 ARTICLE 3 
 RENT 
  
 3.1 Rent. Lessee will pay to Lessor in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and
private debts, in immediately available funds without reduction or offset, at Lessor’s address set forth in Article 32 hereof or at such other place or to such other Person, as Lessor from time to time may designate in a Notice, all Base
Rent, Percentage Rent and Additional Charges, during the Term, as follows: 
  
 (a) Base Rent: The annual Base Rent payable for the Leased Property shall be equal to the amount described on Exhibit “B” attached hereto as “Base Rent” payable in
arrears in equal, consecutive monthly installments, on or before the first day of each calendar month of the Term (“Base Rent”); provided, however, that the first and last monthly payments of Base Rent shall be pro
rated as to any partial month, and 
  
 (b)
Percentage Rent: 
  
 (i) For each month
during the Term, Lessee shall pay percentage rent (“Percentage Rent”) in an amount calculated by the following formula: 
  
 The amount equal to the Monthly Revenues Computation (as defined on Exhibit “B” attached hereto) 
  
 less 
  
 an amount equal to the Base Rent paid for the applicable month 

 
 equals 
  
 Percentage Rent for the applicable month. 
  
 (ii) The Percentage Rent payable for the last month in any
calendar quarter shall be adjusted to reflect the Percentage Rent that would be payable on a year-to-date cumulative basis based on the percentage of the Fiscal Year elapsed to the same percentage of the Annual Revenues Computation (i.e.
twenty-five percent (25%) for the first quarter, fifty percent (50%) for the second quarter and so forth). The amount equal to the Annual Revenues Computation is defined on Exhibit “B” attached hereto. Revenues for any quarter
other than the last quarter of the Fiscal Year shall be annualized (e.g., revenues for the first, second and third 

  

 -14- 








 
quarters of the Fiscal Year shall be multiplied by four, two, and 1-1/3, respectively) for the Fiscal Year for purposes of this computation, and amounts for
the first and last year of the Term shall be appropriately prorated. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the amount of Percentage Rent determined by way of the above formula with respect to a particular month during the Term shall be less than the sum of (x)
all real estate taxes that accrue during such period with respect to the Leased Property and Lessee’s Personal Property, (y) the insurance premiums that become due during such period with respect to the insurance maintained with respect to the
Leased Property or otherwise required to be maintained under the terms of this Lease and (z) the replacement reserve funds described in Section 40.1 below (such sum, the “Tax, Insurance and Reserve Amount”), then the
Percentage Rent for such month shall be the applicable Tax, Insurance and Reserve Amount. If any Base Rent or Percentage Rent is not paid by Lessee when required pursuant to this Section 3.1, such Base Rent or Percentage Rent shall
automatically become Accrued Rent and shall not cause an Event of Default under this Lease except as expressly set forth in Section 16.1(a) and (b) hereof. 
  
 (c) Officer’s Certificates. An Officer’s Certificate shall be delivered to Lessor monthly
setting forth the calculation of the Percentage Rent payment for the most recently completed month within thirty (30) days after the end of each month in the Term. The Percentage Rent payments for the months to which the Officer’s Certificates
relate shall accompany such Officer’s Certificate. Such monthly payments shall be based on the formula set forth in Section 3.1(b)(i), as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(ii). There shall be no reduction in the
Base Rent regardless of the result of the Revenues Computation. 
  
 The obligation to pay Percentage Rent shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, and a final reconciliation, taking into account, among other relevant adjustments, any adjustments which are
accrued after such expiration or termination date but which related to Percentage Rent accrued prior to such termination date, and Lessee’s good faith best estimate of the amount of any unresolved contractual allowances shall be made not later
than two years after such expiration or termination date, but Lessee shall advise Lessor within sixty (60) days after such expiration or termination date of Lessee’s best estimate at that time of the approximate amount of such adjustments,
which estimate shall not be binding on Lessee or have any legal effect whatsoever. 
  
 (d) CPI Adjustments to Base Rent and Room Revenue Thresholds. For each Fiscal Year of the Term beginning on or after January 1st of
the first (1st) calendar year after the Commencement Date (but not earlier than January 1, 2006), the Base Rent then
in effect, and the threshold Room Revenues then included in the Monthly and Annual Revenues Computations set forth in Section 3.1 shall be increased (but never decreased) as follows: 
  
 (1) Annual Adjustment Procedure. The year-end
Consumer Price Index for the most recently ended Fiscal Year shall be divided by the year-end Consumer Price Index for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year. 
  

 -15- 








 (A) The new Base Rent for the then current Fiscal Year shall be the adjusted amount
obtained by multiplying the Base Rent for the immediately preceding Fiscal Year by the quotient obtained in subparagraph (1) above. 
  
 (B) The new threshold dollar amount in the Monthly and Annual Revenues Computations described in Section 3.1(b) above for the then
current Fiscal Year shall be the product of the threshold dollar amount of Room Revenues in effect in the most recently ended Fiscal Year and the quotient obtained in subparagraph (d)(1) above. 
  
 By way of example, the amount of Base Rent and the threshold
Room Revenues amounts in the Monthly and Annual Revenues Computations for the Fiscal Year commencing January 1, 2004 shall be increased (but never decreased) to reflect any change in the Consumer Price Index from the Fiscal Year ended December 31,
2003 as compared to the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2002. 
  
 Adjustments calculated as set forth above in the Base Rent and threshold Room Revenues amounts shall be effective on January 1 of the Fiscal Year to which such adjusted amounts apply. If rent is paid in any Fiscal
Year prior to the determination of the amount of any adjustment to Base Rent or the threshold Room Revenues applicable for such Fiscal Year, payment adjustments for any shortfall in or overpayment of rent paid shall be made with the first Base Rent
Payment due after the amount of the adjustments are determined. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, adjustments to Base Rent and threshold Room Revenues shall in no event result in any decrease to Base Rent or threshold Room Revenues. Therefore, if any
adjustment required under subparagraph 3(d)(1) above would result in a decrease in Base Rent and threshold Room Revenues, then Base Rent and threshold Room Revenues shall not be adjusted. 
  
 3.2 Confirmation of Percentage Rent. Lessee shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the
Leased Property in accordance with Lessee’s usual and customary practices, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and the Uniform System, that will accurately record all data necessary to compute
Percentage Rent, and Lessee shall retain, for at least four years after the expiration of each Fiscal Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all data necessary to compute Percentage Rent for the applicable
Fiscal Years. Lessor, at Lessor’s expense (except as provided hereinbelow), shall have the right from time to time by Lessor’s accountants or representatives to audit and examine all Lessee’s records (including supporting data and
sales and excise tax returns) reasonably required to verify Percentage Rent, subject to any prohibitions or limitations on disclosure of any such data under Legal Requirements. If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Percentage
Rent, and either Lessee agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined or compromised, Lessee shall forthwith pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the
Overdue Rate from the date when said payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof; provided, however, that as to any audit that is commenced more than two years after the date Percentage Rent for any Fiscal Year is
reported by Lessee to Lessor, the deficiency, if any, with respect to such Percentage Rent shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate only from the date such determination of deficiency is made unless such deficiency is the result of gross negligence


  

 -16- 








 
or willful misconduct on the part of Lessee, in which case interest at the Overdue Rate will accrue from the date such payment should have been made to the
date of payment thereof. If any such audit discloses that the actual Annual Revenues Computations for any Fiscal Year exceeds that reported by Lessee by more than three percent 3%, Lessee shall pay the cost of such audit and examination. Any
proprietary information obtained by Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, in any litigation between the
parties and except further that Lessor may disclose such information to prospective lenders or as required to comply with applicable Legal Requirements, including without limitation, reporting requirements under state and federal securities laws.
The obligations of Lessee contained in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
  
 3.3 Additional Charges. In addition to the Base Rent and Percentage Rent, (a) Lessee also shall pay and discharge as and when due and payable all
other amounts, liabilities, obligations and impositions that Lessee assumes or agrees to pay under this Lease, (b) in the event of any failure on the part of Lessee to pay any of those items referred to in clause (a) of this Section 3.3,
Lessee also shall promptly pay and discharge every fine, penalty, interest and cost that may be added for non-payment or late payment of such items, and (c) if any installment of Base Rent, Percentage Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those
Additional Charges that are payable directly to Lessor) shall not be paid on its due date, Lessee will pay Lessor on demand a late charge (to the maximum extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment, from
the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof (the items referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c)) of this Section 3.3 are additional rent hereunder and are referred to herein collectively as the “Additional
Charges”). Lessor shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Lease or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the
Base Rent. To the extent that Lessee pays any Additional Charges to Lessor pursuant to any requirement of this Lease, Lessee shall be relieved of Lessee’s obligation to pay such Additional Charges to the entity to which they would otherwise be
due and Lessor shall pay same from monies received from Lessee. 
  
 3.4 Lease Provision. The Rent shall be paid so that this Lease shall yield to Lessor the full amount of the installments of Base Rent, Percentage Rent and Additional Charges throughout the Term, all as more fully set forth in
Article 5, but subject to any other provisions of this Lease that expressly provide for adjustment or abatement of Rent. 
  
 3.5 Addition or Deletion of Food or Beverage Services. If, during the Term, Lessee desires to provide additional food and beverage operations at
any Facility (other than complimentary continental breakfast), or terminate any existing food and beverage operations, Lessee shall give notice of such desire to Lessor. Lessor shall have the right to approve or disapprove of any such addition or
deletion of food and beverage operations. If Lessor shall approve such addition or deletion, Lessor and Lessee shall then commence negotiations to adjust Rent to reflect the proposed change to the operation of such Facility, each acting reasonably
and in good faith. All other terms of this Lease will remain substantially the same. During negotiations, which shall not extend beyond sixty (60) days, Lessee shall not “convert” such Facility and shall continue fulfilling Lessee’s
obligations under the existing terms of this Lease. If no agreement is reached after such 60-day period, such dispute shall be determined by 

  

 -17- 








 
arbitration in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association or any successor organization thereof and Title 9
of the U.S. Arbitration Act in New York, New York. 
  
