly investigate and make a
complete and timely written report to the appropriate insurance company as to all accidents, claims for damage relating to the ownership, operation, and maintenance of any Hotel, any damage or destruction to any Hotel, and the estimated cost of
repair thereof, and shall prepare any and all reports required by any insurance company in connection therewith. All such reports shall be timely filed with the insurance company as required under the terms of the insurance policy involved, and a
final copy of such report shall be furnished to Landlord. 
 9.7 Indemnification of Landlord. Except as expressly
provided herein, Tenant shall protect, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord for, from, and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs, and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or 

  
 - 27 -









 
incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of: (a) any accident, injury to, or death of persons, or loss of or damage to property of third parties, occurring during the Term on or
about the Leased Property or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way under Tenant’s control, and (b) any use, misuse, condition, management, maintenance, or repair by Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant of the Leased Property or
Tenant’s Personal Property during the Term, or any litigation, proceeding, or claim by governmental entities to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to such use, misuse, condition, management, maintenance, or repair; provided,
that Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall not apply to any liability, obligation, claim, damage, penalty, cause of action, cost, or expense arising from any gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its employees, agents, contractors,
or invitees. Tenant, at its expense, shall defend any such claim, action, or proceeding asserted or instituted against Landlord covered under this indemnity (and shall not be responsible for any duplicative attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord)
or may compromise or otherwise dispose of the same. The obligations of Tenant under this Section 9.7 shall survive the termination of this Lease for a period of one year. 
 Article 10 
 DAMAGE, REPAIR, AND CONDEMNATION 

10.1 Damage and Repair. (a) If, during the Term, a Hotel is damaged by a Minor Casualty, then Tenant shall proceed, or cause
the Management Parties to proceed, with all reasonable diligence, to process the claim with the applicable insurance carriers, including, without limitation, settling such claim, and to make the necessary arrangements with appropriate contractors
and suppliers to repair and/or replace the damaged portion of such Hotel. Landlord’s consent shall not be needed for Tenant or the Management Parties to perform any of the foregoing, all of which shall be performed in accordance with
Tenant’s reasonable judgment; provided, that all such work shall be undertaken (i) in a workmanlike manner, (ii) in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.3, and (iii) in accordance with plans and specifications
approved by Landlord (which approval or disapproval shall be made within 10 Business Days after Landlord receives the applicable plans or specifications and, if applicable, within 10 Business Days after Landlord receives any modifications of said
plans or specifications to accommodate Landlord’s comments); provided, that the parties agree that the standard for such repair and/or replacement shall be to repair and/or replace the damaged portion of such Hotel to levels of quality and
quantity that are equal to those that existed with respect to such portion of such Hotel prior to the occurrence of the damage at issue. Landlord agrees to sign promptly any documents which are necessary to process and/or adjust the claim with the
insurance carriers, as well as any contracts with such contractors and/or suppliers. 
 (b) If, during the Term, a Hotel suffers
a Total Casualty, then Landlord shall, at its cost and expense and with all reasonable diligence, repair and/or replace the damaged portion of such Hotel to the same condition as existed previously. Such damage or destruction shall not terminate
this Lease. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article 10 to the contrary, if a Hotel suffers a Total Casualty during the last 24 months of the Term, then either of Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to
such Hotel by giving Notice to the other within 30 days after the date of damage or destruction, whereupon all accrued Rent with respect to such Hotel shall be paid immediately, this Lease shall automatically terminate with respect to such Hotel
five (5) days after the date of such Notice and, upon such termination, Minimum Rent payable hereunder shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Minimum Rent allocated to the applicable Hotel set forth in Exhibit A and the Thresholds shall be
reduced by the 

  
 - 28 -









 
applicable Threshold Allocation. “Threshold Allocation” means (only for purposes of this Article 10), with respect to any applicable Hotel and as applied to the Thresholds, an
amount calculated by multiplying the Thresholds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Minimum Rent allocated to the applicable Hotel as set forth in Exhibit A, and the denominator of which is the aggregate Minimum Rent for all of the Hotels
as set forth in Exhibit A. 
 (c) If, during the Term, a Hotel is damaged by fire, casualty, or other cause to a greater extent
than a Minor Casualty, but not to the extent of a Total Casualty, then Landlord shall, at its cost and expense and with all reasonable diligence, repair and/or replace the damaged portion of such Hotel to the same condition as existed previously.
Tenant shall have the right to discontinue operating, or cause the Management Parties to discontinue operating, the Hotel to the extent Tenant deems necessary to comply with applicable Legal Requirements or as necessary for the safe and orderly
operation of such Hotel. To the extent available, proceeds from the insurance described in Section 9.1 of this Lease shall be applied to such repairs and/or replacements. The parties agree that Landlord’s obligations to repair and/or
replace pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.1(c) shall be limited to the extent of available insurance proceeds (plus the amount of any applicable deductibles). The parties further agree that if Landlord is obligated to utilize such
available insurance proceeds to repay any obligations pursuant to any Mortgage, then Landlord shall be entitled to an equitable extension of time (in which Landlord has to fulfill its obligations pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 10.1(c)) that is sufficient to allow Landlord to obtain the necessary funding to replace such spent insurance proceeds and to make the repairs and/or replacements required hereunder. The parties further agree that Landlord’s
obligations to repair and/or replace pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.1(c) shall be subject to Landlord’s ability to obtain such entitlements and/or other governmental approvals as may be necessary to undertake such repair
and/or replacement; provided, that Landlord shall undertake good faith efforts to obtain such entitlements and/or approvals. 

