Manager shall be entitled to continue to operate the Hotel in accordance with
the standards set forth herein and shall be entitled to make expenditures which

Year; provided that, subject to the standards of performance described in

bought down to $25,000 at the expense of Lessee.

         5.02     Policies and Endorsements.

<PAGE>

                  5.02.1 Policies. All insurance provided for under the above
Section 5.01 shall be effected by policies issued by insurance companies of good
reputation and of sound and adequate financial responsibility, and rated no less
than A-VIII in Best's Insurance Guide. The party procuring such insurance shall
deliver to the other party certificates of insurance with respect to all of the
policies of insurance so procured, including existing, additional and renewal
policies, and in the case of insurance about to expire, shall deliver
certificates of insurance with respect to the renewal policies to the other
party not more than thirty (30) days after the respective dates of expiration.
If Lessee shall elect to procure any portion of the property insurance, it shall
also deliver to Manager full copies of the policies under which such insurance
is maintained.

                  5.02.2 Endorsements. All policies of insurance provided for
under this Article V shall have attached thereto (a) an endorsement that such
policy shall not be canceled or materially changed without at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice to Lessee and Manager, and (b) an endorsement to the
effect that no act or omission of Lessee or Manager shall affect the obligation
of the insurer to pay the full amount of any loss sustained. All insurance
policies procured by Lessee shall contain an endorsement to the effect that such
insurance shall be primary to any similar insurance carried by Manager.

                  5.02.3 Named Insureds. All policies of insurance required
under clauses (a) through (d) of Subsection 5.01.1 shall be carried in the name
of Lessee, and, if required, Mortgagee and the lessor under the Ground Lease, if
any, and Manager shall be named as a loss payee as to business interruption
insurance. Losses thereunder shall be payable to the parties as their respective
interests may appear. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Mortgagee is an
institutional lender, and so requires, losses may be made payable to Mortgagee,
or to a bank or trust company qualified to do business in the state where the
Hotel is located, in either instance as trustee for the custody and disposition
of the proceeds therefrom. Lessee agrees to use reasonable efforts to attempt to
cause any mortgagee to agree that its mortgage shall contain a provision to the
effect that proceeds from property insurance shall be made available for
restoration of the Hotel. All insurance policies required in clauses (e), (f),
and (i) through (l) of Subsection 5.01.1, shall name Lessee and its Affiliates,
directors, officers, agents and employees of each such entity as named insureds,
and Manager, its Affiliates, directors, officers, agents and employees of each
such entity as additional insureds on a primary basis, irrespective of any other
coverage, whether collectable or not. Policies required in clauses (g), (h) and
(m) shall be written in the name of the employer.

         5.03 Waiver of Liability. Neither Manager nor Lessee shall assert
against the other, and do hereby waive with respect to each other, or against
any other entity or person named as additional insureds on any policies carried
under this Article V, any claims for any losses, damages, liability or expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred or sustained by either of them on account
of injury to persons or damage to property arising out of the ownership,
development, construction, completion, operation or maintenance of the Hotel, to
the extent that the same are covered by the insurance required under this
Article V. Each policy of insurance shall contain a specific waiver of
subrogation reflecting the provisions of this Section 5.03, and a provision to
the effect that the existence of the preceding waiver shall not affect the
validity of any such policy or the obligation of the insurer to pay the full
amount of any loss sustained.

         5.04 Insurance by Manager. Any insurance provided by Manager under this
Article V may, subject to Lessee's approval, be effected under policies of
blanket insurance which cover other properties of Manager and its Affiliates,
and Manager shall have the right to charge the Hotel with the Hotel's pro rata
share of such premiums shall be allocated to the Hotel on the same basis as

<PAGE>

allocated to participating Other Managed Hotels. Any policies of insurance
maintained by Manager pursuant to the provisions of this Article V may contain
deductible provisions in such amounts as are maintained with respect to Other
Managed Hotels, for which Lessee shall be responsible or which Manager, at
Lessee's expense, may pay.

discretion, handle directly, or through an Affiliate or one of the Other Managed
Hotels, any of the accounting functions for the Hotel, including without
limitation, accounts payable, general ledger, payroll and accounts receivable,
or any part thereof, on a centralized basis with one or more Other Managed
Hotels for the purpose of achieving a more cost-efficient operation of the
Hotel. Manager or its Affiliate or the Other Managed Hotel furnishing such
centralized accounting functions shall be entitled to be reimbursed or paid from
the Hotel Accounts for (i) the pro rata share of the costs and expenses of
providing such accounting functions allocated to the Hotel on the same basis as
allocated to participating Other Managed Hotels utilizing such centralized
accounting services, and (ii) such amounts required to cover or reimburse
Manager, its Affiliate or Other Managed Hotel for the payment of authorized

