absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) relating to such Hotel Property not assumed or taken subject to, by the buyer, to the extent
not otherwise expressly taken into account as a reduction in fair market value in the appraisal. Without duplication, the fair market
value of all other assets and liabilities contained in the CVR Asset Pool that are not Hotel Properties shall be determined based on the
most recent quarterly balance sheet for the CVR Holding Company furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 4.3(a). The
fair market value of any non-cash consideration actually received in respect of any Holdback Amount shall be determined by the Independent
Investment Banker. The fair market value of any Holdback Amount that remains contingent as of the Final Payment Date but is not yet payable
pursuant to the terms of the applicable definitive agreement(s) shall be the Holdback Value of such Holdback Amount; provided
that the Holdback Value of such Holdback Amount shall be included in the calculation of the aggregate Value of the CVR Asset Pool as of

Article 2

CONTINGENT VALUE RIGHTS


 


Section 2.1.           Issuance
of Contingent Value Rights; Appointment of CVR Agent.


 


(a)           Pursuant
to the Plan, the Contingent Value Rights represent the contractual rights of Holders to receive contingent cash payments if and to the
extent payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The initial persons entitled to be Holders shall be the holders of Shares as of
immediately prior to the Effective Date (including, without limitation, holders of restricted stock units that as of immediately prior
to the Effective Date will be terminated and paid in Shares in accordance with the Plan). Each Holder shall be entitled to one Contingent
Value Right for each Share owned as of immediately prior to the Effective Date pursuant to the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan and Confirmation
Order, each Holder is automatically deemed to have accepted the terms of this Agreement and is automatically deemed to be a party hereto
as if, and with the same effect as if, such Holder had delivered a duly executed counterpart signature page to this Agreement without
any further action by any party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holders are deemed to hereby acknowledge that the Contingent Value Rights
are not “securities” within the meaning of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any other applicable federal, state or foreign
securities laws.


 


(b)           The
Company hereby appoints the CVR Agent to act as agent for the Company with respect to the Contingent Value Rights in accordance with the
express terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (and no implied terms and conditions), and the CVR Agent hereby accepts such
appointment.


 


(c)           The
maximum aggregate number of Contingent Value Rights that may be outstanding under this CVR Agreement is limited to 40,050,332.091 (the
 “Initial Contingent Value Rights”), which is the number of Contingent Value Rights that were issued pursuant
to the Plan and in accordance with Section 2.1(a) above and which Contingent Value Rights were outstanding as of the
Effective Date. The number of outstanding Contingent Value Rights at any given time may be less than the number of Initial Contingent
Value Rights, if reduced in accordance with Section 2.9 upon the abandonment of a Contingent Value Right. From and after
the Effective Date, the Company shall not be permitted to issue any additional Contingent Value Rights under this CVR Agreement.


 


Section 2.2.           Non-transferability.
The Contingent Value Rights are non-transferable and shall not be Transferred, other than a Permitted Transfer to a Permitted Transferee.
No Holder may Transfer any economic interest in a Contingent Value Right to any other Person. Any final determination regarding whether
a proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee shall be made by the Company, in its discretion, pursuant to Section 2.3(c) below.
Any purported Transfer of a Contingent Value Right to anyone other than a Permitted Transferee shall be null and void ab initio.


 






     13


     


    

 


Section 2.3.           No
Certificate; Registration; Registration of Transfer; Change of Address.


 


(a)           The
Contingent Value Rights shall not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument.


 


(b)          The
CVR Agent shall keep a register (the “CVR Register”) for the registration of Contingent Value Rights in a book-entry
position for each Holder. The CVR Register shall set forth the name and address of each Holder and the number of Contingent Value Rights
held by such Holder. The CVR Register will be updated as necessary by the CVR Agent to reflect the addition or removal of Holders (including
pursuant to any Permitted Transfers or abandonment pursuant to Section 2.9 ), upon receipt of such information by the CVR
Agent. The Company or the Company’s Affiliates or representatives may receive and inspect a copy of the CVR Register, from time
to time, upon request made to the CVR Agent.


 


(c)           Subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.2, every request made to Transfer a Contingent Value Right to a Permitted Transferee
must be made in writing to the Company and the CVR Agent and set forth in reasonable detail the circumstances related to the proposed
Transfer, and must be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer and any other requested information or documentation
in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the CVR Agent, duly and validly executed by the registered Holder or Holders thereof
or by the duly appointed legal representative thereof or by a duly authorized attorney, with such signature to be guaranteed by a guarantor
institution that is a participant in a signature guarantee medallion program approved by the Securities Transfer Association. A request
for a Transfer of a Contingent Value Right shall be accompanied by documentation establishing the Transfer is to a Permitted Transferee
and any other information as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the CVR Agent (including opinions of counsel, if requested
by the Company or the CVR Agent). Upon receipt of such a written Transfer request, the Company shall, subject to its reasonable determination
that the Transfer instrument is in proper form and the transfer otherwise complies with the other terms and conditions herein, instruct
the CVR Agent in writing to register the Transfer of the Contingent Value Rights in the CVR Register. All duly Transferred Contingent
Value Rights registered in the CVR Register shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same rights and entitling the
transferee to the same benefits and rights under this Agreement as those held immediately prior to the Transfer by the transferor. No
Transfer of a Contingent Value Right shall be valid until registered in the CVR Register, and any Transfer not duly registered in the
CVR Register will be void ab initio (unless the Transfer was permissible hereunder and such failure to be duly registered is attributable
to the fault of the CVR Agent to be established by clear and convincing evidence). Any Transfer of the Contingent Value Rights shall
be without charge to the Holder; provided that the Company and the CVR Agent may require (i) payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any Tax or charge that is imposed in connection with such Transfer, or (ii) that the transferor establish to the reasonable
satisfaction of the CVR Agent that such Taxes have been paid. The CVR Agent shall have no obligation to pay any such Taxes or charges
and the CVR Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any action under any section of this Agreement that requires the payment by
a Holder of such Taxes or charges unless and until the CVR Agent is satisfied that all such Taxes or charges have been paid. Additionally,
the fees and costs related to any legal opinion requested under this Section 2.3(c) shall be the responsibility of the
Holder. Any attempted Transfer of a Contingent Value Right, in whole or in part, that is not permitted by this Section 2.3(c),
including any attempted Transfer that is made to any party other than a Permitted Transferee or otherwise not effected in accordance
with the terms set forth herein, will be void and of no effect.