 3.6
Change in Franchise Affiliation. Lessee shall not, without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent may be granted or withheld in Lessor’s sole discretion, replace the existing franchise affiliation for any Facility or select a
franchise affiliation for an unaffiliated facility. 
  
 3.7
Change in Scope of Work. If, during the renovation of any Facility, the Lessee and Lessor shall mutually determine to change the scope of the work that was originally agreed upon between the Lessor and the Lessee when the Rent was determined,
then the following provisions shall apply: 
  
 (a) Lessee shall provide written notice to Lessor of the requested change in scope of the project including, if applicable, a requested change order in the form required for the construction contract applicable to the renovation if such
Facility; 
  
 (b) Lessor shall determine the
increased costs for the requested change order through consultation with the general contractor on the job or otherwise; 
  
 (c) Upon completion of the project at the Facility, the Lessor and Lessee shall then commence negotiations to adjust the Rent to reflect
the additional expenditure by the Lessor to complete the changed work, each acting reasonably and in good faith; and 
  
 (d) All other terms of this Lease will remain substantially the same. During negotiations, which shall not extend beyond sixty (60) days,
Lessee shall continue fulfilling Lessee’s obligations under the existing terms of this Lease. If no agreement is reached after the 60-day period, then the Lessee shall reimburse the Lessor for the actual costs of the change in work and this
Lease shall otherwise continue in full force. 
  
 3.8 Annual
Budget. Within ninety (90) days after the date of this Lease, and not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the commencement of each Fiscal Year beginning with the Fiscal Year commencing January 1st of the first (1st) calendar year after the Commencement Date, Lessee shall submit the Annual Budget to Lessor. The Annual Budget shall be
subject to the approval of Lessor in Lessor’s sole discretion and shall contain the following: 
  
 (a) Lessee’s reasonable estimate of Gross Revenues (including room rates and Room Revenues), Gross Operating Expenses, and Gross

items.

full and adequate books of account and other records reflecting the results of operation of each Facility on an accrual basis, all in accordance with the Uniform System and generally accepted accounting principles and the obligations of Lessee under
this Lease. The books of account and all other records relating to or reflecting the operation of each Facility shall be kept either at such Facility or at Lessee’s offices, and shall be available to Lessor and Lessor’s representatives,
auditors, accountants or lenders at all reasonable times for examination, audit, inspection and transcription. All of such books and records pertaining to each Facility including, without limitation, books of account, guest records and front office
records, shall not be removed from such Facility or Lessee’s offices without the approval of Lessor. 
  
 3.10 Lessee Cure Right. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Lessor authorizes Lessee to take any and all action on
Lessor’s behalf to cure or prevent any Default or Event of Default under the Loan Documents if Lessee reasonably determines that taking such action would be required to protect Lessee’s rights under this Lease or in Lessee’s Personal
Property. 
  
 ARTICLE 4 
 IMPOSITIONS 
  
 4.1 Payment of Impositions. Subject to Article 12 relating to permitted contests, Lessee will pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions
(other than Real Estate Taxes which shall be paid by Lessor) before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing or other authorities where feasible, and will promptly furnish to
Lessor copies of official receipts or other satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. Lessee’s obligation to pay such Impositions shall be deemed absolutely fixed upon the date such Impositions become a lien upon the Leased Property or any
part thereof. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Lessee may exercise the option to pay the 

  

 -19- 








 
same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term
thereof (subject to Lessee’s right of contest pursuant to the provisions of Article 12) as the same respectively become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Lessor, at Lessor’s
expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable law, prepare and file all tax returns and/or reports in respect of Lessor’s net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem,
franchise taxes, Real Estate Taxes and taxes on Lessor’s capital stock, and Lessee, at Lessee’s expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in
respect to any Imposition as may be required by governmental authorities. If any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Lessee, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Lessee if no Event of Default
shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any such refund shall be paid over to or retained by Lessor. Any such funds paid over or retained by Lessor due to an Event of Default
shall be applied as provided in Article 16. Lessor and Lessee shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any
required returns and/or reports. Lessee shall file all returns and/or reports on Personal Property Taxes in such jurisdictions where it is legally required to so file. Lessor, to the extent it possesses the same, and Lessee, to the extent it
possesses the same, will provide the other party, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property classified as personal property. Where Lessor is legally required to file Personal Property Tax returns,
Lessee shall provide Lessor with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Lessor to file a protest. Lessor may, upon notice to Lessee, at Lessor’s option and at Lessor’s sole expense, protest, appeal, or institute such other
proceedings (in Lessor’s or Lessee’s name) as Lessor may deem appropriate to effect a reduction of real estate or personal property assessments for those Impositions to be paid by Lessor, and Lessee, at Lessor’s expense as aforesaid,
shall fully cooperate with Lessor in such protest, appeal, or other action. Lessor hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessee from and against any claims, obligations and liabilities against or incurred by Lessee in connection with
such cooperation. Billings by Lessor to Lessee for reimbursement of any Personal Property Taxes paid by Lessor shall be accompanied by copies of a bill therefor and payments thereof which identify the personal property with respect to which such
payments are made. Lessor, however, reserves the right to effect any such protest, appeal or other action and, upon notice to Lessee, shall control any such activity, which shall then go forward at Lessor’s sole expense. Upon such notice,
Lessee, at Lessors expense, shall cooperate fully with such activities. 
  
 4.2 Notice of Impositions. Lessor shall give prompt Notice of all Impositions payable by Lessee hereunder of which Lessor at any time has knowledge provided that Lessor’s failure to give any such Notice shall in no way diminish
Lessee’s obligations hereunder to pay such Impositions, but such failure shall obviate any default hereunder for a reasonable time after Lessee receives Notice of any Imposition which it is obligated to pay during the first taxing period
applicable thereto. 
  
 4.3 Adjustment of Impositions.
Impositions imposed in respect of the tax-fiscal period during which the Term terminates shall be adjusted and prorated between Lessor and 

  

 -20- 








 
Lessee, whether or not such Imposition is imposed before or after such termination, and Lessee’s obligation to pay Lessee’s prorated share thereof
after termination shall survive such termination. 
  
 ARTICLE 5

 ABATEMENT 
  
 5.1 No Termination, Abatement, Etc. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, and except for loss of any Franchise Agreement solely
by reason of any action or inaction by Lessor, Lessee, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Lease in accordance with its terms and shall neither take any action without the written consent of Lessor to modify, surrender
or terminate the same, nor seek nor be entitled to any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or setoff against the Rent, nor shall the obligations of Lessee be otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to, or destruction of,
any Leased Property or any portion thereof from whatever cause or any Taking of the Leased Property or any portion thereof, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Lessee’s use of the Leased Property, or any portion
thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person, or by reason of eviction by paramount title, (c) any claim which Lessee has or might have against Lessor by reason of any default or breach of any warranty by Lessor under this Lease or any
other agreement between Lessor and Lessee, or to which Lessor and Lessee are parties, (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Lessor or any
assignee or transferee of Lessor, or (e) for any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing other than a discharge of Lessee from any such obligations as a matter of law. Lessee hereby specifically waives all rights, arising
from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law to (1) modify, surrender or terminate this Lease or quit or surrender the Leased Property or any portion thereof, or (2) entitle Lessee to any abatement,
reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable by Lessee hereunder, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease. The obligations of Lessee hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements and the
Rent and all other sums payable by Lessee hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated or abated pursuant to the express provisions of this Lease or by termination of this Lease
other than by reason of an Event of Default. 
  
 5.2 Abatement
Procedures. In the event of a partial Taking as described in Section 15.5, this Lease shall not terminate for Taking, but the Base Rent shall be abated in the manner and to the extent that is fair, just and equitable to both Lessee and
Lessor, taking into consideration, among other relevant factors, the number of usable rooms, the amount of square footage, or the revenues affected by such partial Taking. If Lessor and Lessee are unable to agree upon the amount of such abatement
within thirty (30) days after such partial Taking, the matter may be submitted by either party to a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution. 
  
 5.3 Abatement During Renovation. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, Base Rent shall be abated during any period in which
the Lessor is renovating any Facility in an amount equal to the fraction, the numerator of which is the number of guest rooms out of service because of such renovations, and the denominator of which is the total number of guest rooms at all of the
Facilities. Such abatement shall be calculated and applied monthly during the renovations. 
  

 -21- 








 ARTICLE 6 
 PERSONAL PROPERTY; LESSOR’S LIEN 
  
 6.1 Ownership of the Leased Property. Lessee acknowledges that the Leased Property is the property of Lessor and that Lessee has only the right to the possession and use of the Leased Property upon the terms
and conditions of this Lease. 
  
 6.2 Lessee’s Personal
Property. Lessee will acquire and maintain throughout the Term such Inventory as is required to operate the Leased Property in the manner contemplated by this Lease. Lessee may (and shall as provided hereinbelow), at Lessee’s expense,
install, affix or assemble or place on any parcels of the Land or in any of the Leased Improvements, any items of tangible personal property (including Inventory) owned by Lessee (collectively, the “Lessee’s Personal
Property”), it being understood that all items of tangible personal property other than Furniture and Equipment and Fixtures located on, and used in connection with, the operation of the Leased Improvements as a hotel, together with all
replacements, modifications, alterations and additions thereto, shall be deemed to be the Lessee’s Personal Property. All of Lessee’s Personal Property, other than Inventory (which shall remain with the Leased Premises and be conveyed to
Lessor at the expiration of the term at no cost to Lessor), not removed by Lessee within ten (10) days following the expiration or earlier termination of the Term shall be appropriated, sold, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Lessor without
first giving Notice thereof to Lessee, provided that Lessor must compensate Lessee for any of such Lessee’s Personal Property that it appropriates, sells, destroys or otherwise disposes of in an amount equal to the fair market value thereof as
appraised in conformity with market appraisal standards then in use for the locality in which the property is located, except that the appraisers need not be members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, but rather shall be appraisers
having at least 10 years experience in valuing hotel tangible personal property. Lessee will, at Lessee’s expense, restore the Leased Property to its original condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), including repair of all damage to the
Leased Property caused by the removal of Lessee’s Personal Property, whether effected by Lessee or Lessor. Lessee may make such financing arrangements, title retention agreements, leases or other agreements with respect to the Lessee’s
Personal Property as it sees fit; provided, that Lessee first advises Lessor of any such arrangement and such arrangement expressly provides that in the event of Lessee’s default thereunder, Lessor (or Lessor’s designee) may cure
such default and assume Lessee’s obligations and rights under such arrangement. 
  