                   Operating Year, provided, however, Manager shall have the
                   right, but not the obligation, to cure such failure by within
                   sixty (60) days following the end of such Operating Year,
                   contributing to Gross Operating Profit for such Operating
                   Year an amount necessary to cause Gross Operating Profit to
                   equal at least ninety percent (90%) of the amount of Gross
                   Operating Profit set forth in the Operating Budget for such
                   Operating Year, in which event Lessee shall have no right to
                   terminate this Management Agreement with respect to the
                   Hotel; and (2) fails to maintain a Smith Travel Research
                   RevPar Share Index of at least 110% market share for the
                   Operating Year.

then Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written notice
to Manager given at any time following the occurrence of such event, or if a
period of grace is provided, then following the expiration of the applicable
grace period, and while such event shall be continuing, and this Agreement shall
terminate upon the date specified therein, which date shall be not less than

                   the provisions of Section 7.02 within ten (10) days after
                   Manager's request for such additional funds, and such failure
                   continues for an additional ten (10) day period after written
                   notice by Manager to Lessee that such funds have not yet been
                   received;

                           (b) Lessee shall fail to keep, observe or perform any
                   other material covenant, agreement, term or provision of this
                   Agreement to be kept, observed or performed by Lessee, and
                   such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days
                   after notice thereof by Manager to Lessee;

                           (c) [Intentionally Deleted.]

                           (d) Lessee shall apply for or consent to the

                   admitting the material allegations of a petition filed
                   against Lessee in any bankruptcy, reorganization or
                   insolvency proceeding, or if an order, judgment or decree
                   shall be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction, on
                   the application of a creditor, adjudicating Lessee a bankrupt
                   or insolvent or approving a petition seeking reorganization
                   of Lessee or appointing a receiver, trustee or liquidator of
                   Lessee or of all or a substantial part of the assets of
                   Lessee, and such order, judgment or decree shall continue
                   unstayed and in effect for any period of sixty (60)
                   consecutive days;

                           (e) if because of a default under the Ground Lease
                   (if any) or the Mortgage, the Ground Lease shall be
                   terminated or the Mortgage shall be foreclosed (or the Hotel
                   sold in lieu of foreclosure) or such steps shall be taken to
                   terminate the Ground Lease or foreclose on the Mortgage such
                   that Manager's ability to manage the Hotel shall be
                   materially adversely affected; or

                            (f) Lessee shall be in default under the License
                   Agreement and such default shall have continued after the
                   expiration of any applicable grace period with respect
                   thereto or the License Agreement shall have been terminated,

then Manager shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon written
notice to Lessee given at any time following the occurrence of any such event,
or if a period of grace is provided, then following the expiration of the
applicable period, and while such event shall be continuing, and this Agreement
shall terminate upon the date specified therein, which date shall be not less
than thirty (30) days nor more than seventy-five (75) days after the date of the

Section 8.01 or Lessee under clause (b) of Section 8.02, as the case may be,
which is susceptible of being cured, shall not constitute a basis of termination
if the nature of such default shall not permit it to be cured within the grace
period allotted, provided that within such grace period either Manager or Lessee
shall have commenced to cure such default and shall proceed to complete the same
with reasonable diligence.

         8.04 Effect of Termination. The termination of this Agreement under the
provisions of this Article VIII shall not affect the rights of the terminating
party with respect to any damages it has suffered as a result of any breach of
this Agreement, nor shall it affect the rights of either party with respect to
liability or claims accrued, or arising out of events occurring, prior to the
date of termination.

         8.05     Remedies.

                           (a) If this Agreement is terminated due to an event

                       shall be entitled to all damages incurred by Manager as a
                       result of such default, including damages resulting from
                       early termination of the Agreement, including but not

                       twelve (12) month period, multiplied by the lesser of
                       either (i)  thirty six (36), provided there are at least

                      (d) which remains uncured after any applicable cure
                      period, Lessee shall be entitled to all damages incurred
                      by Lessee as a result of such default, including damages
                      resulting from early termination of the Agreement, but
                      excluding punitive damages(c) Neither the right of
                      termination nor the right to sue for damages nor any other
                      remedy available to either party hereunder shall be
                      exclusive of any other remedy given hereunder or now or
                      hereafter existing at law or in equity.

         8.06     Intentionally Deleted.

         8.07 Preservation of Books and Records. In the event of the expiration
or earlier termination of this Agreement, Lessee shall preserve all books and
records, files and correspondence remaining at the Hotel in accordance with
Lessee's record retention guide then in effect after the expiration or
termination of this Agreement, and Lessee shall provide access to Manager, and
its representatives, to such books, records, correspondence and files at all
reasonable times.

         8.08 Extension Date of Termination. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision of this Agreement, the date of termination of this Agreement, other
than upon expiration pursuant to Article 2.01, shall be extended so that the
date of termination after notice of termination is given to or by Manager shall

days, if any, Manager is required to give its employees advance notice of
termination of employment as required by the Worker Adjustment and Retraining

Agreement shall operate to release Manager from any of its obligations under
this Agreement.

