approved title to the Property. If Seller elects to cure said defects, Seller shall have until Closing to cure any defects, causing title to be not less than marketable and, if not cured in such time, Buyer shall have the right to rescind this
Agreement or waive such defects, which defects may only be waived in writing, given no later than expiration of the Due Diligence Period. In the event Buyer elects to thus rescind this Agreement, the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Buyer
and the parties shall be discharged from all further obligation or liability under this Agreement. At the Closing, Buyer shall cause the title insurance company to issue the title insurance policy for the Property in favor of Buyer which policy
shall include extended coverage over the standard exceptions and contain endorsements for zoning and access coverage. Notwithstanding the above, Seller, at its expense, shall cause the discharge and removal from title and cure (by payment, bonding
or escrow deposit in a manner reasonably acceptable to the title insurance company) at or before the Closing any mortgage, financing statements, deed of trust lien, or similar lien placed on the Property, mechanic’s or materialman’s lien
arising from work performed on the Property, or money judgment or other monetary lien against Seller which can be discharged or removed by the payment of a liquidated sum and Buyer shall have no obligation to object to the same and Seller may not
refuse to cure the same. 
 10. Loss or Damage Prior to Closing. Risk of loss arising from fire, windstorm, explosion,
condemnation, or other casualty (“Loss”) to the Property shall be borne by Seller until the Closing Date. In the event any material Property in excess of $100,000.00 is subject to a Loss prior to the Closing Date, Buyer may elect either to
accept the proceeds of any insurance or any condemnation award as full settlement for the Loss or, alternatively, may elect to terminate this Agreement, in which case the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Buyer and the parties shall be
discharged from all further obligation or liability under this Agreement. In the event any such Loss occurs prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer within 5 business days after it receives notice of such Loss, and Buyer shall then have
10 days after receipt of such notice to review the Property as to which the Loss occurred and advise Seller of Buyer’s election under this Section 10. Seller agrees to maintain until the Closing Date and delivery of the deeds, assignments,
and other documents of title, fire and extended insurance coverage, together with such other insurance in such amounts as is customarily maintained by prudent businessmen conducting comparable business operations and insuring against such other
insurable hazards which are customarily insured against in the case of property similarly situated with respect to the Property. 
 11. Pro Rata Adjustments. The following adjustments shall be computed as of the Closing Date and prorated at the Closing: 
 (a) Real Estate Taxes and Assessments. Consolidated real estate taxes and any personal property taxes assessed for the calendar year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Closing
based on the latest tax bills available which adjustment shall be final and binding upon the parties after the date of Closing; all prior taxes shall be paid by Seller and all subsequent taxes shall be paid by Buyer. Seller shall pay all special
assessments for public improvements constructed or under construction prior to the Closing. 
 (b) Utility Charges.
Proration of sewer and water rents and other utility charges shall be made as of Closing. To the extent such charges are based upon meter readings, the meter readings shall be made as close as reasonably possible to the Closing Date. 

(c) Revenues. Revenues and expenses attributable to room and service operation of the Hotel from and after 12:00 noon on the
Closing Date shall be allocated to Buyer and such revenues and expenses prior to 12:00 noon on the Closing Date shall be allocated to Seller. 
 (d) Petty Cash. Buyer shall retain $1,000.00 of Seller’s petty cash on hand at each Hotel, and Seller shall be reimbursed for the same on the closing statement. 

  
 10 









 (e) Rents, Charges and Fees. Rents, fees or other payments on the leases or other
contracts assigned to Buyer and described in Section 1(d) above shall be prorated as of Closing. Buyer shall assume responsibility for purchase orders made by Seller in the ordinary course of business for expendables or consumables not
delivered to the Hotel as of Closing. All prepaid expenses shall be credited to Seller. 
 (f) Bookings. Buyer shall
receive a credit for 100% of the value of all gift certificates and prepaid deposits for Bookings scheduled to occur on or after the Closing Date, except to the extent such deposits are transferred to Buyer. 

12. Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the parties shall be liable for expenses as follows:

 (a) Document or Transfer Taxes. Seller shall pay the cost of any required documentary or transfer taxes due in
connection with the transfer, conveyance, assignment or delivery of the Real Property or any instruments in connection therewith pursuant to this Agreement. Seller shall pay the sales taxes, if any, imposed in connection with the transfer of any
items of Personal Property. 
 (b) Recording Fees. Buyer shall pay any recording fees required for recording the special
warranty deeds described in Section 5(c)(ii) above. 
 (c) Title Insurance. Buyer shall pay the cost of providing
the title insurance as required in Section 9, above. 
 (d) Survey. Buyer shall pay the cost of providing the survey
as required in Section 8. 
 (e) Escrow Fees. Buyer and Seller each shall pay one-half of the cost of all escrow
fees necessary for the closing of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (f) Miscellaneous Fees. Any other
closing costs not specifically allocated by this Agreement shall be allocated in accordance with closing customs for similar properties in the area of the particular hotel. 
 13. Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Buyer and their respective successors and assigns. 

14. Notices. All notices which are required or may be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and either
be sent by facsimile transmission or be in writing and shall be delivered personally or mailed by registered, certified or express mail, postage prepaid, or by overnight delivery service, as follows:

 15. Waivers. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any portion of this Agreement shall not
operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. 
 16. Default; Specific Performance. If Seller shall
default under any of its obligations hereunder, Buyer may terminate this Agreement, in which case the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer. Either party may seek specific performance and enforcement of this Agreement by a court of law having
jurisdiction hereof in the event of default by the other party in the performance of its obligation under the terms of this Agreement. 
 17. Broker’s Fees. Both parties hereto represent and warrant to the other party that no real estate broker or agent has been involved in this transaction. Each party shall indemnify and hold
harmless the other from any brokerage or real estate commissions or fees due in conjunction with this transaction and claimed on behalf of representation of one of the parties. 

18. Franchise. It shall be the Buyer’s sole responsibility to deal with the franchisor of the Property for the assumption of
the existing franchise agreement or the negotiation for a new franchise agreement for the Property. The Buyer must pay for (i) all application fees and costs for such assumption of or negotiation for the franchise, and shall be solely
responsible for any costs or fees for the Product Improvement Plan (“PIP”) required by the franchisor for said assumption or new franchise. The Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Seller for any costs, loss, damage, fees or
expense the Seller incurs by reason of the transfer of the existing franchise or the issuance of a new franchise to Buyer or Buyer’s agents or assigns, including but not limited to application fees, PIP fees and costs associated thereby,
assumption fees, and termination fees claimed by the Seller’s franchisor against the Seller. This indemnity shall survive closing. 

  
 12 









 19. Equity Financing. This Agreement shall be subject to Buyer
securing an equity financing satisfactory to Buyer by August 15, 2013. In the event Buyer is unsuccessful, the
1st Deposit will be fully refunded to Buyer. 

20. Noncompetition. In order to further induce Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated
hereunder, Seller and Principals (“Principals’) agree that from and after Closing and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, they shall not, within the Trade Area (as defined below) associate in any capacity as an owner, officer,
director, partner, shareholder, member, lessee, lessor, agent, consultant or otherwise, or have any interest in any corporation, partnership, joint venture or limited liability company, which engages in the new construction of an upscale or
upper-mid scale Hilton or Marriott hotel, as designated by the Smith Travel Research, following the Closing. If Seller or Principals fail to keep and perform every covenant of this Section 20, Buyer shall be entitled to specifically enforce the
same by injunction in equity in addition to any other remedies which Buyer may have. If any portion of this Section 20 shall be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall in no way be deemed or construed to affect in
any way the enforceability of any other portion of this Section 20. If any court in which Buyer seeks to have the provisions of this Section 20 specifically enforced determines that the activities, time or geographic area hereinabove
specified are too broad, such court may determine a reasonable activity, time or geographic area and shall specifically enforce this Section for such activity, time and geographic area. The covenants on the part of Seller and Principals under this
Section 20 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Seller or Principals against Buyer or any corporation affiliated with Buyer, whether
predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Buyer of said covenants. For purposes of this Section 20, “Trade Area” shall mean an area located within a 3-mile radius of the Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an opportunity for new development exists which Seller would like to pursue, which would be in violation of this Section 20, Seller must seek consent from Buyer in writing, and Buyer will not unreasonably
withhold consent. 
 The parties hereto acknowledge that the restrictions in this noncompetition agreement are essential to the
Buyer’s successful operation of the Hotel and Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement except for the inducement of the restrictions contained herein. The parties hereto further acknowledge that these restrictions are reasonable and
necessary means of protecting Buyer’s legitimate business interests in the Property and the Hotel. 
 21.
Indemnification. Seller shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold Buyer harmless against and in respect of: 
 (a)
All debts, liabilities and obligations of Seller of any nature, whether accrued, absolute, contingent, or known or unknown on the Closing Date, existing or arising on or resulting from events which occurred or failed to occur on or before the
Closing Date, to the extent not specifically assumed by Buyer hereunder. 
 (b) Any claim, action, loss, damage or cost relating
to or arising by reason of (i) the presence, or any governmental or third party requirements relating to the disposal or arranging for disposal (on-site or off-site), or the release or threatened release prior to the Closing Date, of any
Hazardous Material in, on, to, under, upon or from any of the Property, or in, on, to, under, upon or from the Real Property or any portion thereof upon which the Property are, or have been, located or (ii) any violation or operation of any
applicable Environmental Law which occurs prior to the date hereof in, on, under, upon or from any of the Property, or in, on, to, under, upon or from the Real Property or any part thereof upon which the Property are or have been located or which
otherwise apply to the activities at the Property. 
 (c) Any liability, loss, claim, damage or deficiency resulting directly or
indirectly from any material misrepresentation, breach of warranty or non-fulfillment of any agreement on the part of Seller under this Agreement, or from Seller’s misrepresentation in or omission from any certificate or other instrument
furnished or to be furnished to Buyer hereunder. 

