                  minimum annual rent is allocated among the Texas Hotels before
                  such calculation. The calculation of minimum annual rent under
                  the Texas Lease as set forth in part (y) of the preceding
                  sentence is described in Exhibit T attached hereto and

                  forth in (A) part (y) above and (B) Exhibit T, the terms of

                  HPT Assignment and Security Agreement or the HPT Stock Pledge
                  unless an objection to such terms and provisions is made in
                  accordance with the provisions of Section 12.1. The Texas
                  Property shall be leased by the Prime Texas Subsidiary free
                  and clear of all Encumbrances, but subject to the Permitted
                  Exceptions which relate to the Texas Property and to the Texas
                  Operating Agreements. From and after Closing, all liabilities

                  pursuant to the terms thereof shall be guaranteed by ShoLodge
                  pursuant to an instrument in form and substance reasonably
                  satisfactory to Prime and ShoLodge, but such undertaking by
                  ShoLodge shall terminate upon the transfer of the Texas
                  Property to HPT or an Affiliate of HPT or to another Person
                  whose net worth on the date of such transfer is equal to or
                  greater than ten (10) times the unapplied balance of the
                  "Retained Funds" held pursuant to the Texas Lease, provided
                  that such transferee has assumed the obligation of Southeast
                  to deliver the "Retained Funds" upon the expiration of the
                  Texas Lease by written documents in form and substance

                  11.6 hereof). Prime shall have the right, during normal
                  business hours and with prior notice to ShoLodge, to
                  periodically (i) inspect the construction of each hotel and
                  (ii) review the timing and cost of such construction with
                  Moore and the architect for each hotel. In conducting such
                  inspections, Prime shall use its best efforts to avoid
                  disrupting ongoing construction activities and shall indemnify
                  and hold ShoLodge, Moore and the Development Site Subsidiaries
                  harmless from and against any and all claims for damages by

                  the extent arising out of or attributable to such inspections

                  contract between each Development Site Subsidiary and Moore
                  shall provide that such contract is assignable to Prime
                  without the consent of Moore and that Prime shall be a third
                  party beneficiary thereunder. Prime shall not exercise any
                  rights as such third party beneficiary unless and until the
                  occurrence of, and during the continuance of, an Event of
                  Default as described in Subsections (iv), (v), (vi), (vii),

                  of Default, Prime and/or its designees shall (i) have the
                  right to enter upon the Mt. Laurel Property and/or the Fairfax
                  County Property to complete Completion (as defined under the

                  the balance of the Deposit (as defined in the Escrow
                  Agreement) in connection with the Completion. If Prime or its
                  designee undertakes the work to complete the Completion in
                  accordance with the applicable Option, upon Completion and
                  opening of the applicable hotel as an "AmeriSuites" hotel to
                  the public, Prime shall pay an amount equal to unreimbursed
                  actual costs expended by the applicable Development Site
                  Subsidiary in connection with the Completion from the balance
                  of the Deposit after deducting any unpaid portion of the
                  Exchange Shortfall Amount.

                  completion of the construction of each hotel as set forth in

                                   purchase.

                           Further, at the closing of any such purchase as
                  contemplated herein, revenues and expenses respecting the
                  acquired properties shall be credited or charged, as the case
                  may be, similar to the adjustments with respect to the Hotels
                  as specified in Section 9.1 so that the Prime HPT Subsidiary
                  is given a credit or charge, as the case may be, for all
                  revenues and expenses respecting the transferred assets which
                  are attributable to operations before the closing date of the
                  acquisition, and the buyer of a particular property is given a
                  credit or charge, as the case may be, for all such revenues
                  and expenses attributable to operations on and after the
                  closing date of the acquisition.

                           Following the closing of any purchase as contemplated
                  herein, the Prime HPT Subsidiary shall cooperate with the
                  transferee in its efforts to obtain new operating permits and
                  licenses for the transferred hotel or modifications to
                  existing operating permits and licenses or, to the extent
                  permitted by applicable law, to maintain the existing
                  operating permits and licenses in effect until such time as
                  the new or modified operating permits and licenses may be
                  obtained. Until such time as such new or modified operating
                  permits and licenses are obtained, the Prime HPT Subsidiary,
                  to the extent permitted by applicable law,

                  shall take all steps reasonably necessary to enable the
                  current operating permits and licenses, if any, to be used in
                  the operation of the transferred hotel and to permit the
                  continued operation of the transferred hotel, including,
                  without limitation, the uninterrupted sale and serving of
                  alcoholic beverages at the transferred hotel, if applicable.
                  All costs and expenses incurred by Prime and/or the Prime HPT
                  Subsidiary in connection with the foregoing shall be paid by
                  ShoLodge, and ShoLodge shall defend, indemnify and hold Prime
                  and/or the Prime HPT Subsidiary harmless from and against any
                  and all loss, expense (including, without limitation,
                  reasonable attorney's fees and court costs arising from the
                  enforcement of this indemnity), damage and liability arising
                  from the foregoing.

                           5.4      Purchase of Property by Prime. In the event
                  (i) Landlord exercises its put option with respect to one or
                  both of the Alpharetta Property and the Albuquerque Property
                  as described in Section 9(c) of the HPT Lease Amendment, (ii)
                  ShoLodge defaults in its obligation to acquire a put property
                  within 10 days of the Landlord's exercise of its put option
                  and otherwise in compliance with Section 5.3 hereof, and (iii)
                  Prime or an Affiliate of Prime sends notice to Landlord that
                  ShoLodge has failed to acquire such put property and that it
                  will purchase such put property pursuant to the exercise by
                  Landlord of its put option as described in Section 9(c) of the
                  HPT Lease Amendment, then, in such event, simultaneously with
                  the closing of the acquisition of such put property by Prime,
                  the following exchanges shall take place: (x) if ShoLodge has
                  failed to purchase and Prime is to purchase the Albuquerque
                  Property, ShoLodge shall cause the Development Site Subsidiary
                  which owns the Mt. Laurel Property to transfer the Mt. Laurel
                  Property to Prime or its designee, (y) if ShoLodge has failed
                  to purchase and Prime is to purchase the Alpharetta Property,
                  ShoLodge shall cause the Development Site Subsidiary which
                  owns the Fairfax County Property to transfer the Fairfax
                  County Property to Prime or its designee and (z) if ShoLodge
                  has failed to purchase and Prime is to purchase either or both
                  of the Albuquerque Property and/or Alpharetta Property,
                  ShoLodge shall pay the applicable Exchange Shortfall Amount
                  (as defined below) in exchange for the applicable put
                  property. Upon, ShoLodge's payment of the Exchange Shortfall
                  Amount, Prime shall pay the applicable Development Site
                  Subsidiary the balance of the Deposit, if any (as defined in
                  the Escrow Agreement). All documents and instruments necessary
                  for such exchange shall be in form and substance reasonably
                  acceptable to ShoLodge or its designee and to Prime.