(d) Subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, all insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s
Personal Property shall be paid to Tenant, and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with this Section 10.1(d), Tenant shall hold such proceeds to pay the cost of repairing or replacing
damaged Tenant’s Personal Property and, if this Lease terminates, pay the same over to Landlord. If Landlord undertakes to restore the Leased Property as hereinabove provided, then Tenant shall either (i) restore all of Tenant’s
Personal Property, if any, or (ii) replace Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, with items of the same or better quality and utility to the operation of the Leased Property. 

10.2 Condemnation. (a) In the event all or substantially all of a Hotel shall be taken in any eminent domain, condemnation,
compulsory acquisition, or similar proceeding by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or in the event a portion of a Hotel shall be so taken, but the result is that it is unreasonable to continue to operate such
Hotel in accordance with the standards required by this Lease, this Lease shall terminate with respect to such Hotel as of the date of the taking and, upon such termination, Minimum Rent payable hereunder shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
Minimum Rent allocated to the applicable Hotel set forth in Exhibit A and the Thresholds shall be reduced by the applicable Threshold Allocation. Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to initiate such proceedings as they deem advisable to
recover any compensation to which they may be entitled. 

  
 - 29 -









 (b) In the event a portion of a Hotel shall be taken by the events described in
Section 10.2(a), or an entire Hotel is affected but on a temporary basis, and the result is not to make it unreasonable to continue to operate such Hotel, this Lease shall not terminate, but the Rent due hereunder shall be equitably abated
taking into consideration, among other relevant factors, the number of useable rooms, the amount of square footage, or revenues affected or taken by such events. However, so much of any Award for any such partial taking or condemnation as shall be
necessary to render the Hotel equivalent to its condition prior to such event shall be used for such purpose and Tenant shall have the right to discontinue operating, or to cause the Management Parties to discontinue operating, the Hotel or portion
of the Hotel to the extent it deems necessary for the safe and orderly operation of the Hotel. 
 10.3 Disbursement of
Award. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord, Tenant, and any Mortgagee shall transfer any part of the Award received by them, respectively, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Improvements and any deficiency Landlord
or Tenant has agreed to pay to Mortgagee, or any Person designated by Mortgagee, and such amounts shall be disbursed in accordance with terms of the Loan Documents. 
 Article 11 
 SUBORDINATION, ETC. 

11.1 Subordination. (a) The rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease and any and all liens, rights, and interests
(whether choate or inchoate and including, without limitation, all mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens under applicable law) owed, claimed, or held by Tenant in and to the Leased Property are and shall be in all respects subject,
subordinate, and inferior to the Loan and the Loan Documents and to the liens, security interests, and all other rights and interest created or to be created therein or thereby for the benefit of Lender, and securing the repayment of the Loan
including, without limitation, those created under the Mortgage covering, among other things, the Leased Property, and filed or to be filed of record in the public records maintained for the recording of mortgages in the jurisdictions where the
Leased Property is located, and all renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, spreaders, consolidations, amendments, modifications, and replacements thereof and to all sums secured thereby and advances made thereunder with the same force and
effect as if the Loan had been executed and delivered and the Mortgage recorded prior to the execution and delivery of this Lease. At its option and in its sole discretion, Lender may elect to give the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease
priority over the lien of the Mortgage. In the event of such election, the rights and interest of Tenant under this Lease automatically shall have priority over the lien of the Mortgage and no additional consent or instrument shall be necessary or
required. However, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver whatever instruments may be reasonably requested by Lender for such purposes, and in the event Tenant fails so to do after demand in writing, Tenant does hereby make, constitute, and
irrevocably appoint Landlord as its attorney-in-fact and in its name, place, and stead so to do. 
 (b) To induce Landlord to
enter into this Lease, Tenant has agreed to execute and deliver the Mortgage and encumber and grant a security interest in (i) the leasehold interest created hereby and (ii) all rights of Tenant under this Lease. 

11.2 No Covenants, Conditions, or Restrictions. (a) Landlord covenants that after the Commencement Date and during the Term,
there will not be (unless Tenant has given its prior 

