Preservation Capital) made by the Members, neither Member shall be obligated or
have the right to make a Contribution to fund such Preservation Capital.

         Section 3.3 FORM OF CONTRIBUTIONS. Unless otherwise Approved, all
Contributions shall be paid in cash.

         Section 3.4 NO RIGHT TO INTEREST OR RETURN OF CAPITAL. Except as
specifically provided for herein, no Member shall be entitled to any return of
or interest on Contributions to the Company.

         Section 3.5 NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. Any obligations or rights of the
Company or the Members to make or require any Contribution under this Article
III shall not result in the grant of any rights to or confer any benefits upon
any Person who is not a Member.

         Section 3.6 LIMITATIONS. Except as set forth in this Article III, no
Member shall be entitled or required to make any Contribution to the Company. No
Member shall have any liability for the repayment of the Contribution of any
other Member (other than as set forth in Section 3.8), and each Member shall
look only to the assets of the Company for return of its Contributions.

         Section 3.7 EXPANSION CAPITAL. (a) If (i) at any time prior to the
first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, the sum of all Contributions
made by the Members and all Committed Contributions equal $64,666,666.67 or more
or (ii) on the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement, the sum of all
Contributions made by the Members and all Committed Contributions equal
$26,666,666.67 or more, the Operating Member shall promptly send a written
notification of such fact to the Class A Member, which notice shall contain a
specific reference to this Section 3.7. Within 60 days after the receipt of such
written notice from the Operating Member with respect to the satisfaction of
either of the conditions set forth in (i) or (ii) above or upon the
determination by the Class A Member that either of the conditions set forth in
(i) or (ii) above has been satisfied, the Class A Member shall have the right,
at its option, to notify the Operating Member in writing (such notice, the "Cap
Increase Notice") that the Class A Member is prepared to increase its Capital
Contribution Cap. The Cap Increase Notice shall set forth the amount by which
the Class A Member proposes the aggregate Capital Contribution Caps of the
Members shall be increased, which amount shall not be less than $33,333,333.33
nor more than $66,666,666.67. The Operating Member shall, within thirty (30)
days following the giving of any such Cap Increase Notice, give written notice
to the Class A Member of the Operating Member's election either (i) approving
the increase in the aggregate Capital Contribution Cap proposed by the Class A
Member, in which event the Capital Contribution Cap for each Member shall be
increased by its Proportionate Share of such aggregate increase, or (ii)


                                       14
<PAGE>

disapproving such increase, in which event the Capital Contribution Caps of the
Members shall not be increased. The Operating Member's failure to give notice
within the aforesaid thirty (30) day period shall be deemed to be the Operating
Member's election not to approve the increase in the Capital Contribution Caps
as set forth in the Cap Increase Notice.

                  (b) If at any time during the Investment Period, the Operating
Member offers a Lodging Facility to the Company as a proposed acquisition under
Article X and such proposed acquisition is approved by the Class A Member or the
AEW Board Members, then notwithstanding the fact that Approval of the proposed
acquisition, taking into account all Contributions of Initial Capital made by
the Members and all Committed Contributions then in effect, would result in the
Capital Contribution Cap of each Member being exceeded, the Operating Member
shall be deemed to have approved such acquisition and an increase in its Capital
Contribution Cap in an amount necessary to fund its Proportionate Share of all
Pursuit Costs and Acquisition/Redevelopment Costs in connection with such
proposed acquisition, in any event, all subject to the rights of the Class A
Member pursuant to Article X. In no event shall the aggregate increases in the
Capital Contribution Caps pursuant to this Section 3.7(b) exceed $33,333,333.33.
Any Capital advanced or required to be advanced under this Article III as a
result of the increase in the Capital Contribution Cap under Section 3.7 (a) or
(b) shall be referred to as "Expansion Capital".

         Section 3.8 FAILURE TO CONTRIBUTE CAPITAL. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3.10, if any Member fails to make a Contribution required under this
Article III by the date such Contribution is due and such failure continues for
ten (10) days after written notice from any Member who has not failed to make
its Contribution (any such failing Member shall be a "Defaulting Member" and the
amount of the failed contribution shall be the "Default Amount"), then, in
addition to its other rights and remedies set forth herein, or otherwise
provided by law, the nondefaulting Member shall have one or more of the
following remedies:

                           (a) to advance to the Company on behalf of, and as a
         loan to the Defaulting Member, an amount equal to the Default Amount to
         be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form attached
         hereto as EXHIBIT D (each such loan, a "Default Loan"). The Capital
         Account of the Defaulting Member shall be credited with the amount of
         such Contribution and such amount shall constitute a debt owed by the
         Defaulting Member to the nondefaulting Member. Any Default Loan shall
         bear interest at the Default Rate (but in no event in excess of the
         highest rate permitted by applicable law) and shall be payable from any
         distributions due the Defaulting Member hereunder, but shall in all
         events be payable in full by the Defaulting Member on or before the
         earlier of (i) December 31, 2010 and (ii) the transfer of the entire
         interest of a Member in the Company to the other Member. Interest on a
         Default Loan to the extent unpaid shall accrue and compound monthly. A
         Default Loan shall be prepayable, in whole or in part, at any time or
         from time to time without penalty. Any such Default Loans shall be
         secured solely by the Defaulting Member's interest in the Company,
         including, without limitation, such Defaulting Member's rights to
         distributions under Article V. Except as expressly provided herein,
         Default Loans, with interest as aforesaid, shall otherwise be 



                                       15
<PAGE>

         without recourse to any other assets of the Defaulting Member. The
         Defaulting Member hereby grants a security interest in its interest in
         the Company to the nondefaulting Member and the Defaulting Member
         hereby irrevocably appoints the nondefaulting Member, and any of its
         respective officers, as its attorney-in-fact coupled with an interest
         with full power to prepare and execute any documents, instruments and
         agreements, including, but not limited to, any note evidencing the
         Default Loan and such Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statements,
         continuation statements, and other security instruments as may be
         appropriate to perfect and continue its security interest in favor of
         the nondefaulting Member. Any Contributions contributed by the
         nondefaulting Member on behalf of a Defaulting Member shall be deemed
         to be made by the Defaulting Member except as otherwise expressly
         provided herein. All distributions to the Defaulting Member hereunder
         shall be applied first to payment of any interest due under any Default
         Loan and then to principal until all amounts due thereunder are paid in
         full. While any Default Loan is outstanding, the Company shall be
         obligated to pay directly to the nondefaulting Member, until all
         Default Loans have been paid in full, the amount of (x) any
         distributions payable to the Defaulting Member, and (y) any proceeds of
         a sale that would otherwise be payable to the Defaulting Member
         resulting from the sale of a Target Asset as contemplated by Section
         8.2 or from the sale of the Defaulting Member's interest in the Company
         as contemplated by Section 8.4; or

                           (b) to advance to the Company as an additional
         Contribution the Default Amount whereupon the Proportionate Shares of
         the Members shall be recalculated as provided in this subparagraph (b).
         After the exercise of a Member's rights under this subparagraph (b),
         each Member's Proportionate Share shall equal a fraction (expressed as
         a percentage), the numerator of which shall equal the aggregate sum of
         all Contributions made by the Member under this Agreement and the
         denominator of which shall equal the aggregate sum of all Contributions
         made by all Members under this Agreement; or

                           (c) in lieu of the remedies set forth in
         subparagraphs (a) or (b) above, to revoke the Funding Notice for both
         Members, whereupon any unmatched Contributions paid by the
         nondefaulting Member pursuant to such Funding Notice shall be returned,
         with interest computed at the Interest Rate, in which event the
         nondefaulting Member shall reconsider the needs of the Company for
         additional capital and may issue any Funding Notice following such
         reconsideration.

         Section 3.9 CREDIT ENHANCEMENT. Either Member may, on a case by case
basis, but subject to obtaining Approval, elect to provide credit enhancement
for Authorized Financing for one or more Properties in the form of guaranties,
indemnifications, pledges of collateral or letters of credit to the provider of
the Authorized Financing (a "Lender"), in each case to secure certain
obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Company (any such credit
enhancement shall be collectively, "Credit Enhancement"). Any request for
Approval made by a Member may include proposed fees to be charged to the Company
by such Member in connection with providing such Credit Enhancement. The
provision of any such Credit Enhancement shall not be deemed a



                                       16
<PAGE>

Contribution unless and until any funds payable under any guaranty are paid, or
with respect to collateral, such collateral is applied or with respect to a
letter of credit, such letter of credit is drawn upon, but shall be deemed a
Contribution upon and after such payment, application or draw (but only to the
extent funds are paid, collateral applied or a letter of credit is drawn upon).
If any Member is required to make payments under any Credit Enhancement or any
Credit Enhancement supplied by a Member is drawn or applied by any Lender
against the obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary Company other than in
proportion to the Proportionate Shares of all of the Members, or if the Members
shall incur reasonable costs in providing such Credit Enhancement that are
disproportionate to the Members' Proportionate Shares, then the Member who has
proportionally paid or funded less Credit Enhancement or has had proportionally
less of its Credit Enhancement so applied (or who has incurred proportionally
fewer costs in providing Credit Enhancement) shall promptly reimburse the other
Member in an amount which shall result in each Member having its Proportionate
Share of the Credit Enhancement applied (or having incurred its Proportionate
Share of Credit Enhancement costs) and the Contributions deemed made by the
Members shall reflect any such payment. If any Member fails to promptly
reimburse the other Member, the non-failing Member shall have the right to cause
the Company to reimburse both Members for all costs and expenses reasonably
incurred by the Members in connection with such Credit Enhancement (and such
non-failing Member shall have the unilateral right to issue a Funding Notice in
such amount) and the Members agree that such reimbursement shall be made prior
to any distributions to the Members under Article V.

         Section 3.10 FAILURE TO CONTRIBUTE EXPANSION CAPITAL. If the Operating
Member fails to contribute its Requested Amount of Expansion Capital after the
issuance of a Cap Increase Notice (the portion of its Requested Amount which the
Operating Member fails to contribute shall be the "Uncontributed Expansion
Amount"), then, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.8, if the Operating
Member notifies the Class A Member within ten (10) days after a receipt of a
Funding Notice for such Expansion Capital that it does not intend to fund its
Requested Amount and such notice sets forth the Uncontributed Expansion Amount,
then such failure shall not be deemed a default of the Operating Member under
this Agreement or an Event of Default hereunder, but the Class A Member shall
have the specific right to the remedies set forth in Section 3.8(a) or 3.8(c).
Any loan made by the Class A Member pursuant its rights under Section 3.8(a) as
a result of the application of this Section shall be deemed a "Default Loan" for
all purposes of this Agreement.


          ARTICLE IV-- CAPITAL ACCOUNTS, ALLOCATIONS OF INCOME AND LOSS

         Section 4.1 CAPITAL ACCOUNTS. A separate capital account (each a
"Capital Account") shall be maintained for each Member in accordance with the
rules of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), and this Section 4.1
shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. Whenever the
Company would be permitted to adjust the Capital Accounts of the Members
pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(F) to reflect
revaluations of Company property, the Company may so adjust the Capital Accounts
of the Members. In the event that the Capital Accounts of the Members are
adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(F) to
reflect revaluations of Company property, 



                                       17
<PAGE>

(i) the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted in accordance with
Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(G) for allocations of
depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for book
purposes, with respect to such property, (ii) the Members' distributive shares
of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for tax
purposes, with respect to such property shall be determined so as to take
account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and book value of such
property in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c), and (iii) the amount
of upward and/or downward adjustments to the book value of the Company property
shall be treated as income, gain, deduction and/or loss for purposes of applying
the allocation provisions of this Article IV. In the event that Code Section
704(c) applies to Company property, the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be
adjusted in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(G)
for allocations of depreciation, depletion, amortization and gain and loss, as
computed for book purposes, with respect to such property.

         Section 4.2 ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME. Subject to Sections 4.5 through
4.9, net income for any fiscal year or portion thereof shall be allocated among
the Members in the following order and priority:

                  (a) First, to the Members until the aggregate allocations of
         net income to each Member pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) for all
         fiscal years or portions thereof are equal to the aggregate allocations
         of net loss to each Member pursuant to Section 4.4 for all fiscal years
         or portions thereof, in the reverse order of, and in proportion to, the
         prior allocations of net loss to the Members pursuant to Section 4.4;
         and

                  (b) Thereafter, to the Members, pro rata in accordance with
their Proportionate Shares.

         Section 4.3 ALLOCATION OF NET LOSS. Subject to Sections 4.4 through
4.9, net loss for any fiscal year or portion thereof shall be allocated among
the Members in accordance with their Proportionate Shares.

         Section 4.4 LOSS LIMITATION. Net loss allocated pursuant to Section 4.3
shall not exceed the maximum amount of net loss that can be allocated without
causing or increasing a deficit balance in a Member's Adjusted Capital Account.
A Member's "Adjusted Capital Account" balance shall mean such Member's Capital
Account balance increased by such Member's obligation to restore a deficit
balance in its Capital Account, including any deemed obligation pursuant to the
penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1) and
1.704-2(i)(5), and decreased by the amounts described in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(D)(4), (5), or (6). In the event that one but not both
of the Members would have a deficit balance in its Adjusted Capital Account as a
consequence of an allocation of net loss pursuant to Section 4.3 in excess of
the amount, if any, permitted under the first sentence of this Section 4.4, the
limitation set forth in this Section 4.4 shall be applied by allocating 100%of
the remaining net loss to the other Member until the Adjusted Capital Account of
such other Member is zero.

                                       18
<PAGE>

         Section 4.5 ALLOCATIONS TO MATCH CARRY DISTRIBUTIONS. After giving
effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.6 through 4.8, the
Operating Member shall be specially allocated 100% of the net income of the
Company until the aggregate amount of net income (including any gross items of
income or gain allocated under this Section 4.5) allocated to the Operating
Member pursuant to this Section 4.5 in all fiscal years of the Company is equal
to the aggregate amount of the Carry Distributions which the Operating Member
has received. If the Company has insufficient net income to make the allocation
required by the preceding sentence, the Company shall specially allocate gross
items of income and gain to the Operating Member to the extent of any such
shortfall.

         "Carry Distributions" means the portion of the distributions made (or
deemed made pursuant to the following provisions of this Section 4.5) to the
Operating Member pursuant to Sections 5.2(b), 5.2(c), 5.3(b) and 5.3(c) in
amounts not in accordance with the Operating Member's Proportionate Share (e.g.
16 2/3% of all distributions under Sections 5.2(b) and 5.3(b)). For purposes of
determining the amount of Carry Distributions, all distributions made, or which
will be made, pursuant to Section 5.4 shall be treated as if made pursuant to
each applicable paragraph of Section 5.3 to the extent of the amount that would
have been made pursuant to each such paragraph if the aggregate amount
distributed, or to be distributed, pursuant to Section 5.4 had been distributed
pursuant to Section 5.3. In addition, for purposes of determining the amount of
Carry Distributions, distributions shall only be taken into account if they are
made prior to the date which is the earlier of (i) the date on which the Company
files its federal income tax return with respect to the fiscal year for which
the allocation pursuant to this Section 4.5 is being made, or (ii) the date
prescribed by law for the filing of such return (not including extensions).
Finally, the parties acknowledge that it is the intention of this Section 4.5
and Section 4.9 that, to the extent possible and subject to the other provisions
of this Agreement, each Member will receive the same aggregate amount of net
distributions under this Agreement that each Member would have received if this
Agreement did not contain Section 5.4.

         Section 4.6 MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACKS AND NON-RECOURSE DEDUCTIONS.

                  Section 4.6.1 COMPANY MINIMUM GAIN. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement, in the event there is a net decrease in Company
Minimum Gain during a fiscal year, the Members shall be allocated items of
income and gain in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f). For
purposes of this Agreement, the term "Company Minimum Gain" shall mean
"Partnership Minimum Gain" as set forth in Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-2(b)(2), and any Member's share of Company Minimum Gain shall be
determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1). This
Section 4.6.1 is intended to comply with the minimum gain charge-back
requirement of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted
and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

                  Section 4.6.2 NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, non-recourse deductions shall be allocated to
the Members, pari passu, in 



                                       19
<PAGE>

proportion to their Proportionate Shares. "Non-recourse deductions" shall have
the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(b)(1).

                  Section 4.6.3 PARTNER NONRECOURSE DEBT. Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Agreement, to the extent required by Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i), any items of income, gain, loss or deduction of
the Company that are attributable to a nonrecourse debt of the Company that
constitutes "partner nonrecourse debt" as defined in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-2(b)(4) (including chargebacks of partner nonrecourse debt minimum
gain) shall be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). This Section 4.6.3 is intended to satisfy the
requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i) (including the partner
nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirements) and shall be interpreted
and applied in a manner consistent therewith.

         Section 4.7 QUALIFIED INCOME OFFSET. Any Member who unexpectedly
receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(D)(4), (5) or (6) that causes a deficit
balance in its Capital Account (in excess of any deemed deficit restoration
obligation pursuant to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5),
and adjusted as provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(D))
shall be allocated items of income and gain in an amount and a manner sufficient
to eliminate, to the extent required by the Treasury Regulations, such deficit
balance as quickly as possible. This Section 4.7 is intended to comply with the
alternate test for economic effect set forth in Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(D) and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent
therewith.

         Section 4.8 CURATIVE ALLOCATIONS. The allocations set forth in Sections
4.6 and 4.7 (the "Regulatory Allocations") are intended to comply with the
requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IV (other than the
Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account
as provided for in the following two sentences. Income, gain, loss and deduction
shall be reallocated to the extent that such reallocation causes the net
aggregate amount of allocations of income, gain, deduction and loss to each
Member to be equal to or more closely approximate the net aggregate amount of
such items that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory
Allocations had not occurred; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such reallocations shall
be made only if and to the extent they are consistent with the requirements of
Code Section 514(c)(9)(E) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.514(c)-2. This
Section 4.8 shall be interpreted and applied in such a manner and to such extent
as is reasonably necessary to eliminate, as quickly as possible but consistent
with the requirements of Code Section 514(c)(9)(E), permanent economic
distortions that would otherwise occur as a consequence of the Regulatory
Allocations in the absence of this Section 4.8.