                           In addition to the provisions of the preceding
                  paragraph, if Prime acquires one or both of the Alpharetta
                  Property and the Albuquerque Property pursuant to the exercise
                  by Landlord of its put option as described in Section 9(c) of
                  the HPT Lease Amendment, ShoLodge shall pay to Prime with
                  respect to each such acquired property an amount equal to the
                  difference between (an "Exchange Shortfall Amount") (i) the
                  sum of (x) purchase price paid by Prime to Landlord for such
                  property and (y) amounts incurred by Prime in connection with
                  Completion under the Fairfax County Option or Mt. Laurel
                  Option, as applicable, in excess of the portion of the Deposit
                  (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) paid

                                       16

                  to Prime and (ii) an amount equal to the number of units at
                  the Fairfax County Option (i.e., 124 units) or the Mt. Laurel
                  Option (i.e., 125 units), as applicable, multiplied times
                  Seventy-Six Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($76,500)
                  per unit. Such payment shall be made by ShoLodge in
                  immediately available funds simultaneously with the closing of
                  Prime's purchase of the applicable property.

                           At the closing of any such exchange as contemplated
                  herein and upon Landlord's authorization (without any
                  obligations imposed on Prime, contingent or otherwise) and
                  release of Prime and/or the Prime HPT Subsidiary with respect
                  to the FF&E Reserve to be delivered to ShoLodge under the FF&E
                  Pledge and/or the Deposit Account Control Agreement (both as
                  defined or described in the HPT Lease Amendment), Prime shall
                  cause the Prime HPT Subsidiary to deliver to ShoLodge an
                  amount equal to the sum of the "FF&E Reserve" created pursuant
                  to the HPT Lease allocable to the Existing HPT Hotel being
                  exchanged as of the Effective Closing Date plus all deposits
                  into such "FF&E Reserve" following the Effective Closing Date
                  allocable to such Existing HPT Hotel being exchanged, less
                  expenditures with respect to such Existing HPT Hotel
                  reimbursed from such "FF&E Reserve" following the Effective
                  Closing Date; provided, however, that the amount to be
                  delivered to ShoLodge pursuant to this paragraph for a
                  particular exchange shall not exceed an amount equal to the
                  portion of the "FF&E Reserve" released by Landlord in
                  connection with the purchase of such Existing HPT Hotel by
                  Prime, less any amount which the Prime HPT Subsidiary is
                  obligated to deposit into the "FF&E Reserve" at the closing of
                  such purchase and as a result of such purchase. Further, if in
                  connection with any purchase by Prime of a put property as
                  contemplated herein, the HPT Lease Security Deposit which
                  relates to such acquired property is returned by Landlord and
                  the lien of Landlord therein is released, then at the closing
                  of the exchange contemplated herein such returned portion of
                  the HPT Lease Security Deposit shall be paid as follows:

                          (a)      an amount equal to the present value of the
                                   returned portion of the HPT Lease Security
                                   Deposit on the date of payment assuming
                                   payment on June 30, 2013 and assuming a
                                   discount rate of nine percent (9%), plus the
                                   present value of the rent reduction in
                                   Section 4.3 attributable to this portion of
                                   the HPT Lease Security Deposit from the date
                                   such portion of the HPT Lease Security
                                   Deposit is returned to June 30, 2011,
                                   assuming a discount rate of nine percent
                                   (9%), shall be retained by Prime or the Prime
                                   HPT Subsidiary; and

                          (b)      the balance of the returned portion of the
                                   HPT Lease Security Deposit shall be paid to
                                   ShoLodge

                           The provisions of this Section 5.4 set forth the sole
                  and exclusive remedy available to Prime for any default by
                  ShoLodge in its obligation to purchase a put property as
                  described in Section 5.3. Prime, however, shall have any and
                  all

                                       17

                  remedies available to it at law or in equity in the event
                  ShoLodge fails to perform its obligations set forth in this
                  Section 5.4.

                           Nothing contained herein is intended to relieve
                  ShoLodge from causing the Development Site Subsidiary which
                  owns the Mt. Laurel Property and/or Fairfax County Property to
                  transfer to Prime or its designee the Mt. Laurel Property
                  and/or the Fairfax County Property in the event it fails to
                  pay to Prime the applicable Exchange Shortfall Amount.
                  ShoLodge acknowledges (i) its obligation to cause such
                  transfers of the Mt. Laurel Property and/or the Fairfax County
                  Property to Prime or its designee is independent of Prime's
                  obligation to transfer the applicable put property to ShoLodge
                  and (ii) the applicable put property or put properties will be
                  transferred to ShoLodge upon (x) its payment to Prime of the
                  applicable Exchange Shortfall Amount and (y) Completion,
                  including without limitation, the opening of the Mt. Laurel
                  Property and/or the Fairfax County Property, as applicable, as
                  an "AmeriSuites" hotel to public.

