Management Company's right to receive (i) payment of the Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee, and (ii) reimbursement of Out-of-Pocket
Expenses and any amounts advanced by Management Company for the payment of Operating Expenses in connection with the operation
of the Hotel pursuant to the Approved Annual Operating Projection, this Agreement and all of the rights and benefits of Management
Company hereunder are and shall be subject and subordinate to any Qualified Loan(s) which now or hereafter encumber the Hotel.
This subordination provision shall be self-operative and no other or further instrument of subordination shall be required; Management
Company agrees, however, upon request of any Qualified Lender, duly to execute and deliver any subordination agreement requested
by such Qualified Lender to evidence and confirm the subordination effected under this Section 3.02, provided that such agreement
also reaffirms the rights of Management Company under this Agreement’s definition of “Non-Disturbance Agreement.”


 


C.           TRS
shall deliver a true copy of any Secured Loan during the Term of this Agreement to Management Company within ten (10) days after
execution thereof.


 


3.03        Foreclosure


 


A.           If
title to or possession of the Hotel is transferred by judicial or administrative process or by a non-judicial act, including without
limitation, a foreclosure, a conveyance by deed in lieu of foreclosure, a sale pursuant to an order of a bankruptcy court, a sale
by a court-appointed receiver, or similar act, proceeding, or conveyance pursuant to which a Secured Lender or other person or
legal entity shall become the owner of Hotel or the site (either fee or leasehold title, as the case may be) or any part thereof
or interest therein, or of a controlling interest in the TRS (collectively referred to as a “Foreclosure”),
the rights of Management Company under this Agreement shall not be terminated, extinguished, or interfered with, nor shall Management
Company be named or made a party to such action by any such Secured Lender (excepting only to the extent required for maintenance
of such action), and such Secured Lender, other person or legal entity (a “Foreclosure Purchaser”) shall
assume and be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Foreclosure Purchaser had been
the original TRS hereunder.


 


B.           Without
prejudice to any of its other rights under this Agreement, Management Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
(and pursue any remedies it may have hereunder), on thirty (30) days’ written notice, if title to or possession of the Hotel
is transferred as a result of a Foreclosure to a Foreclosure Purchaser which would not qualify as a permitted transferee under
Section 20.01 A, regardless of whether or not such transfer is the voluntary action of the transferring TRS, or whether (under
applicable law) the TRS is in fact the transferor; provided, however, that Management Company shall not have the right to so terminate
this Agreement based on the assertion that a Qualified Lender fails to so qualify as a permitted transferee under Section 20.01
A.


 


3.04        TRS’s
Debt Service Payments


 


All payments of principal,
interest, and other amounts required pursuant to any Secured Loan shall be paid by TRS and not from Gross Revenues. Management
Company shall not be responsible for the payment of any amounts due in connection with any Secured Loan. 



 




    	13



    	 



    

  


3.05        Financing
Disclosures


 


TRS shall not represent
to any Secured Lender that Management Company or its Affiliates (i) are or shall be in any way responsible for TRS’s obligations
under any such Secured Loan, or (ii) have made any representations, warranties, or guarantees in connection with such borrowing
unless and only to the extent as may be specifically agreed by Management Company in a writing with the Secured Lender. TRS shall
only make use of any forecasts, annual plans, or projections (collectively for purposes of this Section 3.05, “forecasts”)
prepared in TRS’s name (or the names of any of TRS’s affiliates), and in connection with any proposed financing arrangement
or loan, TRS shall indemnify Management Company from claims of reliance by any lender or other party on forecasts prepared by Management
Company.

ARTICLE V


TERM


 


5.01        Term


 


The initial term (“Initial
Term”) of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, and, unless sooner terminated as provided in this
Agreement, shall continue for a period ending on December 31 of the calendar year in which occurs the twentieth (20th)
anniversary of the Management Commencement Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that this Agreement shall terminate
if the Management Commencement Date has not occurred on or before October 1, 2014. Following the expiration of the Initial Term,
this Agreement shall, unless terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, continue in force and be automatically extended
for three (3) successive five (5)-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party provides written
notice of termination to the other at least one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the end of the then-current term.


 


5.02        Actions
to be Taken upon Termination


 


Unless otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement, the Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the rights of either party with respect to liability
or claims that accrued, or that arise out of events occurring, on or prior to the date of the Termination, or with respect to specific
rights which the Agreement provides shall survive Termination.


 




    	14



    	 



    

 


Upon a Termination of this Agreement, the
following shall be applicable:


 


A.           Termination
of this Agreement shall not be effective until all unpaid Management Fees, charges, reimbursements, and other payments due Management
Company in accordance with this Agreement as of the date of Termination shall have been paid by TRS to Management Company.


 


B.           Management
Company shall, within sixty (60) days after Termination of this Agreement, prepare and deliver to TRS a final accounting statement
with respect to the Hotel, as more particularly described in Section 9.01, along with a statement of any sums due from TRS to Management
Company pursuant hereto, dated as of the date of Termination. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt by TRS of such final accounting
statement, the parties will make whatever cash adjustments are necessary pursuant to such final statement. The cost of preparing
such final accounting statement shall be an Operating Expense, unless the Termination occurs as a result of an Event of Default
by either party, in which case the defaulting party shall pay such cost. Management Company and TRS acknowledge that there may
be certain adjustments for which the necessary information will not be available at the time of such final accounting, and the
parties agree to readjust such amounts and make the necessary cash adjustments when such information becomes available; provided,
however, that (unless there are ongoing disputes of which each party has received notice) all accounts shall be deemed final as
of one hundred eighty (180) days after such Termination.


 


C.           As
of the date of the final accounting referred to in subsection B above, Management Company shall release and transfer to TRS any
of TRS’s funds which are held or controlled by Management Company with respect to the Hotel, with the exception of funds
to be held in escrow pursuant to Section 12.04 B and Section 14.02. During the period between the date of Termination and the date
of such final accounting, Management Company shall pay (or reserve against) all Operating Expenses that accrued (but were not paid)
prior to the date of Termination, using for such purpose any Gross Revenues which accrued prior to the date of Termination.


 


D.           Management
Company shall make available to TRS such books and records respecting the Hotel (including those from prior years, subject to Management
Company’s reasonable records retention policies) as will be needed by TRS to prepare the accounting statements, in accordance
with the Uniform System of Accounts, for the Hotel for the year in which the Termination occurs and for any subsequent year. Such
books and records shall not include any Proprietary Materials.


 


E.           Management
Company shall (to the extent permitted by law) assign to TRS all operating licenses for the Hotel which have been issued in Management
Company’s name; provided that if Management Company has expended any of its own funds in the acquisition of any of such licenses,
TRS shall reimburse Management Company therefor if it has not done so already.


 




    	15



    	 



    

 


F.           TRS
agrees that Hotel reservations and any and all contracts made in connection with Hotel convention, banquet, or other group services
made by Management Company in the ordinary and normal course of business, for dates subsequent to the date of Termination and at
rates prevailing for such reservations at the time they were made, shall be honored and remain in effect after Termination of this
Agreement.


 


G.           Various
other actions shall be taken, as described in this Agreement, including but not limited to the actions described in Sections 12.04
B, 14.02, and Article XVII.


 


H.           Management
Company shall cooperate with the new operator of the Hotel to effect a smooth transition and shall peacefully vacate and surrender
the Hotel to TRS. TRS shall use its best efforts to cause such new operator to cooperate with Management Company in effecting a
smooth transition with as little hindrance to the operation of the Hotel prior to such transition as is reasonably practicable.


 


The provisions of this Section 5.02 shall
survive any Termination.


 


ARTICLE VI


COMPENSATION OF MANAGEMENT COMPANY


 


6.01        Management
Fees


 


A.           Base
Management Fees. In consideration of the services to be performed during the Term of this Agreement by Management Company,
Management Company shall be paid a periodic base management fee (“Base Management Fee”) in the amount
of four percent (4%) of Gross Revenues for each Accounting Period. Each such periodic fee
shall be paid to Management Company (or retained by Management Company as provided below) at such time as the final monthly report
for such Accounting Period is submitted to TRS as provided in Section 6.02 A below.


 


B.           Incentive
Management Fees. In addition to the Base Management Fee and in consideration of the services to be performed during the Term
of this Agreement, Management Company shall be paid for each Fiscal Year (or partial Fiscal Year), subject to Section 6.02 B, an
incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”) equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the amount by which Operating
Profit for such Fiscal Year (or partial Fiscal Year) exceeds TRS's Priority (prorated for any partial Fiscal Year). Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, Management Company shall not be entitled to receive any Incentive Fee in any Fiscal Year with respect
to which the distributions to TRS have not equaled or exceeded TRS's Priority.