Lessee, shall have the right to assign this Agreement to any Affiliate of

                   month-to-month basis, and if Lessee (or the owner of the
                   Hotel) shall have received a bona fide written offer to

                   or lease the Hotel to any person, firm or corporation, Lessee
                   (or the owner of the Hotel) shall have the right to sell the
                   Hotel and terminate this Agreement, provided either (a)
                   Lessee pays to Manager a termination payment equal to the
                   average monthly amount of the total Management Fee, including
                   incentive fees paid or which would have been due or owed to
                   Manager for the Hotel during the immediately preceding twelve
                   (12) month period of the Term (or during the actual number of
                   months that have elapsed in the Term if such number of months
                   is less than twelve months), multiplied by the lesser of
                   either (i) Thirty Six (36), provided there are at least three
                   (3) years remaining under the Term, or (ii) the total number

                   replacement hotel or hotels that are commercially reasonably
                   acceptable to Manager, which replacement property shall be a
                   reasonable distance from other hotels that Manager manages
                   and have budgeted annual Gross Operating Revenues no less
                   than the actual annual Gross Operating Revenues of the
                   terminated Hotel (provided that, if Lessee elects to replace
                   pursuant to this clause (b), for any period in which a

<PAGE>

                   replacement management agreement is not yet in place Lessee
                   shall pay to Manager the fees which Manager would have
                   received for such period if the termination had not
                   occurred); or (c) Manager is engaged by the third party
                   purchaser to manage the Hotel, on terms acceptable to Manager
                   in its sole discretion, within sixty (60) days following such
                   termination.

                           (b) If the Term of this Agreement is on a
                  month-to-month basis, Lessee (or the owner of the Hotel) may
                  sell or otherwise transfer the Hotel, and terminate this
                  Agreement, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Manager.

                           (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee (or the
                  owner of the Hotel) may sell or otherwise transfer the Hotel

                  other encumbrance or security interest ("Mortgage") in the
                  Hotel or any part thereof from time to time.

9.04 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective
heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and with respect to
Lessee, the phrase "successors and assigns" shall include purchasers and
lessees, or sublessees, of Lessee's interest in the Premises.

                                    ARTICLE X

                             DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION;

                                 EMINENT DOMAIN

         10.01 Damage or Destruction. If the Hotel shall be substantially
damaged by fire or other casualty, or in the event that Mortgagee does not make
sufficient proceeds of insurance available to Lessee to permit Lessee to rebuild
and restore the Premises to a condition which permits the continued operation of
the Hotel by Manager as contemplated by this Agreement, then Lessee or Manager,
by written notice to the other party given within sixty (60) days after the
occurrence of such event, shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on
the basis that Lessee does not elect to rebuild or restore the Hotel, and
neither party shall have any further obligation to the other party hereunder,
except with respect to liability accruing, or based upon events occurring, prior
to the effective date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Lessee terminates this Agreement due to fire or casualty as provided above,
Lessee shall pay to Manager a termination fee equal to the average monthly
amount of the total Management Fee, including Incentive fees paid or which would
have been due or owed to Manager for the Hotel during the immediately preceding
twelve (12) month period, multiplied by the lesser of either (i) thirty six
(36), provided there are at least three (3) years remaining under the Term, or
(ii) the total number of months remaining under the Term if there is less than
three (3) years remaining under the Term. Manager shall not be entitled to any
such termination fee in the event Manager terminates as provided above. For the
purposes hereof, the Hotel shall be deemed to have been substantially damaged if

<PAGE>

the estimated length of time required to restore the Hotel substantially to its
condition and character just prior to the occurrence of such casualty shall be
in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days. If this Agreement shall not
terminate in the event of damage to the Hotel, either because (i) the damage
does not amount to substantial damage as described above, or (ii)
notwithstanding substantial damage to the Hotel, neither party has elected to
terminate this Agreement, Lessee shall elect to restore the Hotel, then Lessee
shall proceed with all due diligence to commence and complete the restoration of
the Hotel to its condition and character just prior to the occurrence of such
casualty, but only to the extent of insurance proceeds available to Lessee.