         Section 4.9 SPECIAL INCOME ALLOCATION. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Article IV (except Sections 4.6 through 4.8), in the year in
which the Company liquidates (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g)), items of gross income and gain shall be allocated to the
Operating Member and items of gross loss and deduction shall be 



                                       20
<PAGE>

allocated to the Class A Member to the extent necessary to cause the aggregate
amount of net distributions under Article V with respect to each Member to be
equal to or more closely approximate the aggregate net distributions that each
such Member would have received pursuant to Article V if this Agreement did not
contain Section 5.4; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that gross items of loss and deduction
shall not be allocated to the Class A Member pursuant to this Section 4.9 to the
extent they would cause or increase a deficit balance in the Class A Member's
Adjusted Capital Account; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that gross items of loss and
deduction shall be allocated to the Operating Member pursuant to this Section
4.9 to the extent necessary to reflect the agreement of the parties that the
Operating Member will bear the cost of certain transaction expenses pursuant to
Section 6.4.1(a), the last sentence of Section 10.3.3(b) and certain lease
termination expenses pursuant to Section 6.4.4, but only to the extent permitted
by Treasury Regulations Sections 1.514(c)-2(f) or (g).

         Section 4.10 CODE SECTION 704(B) AND 514(C)(9)(E) ALLOCATIONS. The
allocation provisions contained in this Article IV are intended to comply with
Code Section 704(b) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and
shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent therewith. Further, it
is the intention of the Members that this Agreement provide for allocations to
comply with the requirements of Code Section 514(c)(9)(E) and the Treasury
Regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Members agree that any provision of
this Article IV that is reasonably subject to different interpretations shall be
interpreted in a manner that comports with the foregoing intention.

         Section 4.11 DISTRIBUTIONS OF NONRECOURSE LIABILITY PROCEEDS. If,
during a fiscal year, the Company makes a distribution to any Member that is
allocable to the proceeds of any nonrecourse liability of the Company that is
allocable to an increase in Company Minimum Gain pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.704-2(h), then the Company shall elect, to the extent
permitted by Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(h)(3), to treat such
distribution as a distribution that is not allocable to an increase in Company
Minimum Gain.

         Section 4.12 ALLOCATION OF DEBT. For purposes of allocating excess
nonrecourse liabilities among the Members pursuant to Treasury Regulations
Section 1.752-3(a)(3), the Operating Member's interest in Company profits shall
be 100% and the Class A Member's interest in profits shall be 0%.


         Section 4.13 OTHER ALLOCATION PROVISIONS. Any elections or other
decisions relating to the allocations of Company items of income, gain, loss,
deduction or credit shall be made by the Class A Member in any manner that
reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement.

         Section 4.14 NO DEFICIT RESTORATION BY MEMBERS.

         No Member shall be required to contribute capital to the Company to
restore a deficit balance in its Capital Account upon liquidation or otherwise.

                           ARTICLE V-- DISTRIBUTIONS.

         Section 5.1       MAINTENANCE OF RESERVES.

                  Section 5.1.1 RESERVES -- GENERAL. Subject to the reserve
requirements set forth herein, the Operating Member shall cause all available
cash held by each Subsidiary Company to be distributed to the Company. The
Company shall maintain such Approved reserves at each Subsidiary Company or at
the Company level as the Operating Member deems appropriate in light of
customary industry standards and potential opportunities and obligations of the
Company to meet the anticipated cash needs and obligations of the Properties and
the Company, including, without limitation, any reasonably anticipated
contingent liabilities of the Company. If the Members are unable to agree on
required reserves for a particular Property, the Company (or Subsidiary Company)
shall maintain reserves equal to four percent (4%) of the annual gross revenue
generated by the particular Property. There shall be no distributions to the
Members (other than in the event of dissolution and liquidation of the Company)
during any period that the Company does not have reserves meeting Approved (or
minimum) levels, until such reserves have been funded or replenished to those
levels, as the case may be.

                  Section 5.1.2 PROHIBITED DISTRIBUTIONS. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not make any
distributions prohibited by the terms of the Act.

         Section 5.2 DISTRIBUTIONS OF CASH FLOW. Subject to the provisions of
Sections 3.8, 3.10, 5.1 and 5.4, within thirty (30) days after the end of each

                         ARTICLE VI-- POWERS AND DUTIES

         Section 6.1 BOARD OF MEMBERS.

                  Section 6.1.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF BOARD OF MEMBERS. Subject to
the rights of the Class A Member as set forth in this Agreement (including,
without limitation, Section 6.1.3, Section 6.2, Section 6.4.5 and Section 6.6),
the decision-making power of the Company shall be vested in a Board of Members,
which shall consist of four (4) individuals (each a "Board Member") comprised as
follows: (a) two (2) Board Members chosen by the Operating Member, initially
consisting of Robert W. Boykin and Richard C. Conti (together with their
permitted successors, the "Operating Member's Board Members"), and (b) two (2)
Board Members chosen by the Class A Member (the "AEW Board Members"). Either
Member may change the designation of the individual or individuals appointed by
it to the Board of Members at any time by written notice to the Operating
Member, except that the Operating Member shall not change the designation of Mr.
Boykin as a Board Member without the prior consent of the Class A Member and
such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The names and addresses of the


                                       23
<PAGE>

initial Board Members of the Company are set forth on EXHIBIT A attached hereto,
and EXHIBIT A shall be amended from time to time by the Operating Member to
reflect the resignation or removal of any Board Member or the appointment of new
or additional Board Members pursuant to this Agreement.

                  Section 6.1.2 MEETINGS AND ACTION OF THE BOARD OF MEMBERS.
Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all action to be taken by the
Board of Members shall be taken at a meeting of the Board of Members by the
affirmative vote (a "Majority Vote") of a majority in number of the Board
Members, PROVIDED, however, that no combination of affirmative votes shall be
deemed to qualify as a Majority Vote unless such combination of affirmative
votes includes at least one (1) Operating Member Board Member and one (1) AEW
Board Member. If action is to be taken at a duly called meeting of the Board of
Members, notice of the time, date and place of meeting shall be given to each
Board Member by the Operating Member or the Board Member(s) calling the meeting
by personal delivery, telephone or fax sent to the address of each Board Member
set forth on EXHIBIT A at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the
meeting; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, no notice need be given to a Board Member who waives
notice before or after the meeting or who attends the meeting without protesting
at or before its commencement the inadequacy of notice to him or her. The Board
Members may attend a meeting in person or by proxy, and they may also
participate in the meeting by means of conference call or similar communications
equipment that permits all Board Members to hear each other. A chairman selected
by the Class A Member shall preside over all meetings of the Board of Members.
Either Member may introduce meeting agenda items, all of which the Board of
Members shall consider. The chairman shall determine the order of business and
the procedures to be followed at each meeting of the Board of Members. Any
action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Members
may be taken without a meeting if one or more written consents to such action
shall be signed by the requisite number of Board Members required for a Majority
Vote. Such written consents shall be delivered to the Operating Member at the
principal office of the Company and, unless otherwise specified, shall be
effective on the date when the first consent is delivered. To the extent that
this Agreement permits the Board to request materials, reports, information or
clarifications, such request may be made by any individual Member of the Board
without further action by the Board.

                  Section 6.1.3 SPECIFIC APPROVAL RIGHTS OF BOARD OF MEMBERS.

Member shall not, in the exercise of its general control and decision-making

Approval. In addition, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Class A Member shall not unilaterally cause a Major Decision to

         Section 6.4 OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF THE MEMBERS.

                  Section 6.4.1 OPERATING MEMBER; FIRST OPPORTUNITY.

                           (a) During the Investment Period, the Operating
         Member shall not directly or indirectly through an Operating Member
         Related Party acquire, develop, rehabilitate or redevelop any Lodging
         Facility (other than the Lodging Facilities listed on EXHIBIT I which
         are owned by the Operating Member or an Operating Member Related Party
         as of the date hereof and which the Members acknowledge are exempt from
         the restriction set forth in this Section 6.4.1) without in good faith
         first offering such Lodging Facility to the Company pursuant to Article
         X. The Operating Member shall offer such Lodging Facility by delivering
         a complete set of Preliminary Information as described in Section
         10.3.1. If the Class A Member or the Class A Member Board Members
         disapprove such acquisition, then the Operating Member or any Operating
         Member Related Party may, during the twelve (12) month period
         commencing upon the disapproval of such Lodging Facility by the Class A
         Member, but subject to the restrictions in Section 6.4.4, proceed to
         acquire a direct or indirect interest in such Lodging Facility,
         provided that the terms and conditions of acquiring such Lodging
         Facility are not more favorable to the Operating Member or such
         Operating Member Related Party in any material respect than the
         proposed terms and conditions presented to the Class A Member for
         approval. In addition, the Operating Member or such Operating Member
         Related Party shall reimburse the Company for all Pursuit Costs
         incurred by the Company with respect to such Lodging Facility.

                           (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
         6.4.1(a) above, the Class A Member acknowledges that the Operating
         Member during the Investment Period may dispose of its interest in the
         DoubleTree Hotel Yakima, DoubleTree Hotel Eugene/Springfield,
         DoubleTree Hotel Spokane and DoubleTree Hotel Bellevue (each, a
         "Disposition Property") and is obligated to substitute one or more
         Lodging Facilities in connection therewith and in any event within six
         months of the date of such sale (each such substitute Lodging Facility,
         a "Substitute Property") and that the restrictions set forth in Section
         6.4.1(a) shall not apply to any Substitute Property acquired by the
         Operating Member or Operating Member Related Party in connection
         therewith and in any event within six months of the date of disposition
         of any Disposition Properties. In addition, until such time as the
         Class A Member has made Contributions of at least $25,000,000, the
         Operating Member or Operating Member Related Party may acquire from a
         Third Party not more than one (1) Lodging Facility in connection with
         the disposition of a Lodging Facility owned by the Operating Member or
         Operating Member Related Party pursuant to a bona fide tax free
         exchange permitted pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code (a "1031
         Exchange"). After the Class A Member has made Contributions of at least
         $25,000,000, the Operating Member or Operating Member 



                                       33
<PAGE>

         Related Party may engage in up to three additional 1031 Exchanges,
         provided that prior to each subsequent 1031 Exchange after the first
         1031 Exchange permitted after the $25,000,000 threshold has been
         achieved, the Company has acquired an additional Lodging Facility. The
         restrictions set forth in Section 6.4.1(a) shall not apply to a 1031
         Exchange permitted by this Section 6.4.1(b). The Operating Member shall
         notify the Class A Member of the identity of the Lodging Facility and
         the terms of any 1031 Exchange permitted hereunder prior to the date of
         commitment thereof.

                  Section 6.4.2 GENERAL PROVISIONS. The Class A Member and its
Related Parties shall not be obligated to present any investment opportunity to
the Company, even if the opportunity is of a character consistent with the
Company's other activities and interests. The Class A Member and any of its
Related Parties may engage in or possess any interest, directly or indirectly,
in any other business venture of any nature or description independently or with
others, including but not limited to, the ownership, financing, leasing,
operation, management, syndication, brokerage, or development of real property
competitive with the Properties. Membership in the Company and the assumption by
the Class A Member of any duties hereunder shall be without prejudice to such
Class A Member's rights (or the rights of its Related Parties and other
affiliates) to have such other interests and activities and to receive and enjoy
profits or compensation therefrom, and neither the Company nor the other Members
shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement in and to such ventures or the
income or profits derived therefrom. If the Operating Member (i) lists a Lodging
Facility on the "deal sheet" referenced in Section 10.3 which the Class A Member
indicates in writing should not be pursued as a potential acquisition because
the Class A Member does not anticipate Approving the acquisition of such Lodging
Facility pursuant to Section 10.3; (ii) lists a Lodging Facility on the "deal
sheet" referenced in Section 10.3 and submits a Preliminary Approval Package
within thirty (30) days of being listed on a "deal sheet" and the Class A Member
disapproves such acquisition pursuant to Article X or (iii) proposes a Proposed
Investment pursuant to Article X which the Class A Member disapproves, the Class
A Member agrees not to acquire an interest in such Lodging Facility during the
next twelve month period following such disapproval, unless such interest is
acquired directly or indirectly by Dolce/AEW, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership, to be used and operated as a conference center hotel.

                  Section 6.4.3 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS. No Member shall
engage or pay any compensation to any Related Party of a Member for the
provision of services to the Company unless (a) such party is fully qualified
and experienced to provide the required services, (b) both the scope of services
and the compensation payable to such Related Party for the services are
consistent with then current market standards for arms-length transactions, (c)
the Member discloses such engagement to the Board as a transaction with a
Related Party of a Member and (d) such engagement or payment is Approved.

                  Section 6.4.4 COMPETING INVESTMENTS; RESTRICTED AREA. The
Operating Member shall not directly or indirectly through an Operating Member
Related Party acquire, develop, rehabilitate or redevelop any Competing
Investment unless expressly permitted pursuant to this Section 6.4.4. The
"Restricted Area" shall mean the geographical area surrounding the Property

                                       34
<PAGE>

which if a Lodging Facility comparable to the applicable Property were located
therein would be deemed a direct competitor of the Property. The parties
acknowledge that the Restricted Area shall differ with respect to each Property
based on the relevant competitive market, geographic area and type of property
to be acquired by the Company. In connection with the approval of any proposed
acquisition, the Members shall negotiate in good faith to define the Restricted
Area for such acquisition. In the event that the Members are unable to agree on
a Restricted Area for any proposed acquisition, the resolution shall be
submitted to the Market Expert, whose determination of the Restricted Area shall
be conclusive and binding on the Members. During the pendency of any
determination of the definition of the Restricted Area for any proposed
acquisition, the Operating Member shall not directly or indirectly through an
Operating Member Related Party acquire, develop, rehabilitate or redevelop any
Lodging Facility located within the area proposed by the Class A Member to be
the Restricted Area.

         During the Investment Period, the Operating Member shall not, directly
or indirectly through an Operating Member Related Party, acquire a Competing
Investment or develop, rehabilitate or redevelop a Lodging Facility or other
real property in a manner which causes such Lodging Facility or other real
property to be a Competing Investment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a
Competing Investment may be acquired by the Operating Member or Operating Member
Related Party during the Investment Period as part of a transaction involving
the direct or indirect acquisition of three or more Lodging Facilities provided
the Operating Member complies with the provisions of Section 6.4.1 with repect
to offering the Lodging Facilities to the Company and the timing and terms of
the acquisition of such Lodging Facilities by the Operating Member or an
Operating Member Related Party.

         After the expiration of the Investment Period, the Operating Member or
an Operating Member Related Party may acquire a Competing Investment or develop,
rehabilitate or redevelop a Lodging Facility or other real property in a manner
which causes such Lodging Facility or other real property to be a Competing
Investment, provided, however, the Operating Member shall give the Class A
Member prior notice of its intention to so acquire a Competing Investment or
develop, rehabilitate or redevelop a Lodging Facility or other real property in
a manner which would cause such Lodging Facility or real property to be a
Competing Investment, which notice shall set forth all material details
reasonably necessary for the Class A Member to assess the impact of such
Competing Investment on any Property and prompt notice after the acquisition of
the Competing Investment or the development, rehabilitation or redevelopment of
the Lodging Facility or other real property to be a Competing Investment,
whether during or after the Investment Period. The Class A Member shall have the
right, by delivering written notice to the Operating Member within twelve (12)
months after receipt of notice of the occurrence of the closing of the
acquisition of the Competing Investment or the completion of development,
rehabilitation or redevelopment of the Lodging Facility or other real property
into a Competing Investment by the Operating Member or any Operating Member
Related Party, to either (x) cause the Company to terminate the Lease with an
Operating Member Related Party with respect to the Property which competes with
the Competing Investment or (y) cause the Company to convey the Property which
competes with the Competing Investment to the Operating Member or a designated
Operating Member Related Party for a purchase price equal to the aggregate

                                       35
<PAGE>

Contributions made by the Members with respect to such Property without further
adjustment or proration. If any termination fees are due to an Operating Member
Related Party as a result of a termination of a Lease pursuant to this Section
6.4.4, such fees shall be the sole responsibility of the Operating Member. If
the Class A Member elects to cause the Company to convey the Property which
competes with the Competing Investment to the Operating Member or a designated
Operating Member Related Party, the closing of the sale of such Property shall
be on the date which is thirty (30) days after the Class A Member's election
hereunder. Any Property conveyed by the Company pursuant to this Section 6.4.4
shall be conveyed to the Operating Member or the Operating Member Related Party
subject to any and all easements, liens, restrictions, covenants and matters of
record title and the Operating Member or Operating Member Related Party
acquiring such Property shall acquire the Property subject to all liabilities
with respect to such Property. The Operating Member shall use all commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain for the benefit of the Company and the Class A
Member releases from any and all monetary or other guaranties given by them with
respect to such liabilities. If following the exercise of commercially
reasonable efforts, the Operating Member is unable to obtain such releases, the
Operating Member shall provide to the Company and the Class A Member indemnities
reasonably satisfactory to each to address the contingent liability contained in
the unreleased liabilities.


                  Section 6.4.5 LEASES.

                           (a) The Operating Member shall not enter into any
Lease unless the form and substance thereof and the identity of the tenant have
all been Approved.

                           (b) The Operating Member acknowledges and agrees that
the Class A Member shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority on
behalf of the Company to take any action on the part of the Company with respect
to a Lease with an Operating Member Related Party, including, without limitation
(i) the right to modify, amend or terminate such Lease, (ii) the right to
exercise any right or option on the part of the Company or to grant or withhold
any material consent or approval contained therein, and (iii) the right to
enforce any rights or remedies therein. Any Lease for a Property with an
Operating Member Related Party shall contain the right of the Company to
terminate such Lease without cause for an Approved termination fee.

                           (c) In the event an Operating Member Related Party is
in default under a Lease and the Class A Member desires to terminate such Lease
and enter into a new Lease for the applicable Property, the Class A Member shall
notify the Operating Member and the Members shall cooperate to identify an
approved replacement tenant for a new Lease for the Property within thirty (30)
days. If the Members are not able to agree on a replacement tenant, then,
notwithstanding the lack of Approval and notwithstanding any provision or
provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Class A Member shall have the
right to unilaterally propose and approve on behalf of the Company of one of the
entities listed on EXHIBIT O or any Affiliate thereof as a replacement tenant
and to negotiate and cause the Company (or Subsidiary Company) to enter into a
new lease substantially on the terms and conditions contained in the 



                                       36
<PAGE>

form of Lease entered into with the Operating Member Related Party; provided
that the Class A Member, in connection with its right to negotiate a Lease
pursuant to this Section 6.4.5, shall have the right to unilaterally propose,
negotiate and approve base rent, percentage rent and other economic terms in the
Lease.