 


6.02        Accounting
and Interim Payment


 


A.           Within
twenty (20) days after the close of each Accounting Period, Management Company shall submit an accounting to TRS showing Gross
Revenues, Operating Expenses, Operating Profit, and distributions thereof for such Accounting Period. Management Company shall
retain any periodic Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee due Management Company and, after taking into account the Working Capital
needs of the Hotel in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall transfer to TRS with each accounting any Operating Profit
or other sums then available for distribution to TRS. In addition to the periodic Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee, Management
Company shall be entitled to retain to pay or reimburse itself from the Operating Accounts Out-of-Pocket Expenses and any amounts
advanced by Management Company for the payment of Operating Expenses or other amounts in accordance with this Agreement.


 




    	16



    	 



    

 


B.           The
calculation and payment of the Management Fees and the distribution of Operating Profit made with respect to each Accounting Period
within a Fiscal Year shall be accounted for cumulatively. Within sixty (60) days after the close of each Fiscal Year, Management
Company shall submit an accounting (as more fully described in Section 9.01) for such Fiscal Year to TRS, which accounting shall
be controlling over the interim accountings. Any adjustments required for such Fiscal Year by such final accounting shall be made
promptly by the parties.


 


6.03        Performance
Termination


 


A.              TRS shall have
the right to terminate this Agreement if:


 


(i) the Hotel fails to
achieve Operating Profit equal to or greater than ninety percent (90.0%) of the Operating Profit estimated in the Approved
Annual Operating Projection (the “Profit Minimum”) in each of two (2) consecutive Fiscal Years (each
2-consecutive Fiscal Year period being a “Test Period”), excluding any initial partial Fiscal Year and
the first full Fiscal Year after the Management Commencement Date; and


 


(ii) the Hotel fails
to maintain ninety percent (90.0%) of the fair market share of revenue per available room (the “RevPar Threshold”)
for the Hotel’s Competitive Set during the same Test Period as reported by Smith Travel Research (or similar reporting service
in the event that Smith Travel Research reports are no longer available); and


 


(iii) the fact that Management
Company is failing to meet the tests set forth in (i) and (ii) above is not the result of (a) Force Majeure, (b) any major renovation
of the Hotel, or (c) assessments or tax bills from governmental taxing authorities in excess of amounts included for such assessments
or tax bills in the Approved Annual Operating Projection (Management Company and TRS shall in good faith mutually agree in writing
upon appropriate adjustments to the Hotel’s Competitive Set that may be necessary from time to time and/or as a result of
any such incidence for purposes of determining whether Management Company has failed to achieve the RevPar Threshold); and


 


(iv) the TRS is not in
Default at the time that it seeks to terminate the Management Agreement pursuant to this Section.


 




    	17



    	 



    

 


B.           TRS’s
option to terminate shall be exercised by delivering Termination Notice to Management Company within sixty (60) days of TRS’s
receipt of the Annual Operating Statement for the second Fiscal Year of the respective Test Period (time being of the essence);
TRS shall have waived its right to so terminate for a given Test Period if TRS fails to deliver Termination Notice to Management
Company within the 60-day time period. Upon receipt of the Termination Notice, Management Company shall have the right but not
the obligation to cure any such failure to achieve Operating Profit equal to the Profit Minimum for a Fiscal Year during the Test
Period by paying to TRS the difference between Operating Profit for either of the Fiscal Years in the Test Period and the Profit
Minimum within thirty (30) days of Management Company’s receipt of the Termination Notice. Any Fiscal Year for which a cure
payment is made shall not be included in any subsequent Test Period. Any cure payment by Management Company shall not be included
in the calculation of Gross Revenues. If Management Company exercises its option to make a cure payment, then TRS’s election
to terminate this Agreement shall be cancelled and of no force or effect with respect to the particular Test Period. Such cancellation,
however, shall not affect the right of TRS as to each subsequent Test Period to again elect to terminate this Agreement pursuant
to this Section 6.03. If Management Company does not cure, as described above, this Agreement shall terminate in accordance with
the Termination Notice.


 


C.           Failure
of the Hotel to meet the performance tests described in this Section 6.03 shall not be deemed a Default or Event of Default under
this Agreement.


 


D.           For
purposes of this Section 6.03, the Hotel’s “Competitive Set” shall mean the following group
of hotels: Hilton Providence; Marriott Providence Downtown; Providence Biltmore Hotel; Wyndham Garden Hotel Providence India Point.
TRS and Management Company, acting in good faith, shall agree upon a replacement hotel to be included in the Competitive Set during
the Term of this Agreement, as may be reasonably necessary, if (i) any hotel then currently in the Hotel’s Competitive Set
is no longer operating at a level substantially equivalent to the service and quality prevailing at the other hotels in the Competitive
Set, or (ii) the unavailability of sufficient funding (whether from the Reserve or TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures) at the Hotel
results in the then current condition and quality of the Hotel’s elements to be at a competitive disadvantage to other hotels
in the Competitive Set (it being understood that subsequent improvements of the condition and quality of the Hotel’s elements
would result in reasonable adjustment to the Competitive Set to accurately reflect the Hotel’s placement in the appropriate
Competitive Set), or (iii) information with respect to such hotel is no longer available through Smith Travel Research, or similar
reporting service in the event that Smith Travel Research reports are no longer available.


 


ARTICLE VII


WORKING CAPITAL AND FIXED ASSET SUPPLIES


 


7.01       Working
Capital and Inventories


 


A.           At
the Management Commencement Date, TRS shall provide to Management Company the funds necessary to supply the Hotel with Working
Capital and Inventories in a minimum amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) per guest room and shall at all times thereafter
maintain in the Hotel's Operating Accounts a minimum balance in the amount of $216,000 (or, if necessary, such greater amount to
assure the uninterrupted and efficient operation of the Hotel, including, without limitation, sufficient funds to pay budgeted
current liabilities as they fall due and to replace Inventories as they are consumed) in accordance with the provisions of subsection
B below. Working Capital so advanced shall remain the property of TRS throughout the Term of this Agreement, and Management Company
shall make no claim thereto.


 




    	18



    	 



    

 


B.           If
at any time Management Company reasonably determines that Working Capital is less than the amount required to be maintained under
Section 7.01 A above or available funds in the Operating Accounts (excluding for purposes of this Section 7.01 B, the Reserve)
are insufficient to allow for the uninterrupted and efficient operation of the Hotel in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
Management Company shall notify TRS in writing of the existence and amount of such shortfall (a “Funds Request”)
and TRS shall deposit the amount stated in the Funds Request into the Operating Accounts within three (3) days after TRS’s
receipt of the Funds Request.


 


7.02       Fixed
Asset Supplies


 


TRS shall provide such
funds as Management Company may reasonably determine to be necessary to supply the Hotel with Fixed Asset Supplies. Fixed Asset
Supplies shall at all times be owned by, and be the sole property of, TRS, and Management Company shall make no claim thereto.


 


ARTICLE VIII


MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT AND CHANGES


 


8.01       Routine
Repairs and Maintenance


 


From and after the
Management Commencement Date, Management Company shall maintain the Hotel in good repair and condition and in conformity with applicable
laws and regulations and in accordance with the Franchisor’s standards for the operation of the Hotel, and shall make or
cause to be made such routine maintenance, repairs, and minor alterations, the cost of which can be expensed under generally accepted
accounting principles, as Management Company, from time to time, deems necessary for such purposes. The cost of such maintenance,
repairs, and alterations shall be paid from Gross Revenues and shall be treated as an Operating Expense in determining Operating
Profit. The cost of non-routine repairs and maintenance, either to the Hotel building or its fixtures, furniture, furnishings,
and equipment (“FF&E”), shall be paid for in the manner described in Sections 8.02 and 8.03.