 6.3 Cash Management System. Lessor directs Lessee and Lessee acknowledges and agrees, pursuant to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement, to deposit or cause to be deposited all Gross Revenue (less any
amounts any Manager is entitled to withhold pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement relating to any Facility) from the operation of the Leased Property and the Facilities into the Cash Management System so long as any amounts under the
Loan are outstanding. For purposes of this Section 6.3 only, the term “Gross Revenues” shall be deemed to include (a) proceeds of insurance and condemnation, (b) judgments and awards and (c) items constituting “allowances”
under the Uniform System. Lessor hereby expressly authorizes Lessee to receive any and all amounts released by Lender from the Cash Management System, including amounts deposited by Lender into any remainder account or subaccount or released by
Lender from any reserve or escrow account or subaccount. For each month during the Term, all funds deposited by Lessee into the Cash Management 

  

 -22- 








 
System less (i) any such funds deposited into the replacement reserve account, the operating expense subaccount or the extraordinary expense subaccount
thereunder and (ii) any other such funds deposited into the remainder subaccount thereunder (the “Monthly Deposit Credit”), shall be deemed to offset and be applied to the payment of Rent owed by Lessee for such month. If the
Monthly Deposit Credit exceeds the amount of Rent owed by Lessee for any given month (the “Excess Monthly Deposit Credit”), then the Excess Monthly Deposit Credit shall accrue interest at the Base Rate until paid or otherwise
satisfied by Lessor or applied as payment of rent in future periods; provided, however, that Lessee hereby waives Lessee’s right to enforce or collect Excess Monthly Deposit Credits in cash against Lessor until the date which is
12 months after the Loan has been indefeasibly paid in full and any such Excess Monthly Deposit Credits shall be subject to and subordinate in all respects to the Loan and the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, Excess Monthly Deposit Credits shall, upon their creation, be applied first, to reduce and satisfy any Accrued Rent and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, until all Accrued Rent has been satisfied in full. 
  
 ARTICLE 7 
 CONDITION OF LEASED PROPERTY; USE 
  
 7.1 Condition of the Leased Property. Lessee acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of the Leased Property. Lessee has examined and otherwise has knowledge of the condition of the Leased Property and
has found the same to be satisfactory for its purposes hereunder. Lessee is leasing the Leased Property “as is” in its present condition. Lessee waives any claim or action against Lessor in respect of the condition of the Leased Property.
LESSOR MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY, OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OF PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE
MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY LESSEE. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LEASED PROPERTY HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY LESSEE AND IS SATISFACTORY TO LESSEE. Provided,
however, to the extent permitted by law, Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee all of Lessor’s rights to proceed against any predecessor in title other than Lessee (or an Affiliate of Lessee which conveyed the Property to Lessor) or any
contractor, materialmen or other similar Persons for breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the Leased Property. Lessor shall fully cooperate with Lessee in the prosecution of any such claim, in Lessor’s or
Lessee’s name, all at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lessor from and against any claims, obligations and liabilities against or incurred by Lessor in connection with such
cooperation. 
  
 7.2 Use of the Leased Property.

  
 (a) Lessee covenants that it will obtain and
maintain all approvals needed to use and operate the Leased Property and the Facilities under applicable Legal Requirements. 
  
 (b) Lessee shall use or cause to be used the Leased Property only as a hotel facility, and for such other uses as may be necessary or
incidental to such use (the “Primary Intended Use”). Lessee shall not use the Leased Property or any portion thereof for any other 

  

 -23- 








 
use without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent may be granted, denied or conditioned in Lessor’s reasonable discretion. No use shall be
made or permitted to be made of the Leased Property, and no acts shall be done, which will cause the cancellation or increase the premium of any insurance policy covering the Leased Property or any part thereof (unless another adequate policy
satisfactory to Lessor is available and Lessee pays any premium increase), nor shall Lessee sell or permit to be kept, used or sold in or about the Leased Property any article which may be prohibited by law or fire underwriter’s regulations.
Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole cost, comply with all of the requirements pertaining to the Leased Property of any insurance board, association, organization or company necessary for the maintenance of insurance, as herein provided, covering the
Leased Property and Lessee’s Personal Property. 
  
 (c) Subject to the provisions of Articles 14, 15, 21 and 22, Lessee covenants and agrees that during the Term it will (1) operate continuously the Leased Property for the Primary Intended Use, (2) keep in full force and effect
and comply with all the provisions of any Franchise Agreement (except that Lessee shall have no obligation to complete any capital improvements to the Leased Property required by the franchisor unless the Lessor funds the cost thereof), (3) not
terminate or amend any Franchise Agreement without the consent of Lessor, (4) maintain appropriate certifications and licenses for such use, and (5) seek to maximize the Gross Revenues generated therefrom consistent with sound business practices,
and (6) seek to keep the costs and expenses of the Leased Property payable by Lessor at reasonable levels. 
  
 (d) Lessee shall not commit or suffer to be committed any waste on the Leased Property, or in the Facility, nor shall Lessee cause or
permit any nuisance thereon. 
  
 (e) Lessee shall
neither suffer nor permit the Leased Property or any portion thereof, or Lessee’s Personal Property, to be used in such a manner as (1) might reasonably tend to impair Lessor’s (or Lessee’s, as the case may be) title thereto or to any
portion thereof, or (2) may reasonably make possible a claim or claims of adverse usage or adverse possession by the public, as such, or of implied dedication of the Leased Property or any portion thereof, except as necessary in the ordinary and
prudent operation of the Facility on the Leased Property. 
  
 7.3
Lessor to Grant Easements, Etc. Lessor will, from time to time, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the request of Lessee and at Lessee’s cost and expense (but subject to the approval of Lessor, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (a) grant easements and other rights in the nature of easements with respect to the Leased Property to third parties, (b) release existing easements or other rights in the nature of easements
which are for the benefit of the Leased Property, (c) dedicate or transfer unimproved portions of the Leased Property for road, highway or other public purposes, (d) execute petitions to have the Leased Property annexed to any municipal corporation
or utility district, (e) execute any covenants and restrictions affecting the Leased Property and (f) execute and deliver to any Person any instrument appropriate to confirm or effect such grants, releases, dedications, transfers, petitions and
amendments (to the extent of Lessor’s interests in the Leased Property), but only upon delivery to Lessor of an officer’s certificate stating that such grant, release, dedication, transfer, petition or amendment does not interfere with the
proper conduct of the business of Lessee on the Leased Property and does not materially reduce the value of the Leased Property. 
  

 -24- 








 7.4 Engagement of a Manager: Lessee shall not engage a manager for the Leased Property other than
a Qualified Manager without the written consent of the Lessor, which may be given or withheld in Lessor’s reasonable discretion. Any management contract, agreement or other arrangement entered into by Lessee shall not relieve Lessee of any of
Lessee’s obligations hereunder and any such agreement shall be expressly subordinate to the terms and conditions of this Lease. 
  
 ARTICLE 8 
 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS

  
 8.1 Compliance with Legal and Insurance Requirements,
Etc. Subject to Section 8.3 below and Article 12 relating to permitted contests, Lessee, at Lessee’s expense, will promptly (a) comply with all applicable Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements in respect of the use,
operation, maintenance, repair and restoration of the Leased Property, and (b) procure, maintain and comply with all appropriate licenses and other authorizations required for any use of the Leased Property and Lessee’s Personal Property then
being made, and for the proper erection, installation, operation and maintenance of the Leased Property or any part thereof. 
  
 8.2 Legal Requirement Covenants. Subject to Section 8.3 below, Lessee covenants and agrees that the Leased Property and Lessee’s
Personal Property shall not be used for any unlawful purpose and that Lessee shall not permit or suffer to exist any unlawful use of the Leased Property by others. Lessee shall acquire and maintain all appropriate licenses, certifications, permits
and other authorizations and approvals needed to operate the Leased Property in its customary manner for the Primary Intended Use, and any other lawful use conducted on the Leased Property as may be permitted from time to time hereunder. Lessee
further covenants and agrees that Lessee’s use of the Leased Property and maintenance, alteration, and operation of the same, and all parts thereof, shall at all times conform to all Legal Requirements, unless the same are finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful (and Lessee shall cause all tenants, invitee or others to so comply with all Legal Requirements). Lessee may, however, upon prior Notice to Lessor, contest the legality or applicability of any such
Legal Requirement or any licensure or certification decision if Lessee maintains such action in good faith, with due diligence, without prejudice to Lessor’s rights hereunder, and at Lessee’s sole expense. Lessee may delay compliance with
any such Legal Requirement pending the outcome of any such contest provided no lien, charge or civil or criminal liability would be incurred and imposed upon Lessee, Lessor or the Leased Property by reason of any such delay and provided Lessee both
(a) furnishes to Lessor security reasonably satisfactory to Lessor against any loss or injury by reason of such contest or delay and (b) prosecutes the contest with due diligence and in good faith. 
  
 8.3 Environmental Covenants. Lessor and Lessee (in addition to, and
not in diminution of, Lessee’s covenants and undertakings in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 hereof) covenant and agree as follows: 
  
 (a) At all times hereafter until the later of (i) such time as all liabilities, duties or obligations of Lessee to the Lessor under this
Lease have been satisfied in full and (ii) such time as Lessee completely vacates the Leased Property and surrenders possession of the same to Lessor, Lessee shall fully comply with all Environmental Laws applicable to the Leased Property 

  

 -25- 








 
and the operations thereon. Lessee agrees to give Lessor prompt written notice of (1) all Environmental Liabilities; (2) all pending, threatened or
anticipated Proceedings, and all notices, demands, requests or investigations, relating to any Environmental Liability or relating to the issuance, revocation or change in any Environmental Authorization required for operation of the Leased
Property; (3) all Releases at, on, in, under or in any way affecting the Leased Property, or any Release known by Lessee at, on, in or under any property adjacent to the Leased Property; and (4) all facts, events or conditions that could reasonably
lead to the occurrence of any of the above-referenced matters. 
  