                           (d) The Operating Member acknowledges and agrees that
the Class A Member shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority on
behalf of the Company to take any action on the part of the Company with respect
to terminating a Lease due to the breach by a tenant (a "Defaulting Tenant") of
a non-compete covenant or clause in such Lease if the breach is the result of
the Defaulting Tenant's involvement with a Competing Investment owned or
operated by the Operating Member or an Operating Member Related Party.

         Section 6.5 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

                  Section 6.5.1 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. None of the Operating
Member, the Class A Member, any Board Member, any Related Party of any Member or
any Member's agents, officers, partners, members, employees, representatives,
directors or shareholders (each such party, an "Indemnified Party") shall be
liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Company or any
Member for (i) any act performed in good faith within the scope of the authority
conferred by this Agreement, (ii) any failure or refusal to perform any acts
except those required by the terms of this Agreement, or (iii) any performance
or omission to perform any acts in reliance on the advice of accountants or
legal counsel for the Company; provided, however, that each Indemnified Party
shall nevertheless be liable in all events for its own fraud, gross negligence
or willful misconduct.

                  Section 6.5.2 INDEMNIFICATION. To the fullest extent permitted
by law, the Company shall indemnify and save harmless each Indemnified Party
from any loss, cost, damage, fee (including without limitations, legal fees and
costs) or expense incurred by reason of (i) such party's status as a Member or
Board Member or the Related Party of a Member or such party's status as agent,
officer, partner, member, employee, representative, director or shareholder of
such Member (ii) any act performed in good faith within the scope of the
authority conferred by this Agreement, (iii) any failure or refusal to perform
any acts except those required by the terms of this Agreement or (iv) any
performance or omission to perform any acts based upon reasonable good faith
reliance on the advice of accountants or legal counsel for the Company, provided
that no indemnification shall be given with respect to acts or omissions which
constitute fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence.

                  Section 6.5.3 MODIFICATION OF LIABILITY. The Operating Member
expressly agrees that with respect to any approval right granted to the Class A
Member or any AEW Board Member or the exercise of the Right of First Offer
pursuant to Section 8.2 or the Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 8.4 or rights under
Section 6.4.4, the Class A Member and any such AEW Board Member shall have no
fiduciary duty whatsoever to the Operating Member, and the Class A Member and
any such AEW Board Member may grant such approval or refuse to grant such
approval under this Agreement for the sole benefit of the Class A Member, as
determined in its 



                                       37
<PAGE>

sole discretion. Likewise, the Class A Member expressly agrees that with respect
to any approval right granted to the Operating Member or any Operating Member
Board Member or the exercise of the Right of First Offer pursuant to Section 8.2
or the Buy-Sell pursuant to Section 8.4, the Operating Member and any such
Operating Member Board Member shall have no fiduciary duty whatsoever to the
Class A Member, and the Operating Member and any such Operating Member Board
Member may grant such approval or refuse to grant such approval under this
Agreement for the sole benefit of the Operating Member, as determined in its
sole discretion.

                  Section 6.5.4 INSURANCE. The Operating Member shall,
consistent with the Portfolio Business Plan, maintain, for the benefit and at
the expense of the Company, such insurance in such amounts, with such carriers
and providing such coverages as satisfy the Insurance Requirements.

         Section 6.6 CLASS A MEMBER'S RIGHT TO BECOME THE MANAGING MEMBER.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if there shall exist
an Event of Default by the Operating Member hereunder or a default, beyond any
applicable notice and cure periods by the Operating Member or any Operating
Member Related Party under any Lease, contract or agreement between such party
and the Company or any Subsidiary Company, then, in any such event, the Class A
Member shall have the unilateral right, by written notice to the Operating
Member given at any time thereafter to become the managing member of the Company
and in such capacity, shall have the unilateral decision-making authority and
power to replace the Key Personnel and to take all actions on behalf of and at
the Company's expense permitted or required of a managing member of a Delaware
limited liability company, including, without limitation, all Major Decisions,
without the necessity for obtaining any consent or approval of the Operating
Member, the Operating Member Board Members or the Board. Nothing in this Section
6.6 is intended to permit the Class A Member to unilaterally Approve any
amendment to this Agreement or increase the obligations of the Operating Member
under this Agreement beyond those contained herein or permit the Class A Member
to act as the Operating Member's agent or representative.

                      ARTICLE VII -- LIABILITIES OF MEMBERS

         No Member shall be liable for any debts, liabilities, contracts or

Company.


                  ARTICLE VIII -- TRANSFER OF COMPANY INTEREST

         Section 8.1 TRANSFER BY THE MEMBERS.

                  Section 8.1.1 GENERAL RESTRICTIONS. No Member shall sell,

any Third Party to sell, assign, 



                                       38
<PAGE>

transfer, mortgage, charge or otherwise encumber, or contract to do or permit
any of the foregoing, directly or indirectly and whether voluntarily or by
operation by law (collectively referred to as a "Transfer") any part or all of
its interest or membership in the Company except as provided in this Article
VIII. Any attempt to effect any of the foregoing prohibited actions shall be
void and, in addition to other rights and remedies at law and in equity, the
other Member or Members shall be entitled to injunctive relief enjoining the
prohibited action. The Members expressly acknowledge that damages at law would
be an inadequate remedy for a breach or threatened breach of the provisions
concerning transfer set forth in this Agreement. The giving of consent or
approval by the Member required under this Article VIII in any one or more
instances shall not limit or waive the need for such consent or approval in any
other or subsequent instances. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VIII or
this Agreement to the contrary, no Member shall have the right to effect any

                  Section 8.1.2 INDIRECT TRANSFERS. For as long as BLC stock is
listed and publicly traded on a nationally recognized stock exchange, for
purposes of this Section 8.1, (i) the sale, exchange or transfer of stock in BLC
and (ii) the sale, exchange or transfer of partner interests in the Operating
Member shall not be deemed a Transfer subject to the restrictions of this
Section, provided BLC remains the sole general partner of the Operating Member.
The restrictions set forth in this Article VIII shall not be construed to limit
or restrict in any way the (i) Operating Member's or the Special Managing
Member's authority to sell the Company's assets as described and limited in
Section 8.2, (ii) indirect transfers otherwise permitted under this Article
VIII, (iii) transfers of the general partner interest in the Class A Member as a
result of the removal of the general partner of the Class A Member by its

Member or its constituent partners or members, as the case may be.

                  Section 8.1.3 PERMITTED TRANSFERS. Without any requirement for
obtaining Approval, each Member shall have the right to Transfer all or a
portion of its interest in the Company solely (a) if such Transfer is to an
Entity which is owned or controlled by, is under common ownership and control

is to an Entity in which AEW Capital Management L.P. (including any successor
thereto, including, without limitation, any successor by merger, consolidation

to direct the management, operations or business or (b) as to the Class A Member
only, if the Transfer is (i) to banks, insurance companies, public or private

                  Section 8.1.4 CONDITIONS TO SUBSTITUTIONS. An assignee or
transferee of a Member shall not be entitled to vote on Company matters and

                                       39
<PAGE>

substituted Member. Thereafter, subject to the last sentence of this Section,
such assignee shall have all rights and obligations of a Member hereunder. An
assignee or transferee shall become a substituted Member when and if the
assignee or transferee (a) pays all Company expenses incurred in connection with
its substitution; (b) submits a duly executed instrument of assignment and
assumption, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the non-assigning Member,
specifying the membership interest assigned to it and setting forth the
assigning Member's intention that the assignee succeed to such portion of the
assigning Member's membership interest and acknowledging that the assignor or
transferor remains liable for its obligations hereunder; and (c) executes a copy
of this Agreement or an amendment to this Agreement. The admission of a
substituted Member shall be effective as of the close of the day on which all of
the conditions specified in this Section 8.1.4 have been satisfied.

         Section 8.2 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER.

                  Section 8.2.1 FIRST OFFER. At any time after the first
anniversary of the date of this Agreement and provided the Buy/Sell procedure
under Section 8.4 has not previously been initiated (unless there shall have
been a default under such Buy/Sell procedure and the Buy/Sell is no longer in
effect), if either Member wishes the Company or any Subsidiary Company to sell
any Property or Properties (any such Property or Properties, collectively, the
"Target Asset"), that Member (the "Initiating Member") shall deliver a written
notice (a "First Offer Notice") to the other Member (the "Responding Member")
stating a gross purchase price (the "Offered Price") at which the Initiating
Member is prepared to have the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary Company or
Companies) sell the Target Asset. If the Target Asset is at or after the time of
the First Offer Notice under development or substantial renovation or
rehabilitation, the Offered Price shall be deemed increased on a dollar for
dollar basis by the amount of all costs incurred by the Company to fund such
development, renovation and rehabilitation expenses during the period beginning
on the date of the First Offer Notice and ending on the date of Target Asset
Closing Date. The Responding Member may elect to purchase or to cause its
nominee to purchase the Target Asset for the First Offer Price by (i) giving
written notice thereof to the Initiating Member and (ii) depositing in escrow
with the with the Company the Target Asset Deposit (hereinafter defined), each
within thirty (30) days after receipt of the First Offer Notice (the "Response
Period"); provided, however, the Response Period shall be reduced to fifteen
(15) days in the event a First Offer Notice is given under Section 8.2.7 or in
the event a subsequent First Offer Notice is given by the Initiating Member with
respect to a Target Asset during the six (6) month period described in Section
8.2.9. If the Responding Member duly elects to purchase or to cause its nominee
to purchase the Target Asset as set forth above, the Initiating Member and the
Responding Member shall cause the Company to convey the Target Asset to the
Responding Member or its nominee in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 8.2. The failure of the Responding Member to give such a responsive
notice and/or to deliver the Target Asset Deposit within the Response Period
shall be deemed an election by the Responding Member not to purchase the Target
Asset. During the Response Period, the Responding Member may also elect to issue
its own First Offer Notice with respect to such Target Asset, (a "Subsequent
First Offer Notice"), provided the gross purchase price contained in the
Subsequent First Offer Notice is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the
gross purchase price contained in 



                                       40
<PAGE>

the First Offer Notice and upon the issuance of such a Subsequent First Offer
Notice, the previous First Offer Notice shall be deemed null and void and the
Subsequent First Offer Notice shall be operative. A First Offer Notice may only
be issued with respect to a Target Asset by the Responding Member within the
Response Period as set forth above. After the Response Period, the Responding
Member may not issue a First Offer Notice with respect to a Target Asset during
the pendency of the Initiating Member's rights under Section 8.2.9 with respect
to such Target Asset.

                  Section 8.2.2 TARGET ASSET DEPOSIT; FINANCING COMMITMENT. The
"Target Asset Deposit" shall be an amount equal to One Million Dollars
($1,000,000). The Target Asset Deposit shall be delivered to the Company in
escrow together with the Responding Member's notice of election to purchase the
Target Asset.

                  Section 8.2.3 CONDITIONS. Each of the following (unless and
except to the extent waived by the Responding Member) shall be a condition to
the Responding Member's obligation to proceed with a purchase under this Section
8.2:

                           (a) As of the Target Asset Closing Date, the Company
         shall have received no notice of any eminent domain proceeding or other
         governmental taking of all or any material portion of the Target Asset,
         and there shall have occurred no material casualty to the Target Asset,
         whether insured or uninsured, which has not been restored, in either
         case, and of which the Responding Member was unaware as of the making
         of its election to purchase the Target Asset; and

                           (b) There shall be no suit, action or other
         proceeding pending on the Target Asset Closing Date before or by any
         court or governmental body seeking to restrain or prohibit, or material
         damages or other relief in connection with the sale of the Target
         Asset.

         For purposes of this Section 8.2.3, (i) a "material casualty" shall
mean a casualty resulting in damage to any Property constituting part of the
Target Asset requiring repairs (as estimated by an engineer reasonably
acceptable to the Class A Member and the Operating Member) costing in excess of
two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000), and (ii) a "material portion"
shall mean the taking by eminent domain of (A) an area of any Property
constituting part of the Target Asset having a material adverse effect upon
access to any Property constituting part of the Target Asset or parking at any
Property constituting part of the Target Asset, (B) any portion of a building
located at any Property constituting part of the Target Asset, or (C) any
portion of any Property constituting part of the Target Asset having a material
adverse impact upon the use of the Target Asset for its intended purposes or its
continued compliance with applicable laws. If there shall occur a casualty or
taking that is not "material," then there shall be no corresponding adjustment
to the Purchase Price and the insurance proceeds for such casualty or the
eminent domain award for such taking shall be assigned to the Responding Member
on the Target Asset Closing Date.

                  Section 8.2.4 ADJUSTMENTS AND CLOSING COSTS. The following
adjustments and prorations shall be made on any sale of the Target Asset to the
Responding Member pursuant to this Section 8.2 (references to the Company shall
be deemed to be made to the respective Subsidiary Company if the Target Asset is
owned by a Subsidiary Company):

                           (a) The Company shall pay the actual cost of all
         transfer taxes and documentary stamps and any prepayment fees due under
         any loans coming due, if any, as a result of such sale;

                           (b) The Responding Member or its nominee shall pay
         all title fees, recording costs and if applicable, recording taxes,
         loan assumption fees, termination fees under any Leases and all fees
         and costs customarily paid by buyers of real property in the state or
         states where the Target Asset is located;

                           (c) Each Member shall pay its own legal fees;

                           (d) Taxes on the Target Asset shall be prorated
         between the Company and the Responding Member, according to the closing
         customs of the local real estate bar within which the Target Asset is
         located. In the event that real estate taxes are not ordinarily
         prorated between a buyer and seller on the basis of the taxes paid for
         the most recent fiscal year, with a subsequent re-proration promptly
         after issuance of the tax bill for the year of the closing ("Customary
         Adjustments"), then the Initiating Member shall clearly state in the
         First Offer Notice the basis upon which taxes will be adjusted for all
         Properties included in the Target Asset. Special assessment liens
         certified as of the closing shall be paid by the Company. Collected
         rents and other customary closing adjustments shall be adjusted to the
         date of closing in a customary manner, provided, however, that in all
         events all rental income from the Target Asset accruing prior to the
         Target Asset Closing Date shall remain the property of the Company. The
         Company shall be responsible for paying management fees, insurance,
         debt service and other operating costs through the Target Asset Closing
         Date. The Company shall either deliver to the Responding Member, or
         give the Responding Member a credit against the Purchase Price for the
         amount of any tenant security deposits and other prepaid rent with
         respect to the Target Asset. If any rent attributable to the period
         prior to the closing is collected after the closing, the Responding
         Member shall promptly remit to the Company the amounts so collected;
         and

                           (e) If the Target Asset consists of all or
         substantially all of the Properties, then all Default Loans shall
         become due and payable on the Target Asset Closing Date and reconciled
         at the closing.

                  Section 8.2.5 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.

                  Section 8.2.6 CLOSING. The closing on any sale of the Target
Asset to a Member pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be held on the date sixty
(60) days (or thirty (30) days in the 



                                       42
<PAGE>

event Section 8.2.7 is applicable) following the date the Responding Member
elects to purchase the Target Asset (or on the first Business Day thereafter if
such date is not a Business Day) or on such earlier date as the Responding
Member may specify on at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the
Initiating Member (in either event, the "Target Asset Closing Date"). The
closing shall be held at such location as the Responding Party may reasonably
designate at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Target Asset Closing
Date. The purchase price for the Target Asset (the "Purchase Price") shall be
the Offered Price, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 8.2.4, if
applicable. At the closing, the Purchase Price shall be payable to the Company
or applicable Subsidiary Company, by wire transfer of immediately available
federal funds. The Target Asset shall be conveyed to the Responding Party or its
nominee subject to then existing title encumbrances other than any Prohibited
Mortgage. A "Prohibited Mortgage" is any mortgage or other lien securing the
payment of money that is not a Permitted Mortgage. A "Permitted Mortgage" means
any mortgage or other lien securing the payment of money if (i) either (A) the
consent of the holder of such mortgage or lien is not required for the transfer
of the Target Asset to the Responding Member or its nominee or (B) the consent
of the holder of such mortgage or lien is required for the transfer of the
Target Asset to the Responding Member or its nominee and such consent has been
obtained, and (ii) if applicable, the Initiating Member has been released from
any personal guaranties or indemnities or other undertakings granted with
respect to such mortgage or lien or in connection with the Target Asset. The
Responding Member may elect, by written notice given to the Initiating Member
not later than thirty (30) days prior to the Target Asset Closing Date, to
purchase the Target Asset subject to any then existing Permitted Mortgage. The
Company shall apply such portion of the Purchase Price as is necessary to
discharge any Prohibited Mortgage (or any Permitted Mortgage not being assumed).
If the Target Asset is conveyed to the Responding Member subject to a Permitted
Mortgage, the purchase price payable to the Company or the appropriate
Subsidiary Company shall be reduced by the amount of principal and interest
owing with respect to such Permitted Mortgage as of the Target Asset Closing
Date. At the closing, the Target Asset Deposit shall be credited towards the
Purchase Price and the Target Asset Deposit shall become the property of the
Company.

                  Section 8.2.7 RESPONDING MEMBER'S FAILURE TO CLOSE. In the
event the sale of the Target Asset to the Responding Member fails to close on
the Target Asset Closing Date, and such failure to close is a result of a
default by the Responding Member, then in addition to any other rights the
nondefaulting Member may have hereunder, (i) the Target Asset Deposit may be
retained by the Company as liquidated damages, and (ii) the Initiating Member
may elect to sell the Target Asset to a Third Party pursuant to Section 8.2.9.
In addition, in the event the nondefaulting Member issues a new First Offer
Notice with respect to such Target Asset during the twelve month period after
the default by the Responding Member, the Response Period with respect to such
First Offer Notice shall be fifteen (15) days and the closing of the disposition
of the Target Asset to the Responding Member pursuant to Section 8.2.6 shall be
held no later than the date thirty (30) days following the date the Responding
Member elects to purchase the Target Asset (or on the first Business Day
thereafter if such date is not a Business Day).

