(a)Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended by restating the following definitions in their entirety to read as follows:

“Permitted Variations Period” means the period commencing with the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022) and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which the Borrower delivers a compliance certificate in accordance with Section 5.01(d) demonstrating compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.12 (as modified as of the Amendment Effective Date) for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023 and (ii) the date the Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, deliver both (a) a compliance certificate in accordance with Section 5.01(d) with respect to any fiscal quarter ending after the Covenant Waiver Period but prior to March 31, 2023 reflecting compliance with the financial covenants without giving effect to the Permitted Variations and (b) written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent electing to terminate 
2












the Permitted Variations Period concurrently with the delivery of such compliance certificate.”
(b)Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended by inserting the following new definitions in the appropriate order:
““Additional Senior Secured Notes” means any senior secured notes offered and issued by the Borrower that (x) constitute “Permitted Capital Markets Indebtedness” and (y) are in addition to the $300,000,000 of 6.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 issued pursuant to the indenture dated August 18, 2020.
“Allocated Amount” has the meaning assigned to it in Section 2.11(c).
“Third Amendment Effective Date” means the effective date of Amendment No. 3 to Term Loan Agreement, dated as of October 14, 2020, by and among the Borrower, the other Loan Parties party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party thereto.”
(c)Section 2.11(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to replace each reference therein to “Applicable Percentage” with “Allocated Amount”.
(d)Section 2.11(c) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(c)    Notice; Manner of Payment. Upon the occurrence of any Mandatory Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall promptly deliver notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders after the Amendment Effective Date, “Allocated Amount” shall mean the amount that is required to be applied to a prepayment of the Loans as set forth below in this subsection (c) with respect to the specified Mandatory Prepayment Event.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders after the Amendment Effective Date, the Net Cash Proceeds of any Mandatory Prepayment Event shall be applied to the prepayment of the loans under the Credit Facilities as follows:
(a)    if the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement or any substantially similar term defined in any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) immediately prior to the application of such Net Cash Proceeds on the applicable Net Cash Proceeds Receipt Date is equal to or less than $350,000,000, (i) until the loans (if any) under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement and the KeyBank 2015 Credit Agreement have been repaid in full on the Third Amendment Effective Date, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to the loans outstanding under the Wells Fargo Credit 
3












Agreement and the KeyBank 2015 Credit Agreement, on a pro rata basis, and (ii) thereafter, 50% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of any revolving credit loans under the JPM Credit Agreement (without any corresponding reduction of the commitments thereunder, and without any requirement to apply any amount to the Loans or the loans outstanding under each of the other Credit Facilities) until the outstanding amount of such revolving credit loans is reduced to zero, with any remaining portion of such Net Cash Proceeds being retained by the Borrower; and 
(b)    if the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement or any substantially similar term defined in any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) immediately prior to the application of such Net Cash Proceeds on the applicable Net Cash Proceeds Receipt Date is greater than $350,000,000, (i) until the loans (if any) outstanding under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement and the KeyBank 2015 Credit Agreement have been repaid in full on the Third Amendment Effective Date, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to the loans outstanding under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement and the KeyBank 2015 Credit Agreement, on a pro rata basis, and (ii) thereafter, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on a pro rata basis to Loans and the loans outstanding under each of the other Credit Facilities (without a corresponding permanent reduction of the commitments under the JPM Credit Agreement);
provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received from the incurrence of all Indebtedness secured by a Lien on any Unencumbered Property after the Amendment Effective Date exceeds $250,000,000 (such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $250,000,000, the “Excess Lien Proceeds”) or (ii) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received from all Asset Dispositions after the Amendment Effective Date exceeds $500,000,000 (such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $500,000,000, the “Excess Sale Proceeds”), then, in each case, 100% of such Excess Lien Proceeds and Excess Sale Proceeds shall be applied first only to the prepayment of the Loans and the term loans outstanding under the other Credit Facilities (and not to revolving credit loans under the JPM Credit Agreement) on a pro rata basis until such term loans are paid in full and thereafter to the prepayment of any revolving credit loans under the JPM Credit Agreement (without any corresponding reduction of the commitments thereunder).
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower may apply a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds otherwise required to make prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(iii) to repay a ratable portion of Permitted Capital Markets Indebtedness that is secured by liens on a pari passu basis with the Obligations in respect of which a prepayment (or offer of prepayment) is required to be made with such Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to the terms of such Permitted Capital Markets Indebtedness (determined on the basis of 
4