 (b) Lessor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless any and all Lessee Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Environmental Liabilities other than Environmental Liabilities which were caused by
the acts or grossly negligent failures to act of Lessee, Lessee’s agents, employees, contractors, invitees or licensees. 
  
 (c) Lessee hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless any and all Lessor Indemnified Parties from and against any and all
Environmental Liabilities which were caused by the acts or grossly negligent failures to act of Lessee, Lessee’s agents, employees, contractors, invitees or licensees. 
  
 (d) If any Proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of an Environmental Liability with
respect to which such Indemnified Party may claim indemnification under either Section 8.3(b) or (c), the Indemnifying Party, upon request, shall at such Indemnifying Party’s sole expense resist and defend such Proceeding, or cause the
same to be resisted and defended by counsel designated by the Indemnified Party and approved by the Indemnifying Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that such approval shall not be required in
the case of defense by counsel designated by any insurance company undertaking such defense pursuant to any applicable policy of insurance. Each Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the sole expense of such Indemnified Party unless such counsel has been approved by the Indemnifying Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding made without its consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, or if settled without such
Indemnifying Party’s consent (if its consent shall be unreasonably withheld), or if there be a final, nonappealable judgment for an adversary party in any such Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified
Parties from and against any liabilities incurred by such Indemnified Parties by reason of such settlement or judgment. 
  
 (e) At any time any Indemnified Party has reason to believe circumstances exist which could reasonably result in an Environmental
Liability, upon reasonable prior written notice to Lessee stating such Indemnified Party’s basis for such belief, an Indemnified Party shall be given immediate access to the Leased Property (including, but not limited to, the right to enter
upon, investigate, drill wells, take soil borings, excavate, monitor, cap and use available land for the testing of remedial technologies), Lessee’s employees, and to all relevant documents and records regarding the matter as to which a
responsibility, liability or obligation is asserted or which is the subject of any Proceeding, provided that such access may be conditioned or restricted as may be reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with law and the safety of 

  

 -26- 








 
personnel and facilities or to protect confidential or privileged information. All Indemnified Parties requesting such immediate access and cooperation shall
endeavor to coordinate such efforts to result in as minimal interruption of the operation of the Leased Property as practicable. 
  
 (f) The indemnification rights and obligations provided for in this Article 8 shall be in addition to any indemnification rights
and obligations provided for elsewhere in this Lease. 
  
 (g) The indemnification rights and obligations provided for in this Article 8 shall survive the termination of this Lease. 
  
 (h) For purposes of this Section 8.3, all amounts for which any Indemnified Party seeks indemnification shall be computed net of
(a) any actual income tax benefit resulting therefrom to such Indemnified Party, (b) any insurance proceeds received (net of tax effects) with respect thereto, and (c) any amounts recovered (net of tax effects) from any third parties based on claims
the Indemnified Party has against such third parties which reduce the damages that would otherwise be sustained, provided that in all cases, the timing of the receipt or realization of insurance proceeds or income tax benefits or recoveries from
third parties shall be taken into account in determining the amount of reduction of damages. Each Indemnified Party agrees to use its reasonable efforts to pursue, or assign to Lessee or Lessor, as the case may be, any Claims or rights it may have
against any third party which would materially reduce the amount of damages otherwise incurred by such Indemnified Party. 
  
 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Lessor shall become entitled to the possession of this Leased
Property by virtue of the termination of this Lease or repossession of the Leased Property, then Lessor may assign Lessor’s indemnification rights under Section 8.3 of this Lease (but not any other rights hereunder) to any Person to whom
the Lessor subsequently transfers the Leased Property, subject to the following conditions and limitations, each of which shall be deemed to be incorporated into the terms of such assignment, whether or not specifically referred to therein:

  
 (1) The indemnification rights referred to in
this section may be assigned only if a known Environmental Liability then exists or if a proceeding is then pending or, to the knowledge of Lessee or Lessor, then threatened with respect to the Leased Property; 
  
 (2) Such indemnification rights shall be limited to
Environmental Liabilities relating to or specifically affecting the Leased Property; and 
  
 (3) Any assignment of such indemnification rights shall be limited to the immediate transferee of Lessor, and shall not extend to any such
transferee’s successors or assigns. 
  

 -27- 








 ARTICLE 9 
 IMPROVEMENTS; MAINTENANCE 
  
 9.1 Capital Improvements, Maintenance and Repair. 
  
 (a) Subject to Section 9.1(b), Lessee shall (i) keep the Leased Property and all private roadways, sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto that are under Lessee’s control, including windows and plate
glass, parking lots, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems and equipment (including conduit and ductware), and non-load bearing interior walls, in good order and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear (whether or not the need for such
repairs occurred as a result of Lessee’s use, any prior use, the elements or the age of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof), and, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Articles 14 or 15, with reasonable promptness, make
all necessary and appropriate repairs thereto of every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition existing prior to the commencement of the Term of this Lease
(concealed or otherwise), or required by any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Leased property, except as to the structural elements of the Leased Improvements and underground utilities. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease,
unless the need for compliance with Section 9.1(a) is caused by Lessee’s negligence or willful misconduct or that of Lessee’s employees or agents, Lessee shall not be required to bear the costs of complying with Section
9.1(a) with respect to items classified as either (i) capital items under generally accepted accounting principles, or (ii) Fixtures in, on, or under any Facility or its components, except to the extent (X) that amounts are available therefor
from Lessor under Article 40 or otherwise, or (Y) required under Articles 14 and 15 on the conditions set forth therein. 
  
 (c) Article 40 sets forth the only obligations of Lessor to fund the cost of any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations
or renewals of any nature or description to the Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen, or to make any expenditure whatsoever with respect thereto, in connection with this Lease, or to maintain the Leased Property
in any way. Lessee hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the expense of Lessor pursuant to any law in effect at the time of the execution of this Lease or hereafter enacted. Lessor shall have the right to give,
record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility under any mechanic’s lien laws now or hereafter existing. 
  
 (d) Nothing contained in this Lease and no action or inaction by Lessor shall be construed as (i) constituting the request of Lessor,
expressed or implied, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer, materialman or vendor to or for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property for the construction, alteration, additional repair or
demolition of or to the Leased Property or any part thereof, or (ii) giving Lessee any right, power or permission to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion
as would permit the making of any claim against Lessor in respect thereof or to make any agreement that may create, or in any way be the basis for any right, title, interest, lien, claim or other encumbrance upon the estate of Lessor in the Leased
Property, or any portion thereof. 
  

 -28- 








 (e) Lessee will, upon the expiration or prior termination of the Term, vacate and
surrender the Leased Property to Lessor in the condition in which the Leased Property was originally received from Lessor, except as repaired, rebuilt, restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions of this Lease and except
for ordinary wear and tear (subject to the obligation of Lessee to maintain the Leased Property in accordance with Section 9.1(a) above during the entire Term of this Lease), or damage by casualty or Condemnation (subject to the obligations
of Lessee to restore or repair as set forth in this Lease). 
  
 9.2 Encroachments, Restrictions, Etc. If any of the Leased Improvements, at any time, materially encroach upon any property, street or right-of-way adjacent to the Leased Property, or violate the agreements or conditions contained in
any lawful restrictive covenant or other agreement affecting the Leased Property, or any part thereof, or impair the rights of others under any easement or right-of-way to which the Leased Property is subject, then promptly upon the request of
Lessor or at the behest of any Person affected by any such encroachment, violation or impairment, Lessee shall cooperate with Lessor, at Lessor’s expense, subject to any title insurance insuring against such matter and any right to contest the
existence of any encroachment, violation or impairment and, in such case, in the event of an adverse final determination, either (a) obtain valid and effective waivers or settlements of all claims, liabilities and damages resulting from each such
encroachment, violation or impairment, whether the same shall affect Lessor or Lessee, or (b) make such changes in the Leased Improvements, and take such other actions, as are reasonably practicable to remove such encroachment, and to end such
violation or impairment, including, if necessary, the alteration of any of the Leased Improvements, and in any event take all such actions as may be necessary in order to be able to continue the operation of the Leased Improvements for the Primary
Intended Use substantially in the manner and to the extent the Leased Improvements were operated prior to the assertion of such violation, impairment or encroachment. Any such alterations shall be made by Lessee in conformity with the applicable

termination of this Lease shall pass to and become the property of Lessor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if Lessor approves of
any Alterations, Lessor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to require Lessee to deliver to Lessor funds for such Alterations in an amount deemed by Lessor, in Lessor’s reasonable discretion, to be adequate of such Alterations, which
funds shall be disbursed by Lessor in accordance with the practices of commercially reasonable construction lenders in the jurisdiction in which the Leased Property is located. 
  
 10.2 Salvage. All materials which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of repairs required by

non-structural repairs, additions and improvements to the Leased Improvements, including, without limitation, the addition of hotel rooms, the alteration of the facade of the Leased Property and the renovation of guest rooms. Lessee shall cooperate
in Lessor’s undertaking such work, provided Lessee shall have no obligation to pay any third party costs in connection therewith, and further provided Lessee acknowledges that, except as provided in Section 5.3 of Article 10, it
shall not be entitled to any abatement of rent, offset or deduction as a result of such work, regardless of whether the work involves the temporary closure of the hotel or portions thereof.

 ARTICLE 13 
 INSURANCE 
  
 13.1 General Insurance Requirements. 
  
 (a) Coverages by Lessor. During the Term of this
Lease, Lessor shall at Lessor’s expense, without reimbursement from Lessee, at all times keep the Leased Property insured with the kinds and amounts of insurance described in Section 6.1 of the Loan Agreement (except to the extent such
insurance is required to be kept by the Lessee pursuant to Section 13.1(b) below). This insurance shall be written by companies authorized to issue insurance in the State. The policies must name Lessor or Lender, if applicable, as the insured
or as an additional named insured, as the case may be 
  
 (b) Coverages by Lessee. During the term of this Lease, Lessee shall at Lessee’s expense keep the insurance described below. This insurance shall be written by companies authorized to issue insurance in the State and otherwise
acceptable to Lessor. If required by Lessor, the policies must name Lessor or Lender as additional insureds, as applicable. 
  
