after the date of Buyer’s Title Commitment or Survey, as applicable, but prior to Closing, then Buyer may elect, in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion: (i) to waive such objection and proceed to Closing, or (ii) to terminate
this Contract and receive a return of the Earnest Money Deposit, and any interest thereon. The items shown on the Title Commitment which are not objected to by Buyer as set

AGREEMENT

and assumption and subject to such amendments thereto as may be required or otherwise agreed to by Buyer (including, without limitation, such amendments as may be required to accommodate Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s Affiliates’ REIT
structure). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at Buyer’s option, in lieu of Seller’s assigning to Buyer Seller’s interest in the Franchise Agreement, Buyer and the Franchisor may enter into a new franchise agreement, effective as of the
Closing Date, replacing the existing Franchise Agreement and containing terms and conditions acceptable to Buyer. In such case, Seller and the Franchisor shall terminate the existing Franchise Agreement, as of the Closing Date, and Seller shall be
solely responsible for all claims and liabilities arising thereunder. Buyer agrees to apply for and use reasonable efforts, and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer, to obtain the Franchisor’s written consent to the assignment to Buyer of the
Franchise Agreement (or to a new franchise agreement, as the case may be), together with the assignment to Buyer of all waivers of any brand standard necessary or appropriate for the operation of the Hotel under the Brand. It shall be a condition to
Closing for Buyer and Seller that the Franchisor provide the foregoing consent; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be entitled, as a condition to Closing, to require amendments to the Franchise Agreement (or to require a new franchise
agreement) that contains economic terms more favorable to the owner or franchisee than the economic terms of the existing Franchise Agreement or that differ in any other material respect from the form of franchise agreement which Buyer and
Franchisor have negotiated previously as their standard form of franchise agreement (to the extent such standard forms are applicable under the circumstances). Seller and Buyer shall each be responsible for paying for one half of all costs (other
than Buyer’s attorney’s fees and extraordinary costs resulting from Buyer’s and/or Buyer’s Affiliates’ REIT structure, which shall be paid by Buyer) related to the assignment and amendment of the Franchise Agreement (or to
the termination of the Franchise Agreement and the execution of a new franchise agreement), including but not limited to, the payment of license, application, transfer and similar fees thereunder, provided that Seller shall pay all costs and fees of
its attorneys and consultants and all costs associated with any releases or other provisions requested by or for the benefit of Seller, in each case, incurred in connection with such assignment and/or termination and execution of any new franchise
agreement. Seller shall use best efforts to promptly provide all information required by the Franchisor in connection with each such assignment and amendment (or in connection with a new franchise agreement), and Seller and Buyer shall diligently
pursue obtaining each the same.

unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay. 
 (ii) If in any action, suit
or proceeding (a “Legal Action”) the relief sought is solely the payment of money damages, and if the Indemnifying Party specifically agrees in writing to indemnify such Indemnified Party with respect thereto and demonstrates to the
reasonable satisfaction of such Indemnified Party its financial ability to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, commencing thirty (30) days after such notice, at its option, to elect to settle, compromise or defend, pursuant to
this paragraph, by its own counsel and at its own expense, any such Legal Action involving such Indemnified Party’s asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to settle, compromise or defend any such Legal Action, such
settlement, compromise or defense shall be conducted in the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, but such Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information concerning such settlement, compromise or defense as the
Indemnifying Party may reasonably request from time to time. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to settle, compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall notify such Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so within thirty
(30) days of notice from such Indemnified Party provided above. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous
subsection of this Contract, until the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Legal Action, the 

  

 19 








 
defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. Furthermore, (x) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be
defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (y) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or (z) if a judgment
against Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, in the Legal Action will, in the good faith opinion of Buyer, establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interest of the continuing business of the Hotel, the Indemnifying Party, shall
not be entitled to assume the defense of the Legal Action and the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party, provided that, in the case of clause (z), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to approve legal counsel selected by the
Indemnified Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If the defense of the Legal Action is handled by the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this subsection, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all legal and
other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in conducting such defense. 
 (iv) In any Legal Action initiated
by a third party and defended by the Indemnified Party (w) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party
fully informed as to the status of such Legal Action at all stages thereof, whether or not the Indemnified Party is represented by its own counsel, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party and its attorneys,
accounts and other representatives, all books and records of Seller relating to such Legal Action and (z) the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of
such Legal Action. 
 (v) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnifying Party shall not make settlement of any claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be deemed unreasonable
to withhold consent to a settlement involving injunctive or other equitable relief against Buyer or its respective assets, employees, Affiliates or business, or relief which Buyer reasonably believes could establish a custom or precedent which will
be adverse to the best interests of its continuing business. 
 8.14 Section 1031-Exchange. Seller and Buyer may elect to effect
a tax-deferred exchange transaction satisfying the requirements of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Seller and Buyer each agree to reasonably cooperate with each other in facilitating Seller’s or Buyer’s, as the
case may be, satisfaction of the requirements for such tax-deferred exchange; provided, however, (i) in no event shall the cooperating party incur any liability in connection with the other’s tax-deferred exchange; (ii) although
Seller or Buyer may assign this Contract to a qualified intermediary in connection with the tax-deferred exchange, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall not be released or relieved of its obligation to perform in accordance with the terms of
this Contract; (iii) the cooperating party shall not be required to incur any additional cost or expense including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, in connection with or attributable to the tax-deferred exchange, it being understood
and agreed that the cooperating party shall be indemnified and held harmless by the exchanging party from and against any and all of such additional costs and expenses and (iv) no delay in Closing shall result from Seller’s or Buyer’s
tax-deferred exchange. 
  