                           5.5      Operating Assets. At the closing of any
                  exchange as contemplated in Section 5.2 or in Section 5.4 and
                  for no additional consideration, ShoLodge shall cause the
                  applicable Development Site Subsidiary to sell, convey,
                  transfer, assign and deliver to the Prime HPT Subsidiary, and
                  Prime shall cause the Prime HPT Subsidiary to sell, convey,
                  transfer, assign and deliver to ShoLodge or its designee,
                  without any representation or warranty whatsoever, all the
                  following (subject to Landlord having released any lien which
                  Landlord may have on such property):

                          (a)      all merchandise, inventories, materials and
                                   supplies used or intended for use or held for
                                   use in connection with and located on the
                                   closing date of such exchange at the
                                   transferred hotel;

                          (b)      all reservation and advance booking deposits
                                   and guest deposits (including interest, if
                                   any, accrued thereon) for guests or future
                                   guests of the transferred hotel existing on
                                   the closing date of such exchange;

                          (c)      to the extent assignable, all of the right,
                                   title and interest of the transferor, if any,
                                   in and to all service contracts, vendor
                                   agreements, maintenance agreements, utility
                                   contracts, cable service agreements,
                                   advertising agreements, equipment leases and
                                   similar operating agreements relating to the
                                   transferred hotel and in effect on the
                                   closing date of such exchange;

                          (d)      to the extent assignable, all of the right,
                                   title and interest of the transferor, if any,
                                   in and to licenses and permits for the sale
                                   and on-premises consumption of liquor and

                                   located at and used in connection with the
                                   transferred hotel on the closing date of such
                                   exchange.

                  Further, ShoLodge shall cause to be delivered to Prime a copy
                  of all surveys, warranties, specifications and plans and
                  as-built drawings, if any, in the possession of ShoLodge or an
                  Affiliate of ShoLodge which relate to any property transferred
                  to Landlord, Prime or the Prime HPT Subsidiary in connection
                  with any exchange contemplated in Section 5.2 or in Section
                  5.4.

                           Further, at the closing of any such exchange as
                  contemplated in Section 5.2 or in Section 5.4, revenues and
                  expenses respecting the exchanged properties shall be credited
                  or charged, as the case may be, similar to the adjustments
                  with respect to the Hotels as specified in Section 9.1 so that
                  the transferor of the operating assets described in the
                  preceding paragraph is given a credit or charge, as the case
                  may be, for all revenues and expenses respecting the

                  operating assets described in the second preceding paragraph
                  shall cooperate with the transferee of such assets in its
                  efforts to obtain new operating permits and licenses for the
                  transferred hotel or modifications to existing operating
                  permits and licenses or, to the extent permitted by applicable
                  law, to maintain the existing operating permits and licenses
                  in effect until such time as the new or modified operating
                  permits and licenses may be obtained. Until such time as such
                  new or modified operating permits and licenses are obtained,
                  the transferor of the operating assets described in the second
                  preceding paragraph, to the extent permitted by applicable
                  law, shall take all steps reasonably necessary to enable the
                  current operating permits and licenses, if any, to be used in
                  the operation of the transferred hotel and to permit the
                  continued operation of the transferred hotel, including,
                  without limitation, the uninterrupted sale and serving of
                  alcoholic beverages at the transferred hotel, if applicable.
                  All costs and expenses incurred by such transferor in
                  connection with the foregoing shall be paid by the transferee,
                  and the transferee shall defend, indemnify and hold such
                  transferor harmless from and against any and all loss, expense
                  (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and
                  court costs arising from the enforcement of this indemnity),
                  damage and liability arising from the foregoing.

                  of the Mt. Laurel Property and the Fairfax County Property,
                  all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord
                  and Prime, Seven Million and No/100 Dollars ($7,000,000.00)
                  for the development of a hotel on the Mt. Laurel, New Jersey
                  Development Site and Six Million Nine Hundred Thirty-Two
                  Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($6,932,000.00) for the
                  development of a hotel on the Fairfax County, Virginia

                  delivered or invested and disbursed, as applicable, by the
                  Escrow Agent as provided therein.

                           5.7      Condition of Properties. In the event
                  ShoLodge or its designee acquires an Existing HPT Hotel
                  pursuant to an exchange described in Section 5.2, a purchase
                  described in Section 5.3 or an exchange described in Section
                  5.4, Prime HPT Subsidiary shall cause such Existing HPT Hotel
                  (including, without limitation, the real property, the
                  improvements located on such real property and the furniture,
                  fixtures and equipment located on such real property or within
                  such improvements) at the time of such acquisition by ShoLodge
                  or its designee to be in the same condition as existed on the
                  Effective Closing Date, ordinary wear and tear and conditions
                  resulting from casualty and/or condemnation only excepted;
                  provided, however, such exception for ordinary wear and tear
                  shall not limit the maintenance and repair obligations of the
                  Prime HPT Subsidiary under Article 5 of the HPT Lease, which
                  obligations shall be performed by the Prime HPT Subsidiary as
                  to each Existing HPT Hotel acquired by ShoLodge or its
                  designee. Further, between the Effective Closing Date and the
                  closing of any such exchange or purchase, as applicable, Prime
                  shall not further encumber, or permit the Prime HPT Subsidiary
                  to further encumber, any such property to be acquired by
                  ShoLodge or its designee except in each case required under
                  the HPT Lease or any amendments thereto. Nothing contained
                  herein is intended to modify ShoLodge's right to receive the
                  insurance and/or condemnation proceeds pursuant to Section 5.2
                  of the applicable Option Agreement.

                  County Property, the Alpharetta Property or the Albuquerque
                  Property, as appropriate, shall have the option, but not the
                  obligation, to operate each such property as an "AmeriSuites"
                  hotel pursuant to the standard license or franchise agreement,
                  if any, then used, or most recently used if a standard license
                  or franchise agreement is not then being used, by Prime to
                  franchise "AmeriSuites" hotels, but with (i) a minimum term of
                  ten (10) years, (ii) no "initial" fee or "license" fee due
                  upon signing such agreement (but with full standard royalty,
                  marketing and reservation fees), and (iii) a right of the
                  licensee or franchisee to terminate without penalty or any
                  termination fee upon at least thirty (30) days prior written
                  notice (provided no written notice of termination shall be

                  contemplated in Section 5.2 or in Section 5.4).

                           5.9      Survival. The provisions of Article V shall
                  survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated herein.

                  55.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the
initial sentence of Section 6.1 thereof in its entirety and inserting in lieu
thereof the following:

                  The total purchase price for the STI Assets and the Texas
                  Hotel Operating Assets shall be One Million Six Hundred
                  Seventeen Thousand Six Hundred Twenty Five and No/100 Dollars
                  ($1,617,625.00) (the "Purchase Price").