10.02 Eminent Domain. If all of the Premises, or such substantial portion
thereof as to make it infeasible, in the reasonable opinion of Lessee or
Manager, to restore and continue to operate the remaining portion for the
purposes contemplated hereby, shall be taken through the exercise, or by
agreement in lieu of the exercise, of the power of eminent domain, then
effective upon the date that Lessee shall be required to surrender possession of
the Premises, or a portion thereof, either party may terminate this Agreement
and neither party shall have any further obligation to the other party
hereunder, except with respect to liabilities accruing, or based upon events
occurring, prior to the effective date of such termination. In the event a
substantial portion of the Premises is taken, but Mortgagee fails or refuses to
make available to Lessee sufficient proceeds of such eminent domain proceedings
in order to permit Lessee to make appropriate alterations, restorations or
repairs to the remainder of the Premises, so that the Hotel would continue to be
operable for the purposes herein contemplated, then Lessee shall have the right
to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Manager and, upon the date
that Lessee shall be required to surrender possession of the Premises to the
condemning authority, this Agreement shall terminate and neither party shall
have any further obligation to the other party hereunder, except with respect to
liabilities accruing, or based upon events occurring, prior to the effective
date of such termination. Any election to terminate this Agreement must be made
within thirty (30) days of receipt of actual written notice from the condemning
authority setting out the details of the proposed taking. If such notice does
not provide the parties with sufficient detail so that a decision may be made
regarding termination, the parties may mutually agree to extend the above time
period in their discretion. In the event this Agreement is not terminated due to
eminent domain in this section 10.02, then Lessee shall proceed with all due
diligence to repair any damage to the Hotel, or to alter or modify the Hotel so
as to render it a complete architectural unit which can be operated as a hotel
of substantially the same type and class as before, but only to the extent of
condemnation proceeds available to Lessee. Lessee and/or its Lessor shall be
solely entitled to any Award, subject only to any exceptions set out below.
Manager may seek an award from the condemning authority for its loss of business
interest only, if such separate claim is permitted. In the event the condemning
authority does award Manager for such loss, Manager shall only be entitled to
retain that portion of its condemnation award which is necessary to compensate
Manager for its lost management fees, which shall be calculated in the same
manner as termination fees for Damage by Casualty, as set out above in Section
10.01. Manager shall promptly remit any additional amount to Lessee. In the
event any jurisdiction would permit both Manager and Lessee to seek an award for
their loss of business interests (respectively), this section shall not prohibit
Lessee from making a separate claim therefor. Lessee shall compensate Manager
for its lost management fees (calculated in the same manner as termination fees
for Damage by Casualty, as set out above in Section 10.01) only if Manager is
not permitted to seek an award directly from the condemning authority, and only
to the extent of any actual condemnation proceeds received by Lessee.

                            (ii) shall not own, directly or indirectly (within
                   the meaning of Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), more than 35%
                   of the shares of Equity Inns, Inc.;

                            (iii) shall be actively engaged in the trade or
                   business of operating "qualified lodging facilities" (defined
                   below) for persons who are not "related persons" within the
                   meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(F) of the Code with respect to
                   Equity Inns, Inc. or the Lessee ("Unrelated Persons"). In

                   from operating "qualified lodging facilities" for Unrelated
                   Persons and (ii) shall comply with any regulations or other
                   administrative guidance under Section 856(d)(9) of the Code
                   with respect to the amount of hotel management business with
                   Unrelated Persons that is necessary to qualify as an
                   "eligible independent contractor" within the meaning of such
                   Code section (so long as the Lessee has advised the Manager
                   in writing of such regulations or other administrative
                   guidance).

A "qualified lodging facility" is defined in Section 856(d)(9)(D) of the Code
and means a "lodging facility" (defined below), unless wagering activities are
conducted at or in connection with such facility by any person who is engaged in
the business of accepting wagers and who is legally authorized to engage in such
business at or in connection with such facility. A "lodging facility" is a
hotel, motel or other establishment more than one-half of the dwelling units in
which are used on a transient basis, and includes customary amenities and
facilities operated as part of, or associated with, the lodging facility so long
as such amenities and facilities are customary for other properties of a
comparable size and class owned by other owners unrelated to Equity Inns, Inc.

         11.01.2 Rents from Real Property. During the Term of this Agreement,
the Manager shall not sublet the Hotel or enter into any similar arrangement on
any basis such that the rental or other amounts to be paid by the sublessee
thereunder would be based, in whole in part, on either (i) the net income or
profits derived by the business activities of the sublessee or (ii) any other
formula such that any portion of the rent 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.

         11.01.3 Termination for Failure of Representations. In the event that
the foregoing representations become false, Lessee shall have the rights
afforded by Section 8.01 herein, and Manager shall have the benefit of any cure
period offered therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing and/or anything in Section
8.01 or elsewhere herein to the contrary, should the REIT status of Equity Inns,
Inc. and/or Equity Inns Trust be threatened because the foregoing
representations are false, then any cure period offered in Section 8.01 shall be
reduced in part or in full to the extent necessary to avoid any termination or
other material impact on the REIT status of Equity Inns, Inc. and/or Equity Inns
Trust whereupon Lessee may summarily terminate this Agreement upon written
notice to Manager, and subject to Lessee's existing loan documents.

         11.02  Representations of Lessee.  The Lessee covenants, represents and
warrants as follows:

     (a) The Lessee is the lessee of the Hotel and has full power and authority
to enter into this Agreement;

     (b) The Hotel is zoned for use as a hotel, motor hotel or resort, and all
necessary governmental and other permits and approvals for such use and for the
food and beverage (including the sale and service of liquor, if applicable)
operations of the Hotel have been obtained and are in full force and effect; and

     (c) Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Lessee will pay, keep,
observe and perform all payments, terms, covenants, conditions and obligations
under any lease or other concession, any deed of trust, mortgage or other
security agreement, and any real estate taxes or assessments covering or
affecting the Hotel, unless compliance with or payment thereof is, in good
faith, being contested and enforcement thereof is stayed.