 


8.02       Repairs
and Equipment Reserve


 


A.           Management
Company shall establish, in respect of each Fiscal Year from and after the Management Commencement Date, a reserve escrow account
in the name of TRS (“Reserve”) in a bank approved by TRS. All disbursements and withdrawals from the
Reserve shall be made by representatives of Management Company whose signatures have been authorized. The Reserve shall be in an
amount equal to the greater of: (i) four percent (4%) of Gross Revenues; or (ii) the amount required under the Franchise Agreement
for the Hotel or by any Qualified Lender. The Reserve shall be held in a bank, savings and loan association, or other financial
institution designated by TRS to cover cost of:


 




    	19



    	 



    

 


(i)          Replacements
and renewals to the Hotel's FF&E; and


 


(ii)         Certain
non-routine repairs and maintenance to the Hotel building which are normally capitalized under generally accepted accounting principles,
such as exterior and interior repainting, resurfacing building walls, floors, roofs and parking areas, and replacing folding walls
and the like, but which are not major repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, or replacements to the Hotel building's structure
or to its mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing, or vertical transportation systems, the cost
of which are TRS's sole responsibility under Section 8.03.


 


B.           All
amounts from time to time in the Reserve, and all interest thereon, shall at all times be owned by, and be the exclusive property
of, TRS, and Management Company shall make no claim thereto. Proceeds from the sale of FF&E no longer necessary for the operation
of the Hotel shall be deposited in the Reserve, as shall any interest which accrues on amounts placed in the Reserve. Neither (i)
proceeds from the disposition of FF&E, nor (ii) interest which accrues on amounts held in the Reserve shall (x) result in any
reduction in the required contributions to the Reserve set forth in 8.02 A above, or (y) be included in Gross Revenues. Management
Company shall provide to TRS each month a copy of the bank statement relating to the Reserve and a reconciliation of such Reserve
account.


 


C.           Management
Company shall prepare an estimate (“FF&E Estimate”) of the expenditures necessary during the ensuing
Fiscal Year for (i) replacement and renewal of the Hotel FF&E and (ii) building repairs of the nature contemplated by Section
8.02 A 2, and shall submit such FF&E Estimate to TRS for TRS's review and approval at the same time it submits the Preliminary
Annual Operating Projection described in Section 9.03.


 


D.           Management
Company shall from time to time make such substitutions and replacements of or renewals to FF&E and repairs to the Hotel of
the nature described in Section 8.02 A 2, as are provided for in the FF&E Estimate approved for such Fiscal Year by TRS pursuant
to Section 8.02 C, provided that Management Company shall not expend more than the balance in the Reserve without the prior approval
of TRS. Management Company will endeavor to follow the applicable FF&E Estimate, but shall be entitled to depart therefrom
(but not exceeding the Reserve balance), in its reasonable discretion, provided that (a) such departures from the FF&E Estimate
result from circumstances which could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time of the submission of such FF&E Estimate;
and (b) such departures from the FF&E Estimate result from circumstances which require prompt repair and/or replacement; and
(c) Management Company has submitted to TRS a revised FF&E Estimate setting forth and explaining such departures. At the end
of each Fiscal Year, any amounts then remaining in the Reserve shall be carried forward to the next Fiscal Year.


 




    	20



    	 



    

 


E.           If
any FF&E Estimate which is prepared for a given Fiscal Year would require funding in excess of the percentage of Gross Revenues
which is required under Section 8.02A, TRS may either (i) agree to increase the percentage of Gross Revenues up to the level set
forth in such FF&E Estimate, in order to provide the additional funds required, such increases to be treated as Operating Expenses;
or (ii) make a lump-sum contribution to the Reserve in the necessary amount, in which case such contribution plus interest (at
Prime Rate plus one percentage point per annum) shall be reimbursed to TRS from Gross Revenues in equal installments over a period
of time mutually agreed upon by TRS and Management Company, and such installment repayments shall be Operating Expenses. If TRS
elects not to agree to either option for excess funding of the Reserve, Management Company shall be entitled, at its option, to
terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to TRS; however, such failure by TRS shall not be deemed a
Default by TRS unless such failure to provide excess funding will cause a default under the Franchise Agreement.


 


8.03        Building
Alterations, Improvements, Renewals and Replacements


 


A.           Management
Company shall prepare an annual estimate (“Capital Expenditures Estimate”) of the expenses necessary
for major repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, and replacements (which repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, and
replacements are not routine maintenance, repairs, and alterations charged to the Reserve in accordance with the Uniform System
of Accounts) to the structural, mechanical, electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing, and vertical transportation
elements of the Hotel building (“TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures”) and shall submit such Capital Expenditures
Estimate to TRS for its approval at the same time the Preliminary Annual Operating Projection described in Section 9.03 is submitted.
Management Company shall not make any TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures without the prior written consent of TRS except to the extent
such expenditures are: (i) required by any law (including, without limitation, any law, ordinance, code, or regulation of any governmental
authority or agency having jurisdiction over the business or operation of the Hotel); or (ii) required under the Franchise Agreement;
or (iii) otherwise required to avoid the risk of harm or further damage to persons or property.


 


B.           The
cost of all TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures shall be borne solely by TRS and shall not be paid from Gross Revenues or from the
Reserve. The failure of TRS to provide funding for any TRS-Funded Capital Expenditure described in clause (i), (ii), or (iii) of
Section 8.03 A shall be a Default by TRS, and Management Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement (along
with other remedies it may have under this Agreement).


 


8.04        Liens


 


Management Company
and TRS shall use their best efforts to prevent any liens from being filed against the Hotel which arise from any maintenance,
changes, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals, or replacements in or to the Hotel. They shall cooperate fully in obtaining
the release of any such liens, and the cost thereof shall be treated the same as the cost incurred pursuant to Section 8.03 (except
that if the lien was occasioned by the fault of one of the parties then the cost of releasing said lien shall be borne by such
party).


 




    	21



    	 



    

 


8.05        Ownership
of Replacements


 


All changes, repairs, alterations, improvements,
renewals, or replacements to the Hotel made pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the property of TRS.


 


ARTICLE IX


BOOKKEEPING AND OPERATING ACCOUNTS


 


9.01        Books
and Records


 


Books of control and
account shall be kept on the accrual basis and in material respects in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts, with the
exceptions provided in this Agreement. TRS may, at reasonable intervals during Management Company's normal business hours, examine
such records. Within sixty (60) days following the close of each Fiscal Year, Management Company shall furnish TRS a statement
(the “Annual Operating Statement”) in reasonable detail summarizing the Hotel operations for such Fiscal
Year and a certificate of Management Company's chief accounting officer certifying that such year-end statement is true and correct
to the best of his or her knowledge and belief. If TRS raises no objections within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Annual
Operating Statement, the Annual Operating Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by TRS. If TRS does raise any such objection,
TRS shall arrange for an independent audit to be commenced within sixty (60) days after the date of such objection, and shall diligently
cause such audit to be completed within a reasonable period of time. TRS shall pay all costs of such audit at its sole expense
(and not as an Operating Expense); however, if such audit establishes that Management Company has understated Operating Profit
for that Fiscal Year by seven percent (7%) or more, the reasonable costs and expenses of such audit shall be paid as an Operating
Expense.


 


9.02        Hotel
Accounts: Expenditures


 


A.           All
funds derived from the operation of the Hotel shall belong to and be the property of TRS and shall be deposited by Management Company
in bank accounts established by Management Company in Management Company’s name as agent for TRS in one or more banks approved
by TRS (the “Operating Accounts”). For purposes of this Section 9.02, Operating Accounts shall include
the Reserve. All disbursements and withdrawals from the Operating Accounts as required or permitted under this Agreement (e.g.,
the payment of all Operating Expenses and the distribution of Operating Profit) shall be made by bonded representatives of Management
Company whose signatures have been authorized. Reasonable petty cash funds and house banks, in amounts satisfactory to TRS, shall
be maintained at the Hotel.


 




    	22



    	 



    

 


B.           All
payments to be made by Management Company hereunder shall be made from the Operating Accounts, from petty cash funds, or from Working
Capital provided by TRS pursuant to Section 7.01. Debts and liabilities incurred by Management Company as a result of its operation
and management of the Hotel pursuant to the terms hereof, whether asserted before or after Termination, will be paid by TRS to
the extent funds are not available for that purpose from Gross Revenues. Management Company shall not be required to make any advance
or payment to or for the account of TRS except out of such funds, and Management Company shall not be obligated to incur any liability
or obligation for TRS's account unless TRS shall have furnished sufficient funds for the discharge of such liability or obligation.


 


C.           Neither
party shall borrow money in the name of or pledge the credit of the other. In no event shall Management Company be required to
pledge its own credit for any reason in connection with services rendered under this Agreement.


 


D.           All
Operating Accounts shall be owned by TRS and shall be solely controlled and operated by Management Company as the agent of TRS;
the agency status of Management Company shall be designated on the checks and drafts drawn on such Operating Accounts.