 






     14


     


    

 


(d)           A
Holder may make a written request to the CVR Agent to change such Holder’s address of record in the CVR Register. The written request
must be duly and validly executed by the Holder. Upon receipt of such written notice, the CVR Agent shall promptly record the change of
address in the CVR Register.


 


Section 2.4.           Determination
of Total Distributable Amount.


 


(a)            The
amount distributable to Holders pursuant to Section 2.4(g) in respect of a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event
(if any), the Final Payment Date Distribution (if any) or a Holdback Payment Distribution (if any) is the “Total Distributable
Amount” with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment
Distribution. The Total Distributable Amount shall be calculated by applying the distribution allocations to the Holders described in
Section 2.4(g) to the aggregate Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool, the aggregate Value of the CVR Asset Pool and any Holdback
Amount, to the extent applicable in accordance with Section 2.4(b) (such amount being hereinafter referred to as the
 “Total CVR Pool Amount”).


 


(b)          Subject
to Section 2.4(d) below, the “Total CVR Pool Amount”
shall equal:


 


(i)             in
connection with a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event (if any), (A) the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool (determined in accordance
with Section 2.4(c)) for such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event less (B) the CVR Distribution Expenses
incurred in connection with such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event less (C) the then-outstanding aggregate amount
of Post-Effective Date Contributions (if any);


 


(ii)            in
connection with the Final Payment Date Distribution (if any), the sum of (A) (1) if a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event
has occurred prior to the Final Payment Date, (x) the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool from any Monetization Event for which a payment
has not yet been made pursuant to Section 2.5(c) and (y) any portion of a Holdback Amount in respect of which the
Company has actually received cash prior to the Final Payment Date, or (2) if a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event has not
occurred prior to the Final Payment Date, (x) the Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale for any Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale completed prior
to the Final Payment Date (reduced by any portion of such Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale that was distributed out of CVR Holding Company
in cash and is therefore an Additional Adjustment Amount) and (y) any portion of a Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company
has actually received cash prior to the Final Payment Date, in each case to the extent not previously paid or applied pursuant to Section 2.4(g),
plus (B) the Value of the CVR Asset Pool not sold or transferred prior to the Final Payment Date, less (C) the
CVR Distribution Expenses incurred in connection with the Final Payment Date Distribution and less (D) the then-outstanding
aggregate amount of Post-Effective Date Contributions (if any); and


 






     15


     


    

 


(iii)           in
connection with a Holdback Payment Distribution (if any), (A) any Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually received
cash plus (B) the Value of any Holdback Amount in respect of which the Company has actually received non-cash consideration,
in each case, to the extent not previously taken into account in the calculation of a Total CVR Pool Amount less (C) the CVR
Distribution Expenses incurred in connection with the Holdback Payment Date Distribution.


 


For the avoidance of doubt,
no proceeds from the sale of any Hotel Property prior to a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or, if no Distribution Triggering
Monetization Event has occurred prior to the Final Payment Date, the Final Payment Date that is not a Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale shall
be included in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount.


 


(c)           Subject
to Section 2.4(d) below, “Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool” shall be determined and calculated
in accordance with this Section 2.4(c) to be equal to:


 


(i)            (A) in
the case of a Monetization Event that is structured as a sale of All or Substantially All of the Assets of the CVR Asset Pool as described
in clause (ii) of the definition of Monetization Event or the sale of a Hotel Property as described in clause (iii) of
the definition of Monetization Event, the amount of any cash or non-cash consideration payable to the Company (with the Value of any non-cash
consideration determined by the Independent Investment Banker) less (1) the mortgage indebtedness and other indebtedness and
liabilities (whether known, unknown, absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) not assumed by the buyer or to which the buyer does not
acquire the assets subject to, and (2) reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Company in connection with
such Monetization Event, or (B) in the case of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event, (1) the amount of the consideration paid
to the Shareholders (with the Value of any non-cash consideration determined by the Independent Investment Banker) less (2) the
reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Shareholders in connection with such Monetization Event, plus


 


(ii)            in
the case of the first occurrence of a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale for any Hotel Property
that was sold prior to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event pursuant to a Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.4(b) or Section 2.4(c):