                  56.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section
6.1(a) in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:

                  ShoLoge shall, on the date hereof, pay $29,495.00 to Prime, in
                  cash or other immediately available funds, to an account or
                  accounts designated by Prime prior to the Closing, in return
                  for Prime's delivery of the debt securities referenced in
                  Section 6.1(b) below which are in excess of the Purchase Price
                  by such $29,495.00.

                  57.      The Agreement is hereby amended by adding the
following after the last sentence of Section 6.1:

                  The parties hereto agree that the Purchase Price will increase
                  by the Incremental Purchase Price, if and only if Landlord
                  indefeasibly returns the Additional Deposit (as such term is
                  defined in the HPT Lease Amendment) to Prime at which time the
                  Purchase Price shall be paid to ShoLodge in cash or other
                  immediately available funds, to an account or accounts
                  designated by ShoLodge. The "Incremental Purchase Price" shall
                  mean the difference between (i) $382,375.00 and (ii) the
                  amount determined by multiplying Two Million Five Hundred
                  Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) by 2.00% and
                  dividing the product of such multiplication by 12, which
                  resulting stream of monthly payment amounts shall be
                  discounted using a discount rate of 9% for the number months
                  that have elapsed between the month in which the Closing
                  occurs and the month in which Landlord indefeasibly returns
                  the Additional Deposit to Prime (including the month in which
                  the Closing and the return of the Additional Deposit occur).

                  58.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the last
sentence of Section 6.1 thereof in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof
the following:

                  The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the STI Assets and
                  the Texas Hotel Operating Assets as set forth on Exhibit N
                  attached hereto and made a part hereof.

                  59.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section
6.2 thereof in its entirety.

                  60.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section
7.1 thereof in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:

                           7.1      Construction Contract. At the Closing, Prime
                  shall enter into, and ShoLodge shall cause Moore to enter
                  into, an agreement (the "Construction Contract") in form and
                  substance reasonably satisfactory to Prime and Moore whereby
                  Moore will agree to construct for Prime, and Prime will engage
                  Moore to construct, an AmeriSuites hotel on the property
                  described on Exhibit R attached hereto and incorporated herein
                  by this reference (or on an alternative site as shall be
                  acceptable to Landlord and ShoLodge in their absolute
                  discretion) (the "Prime Development Site"). The Construction
                  Contract shall provide for a fixed price of Seventy-Six
                  Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($76,500.00) per room
                  (including land (to the extent specified below), building and
                  furniture, fixtures and equipment). The parties acknowledge
                  that the fixed price set forth in the preceding sentence
                  includes Prime's out-of-pocket cost of acquisition of the
                  Prime Development Site in the amount of One Million One
                  Hundred Fifteen Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,115,000.00),
                  and, thus, Prime's out-of-pocket cost of acquiring the Prime
                  Development Site in the amount of One Million One Hundred
                  Fifteen Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,115,000.00) shall be
                  deducted from the fixed price otherwise payable to Moore
                  during the course of construction. Disbursements to Moore of
                  the fixed price will be paid by Prime monthly during
                  construction based upon the percentage of completion, subject
                  to retainage of ten percent (10%). The Construction Contract
                  shall further provide that Moore shall construct on the Prime
                  Development Site a hotel building in accordance with the plans
                  and specifications for a prototypical six (6) story one
                  hundred twenty-four (124) unit Sumner Suites hotel, but with
                  finishes and signage in accordance with the plans and
                  specifications described on Exhibit K attached hereto and
                  incorporated herein by this reference, all in accordance with
                  all applicable laws, regulations, statutes and orders. The
                  parties acknowledge that the Construction Contract shall
                  contain a scheduled completion date, together with delay
                  damages, among other terms, which terms shall be negotiated
                  during the Due Diligence Period. ShoLodge shall join in the
                  Construction Contract for the purpose of guaranteeing the
                  obligations of Moore thereunder. At the Closing, ShoLodge
                  shall cause Moore, at Moore's sole cost and expense, to
                  deliver to Prime a Performance Bond and a Labor and Material
                  Payment Bond relating to the Construction Contract, both in
                  form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Prime and Moore.
                  The provisions of this Section 7.1 shall survive the Closing,
                  but any conflict between the terms of this Section 7.1 and the
                  terms of the Construction Contract shall be governed by the
                  Construction Contract.

                  61.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the
language "an agreement (the" from the first sentence of Section 8.1 thereof and
inserting in lieu thereof the language "an agreement or agreements
(collectively, the ".

                  62.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the
language "one (1) year period" both places it appears in Section 8.1(g) thereof
and inserting in lieu thereof the language "eighteen (18) month period" and by
deleting the language "initial Closing Date under this Agreement," and inserting
in lieu thereof the words "Effective Closing Date".

                  Subsidiary takes possession (any such cash shall be counted by
                  representatives of ShoLodge and Prime on the Effective Closing

                  Closing Date arising from accounts receivable with respect to
                  guests of the Hotels then in occupancy which in the normal

                           (iii)    amounts paid prior to Closing for any ad

                  applicable amount as reflected on Exhibit O attached hereto

                  terminate this Agreement as to a damaged Hotel (and the Assets
                  related thereto) by giving timely written notice of
                  termination as provided herein or if a Hotel is damaged but
                  the damage is such that Prime does not have an option to
                  terminate this Agreement as to such damaged Hotel (and the
                  Assets related thereto), Prime shall consummate the
                  transactions contemplated hereunder (including, without
                  limitation, as contemplated herein with respect to such
                  damaged Hotel (and the Assets related thereto)), in which
                  event the applicable Prime Subsidiary, except as otherwise
                  provided in the HPT Lease, shall be entitled to all insurance
                  or other proceeds payable by reason of such loss or damage to
                  such damaged Hotel in excess of the amount spent by ShoLodge
                  or a ShoLodge Subsidiary to repair such damage (insurance or
                  other proceeds in such amount being payable to ShoLodge or
                  such ShoLodge Subsidiary), and, in addition, there shall be a
                  reduction in the Purchase Price by the amount by which any
                  deductibles under the policies of insurance covering such loss
                  or damage exceed the amount spent by ShoLodge or a ShoLodge
                  Subsidiary to repair such damage which is not reimbursed from
                  insurance or other proceeds. ShoLodge shall not permit STI to
                  terminate the HPT Lease due to any casualty without the prior
                  written approval of Prime, such written approval not to be
                  unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In the event of
                  a casualty to an Existing HPT Hotel such that Prime elects to
                  terminate this Agreement as to such Hotel, ShoLodge agrees
                  that, at Prime's request, ShoLodge shall cause STI to
                  terminate the HPT Lease with respect to such Hotel pursuant to
                  the provisions thereof. Further, prior to commencing the
                  repair of any damage following a casualty event which would
                  cost more than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars
                  ($250,000.00) in the aggregate to repair,