 


9.03        Annual
Operating Projection


 


A.           On
or before the first day of December of each Fiscal Year, a preliminary draft of the budget (“Preliminary Annual Operating
Projection”), setting forth Management Company's reasonable estimate, based on assumptions believed by Management
Company to be reasonable at the time of preparation of the Preliminary Annual Operating Projection, of Gross Revenues, Operating
Expenses, and Operating Profit for the forthcoming Fiscal Year for the Hotel, shall be prepared by Management Company and submitted
to TRS for its review and approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). If TRS does not approve
the Preliminary Annual Operating Projection in full, within thirty (30) days of its receipt, TRS shall notify Management Company
of each category of expenses (a “Category”) of which TRS does not approve and include a reasonably detailed
explanation of any such objection. The Preliminary Annual Operating Projection thereafter shall be revised as TRS and Management
Company may agree, and shall, upon TRS’s approval, constitute the approved Annual Operating Projection (“Approved
Annual Operating Projection”) for the forthcoming Fiscal Year. In the event that TRS does not notify Management Company
in writing within said 30-day review period that it does not approve of specified Categories, the Preliminary Annual Operating
Projection shall constitute the Approved Annual Operating Projection for the forthcoming Fiscal Year. The approval of TRS shall
not be required with respect to any Category if, and to the extent that, the Preliminary Annual Operating Projection with respect
to such Category for a given Fiscal Year is, in all material respects, the same as the Approved Annual Operating Projection for
the preceding Fiscal Year with adjustments for inflation.


 




    	23



    	 



    

 


B.           If
TRS and Management Company fail to mutually agree on any given Category or Categories in the Preliminary Annual Operating Projection
within forty-five (45) days after the submission to TRS of the preliminary draft described in the first sentence of 9.03 A, Management
Company shall continue to manage and operate the Hotel as follows until such agreement is reached: (i) with respect to each Category
in such Preliminary Annual Operating Projection which has been approved or deemed approved by TRS, Management Company may make
expenditures and incur obligations under such Category as so approved; and (ii) with respect to any Category which has not been
approved by TRS, Management Company may continue to make expenditures and incur obligations under such Category in accordance with
the amounts provided for such Category in the Approved Annual Operating Projection for the prior Fiscal Year, with adjustments
for inflation and with such additional adjustments therein as shall be necessary to take into account: (x) any differences
in occupancy which may be experienced in the current Fiscal Year as compared to the prior Fiscal Year; and (y) any increased costs
beyond the control of Management Company for the same or comparable services or products.


 


C.           Management
Company shall, from time to time during each Fiscal Year as it deems appropriate, suggest revisions to the Approved Annual Operating
Projection for TRS's review and approval; each party will at all times give good faith consideration to the other party’s
suggestions regarding revisions to the Approved Annual Operating Projection. Management Company will use commercially reasonable
and diligent efforts to achieve the goals reflected in the Approved Annual Operating Projection; however, the same cannot be relied
upon as a guarantee, representation, warranty, or assurance of actual results that may be experienced during and for such Fiscal
Year. Management Company shall not, except as provided in Sections 8.03 A, 9.03 B and 9.03 D, depart from the Approved Annual Operating
Projection, or make any expenditures or incur any expenses not provided for therein, without TRS's prior approval.


 


D.           TRS
and Management Company acknowledge that the Approved Annual Operating Projection is an estimate only and that unforeseen circumstances
such as, but not limited to, the costs of labor, materials, services and supplies, casualty, operation of law, or economic and
market conditions may make adherence to the Approved Annual Operating Projection impracticable for certain Categories. The Category
under which any expenditure or obligation falls shall be determined in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts.


 


9.04        Operating
Deficits


 


If Management Company
should anticipate any Operating Loss for any Accounting Period, Management Company shall immediately so advise TRS in writing,
setting forth the estimated amount of such deficiency and an explanation or justification therefor.

ARTICLE XI


POSSESSION AND USE OF HOTEL


 


11.01     
Use


 


A.           TRS
covenants that, so long as an Event of Default by Management Company has not occurred and TRS has not exercised any right to terminate
this Agreement (under any Section of this Agreement), Management Company shall have the right to quietly hold, occupy, and enjoy
the Hotel throughout the Term hereof free from hindrance or ejection by TRS or other party claiming under, through, or by right
of TRS, except as may otherwise be specified in this Agreement.

of a withdrawal or revocation, by any lawful governing body having jurisdiction thereof, of any material license or permit required
for Management Company's performance hereunder, if such withdrawal or revocation is due to circumstances beyond Management Company's
control; provided, that Management Company shall not be permitted to exercise such option to terminate until such time as TRS (which
agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts) shall have arranged for a replacement manager for the Hotel satisfactory to and
approved by the Franchisor under the Franchise Agreement. Such termination shall be effective as of the date such replacement manager
has commenced management of the Hotel pursuant to its agreement with TRS.


 


11.02      TRS's
Right to Inspect


 


TRS or its agent shall
have access to the Hotel at any and all times and shall endeavor in good faith to provide at least 24 hours’ notice to Management

11.03      Centralized
Services


 


A.           In
operating the Hotel for the benefit of TRS, there may be, from time to time, opportunities to provide some services on a centralized
or shared basis (“Centralized Services”) which would otherwise be provided separately for or at the Hotel.
Pursuant to the Approved Annual Operating Projection, TRS shall reimburse Management Company for any such Centralized Services
as may from time to time be provided to the Hotel by Management Company or Management Company’s Affiliates more efficiently
on a group or centralized basis rather than on an individual basis. The Centralized Services shall include, without limitation,
the following: (a) marketing, advertising and promotion; (b) payroll processing, accounting, and MIS support services; (c)
revenue management, (d) recruiting, training, career development, and relocation in accordance with Management Company's or its
Affiliates’ relocation plan; (e) Employee Benefits administration; (f) engineering and risk management; (g) information technology;
(h) legal support (such as license and permit coordination and standardized contracts); (i) purchasing arising out of ordinary
hotel operations; and (j) such other additional services which are or may be, from time to time, furnished for the benefit of Management
Company’s or its Affiliates’ hotels or in substitution (and without duplication) of services now performed at Management
Company’s or its Affiliates’ individual hotels which may be more efficiently performed on a group or centralized basis.


 


B.           The
costs of Centralized Services shall consist of the actual cost of the services without mark-up or profit to Management Company
or any Affiliates, but shall include: (a) Employee Benefit costs; (b) cost of equipment used in performing Centralized Services;
and (c) overhead costs, reasonably allocated thereto of any office providing Centralized Services. Costs and expenses incurred
in providing Centralized Services shall be allocated in the manner described in the Approved Annual Operating Projection and on
a fair and equitable basis among all hotels receiving any such Centralized Services; the costs and expenses for Centralized Services
shall not exceed the amounts for such services set forth in the Approved Annual Operating Projection. Costs of Centralized Services
shall be an Operating Expense. In addition, if equipment is installed and maintained at the Hotel in connection with the rendition
of any Centralized Services, all costs thereof will be charged to the operation of the Hotel, as determined by Management Company
in good faith and consistent with GAAP and the Uniform System of Accounts.


 


C.           Except
to the extent of any delegation of rights and obligations under Section 19.01 A of this Agreement, in no event shall Management
Company's Affiliates be deemed a party to this Agreement or responsible in any way for Management Company's obligations pursuant
to this Agreement by virtue of providing any services described in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Centralized Services)
to Management Company and TRS reimbursing Management Company for the expenses incurred in connection therewith.

of Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000);


 




    	27

12.02      General
Insurance Provisions


 


All policies of insurance
required under Section 12.01, Paragraphs 1-4 shall be carried in the name of Management Company and/or its Affiliates. The TRS

Affiliates may self insure or otherwise retain such risks or portions thereof as it does with respect to other similar hotels it
owns, leases or manages.


 


12.04      Cost
and Expense


 


A.           Insurance
premiums and any costs or expenses with respect to the insurance described in Section 12.01 shall be Operating Expenses in determining
Operating Profit.


 


B.           Upon
Termination of this Agreement, an escrow fund in an amount reasonably acceptable to Management Company shall be established from
Gross Revenues (or, if Gross Revenues are not sufficient, with funds provided by TRS) to cover the amount of any costs which will
eventually have to be paid by either TRS or Management Company with respect to insurance premiums, if any, not fully billed and
paid for prior to Termination and pending or contingent claims, including those which arise after such Termination for causes arising
during the Term of this Agreement. Upon the final disposition of all such pending or contingent claims, any unexpended funds remaining

    	28



    	 



    

 


B.           All

that such policy shall not be canceled, non-renewed or to the extent reasonably commercially available, materially changed without
at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to TRS and Management Company.