 


(i)             the
Holders shall not be entitled to receive any payment pursuant to this Agreement if the aggregate Adjusted EBITDA of the Hotel Properties
in the CVR Asset Pool at the time of any Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or, if no Distribution Triggering Monetization Event
has occurred prior thereto, the Final Payment Date, as applicable, does not exceed the aggregate Adjusted EBITDA Threshold for such Hotel
Properties;


 






     16


     


    

 


(ii)            in
the case of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event structured such that cash or non-cash consideration is payable to the Shareholders
and less than all of the Capital Stock in the Company or its applicable Subsidiary(ies) is sold pursuant to such Change-of-Control Monetization
Event, for the purposes of determining the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool determined pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i), the
balance of the Capital Stock not sold in such Change-of-Control Monetization Event shall be deemed to have been sold to the same purchaser(s),
in the same transaction and for the same amount and type of consideration per share as the shares of Capital Stock actually sold pursuant
to such Change-of-Control Monetization Event, such that all of the Capital Stock in the Company or its applicable Subsidiary(ies) shall
be deemed to have been sold pursuant to such Change-of Control Monetization Event and any amount payable on the CVR Payment Date with
respect to such Change-of-Control Monetization Event shall be the only payment Holders will, if such a Change-of-Control Monetization
Event occurs, be entitled to receive under this Agreement other than any additional amount that may become payable to the Holders (A) as
part of the Final Payment Date Distribution with respect to any portion of a Holdback Amount actually received prior to the Final Payment
Date and, at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi), the Holdback Value with respect to any portion of
a Holdback Amount not actually received in cash prior to the Final Distribution Date or (B) as part of a Holdback Payment Distribution;


 


(iii)           for
the purposes of determining the applicable amount determined pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) or the Net Proceeds from Hotel
Sale for any Hotel Property, consideration shall not include any amount of such consideration payable (any such amount, a “Holdback
Amount”) pursuant to the applicable transaction that is subject to escrow or similar arrangements pursuant to the terms
of the definitive documentation governing such transaction as in effect upon the occurrence thereof (any such arrangement, a “Holdback”),
including (A) any such consideration that may be paid pursuant to earn-outs, holdbacks, milestones or other contingent arrangements
(whether or not related to future earnings or operations), (B) any such consideration placed in escrow or otherwise held back to
support indemnification obligations, specified liabilities (including taxes), purchase price adjustments, known or contingent claims (including
making provision for such claims as required by applicable law in connection with a dissolution), or other obligations, and (C) any
such consideration that is set aside in a separate account for use by the Company or an agent or representative of the Holders in connection
with such transaction whose duties include, among other things, managing, addressing, monitoring or otherwise dealing with post-closing
matters relating to such transaction to manage, address, monitor or otherwise deal with post-closing matters relating to such transaction;
provided that any such Holdback Amount (or a portion thereof) shall be deemed to be included in Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool
or Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale when released from such escrow or other arrangement and paid to the Company or the Shareholders, as applicable,
and any additional amount that would have been payable to the Holders on any CVR Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.5(c) with
respect to the Holdback Amount (or a portion thereof) so released and paid prior to the Final Payment Date shall instead be payable to
the Holders as part of the Final Payment Date Distribution pursuant to Section 2.5(d);


 






     17


     


    

 


(iv)          in
no event shall Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool or Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale include (A) any consideration received by the Company
or the holders of Capital Stock that is not directly attributable to the acquisition of Capital Stock or any assets of the Company, including
payments made by the counterparty to a Monetization Event or other applicable transaction in respect of agreements not to compete, employment
or consulting arrangements, transition services or other similar arrangements, (B) any portion of the consideration in a Monetization
Event or other applicable transaction that is not paid to the Company or the holders of Capital Stock, as applicable, including any portion
of the consideration that is used to pay indebtedness (including principal, interest, break fees, management fees and any other fees and
expenses), fees and expenses, change of control payments (including transfer and consent fees and severance or other termination payments),
bonuses, brokers' commissions or similar fees, or other liabilities of the Company (other than liabilities that have been expressly excluded
from the calculation of Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool or Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale in accordance with the terms of this Agreement)
or (C) any debt (including capital leases), operating leases, accounts payable or other liabilities of the Company assumed, acquired,
refinanced or replaced by a counterparty to a Monetization Event or other applicable transaction;


 


(v)           if
the assets subject to a Monetization Event include assets that are not included in the CVR Asset Pool for any reason (including if such
assets are Excluded Assets or were acquired by the Company subsequent to the Effective Date), the applicable
amount determined pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) shall be determined by an Independent Investment
Banker, which amount shall represent a proportionate adjustment based on the ratio of the Value of the assets subject to the Monetization
Event that are included in the CVR Asset Pool as compared to the Value of the assets subject to the Monetization Event that are not included
in the CVR Asset Pool, as adjusted to the extent necessary to reflect a similarly proportionate share, to the extent applicable, of associated
indebtedness and other liabilities and costs and expenses;


 


(vi)          if
any portion of a Holdback Amount remains contingent as of the Final Payment Date, then, at the Company’s election (acting in its
sole discretion), either (A) the Holdback Value of such portion of such Holdback Amount shall be included in the Company’s
calculation of the Value of the CVR Asset Pool not sold or transferred prior to the Final Payment Date calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii) in
respect of the Final Payment Date Distribution or (B) Holders shall have the right to be paid a distribution (any such distribution
described in this clause (B), a “Holdback Payment Distribution”) if and when the Company actually receives consideration
in respect of such portion of such Holdback Amount.