 (i) Fidelity bonds with limits and deductibles as may be reasonably requested by Lessor, covering Lessee’s employees in job
classifications normally bonded under prudent hotel management practices in the United States or otherwise required by law; 
  

 -31- 








 (ii) Workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with all Legal Requirements for
all persons employed by Lessee on the Leased Property to the extent necessary to protect Lessor and the Leased Property against Lessee’s worker’s compensation claims; 
  
 (iii) Vehicle liability insurance for owned, nonowned, and hired vehicles, including rented and leased
vehicles containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000; 
  
 (iv) Comprehensive casualty insurance providing protection against any peril included within the classification “all risks” insurance coverage, together with insurance against flood, sewage backup, sprinkler
damage, vandalism, and malicious mischief, to the extent of the Full Replacement Cost of Lessee’s Personal Property and Inventory, the proceeds of which will be distributed in accordance with Section 14.1 below; and 
  
 (v) Such other insurance as Lessor may reasonably request,
provided, that such other insurance is customary for facilities such as the Leased Property and the operation thereof. 
  
 13.2 Replacement Cost. The term “Full Replacement Cost” as used herein shall mean the actual replacement cost of the Leased
Property requiring replacement from time to time including an increased cost of construction endorsement, if available, and the cost of debris removal. In the event either party believes that full replacement cost (the then-replacement cost less
such exclusions) has increased or decreased at any time during the Lease Term, it shall have the right to have such full replacement cost re-determined. 
  
 13.3 Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance policies carried by Lessor or Lessee covering the Leased Property, the Fixtures, any Facility or
Lessee’s Personal Property, including, without limitation, contents, fire and casualty insurance, shall expressly waive any right of subrogation on the part of the insurer against the other party. The parties hereto agree that their policies
will include such waiver clause or endorsement so long as the same are obtainable without extra cost, and in the event of such an extra charge the other party, at its election, may pay the same, but shall not be obligated to do so. Each party agrees
to seek recovery from any applicable insurance coverage prior to seeking recovery against the other. 
  
 13.4 Form Satisfactory, Etc. All of the policies of insurance referred to in this Article 13 shall be written in a form, with deductibles
and by insurance companies reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and also shall meet and satisfy the requirements of any ground lessor, lender or franchisor having any interest in the Leased Premises. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor policies or
certificates of the insurance required under 13.1 above as of their effective date (and, with respect to any renewal policy, thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the existing policy), and in the event of the failure of Lessee either to obtain
such insurance as herein called for or to pay the premiums therefor, or to deliver such policies or certificates thereof to Lessor at the times required, Lessor shall be entitled, but shall have no obligation, to obtain such insurance and 

  

 -32- 








 
pay the premiums therefor, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for any premium or premiums paid by Lessor for the coverages required under this Section upon
written demand therefor, and repay the same within thirty (30) days after Notice of such failure from Lessor shall constitute an Event of Default within the meaning of Section 16.1(d). Each insurer mentioned in this Article 13 shall
agree, by endorsement to the policy or policies issued by it, or by independent instrument furnished to Lessor thirty (30) days’ written notice before Lessor, the policy or policies in question shall be materially altered, allowed to expire or
canceled. 
  
 13.5 Blanket Policy. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Article 13, Lessee or Lessor may bring the insurance provided for herein within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Lessee or Lessor, provided,
however, that the coverage afforded to Lessor and Lessee will not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Lease by reason of the use of such
blanket policy of insurance, and provided further that the requirements of this Article 13 are otherwise satisfied. 
  
 13.6 Separate Insurance. Lessee shall not on Lessee’s own or pursuant to the request or requirement of any third party, take out separate
insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in this Article 13 to be furnished, or increase the amount of any then existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all
parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of the insurance, including in all cases Lessor, are included therein as additional insureds, and the loss is payable under such additional separate insurance in the same manner as losses
are payable under this Lease. Lessee shall immediately provide Notice to Lessor that Lessee has obtained any such separate insurance or of the increasing of any of the amounts of the then existing insurance. 
  
 13.7 Reports on Insurance Claims. Lessee shall promptly investigate
and make a complete and timely written report to the appropriate insurance company as to all accidents, claims for damage relating to the ownership, operation, and maintenance of any Facility, any damage or destruction to any Facility and the
estimated cost of repair thereof and shall prepare any and all reports required by any insurance company in connection therewith. All such reports shall be timely filed with the insurance company as required under the terms of the insurance policy
involved, and a final copy of such report shall be furnished to Lessor. 
  
 ARTICLE 14 
 DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION 
  
 14.1 Insurance Proceeds. Subject to the rights of Lender under the Loan Documents, all proceeds payable by reason of
any loss or damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by Article 13 of this Lease shall be paid to Lender and held in trust by Lender in an interest-bearing account for
reconstruction or repair, as the case may be, of any damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and, if applicable, shall be paid out by Lender from time to time for the reasonable costs of such reconstruction or repair
in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; provided, however, in the event that the Leased Property is not covered by a Loan the foregoing provisions applicable to Lender shall apply to Lessor and such proceeds shall be paid out by Lessor
from time to time for the reasonable costs of such reconstruction or repair upon satisfaction of 

  

 -33- 








 
reasonable terms and conditions specified by Lessor. To the extent any such proceeds under such insurance policies are released or otherwise paid by Lender
to Lessor (or, if no Lender, received directly by Lessor) and are not required to be applied in any manner under the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, or this Lease, then such funds shall be immediately paid over by Lessor to Lessee as is
required to fairly compensate Lessee for any loss it suffers as a result of such loss or damage. All salvage resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Lessor. 
  
 14.2 Reconstruction in the Event of Damage or Destruction. 
  
 (a) Total Destruction. If during the Term the Leased
Property is totally destroyed and the Facility thereby is rendered Unsuitable for its Primary Intended Use, Lessee shall restore the Facility to substantially the same condition as existed immediately before the damage or destruction and otherwise
in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Such damage or destruction shall not terminate this Lease, and the insurance proceeds shall be paid out by Lessor from time to time for the reasonable costs of such restoration upon satisfaction of
reasonable terms and conditions specified by Lessor, and any excess proceeds remaining after such restoration shall be retained by Lessor. 
  
 (b) Partial Damage. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, if during the Term the Leased Property is partially destroyed, but
the Facility is not thereby rendered Unsuitable for its Primary Intended Use, Lessee shall restore the Facility to substantially the same condition as existed immediately before the damage or destruction and otherwise in accordance with the terms of
this Lease. Such damage or destruction shall not terminate this Lease, and the insurance proceeds shall be paid out by Lessor from time to time for the reasonable costs of such restoration upon satisfaction of reasonable terms and conditions
specified by Lessor, and any excess proceeds remaining after such restoration shall be retained by Lessor. 
  
 14.3 Lessee’s Property. Lessor shall have no obligation to insure Lessee’s Personal Property against any loss of or damage to any of
Lessee’s Personal Property. Lessee may separately insure its personal property, provided, however, no such payments under such insurance shall diminish or reduce the insurance payments otherwise payable to or for the benefit of Lessor
hereunder. 
  
 14.4 Abatement of Rent. Unless this Lease is
terminated in accordance herewith, any damage or destruction due to casualty notwithstanding, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Lessee’s obligation to make rental payments and to pay all other charges required by this Lease
shall be equitably abated during any period required for the applicable repair and restoration. 
  
 14.5 Damage Near End of Term. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article 14 appearing to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of
any Facility renders it unsuitable for its Primary Intended Use occurs during the last 24 months of the Term, then either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to such Facility by giving Notice to the other within thirty
(30) days after the date of damage or destruction, whereupon all Accrued Rent with respect 

  

 -34- 








 
to such Facility shall be paid immediately, and this Lease shall automatically terminate with respect to such Facility five (5) days after the date of such
Notice. 
  
 14.6 Waiver. Lessee hereby waives any statutory
or judicially created rights of termination that may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of any Facility that Lessor is obligated to restore or may restore under any of the provisions of this Lease. 
  
 ARTICLE 15 
 EMINENT DOMAIN 
  
 15.1 Definitions. (a) “Condemnation” means a Taking resulting from (1) the exercise of any governmental power, whether by legal proceedings or otherwise, by a Condemnor, and (2) a voluntary
sale or transfer by Lessor to any Condemnor, either under threat of condemnation or while legal proceedings for condemnation are pending. 
  
 (b) “Date of Taking” means the date the Condemnor has the right to possession of the property being condemned.

  
 (c) “Award” means all
compensation, sums or anything of value awards, paid or received on a total or partial Condemnation. 
  
 (d) “Condemnor” means any public or quasi-public authority, or private corporation or individual, having the power of
Condemnation. 
  
 15.2 Parties’ Rights and
Obligations. If during the Term there is a Condemnation of all or any part of the Leased Property at a particular Facility or any interest in this Lease, the rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessees shall be determined by this Article
15, subject in all respects to any and all rights of Lender under the Loan Documents. If Lender releases to Lessor any Award in connection with a Condemnation or Taking of all or any part of the Leased Property at a Facility that is not required
to be applied in any manner by the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, then such funds shall be immediately paid over by Lessor to Lessee in such amounts as is required to fairly compensate Lessee for any loss it suffers as a result of such
Condemnation or Taking. 
  
 15.3 Total Taking. If title to
the fee of the whole of the Leased Property at a particular Facility is condemned by any Condemnor, this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the Date of Taking by the Condemnor. If title to the fee of less than the whole of the Leased Property is
so taken or condemned, which nevertheless renders the Leased Property Unsuitable or Uneconomic for its Primary Intended Use, Lessee and Lessor shall each have the option, by notice to the other, at any time prior to the Date of Taking, to terminate
this Lease as of the Date of Taking. Upon such date, if such Notice has been given, this Lease shall thereupon cease and terminate. All Base Rent, Percentage Rent and Additional Charges paid or payable by Lessee hereunder shall be apportioned as of
the Date of Taking, and Lessee shall promptly pay Lessor such amounts. 
  