 


C.           TRS
must participate in the coverage obtained by Management Company and/or its Affiliates specified in Section 12.01, Paragraphs 5
through 9. However, TRS may, at its option, procure and maintain the insurance specified in Section 12.01, Paragraphs 1 through
4, with insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Management Company and/or its Affiliates, subject to the following: (i) all
such policies of insurance shall be carried in the name of TRS, with Management Company and/or its Affiliates as a named insured;
(ii) any property losses thereunder shall be payable to the respective parties as their interests may appear; (iii) premiums for
such insurance coverage shall be treated as Operating Expenses, provided that if the cost of such insurance procured by TRS exceeds
the cost of Management Company’s and/or its Affiliates’ comparable coverage, such excess costs shall be the sole responsibility
of TRS and shall not be an Operating Expense; and (iv) any business interruption insurance placed by TRS shall include coverage
for Management Company’s and/or its Affiliates’ potential lost management fees. Should TRS exercise its option to procure
the insurance described in this subsection C, TRS hereby waives its rights of recovery from Management Company and/or its Affiliates
(and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents and employees) for loss or damage to the Hotel and any resultant
interruption of business.


 


12.06      Indemnification


 


A.           TRS
shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Management Company, its Affiliates (to the extent that any such Affiliate has Harms
arising in connection with the Hotel) its upstream ownership entities, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders,
employees, and agents (collectively, “Management Company Indemnified Parties”), from and against all
claims, causes of action, losses, attorneys’ fees, and other costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, liquidated
damages, transfer fees, and termination costs), liabilities, and damages (collectively referred to as “Harms”)
imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against the Management Company Indemnified Parties under, on account of, or with respect
to this Agreement arising out of or resulting from: (i) Management Company's or its Affiliates’ performance of this
Agreement, including without limitation Harms arising from its day-to-day operation of the Hotel (but excepting Harms to the extent
Management Company is obligated to indemnify TRS with respect thereto under Section 12.06 C, below); or (ii) the failure by
TRS to (x) provide necessary funds to the Reserve; or (y) make necessary TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures required under this
Agreement; or (z) comply with applicable Legal Requirements or any requirements imposed by the Franchisor in accordance with the
Franchise Agreement or necessary to maintain the safety or structural soundness of the Hotel. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, TRS shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Management Company Indemnified Parties from and against all Harms
imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against the Management Company Indemnified Parties, including without limitation Harms
under or with respect to the Franchise Agreement, which arise as a result of: (a) any default by TRS under the terms of this
Agreement or the Franchise Agreement (or related agreements entered into by TRS in connection with the Franchise Agreement) unless
such default is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Management Company and/or its Affiliates; (b) the transfer
by TRS of the Hotel or any interest of TRS in the Hotel; or (c) the failure by TRS to provide necessary funds to the Reserve or
make necessary TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures required to comply with applicable Legal Requirements or any requirements imposed
by the Franchisor in accordance with the Franchise Agreement or necessary to maintain the safety or structural soundness of the
Hotel. Any amounts paid by TRS under this 12.06 A shall be paid from TRS’s funds (not from Gross Revenues or from the Reserve)
and shall not be treated as Operating Expenses.


 




    	29



    	 



    

 


B.           TRS
shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Management Company Indemnified Parties from and against all Harms arising out of
or resulting from all liabilities which accrued (or which stem from events which occurred) prior to the Management Commencement
Date (referred to as “Prior Liabilities”). Any Prior Liabilities shall be paid for by TRS (not from Gross
Revenues or from the Reserve) and shall not be treated as Operating Expenses.


 


C.           Management
Company and/or its Affiliates shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TRS and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees,
and agents from and against all Harms to the extent that such Harm arises out of or results from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Management Company and/or its Affiliates. Any amounts paid by Management Company under this 12.06 C shall be paid
from Management Company’s funds (not from Gross Revenues or from the Reserve) and shall not be treated as Operating Expenses.


 


D.           The
provisions of this Section 12.06 shall survive Termination of this Agreement.


 


ARTICLE XIII


REAL ESTATE AND PROPERTY TAXES


 


13.01      Impositions


 


During the Term of
the Agreement all real estate or ad valorem property taxes, assessments, inventory and personal property taxes and similar charges
on or relating to the Hotel (collectively, “Impositions”) following or allocable to the period following
the Management Commencement Date shall be paid by Management Company, to the extent sufficient Working Capital exists, from Gross
Revenues before any fines, penalties, or interest are added thereto or liens are placed upon the Hotel, unless payment is in good
faith being contested and enforcement thereof is stayed. Management Company, either in its own name or, if legally required, in
TRS's name, may contest by appropriate proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence the amount, validity or application
in whole or in part of any such Imposition or any lien therefor, and TRS shall have the right to participate in any such proceedings.
In the event Gross Revenues are likely to be insufficient to pay such Impositions when due, Management Company shall so advise
TRS no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date of such Impositions in order to provide TRS sufficient time in which to
provide funds sufficient for the payment of such Impositions. Management Company shall also, no later than thirty (30) days prior
to the date payment is due or three (3) days following the written request from TRS, furnish TRS with copies of official tax bills
and assessments and evidence of payment or contest thereof. Any refund or rebate of any Impositions shall be credited to Operating
Profit in the Fiscal Year in which such refund is received. All reasonable costs incurred in connection with any such negotiations
or proceedings shall constitute an Operating Expense for the year in which they are paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such
contest shall be conducted if it will in any way endanger title to the Hotel, the land on which the Hotel is located, or TRS's
interest in the Hotel, or create a cloud on title to any of the foregoing or constitute a default under any financing secured by
the Hotel. TRS shall within thirty (30) days of receipt of evidence of payment or contest furnish Management Company with copies
of official tax bills and assessments and of payment or contest thereof. All Impositions shall constitute an Operating Expense
from Gross Revenues in determining Operating Profit, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that any
fines, penalties, or interest added thereto to the extent resulting from TRS’s acts or omissions shall be paid by TRS at
its sole expense.


 




    	30



    	 



    

 


13.02      TRS’s
Responsibility


 


“Impositions”
shall not include the following, all of which shall be paid solely by TRS, not from Gross Revenues nor from the Reserve: (1) Any
income, excess profits, or revenue taxes of TRS or any person, firm, or entity as a partner of TRS; (2) Special assessments imposed
because of facilities which are constructed by or on behalf of the assessing jurisdiction (e.g., roads, sidewalks, sewers, etc.)
which directly benefit the Hotel; (3) “Impact Fees” which are required of TRS as a condition to the issuance
of site plan approval, zoning variances, or building permits; and (4) “Tax-increment financing” or similar financing
whereby the municipality or other taxing authority has assisted in financing the construction of the Hotel by temporarily reducing
or abating normal Impositions in return for substantially higher levels of Impositions at later dates.


 


ARTICLE XIV


HOTEL EMPLOYEES


 


14.01      Employees


 


A.           Management
Company shall have the discretion and obligation to hire, promote, supervise, direct, and train all employees at the Hotel (collectively,
“Hotel Employees”), to fix their terms of compensation, and generally to establish and maintain policies
relating to employment at the Hotel. All Hotel Employees shall at all times be the employees of Management Company and not of TRS,
and TRS shall have no responsibility or control respecting such employees unless otherwise specified in this Agreement. If the
Hotel’s Operating Accounts are at any time insufficient to pay Employee Benefits, including without limitation, the salaries,
incentives, or other compensation payable to Hotel Employees, TRS shall be obligated to fund any such Employee Benefits prior to
the respective payroll period. No collective bargaining agreements will be signed without TRS's and Management Company’s
approval. Management Company shall inform TRS as to the name, background, and qualifications of the Hotel's General Manager. If
Management Company desires to change the General Manager, Management Company shall endeavor to give TRS at least forty-five (45)
days’ prior notice, if feasible, of such change stating the reasons for such change and informing TRS of the name, background,
and qualifications of any replacement General Manager. TRS shall have the right to interview the proposed replacement General Manager
and shall be given the opportunity to meet with the appropriate senior executives of Management Company to discuss the advisability
of effectuating any proposed hiring, dismissal, or transfer and any possible alternatives thereto. Management Company shall consider
in good faith the opinions and requests of TRS with respect to such matters, and, if Management Company elects not to implement
any such request, Management Company shall explain its decision to TRS in reasonable detail.