 






     18


     


    

 


(vii)         the
Value of any portion of a Holdback Amount that remains contingent as of the Final Payment Date and the Company elects to take into account
in the calculation of the Final Payment Date Distribution pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(A) (the “Holdback
Value”) shall be determined in accordance with the value at which it is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet
for the quarter ended immediately preceding the Final Payment Date in accordance with GAAP or, if such Holdback Amount is not reflected
on the Company’s balance sheet for the quarter ended immediately preceding the Final Payment Date in accordance with GAAP, the
Value of such Holdback Amount shall be an amount equal to the value at which such Holdback Amount would have been reflected on the Company’s
balance sheet as of such quarter-end if it had been required to be so reflected in accordance with GAAP as
such value is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors;


 


(viii)        for
the avoidance of doubt, following the payment by the Company of a Final Payment Date Distribution that takes into account the Holdback
Value of any portion of a Holdback Amount pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(A), no further amount in respect of such portion
of such Holdback Amount shall be payable or distributable pursuant to this Agreement and there shall be no Holdback Payment Distribution
with respect to such portion of such Holdback Amount; and


 


(ix)           in
no event shall the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool, Net Proceeds from Hotel Sale or Value include any amount attributable to the outstanding
principal amount of any Upstream Intercompany Loans.


 


(e)            If,
prior to the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the Final Payment Date, (i) there has not been a Distribution Triggering Monetization
Event or (ii) (A) there has been a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, (B) there has not been a Change-of-Control
Monetization Event and (C) not all of the assets of the CVR Asset Pool have been sold, then the Board of Directors shall, on or prior
to such day, appoint an Independent Valuer to determine the Value of the CVR Asset Pool as of the Final Payment Date. The Company shall
provide the Independent Valuer with any applicable financial statements and other supporting documentation relating to the applicable
Hotel Properties that the Independent Valuer shall reasonably request. The Independent Valuer shall be instructed to make the determination
of the Value of the Hotel Properties and submit a report meeting the requirements for an MAI appraisal not later than the twenty-sixth
(26th) Business Day prior to the Final Payment Date. The Company shall pay all fees and disbursements due to the Independent
Valuer, which fees and disbursements shall constitute CVR Distribution Expenses under this Agreement and shall be deducted from the Net
Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount described above in Section 2.4(b). Any decision
rendered by the Independent Valuer with respect to the Value of any Hotel Property shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Company
and each Holder (absent manifest error) for purposes of this Agreement.


 


(f)


 


(i)             If
either there has been a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event in which any consideration has been excluded from the calculation of
the Net Proceeds from the CVR Asset Pool for such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event as a result of a Holdback, then the Net Proceeds
from CVR Asset Pool shall be re-calculated as of the Final Payment Date to include any portion of the Holdback that has been actually
received by the Company or the Shareholders prior to the Final Payment Date, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, following the
CVR Payment Date in respect of a Change-of-Control Monetization Event, there shall be no additional amount payable to Holders under this
Agreement other than, if applicable, the payment of any amount in respect of any proceeds from a Holdback actually received by the Company
or the Shareholders following such CVR Payment Date and prior to the Final Payment Date and the Holdback Value.


 






     19


     


    

 


(ii)            In
connection with any Holdback Payment Distribution in which all or a portion of the Holdback Amount actually received is in non-cash consideration,
then the Board of Directors shall appoint an Independent Investment Banker to determine the Value of such non-cash consideration promptly
following its actual receipt thereof. The Company shall provide the Independent Investment Banker with any applicable supporting documentation
relating to the applicable non-cash consideration that the Independent Investment Banker shall reasonably request. The Independent Investment
Banker shall be instructed to make the determination of the Holdback Value with respect to such non-cash consideration not later than
the tenth (10th) Business Day following such appointment. The Company shall pay all fees and disbursements due to the Independent
Investment Banker, which fees and disbursements shall constitute CVR Distribution Expenses under this Agreement and shall be deducted
from the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool in the calculation of the Total CVR Pool Amount described above in Section 2.4(b) with
respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution. Any decision rendered by the Independent Investment Banker with respect to the Value of
such non-cash consideration shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Company and each Holder (absent manifest error) for purposes
of this Agreement.


