CLAUSE XXVIII
GUARANTY
"NewCo hereby joins in the execution of this Agreement for purposes of agreeing to be jointly and severally liable with Owner for the payment of (i) any Management Fees and Incentive Fees or other amounts payable to Operator under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any damages to Operator in the event this Agreement is terminated by Operator on account of an Event of Default by Owner, and (ii) the obligations described in the last paragraph of Clause XXIII, in each case as and when due and payable to Operator pursuant to this Agreement. At all times during the Term of this Agreement, NewCo hereby agrees to maintain (x) Liquid Assets equal to or greater than the then applicable Liquid Assets Requirement, and (y) a Net Worth equal to or greater than the Net Worth Requirement. Upon request by Operator, but not more than once per calendar quarter, NewCo shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to Operator that NewCo is in compliance with the Liquid Assets Requirement and the New Worth Requirement; it being acknowledged and agreed by the Parties that NewCo's internally prepared quarterly financial statements for the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of such request certified by the chief financial officer of NewCo shall constitute evidence reasonable satisfactory to Operator for purposes of this Clause XXVIII.  In no event shall NewCo have the right to (and NewCo hereby agrees not to), directly or indirectly assign, delegate or otherwise transfer its obligations and liabilities under this Clause XXVIII. Any purported, direct or indirect, assignment, delegation or other transfer of NewCo's obligations or liabilities under this Clause XXVIII, shall be an immediate Event of Default hereunder and shall be void ab initio. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause XXVIII shall be deemed to restrict any direct or indirect transfers of interests in NewCo that are permitted pursuant to Section 6 of the Transaction Agreement and such direct or indirect transfers of interests in NewCo that are permitted pursuant to Section 6 of the Transaction

16

Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Clause XXVIII. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Clause XXVIII to the contrary, this Clause XXVIII and NewCo's obligations hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the earlier to occur of the following, but only if all amounts then due and payable by NewCo pursuant to this Clause XXVIII have been paid in full: (i) the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, or (ii) without in any way limiting the terms, provisions and restrictions of Section 13.2 of this Agreement, the transfer of the Hotel to, and the assignment of this Agreement to and the assumption of this Agreement by, a successor owner, that is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of Owner, in each of the foregoing cases, in accordance with the express terms, provisions and restrictions of Section 13.2 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall NewCo be liable for any obligations under this Agreement of any assignee of Owner described in the foregoing clause (ii) in accordance with the express terms, provisions and restrictions of Section 13 .2 of this Agreement."