 




    	31



    	 



    

 


B.           TRS
shall reimburse Management Company for: (i) salaries, wages, and/or benefits of any officers, directors, or employees of Management
Company or Management Company’s Affiliates who shall be employed regularly or temporarily or assigned on a full-time basis
at the Hotel; and (ii) personnel of Management Company or Management Company’s Affiliates not employed at the Hotel providing
information systems support or legal, accounting, or tax services to Management Company in connection with the operation of the
Hotel (without duplication of reimbursements included in Centralized Services). All costs and expenses described under this subsection
B shall be Operating Expenses and not exceed the amount for such services set forth in the Approved Annual Operating Projection
without the approval of TRS.


 


C.           Management
Company and TRS agree to cooperate with each other to attempt to avoid any disqualification of qualified employee benefit plans
of either of them to the extent such plans may be affected by the provisions of this Agreement or the services provided hereunder;
provided, however, that neither Management Company nor TRS shall be required to change the terms of any such plan as part of such
cooperation.


 


D.           All
personnel employed at the Hotel shall be recruited and trained by Management Company in a manner consistent with Management Company's
practices at other comparable hotels managed and operated by Management Company.


 


E.           Neither
TRS nor Management Company shall directly or indirectly solicit, employ, or hire any employees of the other party without the other
party’s consent during the Term of this Agreement and continuing for a period of one year following the Termination of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, either party may use an independent employment agency or advertisements
to make general solicitations for employment, provided that the other party’s employees are not targeted specifically.


 




    	32



    	 



    

 


14.02      Termination


 


At Termination, other
than by reason of an Event of Default by Management Company hereunder, an escrow fund shall be established from Gross Revenues
(or, if Gross Revenues are not sufficient, with funds provided by TRS) to reimburse Management Company for (i) all costs and expenses
incurred by Management Company which arise out of either the transfer or the termination of employment of Management Company’s
employees at the Hotel, such as reasonable transfer costs, unemployment compensation, other employee liability costs (including
without limitation costs incurred pursuant to the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1990 (as amended, the “WARN
Act”)); (ii) to pay Employee Benefits as of the Termination date; and (iii)  a reasonable allowance for severance
pay for Executive Employees (as defined below) of the Hotel who do not continue to be employed with respect to the Hotel and who
will not be transferred to another hotel owned or managed by Management Company. The amount of such allowance for severance shall
not exceed an amount equal to Management Company’s then-current severance benefit for such terminated Executive Employees,
unless TRS otherwise approves. As used herein, the term “Executive Employees” shall mean each member
of the senior executive staff and each department head of the Hotel.


 


14.03      Employee
Claims


 


Management Company
shall pay from its own funds, and not from Gross Revenues, for any Employee Claim and for the defense of any Employee Claim which
is proven to have arisen as the result of: (i) a clear, substantial, and continuing violation of the standards of responsible labor
relations as generally practiced by prudent owners or operators of similar hotel properties in the general geographic area of the
Hotel, and (ii) action or inaction that is not the isolated act of individual employees, but rather is a direct result of corporate
policies of Management Company which either encourage or fail to discourage such conduct. In addition, Management Company shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TRS from and against any fines or judgments arising out of such conduct, and all litigation
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection therewith. Any dispute between TRS and
Management Company as to whether or not certain conduct by Management Company is not in accordance with the aforesaid standards
shall be resolved by arbitration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Management Company shall not be deemed
to be in breach of any provision of this Agreement or liable for any Employee Claim by reason of any act or omission of any Hotel
Employee unless such act or omission resulted directly from the actions described in clause (i) or (ii) in this Section 14.03.


 


ARTICLE XV


DAMAGE AND CONDEMNATION


 


15.01      Damage
and Repair


 


A.           If,
during the Term hereof, the Hotel is damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty, or other cause, TRS shall, with all reasonable diligence,
to the extent that proceeds from the insurance described in Section 12.01 are available (subject to the provisions of any Mortgage
encumbering the Hotel) for such purpose, repair or replace the damaged or destroyed portion of the Hotel to substantially the same
condition as existed previously.


 




    	33



    	 



    

 


B.           In
the event damage or destruction to the Hotel from any cause materially and adversely affects the operation of the Hotel and TRS
fails to timely (subject to unreasonable delays caused by Management Company, including unreasonable delays in adjusting the insurance
claim with the carriers which participate in Management Company’s blanket insurance program) commence and complete the repairing,
rebuilding, or replacement of the same so that the Hotel shall be substantially the same as it was prior to such damage or destruction,
Management Company may, at its option, elect to terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days’ written notice. Additionally,
if the Franchise Agreement is terminated due to TRS’s failure to repair and restore the Hotel, this Agreement shall terminate
effective upon the termination of the Franchise Agreement.


 


15.02      Condemnation


 


A.           If
all or substantially all of the Hotel is taken in any eminent domain, condemnation, compulsory acquisition, or similar proceeding
by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, this Agreement shall terminate as of the date Management
Company ceases to have physical possession of the Hotel. Any award for such taking or condemnation is to be paid to TRS, provided
that Management Company may advance and collect any claims to which it may be entitled as a result of such taking in accordance
with the terms of Section 15.02 C.


 


B.           In
the event a portion of the Hotel shall be taken by the events described in Section 15.02 A or the entire Hotel is affected
on a temporary basis but the result is not to make it unreasonable to continue to operate the Hotel, this Agreement shall not terminate.
However, so much of any award for any such partial or temporary taking or condemnation shall be made available by TRS as shall
be necessary to render the Hotel equivalent to its condition prior to such event, and the balance of such award, if any, shall
be paid over to TRS.


 


C.           All
condemnation awards or payments in lieu thereof for the value of the land and improvements so taken shall be the sole and exclusive
property of TRS. Management Company may make a claim to the condemning authority for its loss of business arising from the events
described in this Section 15.02, but only to the extent that such claim in no way prejudices, diminishes, reduces, or impairs TRS's
rights under the preceding sentence.


 


ARTICLE XVI


DEFAULTS


 


16.01      Default


 


Each of the following shall constitute a
“Default,” to the extent permitted by applicable law:

commencement of any judicial or administrative proceeding or non-judicial proceeding or the appointment of a receiver, trustee,
or custodian for all or any substantial part of the property of Management Company or TRS, as the case may be.

16.02      Event
of Default


 


Upon the occurrence
of any Default by either party (referred to as the “defaulting party”) under Section 16.01 A, B, C or D, such Default
shall immediately and automatically, without the necessity of any notice to the defaulting party, constitute an “Event
of Default” under this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Default by a defaulting party under Section 16.01 E,
F, G, or H, such Default shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Agreement if the defaulting
party fails to cure such Default within the respective cure or payment period (as specified in the applicable subsection) after
written notice from the non-defaulting party specifying such Default and demanding such cure or payment; provided, however, that
if a Default under Section 16.01 H is such that it cannot reasonably be cured within said 30-day period, an “Event
of Default” shall then occur if the defaulting party fails to commence the cure of such Default within the specified
30-day period or thereafter fails to diligently pursue such efforts to completion.


 


16.03      Remedies
upon Event of Default


 


Upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, the non-defaulting party shall have the right to pursue any one or more of the following courses of action:
(i) in the event of a material breach by the defaulting party of its obligations under this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement
by written notice to the defaulting party, which Termination shall be effective as of the effective date which is set forth in
said notice (provided that said effective date shall be at least thirty (30) days after the date of said notice; or, if the defaulting
party is the employer of all or a substantial portion of the employees at the Hotel, the 30-day period shall be extended to such
period of time as may be necessary under applicable law pertaining to termination of employment); and (ii) to institute any and
all proceedings permitted by law or equity, including, without limitation, actions for specific performance and/or damages. Upon
the occurrence of a Default by either party under Section 16.01 E, the amount owed to the non-defaulting party shall accrue interest,
at the rate described in Section 22.03, from and after the date on which such payment was originally due to the non-defaulting
party. The rights granted hereunder shall not be in substitution for, but shall be in addition to, any and all rights and remedies
available to the non-defaulting party by reason of applicable provisions of law or equity.