  
 - 30 -









 
consent thereto) any covenants, conditions, or restrictions, including, without limitation, reciprocal easement agreements or cost-sharing arrangements (individually or collectively referred to
as “CC&R(s)”) affecting the Leased Property (i) which would prohibit the Management Parties’ operation of the Hotels in accordance with the terms of this Lease and the Management Agreement, including, without
limitation, related amenities proposed for the Hotels; (ii) which would allow the Hotels’ facilities (for example, parking spaces) to be used by persons other than guests, invitees, or employees of the Hotels except as approved by Tenant;
(iii) which would allow the Hotels’ facilities to be used for specified charges or rates which have not been approved by the Management Parties; or (iv) which would subject the Hotels to exclusive arrangements regarding food and
beverage operation or retail merchandise. 
 (b) Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to manage and operate the Hotels in
compliance with all obligations imposed on Landlord or the Hotels pursuant to any CC&Rs to the extent (i) such obligations are known to the Management Parties (ii) such CC&Rs relate to the management and operation of the Hotels and
(iii) the CC&Rs are not inconsistent with the Management Agreement. 
 11.3 Liens; Credit. Tenant shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any liens from being filed against the Hotels which arise from any maintenance, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, or replacements in or to the Hotels, and shall cooperate fully in obtaining the
release of any such liens. 
 11.4 Amendments Requested by Mortgagee. If requested by any Mortgagee or prospective
Mortgagee, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver any amendment of this Lease that is reasonably required by such Mortgagee or prospective Mortgagee; provided, that Tenant shall be under no obligation to amend this Lease if the result of such
amendment would be to materially and adversely increase Tenant’s obligations or to materially and adversely affect Tenant’s rights under this Lease or to amend Article 5. Any such amendment shall be in effect only for the period of time in
which such Mortgage is outstanding. 
 11.5 Cash Management System. Landlord directs Tenant and Tenant acknowledges and
agrees, pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, to deposit or cause to be deposited, and to cause the Management Parties to deposit, all Receipts from the operation of the Leased Property and the Hotels into the Cash Management
System so long as any amounts under the Loan are outstanding. Landlord hereby expressly authorizes Tenant to receive any and all amounts released by Lender from the Cash Management System, including, without limitation, amounts deposited by Lender
into any remainder account or subaccount or released by Lender from any reserve or escrow account or subaccount. For each month during the Term, the difference (the “Monthly Deposit Credit”) between (a) all Receipts deposited
by or on behalf of Tenant into the Cash Management System and (b) the sum of (i) any such funds deposited into the operating expense subaccount on account of the Leased Property, (ii) the allocated share of funds deposited into the
insurance escrow subaccount thereunder on account of the Leased Property relating to insurance to be provided by Tenant under Section 9.1(b), and (iii) any other such funds deposited into the operating lessee remainder subaccount
thereunder on account of the Leased Property, shall be deemed to offset and be applied to the payment of the Rent owed by Tenant for such month. If the Monthly Deposit Credit exceeds the amount of the Rent owed by Tenant for any given month (the
“Excess Monthly Deposit Credit”), then the Excess Monthly Deposit Credit shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate until paid or otherwise satisfied by Landlord or 

  
 - 31 -









 
applied as payment of rent in future periods; provided, that Tenant hereby waives its right to enforce or collect Excess Monthly Deposit Credits in cash against Landlord until the date which is
12 months after the Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full and any such Excess Monthly Deposit Credits shall be subject to and subordinate in all respects to the Loan and the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and provisions of
Section 11.1. 
 11.6 Compliance with Special Purpose Provisions. So long as the Loan is outstanding, Tenant hereby
represents, warrants, and covenants that it is, shall be, and shall continue to be a Special Purpose Entity. 
 Article 12

 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 12.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: 

(a) should Tenant fail to make any payment of Minimum Rent or Percentage Rent within 5 Business Days after Notice thereof, or fail to
make payment of any other Rent or any other sum payable hereunder when due and such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days after Notice thereof; 
 (b) should Tenant fail to maintain the insurance coverages required under Article 9 and such failure shall continue for 10 Business Days after Notice thereof; 

(c) subject to Article 8 relating to permitted contests, should Tenant default in the due observance or performance of any of the terms,
covenants, or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and such default shall continue for a period of 30 days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;
provided, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time, and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be cured such default within 30 days after Notice
thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all due diligence, then such period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed 90 days) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due
diligence; 
 (d) should Tenant generally not be paying its debts as they become due or should Tenant make a general assignment
for the benefit of creditors; 
 (e) should any petition be filed by or against Tenant under the relevant bankruptcy laws, or
should any other proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy,
insolvency, or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for Tenant or for any substantial part of the property of Tenant and such
proceeding is not dismissed within 60 days after institution thereof, or should Tenant take any action to authorize any of the actions set forth above in this paragraph; 
 (f) should Tenant cause or institute any proceeding for its dissolution or termination; 

  
 - 32 -









 (g) unless Tenant shall be contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance
with Article 8, should the estate or interest of Tenant in the Leased Property or any part thereof be levied upon or attached in any proceeding and the same shall not be vacated, discharged, or fully bonded or otherwise secured to the reasonable
satisfaction of Landlord within the later of (i) 60 days after such attachment or levy, unless the amount in dispute is less than C$100,000.00 (as adjusted each year by increases or decreases in the Index), in which case Tenant shall give
notice to Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable way, and (ii) 30 days after receipt by Tenant of Notice thereof from Landlord; it being understood and agreed that Tenant may commence a contest of such matter pursuant to
Article 8 above following such Notice from Landlord; or 
 (h) should Tenant be in default under the Management Agreement beyond
any applicable cure period, 
 then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this
Lease by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time fixed in such Notice, this Lease shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under this Lease shall cease. Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies
available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Lease, including, without limitation, the right of reentry upon the Leased Property upon and at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default. 

12.2 Damages. Neither the termination of this Lease, the repossession of the Leased Property, the failure of Landlord to relet the
Leased Property, nor the reletting of all or any portion thereof shall relieve Tenant of its liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession, or reletting to the maximum extent permitted by law. In
the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property to and including the date of such termination. In addition, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord, at
Landlord’s option, as and for liquidated and agreed current damages for Tenant’s default, either: 
 (a) Without
termination of Tenant’s rights to possession of the Leased Property, each installment of Rent (including Default Rent as determined below) and other sums payable to Tenant by Landlord under this Lease as the same becomes due and payable, which
Rent and other sums shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date due until paid or otherwise discharged, and Landlord may enforce, by action or otherwise, any other term or covenant of this Lease; or 