  
 13 









 (d) Any actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, adjustments, costs and expenses
incident to the foregoing, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other out-of-pocket expenses. 
 From and
after the Closing Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from against and in respect of any liability, loss, claim, damage or deficiency resulting directly or indirectly from Buyer’s breach of any provision of any Contracts
assumed by Buyer and any claims, liabilities, or obligations of any nature which arise by reason of the ownership and operation of the Property after Closing. 
 22. Effective Date. As used herein the term “Effective Date” shall mean the date of the last signature on this Agreement. 

23. Acceptance of Agreement. Buyer’s signature hereon constitutes an offer to purchase the Property upon the terms and
conditions hereof. Unless acceptance hereof is executed by Seller and the duly executed counterpart delivered to Buyer either in person, by facsimile transmission, or by depositing in U. S. Mail, or delivery by overnight delivery service, as
provided in Section 14, above, on or before April 30, 2013 at 5:00 p.m., this offer shall be deemed revoked. 
 24.
Time is of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence with respect to the performance of all obligations of the parties under this Agreement. 
 25. Attorneys’ Fees. If any litigation between Seller and Buyer shall arise in connection with this Agreement, then the prevailing party shall be entitled to the payment by the other party of
the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs related to such litigation. 
 26. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the state where the Property is located. 
 27.
Counterparts; Execution by Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Executed counterparts of this
Agreement exchanged by electronic or facsimile transmission shall be fully enforceable. 
 28. 1031 Exchange. 

(a) Seller may desire to exchange, for other property of like kind and qualifying use within the meaning of § 1031 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as Amended, and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, fee title in the Property. Seller expressly reserves the right to assign its rights (and convey title to the Property, if necessary), but not obligations, hereunder to a
Qualified Intermediary as provided in IRC Reg. 1. 103 1(k)- 1 (g)(4) on or before the date of Closing. In the event Seller wishes to conduct a § 1031 IRS Like Kind Exchange for tax purposes, Buyer agrees to participate and cooperate in this
process, including, but not limited to, executing all necessary documentation at or prior to Closing, as long as there is no additional cost to Buyer, and Buyer does not have to take title to any exchange property. 

(b) Buyer may desire to exchange, for other property of like kind and qualifying use within the meaning of § 1031 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as Amended, and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, fee title in the Property. Buyer expressly reserves the right to assign its rights (and accept title to the Property, if necessary,) but not obligations, hereunder to a
Qualified Intermediary as provided in IRC Reg. 1.1031(k)- 1 (g)(4) on or before the date of Closing. In the event Buyer wishes to conduct a §1031 IRS Like Kind Exchange for tax purposes, Seller agrees to participate and cooperate in this
process, including, but not limited to, executing all necessary documentation at or prior to Closing, as long as there is no additional cost to Seller, and Seller does not have to take title to any exchange property.