 


16.04      Excused
Non-Performance


 


In the event either
party is unable to perform its obligations hereunder due to an event of Force Majeure (defined below), such performance shall be
extended for a period of time reasonably required to complete performance of such obligation(s). “Force Majeure”
means acts of God, acts of war, civil disturbance, governmental action (including the revocation or refusal to grant licenses or
permits, where such revocation or refusal is not due to the fault of the non-performing party), strikes, fire, unavoidable casualties,
and any other causes beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing party. Any failed duty of Management Company which is
in whole or part due to TRS’s failure to provide the necessary funds for the payment of Operating Expenses, including the
funding of Working Capital or TRS-Funded Capital Expenditures pursuant to Section 8.03 of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be
excused under this Section 16.04. Force Majeure shall exclude general economic and/or market factors but shall include acts of
terrorism that have an economic impact on the Hotel or other hotels in the Competitive Set. Nothing in this Section 16.04 shall
excuse either TRS or Management Company from performance of any obligation of such party to pay any amounts or provide funding
as provided in this Agreement.

developed by Management Company for use in the Hotel) is and shall remain the exclusive property of Management Company or any one
of its Affiliates (or the licensor of such Software, as the case may be), and TRS shall have no right to use, or to copy, any Software.
Upon Termination, Management Company shall have the right to remove from the Hotel, without compensation to TRS, all Software,
and any computer equipment which is utilized as part of a centralized property management system or is otherwise considered proprietary
by Management Company. If any of such computer equipment is owned by TRS, Management Company shall reimburse TRS for previous expenditures
made by TRS for the purchase of such equipment, subject to a reasonable allowance for depreciation.

Property” (meaning all Software and manuals, brochures, and training materials and other directives issued by Management
Company or any of its Affiliate’s (to the extent of such Affiliate’s connection with the Hotel) to its employees at
the Hotel regarding procedures and techniques to be used in operating the Hotel) shall at all times be proprietary to Management
Company or its Affiliates, and shall be the exclusive property of Management Company or its Affiliates. Upon Termination, all Intellectual
Property shall be removed from the Hotel by Management Company, without compensation to TRS.


 


17.04      Proprietary

TRS hereby acknowledges
that the Proprietary Materials and goodwill associated therewith are the sole and exclusive property of Management Company and/or
its Affiliates. TRS shall not acquire any right, title or interest of any nature whatsoever in or to the Proprietary Materials
and shall not contest the rights of Management Company or its Affiliates in respect of the Proprietary Materials. Upon Termination
of the Agreement, all Proprietary Materials (including without limitation any Proprietary Materials in digital form) shall be returned
to and retained by Management Company and/or its Affiliates and shall not be retained or used by TRS for any purpose. The provisions
of this Article XVII shall survive any Termination of this Agreement.

18.01      Waiver


 


The failure of either
party to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or to exercise any option, right,
or remedy herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver or as a relinquishment for the future of such term, provision, option,
right, or remedy, but the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect. No waiver by either party of any term, provision,

18.02      Partial Invalidity


 


In the event that any
portion of this Agreement shall be declared invalid by order, decree, or judgment of a court, this Agreement shall be construed
as if such portion had not been inserted herein except when such construction would operate as an undue hardship to Management
Company or TRS or constitute a substantial deviation from the general intent and purpose of said parties as reflected in this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIX


ASSIGNMENT


 


19.01      Assignment
by Management Company and TRS


 


A.           Management
Company shall not assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement, or delegate any of its responsibilities hereunder, without
the prior written consent of TRS; provided, however, that Management Company shall have the right, without such consent, upon notice
to TRS, to assign, delegate, or transfer its interest in this Agreement, or delegate any of its responsibilities hereunder:


 


(i) to any Affiliate
of Management Company which (a) has adequate experience in managing hotels and has adequate capital to conduct business as Management
Company under this Agreement, and (b) agrees in writing to be bound by and comply with the terms of this Agreement (such written
agreement to be delivered to TRS), and following such assignment, such Affiliate shall be deemed to be the Management Company for
all purposes under this Agreement; or


 


(ii) in connection with
a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Management Company, which transfer is being done as part of a merger, consolidation,
or sale of all or substantially all of the business which consists of Management Company’s managed hotels; or


 


(iii) as part of any
substantial transaction involving Management Company, pursuant to which either (a) the management team of Management Company remains
in control of day-to-day operations; or (b) the new management team has equal or greater experience in operating hotel management
companies of a size equal to or greater than Management Company, and, in either event, the newly constituted Management Company
is not a competitor of the TRS.


 


B.           TRS
shall not assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of Management Company; provided,
however, that the TRS shall have the right, without such consent, upon notice to Management Company, to assign or otherwise transfer
its interest in this Agreement in connection with:


 


(i) a sale of the Hotel
that complies with the provisions of Section 20.01 of this Agreement;


 


(ii) any sale, assignment,
transfer, or other disposition of the Hotel by TRS to any wholly-owned subsidiary of TRS, provided that such subsidiary owns 100%
of the Hotel;


 


(iii) the collateral
assignment of this Agreement by TRS as security for any Mortgage securing a Qualified Loan; or


 


(iv) a merger or consolidation
or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of TRS, provided, however, that, the provisions of Section 20.01 shall be complied
with.


 




    	39



    	 



    

 


An assignment (either
voluntarily or by operation of law) by TRS of its interest in this Agreement shall not relieve TRS from its obligations under this
Agreement which accrued prior to the date of such assignment; TRS shall be relieved of such obligations accruing after such date,
if the assignment complies with this Article XIX and if Management Company has received an assumption agreement executed by the
assignee.


 


ARTICLE XX


SALE OR DEMOLITION


 


20.01      Sale
of the Hotel


 


A.           TRS
shall not enter into any Sale of the Hotel to any individual or entity which (i) does not, in Management Company’s reasonable
judgment, have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to fulfill TRS’s obligations under this Agreement; (ii) is known
in the community as being of bad moral character, or has been convicted of a felony in any state or federal court; or (iii) is
(or any of its Affiliates is), a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 20.01
A to the contrary, if Franchisor has approved the prospective purchaser or tenant as a franchisee, Management Company shall be
deemed to have approved the Sale of the Hotel to such prospective purchaser or tenant. TRS shall not enter into a Sale of the Hotel
if TRS is at the time in Default under the terms of this Agreement.


 


B.           If
TRS receives a bona fide written offer to enter into a Sale of the Hotel, TRS shall give written notice thereof to Management Company,
stating the name of the prospective purchaser or tenant. Such notice (the “Seller’s Notice”) shall
include appropriate information relating to such prospective purchaser or tenant demonstrating compliance with Section 20.01 A.
TRS shall also thereafter provide any additional information reasonably requested by Management Company. Concurrently with the
finalization of such Sale of the Hotel, the purchaser or tenant shall by appropriate instrument reasonably satisfactory to Management
Company, assume all of TRS’s obligations hereunder. An executed copy of such assumption agreement shall be delivered to Management
Company at the closing or consummation of such Sale of the Hotel.


 


If Management Company
reasonably determines that a Sale of the Hotel to such prospective purchaser or tenant would violate the provisions of Section
20.01 A, Management Company shall so notify TRS by no later than thirty (30) days after Management Company’s receipt of Seller’s
Notice, provided, however, that any decision regarding any such prospective purchaser or tenant shall not be binding if the information
furnished by TRS is inaccurate. If TRS enters into an agreement for the Sale of the Hotel to a purchaser or tenant notwithstanding
Management Company’s notice of non-compliance, Management Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by delivery
of written termination notice to TRS not earlier than thirty (30) days, nor more than one hundred twenty (120) days following the
date of the giving of such notice. Management Company shall have the right to change such effective date of Termination to coincide
with the date of the finalization of the proposed Sale of the Hotel. At Management Company’s election, said notice of Termination
shall not be effective if such Sale of the Hotel is not finalized. If (i) such Termination by Management Company results from
an Default by TRS under Section 20.01 A, or (ii) TRS fails to deliver Seller’s Notice to Management Company prior
to any Sale of the Hotel, Management Company shall have the right, at its option, to immediately terminate this Agreement upon
thirty (30) days’ notice to TRS and, in either case, an Event of Default by TRS shall be deemed to have occurred and Management
shall have the right to institute any and all proceedings permitted by law or equity, including without limitation, actions for
specific performance and/or damages.