                  ShoLodge shall cause STI to obtain the prior written consent
                  of Prime, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
                  delayed, to such repair.

                  80.      The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section
13.4 thereof in its entirety and inserting in lieu thereof the following:

                  by STI pursuant to the HPT Lease or any proposed sale in lieu
                  thereof, ShoLodge shall give written notice thereof to Prime
                  promptly after ShoLodge learns or receives notice thereof, and
                  Prime shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as to

                  Assets related thereto), as applicable, only by giving written
                  notice to ShoLodge on or prior to the date ten (10) days after
                  receipt of such written notice from ShoLodge, in which event
                  (i) if applicable, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the
                  applicable amount as reflected on Exhibit O attached hereto
                  and incorporated herein by this reference (such reduction to

                  amount as specified on Exhibit P attached hereto and
                  incorporated herein by this reference. If Prime fails to
                  terminate this Agreement as to any such HPT Real Property or
                  any such Texas Real Property (and the Assets related thereto),
                  as applicable, by giving timely written notice of termination
                  as provided herein or if the taking or threatened taking of
                  such HPT Real Property or Texas Real Property, as applicable,
                  is such that Prime does not have an option to terminate this
                  Agreement as to such HPT Real Property or such Texas Real
                  Property (and the Assets related thereto), as applicable,
                  Prime shall consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder
                  (including, without limitation, as contemplated herein with

                  except as otherwise provided in the HPT Lease, shall be
                  entitled to all proceeds, awards and other payments arising
                  out of such condemnation or sale (actual or threatened), but
                  there shall be no reduction in the Purchase Price. ShoLodge
                  shall not permit STI to terminate the HPT Lease due to any
                  taking pursuant to the power of eminent domain without the
                  prior written approval of Prime, such written approval of
                  Prime not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
                  In the event of a taking with respect to any HPT Real
                  Property, ShoLodge agrees that, at Prime's request, ShoLodge
                  shall cause STI to terminate the HPT Lease with respect to
                  such HPT Real Property pursuant to the provisions thereof.

                           18.3     HPT Lease Extension. In the event that the

                  Landlord or an Affiliate of HPT and the Prime HPT Subsidiary
                  or an Affiliate of Prime enter into a lease with respect to

                  Hundred Seventeen Thousand Eight Hundred Seventy and No/100
                  Dollars ($4,817,870.00); provided, however, in the event that
                  either (i) any portion of the HPT Lease Security Deposit which
                  relates to an Existing HPT Hotel (or a hotel exchanged for an
                  Existing HPT Hotel as contemplated in the last sentence of

                  Subsidiary prior to June 30, 2013 for any reason or (B) is
                  applied against any obligation of the Prime HPT Subsidiary in
                  accordance with the terms of the HPT Lease prior to June 30,
                  2013 due to a default by the Prime HPT Subsidiary under the
                  HPT Lease, or (ii) any portion of the HPT Lease Security
                  Deposit is paid to ShoLodge and Prime pursuant to the last
                  sentence of the initial paragraph of Section 5.3 or the last
                  sentence of the third paragraph of Section 5.4, and the rent
                  payable under the Texas Lease is increased pursuant to Section
                  4.3 and there has been no default in the payment of such

                  under the Texas Lease, then the amount payable by Prime to
                  ShoLodge (as previously reduced, if applicable) shall be
                  reduced by an amount equal to the assumed earnings on the
                  portion of the HPT Lease Security Deposit returned, applied or
                  paid, as applicable, at nine percent (9%) interest compounded
                  monthly between the later of (x) July 1, 2011, or (y) the date
                  of such return, application or payment, as applicable, and
                  June 30, 2013. The calculation of the amount payable to
                  ShoLodge as set forth in the preceding sentence is described
                  in Exhibit T attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
                  reference. In the event of any conflict between the
                  calculation of the amount payable to ShoLodge as set forth in
                  (x) this Section 18.3 and (y) Exhibit T, the terms of Exhibit
                  T shall govern. The provisions of this Section 18.3 shall
                  survive the Closing. ShoLodge shall have any and all remedies
                  available to it at law or in equity in the event Prime
                  violates the provisions of this Section 18.3.

                           18.4     Option Agreements. From and after the
                  Closing Date, ShoLodge shall not enter into an amendment to
                  the option agreements whereby Landlord is given options to

         applicable Exchange Option.

                   (ii) Landlord shall exercise such Put Option no later than

by the Tenant or any other guarantor of any other obligations under or arising
out of any of the foregoing or the extension or renewal thereof; (v) the
modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement
or obligation of the Tenant or any other guarantor set forth in any of the
foregoing including, without limitations, the modifications contemplated by this
Agreement, the Options or in any other document executed in connection herewith
or the Amended Lease; (vi) the voluntary or involuntary sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Tenant or any other
guarantor or insolvency, bankruptcy, or other similar proceedings affecting the
Tenant or any other guarantor or any assets of the Tenant or any such other
guarantor; or (vii) the release or discharge of the Tenant or any such other
guarantor from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or
condition contained in any of the foregoing without the consent of the holders
of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law. Landlord, HPT, Assignee and
Prime acknowledge and agree that under no circumstance shall ShoLodge or
Assignor ever be obligated to contribute additional funds hereunder or under the
Guaranty to be added to or to replenish the Guaranty Deposit, including, without
limitation, upon any use of the Guaranty Deposit, any portion thereof or any
interest thereon to cure any default under the Amended Lease or any failure by
HPT, Landlord or any successor holder of the Guaranty Deposit to deliver the
Guaranty Deposit or any interest thereon as required herein. Nothing contained
in the foregoing shall diminish or reduce Sholodge's obligations under the
Supplemental Guaranty.