 15.4 Partial Taking. If title to less than the whole of the Leased Property at a particular Facility is condemned, and such Leased Property is still suitable for its Primary Intended Use, and not Uneconomic for its Primary Intended
Use, or if Lessee or Lessor is entitled but neither 

  

 -35- 








 
elects to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 15.3, (a) Lessee, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense (subject to Lessor’s contribution
as set forth below) shall with all reasonable dispatch restore the untaken portion of any Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be
possible under the circumstances) as the Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to the Condemnation, unless such restoration extends beyond the expiration of the Term, in which case Lessee shall not be required to make such restoration, and
(b) Lessee shall continue to pay, in the manner and at the terms herein specified, full amounts of Base Rent and Additional Charges with an equitable reduction for the portion of the Leased Property so condemned. 
  
 15.5 Temporary Taking. If the whole or any part of the Leased Property
at a particular Facility or of Lessee’s interest under this Lease is condemned by any Condemnor for its temporary use or occupancy, this Lease shall not terminate by reason thereof, but Lessee shall continue to pay, in the manner and at the
terms herein specified, full amounts of Base Rent and Additional Charges with an equitable reduction for the portion of the Leased Property so condemned. Except only to the extent that Lessee may be prevented from so doing pursuant to the terms of
the order of the Condemnor, Lessee shall continue to perform and observe all of the other terms, covenants, conditions and obligations hereof on the part of the Lessee to be performed and observed, as though such Condemnation had not occurred. In
the event of any Condemnation described in this Section 15.6 the entire amount of any Award made for such Condemnation allocable to the Term of this Lease, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Lessor. Lessee
covenants that upon the termination of any such period of temporary use or occupancy Lessee’s will, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the restoration of the Leased Property as
nearly as possible to the condition the Leased Property was in immediately prior to such Condemnation, with such alterations as may be approved by Lessor and otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Lease and Lessor’s obligations under
the Loan Documents, unless such period of temporary use or occupancy extends beyond the expiration of the Term, in which case Lessee shall not be required to make such restoration. 
  
 15.6 Allocation of Award. The total Award made with respect to the Leased Property or for loss of rent, or for
Lessor’s loss of business beyond the Term, shall be solely the property of and payable to Lessor. Any Award made for loss of Lessee’s business during the remaining Term, if any, for the taking of Lessee’s Personal Property, or for
removal and relocation expenses of Lessee in any such proceedings shall be the sole property of and payable to Lessee. In any Condemnation proceedings Lessor and Lessee shall each seek its Award in conformity herewith, at its respective expense;
provided, however, Lessee shall not initiate, prosecute acquiesce in any proceedings that may result in a diminution of any Award payable to Lessor. 
  
 ARTICLE 16 
 DEFAULT; REMEDIES

  
 16.1 Events of Default. If any one or more of the
following events (individually, an “Event of Default”) occurs: 
  
 (a) if Lessee fails to make payment of the Base Rent within thirty (30) days after the same becomes due and payable ; 
  

 -36- 








 (b) if Lessee fails to make payment of Percentage Rent within thirty (30) days after the
same becomes due and payable; 
  
 (c) if Lessee
fails to observe or perform any other term, covenant or condition of this Lease and such failure is not cured by Lessee within a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by the Lessee of Notice thereof from Lessor, unless such failure cannot with
due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) days, in which case it shall not be deemed an Event of Default if Lessee proceeds promptly and with due diligence to cure the failure and diligently completes the curing thereof provided,
however, in no event shall such cure period extend beyond ninety (90) days after such Notice; or 
  
 (d) if the Lessee shall file a petition in bankruptcy or reorganization for an arrangement pursuant to any federal or state bankruptcy law
or any similar federal or state law, or shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall admit in writing Lessee’s inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or if a petition
proposing the adjudication of the Lessee as a bankrupt or its reorganization pursuant to any federal or state bankruptcy law or any similar federal or state law shall be filed in any court and the Lessee shall be adjudicated a bankrupt and such
adjudication shall not be vacated or set aside or stayed within sixty (60) days after the entry of an order in respect thereof, or if a receiver of the Lessee or of the whole or substantially all of the assets of the Lessee shall be appointed in any
proceeding brought by the Lessee or if any such receiver, trustee or liquidator shall be appointed in any proceeding brought against the Lessee and shall not be vacated or set aside or stayed within sixth (60) days after such appointment; or

  
 (e) if Lessee is liquidated or dissolved, or
begins proceedings toward such liquidation or dissolution, or, in any manner, permits the sale or divestiture of substantially all of Lessee’s assets; or 
  

(f) if the estate or interest of Lessee in the Leased Property or any part thereof is voluntarily or involuntarily transferred,
assigned, conveyed, levied upon or attached in any proceeding (unless Lessee is contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance with Article 12 hereof); or 
  
 (g) if, except as a result of damage, destruction or a partial or complete Condemnation, Lessee voluntarily
ceases operations on the Leased Property; or 
  
 (h) if the Franchise Agreement with respect to any Facility has been terminated by the franchisor as a result of any action or failure to act by the Lessee, other than a failure to complete improvements required by the franchisor because
the Lessor has not provided funds for such improvements; 
  
 then, and in any such event, Lessor may exercise one or more remedies available to it herein or at law or in equity, including but not limited to Lessor’s right to terminate this Lease by giving Lessee not less
than ten (10) days Notice of such termination except in the case of a default under Sections 16.1(d) or (e) in which case no Notice shall be required. 
  

No Event of Default (other than a failure to make a payment of money) shall be deemed to exist under clause (c) during any time the
curing thereof is prevented by an 

  

 -37- 








 
Unavoidable Delay, provided that upon the cessation of such Unavoidable Delay, Lessee remedies such default or Event of Default without further delay.

  
 16.2 Surrender. If an Event of Default occurs (and the
event giving rise to such Event of Default has not been cured within the curative period relating thereto as set forth in Section 16.1) and is continuing, whether or not this Lease has been terminated pursuant to Section 16.1, Lessee
shall, if requested by Lessor so to do, immediately surrender and assign to Lessor or Lessor’s designee the Leased Property including, without limitation, any and all books, records, files, licenses, permits and keys relating thereto, and quit
the same and Lessor may enter upon and repossess the Leased Property by reasonable force, summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and may remove Lessee and all other persons and any and all personal property from the Leased Property, subject to
rights of any hotel guests and to any requirement of law. Lessee hereby waives any and all requirements of applicable laws for service of notice to re-enter the Leased Property. Except as required by law, Lessor shall be under no obligation to, but
may if it so chooses, relet the Leased Property or otherwise mitigate Lessor’s damages. 
  
 16.3 Damages. Neither (a) the termination of this Lease, (b) the repossession of the Leased Property, (c) the failure of Lessor to relet the Leased Property, nor (d) the reletting of all or any portion thereof,
shall relieve Lessee of Lessee’s liability and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or reletting to the maximum extent permitted by law. In the event of any such termination, Lessee shall
forthwith pay to Lessor all Rent due and payable with respect to the Leased Property to and including the date of such termination. 
  
 In addition, Lessee shall forthwith pay to Lessor, at Lessor’s option, as and for liquidated and agreed current damages for
Lessee’s default, either: 
  
 (1) Without
termination of Lessee’s right to possession of the Leased Property, each installment of Rent (including Percentage Rent as determined below) and other sums payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease as the same becomes due and payable, which
Rent and other sums shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate from the date due until paid or otherwise discharged, and Lessor may enforce, by action or otherwise, any other term or covenant of this Lease; or 
  
 (2) the sum of: 
  
 (A) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of
termination, repossession or reletting, and 
  
 (B) the worth at the time of termination, repossession or reletting of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of termination, repossession or reletting, exceeds the amount of such rental loss that
Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided and as reduced for rentals received after the time of termination, repossession or reletting, if and to the extent required by applicable law, and 
  
 (C) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all
the detriment proximately caused by Lessee’s failure to perform Lessee’s obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom. The worth 

  

 -38- 








 
at the time of termination, repossession or reletting of the amount referred to in subparagraph (B) is computed by discounting such amount at the discount
rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). 
  
 Percentage Rent for the purposes of this Section 16.3 shall be a sum equal to (i) the average of the annual amounts of the Percentage Rent for the three Fiscal Years immediately preceding the Fiscal Year in
which the termination, re-entry or repossession takes place, or (ii) if three Fiscal Years shall not have elapsed, the average of the Percentage Rent during the preceding Fiscal Years during which this Lease was in effect, or (iii) if one Fiscal
Year has not elapsed, the amount derived by annualizing the Percentage Rent from the effective date of this Lease. 
  
 16.4 Waiver. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 16.1, Lessee waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any right
to a trial by jury in the event of summary proceedings to enforce the remedies set forth in this Article 16, and (b) the benefit of any laws now or hereafter in force exempting property from liability for rent or for debt. 
  
 16.5 Application of Funds. Any payments received by Lessor under any
of the provisions of this Lease during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default shall be applied to Lessee’s obligations in the order that Lessor may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State. 
  
 ARTICLE 17 
 LESSOR’S RIGHT TO CURE 
  
 If Lessee fails to make any payment or to perform any act required to be made or performed under this Lease including, without limitation, Lessee’s failure to comply with the terms of any Franchise Agreement
other than a failure to complete improvements required by the franchisor because the Lessor has not provided Lessee with the funds therefor, and fails to cure the same within the relevant time periods provided in Section 16.1, Lessor, without
waiving or releasing any obligation of Lessee, and without waiving or releasing any obligation or default, may (but shall be under no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of
Lessee, and may, to the extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property for such purpose and, subject to Section 16.4, take all such action thereon as, in Lessor’s opinion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry
shall be deemed an eviction of Lessee. All sums so paid by Lessor and all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, in each case to the extent permitted by law) so incurred, together with a late
charge thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date on which such sums or expenses are paid or incurred by Lessor, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor on demand. The obligations of Lessee and rights of Lessor contained in
this Article 17 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
  

 -39- 








 ARTICLE 18 
 REIT REQUIREMENTS. 
  