(b) the sum of: 
 (i) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of termination, repossession, or reletting, and 
 (ii) the worth at the time of termination, repossession, or reletting of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of termination, repossession, or reletting, exceeds
the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided and as reduced for rentals received after the time of termination, repossession, or reletting, if and to the extent required by applicable law (the “worth at the time
of termination, repossession, or reletting” of the amount referred to in this subparagraph (ii) is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at the time of award plus 1%), and


  
 - 33 -









 (iii) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately
caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course, would be likely to result therefrom. 
 “Default Rent” for the purposes of this Section 12.2 shall be a sum equal to (A) the average of the annual amounts of the Percentage Rent for the three Fiscal Years immediately
preceding the Fiscal Year in which the termination, re-entry, or repossession takes place, or (B) if three Fiscal Years shall not have elapsed, the average of the Percentage Rent during the preceding Fiscal Years during which this Lease was in
effect, or (C) if one Fiscal Year has not elapsed, the amount derived by annualizing the Percentage Rent from the Commencement Date. 
 12.3 Waiver of Jury Trial. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim brought by any of the
parties hereto against the other or in respect of any matter whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Landlord and Tenant hereunder, Tenant’s occupancy of the Leased Property, and/or any claim for
injury or damage. 
 12.4 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this
Lease during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Lease
in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be required by Applicable Laws. 
 12.5 Landlord’s Right to Cure
Tenant’s Default. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Landlord, after Notice to Tenant with a courtesy copy to the Management Parties (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine
immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment
or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property or any portion thereof for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole
and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in
connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Interest Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand. 

12.6 Good Faith Dispute. If Tenant shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Default, then Tenant, before the expiration
of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Landlord, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor and (provided Tenant shall escrow disputed amounts, if any, pursuant to an escrow arrangement reasonably acceptable to
Landlord and Tenant) no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred; provided, that in the event of any eventual adverse determination, Tenant shall pay to Landlord interest on any disputed funds at the Interest Rate, from the date demand for
such funds was made by Landlord until the date of final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Interest Rate until paid. 

  
 - 34 -









 Article 13 
 HOLDING OVER 
 Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease shall be treated as a weekly tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to twice the Rent and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis). Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect)
sustained by reason of any such holding over. Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, to the extent applicable. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express, or implied, of
Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
 Article 14

 LANDLORD’S NOTICE OBLIGATIONS; LANDLORD’S DEFAULT 

14.1 Landlord’s Notice Obligation. Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant and the Management Parties of any materially
adverse matters affecting the Leased Property of which Landlord receives written notice or actual, conscious, present knowledge, and, to the extent Tenant and/or the Management Parties otherwise has no notice or actual knowledge thereof, Landlord
shall be liable for any liabilities, costs, damages, or claims (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from the failure to deliver such Notice to Tenant. As used in this Lease, “Landlord’s knowledge”
or words of similar import shall mean the actual (and not constructive or imputed), conscious, present knowledge, without independent investigation or inquiry of William D. Rahm, Vivek Melwani, A.J. Agarwal, Tyler Henritze, Michael Barr, and Daniel
Kamensky. 
 14.2 Landlord’s Default. (a) It shall be a breach of this Lease if Landlord fails to observe or
perform any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease on its part to be performed and such failure continues for a period of 30 days after Notice thereof from Tenant, unless such failure cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of 30
days, in which case such failure shall not be deemed a breach if Landlord proceeds within such 30 day period, with due diligence, to commence to cure the failure and thereafter diligently completes the curing thereof. The time within which Landlord
shall be obligated to cure any such failure also shall be subject to extension of time due to the occurrence of any Unavoidable Delay. If Landlord does not cure any such failure within the applicable time period as aforesaid, then Tenant may declare
the existence of a “Landlord Default” by a second Notice to Landlord. Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same. Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease for any Landlord Default and no right, for any such Landlord
Default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder. 
 (b) If Landlord shall in good faith
dispute the occurrence of a Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, then no Landlord Default shall be deemed to
have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof, whether through arbitration or otherwise; provided, that in the event of any such adverse determination, Landlord shall pay to Tenant
interest on any disputed funds at the Interest Rate, from the date demand for such funds was made by Tenant until the date of final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Interest Rate until paid. If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good
faith, to resolve any such dispute within 30 days after Landlord’s 

  
 - 35 -









 
Notice of dispute, then either may submit the matter for determination by arbitration, but only if such matter is required to be submitted to arbitration pursuant to any provision of this Lease,
or otherwise by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 14.3 Tenant’s Right to Cure. Subject to the provisions of
Section 14.2, if Landlord breaches any covenant to be performed by it under this Lease, then Tenant after Notice to and demand upon Landlord as provided in Section 14.2, without waiving or releasing any obligation hereunder, may (but shall
be under no obligation at any time thereafter to) make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Landlord. All sums so paid by Tenant and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees) so incurred, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date on which such sums or expenses are paid or incurred by Tenant, shall be paid by Landlord, to Tenant on demand. The rights of Tenant hereunder to cure and to secure
payment from Landlord in accordance with this Section 14.3 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to the Leased Property. 
 Article 15 
 TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD 

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has entered into the Loan and executed and/or delivered the Loan Documents to Lender and
Landlord has the unrestricted right to mortgage, cumber, convey, and assign its interest in the Leased Property to the mortgagee under the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that, at the request of Lender and in
consideration for the granting of the Leased Property to Tenant, Tenant has and hereafter shall enter into and execute certain Loan Documents, including the Mortgage, in order to mortgage, cumber, convey, and assign its interest in the Leased
Property to further secure the Loan. If Landlord conveys the Leased Property in accordance with the terms hereof to the mortgagee under the Mortgage, or to a grantee or transferee that expressly assumes in writing all obligations of Landlord
hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, then Landlord shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Lease arising or accruing from and after the date of
such conveyance or other transfer as to the Leased Property and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner. 
 Article 16 
 SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT 