the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans, the outstanding loans under the other Credit Facilities and the outstanding Permitted Capital Markets Indebtedness at such time).
Each prepayment shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.16.”
(e)Section 6.12(a) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(a)    Leverage Ratio.  The ratio of Total Indebtedness as of such date to Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four (4) consecutive quarters then ended (subject to Section 6.12(h)) (the “Leverage Ratio”), commencing with the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022) to exceed 6.0 to 1.0; provided that the Leverage Ratio may exceed 6.0 to 1.0 during the Permitted Variations Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023), so long as the Leverage Ratio does not exceed (i) 8.50 to 1.00 as at the end of the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022) and the next fiscal quarter thereafter, (ii) 8.00 to 1.00 as at the end of each of the subsequent two fiscal quarters thereafter, (iii) 7.50 to 1.00 as at the end of the subsequent fiscal quarter thereafter (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023) (each of the foregoing clauses (i) – (iii), a “Permitted Leverage Variation”); provided further that (x) the Leverage Ratio may exceed 6.0 to 1.0 following a Major Acquisition so long as (A) the Leverage Ratio does not exceed 6.0 to 1.0 as of the end of more than two (2) consecutive fiscal quarters following such Major Acquisition and (B) the Leverage Ratio does not exceed 6.5 to 1.0 as of any such date of determination and (y) for purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio, not more than 25% of the aggregate Consolidated EBITDA may be attributable to assets consisting of investments in Investment Affiliates, income-producing Real Estate Assets other than hotels or similar hospitality properties, Development Properties, Unimproved Land, Real Estate Assets undergoing Major Renovations, and Mortgage Notes receivable.”
(f)Section 6.12(d) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(d)    Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.  Commencing with the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022), for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower then ended (subject to Section 6.12(h)), the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA for such period to Consolidated Fixed Charges for such period to be less than 1.50 to 1.0.”
5












(g)Section 6.12(f) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(f)    Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio.  Commencing with the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022), the ratio of Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Company then ended to Unsecured Interest Expense for such period (subject to Section 6.12(h)) to be less than 2.0 to 1.0; provided that such ratio may be less than 2.0 to 1.0 during the Permitted Variations Period, so long as such ratio is not less than 1.60 to 1.0 (the “Permitted Unsecured Interest Coverage Variation” and, together with the Permitted Leverage Variation, the “Permitted Variations”).”
(h)Section 6.12(h) of the Credit Agreement is restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(h)    Annualized Calculations.  For the period commencing with the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022) and the next two fiscal quarters thereafter, for the purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio described in the foregoing clauses (a), (d), and (f), “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” shall be determined on an annualized basis as follows:
(i)    For the final fiscal quarter occurring during the Covenant Waiver Period (which shall in no event be later than the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2022), “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” shall be calculated using the one (1) fiscal quarter then ended multiplied by four (4);
(ii)    For the next fiscal quarter thereafter, “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” shall be calculated using the two (2) fiscal quarters then ended multiplied by two (2);
(iii)    For the next fiscal quarter thereafter, “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” shall be calculated using the three (3) fiscal quarters then ended multiplied by four-thirds (4/3); and
(iv)    Thereafter, “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” shall be calculated using the four (4) fiscal quarters then ended.  
6












Notwithstanding that the Borrower shall make such calculations on an annualized basis for purposes of determining compliance with such financial covenants, the Borrower shall also provide calculations of such financial covenants using “Consolidated EBITDA” and “Unencumbered Adjusted Net Operating Income” for the four (4) fiscal quarters then ended in its compliance certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(d).”