                  Section 8.2.8 BROKERAGE. No brokerage fees or commissions
shall be payable by the Company (or any Subsidiary Company) in connection with
any purchase by a Member 



                                       43
<PAGE>

pursuant to this Section 8.2; and each Member shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company and the other Member from and against any such claims made based
upon the actions of such Member, including any fees and expenses in defending
any such claims.

                  Section 8.2.9 SALE TO THIRD PARTY. If the Responding Member
elects not to purchase the Target Asset or is deemed not to have elected to
purchase the Target Asset, or in the event of a sale under this Section 8.2.9
expressly permitted pursuant to Section 8.2.7, the Initiating Member may,
without the further consent of the Responding Member or the Board Members
designated by the Responding Member, cause the Company to sell the Target Asset
to a Third Party on an all cash basis for an "adjusted gross purchase price" of
not less than ninety five percent (95%) of the Offered Price originally proposed
by the Initiating Member (subject to adjustment for development, renovation and
rehabilitation costs as set forth in Section 8.2.1). In connection with a sale
of the Target Asset to a Third Party pursuant to this Section 8.2.9, an
agreement of sale must be entered into within six months following (i) in the
case of an election not to purchase, the date of receipt by the Initiating
Member of written notice from the Responding Member of such election; and (ii)
in the case of a deemed election not to purchase, the end of the Response
Period; and (iii) in the case of a sale to a Third Party pursuant to Section
8.2.7, the original Target Asset Closing Date and the closing must occur within
120 days after the execution of such written contract. For purposes of this
Section 8.2.9, "adjusted gross purchase price" shall mean the gross purchase
price for the Property to be paid by a Third Party purchaser (prior to
calculation of prorations, prepayment fees, and the like) reduced only by any
termination fees under the Lease of the Target Asset which the Company has
agreed to assume as a result of such sale. For example, if the Offered Price for
a Target Asset is $10,000,000, the gross purchase price for the sale of the
Target Asset to a Third Party is $9,800,000 and in connection with the sale of
the Target Asset to such Third Party, the Company has agreed to assume a
termination fee under the Lease of the Target Asset on the Target Asset Closing
Date equal to $250,000, the "adjusted gross purchase price" shall be $9,550,000,
i.e. 95.5% of the Offered Price, then the Initiating Member may cause Company to
sell the Target Asset without the further consent of the Responding Member.
Alternatively, if the Company agrees to assume a lease termination fee of
$400,000, the "adjusted gross purchase price" would be $9,400,000, i.e. 94% of
the Offered Price, and the consent of the Responding Member to such sale would
be required. If the Company fails to sell the Target Asset pursuant to the terms
and conditions set forth above for any reason other than the willful act or
omission of the Responding Member, neither Member shall be entitled to require
the Company to sell the Target Asset without again complying with the provisions
of this Section 8.2.

                  Section 8.2.10 CLASS A MEMBER AS INITIATING MEMBER. If the
Class A Member is the Initiating Member pursuant to Section 8.2.1, then, solely
for the purpose of consummating the sale of the Target Asset in accordance with
the provisions of Section 8.2.6, 8.2.7 or 8.2.9, the Class A Member shall have
the right, upon five (5) days' written notice given to the Operating Member, to
unilaterally propose and approve itself or a Person of its choosing to be the
interim Managing Member of the Company (the "Special Managing Member") and upon
such unilateral proposal and approval by the Class A Member and in the case of
the designation of another Person to be the Special Managing Member, the
assignment of some or all of the Class A 



                                       44
<PAGE>

Member's membership interest to the Special Managing Member (which assignment
shall be permitted hereunder without the approval of any Member, including the
Operating Member), the Special Managing Member shall thereafter have the
exclusive power and authority, at any time and from time to time, acting singly,
without the further consent of any other Member, including the Operating Member,
to sell and transfer (a "Disposition") the Target Asset in accordance with
Sections 8.2.6, 8.2.7 or 8.2.9. The Operating Member shall fully cooperate with
the Special Managing Member in the exercise of the rights conferred on the
Special Managing Member hereunder and shall take all action reasonably requested
by the Special Managing Member to consummate the sale of the Target Asset,
including without limitation, confirming the power and authority granted to the
Special Managing Member hereunder. The Operating Member shall not take any
action which would prevent, interfere with or constrain in any way the exercise
of the rights of the Special Managing Member to dispose of the Target Asset. In
furtherance of the Special Managing Member's rights under this Section 8.2.10,
the Special Managing Member shall have full power and authority to take all
action necessary or incidental to effect the Disposition of the Target Asset,
including, without limitation, engaging on behalf of the Company and at the
Company's expense, one or more real estate brokers to market the Target Asset
upon customary market terms and conditions (provided the terms of any such
agreement may not bind the Company after the six month period described in
Section 8.2.9 if the Company fails to enter a purchase and sale agreement within
such period or fails to close on the Target Asset within the 120 day period
described in Section 8.2.9), entering into contracts and agreements, oral or in
writing, executing and delivering deeds and all of the other rights and powers
granted to the Operating Member hereunder to accomplish the foregoing. The
rights of the Special Managing Member with respect to the Disposition of the
Target Asset shall be exclusive and the Operating Member shall not take any
action inconsistent with the foregoing. The Operating Member shall cause the
Company to take any action reasonably necessary to accomplish the foregoing,
including, but not limited to, causing the Company to take all action necessary
or appropriate to accomplish the Disposition of the Target Asset and any action
necessary or appropriate to confirm the rights of the Special Managing Member
hereunder. With respect only to the sale of a Target Asset pursuant to section
8.2, the Special Managing Member shall be entitled to the same rights and have
all of the powers as the Operating Member hereunder, and shall, in connection
with its actions as Special Managing Member, have the fiduciary obligations to
the Company as are imposed upon the Operating Member hereunder. The Operating
Member shall retain its other rights, obligations and powers with respect to the
Company following the appointment of the Special Managing Member. If the
Operating Member is the Initiating Member pursuant to Section 8.2.1, then,
solely for the purpose of consummating the sale of the Target Asset in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2.6, 8.2.7 or 8.2.9, the Operating
Member shall have the same powers and authorities as the Special Managing Member
would have had as described above and the Class A Member shall in good faith
cooperate in all reasonable respects to effect the consummation of such sale,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Nothing in this Section
8.2.10 is intended to modify the provisions of Section 6.4.3.

                  Section 8.2.11 INTERRELATIONSHIP OF BUY-SELL.

                           (a) An Initiating Member under Section 8.2.1 shall
                  have no right to give a Buy/Sell Offering Notice during the
                  Response Period. The Responding Member under Section 8.2.1 may
                  give a Buy/Sell Offering Notice during the Response Period,
                  provided however that if the Target Asset as described in the
                  First Offer Notice consists of all or substantially all of the
                  Properties, then the Responding Member may give a Buy/Sell
                  Offering Notice during the Response Period only if the
                  Proposed Value indicated in the Buy/Sell Offering Notice is
                  less than ninety percent (90%) of the Offered Price set forth
                  in the First Offer Notice.

                           (b) If the Responding Member validly issues a
                  Buy/Sell Offering Notice during the Response Period, then the
                  First Offer Notice shall be deemed null and void and the
                  provisions of Section 8.4 shall control.

                           (c) If (i) the Responding Member under Section 8.2.1
                  fails to elect to purchase the Target Asset during the
                  Response Period and (ii) the Target Asset consists of more
                  than seventy five percent (75%) of the number of the
                  Properties, then the Responding Member shall have no right to
                  give a Buy/Sell Notice during the period beginning on the date
                  thirty (30) days after the end of the Response Period and
                  ending on the termination of the six (6) month period
                  described in Section 8.2.9.

                           (d) If (i) the Responding Member duly elects to buy
                  the Target Asset under Section 8.2.1, and (ii) during the
                  period subsequent to such election but before acquisition of
                  such Target Asset by the Responding Member either Member gives
                  a Buy/Sell Offering Notice, then the Responding Member shall
                  nonetheless have the right and be obligated to acquire the
                  Property pursuant to this Section 8.2, but the Proposed Value
                  in the Buy/Sell Offer Notice shall take into account the value
                  of the Target Asset.

                           (e) if any Property or Target Asset is under a
                  binding agreement for sale with a Third Party at the time of
                  the issuance of a Buy/Sell Offering Notice, the Members agree
                  to sell such Property or Target Asset pursuant to the terms of
                  such agreement, but the Proposed Value in the Buy/Sell Offer
                  Notice shall take into account the value of the Target Asset.

         Section 8.3 MEMBERS

                  Section 8.3.1 TERMINATING EVENT. Upon the occurrence of a
Terminating Event with respect to a Member, the Legal Successor of the Member
shall continue to possess the Member's interest in Company distributions, but
shall possess no rights of approval or decision otherwise attendant to such
interest.

                  Section 8.3.2 WITHDRAWAL BY MEMBERS. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Act to the contrary, no Member may resign, withdraw or withdraw
capital from the Company, except pursuant to a right expressly set forth herein.

         Section 8.4 BUY/SELL.

                  Section 8.4.1 BUY/SELL OFFERING NOTICE. Subject to Section
8.2.11, the operation of this Section 8.4 may be triggered upon written notice
(the "Buy/Sell Offering Notice") by either Member given at any time after the
earlier of (x) the date eighteen (18) months after the date of this Agreement
and (y) the occurrence of a Change in Control, in each case provided that there
is no Event of Default with respect to the Member initiating such notice and the
provisions of this Section 8.4 are not then in effect with respect to a prior
Buy/Sell Offering Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Member
may issue a Buy/Sell Offering Notice within ten (10) Business Days of its
receipt of a notice from the Class A Member that the Class A Member is
exercising its right to become the managing member of the Company pursuant to
Section 6.6. The Member duly triggering such right shall be the "Initiating
Member" and the other Member shall be the "Responding Member" for the purposes
of this Section 8.4. The Buy/Sell Offering Notice shall set forth an amount
determined by the Initiating Member as the basis for the calculations required
under Section 8.4.3 (the "Proposed Value"), and shall include a calculation of
the Sale Price and the Buy Price, as calculated pursuant to Section 8.4.3. No
Buy/Sell Offering Notice or responsive notice under this Section 8.4 may be
rescinded without the written consent of each of the Members.

                  Section 8.4.2 VERIFICATION NOTICE. Within twenty (20) days
after the Buy/Sell Offering Notice is received, the Responding Member shall
promptly and in good faith review the same and shall give written notice (the
"Verification Notice") to the Initiating Member identifying errors in
calculating the Buy Price and/or the Sell Price or such other matters as the
Initiating Member may reasonably request in the Buy/Sell Offering Notice to be
verified; provided that the Responding Member shall have no right or obligation
to verify the accuracy of the Proposed Value. If the Responding Member gives a
Verification Notice, which, if correct, would increase the Sale Price or reduce
the Buy Price by more than three percent (3%) in either event, the Initiating
Member shall have the right, within five (5) days after receipt of the
Verification Notice, by written notice to the Responding Member, to withdraw the
Buy/Sell Offering Notice, in which event the parties shall return to the STATUS
QUO ANTE.

                  Section 8.4.3 RESPONSIVE NOTICE. Unless the Buy/Sell Offering
Notice is withdrawn as set forth above, within 30 days following the date of the
Buy/Sell Offering Notice, the Responding Member shall deliver to the Initiating
Member a responsive notice, without qualification or condition, electing either:

                           (a) To sell to the Initiating Member the entirety of
         the Responding Member's interest in the Company at a price (the "Sale
         Price") equal to the amount of cash that would be distributed to the
         Responding Member under Section 5.4, if all of the assets of the
         Company were sold for cash in the amount of the Proposed Value taking


                                       47

<PAGE>


         into account the allocations set forth in Article IV which would be
         required to be made as a result of such sale and the adjustments
         required to be made hereunder; OR

                           (b) To purchase from the Initiating Member the
         entirety of the Initiating Member's interest in the Company at a price
         (the "Buy Price") equal to the amount of cash that would be distributed
         to the Initiating Member under Section 5.4 if all of the assets of the
         Company were sold for cash in the amount of the Proposed Value taking
         into account the allocations set forth in Article IV which would be
         required to be made as a result of such sale and the adjustments
         required to be made hereunder.

The failure of the Responding Member to give such a responsive notice (without
qualification or condition) within the required time period shall be deemed
notice of an election to sell its entire interest under clause (a) above. The
date as of which the Responding Member shall have given notice of its election
(or be deemed to have made an election) shall be the "Buy/Sell Election Date."

         In calculating the amount which would be distributed to the applicable
Member under either (a) or (b) above, the parties shall assume that the sum of
$50,000 (or such lesser amount as is then known to be sufficient for such
purposes) shall be deemed set aside for liquidation costs and reserves, and all
Company indebtedness shall be deemed to be retired as of the Closing Date. If
any Company indebtedness becomes due as a result of the closing under this
Section 8.4 or at the time of closing any indebtedness of the Company is prepaid
(any such indebtedness shall be collectively "Accelerated Debt"), then Company
indebtedness shall include all prepayment penalties due on Accelerated Debt as
of the date of closing. Otherwise prepayment penalties on Company indebtedness
shall not be taken into account.

                  Section 8.4.4 BUY/SELL DEPOSIT. The Member bound to purchase
pursuant to the election referenced in Section 8.4.3 (the "Purchaser," and the
other Member shall be the "Seller") shall be required to make an earnest money
deposit (the "Buy/Sell Deposit") in an amount equal to One Million Dollars
($1,000,000). The Buy/Sell Deposit shall be delivered in escrow within five (5)
Business Days following the Buy/Sell Election Date, in immediately available
funds, to a national title insurance company reasonably acceptable to Seller,
who shall perform the services of escrow agent. The Buy/Sell Deposit shall be
nonrefundable to the Purchaser (except in the event of a material default of the
Seller in performing its closing obligations pursuant to Section 8.4.5).

                  Section 8.4.5 CLOSING PROCESS. The Purchaser shall fix a
closing date (the "Closing Date") not later than sixty (60) days following the
Buy/Sell Election Date by notifying the Seller in writing of the Closing Date
not less than ten (10) days prior thereto. The closing shall take place on the
Closing Date at the principal office of the Company or such other location as
the Purchaser shall reasonably designate at least five (5) Business Days prior
to the Closing Date. The purchase price for the Seller's interest shall be paid
in immediately available funds and the Seller shall convey good and marketable
title to its membership interest in the Company to Purchaser or its designee
free and clear of all liens and encumbrances. Each Member agrees to


                                       48

<PAGE>


cooperate and to take all actions and execute all documents reasonably necessary
or appropriate to reflect the purchase of the Seller's interest by the
Purchaser. The Operating Member shall in good faith prepare a balance sheet for
the Company as of the date of determination of the Closing Date showing all
items of adjustment described below and such adjustments shall be made as of the
Closing Date. At the closing, the following adjustments shall be made to
Proposed Value as set forth in the Buy/Sell Offering Notice in order to complete
the final calculation of the applicable purchase price due Seller:

                           (a) There shall also be added to the Proposed Value
         (i) the amount of cash and cash equivalents then held by the Company or
         any Subsidiary Company (ii) the amount of any cash receivables of the
         Company and other tangible liquid assets which are customarily the
         subject of adjustment between buyers and sellers of Lodging Facilities
         (iii) the aggregate of all Contributions made by the Members during the
         period (the "Closing Period") commencing on the date of the Buy/Sell
         Offering Notice and ending on the Closing Date and (iv) if any Property
         is acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary Company during the Closing
         Period, the gross purchase price of such Property; and

                           (b) There shall be subtracted from the Proposed Value
         (i) the amount of any accounts payable and other liabilities of the
         Company which are customarily the subject of adjustment between buyers
         and sellers of Lodging Facilities and (ii) if any Property is sold by
         the Company or any Subsidiary Company during the Closing Period, the
         gross sale price of such Property.

The cost of any title insurance policy endorsements desired by the Purchaser
shall be paid by the Purchaser. All other costs shall be borne by the party who
customarily bears such costs. Any risk of casualty, condemnation or loss prior
to the Closing Date shall be borne by Purchaser, who shall succeed to all rights
to insurance proceeds or condemnation awards (and any such casualty or
condemnation proceeds received by the Company after the date of the Buy/Sell
Notice shall not be taken into account in the adjustment of the Proposed Value
set forth above). In no event shall Purchaser be required to repay or to cause
the Company to repay any indebtedness of the Company at such closing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.4, it shall
be a condition precedent to Seller's obligation to close on the Closing Date
that Purchaser obtains for the benefit of Seller releases from any and all
monetary or other guaranties (including, without limitation, hazardous
substances indemnities and the like) ("Guaranties") given by Seller to Third
Party lenders. If following the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts the
Purchaser is unable to obtain releases from all Guaranties, then the Purchaser
shall provide to the Seller indemnities reasonably satisfactory to Seller to
address the contingent liability contained in the unreleased Guaranties. All
adjustments to Proposed Value shall be made on the basis of good faith estimates
of the Members using currently available information, and final adjustment shall
be made promptly after precise figures are determined or available, and in any
event within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. In addition, on the
Closing Date or on any other date when a Member is transferring its entire
interest in the Company to the other Member or a Related Party of the other
Member, all Default Loans made


                                       49

<PAGE>


by the Purchaser on the Seller's behalf shall be repaid in full from the sale
proceeds otherwise payable to the Seller and all Default Loans made by the
Seller on the Purchaser's behalf shall be repaid in full by adding the amount
thereof to the sale proceeds otherwise due the Seller.

                  Section 8.4.6 INTENTIONALLY DELETED.

                  Section 8.4.7 FAILURE TO CLOSE. If the Purchaser fails to
perform its obligations under this Section 8.4 (following such failure, the
"Defaulting Purchaser"), the Seller, in addition to its other rights hereunder,
is entitled to retain the Deposit, and shall have the additional right to
purchase the interest of the Defaulting Purchaser for a price equal to ninety
percent (90%) of the amount the Defaulting Purchaser would have received
pursuant to Section 8.4.2 had it been the Seller rather than the Purchaser, and
subject to the same adjustments as set forth herein, upon written notice to the
Purchaser given within thirty (30) days after the originally scheduled Closing
Date. If the Seller elects to purchase the interest of the Defaulting Purchaser,
Seller shall deposit the Buy/Sell Deposit in escrow within five (5) business
days following its notice to elect to purchase the interest of the Defaulting
Purchaser, the closing of such purchase shall take place in accordance with the
provisions hereof, except that the Closing Date shall be not later than ninety
(90) days following the date on which the notice electing such purchase is
given. If the Seller shall fail to perform its obligations under this Section
8.4, the Purchaser shall have all rights and remedies available to it hereunder
or at law or equity, including, without limitation, the right to seek specific
performance. The Defaulting Purchaser shall lose the right to give a Buy/Sell
Offering Notice for a period of twelve months after the date such Defaulting
Purchaser failed to perform its obligations under this Section 8.4.