 


(g)          Subject
in all respects to Section 2.4(h), the Total Distributable Amount that shall be distributable to the Holders in connection
with a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Final Payment Date Distribution or any Holdback Payment Distribution shall be
calculated as follows (with each Holder entitled to receive its Pro Rata Payment Amount of the amounts set forth in this Section 2.4(g) that
are distributable to the Holders):


 


(i)             first,
the Total CVR Pool Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback
Payment Distribution, as applicable, plus the Additional Adjustment Amount as of the calculation date (the sum of such amounts,
the “Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount”) shall be applied to reduce the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount (as
previously reduced from prior applications in accordance with this Section 2.4(g)(i) and Section 2.4(i))
until the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount has been reduced to zero;


 


(ii)            second,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final
Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution, as applicable, less (B) the amount applied to reduce the
DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount pursuant to Section 2.4(g)(i) in connection with such Distribution Triggering Monetization
Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution, as applicable, is greater than zero, the remainder of such Adjusted
Total CVR Pool Amount shall be applied to reduce the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount (as previously reduced from
prior applications in accordance with this Section 2.4(g)(ii) and Section 2.4(i)) until the Supporting Stockholder
CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount has been reduced to zero;


 






     20


     


    

 


(iii)           third,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B) the amounts applied to reduce the DIP Financing
Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and 2.4(g)(ii) is
greater than zero, 6.0% of the remainder of such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders until 94.0% of such
remainder as of the calculation date (the “Section 2.4(g)(iii) 94% Amount”) plus the
aggregate amount of any Section 2.4(g)(iii) 94% Amounts calculated from prior applications of this Section 2.4(g)(iii) equals
a return of 15.0% per annum accrued starting on the day following the Effective Date and thereafter on the basis of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, compounding quarterly, on the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount balance
from time to time;


 


(iv)           fourth,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B) (x) the amounts applied to reduce
the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and
2.4(g)(ii) and (y) the amounts distributable to the Holders under Section 2.4(g)(iii) is greater than
zero, 6.0% of the remainder of such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders until 94.0% of such remainder
as of the calculation date (the “Section 2.4(g)(iv) 94% Amount”) plus the aggregate
amount of any Section 2.4(g)(iv) 94% Amounts calculated from prior applications of this Section 2.4(g)(iv) equals
a return of 12.5% per annum accrued starting on the day following the Petition Date and thereafter on the basis of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, compounding quarterly, on the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested
Amount balance from time to time; and


 


(v)            fifth,
if the amount equal to (A) the Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount less (B)(x) the amounts applied to reduce the DIP
Financing Invested Capital Amount and the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount pursuant to Sections 2.4(g)(i) and
2.4(g)(ii) and (y) the amounts distributable to the Holders under Sections 2.4(g)(iii) and 2.4(g)(iv) is
greater than zero, 25.0% of the remainder of such Adjusted Total CVR Pool Amount shall be distributable to the Holders.


 


(h)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the total amount distributable to a Holder
under this Agreement may not exceed $6.00 per Contingent Value Right held by such Holder.


 


(i)            For
the avoidance of doubt, (i) any distribution, payment or loan that is an Additional Adjustment Amount shall be deemed to have reduced,
as applicable, the balance of the DIP Financing Invested Capital Amount or the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount,
as applicable, on the funding date of such distribution, payment or loan, (ii) any reduction in the DIP Financing Invested Capital
Amount or the Supporting Stockholder CVR Asset Pool Invested Amount in connection with a Monetization Event
shall be deemed to have occurred on the date of the Monetization Event and (iii) no amount shall be distributable with respect to
the sale of a Hotel Property as described in clause (iii) of the definition of Monetization Event prior to the Final Payment
Date Distribution, but the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool from any such Monetization Event shall be taken into account in determining
the Total Distributable Amount in respect of the Final Payment Date Distribution in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii)(A)(1).


 






     21


     


    

 


(j)            For
illustrative purposes only, an example of a calculation of the Total Distributable Amount in accordance with Section 2.4(g) is
set forth on Schedule III attached hereto together with a spreadsheet supporting such calculation.


 


(k)           For
the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement; (i) no Holder shall be entitled
to any distribution in excess of its Pro Rata Payment Amount; (ii) the amount by which (A) the amount that would otherwise be
distributable to the Holders pursuant to Section 2.4(g) exceeds (B) the aggregate of all of the Pro Rata Payment
Amounts with respect to the applicable Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment
Distribution shall, in each case, be for the Company’s account, with such excess amount to be used in the Company’s sole discretion
and without limitation or further obligation to any Holder or otherwise under this Agreement (including any obligation to take such excess
into account in the calculation of any Total Distributable Amount with respect to a future Distribution Triggering Monetization Event,
Final Payment Date Distribution or Holdback Payment Distribution); and (iii) the amount required to be deposited with the CVR Agent
pursuant to Section 2.5 with respect to the Total Distributable Amount shall be the aggregate of the Pro Rata Payment Amounts
that are actually distributable to the Holders.


 


Section 2.5.           Payment
Procedures.


 