16.1 Subletting and Assignment. (a) Except as provided in Section 16.3 and in this Section 16.1, Tenant shall not,
without Landlord’s prior written consent (which may be given or withheld by Landlord in its sole discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or otherwise transfer this Lease or sublease (which term shall be deemed to include
the granting of concessions, licenses, and the like), all or any part of the Leased Property or suffer or permit this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Lease to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged,
pledged, hypothecated, or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law, or permit the use or operation of the Leased Property by anyone other than Tenant (but the foregoing is not to be construed to
limit the Permitted Use or to restrict Tenant from engaging, or limit the requirement of Tenant to engage, the Management Parties or other hotel managers), or the Leased Property to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting. For purposes
of this Section 16.1, an assignment of this 

  
 - 36 -









 
Lease shall be deemed to include the following: without Landlord’s consent, any direct or indirect transfer of any interest in Tenant or any transaction pursuant to which Tenant is merged or
consolidated with another Entity or pursuant to which all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets are transferred to any other Entity, as if such change in control or transaction were an assignment of this Lease but shall not include any
involuntary liens or attachments contested by Tenant in good faith in accordance with Article 8. 
 (b) If this Lease is
assigned or if the Leased Property or any part thereof is sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant hereunder), then Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant, or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount
collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant, or occupant, as the case may be,
as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements, or obligations contained in this Lease. 
 (c) No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all
obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in Section 16.1. No assignment, subletting, or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use.
Any subletting, assignment, or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease in contravention of Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord’s option. 
 16.2 Required Sublease Provisions. Any sublease of any portion of the Leased Property entered into on or after the date hereof shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this
Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Lease or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, terminate
such sublease or take over all of the right, title, and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and, except as provided below, such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory
provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Lease, if such Mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such
sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset, or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous prepayment of more than one Accounting Period, (iv) be bound by any
covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Leased Property or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by
Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance, and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment;
(vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Leased Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives a written
Notice from Landlord or any Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such
party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Lease and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall,
at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable 

  
 - 37 -









 
instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and Tenant
shall remain liable for the payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the
provisions set forth in Section 16.1(a). No subtenant that is an Affiliate of Tenant shall be required to attorn to Landlord as set forth above in this Section 16.2. 
 16.3 Permitted Sublease and Assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant
may, without Landlord’s consent, sublease space at the Leased Property for any uses ancillary to the Permitted Use, so long as such subleases do not demise, in the aggregate, in excess of 3,000 square feet (exclusive of any parking garage
subleases), and will not violate or affect any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement. 
 16.4 Sublease Limitation.
For so long as Landlord or any Affiliate of Landlord or any Member or beneficiary of Landlord or any direct or indirect constituent owner thereof shall seek to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Code, anything contained in this
Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property on any basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits derived by the
business activities of such sublessee or (b) any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or
successor provision thereto. 
 Article 17 
 ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 17.1 Estoppel
Certificates. At any time and from time to time, upon not less than 10 Business Days prior Notice by either party, the party receiving such Notice shall furnish to the other a certificate certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full
force and effect (or that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified and setting forth the modifications), the date to which the Rent has been paid, that to its knowledge no Default or an Event of Default by the other party has occurred and
is continuing or, if a Default or an Event of Default shall exist, specifying in reasonable detail the nature thereof, and the steps being taken to remedy the same, and such additional information as the requesting party may reasonably request. If
such additional information reasonably requires more than 10 Business Days to provide, then the party furnishing such information shall be entitled to such additional period to respond to such request as may be reasonably required under the
circumstances. Any such certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 17.1 may be relied upon by the requesting party, its lenders, and any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Leased Property or the leasehold estate created hereby.

 17.2 Accounting and Annual Reconciliation. (a) Within 30 days after the close of each Accounting Period (or such
earlier time period as required under the Management Agreement), Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to deliver an interim accounting (the “Accounting Period Statement”) to Landlord showing Gross Revenues, and applications and
distributions thereof for the preceding Accounting Period. Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to transfer to Tenant, with each Accounting Period Statement, any interim 

  
 - 38 -









 
amounts due Tenant, subject to Working Capital needs, and shall retain any interim amounts due to the Management Parties. Calculations and payments of the Management Fees due to the Management
Parties, and distributions to Tenant made with respect to each Accounting Period within a Fiscal Year shall be accounted for cumulatively. 
 (b) Within 120 days after the end of each Fiscal Year (or such earlier time period as required under the Management Agreement), Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to deliver to Tenant and Landlord
a statement (the “Annual Operating Statement”) in reasonable detail summarizing the operations of the Hotels for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, audited and certified by a nationally recognized firm of certified public
accountants having hotel accounting experience as described in the Management Agreement. Landlord and Tenant shall promptly after Landlord’s receipt of such Annual Operating Statement, make any adjustments, by cash payment, in the amounts paid
or retained for such Fiscal Year as are needed because of the final figures set forth in such Annual Operating Statement as reconciled by the Management Parties and/or Tenant to the Accounting Period Statements. Such Annual Operating Statement shall
be controlling over the preceding Accounting Period Statements. 
 17.3 Books and Records. Books of control and account
pertaining to operations at the Hotels shall be kept by Tenant, or by the Management Parties on behalf of Tenant, on the accrual basis and in all material respects in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts and GAAP. Tenant, upon
Landlord’s reasonable request and at reasonable intervals during the Management Parties’ normal business hours, shall examine such records to seek to obtain such information therefrom as reasonably directed by Landlord. 