 Lessee understands that in order for Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. to qualify as a REIT, the following requirements (the “REIT Requirements”) must be satisfied: 
  
 (a) Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, the average of the Fair Market Value at the beginning and end of a Fiscal Year of Lessor’s personal Property that is leased to the Lessee under this Lease shall not exceed fifteen percent 15% of the average of the aggregate
fair market values of all of the Leased Property at the beginning and at the end of such Fiscal Year (the “Personal Property Limitation”). If Lessor reasonably anticipates that the Personal Property Limitation will be exceeded with
respect to the Leased Property for any Fiscal Year, Lessor shall notify Lessee, and Lessee either (i) shall purchase at fair market value any personal property anticipated to be in excess of the Personal Property Limitation (“Excess Personal
Property”) either from the Lessor or a third party or (ii) shall lease the Excess Personal Property from a third party. In either case, Lessee’s Rent obligation shall be equitably adjusted. In addition, in the case of the purchase or
lease of Excess Personal Property by the Lessee from a third party, the Lessor’s capital expenditure reserve obligation pursuant to Article 34 shall be appropriately decreased to reflect the reduced need for Lessor-owned personal
property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, Lessee shall not be responsible in any way for determining whether or not Lessee has exceeded or will exceed the Personal Property Limitation, and shall not be liable to Lessor or
any of Lessor’s shareholders in the event that the Personal Property Limitation is exceeded, as long as Lessee meets Lessee’s obligation to acquire or lease any Excess Personal Property as provided above. This Section 18 is intended
to ensure that the Rent qualifies as “rents from real property,” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provisions thereto, and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with such intent.

  
 (b) Anything contained in this Lease to the
contrary notwithstanding, Lessee shall not sublet the Leased Property on any basis such that the rental to be paid by the sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (i) the net income or net profits derived by the business
activities of the sublessee, or (ii) any other formula such that any portion of the Rent would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision
thereto. 
  
 (c) Lessee cannot sublet the Leased
Property to any Person in which Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc., owns, directly or indirectly, a ten percent (10%) or more interest, within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code, or any similar or successor provisions thereto.

  
 (d) Lessee agrees to make an election to be,
and to operate as a “taxable REIT subsidiary” of Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. within the meaning of Section 856(e) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto. 
  
 (e) Lessee shall not (i) directly or indirectly operate or manage a “lodging facility” within the
meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(D)(ii) of the Code or a “health care facility” within the meaning of Section 856(e)(6)(D)(ii) or (ii) directly or indirectly provide to any other Person (under a franchise, license, or otherwise) rights to any
brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated; provided, however, that Lessee may provide such rights to Manager to operate or manage a lodging facility as long as such rights are held by Lessee as a franchisee,
licensee, or in a similar capacity and such lodging facility is either owned by Lessee or is leased to Lessee by Lessor or one of Lessor’s Affiliates. 
  

 -40- 








 (f) Lessee agrees, and agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause Lessee’s
Affiliates, to use their best efforts to permit the REIT Requirements to be satisfied. Lessee agrees and agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause Lessee’s Affiliates, to cooperate in good faith with Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. and Lessor to
ensure that the REIT Requirements are satisfied, including but not limited to, providing Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. with information about the ownership of Lessee, and Lessee’s Affiliates to the extent that such information is reasonably
available. Lessee agrees, and agrees to use reasonable efforts to cause Lessee’s Affiliates, upon request by Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc., and, where appropriate, at Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc.’s expense, to take reasonable action
necessary to ensure compliance with the REIT Requirements. Immediately after becoming aware that the REIT Requirements are not, or will not be, satisfied, Lessee shall notify, or use reasonable efforts to cause Lessee’s Affiliates to notify,
Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. of such noncompliance. 
  
 (g) Both Lessee and Lessor agree that no provision of this lease shall be construed so as to cause Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. to fail to qualify as a REIT. 
  
 (h) Lessee shall not permit any wagering activities to be conducted at or in connection with the Leased
Property by any Person who is engaged in the business of accepting wagers and who is legally authorized to engage in such business at or in connection with the Leased Property.

of the consolidated entity; 
  
 (ix) pay

in possession of the Leased Property after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, such possession shall be as a tenant at sufferance during which time Lessee shall pay as rental each month two times the aggregate of (a) one-twelfth of
the aggregate Base Rent and Percentage Rent payable with respect to the last Fiscal Year of the Term, (b) all Additional Charges accruing during the applicable month and (c) all other sums, if any, payable by Lessee under this Lease with respect to

sufferance, to continue Lessee’s occupancy and use of the Leased Property. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Lessor to the holding over of Lessee after the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease. 
  
 ARTICLE 21

 During the Term, the risk of loss or of the decrease in the enjoyment and beneficial use of the Leased Property in consequence of the damage or
destruction thereof by fire, the elements, casualties, thefts, riots, wars or otherwise, or in consequence of foreclosures, attachments, levies or executions (other than those caused by Lessor and those claiming from, through or under Lessor) is
assumed by Lessee, and, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Lease by Lessor pursuant to Section 34.3, Lessor shall in no event be answerable or accountable therefor, nor shall any of the events mentioned

insurance, and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance or self-insurance, but subject to the last sentence of Section 13.4 if any insurance coverage is applicable, Section 16.4 and Article 8, Lessee will
protect, indemnify, hold harmless and defend Lessor from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), to the
extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Lessor Indemnified Parties by reason of: (a) any 

  

 -44- 








 
accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Leased Property or adjoining sidewalks, including without
limitation any claims under liquor liability, “dram shop” or similar laws, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Lessee or any of Lessee’s agents, employees or invitee of
the Leased Property or Lessee’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entitles or other third parties to which a Lessor Indemnified Party is made a party or participant related to such use, misuse, non-use,
condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof by Lessee or any of Lessee’s agents, employees or invitee, including any failure of Lessee or any of Lessee’s agents, employees or invitee to perform any obligations under this Lease or
imposed by applicable law (other than arising out of Condemnation proceedings), (c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Lessee pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Lease, (d) any failure on the part of Lessee to perform or comply

defend Lessee Indemnified Parties from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Lessee Indemnified Parties as a result of the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor arising in connection with this Lease. 
  
 22.3 Payments by Indemnifying Party. Any amounts that become payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article 22 shall be paid within ten (10) days after liability therefor on the part of the
Indemnifying Party is determined by litigation or otherwise, and if not timely paid, shall bear a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue Rate from the date of such determination to the date of payment. An Indemnifying Party, at
such Indemnifying Party’s expense, shall contest, resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or instituted against the Indemnified party. The Indemnified Party, at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, shall be entitled
to participate in any such claim, action or proceeding, and the Indemnifying Party may not compromise or otherwise dispose of the same without the consent of the Indemnified Party, which may not be unreasonably withheld. Nothing herein shall be
construed as indemnifying a Lessor Indemnified Party or a Lessee Indemnified Party against its own grossly negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct. 
  
 22.4 Survival. Lessee’s or Lessor’s liability for a breach of the provisions of this Article 22 shall survive any termination of
this Lease.

or (b) sublet any retail or restaurant portion of the Leased Improvements in the normal course of the Primary Intended Use . In the case of a subletting, the sublessee shall comply with the provisions of Section 23.2, and in the case of an

 -45- 








 
and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Lease on the part of Lessee to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally
liable with Lessee for the performance thereof. Notwithstanding the above, Lessee may assign this Lease to an Affiliate without the consent of Lessor; provided that any such assignee assumes in writing and agrees to keep and perform all of the terms
of this Lease on the part of the Lessee to be kept and preformed and shall be and become jointly and severally liable with Lessee for the performance thereof. In case of either an assignment or subletting made during the Term, Lessee shall remain
primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Lessee hereunder. An original counterpart of each such sublease
and assignment and assumption, duly executed by Lessee and such sublessee or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor, shall be delivered promptly to Lessor. 
  
 23.2 Attornment. Lessee shall insert in each sublease permitted under
Section 23.1 provisions to the effect that (a) such sublease is subject and subordinate to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to the rights of Lessor hereunder, (b) if this Lease terminates before the expiration of such
sublease, the sublessee thereunder will, at Lessor’s option, attorn to Lessor and waive any right the sublessee may have to terminate the sublease or to surrender possession thereunder as a result of the termination of this Lease, and (c) if
the sublessee receives a written Notice from Lessor or Lessor’s assignees, if any, stating that an uncured Event of Default exists under this Lease, the sublessee shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under said sublease
directly to the party giving such Notice, or as such party may direct. All rentals received from the sublessee by Lessor or Lessor’s assignees, if any, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Lessee under this Lease.

permit Lessor and Lessor’s authorized representatives as frequently as reasonably requested by Lessor to inspect the Leased Property and Lessee’s accounts and records pertaining thereto, and all records maintained by any franchisor under a
Franchise Agreement and make copies thereof, during usual business hours upon reasonable advance Notice, subject only to any business confidentiality requirements reasonably requested by Lessee. 
  
 ARTICLE 26 
 NO WAIVER 
  
 No failure by Lessor or Lessee to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance
of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term. To the extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Lease, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other
than existing or subsequent breach. 
  
 ARTICLE 27

Lease or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Lessor or Lessee of any one or more of such rights, powers and
remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Lessor or Lessee of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies. 
  

 -47-

 No surrender to Lessor of this Lease or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Lessor and no act by Lessor or any representative or
agent of Lessor, other than such a written acceptance by Lessor, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender. 
  
 ARTICLE 29 
 NO MERGER OF TITLE

  
 There shall be no merger of this Lease or of the leasehold
estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person or entity may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly: (a) this Lease or the leasehold estate created hereby or any interest in this Lease or such leasehold estate and (b) the fee

 ARTICLE 30 
 TRANSFER OF LEASED PROPERTY; SUBORDINATION 
  
 30.1 Conveyance by Lessor. If Lessor or any successor owner of the Leased Property conveys the Leased Property other than as security for a debt,
and the grantee or transferee of the Leased Property expressly assumes all obligations of Lessor hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Lessor or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall
thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Lessor under this Lease arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer as to the Leased Property and all such future liabilities and obligations
shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner. 
  