         (e)      Sholodge, Landlord and HPT shall not amend or modify the
Guaranty without Prime's prior written consent; provided that the terms thereof
as modified hereby may be ratified and confirmed from time to time. Sholodge
hereby agreeing to execute and deliver such confirmations of the Guaranty as
Landlord may reasonably require in connection with the closings under the
Exchange Options and/or the Put Options. Further, Sholodge shall execute and
deliver such amendments to the Guaranty as Prime and Landlord shall request
provided that

                                      -17-
<PAGE>   62

no such amendment modifies or diminishes the non-recourse nature of the
Guaranty as set forth in Section 10(d) above.

         (f)      If, in connection with the assignment in whole or in part of
the Amended Lease, HPT and Landlord or any successor holder of the Guaranty
Deposit shall transfer the Guaranty Deposit to a someone having a Net Worth of
not less than ten (10) times the unapplied balance thereof, Landlord and HPT or
any such successor shall be relieved of all of their obligations with respect to
the Guaranty Deposit and interest thereon. If such successor shall not satisfy
the aforesaid Net Worth requirement, Landlord and HPT shall, in a guaranty in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Prime, guaranty the payment of the
Guaranty Deposit and interest thereon in accordance with this Agreement. At the
time of any such assignment, Landlord and HPT shall cause such successor to
acknowledge in writing to ShoLodge and Assignor such successor's agreement to
the continued applicability of the provisions of Section 10(d).

         (g)      Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, in lieu of the interest otherwise due under the Guaranty during the
Term, HPT shall credit the Tenant with interest on any unapplied balance of the
Guaranty Deposit at a rate of 11.11% per annum. Such interest shall be credited
against the rent and other charges due under the Lease in arrears and pro rated
with respect to any partial month.

         11.      ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT. (a) Simultaneously with the execution and
delivery hereof, Prime has (i) deposited with Landlord the sum (the "ADDITIONAL
DEPOSIT") of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) as security
the payment and performance of each and every obligation of the Tenant to
Landlord under the Amended Lease and the Incidental Documents, whether now
existing or hereafter arising, and including, without limitation, the payment of
the full amount of the Rent payable under the Amended Lease and (ii) contributed
to Assignee the right to receive any interest due on the Additional Deposit
during the Term pursuant to the terms hereof. Landlord shall have no obligation
to hold the Additional Deposit in a segregated account and may commingle the
same with its general funds. Provided that no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, Landlord shall credit the Tenant with interest on
any unapplied balance of the Additional Deposit at a rate of 9% per annum. Such
interest shall be credited against the rent and other charges due under the
Amended Lease in arrears and pro rated with respect to any partial month. Upon
the earlier of the expiration of the Amended Lease and the payment and
performance of each and every obligation of the Tenant to Landlord and HPT under
the Lease and Incidental Documents and the termination of Prime's obligation to
keep the Additional Deposit with Landlord pursuant to Section 11(b) below,
provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord
shall refund any unapplied balance of the Additional Deposit, together with any
accrued and unpaid (or uncredited) interest with respect thereto, to Prime. In
the event Landlord shall fail to refund any unapplied balance of the Additional
Deposit and accrued interest to Prime on the date due, Landlord shall thereafter
pay Prime interest thereon at the Overdue Rate until paid.

         (b)      Provided that no (i) monetary Default, (ii) Default as to
which Notice thereof has been given to Tenant or (iii) Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing under the

                                      -18-
<PAGE>   63

Amended Lease, (iv) Cash Flow for a period of twelve (12) full consecutive
Accounting Periods equals or exceeds Thirty-Four Million Fifteen Thousand
Dollars ($34,015,000) with respect to such period and (v) Landlord shall receive
a schedule evidencing the foregoing, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord prepared by a, so-called, "Big-Five" accounting firm or
such other certified public accountants as are approved by Landlord (such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the
obligation of Prime to keep the Additional Deposit with Landlord shall terminate
ten (10) Business Days after delivery to Landlord of the financial statements
described in clause (v) preceding, and Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business
Days after the written request of Prime, pay any unapplied balance of the
Additional Deposit to Prime, together with any accrued and unpaid interest
thereon.

         (c)      If, in connection with the assignment in whole or in part of
the Amended Lease, Landlord or any successor holder of the Additional Deposit
shall transfer the Additional Deposit to someone having a Net Worth of not less
than ten (10) times the unapplied balance thereof, Landlord or any such
successor shall be relieved of all of their obligations with respect to the
Additional Deposit and interest thereon. If such successor shall not satisfy the
aforesaid Net Worth requirement, Landlord shall, in a guaranty in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Prime, guaranty the payment of the
Additional Deposit and interest thereon in accordance with this Agreement.

         12.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         (a)      EXPENSES. Assignor and Assignee shall pay their and Landlord's
expenses incident to the negotiation, preparation and carrying out of this
Agreement, including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and expenses of
Landlord's counsel (collectively, "LANDLORD'S EXPENSES"). Assignor and Assignee
shall also pay the cost of all recording fees, transfer fees and other like
costs and expenses incident to this Agreement and the assignment of the Lease.
As between Assignor and Assignee, Landlord's Expenses shall be paid as they have
or may agree.

         (b)      BROKERAGE. Assignor and Assignee agree that Landlord is not
responsible for the payment of any commission or fees in connection with this
Agreement and they each jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold
harmless Landlord from and against any claims, liabilities, losses or expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Landlord in connection with
any claims for commissions or fees by any broker or agent in connection with
this Agreement.

         (c)      PUBLICITY. The parties agree that no party shall, with respect
to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, contact or conduct
negotiations with public officials, make any public pronouncements, issue press
releases or otherwise furnish information regarding this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated to any third party without the consent of the other
party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned,
except as required by law or unless such action is taken based on advice of
counsel given in good faith. No party or its employees shall trade in the
securities of the parties hereto or their affiliates until a public announcement
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been made.