         Section 8.5 EFFECT UPON TRANSFEREES. Following any Transfer of the 
interest or membership of any Member effective under this Agreement, the 
provisions of this Article VIII shall be binding upon such transferee Member. 
Any transferee of such interest who is admitted as a successor Member shall 
enjoy fully the benefits and be subject to the burdens of such provisions.

         Section 8.6 QUALIFIED ORGANIZATIONS. The Operating Member hereby 
represents and covenants that it is not and will not become (for so long as 
it is a Member in the Company) a Qualified Organization and, further, that so 
long as the Operating Member is classified as a partnership for federal 
income tax purposes, no equity interest in the Operating Member will be held 
directly, or indirectly through one or more entities taxed as partnerships or 
disregarded for federal income tax purposes, by a Qualified Organization. In 
addition to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Article VIII, the 
Operating Member further represents and covenants that it will not transfer 
or assign or permit the transfer or assignment of all or any portion of its 
interest as a Member, or of any direct or indirect interest in itself (other 
than pursuant to this Agreement or any instrument entered into pursuant to 
this Agreement), that would result in the direct or indirect or beneficial 
ownership by a Qualified Organization of any interest in the Company held or 
formerly held by or through such Member; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Qualified 
Organization may own an indirect interest in the Company through a taxable 
corporation or a REIT. If the Operating Member or any of the holders of 
interests in the Operating Member fails

                                       50

<PAGE>


to comply with the requirements of this Section 8.6, or breach any of the
representations and covenants made in connection therewith, and such failure or
breach causes or contributes to the failure of the Company to comply with the
requirements of Code Section 514(c)(9)(E) and the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder, said Operating Member or holder shall be liable to the
Company, to the Class A Member and to any direct or indirect investors in the
Class A Member for any damages resulting directly or indirectly therefrom,
including but not limited to any unrelated business income tax incurred by the
Class A Member (and its constituent partners) with respect to its investment in
the Company.

         occupancy payments or otherwise arising from ownership of a Property,
         in one or more bank accounts established in the name of the Company or
         the applicable Subsidiary Company by the Operating Member (each a
         "Property Account"). Each such Property Account shall be in the name of
         the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Company. In no event shall any
         Property Account be co-mingled with any accounts of any other party.
         The Property Account shall be deposited in such depository institution
         under such arrangements as the Operating Member may determine. Any
         investment of funds shall be made in the name of the Company or the
         applicable Subsidiary Company and shall be consistent with investment
         guidelines stated in the Approved Portfolio Business Plan (as
         hereinafter defined). At the request of the Class A Member, the
         Operating Member shall cause all such funds received to be transferred
         into a master account of the Company (the "Master Account"), subject to
         sufficient funds being reserved in any Property Account to pay for all
         contemplated expenses of the corresponding Property.

                           (b) In connection with the development, construction
         or reconstruction of a Project, the Operating Member shall establish a
         separate interest-bearing bank account (each a "Development Account")
         for the Project in the name of the Company. To the extent that a
         Project is funded by a Mortgage Loan, any disbursements requested by
         the Company shall be deposited directly in the applicable Development
         Account. Any Contributions made in accordance with Section 3.1 for a
         Project shall also be deposited in the applicable Development Account.
         In no event shall a Development Account be commingled with any account
         of the Operating Member. The Operating Member shall not change any
         depository institution or depository arrangement without the approval
         of the Board, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
         delayed.

         Account until there is an Event of Default with respect to the
         Operating Member, shall only draw upon any Property Account and Master
         Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall
         promptly give the Operating Member notice if it draws upon any Property
         Account or Master Account. Upon an Event of Default with respect to the
         Operating Member, the Operating Member's authority to draw against any
         Master Account may be suspended or terminated by the Class A Member, in
         which event the Class A Member and the Operating Member shall establish
         an alternative method of paying obligations of the Company.

                           (d) The Operating Member shall have fiduciary
         responsibility for the safekeeping and use of all funds and assets of
         the Company and each Subsidiary Company. The funds of the Company and
         of any Subsidiary Company shall not be commingled with the funds of any
         other Person and the Operating Member shall not employ such funds in
         any manner except for the benefit of the Company or the Subsidiary
         Company.

                           (a) The Operating Member shall maintain and develop
         on a current basis a uniform system of accounts and document filing
         system with respect to the Company, each Subsidiary Company and each
         Property. All such records shall be maintained at a principal office of
         the Company.

                           (b) The Operating Member shall maintain files related

                  Section 9.5.3 ANNUAL BUDGETS.

                           (a) As part of each Asset Business Plan, the
         Operating Member shall prepare and submit to the Board for the Board's
         approval each year a detailed budget for each Property in the form and
         containing the information as is required by the terms of EXHIBIT H-2
         or in the alternative deliver to the Board budgets prepared by tenants
         under the Leases which satisfy the requirements of EXHIBIT H-2. The
         Operating Member shall review proposed budgets prepared by tenants
         under Leases and shall forward such proposed budgets when received for
         the Class A Member's review and in any event prior to December 1 of
         each year. The Members shall thereafter work together to review the
         budgets and coordinate discussions with each tenant under a Lease to
         finalize such budgets.

                           (b) The Operating Member shall use all commercially
         reasonable efforts to avoid (or cause a tenant under a Lease to avoid)
         causing the actual costs of operation and management of any Property to
         exceed the applicable Approved Budget either in total or in any one
         accounting category. The Operating Member shall secure prior Approval
         before expending, obligating the Company for or approving any
         expenditure in connection with the operation and management of any
         Property that would result in a budget line item or category being
         exceeded by at least the greater of: (a) $15,000, or (b) ten percent
         (10%) or more in that category of the applicable Approved Budget,
         PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that where emergency action is necessary to prevent
         imminent risk to health and safety, imminent property damage, or
         imminent imposition of criminal or civil sanctions against the Company
         or any Member, the Operating Member may make, or cause to be made,
         expenditures not contemplated by the Approved Budget IF (A) any
         expenditure made without the Board's consent is, in the Operating
         Member's good faith judgment, reasonable under the circumstances and
         (B) the Operating Member endeavors diligently and in good faith (1) to
         notify the Class A Member of any such emergency and (2) obtain verbal
         approval for any required expenditure. Notwithstanding the above, the
         Operating Member may make or cause to be made an expenditure in excess
         of the corresponding amount in the Approved Budget which is (a) paid
         for real estate taxes, utility costs, insurance premiums or other like
         nondiscretionary expenses and over which the Operating Member has no
         reasonable control (each a "Nondiscretionary Expense"), or (b) incurred
         pursuant to and in accordance with any contract or agreement


                                       55

<PAGE>


         theretofore entered into by or on behalf of the Company that is either
         permitted hereunder or otherwise Approved. Except as specifically
         provided herein, all expenses must be charged to the proper accounting
         category as specified in the Approved Schedule of Accounts and no
         expense may be classified or reclassified for the purpose of avoiding
         an excess in the annual budgeted amount of any accounting category.

                           (c) In the case of any Property involving renovation
         or construction, the Operating Member shall prepare a construction
         budget based on the projected construction costs of the applicable
         project (when approved in writing by the Board, the "CONSTRUCTION
         BUDGET"), including, without limitation all so-called "hard" and "soft"
         costs and other capital requirements. The Construction Budget shall
         include the estimated timing and amount of all projected construction
         expenses and shall be accompanied by a construction and development
         status report containing a cost-savings analysis, a description of any
         change-orders and a summary of any deviations of the proposed
         construction budget from the then existing Construction Budget and
         original Construction Budget. The Operating Member shall update such
         Construction Budget for each such project as needed from time to time,
         for Approval.

                           (d) The Operating Member shall use all commercially
         reasonable efforts to avoid (or cause tenant under a Lease to avoid)
         causing the actual costs of development and construction of any such
         construction project to exceed the Approved Construction Budget, either
         in total or any one accounting category. The Operating Member shall
         notify the Board in each instance that the Operating Member moves funds
         from the "contingency" line item of the Approved Construction Budget to
         any other line item in any Approved Construction Budget. The Class A
         Member acknowledges that it will not object to contingency line items
         which are less than five percent (5%) of the aggregate costs contained
         in an Approved Construction Budget. In addition, the Operating Member
         shall obtain Approval in advance of authorizing the General Contractor
         to incur costs that the General Contractor proposes to be charged to
         the line item of the Approved Construction Budget which would exceed
         the greater of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in any one
         instance, or (ii) five percent of the amount of the "contingency" line
         item of the Approved Construction Budget. The Operating Member shall
         obtain Approval before expending, obligating the Company for or
         approving any expenditure in connection with the construction and
         development of any Property in excess of amounts provided for in the
         applicable Approved Construction Budget. Any material change in
         materials, systems or quality of components shall be promptly explained
         to the Board by the Operating Member as part of the Operating Member's
         monthly reporting pursuant to Section 9.5.4 below.

                           (e) The Operating Member shall further prepare and
         propose for Approval, from time to time, but no more often than
         quarterly, such additional revisions to the Approved Budgets as may
         reasonably be required to reflect changes in costs or expenditures in
         redevelopment and management of the Properties.

                  Section 9.5.4 MONTHLY REPORTS. The Operating Member shall
prepare monthly reports ("Monthly Statements") of all transactions occurring
during such month to be furnished to the Board with respect to each Property AND
a report for all Properties on a consolidated and consolidating basis, in each
case within twenty (20) days after the end of each calendar month during the
term of this Agreement. The Monthly Statement shall be designed so as to clearly
and efficiently communicate to the Board relevant information compiled on an
asset by asset basis, and on a consolidated, overall portfolio basis. The
general requirements for all Monthly Statements and other financial reports are
set forth in EXHIBIT H-3 attached hereto.

                  Section 9.5.5 ANNUAL REPORTS. Within sixty (60) days after the
end of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement (and within sixty
(60) days after the date of termination of this Agreement, if such termination
does not occur on and as of the last day of a calendar year), the Operating
Member shall, if so requested by the Class A Member, arrange for and furnish to
the Class A Member annual audited financial statements for such (full or
partial) calendar year accurately reflecting the financial condition and the
results of operation of each Property individually and of all of the Properties
on a consolidated and consolidating basis (the "Audited Annual Report"), all
prepared and certified by the Accountants in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, consistently applied, and the applicable provisions of
this Agreement. If the Accountants are unable to prepare and deliver to the
Class A Member the Audited Annual Reports within sixty (60) days following the
end of the respective calendar year, then, within such sixty (60) day period,
(i) the Operating Member shall deliver to the Class A Member the unaudited
financial statements of the Company for such (full or partial) calendar year,
and (ii) the Accountants shall provide a written statement to the Class A Member
stating that, based upon their review of the financial statements delivered
pursuant to clause (i) and to the best of their knowledge and belief, the
Audited Annual Report when delivered will not indicate any adverse changes from
the financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (i). In any event, the
Operating Member shall cause the Audited Annual Report to be delivered to the
Class A Member not later than ninety (90) days following the end of the
respective calendar year. The Audited Annual Report shall be accompanied by a
compliance letter prepared by the Accountants or other party agreed upon by the
Operating Member and the Class A Member indicating that the Operating Member is
in compliance with its reporting requirements under this Agreement. The Class A
Member shall have the unilateral right to appoint, on behalf of the Company, the
Accountants to perform such audit.

                  Section 9.5.6 TAX RETURNS. The Operating Member shall prepare
or cause to be prepared drafts of all tax returns required of the Company. The
Operating Member shall submit drafts of all tax returns (including all schedules
and exhibits thereto and upon request, copies of all supporting workpapers),
together with a request to the Board for its consent at least thirty (30) days
prior to the required filing date thereof. The Operating Member shall file or
cause to be filed all such tax returns required of the Company once Approved.
Any decisions regarding or affecting the reporting or characterization for tax
purposes of items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction including, but not
limited to, whether to make any available election pursuant to the Code and the
regulations which will materially affect the taxation of the Class A Member or
any of its constituent partners shall require Approval. The Class A Member shall
have the


                                       57

<PAGE>


unilateral right to appoint, on behalf of the Company, the Accountants to
perform the annual tax audit.

                  Section 9.5.7 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. The Class A Member may
from time to time, reasonably modify, supplement or amend the reporting
requirements of this Agreement in its reasonable discretion, and the Operating
Member shall supply such additional information as the Class A Member may
reasonably request, provided that the Company shall reimburse the Operating
Member for its costs incurred in connection with any material increase in
reporting requirements. In addition, the following general requirements shall
apply to all financial reports required under this Agreement: all such reports
shall be prepared typed or computer-generated on forms reasonably acceptable to
the Class A Member and shall include all detail required by the Approved
Schedule of Accounts; the Operating Member shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to maintain electronically, in format reasonably acceptable to the Class
A Member, all financial and operating information, in order to enable the Class
A Member to maintain its core data base and shall cooperate with the Class A
Member to make such data available to the Class A Member in a manner mutually
acceptable to the parties hereto; all statements and reports shall be prepared
on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
except as otherwise required hereunder; and all such reports shall be certified
as true and correct to the best knowledge of the Operating Member. Each
financial report shall include comparisons of actual results for the period to
previously forecasted results in the Final Approval Package and the Asset
Business Plans, each on a consolidated and a consolidating basis. The Operating
Member shall cooperate with the Class A Member's accountants in the preparation
of the Class A Member's annual financial statements and with the institution and
maintenance of an on-line, accounting system mutually acceptable to the parties
hereto.

                  Section 9.5.8 SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION. As additional support
to required reporting information under this Agreement, the Operating Member, at
the Class A Member's reasonable request shall provide (or cause tenants under
Leases to provide) copies of (a) detailed cash receipts and disbursement
records, (b) general ledger listing and journal entries, (c) copies of invoices
for capital expenditures and nonrecurring items, (d) summaries of adjusting
journal entries, (e) copies of all paid bills and (f) such other supporting
documentation as the Class A Member may reasonably require.

                  Section 9.5.9 FAILURE TO APPROVE; BUDGET IMPASSE. In the event
Approval is not obtained with respect to any proposed Portfolio Business Plan,
Asset Business Plan, Annual Budget or Construction Budget prior to the intended
period for such plan or budget, then a "Budget Impasse" shall be deemed to
exist, until such time as such plan or budget is Approved. During any Budget
Impasse, the Operating Member shall operate and cause to be operated the
Company, each Subsidiary Company and each Property in accordance with the most
recently Approved Budget, except that the Operating Member may make or cause to
be made any expenditure not contemplated by the Approved Budget which is (a) a
Nondiscretionary Expense or (b) incurred pursuant to and in accordance with any
contract or agreement that was entered into prior to the commencement of such
Budget Impasse by or on behalf of the Company (to the


                                       58

<PAGE>


extent such contract or agreement was Approved pursuant to an Approved Budget or
following review by the Class A Member).

         Section 9.6 QUARTERLY PRESENTATIONS. Not less than once each calendar

hereunder at such locations as may from time to time be designated by the Board.

         Section 9.7 OTHER DISCLOSURES. The Operating Member shall keep the
Class A Member informed of any material fact, information, projection,
litigation, employee relations or other matter of which the Operating Member has
knowledge which could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on the
operations or financial position of any Property or the Company. The Operating
Member shall provide any and all material information relating to the Property
or the management or operation thereof as the Class A Member may reasonably
request from time to time.

         Section 9.8 CLASS A MEMBER AS TAX MATTERS PARTNER. The Class A Member
is designated the tax matters partner of the Company as provided in Section
6231(a)(7) of the Code and corresponding provisions of applicable state law.
This designation is effective only for the purpose of activities performed
pursuant to the Code, corresponding provisions of applicable state law and under
this Agreement. The Class A Member shall inform the Members of any material
decisions or actions taken by the Class A Member as the tax matters partner. The
Company may, subject to Approval, make an election pursuant to Section 754 of
the Code and the regulations thereunder (and a corresponding election under the
applicable sections of state and local law).

         Section 9.9 TAXATION AS A PARTNERSHIP. It is the intent of the Company
and its Members that the Company be treated as a partnership for income tax
purposes, and the terms of this Agreement shall be construed so as to accomplish
that goal, and the Members will use their best efforts to cause the Company to
be so treated.

         Section 9.10 COSTS PAYABLE FROM MASTER AND PROPERTY ACCOUNTS. With
respect to each Property, the Operating Member shall, to the extent of available
funds, pay directly from the applicable Property Account, all Approved costs
incurred in connection with the acquisition, development, redevelopment,

Pre-acquisition expenses associated with any Proposed Investment which the
Company is contemplating purchasing or developing pursuant to this Agreement

Agreement.

         Section 9.11 YEAR 2000 ISSUES. The Operating Member shall use all

              ARTICLE X - ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTIES

         Section 10.1 EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION. During the Investment Period, the 
Operating Member shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to locate and 
propose investment opportunities with respect to Lodging Facilities within 
the Target Market which satisfy the Investment Guidelines. If approved by the 
Board, any proposed acquisition (or any direct or indirect ownership interest 
therein) shall be acquired by the Company at a cost and in accordance with 
the provisions of this Agreement and the appropriate form of purchase and 
sale agreement.