 30.2
Subordination to Mortgage. The rights and interest of Lessee under this Lease and any and all liens, rights and interests (whether choate or inchoate and including, without limitation, all mechanic’s and materialmen’s liens under
applicable law) owed, claimed or held, by Lessee in and to the Leased Property, are and shall be in all respects subject, subordinate and inferior to the Loan and the Loan Documents and to the liens, security interests and all other rights and
interests created or to be created therein or thereby for the benefit of Lender, and securing the repayment of the Loan including, without limitation, those created under the Mortgage covering, amount other things, the Leased Property, and filed or
to be filed of record in the public records maintained for the recording of mortgages in the jurisdiction where the Leased Property is located, and all renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, spreaders, consolidations, amendments,
modifications and replacements thereof and to all sums secured thereby and advances made thereunder with the same force and effect as if the Loan had been executed and delivered and the Mortgage recorded prior to the execution and delivery of this
Lease. Lender, at Lender’s option and in its sole discretion, may elect to give the rights and interest of Lessee under this Lease priority over the lien of the Mortgage. In the event of such election, the rights and interest of Lessee under
this Lease automatically shall have priority over the lien of the Mortgage and no additional consent or instrument shall be necessary or required. However, Lessee agrees to execute and deliver whatever instruments may be reasonably requested by
Lender for such purposes, and in the event Lessee fails so to do after demand in 

  

 -48- 








 
writing, Lessee does hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee’s attorney-in-fact and in its name, place and stead so to do.

  
 ARTICLE 31 
 QUIET ENJOYMENT 
  
 So long a Lessee pays all Rent as the same becomes due and complies with all of the terms of this Lease and performs Lessee’s obligations hereunder,
in each case within the applicable grace periods, if any, Lessee shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term hereof, free of any claim or other action by Lessor or anyone claiming by, through or under Lessor,
but subject to all liens and encumbrances subject to which the Leased Property was conveyed to Lessor or hereafter consented to by Lessee or provided for herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall have the right by separate and independent
action to pursue any claim it may have against Lessor as a result of a breach by Lessor of the covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in this Section.

encumbrance or title retention agreement (“Encumbrance”) upon the Leased Property, or any portion thereof or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other means of financing or refinancing. Pursuant to Section

interest granted to Lender pursuant 

  

 -49-

with respect to the Leased Property. 
  
 34.2 Lessee’s
Right to Cure. Subject to the provisions of Section 34.3, if Lessor breaches any covenant to be performed by it under this Lease, Lessee, after Notice to and demand upon Lessor, without waiving or releasing any obligation hereunder, and
in addition to all other remedies available to Lessee, may (but shall be under no obligation at any time thereafter to) make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Lessor. All sums so paid by Lessee and all costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) so incurred, together with interest thereon at the Overdue Rate from the date on which such sums or expenses are paid or incurred by Lessee, shall be paid by Lessor to Lessee
on demand or, following entry of a final, nonappealable judgment against Lessor for such sums, may be offset by Lessee against the Base Rent payments next accruing or coming due. The rights of Lessee hereunder to cure and to secure payment from
Lessor in accordance with this Section 34.2 shall survive the termination of this Lease with respect to the Leased Property. 
  
 34.3 Breach by Lessor. It shall be a breach of this Lease if Lessor fails to observe or perform any term, covenant or condition of this Lease on
Lessor’s part to be performed and such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Lessee, unless such failure cannot with due diligence be cured within a period of thirty (30) days, in which case such failure
shall not be deemed to continue if Lessor, within such thirty (30)-day period, proceeds promptly and with due diligence to cure the failure and diligently completes the curing thereof for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days. The time within
which Lessor shall be obligated to cure any such failure also shall be subject to extension of time due to the occurrence of any Unavoidable Delay. Upon a breach by Lessor, Lessee shall be entitled to all available remedies at law and in equity.

  
 ARTICLE 35 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 35.1 Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) Survival of Claims. Anything contained in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, all claims against, and liabilities of,
Lessee or Lessor arising prior to any date of termination of this Lease shall survive such termination. 
  
 (b) Severability. If any term or provision of this Lease or any application thereof is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Lease and any other application of such term or provisions shall not be affected thereby. 
  
 (c) Maximum Interest Rate. If any late charges or any interest rate provided for in any provision of this Lease are based upon a
rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, the parties agree that such charges shall be fixed at the maximum permissible rate. 
  

 -50- 








 (d) Amendment. Neither this Lease nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived,

 ARTICLE 36 
 MEMORANDUM OF LEASE

  
 Lessor and Lessee shall promptly upon the request of
either enter into a short form memorandum of this Lease, in form suitable for recording under the laws of the State in which reference to this Lease, and all options contained herein, shall be made. Lessee shall pay all costs and expenses of

 ARTICLE 37

 [RESERVED] 
  
 ARTICLE 38 
 LESSOR’S OPTION TO
TERMINATE UPON SALE 
  
 In the event Lessor enters into a bona
fide contract to sell the Leased Property to a non-Affiliate, Lessor may terminate this Lease by giving not less than thirty (30) days prior Notice to Lessee of Lessor’s election to terminate this Lease effective upon the closing under such
contract. Effective upon such closing, this Lease shall terminate and be of no further force and effect except as to any obligations of the parties existing as of such date that survive termination of this Lease. As compensation for an early
termination, Lessor must within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the closing either (a) pay to the Lessee as a termination fee an amount equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of the net income (as calculated in accordance with GAAP) earned by
Lessee with respect to the Leased Property (but excluding any proceeds or other consideration attributable to the sale of the Leased Property) for the 12-month period ended as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such
termination; or (b) offer to lease to Lessee one or more comparable substitute hotel facilities (which facilities must be satisfactory to Lessee in Lessee’s reasonable discretion) pursuant to one or more leases that would create for Lessee
leasehold estates that have an aggregate fair market value equal to Lessee’s leasehold estate under the Lease determined as of the closing of the sale of the Leased Property. A termination payment is due to Lessee only if Lessee is not then in
default in the payment of Base Rent for more than thirty (30) days.

 ARTICLE 39 
 FRANCHISE AGREEMENT 
  
 To
the extent any of the provisions of any Franchise Agreement impose a greater obligation on Lessee than the corresponding provisions of this Lease, then Lessee shall be obligated to comply with, and to take all reasonable actions necessary to prevent
breaches or defaults under, the provisions of such Franchise Agreement. It is the intent of the parties hereto that, except as otherwise specifically provided by this Lease, Lessee shall comply in every respect with the provisions of any Franchise
Agreement so as to avoid any default thereunder during the term of this Lease. Lessor and Lessee agree to cooperate fully with each other in the event it becomes necessary to obtain a franchise extension or modification or a new franchise for the
Leased Property, provided, however, that Lessor shall pay the entire cost of any upgrades required by any franchisor. 
  
 ARTICLE 40

 40.1 Room Set-Aside. Lessee shall
repair or replace, or cause the Manager to repair or replace, in each Fiscal Year, Fixtures and Furniture and Equipment (a) as required by the terms of any Franchise Agreement, Management Agreement and/or the Loan Documents, (b) as required by
Article 9 and Article 39 and (c) otherwise when and in a manner it deems fit, to the extent funds are available therefor from amounts the Lessor is obligated to make available to Lessee under this Section 40.1 or otherwise makes
available to Lessee. During the Term, Lessee shall be entitled to receive an amount (herein referred to as the “Replacement Reserve Funds”) equal to the greater of (x) four percent (4%) of Gross Revenues from the Facility and (y)
the percentage of Gross Revenues from the Facility as set forth in the Management Agreement, or Franchise Agreement or Loan Agreement, whichever agreement is most restrictive, for repairing or replacing Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment. The
Replacement Reserve Funds shall be deposited into an account (the “Replacement Reserve Account”) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. Subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents, the Replacement Reserve Funds

repairing or replacing Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. The Replacement Reserve Funds shall be used by Lessee for periodic repairing or replacement of Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment at the
Leased Property in connection with the Primary Intended Use. To the extent any Furniture and Equipment and/or Fixtures is so purchased with the Replacement Reserve Funds such Furniture and Equipment and/or Fixtures shall become and at all times
remain the sole property of Lessor and Lessee shall, upon Lessee’s request, execute any documents reasonably necessary to confirm such title in Lessor, it being understood that any such newly purchased Furniture and Equipment and/or Fixtures
will automatically become subject to the security interest discussed in Section 34.1 above. 
  
 40.2 Capital Expenditures. Subject to Section 9.1, Lessor shall be obligated to pay the actual costs of any items that are classified as
capital items under generally accepted accounting principles which are necessary in the reasonable judgment of Lessor for the continued operation

 40.3 Subordination of Management Fee. Lessee agrees that following
receipt of written notice that an Event of Default hereunder has occurred, and prior to any cure thereof, Lessee shall not pay Manager any fees or reimburse Manager for any expenses pursuant to the Management Agreement, regardless of whether accrued
or not. Any payments made by Lessee under the Management Agreement in violation of this Section 40.4 shall be returned by the Manager to the Lessee upon written notice by the Lessor to the Manager. 
  
 ARTICLE 41 
 CHANGE IN REIT STATUS OR REIT REGULATIONS 
  
 In the event that Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc. terminates its status as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for tax purposes, or in
the event that the Internal Revenue Code provisions are amended so that REITs are permitted to operate hotels, Lessor may elect to terminate this Lease. In the event that this Lease is so terminated, Lessor shall be obligated to pay to Lessee a
termination payment equal to the Net Present Value (as hereinafter defined), as of the termination date of this Lease, of the cash flow to Lessee from the operations of the Leased Property (after payment of all Rent hereunder). The “Net
Present Value” of the cash flow to Lessee from the operations of the Leased Property shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the average annual EBITDA (as hereinafter defined) to Lessee net of all Rent for the three (3) Fiscal Years ended
immediately prior to the termination date, times (b) the number of Fiscal Years (or portions thereof) remaining in the Lease Term, times (c) one hundred percent (100%) plus the average annual percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index during
the three (3) Fiscal Years ended immediately prior to the date of sale, and (d) discounting the product of (a) times (b) times (c) above by the Base Rate plus one percent. “EBITDA” means net earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization.