         (d)      PERFORMANCE ON BUSINESS DAYS. In the event the date on which
performance or payment of any obligation of a party required hereunder is other
than a Business Day, the time for payment or performance shall automatically be
extended to the first Business Day following such date.

         13.      APPLICABLE LAW, ETC. This Agreement shall be interpreted,
construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts
which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (i) where
this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or other
performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or (iii)
where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause of
action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is
instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal
place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any
party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply
the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or
(vii) any combination of the foregoing.

         To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any action to
enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any of the provisions of
this Agreement may be brought and prosecuted in such court or courts located in
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts as is provided by law; and the parties consent
to the jurisdiction of said court or courts located in The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and to service of process by registered mail, return receipt
requested, or by any other manner provided by law.

         14.      MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT. No modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement, nor any consent to any departure by any party
therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing
and signed by the others, and such modification, waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No
notice to or demand on any party in any case shall entitle such party to any
other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
By a separate instrument of even date herewith, Landlord has released Assignor
with respect to its obligations arising after the date hereof under the Amended
Lease to the extent assumed by Assignee. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything
contained to the contrary, the consent of Assignor shall not be required for any
further modifications of the Lease.

         15.      WAIVER OF RIGHTS. Neither any failure nor any delay on the
part of any party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any
right, power or privilege.

         16.      SEVERABILITY. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby and this Agreement shall thereupon be reformed and construed and
enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

parties hereto relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, including,
without limitation, any letter of intent or commitment letter.

         18.      COUNTERPARTS; HEADINGS. This Agreement may be executed in two

ESTABLISHING LANDLORD, A COPY OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO
(THE "DECLARATION"), IS DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND
TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDES THAT THE NAME "HPT SUITE PROPERTIES

unmodified. Landlord and Assignee hereof ratify and confirm the terms of the
Lease.

ShoLodge, ShoLodge shall simultaneously deliver to Prime by overnight courier,
to the attention of the persons set forth in paragraph 14 hereof, a copy of such
Draw Request, together with copies of the accompanying documentation required
pursuant to this paragraph 7. Escrowee may (but shall not be obligated to),
within four (4) business days of receipt of a Draw Request, request that Prime
deliver notice to Escrowee of any objection(s) to such Draw Request; provided,
however, Prime shall be deemed to have approved of a Draw Request should
Escrowee not receive from Prime within four (4) business days of Escrowee's
receipt of such Draw Request a notice from Prime setting forth Prime's
objection(s) thereto. Escrowee may assume that ShoLodge has performed in
accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this paragraph 7(f) and
made the other deliveries to Prime required hereby.

                  8.       In the event that: (i) Escrowee shall not have

(iii) any dispute shall arise as to any matter arising under this Agreement; or
(iv) there shall be any uncertainty as to the meaning or applicability of any of
the provisions hereof, Escrowee's duties, rights or responsibilities hereunder
or any written instructions received by Escrowee pursuant hereto, Escrowee may,
at its option (x) at any time thereafter, deposit the funds and/or instruments
then being held by it in escrow into any court having appropriate jurisdiction,
(y) at any time thereafter, take such affirmative steps as it may elect in order
to substitute an impartial party reasonably agreed to by Prime and ShoLodge to
hold any and all escrowed funds and/or instruments or (z) hold such funds and/or
instruments until such time as Escrowee receives written instructions signed by
Prime and ShoLodge or a court order which directs Escrowee to deliver the funds
and/or instruments to a specified person or entity, in which case Escrowee shall
comply with such written instructions (if reasonable) or court order, as
applicable, and upon making such deposit, delivery or election pursuant to this
paragraph 8, Escrowee shall thereupon be relieved of and discharged and released
from any and all liability hereunder and with respect to the escrowed funds
and/or instruments or any portion of any of them so deposited or delivered.

                  9.       Escrowee shall be entitled to assume and rely upon
the authenticity of any signature and the genuineness and/or validity of any
writing received by Escrowee pursuant to or otherwise relating to this
Agreement.

                  10.      This Agreement shall expire on the second anniversary
of the date of this Agreement (the "Expiration Date"). Without limiting any
other provisions of this Agreement, Escrowee shall charge (i) an annual fee of
$10,000 for the services to be provided pursuant to this Agreement in connection

$10,000 for the services to be provided pursuant to this Agreement in connection
with the VA Documents and the VA Deposit (the "VA Fee") and (iii) a

with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement (the "Legal Fee", and
collectively with the NJ Fee and the VA Fee, the "Escrow

                                      -8-

Fee"). Should (a) VA Documents and the balance of the VA Deposit or (b) the NJ
Documents and the balance of the NJ Deposit be released by Escrowee prior to the
Expiration Date, Escrowee shall promptly return to ShoLodge the pro rata balance
of the NJ Fee or the VA Fee, as applicable; and should this Agreement otherwise
terminate for any reason prior to the Expiration Date, Escrowee shall promptly
return to ShoLodge the pro rata balance of the VA Fee and the NJ Fee for the
applicable year. Each Escrow Party recognizes and acknowledges that Escrowee
shall not be liable to either of such parties for any error of judgment, mistake
or act or omission hereunder or any matter or thing arising out of its conduct
hereunder, except for Escrowee's willful misfeasance or gross negligence.
Escrowee acknowledges the receipt of $25,000, representing (i) the Legal Fee and
(ii) for the first year of this Agreement, the NJ Fee and the VA Fee. The Escrow
Fee for the second year of this Agreement shall be due upon the first
anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

                  11.      Subject to Escrowee's obligation to return the VA Fee
and the NJ Fee as provided in paragraph 10, Escrowee shall have the right to
resign upon thirty one (31) days written notice to Prime and ShoLodge (a
"Resignation Notice"). Within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Resignation
Notice, ShoLodge and Prime shall deliver a notice to Escrowee designating a new
escrowee and Escrowee shall deliver the Escrowed Documents and the balance of
the Deposit to such new escrowee within one (1) business day of such notice.
Should Escrowee not receive such notice within such thirty (30) day period,
Escrowee may designate a bank which is a member of the New York Clearing House
and which has a net worth in excess of One Hundred Million Dollars
($100,000,000) to serve as escrowee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In
lieu of returning the unearned Escrow Fee, Escrowee may pay the same over to the
new Escrowee.