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

         12.01 Purchases from Manager and Manager's Affiliates. In purchasing
goods, supplies, equipment and services for the Hotel, including, without
limitation, Operating Supplies, Operating Equipment, insurance and long distance
telephone services, Manager may utilize purchasing procurement services of
affiliates of Manager and/or other group buying techniques involving Other
Managed Hotels, as well as other hotels operated by Manager and its Affiliates,
provided that the cost thereof shall be competitive with that which would be
charged by non-affiliated third party vendors in an arms-length transaction. In
such event, such affiliates and/or Manager (as the case may be) may mark up
their costs or receive and retain a fee or other compensation from vendors and
service providers for their services in making the benefit of volume purchases
available to the Hotel or negotiating and implementing the arrangements with
such vendors or providers, provided that the total cost thereof (including such
mark-up, fee or other compensation charged or retained by Manager or its
affiliates) shall be competitive as aforesaid.

         12.02 Budgets. In preparing all budgets and Operating Budgets to be
submitted to Lessee hereunder, including, without limitation, the Capital
Renewals Budgets under Section 4.02, Manager shall base its estimates upon the
most recent and reliable information then available, taking into account the
location of the Hotel and its experience in other comparable hotels. Manager
reserves the right, and shall have the obligation, to update and revise any such
budgets and Operating Budgets from time to time during the periods covered
thereby to reflect variables and events not reasonably within the control of
Manager. All such updates and revisions of the Capital Renewals Budget and the
Operating Budgets (to the extent any such changes in the Operating Budgets
indicate shortfalls which would necessitate a need for additional working
capital to be provided by Lessee) shall be submitted, together with reasonable
explanations of the reasons for such charges, to Lessee for its approval. Lessee
agrees that it shall promptly reply to any such submissions giving its approval
or stating the grounds on which it is withholding its approval.

         12.03    Indemnities.

                  12.03.1 Indemnification to Manager. Lessee shall indemnify and
hold Manager harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims,
penalties, losses, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees,
based upon or arising out of Manager's performance of its services hereunder, or
out of any occurrence or event happening in or about the Hotel or occurring in
connection with the operation or development thereof, including any alleged
breach, or investigation relating to a possible breach, of any Legal Requirement
(collectively "Claims"), except to the extent such Claims are based upon
Manager's gross negligence, willful misconduct, breach of contract or failure to
act in good faith. and except to the extent such Claims are based upon Manager's
employment practices.

                  12.03.2 Indemnification To Lessee. Manager shall indemnify and
hold Lessee harmless from and against any and all Claims which Lessee may
suffer, sustain or incur arising from, or based upon Manager's gross negligence,
willful misconduct, breach of contract or failure to act in good faith.

                  12.03.3  Intentionally Deleted.

                  12.03.4 Indemnified Parties. The indemnities contained in this
Section 12.03 shall run to the benefit of both Manager and Lessee and their
respective Affiliates and the directors, partners, members, managers, officers
and employees of Manager and Lessee and their respective Affiliates.

                  12.03.5   Intentionally Deleted.

                  12.03.6 Survival. The provisions of Section 12.03 shall
survive any cancellation, termination or expiration of this Agreement and shall
remain in full force and effect until such time as the applicable statute of
limitation shall cut off all demands, claims, actions, damages, losses,
liabilities or expenses which are the subject of the provisions of this Section
12.03.

         12.04   Arbitration of Financial Matters.

                  12.04.01 Matters to be Submitted to Arbitration. In the case
of a dispute with respect to any of the following matters, either party may
submit such matter to arbitration which shall be conducted by the Accountants
(as hereinafter defined in Subsection 12.04.2):

                           (a) computation of the Management Fee;

                           (b) reimbursements due to Manager under the
provisions of Section 4.07;

                           (c) any adjustment in dollar amounts of insurance
coverages required to be maintained; and

                           (d) any dispute concerning the approval of a
Operating Budgets or a Capital Budget.

                  12.04.2 The Accountants. The "Accountants" shall be one of the
"Big Four" firms of certified public accountants of recognized national
standing, i.e., PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, KPMG Peat Marwick, and
Deloitte and Touche (or the successors thereto) notwithstanding any existing
relationships which may exist between Lessee and such accounting firms or
Manager and such accounting firms. The party desiring to submit any matter to
arbitration under Subsection 12.04.1 shall do so by written notice to the other
party, which notice shall set forth the items to be arbitrated and such party's
choice of one of the four (4) accounting firms. The party receiving such notice
shall within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice either approve such
choice, or designate one of the remaining firms by written notice back to the
first party, and the first party shall within fifteen (15) days after receipt of
such notice either approve such choice or disapprove the same, and the same
procedure shall be followed until the parties approve one of such firms or there
is only one remaining firm not designated by either party. If both parties shall
have approved one of the firms under the preceding sentence, then such firm
shall be the "Accountants" for the purposes of arbitrating the dispute; if the
parties are unable to agree on an accounting firm, then the remaining firm,
which was not designated by either party, shall be the "Accountants" for such
purpose. The Accountants shall be required to render a decision in accordance
with the procedures described in Subsection 12.04.3 within fifteen (15) days
after being notified of their selection. The fees and expenses of the
Accountants will be paid by the non-prevailing party.