17.4 Business Plan. (a) Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to deliver to Landlord and Tenant for their review and
approval, at least 15 days (or such earlier time period as required under the Management Agreement) prior to the date on which Landlord is required to deliver same to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents for each Fiscal Year which begins after the
Commencement Date, a business plan showing the estimated Gross Revenues for the forthcoming Fiscal Year, in comparison to the forecasted Gross Revenues for the current Fiscal Year, each in a reasonably itemized and detailed, as well as summary,
form. Such comparison shall include the estimated percentage changes in such items for the forthcoming Fiscal Year compared to the current Fiscal Year. Tenant shall also cause the Management Parties to submit to Landlord for Landlord’s approval
the Capital Reserve Budget described in Section 5.2(c) and the Building Estimate described in Section 5.3 at the same time that it submits the business plan. Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to prepare the business plan in
accordance with the standards set forth in this Lease and the Management Agreement. Landlord shall have 5 Business Days after receipt of the business plan to review and approve such business plan, and, in the event that Landlord disapproves any
category in the business plan, Landlord shall notify Tenant, and Tenant shall, in turn provide the Management Parties in writing, with the specific reasons for Landlord’s disapproval, by category, within such 5 Business Day period. Landlord and
Tenant will attempt to resolve in good faith any such objections by Landlord within 5 Business Days following the Management Parties’ receipt of Tenant’s notice of Landlord’s disapproval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall
not be entitled to withhold its approval with respect to costs that are system-wide for Manager’s System, including, without limitation, any system-wide compensation or benefit programs; provided, that such programs are reasonably comparable to
others in the hospitality industry. Pending such agreement, Tenant shall operate, or cause the Management Parties to operate, the Hotels with respect to those categories that are in 

  
 - 39 -









 
dispute based on the previous Fiscal Year’s approved Business Plan, adjusted in accordance with changes in the GDP Deflator over the Fiscal Year just ended and anticipated changes in Gross
Revenues. If Landlord fails to provide any objection within the initial 5 Business Day period set forth above, the business plan as submitted by the Management Parties shall be deemed approved. If Landlord and Tenant cannot resolve in good faith any
such objections by Landlord within the second 5 Business Day period set forth above, then Landlord’s determination in respect of such objections shall control. The approved business plan for each Fiscal Year, as same may be revised by Landlord
to the extent such revisions are required by Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents, is herein referred to as the “Business Plan”. 
 (b) Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to diligently operate the Hotels in accordance with the Business Plan. 
 (c) In addition to the information described in the first sentence of Section 17.4(a), upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall cause the Management Parties to include (to the extent reasonably
available to the Management Parties) the following information along with each business plan submitted to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of Section 17.4(a): (i) general information concerning pay scales and benefits programs
applicable to employees of the Hotels, the Management Parties’ general staffing policies, and the Management Parties’ plans for staffing levels at the Hotels for the forthcoming Fiscal Year; (ii) the Management Parties’ marketing
plan for the forthcoming Fiscal Year; (iii) estimates of furniture, fixtures, and equipment and Capital Expenditure requirements and expenditures for the forthcoming three Fiscal Years; and (iv) estimates of the Hotels’ Working
Capital and Fixed Asset Supply needs for the forthcoming Fiscal Year. 
 Article 18 

LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO INSPECT 
 The parties acknowledge that Landlord is a direct or indirect controlled subsidiary of an entity, ESH Hospitality Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “REOC Parent”),
that is intended to qualify as a “real estate operating company” (a “REOC”) within the meaning of the U.S. Department of Labor plan assets regulation (Section 2510.3-101, Part 2510 of Chapter XXV, Title 29 of the Code of
Federal Regulations) and that it is intended that Landlord will have the rights, pursuant to this Lease, as would be reasonably necessary to result in the qualification of REOC Parent as a REOC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, without prejudice to the other rights provided to Landlord under this Lease, Tenant agrees to: (a) permit Landlord and REOC Parent to visit and inspect the Leased Property, to make such repairs
as Landlord is permitted or required to make pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and inspect and copy the books and records of Tenant, at such times as Landlord shall reasonably request; provided, that any inspection or repair by Landlord and REOC
Parent or their representatives will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s or the Management Parties’ use and operation of the Leased Property; (b) periodically (at least quarterly) provide Landlord and REOC Parent with information
and reports regarding Tenant’s or the Management Parties’ operation and management of the Leased Property and the performance of its duties under this Lease and with respect to renovations, alterations, general maintenance, repairs, and
development activities that Tenant has engaged in or intends to engage in with respect to the Leased Property and its surroundings; (c) periodically (at least quarterly) consult with Landlord and REOC Parent in advance with respect to any right
retained under this Lease and 

  
 - 40 -









 
with respect to Tenant’s operation and management of the Leased Property, as appropriate, and the performance of Tenant’s duties under this Lease including, without limitation, with
respect to matters relating to renovations, alterations, general maintenance, repairs, and development activities with respect to the Leased Property and its surroundings; and (d) to provide Landlord and REOC Parent with such other rights as
may reasonably be determined by Landlord to be necessary to enable REOC Parent to qualify as a REOC; provided, that such additional rights do not materially adversely affect (A) Tenant’s ability to perform its duties under this Lease or
the economic benefits enjoyed by Tenant under this Lease or (B) the status of ESH Hospitality as a real estate investment trust under the Code. Tenant agrees to consider, in good faith, the recommendations of Landlord in connection with the
matters on which it is consulted as described above. 
 Article 19 

LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE 

If a Mezzanine Lender shall have completed foreclosure upon all of the equity collateral for its Mezzanine Loan so that such Mezzanine Lender
shall control, directly or indirectly, Landlord and Tenant, and if all of the Loans senior to such Mezzanine Loan have been paid in full (including, for this purpose, the Mezzanine Loan senior to such foreclosed Mezzanine Loan, if any), then
Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving to Tenant notice thereof, and if Landlord gives to Tenant such notice, then this Lease and the term and estate granted hereby shall terminate as of the date on which Landlord so gives
to Tenant such notice, and all Rent shall be prorated and paid as of such termination date. 
 Article 20 

LIMITATIONS 
 20.1 REIT
Compliance. Landlord is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ESH Hospitality. Tenant acknowledges that ESH Hospitality intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Code. Tenant agrees that it will not knowingly or
intentionally take or omit to take any action, or permit any status or condition to exist at the Leased Property, which Tenant actually knows (acting in good faith) would or could result in (a) the Rent payable under this Lease not qualifying
as “rents from real property” as defined in Section 856(d) of the Code or (b) ESH Hospitality being disqualified from treatment as a real estate investment trust under the Code as the provisions exist on the date hereof;
provided, that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) Tenant shall not be responsible for any act or omission of Landlord or the Management Parties (unless the Management Parties’ action was with the express written consent,
or at the direction, of Tenant), and (B) any action by Tenant taken in compliance with the express terms of this Lease or the Management Agreement shall not be deemed to create a Default or Event of Default under this Section 20.1. Tenant
shall jointly elect with ESH Hospitality that Tenant shall be treated as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” under Section 856(l)(1)(B) of the Code. 

20.2 Sublease Rent Limitation. Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, from and after the Commencement Date,
Tenant shall not knowingly or intentionally (acting in good faith) enter into any sublease with respect to the Leased Property or any part thereof on any basis such that the rental to be paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based (or considered
to be based), in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits derived by the business activities of the sublessee, or (b) any other formula such that any portion of the 

  
 - 41 - 








 
rent payable hereunder would or could, to Tenant’s actual knowledge (acting in good faith), fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d)
of the Code, or any similar or successor provisions thereto. 
 Article 21 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 21.1 No
Waiver. No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power, or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the
continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, which shall continue in full force and effect with
respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach. 
 21.2 Remedies Cumulative. To the maximum extent permitted, by law, each
legal, equitable, or contractual right, power, and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Lease or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, and
remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers, and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other
rights, powers, and remedies. 
 21.3 Severability. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section, or provision of this Lease held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate, or nullify the remainder of this Lease, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section, or provision so
held to be invalid, illegal, or ineffective, and this Lease shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or ineffective provisions had never been contained herein. 

21.4 Acceptance of Surrender. No surrender to Landlord of this Lease or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest
therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such
surrender. 
 21.5 No Merger of Title. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall
be no merger of this Lease or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own, or hold, directly or indirectly, this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground
landlord’s interest in the Leased Property. 
 21.6 Conveyance by Landlord. If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any
portion of the Leased Property shall convey all or any portion of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms of this Lease other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Leased Property shall expressly assume
all obligations of Landlord hereunder with respect to such of the Leased Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, then Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from
all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Lease with respect to such of the Leased Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall
thereupon be binding upon the new owner. 

  
 - 42 - 








 21.7 Quiet Enjoyment. Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold, and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through, or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any encumbrance permitted
to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings; provided, that the same do not
materially interfere with Tenant’s or the Management Parties’ ability to operate the Hotels, and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, no failure by Landlord to comply
with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant the right to cancel or terminate this Lease or abate, reduce, or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Lease ,or to fail to perform any other obligation of
Tenant hereunder. 
 21.8 Registration. Neither Tenant nor anyone on Tenant’s behalf or claiming under Tenant shall register
this Lease or any assignment or sublease against the Leased Property. Tenant may register a notice or caveat of this Lease provided that: (a) a copy of the Lease is not attached; (b) no financial terms are disclosed; (c) Landlord
gives its prior written approval to the notice or caveat; and (d) Tenant pays Landlord’s reasonable costs on account of the matter. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall promptly discharge or otherwise vacate
any such notice or caveat. 
 21.9 True Lease. The parties hereto intend that this Lease shall be treated as a true lease for federal
tax purposes. 
 21.10 Notices. (a) Any and all notices, demands, consents, approvals, offers, elections, and other
communications required or permitted under this Lease shall be deemed adequately given if in writing and the same shall be delivered either in hand, or by mail, or Federal Express or similar expedited commercial carrier, addressed to the recipient
of the notice, postpaid, and registered or certified with return receipt requested (if by mail), or with all freight charges prepaid (if by Federal Express or similar carrier). 

(b) All notices required or permitted to be sent hereunder shall be deemed to have been given for all purposes of this Lease upon the date of
receipt or refusal, except that whenever under this Lease a notice is either received on a day which is not a Business Day or is required to be delivered on or before a specific day which is not a Business Day, the day of receipt or required
delivery shall automatically be extended to the next Business Day.

and at any time during the term of this Lease to change their respective addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such notice and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of
America or Canada. Landlord and Tenant shall deliver a copy of each notice sent to the other party to Lender at an address provided by Lender to Landlord and Tenant. 