(a)           If
a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event occurs, then no later than the later of (i) the date upon which the financial information
with respect to the CVR Asset Pool for the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which such Distribution Triggering
Monetization Event occurs is required to be provided to the CVR Agent pursuant to Section 4.3(a) and (ii) the date
that is thirty (30) days following such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event, the Company shall deliver to the CVR Agent and the
CVR Agent shall, pursuant to the confidential, password-protected website that shall be established and administered by the CVR Agent
pursuant to Section 4.3(b) make available a certificate with the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the Measurement Period
for all Hotel Properties in the CVR Asset Pool individually and in the aggregate, and individually for any Hotel Property that was sold
prior to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event in a sale that qualified or did not qualify as a Qualifying CVR Asset Pool Sale,
the corresponding Adjusted EBITDA Threshold for each such Hotel Property, and the Company’s calculation of the Net Proceeds from
CVR Asset Pool, the Total CVR Pool Amount (if different from the Net Proceeds from CVR Asset Pool) and the Total Distributable Amount
with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event (the “Calculation Certificate”), which such
Calculation Certificate and the information contained therein shall be deemed to be Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement
and subject to the terms and provisions of Section 4.3(b) hereof. The Company shall Make Available notice of the fact
that such Calculation Certificate has been made available on such confidential website. If such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event
is the consummation of the direct or indirect sale of All or Substantially All of the Assets and not all of the assets included in the
CVR Asset Pool have been sold or the consideration payable in such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event could result in all or any
portion of a Holdback Amount becoming payable in accordance with Section 2.4(d)(iii), the Calculation Certificate shall also
so indicate and state that the Holders may be entitled to receive an additional cash payment with respect to the remaining assets in the
CVR Asset Pool that were not sold in such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or the Holdback Amount. If an Independent Valuer
is appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e), then on or prior to the twenty-fifth (25th) Business Day prior to the
Final Payment Date, the Company will deliver a Calculation Certificate (which Calculation Certificate shall also include the Value calculated
in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(ii)(B) and information regarding any elections made by the Company pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi))
to the CVR Agent and make available such Calculation Certificate in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.5(a).


 






     22


     


    

 



 


(b)            Subject
to Section 2.5(d), during the twenty (20) Business Day period after the Calculation Certificate is made available to Holders
in accordance with Section 2.5(a) (the “Objection Period”), the Majority of Holders may send
a notice duly and validly executed by such Holders (the “Notice of Objection”) to the CVR Agent and the Company
detailing their objection to any calculation of a Total Distributable Amount hereunder as set forth in the Calculation Certificate by
providing a reasonable, good faith basis for their objection; provided however such objection may not relate to any item determined
by the Independent Valuer or Independent Investment Banker. Following the receipt of a Notice of Objection, the Company shall permit,
and shall cause its Subsidiaries to permit, the Independent Accountant to have access to the records of the Company or its Subsidiaries
as may be reasonably necessary to investigate the basis for the Notice of Objection. Any dispute arising from a Notice of Objection will
be resolved by the Independent Accountant in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 2.6, which decision will be final,
conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and every Holder (absent manifest error). If a Notice of Objection has not been delivered
to the Company within the Objection Period, then the Company’s calculations in the Calculation Certificate will be final, conclusive
and binding on the parties hereto and every Holder for all purposes of this Agreement.


 


(c)            If,
following the delivery of a Calculation Certificate and the Objection Period or, if applicable, completion of the procedure set forth
in Section 2.6(a) with respect to a Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or the Final Payment Date Distribution (with
respect to which an Independent Valuer has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e)) for which a Notice of Objection has been duly
and validly executed by the Majority of Holders and timely delivered to the CVR Agent, there is a Total Distributable Amount distributable
to the Holders with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization Event or Final Payment Date Distribution, the Company will deposit
with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Distribution Triggering Monetization
Event or Final Payment Date. On the date (a “CVR Payment Date”) that is not more than five (5) Business
Days after receipt of such Total Distributable Amount (and which shall, if with respect to a distribution with respect to the Final Payment
Date, be the Final Payment Date), the CVR Agent will then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment Amount
with respect to such Total Distributable Amount by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected in the CVR
Register, or, if agreed to by the Company with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire transfer instructions meeting
the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.


 








    	 	23	 



     


    

 


(d)            If
a Final Payment Date Distribution is payable to the Holders on the Final Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.4(g) and
no Independent Valuer has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.4(e), the Company will, on the fifth (5th) Business
Day prior to the Final Payment Date, deposit with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount to be distributed
on the Final Payment Date. Holders shall have no right to object to the calculation of this amount pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or
otherwise. On the Final Payment Date, the CVR Agent will then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment
Amount with respect to such Total Distributable Amount either by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder as reflected
in the CVR Register, or, if agreed to by the Company, with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire transfer instructions
meeting the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.


 


(e)            If
a Holdback Payment Distribution is payable to the Holders at any time pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(B) and all of the
consideration received in respect of the applicable Holdback Amount was cash, the Company will, within ten (10) Business Days after
receipt of the cash consideration in respect of the applicable Holdback Amount, deposit with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to
the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution. If a Holdback Payment Distribution is payable to the
Holders at any time pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(vi)(B) and some or all of the consideration received in respect of the
applicable Holdback Amount was non-cash consideration, the Company will, within ten (10) Business Days after the final determination
by the Independent Investment Banker of the Value of such non-cash consideration portion of the Holdback Amount in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii),
deposit with the CVR Agent cash in an amount equal to the Total Distributable Amount with respect to such Holdback Payment Distribution.
In the case of either of the preceding two sentences of this Section 2.5(e), on the date (a “Holdback Payment
Distribution Payment Date”) that is not more than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such Total Distributable
Amount, the CVR Agent will then pay to each Holder an amount equal to such Holder’s Pro Rata Payment Amount with respect to such
Total Distributable Amount in respect of such Holdback Payment Distribution by check mailed to the address of each such respective Holder
as reflected in the CVR Register, or, if agreed to by the Company with respect to any Holder who has provided the CVR Agent with wire
transfer instructions meeting the CVR Agent’s requirements, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.