                  12.04.3 Procedures. In all arbitration proceedings submitted
to the Accountants, the Accountants shall be required to agree upon and approve
the substantive position advocated by Lessee or Manager with respect to each
disputed item. Any decision rendered by the Accountants that does not reflect
the position advocated by Lessee or Manager shall be beyond the scope of
authority granted to the Accountants and, consequently, may be overturned by
either party. All proceedings by the Accountants shall be conducted in
accordance with the Uniform Arbitration Act, except to the extent the provisions
of such act are modified by this Agreement or the mutual agreement of the
parties. Unless otherwise agreed, all arbitration proceedings shall be conducted
at the Hotel.

<PAGE>

         12.05 Attorneys' Fees. In the event of any litigation arising out of
this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable costs and
expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

          12.06   Intentionally Omitted.

         12.07 No Restriction. Lessee agrees that Manager has and shall retain
the right to own, have an ownership interest in, develop, operate, manage,
license, franchise, sell or rent other hotels or inns of any kind, or shared
ownership projects commonly known as vacation ownership or time-share ownership
projects (or similar real estate projects), under the "Manager" or other name
and wherever located except on the Land under this Agreement, and nothing
contained in this Agreement shall prohibit or limit Manager from engaging in any
such activities, which shall not give rise to any liability for claims relating
to unfair competition and/or breach of the implied covenant of good faith and
fair dealing; provided that Manager shall not own, have an interest in develop,
operate, manage, license, or rent a hotel within the geographic radius of the
Competitive Set of the Hotel as listed in the Smith Travel Research Report as of
the date of this Agreement, except as is provided in the Right of First Refusal
in the Purchase and Sale Agreement for this Property or with Lessee's written
consent.

         12.08    Major Capital Improvements.

         12.08.1 Major Capital Improvements. Any program of capital
improvements, involving an addition to the Hotel, or designed to substantially
upgrade or change the nature or image of the Hotel (as opposed to a renovation
or refurbishing which takes place as part of the normal or cyclical upkeep of
the Hotel), shall be deemed to be a "Major Capital Improvement." Major Capital
Improvements will be undertaken only at the request of Lessee, whether on its
own initiative or at the suggestion of Manager, and in any event shall not be
included in the Capital Renewals Budgets.

                   12.08.2 Development. The development of any Major Capital
Improvement shall be the responsibility of Lessee and shall be paid for out of
separate funds of Lessee.

                   12.08.3 Prohibition on Casinos. In no event shall a casino be
added to the Premises or built as a separate structure on any portion of the
Land; nor shall any casino or gaming operations be conducted on the Premises.

         12.09 Force Majeure. If act of God, acts of war, acts of terrorism,
civil disturbance, labor strikes, governmental action, including the revocation
of any material license or permit necessary for the operation contemplated in
this Agreement where such revocation is not due to Manager's fault, or any other
causes beyond the control of Manager shall, in Manager's reasonable opinion,
have a significant adverse effect upon the operations of the Hotel, then Manager
shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days' written
notice from the date of such event; provided, however, such termination shall
not be effective if the event giving rise to the termination has been cured to
the reasonable satisfaction of Manager within such sixty (60) day period.

          12.10 Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications (herein
collectively called "Notices") required or permitted to be given hereunder, or
which are to be given with respect to this Agreement, shall be in writing sent
by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested,

         12.12 Modification and Changes. This Agreement cannot be changed or
modified except by another agreement in writing signed by the party sought to be

the understandings and agreements of whatsoever nature or kind existing between
the parties with respect to Manager's management of the Hotel. The parties each
hereby acknowledge, represent and agree that in entering into this Agreement,

party), in executing this Agreement except as expressly stated herein.

         12.14 Headings. The Article, Section and Subsection headings contained

limit or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this Agreement.

<PAGE>

         12.15 Consents. Except as specifically otherwise provided in this
Agreement, each party agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold any consent
or approval requested by the other party pursuant to the terms of the Agreement,
and that any such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or

Agreement which, in order to be effective, must survive the termination of this
Agreement, shall survive any such termination.

shall run to or be enforceable by any party other than the party to this
Agreement or by a party deriving rights hereunder as a result of an assignment
permitted pursuant to the terms hereof.

         12.18 Waivers. No failure by Manager or Lessee to insist upon the
strict performances of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this
Agreement, or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon the breach
thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any subsequent breach
of such covenant, agreement, term or condition. No covenant, agreement, term or
condition of this Agreement and no breach thereof shall be waived, altered or
modified except by written instrument. No waiver of any breach shall affect or
alter this Agreement, but each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition

other then existing or subsequent breach thereof.