         Section 10.2 INVESTMENT PERIOD. The Operating Member shall be 
obligated to use all commercially reasonable efforts to seek, identify and 
offer Lodging Facilities which satisfy the Investment Guidelines for 
potential acquisition to the Company for a period (the "Investment Period") 
commencing on the date hereof and expiring upon the earlier of: (a) the date 
on which the sum of Initial Capital contributed by each Member plus the 
amount of Committed Contributions then in effect equals or exceeds the sum of 
each Member's respective Capital Contributions Cap then in effect); (b) the 
date two (2) years after the date of this Agreement or (c) the date of the 
sale or assignment of fifty one percent (51%) or more of the Class A Member's 
interest in the Company to an institutional lender or investor described in 
Section 8.1.3(b) which is not otherwise an Entity described in Section 
8.1.3(a). The Investment Period unless terminated under (c) above shall 
automatically be extended in the event that the Class A Member gives a Cap 
Increase Notice pursuant to Section 3.7(a). In such event, the Investment 
Period shall be extended until the earlier of (i) the date on which the sum 
of Initial Capital contributed by each Member plus the amount of Committed 
Contributions then in effect equal the sum of each Member's respective 
Capital Contributions Cap then in effect (as increased) if the Operating 
Member elects (or is deemed to have elected) to increase the Capital 
Contribution Cap pursuant to Section 3.7; (ii) the date twelve (12) months 
after the date that the Operating Member notifies the Class A Member in 
writing that it disapproves an increase in the Capital Contribution Cap 
pursuant to Section 3.7(a); (iii) the date of the sale or assignment of fifty 
one percent (51%) or more of the Class A Member's interest in the Company to 
an institutional lender or investor described in Section 8.1.3(b) which is 
not otherwise an Entity described in Section 8.1.3(a); (iv) the date thirty 
six (36) months after the date of this Agreement or (v) the date the Class A 
Member gives the Operating Member notice that it is terminating the 
Investment Period. Notwithstanding the above, if as of the first anniversary 
of the date of this Agreement, the sum of Initial Capital contributed by each 
Member plus the amount of Committed Contributions then in effect equals less 
than $26,666,667, the Operating Member may elect within the thirty (30) day 
period following the first anniversary of this Agreement to notify the Class 
A Member that it is terminating the Investment Period, in which event the 
Investment Period shall terminate as of the date of that election. In 
addition, if the Operating Member has approved an increase in the Capital 
Contribution Caps of the Members pursuant to Section 3.7(a) and as of the 
first anniversary of the date of receipt by the Class A Member of the notice 
from the Operating Member acknowledging such approval, the sum of Expansion 
Capital contributed by the Members and the amount of Committed Contributions 
then in effect to advance capital that would be classified as Expansion 
Capital is less than forty percent (40%) of the Expansion

                                       60

<PAGE>


Capital approved by the Operating Member, the Operating Member may elect within
the thirty (30) day period following such first anniversary to notify the Class
A Member that it is terminating the Investment Period in which event the
Investment Period shall terminate as of the date of that election, provided such
termination date shall never be earlier than the date twenty four (24) months
after the date of this Agreement. Each Member's Proportionate Share of any
Committed Contributions outstanding as of the expiration of the Investment
Period shall be deemed contributed as of the date of the expiration of the
Investment Period and shall be contributed by each Member within ten (10) days
after the termination of the Investment Period.

         Section 10.3 PROPOSED ACQUISITIONS. In connection with the 
obligations of the Operating Member under this Article, the Operating Member 
shall furnish to the Class A Member, not less frequently than once per month, 
an updated "deal list," in such detail as the Class A Member may reasonably 
require, identifying all potential acquisitions and assessing the likelihood 
of completion thereof. Each "deal list" shall have three boxes next to each 
listed Lodging Facility enabling the Class A Member to indicate whether such 
Lodging Facility (i) should continue to be pursued as a potential acquisition 
by the Company; (ii) should not be pursued as a potential acquisition because 
the Class A Member does not anticipate approving the acquisition of such 
Lodging Facility pursuant to Section 10.3, or (iii) should not be pursued as 
a potential acquisition because the Class A Member is already contemplating 
pursuing the acquisition of such Lodging Facility without offering such 
opportunity to the Company. The Class A Member shall use diligent efforts to 
respond to each "deal list" within ten (10) days of receipt.

                  Section 10.3.1  PRELIMINARY APPROVAL PACKAGE.

                           (a) When the Operating Member identifies a Lodging
         Facility which the Operating Member intends to recommend for purchase
         consideration by the Company, the Operating Member shall prepare and
         submit to the Class A Member a package of information in such form as
         the Class A Member may from time to time reasonably approve, with
         respect to such Lodging Facility, which shall include, but not be
         limited to, the information set forth in EXHIBIT J-1 (collectively, the
         "Preliminary Information").

                           (b) To the extent that the Operating Member
         recommends that the Company execute a letter of intent, the Operating
         Member shall endeavor to cause the same to follow substantially a form
         of the letter of intent approved by the Class A Member incorporated
         into the Portfolio Business Plan upon such approval. Any letter of
         intent shall be in the name of the Company or an appropriate Subsidiary
         Company. Although not required as a part of the Preliminary
         Information, the Operating Member shall also deliver with the
         Preliminary Information such portions of the Final Approval Package as
         are then available to the Operating Member. The Operating Member may
         also seek Approval, prior to receiving conditional approval of the
         Preliminary Information, to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement on
         behalf of the Company or a Subsidiary Company for such proposed
         acquisition if the Operating Member reasonably determines that prompt
         execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement is necessary in order


                                       61
<PAGE>


         to obtain the right to acquire the proposed acquisition, PROVIDED,
         however, that any such Purchase and Sale Agreement entered into by the
         Operating Member shall explicitly state that, prior to the expiration
         of the due diligence period therein provided, the Company must
         affirmatively give notice to the seller that the necessary Approval of
         all diligence related materials has been granted as required by Section
         10.3.2(b), and that without such affirmative notice all deposits shall
         be returned to the Company and such Purchase and Sale Agreement shall
         thereupon terminate.

                           (c) Any conditional approval by the Class A Member of
         the Preliminary Information under this Section 10.3.1 shall mean that
         expenses incurred by the Operating Member on behalf of the Company or a
         Subsidiary Company (or by the Operating Member and reimbursed by the
         Company pursuant to Section 10.3.5) with respect to such proposed
         acquisition shall thereafter be deemed Acquisition/Redevelopment Costs
         pursuant to the Acquisition/Redevelopment Budget and shall no longer be
         expenses under the Pursuit Cost Budget.

                           (d) The Class A Member shall, promptly on receipt of
         the Preliminary Information with respect to any proposed acquisition
         review the same and, by notice to the Operating Member, either give
         conditional approval to the proposed acquisition by the Company or a
         Subsidiary Company and authorize the execution of the letter of intent
         by the Company, if applicable, or indicate that the Class A Member
         shall not approve the proposed acquisition by the Company. Any such
         conditional approval shall constitute authorization to the Operating
         Member (i) to incur on behalf of the Company additional expenses in
         connection with the proposed acquisition (subject, however, to the
         right of the Class A Member, in connection with giving any such
         conditional approval, to place more specific limitations on such
         expenditures), (ii) to proceed with due diligence with respect to such
         proposed acquisition and (iii) when and as the Operating Member deems
         appropriate, to negotiate a purchase and sale agreement on behalf of
         the Company with respect to such proposed acquisition as hereinafter
         further provided.

                           (e) The Class A Member shall endeavor to notify the
         Operating Member of its conditional approval or its disapproval with
         respect to any proposed acquisition within five (5) Business Days
         following the date upon which the Class A Member receives all the
         Preliminary Information with respect to such proposed acquisition. If
         the Class A Member fails to respond within such five (5) Business Day
         period, the Operating Member may issue a written notice (the "Approval
         Notice") to the Class A Member which notice shall state on the envelope
         and on the first page of the notice in capital letters the following
         "FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS WILL RESULT IN
         THE LOSS OF SIGNIFICANT RIGHTS". Such written notice shall also
         expressly refer to this Agreement and to this Section 10.3.1(e). If the
         Class A Member fails to respond within ten (10) days after receipt of
         the Approval Notice, the Class A Member shall be deemed to have given
         conditional approval of such proposed acquisition.

                  Section 10.3.2 DUE DILIGENCE AND REVIEW.

                           (a) In the event that, having received the
         Preliminary Information for a proposed acquisition, the Class A Member
         gives notice to the Operating Member of the Class A Member's
         conditional approval with respect to such proposed acquisition by the
         Company, such notice shall constitute authorization to the Operating
         Member to prepare, obtain and submit to the Class A Member, to the
         extent reasonably obtainable and consistent with the Class A Member's
         approval authorization, in such form as the Class A Member may from
         time to time approve, a package including a preliminary budget
         projection of income and expense for the period following substantial
         completion of a proposed acquisition until such proposed acquisition is
         expected to reach stabilization and for the first twelve (12) months
         following the date on which the proposed acquisition achieves
         stabilization, together with the information set forth in EXHIBIT J-2
         (the "Final Approval Package") within the limits of expenditures
         therefor authorized by the Class A Member.

                           (b) The Class A Member shall within 10 days after
         receipt of all material items required to be included in the Final
         Approval Package, give notice to the Operating Member whether the Class
         A Member desires to approve the acquisition by the Company of such
         proposed acquisition. If the Class A Member shall give notice to the
         Operating Member of its intention to give approval for the Company to
         proceed with acquisition of such proposed acquisition, the Company
         shall proceed to execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement
         (hereinafter defined) in accordance with Section 10.3.3 below. If the
         Class A Member has not given written notice of its approval or
         disapproval of the Final Approval Package within the aforementioned ten
         (10) day period, the Operating Member may give to the Class A Member a
         "Second Approval Notice" which Second Approval Notice shall state on
         the envelope and on the first page of the Second Approval Notice in
         capital letters the following: "FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS NOTICE
         WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS WILL RESULT IN A LOSS OF SIGNIFICANT RIGHTS". Such
         written notice shall also expressly refer to this Agreement and this
         Section 10.3.2 (b). If the Class A Member fails to respond within ten
         (10) days after receipt of the Second Approval Notice, the Class A
         Member shall be deemed to have disapproved such proposed acquisition.

                  Section 10.3.3 PURCHASE AND SALE.

                           (a) At such time, during the period commencing with
         the Class A Member's conditional approval of the proposed acquisition
         by the Company pursuant to Section 10.3.1, as the Operating Member
         shall reasonably deem appropriate, the Operating Member shall use
         commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a purchase and sale
         agreement in the name of the Company for such proposed acquisition, it
         being understood (i) that any such purchase and sale agreement (each a
         "Purchase and Sale Agreement") shall be substantially in a form
         approved by the Class A Member and incorporated by and upon such
         approval into the Portfolio Business Plan, (ii) that the final


                                       63

<PAGE>


         form of such Purchase and Sale Agreement, including the amount of any
         deposit, the purchase price and all other terms and conditions therein,
         must be reviewed by and be acceptable, in both form and substance, to
         the Class A Member and (iii) that, when requested by the Operating
         Member following the Class A Member's approval of the applicable Final
         Approval Package, the Company shall enter into such Purchase and Sale
         Agreement (or accept an assignment thereof as herein provided) and
         provide all necessary deposits. No Purchase and Sale Agreement shall
         provide the Seller, upon the default of the Company of its obligations
         thereunder, with a (i) a remedy of specific performance against the
         Company or (ii) have any liquidated damages in excess of the deposit
         made therein.

                           (b) Following the execution by the Company of any
         such Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Operating Member shall carry out
         all remaining required due diligence and documentation required
         hereunder in order to consummate the acquisition of such proposed
         acquisition by the Company in accordance with the terms of such
         Purchase and Sale Agreement and shall deliver copies of all inspection
         reports, site studies, environmental reports and the like received or
         commissioned by the Operating Member to be delivered to the Class A
         Member. The Operating Member shall expressly notify the Class A Member
         of any matter that becomes known to it which would have a material
         adverse impact on the value of such proposed acquisition. Prior to
         waiver or approval of the inspection/due diligence conditions set forth
         in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, however, the Operating Member shall
         further prepare and submit to the Class A Member for the Class A
         Member's review and approval a revised and updated
         Acquisition/Redevelopment Budget, the proposed Asset Business Plan for
         such proposed acquisition and a detailed status report on the due
         diligence review and investigations conducted by the Operating Member
         and legal counsel. Any determination as to the satisfaction of any
         closing condition or other requirement to closing under any Purchase
         and Sale Agreement shall be made by the Members; any Member shall at
         all times have the right to disapprove the purchase of any proposed
         acquisition and, as applicable, to forfeit any deposit thereunder,
         which forfeiture shall be at the Company's cost and expense, provided
         that in the event such forfeiture was solely at the request of the
         Class A Member, all money, including, without limitation, any deposit,
         paid with respect to such proposed acquisition that was paid by the
         Company with the Class A Member's approval or otherwise in accordance
         with the provisions hereof shall be reimbursed by the Class A Member to
         the Company unless the forfeiture of the deposit thereunder is solely
         the result of the Class A Member obtaining knowledge with respect to a
         proposed acquisition which was required to be included, but was not
         included, in the Preliminary Information or the Final Approval Package.
         In the event such forfeiture was solely at the request of the Operating
         Member, all money, including, without limitation, any deposit, paid
         with respect to such proposed acquisition that was paid by the Company
         with the Operating Member's approval or otherwise in accordance with
         the provisions hereof shall be reimbursed by the Operating Member to
         the Company.

                  Section 10.3.4 DISAPPROVAL; FAILURE TO PROCEED. In the event
that the Class A Member disapproves the purchase of such proposed acquisition
for any reason pursuant to this Section 10.3, the Operating Member (or an
Operating Member Related Party) may acquire the applicable proposed acquisition
without the participation of the Class A Member therein, but only subject to the
conditions set forth in Section 6.4.4.

                  Section 10.3.5 COSTS AND EXPENSES. Until the Class A Member
shall have given its conditional approval of acquisition by the Company of a
proposed acquisition in accordance with Section 10.3.1, the Company shall
reimburse or advance, any costs or expenses incurred by the Operating Member in
connection with the investigation or acquisition of any such proposed
acquisition to the extent consistent with the Pursuit Cost Budget (or to the
extent otherwise Approved), PROVIDED that all such costs and expenses to be
reimbursed or advanced shall be or have been incurred, or any action giving rise
to such obligation of indemnification occurs, prior to the first date upon which
the Operating Member receives notice that the Class A Member has failed to
Approve the purchase of the proposed acquisition and are not otherwise the
subject of any limitation on permitted expenditures set forth in any notice from
the Class A Member with respect to a proposed acquisition. From and after the
receipt by the Operating Member of a conditional approval notice pursuant to
Section 10.3.1, such costs and expenses shall no longer be deemed Pursuit Costs
but shall be deemed Acquisition/Redevelopment Costs, and the Company shall be
obligated to pay for out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred and paid in
connection with the proposed acquisition or development of such proposed
acquisition; provided such reimbursable costs and expenses are reasonable in
amount and do not exceed the sums budgeted therefor under the then current
Approved Acquisition/Redevelopment Budget.

         Section 12.3 INTERPRETATION. This Agreement shall be governed by and 
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard 
to the principles of conflicts of law. The parties agree that any dispute 
arising in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved in the Chancery 
Court in the State of Delaware, and each party hereby submits to the 
jurisdiction of that court. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY 
JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN ANY OF THE PARTIES TO THIS 
AGREEMENT ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS OF THE 
PARTIES HEREUNDER. The table of contents and titles of the Articles and 
Sections in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be 
considered in construing this Agreement. Pronouns used with reference to the 
Members shall be construed to refer to the feminine, neuter, singular and 
plural as the identity of the individual or entity referred to may require. 
This Agreement, together with the documents and agreements being executed on 
the date hereof, constitutes the entire agreement among the Members and the 
Operating Member and supersedes any prior written or oral agreements with 
respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No provision of this 
Agreement (including, without limitation, any obligation of any Member to 
make Contributions) shall be interpreted as bestowing any rights whatsoever 
upon any third party. A cross-reference to another section shall be deemed to 
be to such section of this Agreement, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

         Section 12.4 COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in 
multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.

         Section 12.5 ERISA, UBTI AND REIT MATTERS.

                  Section 12.5.1 ERISA. The Operating Member acknowledges that
it has been advised that the Class A Member desires the Company to conduct its
business in such manner as to enable the Company to qualify as a "real estate
operating company," under Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101 and
the Members agree that each Member shall be entitled to exercise any vote,
consent, election, or other right under this Agreement with a view to causing
the Company to so conduct its business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 3.1 or otherwise in this Agreement, the Class A Member
shall have the right to require, prior to making its initial Contribution, an
opinion of counsel to the Company in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
the Class A Member that the Company is a "real estate operating company" under
Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101. The "annual valuation period"
of the Company is hereby specified as the 90-day period commencing on each
December 31 following the "initial valuation date," as such terms are defined in
said regulation. The Class A Member shall be entitled to request and, if such a
request is made, receive an opinion of counsel to the Company in form and
substance and from counsel all reasonably acceptable to the Class A Member as to
the then current status of the Company as being or not being a "real estate
operating company" under said regulation, provided that the Class A Member shall
not make more than one such request with respect to each annual valuation
period.

                  Section 12.5.2 UBTI MATTERS. The Operating Member acknowledges
that it has been advised that certain indirect investors in the Class A Member
are Qualified Organizations


                                       68

<PAGE>


which are not generally required to pay federal income tax on interest, certain
real property rents and certain other types of income and agrees that the
business and affairs of the Company will be managed with a view to minimizing
the amount of income of the Company that will constitute unrelated business
taxable income ("UBTI") to a Qualified Organization under Section 511 ET SEQ. of
the Code. The Operating Member agrees that the Class A Member shall be entitled
to exercise any consent, election or other right under this Agreement with a
view to avoiding any UBTI to the Class A Member or any of its members and
without regard to whether conducting the business of the Company in such manner
will maximize either pre-tax or after-tax profit of the Company to a Member who
is not such a Qualified Organization. Without the prior written consent of the
Class A Member which specifically refers to the requirement of a consent under
this Section 12.5.2, the Company shall not (i) obtain financing from any seller
to the Company of any property or any individual or entity who bears a
relationship described in Code Sections 267(b) or 707(b) to any such seller,
(ii) lease any property to any seller or to any individual or entity who bears a
relationship described in Code Sections 267(b) or 707(b) to any such seller,
(iii) obtain any financing where the amount of the indebtedness or any other
amount payable with respect to the financing, or the time for making any
payment, is dependent upon any revenue, income or profits derived from any
property, (iv) incur any indebtedness which would otherwise be treated as
"acquisition indebtedness" under Code Section 514(c), (v) incur any indebtedness
which would constitute "partner nonrecourse debt" as defined in Treasury
Regulations ss.1.704-2(b)(4), (vi) enter into any lease which provides for
contingent rental payments unless based upon the tenant's gross receipts, (vii)
enter into any lease or other arrangement pursuant to which it receives rents
from personal property or payment for the performance of services which would
constitute UBTI, (viii) invest or hold, directly or through one or more
entities, any interest in any partnership (or any entity treated as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes) if at any time it does not comply
with Code Section 514(c)(9)(E) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder or (ix)
otherwise engage in any transactions which would result in UBTI for the Class A
Member or any of the holders of direct or indirect equity interests in the Class
A Member.