 




    	40



    	 



    

 


C.           Upon
a Sale of the Hotel in compliance with this Article XX, TRS shall be released of all liabilities and obligations arising under
and with respect to this Agreement on and after the date of such Sale of the Hotel; provided, however, that TRS shall continue
to be liable for all obligations and amounts due which arise or accrue during the Term of this Agreement before the date of such
Sale of the Hotel. No Sale of the Hotel shall reduce or otherwise affect: (a) the current level of Working Capital; (b) the current
amount deposited in the Reserve; or (c) the amount in any of the Operating Accounts maintained by Management Company pursuant to
this Agreement. If, in connection with any such Sale of the Hotel, the selling TRS intends to withdraw, for its own use, any of
the cash deposits described in the preceding sentence, the selling TRS must obtain the contractual obligation of the new TRS to
replenish those deposits (in identical amounts) simultaneously with such withdrawal. The selling TRS is hereby contractually obligated
to Management Company to ensure that such replenishment in fact occurs. The obligations described in this Section 20.01 C shall
survive the Sale of the Hotel and Termination of this Agreement.


 


D.           Each
party hereby represents and warrants to the other that neither party nor any of its Affiliates is a Specially Designated National
or Blocked Person. In connection with the possibility of a Sale of the Hotel achieved by means of a transfer of the controlling
interest in TRS, as the case may be, TRS shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) days after written request by Management
Company, furnish Management Company a list of the names and addresses of the direct and indirect owners of capital stock, partnership
interest, or other proprietary interest of TRS, provided that TRS shall not be required to provide names and addresses of shareholders
of a public company.


 


20.02      Termination
upon Demolition


 


TRS may, by written
notice to Management Company, terminate this Agreement upon the demolition of the Hotel, such Termination to be effective upon
the expiration of ninety (90) days following Management Company’s receipt of such notice from TRS. Any such notice shall
contain sufficient information to permit Management Company to comply with any required notices to Hotel employees under federal
or state laws, including, without limitation, the WARN Act.

shall violate any provisions of law or judgment, writ, injunction, order, or decree of any court or governmental authority having
jurisdiction over it; result in or constitute a breach or default under any indenture, contract, other commitment, or restriction
to which it is a party or by which it is bound; or require any consent, vote, or approval which has not been taken, or at the time

Company


 


The relationship of
TRS and Management Company shall be that of principal and agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to create
a partnership or joint venture between them or their successors in interest. This Agreement is for the benefit of TRS and Management
Company and shall not create third party beneficiary rights. To the extent any fiduciary duties would have the effect of modifying,
limiting, or restricting the express provisions of this Agreement, or expanding or restricting the rights or obligations of either
party that are expressly addressed in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and any liability between the parties
shall be based solely on principles of contract law and the express provisions of this Agreement. For the purposes of assessing
Management Company’s fiduciary duties and obligations under this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that the terms and provisions
of this Agreement and the duties and obligations set forth herein are intended to satisfy the fiduciary duties which may exist
as a result of the relationship between the parties. The parties hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waive and release any punitive,
exemplary, statutory, or treble damages or any incidental or consequential damages with respect to any breach of fiduciary duties.

22.03      Failure
to Perform


 


If Management Company
or TRS at any time fails to make any payments as specified or required hereunder or fails to perform any other act required on
its part to be made or performed hereunder, then the other party after thirty (30) days' written notice to the defaulting party
may (but shall not be obligated to) pay any such delinquent amount or perform any such other act on the defaulting party's part.
Any sums thus paid and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of such payment or the proper performance
of any such act, together with interest thereon at the lesser of the: (i) interest rate allowed by the applicable usury laws; or
(ii) Prime Rate plus three percent (3%), from the date that such payment is made or such costs and expenses incurred, shall constitute
a liquidated amount to be paid by the defaulting party under this Agreement to the other party on demand.


 


22.04      Breach
of Covenant and Attorneys’ Fees


 


A.           TRS
and Management Company and/or their respective affiliated companies shall be entitled, in case of any breach of this Agreement
by the other party or others claiming through it, to injunctive relief and to any other right or remedy available at law or in
equity.


 


B.           In
the event any action or proceeding is commenced to obtain a declaration of rights hereunder or to enforce any provision of this
Agreement, or to seek rescission of this Agreement for Event of Default or any other relief in connection with this Agreement,
whether legal or equitable, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees
in addition to all other relief to which it may be entitled, whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. If either party
to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend litigation with a third party because of the violation by the other party of
any provision of this Agreement, then such party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable
costs incurred in connection with such action from the other party.

22.09      Environmental
Matters


 


A.           For
purposes of this Section 22.09, “hazardous materials” means any substance or material containing one or more of any
of the following: “hazardous material,” “hazardous waste,” “hazardous substance,” “regulated
substance,” “petroleum,” “pollutant,” “contaminant,” or “asbestos,” as such
terms are defined in any applicable environmental law, in such concentration(s) or amount(s) as may impose clean-up, removal, monitoring,
or other responsibility under any applicable environmental law, or which may present a significant risk of harm to guests, invitees,
or employees of the Hotel.


 


B.           Regardless
of whether or not a given hazardous material is permitted on the Hotel premises under applicable environmental law, Management
Company shall only bring on the premises such hazardous materials as are needed in the normal course of business of the Hotel.
Management Company shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TRS and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers,
shareholders, employees and agents) from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including, without limitation, engineers’
and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation) arising from the placing, discharge, leakage, use, or storage
of hazardous materials in violation of applicable environmental laws on the Hotel premises or in the Hotel by Management Company
during the Term of this Agreement.


 


C.           In
the event of the discovery of hazardous materials (as such term may be defined in any applicable environmental law) on the Hotel
premises or in the Hotel during the Term of this Agreement, TRS shall (except to the extent such removal is Management Company’s
responsibility pursuant to Section 22.09 B) promptly remove, if required by applicable environmental law, such hazardous materials,
together with all contaminated soil and containers, and shall otherwise remedy the problem in accordance with all environmental
laws. TRS shall (except to the extent that the removal of such hazardous materials is Management Company’s responsibility
pursuant to Section 22.09 B) indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Management Company and its Affiliates (and their respective directors,
officers, shareholders, employees and agents) from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including, without limitation,
engineers’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation) arising from the presence of hazardous materials
on the Hotel premises or in the Hotel. All costs and expenses of the removal of hazardous materials pursuant to this Section 22.09
C, and of compliance with all environmental laws, and any amounts paid to Management Company pursuant to the indemnity set forth
above, shall be paid by TRS from its own funds, not as an Operating Expense or from the Reserve.

22.10      Equity
and Debt Offerings


 


Neither TRS nor Management
Company (as an “issuing party”) shall make reference to the other party (the “non-issuing party”) or any
of its Affiliates in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering, offering circular, or offering documentation related
thereto (collectively referred to as the “Prospectus”), issued by the issuing party, unless the non-issuing
party has received a copy of all such references. In no event will the non-issuing party be deemed a participant or sponsor of
the offering described in any such Prospectus, nor will it have any responsibility for the issuing party’s obligations in
connection with such offering or for the Prospectus, and the Prospectus shall affirmatively so state. The issuing party shall not
include any proprietary mark or proprietary materials of the non-issuing party and shall not include a summary of this Agreement
without prior written consent of the non-issuing party. The Prospectus shall further disclose that the non-issuing party has made
no representations, warranties, or guarantees whatsoever with respect to any of contents of or the materials contained in the Prospectus
or the Prospectus itself. The issuing party shall only make use of any forecasts, annual plans or projections prepared in the issuing
party’s name (or the names of any of the issuing party’s affiliates). The issuing party shall indemnify, defend, and
hold harmless the non-issuing party and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents)
from and against all loss, costs, liability, and damage (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation)
arising out of any Prospectus or the offering described therein. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Owner, its affiliates, AR
Capital, LLC, Realty Capital Securities, LLC, or any lender making a loan secured by the Hotel (individually and collectively,
a “Disclosing Party”) may reference Management Company as the manager of the Hotel in any Prospectus, provided such
Disclosing Party shall not disclose anything other than the name of the Management Company (without the use of any proprietary
marks or materials) without the prior written consent of Management Company (not to be unreasonably withheld).


 


22.11      Estoppel Certificates


 


TRS and Management
Company will, at any time and from time to time within fifteen (15) days of the request of the other party or a Qualified Lender,
execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other party and such Qualified Lender, if any, a certificate certifying:

and effect as modified and stating such modifications);


 


B.           The
dates, if any, on which the distributions of Operating Profit have been paid;


 


C.           Whether

nature of such Defaults, if any; and


 


D.           Such
other matters as may be reasonably requested.

This Agreement, together
with other writings signed by the parties expressly stated to be supplementary hereto and together with any instruments to be executed
and delivered pursuant to this Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior understandings
and writings, and may be changed only by a writing signed by the parties hereto. This instrument may be executed in counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