         12.19 Partial Invalidity. Any provision of this Agreement prohibited by
law or by court decree in any locality or state shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition without in any way invalidating or affecting the
remaining provisions of this Agreement, or without invalidating or affecting the
provisions of this Agreement within the states or localities where not
prohibited or otherwise invalidated by law or by court decree. Further, in the
event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held unenforceable by virtue
of its scope, but may be made enforceable by a limitation thereof, such
provision shall be deemed to be amended to the minimum extent necessary to
render it enforceable under the laws of the jurisdiction in which enforcement is
sought.

12.20    Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and be governed by
the laws of the State in which the Premises are located.

12.21 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.22 Subordination. This Agreement shall be subordinate to any mortgage
encumbering the Hotel, and Manager agrees to enter into a lender-manager
agreement with respect to the Hotel, which agreement shall contain reasonable
lender-manager provisions, including, without limitation, Manager's
acknowledgement that its real estate interest in and to the Hotel, if any,
created by this Agreement is subordinate to any mortgage encumbering such Hotel,

<PAGE>

including providing any purchaser of such Hotel at a foreclosure sale or
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure (including the lender) with the right to terminate
this Agreement with respect to such Hotel; provided, however, in no event will
Manager agree to subordinate or waive its right to receive fees, reimbursements
or indemnification payments under this Agreement arising prior to termination
(but (a) if this Agreement is terminated by the lender or such purchaser with
respect to such Hotel, Manager shall not look to the lender for payment of such
fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments and Manager's right to receive
such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments shall be subordinated to
the lender's rights and (b) if this Agreement is not terminated by the lender or
such purchaser with respect to such Hotel, then such fees, reimbursements or
indemnification payments shall be payable by the lender or such purchaser).

12.23 Compliance with License Agreement. During the Term of this Agreement and
so long as the Hotel is licensed as a Marriott International, Inc. ("Marriott")
product, the following provisions shall apply to such Hotel:

        A.        Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Lessee and
                  Manager acknowledge and agree that the Manager shall have the
                  authority for the day-to-day management of the Hotel;

        B.        Subject to the provision by Lessee of sufficient funds to so
                  comply, the Manager will operate the Hotel during the Term of
                  this Agreement in strict compliance with the Marriott License
                  Agreement (specifically including, but not limited to,
                  Licensee's obligation to pay any and all fees, charges and
                  contributions set forth in the License Agreement) and Manager
                  shall keep the License Agreement in full force and effect
                  throughout the term of this Agreement;

        C.        Except in extraordinary circumstances, such as theft or fraud
                  on the part of the Manager or default by Lessee under the
                  License Agreement caused by the Manager for which the Lessee
                  needs to promptly remove the Manager from the Hotel, this
                  Agreement shall not be terminated by Lessee without at least
                  thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Marriott;

        D.        If there are conflicts between any provision(s) of this
                  Agreement and the License Agreement, the provision(s) of the
                  License Agreement shall control; and

        E         Manager and Lessee acknowledge that the License Agreement
                  permits Marriott to communicate directly with the Manager
                  regarding day-to-day operation of the Hotel.

         Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner which would
either (i) relieve Lessee of any of its obligations under the License Agreement
or (ii) prevent Lessee from validly contesting provisions of the License
Agreement.

         12.24 Closing Contingency. This Agreement will only become effective
upon the successful closing of the purchase and sale of the Hotel from an
affiliate of Manager to an affiliate of Lessee.

<PAGE>


                              MANAGEMENT FEE RIDER

                  A. Gross Operating Revenues. The term Gross Operating Revenues
as used in this Agreement shall mean all receipts, revenues, income and proceeds
of sales of every kind received by Manager directly or indirectly from the
operation of the Hotel. Gross Operating Revenues shall exclude all sales and
excise taxes and any similar taxes collected as direct taxes payable to taxing
authorities; gratuities or service charges collected for payment to and paid to
employees; credit or refunds to guests; proceeds of insurance, save and except
for proceeds of insurance with respect to use and occupancy or business
interruption insurance; proceeds of sales of real estate and/or furniture,
fixtures and equipment; proceeds of refinancings; and proceeds of condemnation.

                   B. Net Operating Income. The term "Net Operating Income" as
used in this agreement shall mean the excess, during each Calendar Year (and
proportionally for any period less than a Calendar Year), of Gross Operating
Revenues over expenses and deductions incurred in the operation of the Hotel by
Manager in fulfilling its duties hereunder during such period determined in
accordance with the accounting system established by the Uniform System (except
as modified by this Agreement). In arriving at Net Operating Income, all
expenses shall be proper deductions from Gross Operating Revenues insofar as
they relate to the operation of the Hotel, including, without limit, all Base
Management Fees, license fees, franchisor royalties, real estate and special
assessment taxes, property and liability insurance, a reserve of four percent
(4%) of Gross Operating Revenue for capital improvements (whether or not such
reserve is held in escrow) and fees and direct out-of-pocket charges of Manager
or its affiliates as well as corporate charges (as described below).