 20 








 8.15 Liquor Licenses. As a condition to Buyer’s obligations under this Contract, (i) the
Manager or an Affiliate thereof approved by Buyer shall have or shall have obtained all liquor licenses and alcoholic beverage licenses necessary or desirable to operate any restaurants, bars and lounges to be located within the Hotel (collectively,
the “Liquor Licenses”) and, in the case of an Affiliate of the Manager, the Hotel shall have the right to use such Liquor Licenses, (ii) if permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Hotel is located, the Manager shall
execute and file any and all necessary forms, applications and other documents (and Seller shall cooperate with the Manager in filing such forms, applications and other documents) with the appropriate liquor and alcoholic beverage authorities prior
to Closing so that the Liquor Licenses remain in full force and effect upon completion of Closing. 
 8.16 Manager. Inasmuch as the
Manager is an Affiliate of Seller, Seller shall cause the Manager to enter into the Management Agreement at the Closing and to comply with any other provisions of this Contract relating to the Manager.

shall be made as of the Effective Time, as set forth below. All of such adjustments and allocations shall be made in cash at Closing and shall be collected through and/or adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement. Except as

which the Closing occurs (including the period prior to Closing, regardless of when due and payable) shall be prorated as of the Effective Time and, if no tax bills or assessment statements for such calendar year are available, such amounts shall be

 25 








 (b) Utilities. All suppliers of utilities shall be instructed to read meters or otherwise
determine the charges owing as of the Effective Time for services prior thereto, which charges shall be allocated to Seller. Charges accruing after Effective Time shall be allocated to Buyer. If elected by Seller, Seller shall be given credit, and

 ARTICLE XIII 
 CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION 
 13.1 Risk of Loss; Notice. Prior to Closing and the delivery of possession of the
Property to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, all risk of loss to the Property (whether by casualty, condemnation or otherwise) shall be borne by Seller. In the event that (a) any loss or damage to the Hotel shall occur prior to the
Closing Date as a result of fire or other casualty, or (b) Seller receives notice that a governmental authority has initiated or threatened to initiate a condemnation proceeding affecting the Hotel, Seller shall give Buyer immediate written
notice of such loss, damage or condemnation proceeding (which notice shall include a certification of (i) the amounts of insurance coverages in effect with respect to the loss or damage and (ii) if known, the amount of the award to be
received in such condemnation). 
 13.2 Buyer’s Termination Right. If, prior to Closing and the delivery of possession of the
Property to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, (a) any condemnation proceeding shall be pending against a substantial portion of the Hotel or (b) there is any substantial casualty loss or damage to the Hotel, Buyer shall have the
option to terminate this Contract, provided Buyer delivers written notice to Seller of its election within twenty (20) days after the date Seller has delivered Buyer written notice of any such loss, damage or condemnation as provided above, and
in such event, the Earnest Money Deposit, and any interest thereon, shall be delivered to Buyer and thereafter, except as expressly set forth herein, no party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other under this Contract. In the
context of condemnation, “substantial” shall mean condemnation of such portion of the Hotel (or access thereto) as could, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment, render use of the remainder impractical or unfeasible for the uses herein
contemplated, and, in the context of casualty loss or damage, “substantial” shall mean a loss or damage in excess of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) in value. 
 13.3 Procedure for Closing. If Buyer shall not timely elect to terminate this Contract under Section 13.2 above, or if the loss, damage or
condemnation is not substantial, Seller agrees to pay to Buyer at the Closing all insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which Seller has received as a result of the same, plus an amount equal to the insurance deductible, and assign to Buyer all
insurance proceeds and condemnation awards payable as a result of the same, in which event the Closing shall occur without Seller replacing or repairing such damage. In the case of damage or casualty, at Buyer’s election, Seller shall repair
and restore the Property to its condition immediately prior to such damage or casualty and shall assign to Buyer all excess insurance proceeds. 
  