 


(f)            The
Company and the CVR Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from the Total Distributable Amount
or any other amount payable to the Holders pursuant to this Agreement, such amount as the Company or the CVR Agent is required to deduct
and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax law. The Holders
will deliver to the Company and/or the CVR Agent, as applicable, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company and/or the CVR
Agent, as applicable, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company and/or the CVR Agent, as
applicable, as will permit the Company and/or the CVR Agent to determine the appropriate amount of withholding. To the extent that amounts
are so withheld are paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes
of this Agreement as having been paid to a Holder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.


 








    	 	24	 



     


    

 


(g)            The
CVR Agent shall have no duty or obligation to calculate, verify or confirm the accuracy, validity or sufficiency of any Total Distributable
Amount or any other amount under this Agreement.


 


(h)            The
Company’s and CVR Agent’s obligation to pay any Total Distributable Amount shall be conditioned on no court or other Governmental
Entity of competent jurisdiction having enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, injunction or order (whether temporary,
preliminary or permanent) that is in effect and restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits or imposes any penalty upon the payment of any
Total Distributable Amount and the payments being otherwise lawful.


 


(i)             If
the Company requests in writing to the CVR Agent, any funds comprising the cash deposited with the CVR Agent under Section 2.5(c),
Section 2.5(d) or Section 2.5(e) that remain undistributed to the Holders twelve (12) months after a CVR Payment
Date, the Final Payment Date or a Holdback Payment Distribution Payment Date, as applicable, shall be delivered to the Company by the
CVR Agent and any Holders who have not theretofore received payment in respect of such Contingent Value Rights shall thereafter look only
to the Company for payment of such amounts, subject to any applicable escheatment laws in effect from time to time. Upon delivery of such
funds to the Company, the escheatment obligations of the CVR Agent with respect to such funds shall terminate. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement, any portion of the funds provided by or on behalf of the Company to the CVR Agent that remains unclaimed
one hundred and eighty (180) days after termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.7 (or such earlier date immediately
prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity) shall, to the extent permitted
by law, become the property of the Company, free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto, subject
to any applicable escheatment laws in effect from time to time.


 


(j)             All
funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by Computershare in the performance of services
hereunder shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Company and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare
in its name as agent for the Company, and such funds shall be free of any claims by the Company other than reversionary rights and as
set forth in Section 2.5(i), and separate from any potential bankruptcy estate of the Company. Computershare shall have no responsibility
or liability for any diminution of the funds that may result from any deposit made by Computershare in accordance with this paragraph,
including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party, except as a result of Computershare’s
willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence (each as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction). Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits. Computershare
shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Company, any Holder or any other party. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, Company shall be responsible for providing Computershare with sufficient funds to satisfy its payment obligations
to the Holders.

Section 2.6.            Review
of the Independent Accountant.


 


(a)            Any
dispute arising from the delivery of a Notice of Objection pursuant to Section 2.5(b) will be settled by the Independent Accountant,
who will act as an expert, and not as an arbitrator. The Company will engage the Independent Accountant and will reasonably cooperate
with the Independent Accountant, including providing the Independent Accountant reasonable access during normal business hours and on
reasonable advance notice to relevant personnel, properties, and books and records of the Company. The Independent Accountant will limit
its review and determination to the items set forth in the Notice of Objection and to no other matters, and will deliver a written report
containing its calculations of each such disputed item. The final determination of the Independent Accountant will be made in strict accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. The Independent Accountant will render its written report resolving such items in dispute as soon as
possible after completion of written submissions to the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant will determine the items in
dispute solely based on the Notice of Objection and the written submissions made by the Company and not by independent review and the
Independent Accountant will not be permitted to question any judgment or assumption made by the Company in determining the Total Distributable
Amount in any case where a judgment or assumption is required in the calculation of the Total Distributable Amount. The costs and expenses
billed by the Independent Accountant in connection with the performance of its duties described herein shall be allocated, on the one
hand, to the Company (and shall not reduce the Total CVR Pool Amount) and, on the other hand, to the Holders (and shall be treated as
CVR Distribution Expenses, and shall reduce the Total CVR Pool Amount), in each case, on a pro rata basis based upon the degree to which
the Independent Accountant has accepted the respective positions of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders (as set forth in the
Notice of Objection), on the other hand, and such allocation shall be determined by the Independent Accountant and set forth in its final
report. The Company and each Holder will be responsible for its own attorney fees, expenses and costs. The decision of the Independent
Accountant will be final, conclusive and binding (absent manifest error) on the parties hereto and each of the Holders.


 


(b)            The
sole and exclusive remedy or recourse for any Holder under this Agreement relating to the Calculation Certificate delivered by the Company
and the determination as to whether a distribution is required to be made under this Agreement shall be to, subject to Section 2.5(d),
submit a Notice of Objection and trigger the review by the Independent Accountant pursuant to this Section 2.6.


 


Section 2.7.            Maturity
Date Extension. If the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines that the Company shall exercise its right to extend
the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.7, the Company shall exercise such right by delivering a written notice to the
CVR Agent no later than ten (10) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date stating that the Board of Directors has determined to extend
the Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date. The Company shall Make Available such notice to the Holders; provided that any
failure so to notify the Holders shall not affect the validity of such extension (it being understood that any failure so to notify the
Holders shall not excuse the CVR Agent from its obligations under this Section 2.7).