In accordance with Manager's past practices, out-of-pocket costs and corporate
charges may include, but are not limited to ravel costs for corporate staff
traveling specifically on behalf of or for the benefit of the Hotel;

                  C. RevPar Index. The term "RevPar Index" as used in this
Agreement shall mean the Competitive Set RevPar Index as reported by Smith
Travel Research. The Competitive Set included in the STR reports shall be the
Competitive Set in existence at the time this Agreement is executed and shall be
attached hereto as Exhibit "A" to Management Fee Rider and may not be changed
except by the mutual agreement of the Lessee and the Manager. The RevPar Index
used in the calculation of the Additional Incentive Fee shall be the year to
date RevPar Index for the latest STR Report in existence when final year-end
financial statements are delivered to Lessee.

                  D. Base Management Fee. During each Calendar Year after the
Management Commencement Date (and for a fraction of any partial Calendar Year),
in consideration of the services Manager is to render under this Agreement,
Manager will be paid a fee ("Base Management Fee") at the rate of three percent
(3.0%) of Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel per Calendar Year:

         The Base Management Fee will be paid in installments by deducting such
fee from Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel immediately following each
Accounting Period at the rate of the corresponding percentage of Gross Operating

<PAGE>

Revenues for that Accounting Period. At the end of each Accounting Period, an
adjustment will be made on a cumulative year-to-date basis, if necessary, and
all sums due either the Manager or Lessee shall be paid immediately.

                  E. Incentive Fees. In addition to the Base Management Fee,
during each Calendar Year after the Management Commencement Date (and for any
partial Calendar Year) in which Manager is to render services under this
Agreement, Manager will be paid an incentive fee as follows:

                  For any Calendar Year in which the Net Operating Income of the
                  Hotel is greater or equal to Target NOI, Manager shall be paid
                  an Incentive Fee equal to 1% of Gross Operating Revenues.

                  If payment of the Incentive Fee, when subtracted from the Net
                  Operating Income of the Hotel results in an amount less than
                  the Target NOI amount, the Incentive Fee will be adjusted so
                  that the net result of subtracting the Incentive Fee from the
                  Hotel's Net Operating Income for the Calendar year is not an
                  amount less than the Target NOI. In no event will the
                  Incentive Fee exceed 1% of Gross Revenue.

                  F. Additional Incentive Fees. In addition to the Base
Management Fee and the Incentive fee, during each Calendar Year after the
Management Commencement Date (and for any partial Calendar Year) in which
Manager is to render services under this Agreement, Manager will be paid an
Additional Incentive Fee as follows:

                  For any Calendar Year in which the Net Operating Income of the
                  Hotel, after payment of the Incentive Fee exceeds the Target
                  NOI, Manager shall be paid an Additional Incentive Fee as
                  follows:

                  Managers shall receive a portion of excess dollars above the
                  Target NOI after payment of the Incentive Fee up to 1% of
                  Gross Revenue. The Manager's portion of the excess dollars
                  shall be paid as follows:

                  G. The Incentive Fee and the Additional Incentive Fee will be
payable to Manager from Gross Operating Revenues of the Hotel on a quarterly
basis with a final reconciliation following the end of each Calendar Year. The
Manager will submit to the Lessee the calculation of the Incentive Fee and the
Additional Incentive Fee quarterly along with the delivery of the year-end
financial statements pursuant to Section 7.04 of the Management Agreement, after
which the Lessee shall have ten (10) calendar days to advise the Manager of any
disagreement with such calculation quarterly and annually. Following the
Calendar Year-end audit conducted by Lessee or Lessee's representatives, an
adjustment will be made if necessary, and all sums due either Manager or Lessee
shall be paid immediately.

                  H. Accounting Fee. In addition to the Base Management Fee and
the Incentive Fee, the Manager shall be paid a fee for centralized accounting
services (the "Accounting Fee") equal to the amount charged by Manager monthly
for all Manager's managed hotels based on the type of hotel managed per
Accounting Period during the Term of this Agreement and for one (1) Accounting
Period after the applicable termination of this Agreement with respect to the
Hotel. The Accounting Fee shall be set annually and is intended to be a
break-even fee for the accounting department. Such centralized accounting
services consist of the processing of daily accounting transactions necessary
for the preparation of the monthly financial statements, including general
ledger, accounts payable, payroll (in conjunction with the payroll processing
firm) and banking. In addition, the following expenses are included in the
annual accounting fee

            a.    express mail and regular postage for items sent specifically
                  to or on behalf of the Hotel, which would include accounts
                  payable checks, weekly invoices and accounting information to
                  and from the Hotel, payroll checks, payroll reports and other
                  documents necessary for the efficient operation of the Hotel;

            b.    telephone and fax costs specifically for the Hotel; and

            c.    costs of photocopying specifically for the Hotel.

However, Lessee is responsible for all payroll processing firm fees associated
with processing the hotel's payroll as well as any banking service charges for
operating and maintaining the bank account or accounts for the hotel.