                  Section 12.5.3 REIT MATTERS.

                           (a) The Members agree that the business and affairs
of the Company will be managed in a manner that will neither jeopardize the REIT
status of any Member or direct or indirect owner of any Member, nor result in
the imposition of any taxes or penalties under the REIT Tax Provisions on any
such Person. Any provision of this Agreement that might otherwise jeopardize a
Member's REIT status under the Code (or the REIT status of a direct or indirect
owner of a Member) or cause the imposition of such tax or penalty (other than
the provisions of this Section 12.5.3 and other Sections of this Agreement
expressly referenced by the provisions of this Section 12.5.3) shall be (i) void
and of no effect, or (ii) reformed, as necessary, to avoid such Person's loss of
REIT status or the imposition of such tax or penalty.

                           (b) Without limiting the foregoing paragraph (a), the
Members agree as follows:


                                       69

<PAGE>


                                    (i)     For each taxable year, the Company
shall be managed so that the gross income of the Company allocable to the
Operating Member (for purposes of the income tests set forth in Section
856(c)(2) and (3) of the Code, and excluding gross income from "prohibited
transactions" as defined in Section 857(b)(6)(B)) (such allocation of gross
income, the "REIT Gross Income") that fails to qualify as one of the following
shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Operating Member's aggregate
REIT Gross Income: (a) "rents from real property" within the meaning of Section
856(d) of the Code (determined with respect to the Company as if the Company
were a REIT for federal income tax purposes, subject to the modifications set
forth below), (b) interest on obligations secured by mortgages on real property
or on interests in real property, (c) gain from the sale or other disposition of
real property (including interests in real property and interests in mortgages
on real property) which is not described in Section 1221(1) of the Code, (d)
dividends or other distributions on, and gain from the sale or other disposition
of transferable shares in qualifying REITs, or (e) amounts described in Sections
856(c)(3)(E) through 856(c)(3)(I) of the Code.

                                    (ii)    For each taxable year, the Company
shall be managed so that the Operating Member's REIT Gross Income that fails to
qualify as one of the following shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the
Operating Member's aggregate REIT Gross Income: (a) the items of income
described in paragraph (i) hereof (other than those described in Section
856(c)(3)(I) of the Code), (b) gain realized from the sale or other disposition
of stock or securities which are not property described in Section 1221(1) of
the Code, (c) interest, (d) dividends, or (e) income derived from payments to
the Company on interest rate swap or cap agreements, options, futures contracts,
forward rate agreement or other similar financial instruments entered into to
reduce the interest rate risks with respect to any indebtedness incurred or to
be incurred to acquire or carry real estate assets, or gain from the sale or
other disposition of such an investment.

                                    (iii)   As of the end of the last day of
each quarter of each of the Company's taxable years, not more than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the total assets of the Company allocable (for purposes of the
seventy-five percent (75%) asset test set forth in Section 856(c)(4) of the
Code) to the Operating Member will fail to qualify as one of the following: (a)
real estate assets within the meaning of Section 856(c)(5) of the Code, (b) cash
and cash items (including receivables which arise in the ordinary course of the
Company's operations, but not including receivables purchased from another
person), or (c) Government securities.

                                    (iv)    The Company will not own, directly
or indirectly, more than ten percent (10%) of the voting securities (as defined
for purposes of Section 856(c)(4)(B) of the Code) of any issuer that is treated
as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

                                    (v)     The Company will not hold, directly
or indirectly, any (a) stock in trade or other property of a kind which would
properly be includable in inventory at hand at the close of a taxable year or
(b) property held primarily for sale to customers in the


                                       70

<PAGE>


ordinary course of a trade or business, unless the disposition of such property
is expected to result in the recognition of no more than DE MINIMIS gains by the
Company.

                                    (vi)    The Company will not hold, directly
or indirectly (as determined for purposes of Section 860E of the Code) any REMIC
residual interests.

                                    (vii)   The activities of the Company will
be conducted in accordance with the Agreement, and the Company will not be
properly classifiable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. The
Company shall not elect to be taxed as a corporation for federal income tax
purposes or otherwise take or omit to take any action that reasonably could be
expected to cause the Company to be a corporation, or to be treated as an
association taxable as a corporation, for federal income tax purposes.

                                    (viii)  The Company will, as and when
requested, make available to the Operating Member a list of all entities that
the Company (and any entity that is treated as a partnership or disregarded
entity for federal tax purposes in which the Company holds, or is treated as
holding, an interest) uses to provide services to tenants or with respect to the
properties in which the Company owns a direct or indirect interest the Company
is treating as an "independent contractor" (within the meaning of Section
856(d)(3) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.856-4(b)(5)(iii)) for
purposes of determining compliance with the covenants set forth in clauses (i)
and (ii) above. At least ten (10) days prior to entering into any contract or
other arrangement with a party whose status as an independent contractor with
respect to the Operating Member could affect the characterization of amounts
received or accrued, directly or indirectly, by the Company as "rents from real
property" when allocated to the Operating Member, the Company shall provide the
Operating Member with written notice of the identity of such party. The Company
shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into any contract or other arrangement
that involves or would require treating as an "independent contractor" for these
purposes any person identified by the Operating Member in a written notice to
the Company; provided that any such restriction shall be solely for the purpose
of maintaining the REIT status of the general partner of the Operating Member.
If such contracts or other arrangements are already in place at the time that
written notice is provided by the Operating Member, then the Company shall take
all commercially reasonable steps to terminate such contracts or other
arrangements.

                                    (ix)    The Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to make distributions to its Partners in accordance with
Article V, in amounts large enough such that the Operating Member will receive
an amount sufficient to permit the Operating Member (assuming hypothetically
that it were a REIT and that its interests in the Company constituted its only
asset) to satisfy the distribution requirements for REIT status and to avoid the
imposition of any taxes under Section 857 or 4981 of the Code with respect to
the taxable year of the Company to which the Operating Member's request relates.

                                    (x)     Without the prior written consent
of the Operating Member, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, acquire
securities issued by, or otherwise enter into any arrangement which will cause
the Company directly or indirectly to


                                       71

<PAGE>


derive income from any person identified by the Operating Member on a written
notice provided to the Company prior to the acquisition of such securities or
the entering into of such arrangement; provided that any such restriction shall
be solely for the purpose of maintaining the REIT status of the general partner
of the Operating Member.

                           (c)      For purposes of the covenants in this
Section 12.5.3, the assets and gross income of the Company will be determined as
if the Company were a REIT. Thus, the Company will be deemed to own its
proportionate share (determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations 
ss. 1.856-8(g)) of each of the assets of each entity that is treated as a
partnership or disregarded entity for federal tax purposes in which the Company
holds, or is treated as holding, an interest and will be deemed to derive
directly the income of such entities attributable to such share. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the determination of compliance with these covenants shall be
made by reference to the general partner of the Operating Member as the REIT,
and the Company will not be treated as a REIT (i) for purposes of determining
whether a subsidiary of the Company is a "qualified REIT subsidiary" within the
meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code, (ii) for purposes of determining whether
amounts received from a tenant of the Company would be "related party rent" as
described in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code (except that no tenant shall be
considered a "related party tenant" for such purposes if the Company does not
own, directly or indirectly, any interest in that tenant unless the Operating
Member has notified the Company in writing that such tenant would be considered
to be a "related party tenant" as to the Operating Member or the REIT), and
(iii) for purposes of determining whether an entity or person that provides
services to tenants of the Company meets the definition of an "independent
contractor," as set forth in Section 856(d)(3) of the Code and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.856-4(b)(5)(iii).

                           (d) So long as the provisions of this Section 12.5.3
remain in effect, the Company shall deliver to the Operating Member, at such
times as may be requested by the Operating Member upon reasonable notice to the
Company, a certificate, or certificates signed by an authorized person to the
effect that the Company has complied with the covenants set forth in this
Section 12.5.3 through the date of such certificate or certificates and that
such person anticipates that the Company will continue to comply with such
covenants. Such certificate or certificates also will contain such other
certifications, in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Operating
Member, as the Operating Member shall reasonably request, that relate to matters
involving the Company that reasonably could be anticipated to bear upon the
general partner of the Operating Member's status as a REIT. In addition, the
Company shall cooperate (including, without limitation, by providing information
and documents relating to the income and assets of the Company) with the
Operating Member, even if the Operating Member at such time no longer holds an
interest in the Company, in addressing issues raised by any taxing authority in
any audit or similar proceeding relating to the Operating Member or any of its
affiliates that relate to or arise out of the Operating Member's investment in
the Company.

                           (e) This Section 12.5.3 is for the exclusive benefit
of the Operating Member and its general partner, their direct and indirect
owners and subsidiaries, and any


                                       72

<PAGE>


successor or assign of all or substantially all of the assets of the Operating
Member or its general partner (in which case references herein to the Operating
Member or its general partner shall be treated as references to such successors
or assignees), provided that such succession or assignment is otherwise
permitted by the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 12.5.3
may be waived by the Operating Member in its sole discretion.

                           (f) For purposes of this Section 12.5.3 and
certifications made by the Company hereunder, the Company will not treat as
"rent from real property" any of the following:

                                    (i)     rent attributable to personal
property, except where the personal property is leased under, or in connection
with, the rental of real property where the average of the adjusted bases of the
personal property at the beginning and at the end of the taxable year does not
exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the average of the aggregate adjusted bases of
the real property and the personal property leased under such lease at the
beginning and at the end of such taxable year within the meaning of Section
856(d)(1) of the Code;

                                    (ii)    any rent received or accrued,
directly or indirectly, where the determination of the amount of rent depends on
the income or profits of any person from the property, except where rent is
based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales within the
meaning of Section 856(d)(2)(A) of the Code; and

                                    (iii)   any rent (or any other consideration
under a lease) received or accrued, directly or indirectly, from any person in
which the Operating Member or its general partner owns, directly or indirectly,
(a) in the case of a corporation, ten percent (10%) or more of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote, or ten percent
(10%) or more of the total number of shares of all classes of stock, or (b) in
the case of an entity other than a corporation, an interest of ten percent (10%)
or more in the assets or net profits of such entity. For purposes of this
paragraph, ownership will be determined by taking into account the constructive
ownership rules of Section 318(a) of the Code (as modified by Section 856(d)(5)
of the Code).

                           (g) For purposes of this Section 12.5.3 and
certifications made by the Company hereunder, the Company will not treat as
"interest" any interest received or accrued, directly or indirectly, where the
determination of the amount of interest depends on the income or profits of any
person, except where interest is based on a fixed percentage or percentages of
receipts or sales within the meaning of Section 856(f)(1)(A) of the Code.

                           (h) The foregoing provisions of this Section 12.5.3
shall be subject to the following restrictions:

                                    (i)     Any reformations to this Agreement,
or voiding of its provisions, under paragraph (a) above shall be the minimum
changes necessary to accomplish


                                       73

<PAGE>


the intent of this Section 12.5.3. If the provisions of this Agreement are
reformed or voided, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to provide
replacement provisions that have no material adverse effect on the interest of
the Class A Member in the Company, and replicate, as closely as possible in
conformance with this Section 12.5.3, the intended after-tax economic
consequences to the parties, including without limitation the compliance of the
terms of this Agreement with the present requirements of Sections 4.10 and 4.12.

                                    (ii)    The Company shall in no event make
distributions to the Members in an order and priority less favorable to the
Class A Member than the order and priority set forth in Sections 5.2 through
5.4. Further, the Company shall be obliged to make distributions in the amounts
contemplated by Section 12.5.3(b)(ix) only upon the written request of the
Operating Member, accompanied by a certificate signed by an officer of BLC as
general partner of the Operating Member stating that BLC and the Operating
Member have made all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain sufficient funds
from other sources. The Company shall not be required to borrow funds to fulfill
any obligation to make distributions to the Operating Member without the prior
written consent of all Members.

                                    (iii)   So long as the Class A Member
complies with the provisions of Section 12.5.4, this Section 12.5.3 shall not
restrict or impair the Class A Member's rights to cause the sale of a Target
Asset under Section 8.2, nor shall this Section 12.5.3 restrict or impair the
Class A Member's rights under Section 8.4.

                  Section 12.5.4 DEALER PROPERTY.

         In the event that either Member exercises its right under Section 8.2
to require the sale of any of the Company's properties within four years of the
date on which the Company acquired such property or first put the property into
service, the Initiating Member shall provide a certification to the Responding
Member in substantially the form attached as EXHIBIT N hereto.

                  Section 12.5.5 OBLIGATION OF OPERATING MEMBER TO AVOID
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 12.5.3.

         The Operating Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
conduct its own affairs, and cause any Operating Member Related Party to conduct
its own affairs, so that the provisions of 12.5.3(a) will not come into effect.

         Section 12.6 NO PARTITION. Except as set forth in Section 8.2, no 
Member nor any Legal Successor of a Member shall have the right to partition 
the Company or any Property or any part thereof or interest therein, or to 
file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to partition 
the Company or any Property or any part thereof or interest therein. Each 
Member, for such Member and such Member's Legal Successor, hereby waives any 
such rights. The Members intend that, during the term of this Agreement, the 
rights of the Members and their

                                       74

<PAGE>


successors in interest, as among themselves, shall be governed solely by the
terms of this Agreement and by the Act.

         Section 12.7 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any Member seeks to enforce such 
Member's rights under this Agreement by legal proceedings or otherwise the 
non-prevailing party shall be responsible for all costs and expenses in 
connection therewith, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys' 
fees and witness fees.

         Section 12.8 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is 
determined to be unenforceable for any reason, it shall be adjusted rather 
than voided, if possible, to achieve the intent of the parties. In any event, 
all other provisions shall be deemed valid and enforceable to the greatest 
possible extent.

         Section 12.9 BINDING ON SUCCESSORS. Subject to the provisions of 
Article VIII, the rights and obligations of the Members under this Agreement 
shall inure to the benefit of and bind their respective heirs, successors and 
assigns.

         Section 12.10 CONFIDENTIALITY. Both parties hereto agrees to 
maintain the confidentiality of the terms and conditions of this Agreement 
and to maintain the confidentiality of (a) any information provided by one 
party to the other, and (b) all information contained in any facility books, 
records, computer discs and similar materials containing facility 
information, invoices and other documents received or maintained by the 
Company pursuant to this Agreement, other than information that is available 
from public sources. No public announcement of any development with respect 
to the Company shall be made without the consent of each of the Members. 
Either party may, however, disclose any of such information to its agents, 
directors, officers, employees, advisors, attorneys, Affiliates or 
representatives who require such information for the purpose of performing or 
assisting in the performance of its obligations or services hereunder, and to 
investors or lenders or proposed investors or lenders, provided that in all 
such cases such parties shall be informed of the confidential nature of such 
information. Either party hereto may also disclose any such information (x) 
to the extent required by law or court order provided that such party shall 
have first, to the extent reasonably practicable, advised the other of the 
requirement to disclose such information and shall have afforded the other an 
opportunity to dispute such requirement and seek relief therefrom by legal 
process, (y) in connection with any suit, action, arbitration or other 
proceedings between the parties hereto or their respective Related Parties, 
or (z) to the extent required in connection with the preparation or filing of 
any tax returns or other filings required by any applicable law.

         Section 12.11 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EACH MEMBER. As an 
inducement to each Member to enter into this Agreement, in addition to the 
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the parties make 
the additional representations and warranties contained in EXHIBIT K attached 
hereto and made a part hereof.

         Section 12.12 BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The parties hereto represent 
and warrant to each other that, other than Chadwick, Saylor (the "Broker"),

connection with this Agreement and the transaction contemplated herein 
arising from such Member's actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in

a fee to the Broker equal to [*] percent [*] of the amount of such 
Contribution (or reimburse the Operating Member for any fees previously 
advanced by the Operating Member to the Broker). In no event shall the 
Company be responsible for payment or reimbursement of fees in excess of 
[*] percent [*] of the amount of such Contribution.

         Section 12.13 TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with 
respect to all time or notice deadlines set forth herein, however, this 
provision shall not affect the rights of any defaulting party hereunder to 
cure such default within the time periods (if any) explicitly set forth

                           CALCULATION OF TOTAL RETURN

      The calculation of Total Return with respect to the Class A Member (with
respect to this EXHIBIT B, the Class A Member shall include any permitted
successor or assign of the Class A Member's membership interest under this
Agreement shall be made as of a given time as follows:

      (a)   Determine the date and amount of all Contributions made by the Class
            A Member to the Company; and

      (b)   Determine the date and amount of all distributions paid to the Class
            A Member pursuant to Article V.

      The Class A Member's Total Return shall equal the discount rate (the
"Applicable Rate") which causes (i) the present value of the contributions made
by the Class A Member under (a) above to equal (ii) the present value of the
distributions paid to the Class A Member under (b) above. The present value of
(a) and (b) shall each be determined as of the date of the first Contribution
made by the Class A Member to the Company and discounting such contributions or
distributions, as the case may be, on a monthly convention basis.

      In no event shall any funds advanced by the Class A Member as a Default
Loan or any funds received by the Class A Member in payment thereof be included
in the calculation of Total Return.

      Under the terms of Section 3.9 of the LLC Agreement, the Class A Member
may elect to provide Credit Enhancement in connection with certain Authorized
Financing of the Company. For the purpose of calculating the Total Return of the
Class A Member under this Agreement, if the Class A Member (or any affiliate of
the Class A Member) provides such Credit Enhancement, then all out of pocket
costs and expenses incurred by the Class A Member (or affiliate of the Class A
Member) in connection with such Credit Enhancement (including any legal expenses
incurred in connection therewith and any costs of renewal) shall be deemed a
Contribution made by the Class A Member to the Company on the date such cost or
costs are incurred and if the Credit Enhancement or any portion thereof shall be
drawn or applied (e.g. funds are paid by the Class A Member under a guaranty or
there is a draw under a letter of credit given by or for the benefit of the
Class A Member), the amount of any such payment or draw or amount applied shall
be deemed an additional Contribution made by the Class A Member to the Company
on the date that the Credit Enhancement was first issued or made.