 






    	 	26	 



     


    

 


Section 2.8.            No
Voting, Dividends or Interest; No Equity or Ownership Interest in the Company; No Fiduciary Duties.


 


(a)            The
Contingent Value Rights shall not have any voting or dividend rights, and interest shall not accrue on any amounts payable regarding any
Contingent Value Rights to any Holder.


 


(b)            The
Contingent Value Rights shall not represent any equity, stock or other ownership interest in the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate
of the Company or any other Person.


 


(c)            Neither
the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries (including the CVR Holding Company), nor any of their respective officers or directors owe fiduciary
duties of any kind to the Holders.


 


Section 2.9.            Ability
to Abandon the Contingent Value Right. The Holder of a Contingent Value Right may at any time, at such Holder’s option, abandon
all of such Holder’s remaining rights in a Contingent Value Right by delivering to the CVR Agent a notice of abandonment relinquishing
such Contingent Value Right to the Company without consideration therefor, in which case such Contingent Value Right shall be deemed canceled
and no longer outstanding, and the CVR Agent shall amend the CVR Register accordingly and notify the Company in writing.


 


Article 3

Section 3.1.            Certain
Duties and Responsibilities. The CVR Agent shall not have any liability for any actions taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in
connection with this Agreement, except to the extent of its willful misconduct, fraud, , bad faith or gross negligence (each as determined
by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall
any Person be liable for any special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including
but not limited to lost profits) arising out of any act or failure to act hereunder. The aggregate liability of the CVR Agent with respect
to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement,
whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the CVR
Agent as fees, but not including reimbursable expenses, during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event for which recovery
from the CVR Agent is being sought. No provision of this Agreement shall require the CVR Agent to expend or risk its own funds, take any
action that it reasonably believes would expose or subject it to expense or liability, or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. The Company’s obligations under this
Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 shall survive the resignation or removal of any CVR Agent, the expiration of the CVRs
and the termination of this Agreement.


 






    	 	27	 



     


    

 


Section 3.2.            Certain

agents, representatives, attorneys, custodians and/or nominees and the CVR Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default,
neglect or misconduct of any such agents, representatives, attorneys, custodians and/or nominees, absent their gross negligence, bad faith
or willful or intentional misconduct (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) in the

against any and all loss, liability, obligation, damage, fine, settlement, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, disbursement, proceeding,
investigation, claim, demand or out-of-pocket expense of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket
fees and expenses of legal counsel and the reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of defending the Indemnitee against
any claim of liability arising therefrom) (collectively, “Losses”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against any Indemnitee, at any time, and in any way relating to, arising out of or in connection with the execution, delivery or performance
of this Agreement, the enforcement of any rights or remedies in connection with this Agreement, and the payment, transfer or other application
of funds pursuant to this Agreement, or as may arise by reason of any act, omission or error of the Indemnitee; provided, however,
that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to be so indemnified, defended, protected, saved or kept harmless to the extent such Loss was caused
by the willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence of any Indemnitee (each as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction);


 


(f)            in
addition to the indemnification provided under Section 3.2(e), the Company agrees (i) to pay the fees of the CVR Agent in connection
with the CVR Agent’s performance of its obligations hereunder, as set forth on a mutually agreed upon fee schedule executed by the
Company and the CVR Agent on or prior to the date hereof (the “CVR Agent Fees”), and (ii) to reimburse

or other communication, paper or document received by the CVR Agent hereunder, the CVR Agent may, in its sole discretion, refrain from
taking any action, and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Company or other Person or entity for refraining
from taking such action, unless the CVR Agent receives written instructions signed by the Company which eliminate such ambiguity or uncertainty
to the reasonable satisfaction of the CVR Agent;


 


(h)            nothing
herein shall preclude the CVR Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other Person;


 


(i)            the
CVR Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act, duty, obligation or responsibility by reason of any occurrence beyond
the control of the CVR Agent (including any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any
act of God, terrorist acts, shortage of supply, breakdowns or malfunctions, interruptions or malfunction of computer facilities, or loss
of data due to power failures or mechanical difficulties with information storage or retrieval systems or failure of any means of communication,
labor difficulties, war, civil disorder or epidemic or pandemic); provided, that the CVR Agent shall (i) use its commercially
reasonable efforts to end or mitigate the effects of any such occurrence and (ii) resume the performance of its obligations as soon
as reasonably practicable after the end of such occurrence;


 


(j)            whenever
the CVR Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a fact or matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting
any action hereunder (including the identity of a Holder), the CVR Agent may rely upon an Officer’s Certificate, and such Officer’s
Certificate shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the CVR Agent. The CVR Agent shall incur no liability for or in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it absent willful misconduct, fraud, bad faith or gross negligence (each as determined
by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance on such Officer’s
Certificate. The CVR Agent is hereby authorized and directed to accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties and
obligations hereunder from the chief executive officer, president, chief financial officer, any vice president, the controller, the treasurer
or the secretary of the Company, and to apply to such officer for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not
be liable and shall be indemnified for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in accordance with instructions from such officer.
The CVR Agent shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person, until receipt of written notice thereof from

(other than this Agreement) or any other agreement between or among the parties hereto, even though reference thereto may be made in this
Agreement, or to comply with any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document other than as expressly
set forth in this Agreement; and


 








    	 	29