 27 








 ARTICLE XIV 
 DEFAULT REMEDIES 
 14.1 Buyer Default. If Buyer defaults under this Contract after the Review
Period, and such default continues for ten (10) days following written notice from Seller, then at Seller’s election by written notice to Buyer and as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedies on account of such default, either
(i) this Contract shall be terminated and of no effect, in which event the Earnest Money Deposit, including any interest thereon, shall be paid to and retained by the Seller as Seller’s as liquidated damages for Buyer’s default or
failure to close, and both Buyer and Seller shall thereupon be released from all obligations hereunder or (ii) Seller may treat this Contract as being in full force and effect and seek to specifically enforce Buyer’s obligation to purchase
the Property pursuant to the terms of this Contract. 
 14.2 Seller Default. If Seller defaults under this Contract, and such default
continues for ten (10) days following written notice from Buyer, Buyer may elect, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Contract by written notice to Seller delivered to Seller at any time prior to the
completion of such cure, in which event the Earnest Money Deposit, including any interest thereon, shall be returned to the Buyer, and thereafter both the Buyer and Seller shall thereupon be released from all obligations with respect to this
Contract, except as otherwise expressly provided herein; or (ii) to treat this Contract as being in full force and effect by written notice to Seller delivered to Seller at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the Buyer
shall have the right to an action against Seller for damages (excluding consequential damages based upon allegations that default by Seller under this Agreement negatively affected the purchase price under any other contracts pursuant to which Buyer
purchased property from Affiliates of Seller), specific performance and all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. 
 14.3
Attorney’s Fees. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, if it shall be necessary for either the Buyer or Seller to employ an attorney to enforce its rights pursuant to this Contract because of the default of the other party,
and the non-defaulting party is successful in enforcing such rights, then the defaulting party shall reimburse the non-defaulting party for the non-defaulting party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses.

Seller or Buyer or would constitute a substantial deviation from the general intent of the parties as reflected in this Contract.

 ARTICLE XVII 
 JOINDER BY WESTERN 
 Western joins in
this Contract and hereby covenants and agrees that 
 (i) Western is and shall be jointly and severally liable with Seller for
the performance of all of Seller’s obligations and liabilities under this Contract, including, without limitation, all of Seller’s obligations and liabilities that survive Closing, and Western shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer
harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, damages and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from a default by the Contractor with respect to, or a failure by Contractor to perform or comply with, the
Construction Warranty, provided that (x) Western’s liability under this clause (i) shall not exceed One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) and any costs of collection and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and
(y) Western’s liability under this clause (i) shall terminate on the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date except as to claims asserted in writing within such one-year period; 
 (ii) In addition to, and not in limitation of Western’s obligations under clause (i) of this Article XVII (and without the
limitation of liability contained in the proviso of such clause (i)), Western shall indemnify and defend Buyer and its Affiliates and hold Buyer and its Affiliates harmless from and against all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages
arising or resulting from any of the following: 
  

	 	(1)	Misapplication by Seller or Western, or any person or entity that controls or is controlled by Seller or Western (collectively, “Seller Entities”), of proceeds of
insurance, condemnation awards, Hotel rents, revenues and receipts and/or prepaid rentals and/or other deposits paid or payable in respect of any period prior to Closing; 

  

 31 









	 	(2)	Failure by any Seller Entity to pay taxes or other amounts payable in respect of any period prior to Closing that could result in a lien, security interest or other encumbrance
(other than Permitted Exceptions) on the Property; or 

  

	 	(3)	Fraud or material misrepresentation by Seller or Western including, without limitation, in the representations of Seller and Western contained in Section 7.1;


 (iii) Western’s obligations hereunder shall not be limited, diminished or impaired in any way by virtue
of any right or remedy Buyer may have against Seller under this Contract or by virtue of any other provision of this Contract; 
 (iv) Buyer shall not be obligated to proceed first against Seller before resorting to Western under this Article XVII for payment or performance; and 
 (v) Western shall not be entitled to assert as a defense to the enforceability of its covenants and agreements hereunder any defense of
Seller with respect to any liabilities or obligations of Seller to Buyer. 
 Indemnification claims and procedures with respect to
Western’s indemnification obligations under clause (ii) of this Article XVII shall be consistent with those provided for in Section 8.13(c) of this Contract. Seller shall cause Western to provide, and Western shall provide, at Closing
an indemnification agreement in form and substance satisfactory in form and substance to Buyer with respect to the foregoing indemnifications (the “Western Indemnification Agreement”), which shall be a condition to Buyer’s obligation
to close under this Contract. The covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of Western set forth in this Article XVII shall be continuing, and shall not be deemed to merge into or be waived by the Deed or other closing documents and
shall survive Closing on the Property.