      For purposes of calculating Total Return with respect to the Class A
Member, all legal expenses paid by the Class A Member in connection with the
formation of the Company or in connection with a default of the Operating
Member's obligations under this Agreement or the 


                                      B-1

default of the Operating Member or any Operating Member Related Party under any
Approved Related Party Agreement shall be deemed Contributions.

      NOW THEREFORE, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, [Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., with an
address of Guildhall Building 45 West Prospect Avenue, Suite 1500, Cleveland,
Ohio 44115-1027/AEW Partners III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership with an
address of c/o AEW Capital Management, L.P., 225 Franklin Street, Boston, MA
02110] (the "Borrower"), promise(s) to pay to the order of [Class A
Member/Operating Member] (together with any successor holder or holders of this
Note, the "Lender") at its office at [c/o AEW Capital Management, L.P., 225
Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110/ Guildhall Building, 45 West
Prospect Avenue, Suite 1500, Cleveland, Ohio 44115-1027] or such other place as
Lender may designate, the principal sum of ________________________ Dollars
($________), or so much thereof as shall be advanced hereunder, together with
interest thereon, as hereinafter set forth.

      Interest on the principal balance of this Note from time to time
outstanding shall accrue from the date hereof at an annual rate which shall
equal the "Interest Rate" (defined below). Subject to Borrower's right to defer
payments of interest as provided below, interest shall be payable on the unpaid
principal balance from time to time outstanding, on a monthly basis in arrears
on the first day of each month (the "Interest Payment Date") beginning with the
first day of _______________. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three
hundred


                                      D-1

and sixty (360)-day year and shall be paid for the actual number of days on
which principal is outstanding.

      "Interest Rate" means the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15%) per annum,
compounded monthly, or (ii) the highest lawful rate per annum, compounded
monthly.

      Borrower may defer payments of interest to the extent that a payment of
interest due on an Interest Payment Date exceeds the amount of distributions to
Borrower from the Company during the calendar month immediately preceding said
Interest Payment Date (such excess, known hereinafter as the "Deferred
Interest"). Deferred Interest shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate,
compounded monthly (such Deferred Interest together with the interest thereon
shall be referred to as "Interest Accruals").

      To the extent that distributions to Borrower from the Company, including
any return of capital to Borrower by the Company, for any month prior to an
Interest Payment Date exceed the amount due on said Interest Payment Date, then
Borrower shall pay such excess to Lender to the extent of and to reduce: first,
any late charges or other costs or expenses due hereunder, second, Interest
Accruals then outstanding, third, interest then due, and fourth, the outstanding
principal balance of this Note.

      The entire outstanding principal balance of this Note, together with any
interest, Interest Accruals and other charges as may be due hereunder, shall be
paid on the earlier of: (i)______________,_____, (ii) the dissolution of the
Company, (iii) the sale of all of the Properties owned by the Company, (iv) the
sale of all or substantially all of the Borrower's membership interest in the
Company or (v) the occurrence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined)
hereunder (the earlier of such dates, the "Maturity Date").

      In the event that any payment required hereunder is not paid within five
(5) days after the date it is due (such five day period, the "Grace Period;"
which failure to pay within the Grace Period shall constitute an "Event of
Default" hereunder), Lender shall have the right, in addition to any other
rights hereunder, upon written demand to Borrower, to collect a late charge as
compensation for increased costs of administering such late payment. Such late
charge shall be in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the amount of any
payment amount remaining unpaid after the expiration of the Grace Period, which
sum Borrower agrees to pay upon demand; provided, however, that said late charge
shall not be Lender's sole remedy for Borrower's default hereunder.

      In the event that any payment due hereunder is not paid prior to the
expiration of the Grace Period, Lender at its option may declare immediately due
and payable the entire outstanding balance of principal and interest, together
with all other charges to which Lender may be entitled.

                                      D-2

<PAGE>

      The outstanding principal amount due hereunder may be prepaid in whole or
in part, together with any interest or Interest Accruals then outstanding,
without penalty or premium, upon five (5) days prior written notice to Lender

      Any notice required or permitted to be delivered hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to be delivered on the earlier of (i) the date
received, or (ii) the date of delivery, refusal, or non-delivery indicated on
the return receipt, if deposited in a United States Postal Service depository,
postage prepaid, sent registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
addressed to the party to receive the same at the address of such party set
forth at the beginning of this Note, or at such other address as may be
designated in a notice delivered or mailed as herein provided.

      Borrower agrees to pay all charges (including reasonable attorney's fees)
of Lender in connection with the collection and/or enforcement of this Note or
in protecting or preserving the security for this Note, whether or not suit is
brought against Borrower.

      The failure of Lender at any time to exercise any option or right
hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of Lender's right to exercise such
option or right at any other time.

      Borrower and all endorsers and guarantors of this Note hereby jointly and
severally waive presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other suretyship
defenses generally and agree that (i) any renewal, extension or postponement of
the time of payment or any other indulgence, or (ii) any substitution, exchange
or release of collateral or the addition or release of any person or entity
primarily or secondarily liable, may be effected without notice to Borrower or
any endorser or guarantor of Borrower's obligations, and without releasing
Borrower or such endorser or guarantor from any liability hereunder.

      This Note shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with
the laws of The State of Delaware. If any provision of this Note is held to be
invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other
provisions of this Note shall remain in full force and effect. If the payment of
any interest due hereunder would subject Lender to any penalty under applicable
law, then the payments due hereunder shall be automatically reduced to what they
would be at the highest rate authorized under applicable law.

Company, including any return of capital to Borrower upon liquidation of the
Company and is otherwise without recourse to Borrower or any member or partner
therein.

                                    EXHIBIT F

                             INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

      A. INSURANCE. The Class A Member shall arrange, in consultation with the
Operating Member, for all property and liability insurance with respect to each
Property naming the Company and any Subsidiary Company, as applicable, as
insured and having Approved coverages consistent with comparable facilities in
the area. The Company's Insurance Limits Requirements are set forth on EXHIBIT
F-1, which Exhibit may be amended or replaced from time to time as Approved.
Insurers must have an A.M. Best's rating of A-VII or higher. The cost of
premiums for such insurance shall be allocated as an operating expense of each
Property payable from the applicable Property Account or otherwise payable by
the Company if not paid by a tenant under a Lease. At the Class A Member's
election, any such insurance may be blanketed with other insurance carried by
the Company (so long as the required coverages are not diminished), in which
case a pro rata share of the premiums, as reasonably determined by the Class A
Member, shall be chargeable to the applicable Property or Properties as an
operating expense. All such insurance maintained by the Company shall be primary
and not contributing with respect to the coverages maintained pursuant to this
Agreement. The Class A Member shall furnish the Operating Member with evidence
of the coverages and limits then in effect, upon request.

      B. INSURANCE CLAIMS. Subject to the provisions of the Leases, the Company
or the Company's insurer shall have the right, at its option (chargeable as an
operating expense of the applicable Property), to conduct the defense of any
claim, demand or suit arising out of the ownership, operation, development or
management of the Properties. The foregoing is not intended to affect the
general requirements of this Agreement with respect to the operation,
maintenance and management of the Properties or with respect to any indemnities
by either party hereunder. The Operating Member and the Class A Member shall aid
and cooperate in every reasonable way with respect to such insurance and any
claim or loss thereunder. The Operating Member shall notify the Class A Member
promptly upon receiving notice of any casualty, loss, injury, claim or
threatened claim, condition or other event which the Operating Member believes
may result in a claim under any insurance policy maintained hereunder.

      C. OPERATING MEMBER'S INSURANCE. Except as expressly set forth herein or
in an Approved Annual Business Plan or Approved Annual Budget, the Operating
Member shall maintain at its own expense, the following minimum insurance
coverages and limits:

            (i) Worker's compensation as required by law;

            (ii) Employer's Liability in jurisdictions where employer's
      liability insurance is required by law -- $100,000 each accident; $100,000
      disease -- each employee; $500,000 disease -- policy limit (or, if higher,
      such minimum limits as may be required to satisfy umbrella liability
      insurance requirements);


                                      F-1

<PAGE>

            (iii) Commercial General Liability Insurance: bodily injury and
      property damage with limits of at least $1,000,000 each occurrence and
      $2,000,000 in the aggregate; and Excess Liability Coverage of at least
      $5,000,000;

            (iv) Automobile Liability -- As to any vehicle owned, non-owned or
      hired by the Operating Member, $1,000,000 covering losses due to the
      insured's liability for bodily injury to others or to the property or
      others; as to Medical Expenses -- $5,000 per person per accident; and

            (v) Comprehensive crime insurance (including Employee Dishonesty)
      with limits and terms reasonably acceptable to the Class A Member or a
      fidelity bond reasonably acceptable to the Class A Member.

      The premium for all insurance required to be maintained by the Operating
Member under this Paragraph shall be at the Operating Member's own expense. The
minimum A.M. Best's rating of each insurer shall be A-/VII. The Operating Member
shall furnish the Class A Member with certificates evidencing the aforesaid
coverages, which shall include provisions to the effect that the Class A Member
shall be given at least 30 days' prior written notice of cancellation of or any
material change in any of the aforesaid policies. The Class A Member shall be
named as an additional insured with respect to the Operating Member's excess
liability policies and as a loss payee with respect to the coverage described in
clause (v).

      D. PAYMENTS AND CERTIFICATES. Unless otherwise directed by the Class A
Member, Operating Member shall pay or cause to be paid as they become due all
premiums for the insurance required hereunder. Not later than 30 days if
commercially available (but in no event fewer than 10 days) prior to the
expiration of each such policy, the Class A Member shall deliver to the
Operating Member a certificate of insurance and copies of the insurance policies
evidencing the insurance required to be provided for a period of not less than
one year and evidence of payment (upon payment by the Operating Member for and
on behalf of the Company); said certificates shall obligate the insurer to give
the Operating Member not less than 30 days prior written notice of the
cancellation or material amendment of any insurance required to be carried under
this Agreement. The Operating Member shall pay or cause to be paid insurance
premiums as to each Property out of the applicable Property Account, to the
extent funds are available therefor, provided that the Operating Member shall
not refrain from paying any such insurance premium or causing the same to be
paid when due, nor otherwise permit insurance coverage to lapse as to any
Property to be insured hereunder, unless specifically authorized by the Approved
Asset Business Plan or as otherwise Approved.

      E. COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES. The Operating Member shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Company to comply with: (i) all of the
provisions of each such insurance policy affecting each Property and (ii) all of
the requirements of the insurers thereunder applicable to the Company or, in the
case of each such Property, to improvements 


                                      F-2

<PAGE>


located on each such Property or to the use, manner of use, occupancy,
possession, operation, maintenance, alteration, repair or restoration of any of
the improvements located on each such Property. The Operating Member, upon its
knowledge of same, shall notify the Class A Member of any condition which would
cause said Property to be in violation of any insurance requirements with
respect to said Property. The foregoing shall not be construed to require the
Company to make any structural changes or improvements to any Property or to
expend any funds not provided in the Approved Budgets.

      F. CONTRACTORS' AND SUBCONTRACTORS' INSURANCE. The Operating Member shall
cause all material service contracts and all construction contracts with respect
to the Properties (including any Related Party Agreements) to require the
contracting party thereunder to maintain insurance coverage, at such party's
expense, with such limits and complying in all other respects with the relevant
insurance requirements set forth in Exhibit F-2 and the Lease for such Property.
The Operating Member shall obtain and keep on file a certificate of insurance
for each service contract and major subcontract which shows that each such party
is so insured. The Operating Member shall not waive or permit to be waived any
such requirements without the Class A Member's prior written consent. The
Operating Member shall obtain from each party to a service contract
indemnification and hold harmless provisions in favor of the Company and each of
the Members in accordance with industry standards.

      G. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. The Members agree that with respect to any
hazard, liability, casualty or other loss or claim which is covered by insurance
then carried (or required to be carried pursuant to the provisions herein) by
either Member, (a) the party carrying such insurance and suffering such loss
releases the other party of and from any and all claims with respect to such
loss; and (b) their respective insurance companies shall have no right of
subrogation against the other party or their respective agents, contractors,
employees, licensees or invitees on account thereof.

fee shall be payable upon the acquisition of the Lodging Facility by Company. 
If the Company acquires an interest in an Entity which owns or acquires a 
Lodging Facility, the acquisition fee shall be prorated based on the 
Company's interest in the Entity. The Operating Member shall also be entitled 
to an acquisition fee equal to [*] percent [*] of the amount of Capital 
Expenditures (as hereinafter defined) Approved as part of an 
Acquisition/Redevelopment Budget and actually expended. Such fee shall be 
deemed earned upon the expenditure of such funds by the Company and shall be 
payable quarterly.

      (c) INCENTIVE FEE. In addition to the Base Fee, if for any full 
calendar year during the term of this Agreement, the Company has achieved a 
"Return on Costs" greater than [*], all as determined as set forth below, 
Operating Member shall be entitled to an incentive fee for such calendar year 
equal to the product of (i) the aggregate Contributions made by the Members 
to the Company (calculated as of the end of the applicable calendar year) 
times (ii) [*] percent [*]. In addition, if for any full calendar year 
during the term of this Agreement, the Company has achieved a "Return on 
Costs" greater than [*], all as determined as set forth below, Operating 
Member shall be entitled to an additional incentive fee for such calendar 
year equal to the product of (ii) the aggregate Contributions made by the 
Members to the Company (calculated as of the end of the applicable calendar 
year) times (ii) [*] percent [*]. Such amount or amounts shall be payable 
annually in arrears within fifteen (15) days after Return on Costs is 
calculated and verified for such calendar year. If the payment of the 
incentive fee causes Return on Costs to be less than [*] or [*], as the case 
may be, the incentive fee shall be reduced to an amount which will result in 
Return on Costs to equal [*] or [*], as the case may be. For purposes of this 
provision, "Return on Costs" shall be calculated in accordance with the 
following formula:


                             Return on Costs= NOI/TC


                                     G-1-1
<PAGE>

            where, NOI equals the amount by which (i) the gross operating
      receipts of the Company and each Subsidiary Company for such calendar year
      (but excluding any gross receipts arising out of a Capital Transaction or
      any duplication of receipts between the Company and any Subsidiary
      Company) exceeds the sum of (ii) (a) the gross operating expenses of the
      Company and each Subsidiary Company for such calendar year, including
      without limitation, real estate taxes, insurance, utility costs and the
      fees and expenses payable to the Operating Member hereunder (excluding
      incentive fees), rental payments and the like (but excluding debt service
      payments, capital expenditures and other expenditures of a capital nature
      (such capital expenditures and expenses, "Capital Expenditures") and
      additions to reserves); and (b) an annual capital expense reserve equal to
      4% of the amount of gross operating receipts set forth in (i) above (the
      "Annual Capital Expense Reserve"); and

            TC equals the sum of (i) all Acquisition/Redevelopment Costs of the
      Properties incurred by the Company and each Subsidiary Company, including,
      without limitation, all Capital Expenditures Approved as part of the
      Acquisition/Redevelopment Budget (such Capital Expenditures, the
      "Anticipated Capital Expenditures") and (ii) the amount, if any, by which
      the aggregate amount of all Capital Expenditures other than Anticipated
      Capital Expenditures (such Capital Expenditures, the "Unanticipated
      Capital Expenditures") exceed the aggregate reserves established by the
      Company and each Operating Company for all Unanticipated Capital
      Expenditures (such reserves shall be deemed to equal the cumulative total
      of the Annual Capital Expense Reserve from the inception of the Company
      through the end of the applicable calendar year).

      In calculating Return on Costs, appropriate adjustments shall be made to
NOI and TC to reflect the purchase or sale of any Property during the applicable
calendar year.

      In addition, the Operating Member shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to require any tenant under a Lease (a "Lessee") to provide the
Operating Member with the following information for inclusion in the Asset
Business Plan:

            (i) Lessee's reasonable estimate (on a monthly basis) of gross

      intends to implement during the next calendar year to optimize both short
      and long-term profitability of the Property, together with a marketing

      sales quotas, sales action plans, media schedule, public relations plan,
      travel schedule, pricing schedule, food and beverage strategies and
      segmentation analysis;

            (iv) Lessee's estimates of any amounts the Company (or Subsidiary

      expenditures contemplated by the Capital Budget during the next calendar
      year;

            (v) A description of the current legal status of pending or
      threatened suits, actions, proceedings, inquiries, or investigations

II. ANNUAL BUDGETS. As part of each Asset Business Plan, Operating Member shall
prepare and submit to the Class A Member for the Class A Member's approval each
year a budget for each Property, projecting all revenues expected to be received
with respect to such Property during the following one (1) calendar year,
together with projected capital requirements, projected occupancy and average
daily room rates, and projected expenses of the Company and Subsidiary
Companies. The Class A Member acknowledges that certain information contained in
the Annual Budget will be produced by tenants under Leases. The Operating Member
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all of the foregoing
information from such tenants and covenants to provide the Class A Member with
copies of all materials prepared by such tenants which the Operating Member
receives. Operating Member shall explain in reasonable detail any assumptions
used in projecting all revenue and Company costs, including fees payable to
Operating Member hereunder, real estate taxes, insurance and general and
administrative costs and proposed capital expenditures, and a comparison of
projected revenues and expenses against prior year actual (including an
explanation of material deviations). In such budget, Operating Member may
expressly correlate an income category with a corresponding expense category and
expressly provide that if the actual income category exceeds the budget, the
corresponding expense category in the budget shall be deemed increased by the
same percentage as the actual income with respect to such income category
exceeds the budgeted amount for such income category. For example, if in the
budget, Operating Member provides for corresponding income and expense
categories and in such budget the income category equals $100 and the
corresponding expense category equals $50, if actual income with respect to such
income category is $110, then the expense category will be deemed automatically
increased by a corresponding percentage (in this example 10%) to $55. Such
budgets shall be supplemented by a sales and marketing plan, a capital plan and
such information as the Class A Member may reasonably request the

Operating Member to produce, or obtain from tenants under Leases, from time to
time. The format of such budgets shall be reasonably acceptable to the Class A
Member.