21.11 Construction; Nonrecourse. Neither this Lease nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated except
by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties thereto. All the terms and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Each term or
provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant shall be construed as an independent covenant and condition. Time is of the essence with respect to the exercise of any rights of Tenant or Landlord under this Lease. In the event of any dispute
between the parties concerning this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to an award of attorney’s fees and costs in connection with such dispute, including, without limitation, in connection with any suit, action, arbitration, or other proceeding
concerning such dispute. Except as otherwise set forth in this Lease, any obligations arising prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease of Tenant (including, without limitation, any monetary, repair, and indemnification
obligations) and Landlord shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease; provided, that each of Landlord and Tenant shall be required to give the other Notice of any such surviving and unsatisfied obligations within one year after
the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed to create or impose any liabilities or obligations and no such liabilities or obligations shall be imposed on any of the shareholders, beneficial
owners, direct or indirect, officers, directors, trustees, employees, or agents of Landlord or Tenant for the payment or performance of the obligations or liabilities of Landlord or Tenant hereunder. Further, in the event Landlord shall be in
default under this Lease, and if as a consequence of such default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, then such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment against the
right, title, and interest of Landlord in the Leased Property. 
 21.12 Counterparts; Headings. This Lease may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument and shall become effective as of the date hereof when copies hereof, which, when taken together, bear the signatures
of each of the parties hereto shall have been signed. Headings in this Lease are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or affect the meaning of the provisions hereof. 

21.13 Applicable Law. This Lease shall be interpreted, construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York; provided, that the provisions for 

  
 - 45 - 








 
the enforcement of Landlord’s rights and remedies hereunder shall be governed by the laws of each of the respective jurisdictions where the Leased Property is located to the extent necessary
for the validity and enforcement thereof. 
 21.14 Right to Make Agreement. Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither
the execution of this Lease, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby, shall violate any provision of any law, or any judgment, writ, injunction, order, or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over it;
nor result in or constitute a breach or default under any indenture, contract, or other commitment or restriction to which it is a party or by which it is bound; nor require any consent, vote, or approval which has not been given or taken, or at the
time of the transaction involved shall not have been given or taken. Each party covenants that it has and will continue to have, throughout the term of this Lease and any extensions thereof, the full right to enter into this Lease and perform its
obligations hereunder. 
 21.15 Disclosure of Information. (a) The parties hereto agree that the matters set forth in this Lease
and any revenue, expense, net profit, room rate, and occupancy information provided on a Hotel by Hotel basis are strictly confidential and each party will make every effort to ensure that the information is not disclosed to any Person that is not
an Affiliate of any party (including the press) without the prior written consent of the other party, except as may be required by law and as may be reasonably necessary to obtain licenses, permits, and other public approvals necessary for the
refurbishment or operation of the Hotels, or, in connection with a Landlord financing, a sale of a Hotel, or a sale of a Controlling Interest in Landlord or Tenant. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing provisions of this Section 21.15 or elsewhere in this Lease, any party (and
any employee, representative, or other agent of any party) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Lease and all materials of any kind
(including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided, that any such information and materials shall be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any
applicable securities laws. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Lease shall not be deemed to include the identity of the parties, the location of the Leased Property,
or the amount of Rent payable by Tenant hereunder. The foregoing authorization of disclosure is retroactively effective immediately upon commencement of the first discussions among the parties regarding the transactions contemplated hereby, and the
parties aver and affirm that this tax disclosure authorization has been given on a date which is no later than 30 days from the first day that any party (or any employee, representative, or other agent of a party) first made or provided a statement
as to the potential federal income tax consequences that may result from the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 (c) The obligations of
Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 21.15 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
 21.16
Operating Lease. The parties hereto intend that this Lease shall be deemed for all purposes to be an operating lease and not a capital lease.

 21.18 Tax Allocation. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the Minimum Rent and
Percentage Rent allocated for tax purposes each taxable year shall equal the cash amounts of Minimum Rent and Percentage Rent paid during such year. 

21.19 Planning Act (Ontario). It is an express condition of this Lease that the subdivision control provisions of the applicable
provincial legislation be complied with, if necessary. If such compliance is necessary, then Tenant covenants and agrees to proceed diligently, at Tenant’s expense, to obtain the required consent and Landlord agrees to cooperate, at
Tenant’s expense, with Tenant in bringing such application. 
 21.20 Distress. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease or
any provision of any applicable legislation, none of the goods and chattels of Tenant on the Leased Property at any time during the Term shall be exempt from levy by distress for Rent in arrears, and Tenant waives any such exemption. If Landlord
makes any claim against the goods and chattels of Tenant by way of distress, this provision may be pleaded as an estoppel against Tenant in any action brought to test the right of Landlord to levy such distress. 

21.21 Beneficial Owner Ratification. Beneficial Owner ratifies and confirms that it has irrevocably authorized and directed Landlord to
execute and deliver this Lease and that such authorization and direction shall constitute Beneficial Owner’s giving of full and sufficient authority to Landlord for Landlord to execute and deliver this Lease. Landlord and Beneficial Owner
acknowledge that Tenant is relying on such authorization and direction and that Tenant shall not be obliged to look further into the terms of the trust between Landlord and Beneficial Owner.