                  12.      In addition to the fee paid pursuant to paragraph 10,
each Escrow Party jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Escrowee from and against any and all costs, claims, damages or expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
whether paid to retained attorneys or representing the fair value of legal
services rendered to itself) howsoever occasioned that may be incurred by
Escrowee acting under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any costs
incurred by Escrowee pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof) or to which Escrowee may be
put in connection with Escrowee acting under this Agreement, except for costs,
claims or damages to the extent arising out of Escrowee's willful misfeasance or
gross negligence. Escrowee may charge against the Invested Cash Deposit any
amounts owed it under the foregoing indemnity or may withhold payment of the
escrowed funds as security for any unliquidated claim, or both.

                  13.      If any Escrow Party is comprised of more than one
party, each such party comprising such Escrow Party shall be jointly and
severally liable for the obligations of such Escrow Party hereunder.

hereof, all notices, certificates and other communications permitted hereunder

                  in the vicinity of the Development Property) in an amount
                  reasonably satisfactory to Investor;

                  (vi)     Worker's compensation and employer's liability
                  insurance subject to the statutory limits in respect of any
                  work or other operations on, about or in connection with the
                  Development Property.

         (b)      Developer may effect coverage under Section 8.7(a) under a
blanket insurance policy reasonably satisfactory to Investor, provided that: (i)
any such policy of blanket insurance shall specify therein, or the insurer under
such policy shall certify to Investor, (A) the maximum amount of the total
insurance afforded by the blanket policy applicable to the Development Assets
and (B) any sublimits in such blanket policy applicable to the Development
Assets, which amounts shall not be less than the amount required pursuant to
Section 8.7(a); (ii) any such policy of blanket insurance shall comply in all
respects with the other provisions of Section 8.7(a); and (iii) the protection
afforded under any policy of blanket insurance shall be no less than that which
would have been afforded under a separate policy or policies relating only to
the Development Assets.

         (c)      All insurance maintained by Developer hereunder shall provide
that: (i) no cancellation, material change or reduction thereof shall be
effective until at least thirty (30) days after receipt by Investor of notice
thereof; (ii) all losses shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence
of Developer or its agents or employees which might, absent such agreement,
result in a forfeiture of all or part of such insurance payment and (iii) shall
name Investor as an additional insured party and loss payee.

         (d)      Developer shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to
Investor, without notice or demand by Investor, not later than ten (10) days
prior to the expiration date of each policy required to be maintained by
Developer hereunder, an insurance certificate or certificates executed by the
insurer or its authorized agent evidencing the insurance maintained under such
policy, and reasonably satisfactory to Investor of payment of the premium
therefor. As soon as reasonably practicable after the commencement or renewal,
as applicable, of the term thereof (but in no event later than ten (10) days
after receipt by Developer), Developer shall provide Investor with a copy of any
such policy (and endorsements thereto) maintained by Developer verified (if
available at no material cost to Developer) to be a true copy by the insurer or
its authorized agent.

                                   SECTION 9
                                 APPORTIONMENTS

         9.1      REAL PROPERTY APPORTIONMENTS. Representatives of Investor and
the Developer Parties shall perform any and all of the adjustments and
apportionments which are appropriate and usual for a transaction of this nature
and taking into account the simultaneous execution of the amendment to the Lease
contemplated hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the
extent that amounts expended from the FF&E Reserve (as defined in the Lease)
with respect to the Existing Assets exceeds amounts contributed to such FF&E
Reserve attributable to the Existing Assets, the Developer shall transfer by
wire transfer of immediately available funds such excess into the FF&E Reserve
at the Closing. To the extent that the amounts in the FF&E Reserve attributable
to the Existing Assets exceeds the amounts expended

                                      -19-
<PAGE>   108

from the FF&E Reserve with respect to the Existing Assets, Investor shall
authorize the Tenant at the Closing to release such excess to Developer or as
the Developer may direct. The adjustments hereunder shall be calculated or paid
in an amount based upon a fair and reasonable estimated accounting performed and
agreed to by representatives of the Developer Parties and Investor at or prior
to the Closing. Subsequent final adjustments and payments shall be made in cash
or other immediately available funds as soon as practicable after the Closing
Date and in any event within ninety (90) days after such Closing Date, based
upon an agreed accounting performed by representatives of the Developer Parties
and Investor. In the event the parties have not agreed with respect to the
adjustments required to be made pursuant to this Section 9.1 within such
ninety-day period, upon application by either party, Ernst & Young LLP or other
certified public accountants reasonably acceptable to Investor and the Developer
Parties shall determine any such adjustments which have not theretofore been
agreed to between the Developer Parties and Investor. The charges of such
accountant shall be borne by the Developer Parties.

         9.2      CLOSING COSTS. The Developer Parties shall pay all costs and
expenses associated with the transactions contemplated hereby, including,
without limitation, recording costs, title insurance premiums, the costs and
expenses of preparing engineering and environmental reports, market studies and
appraisals and the reasonable costs and expenses of legal counsel retained by
Investor.

         The obligations of the parties under this Section 9 shall survive the
Closing.

                                   SECTION 10
                                     DEFAULT

         10.1     DEFAULT BY THE DEVELOPER PARTIES. (a) Events of Default. Any
of the following shall constitute a default under this Agreement (each, an
"Event of Default") on the part of Developer:

                  (i)      any representation or warranty of the Developer
                  Parties contained here in or made in connection herewith shall
                  have been or become untrue, incorrect or misleading in any
                  material respect; or

                  (ii)     a failure by the Developer Parties to timely perform
                  or observe their obligations (A) under Sections 2.3, 2.4 or
                  2.5 above or (B) which pursuant to the terms hereof are to be
                  performed on or before the Closing Date; or

                  (iii)    failure by any of the Developer Parties to perform or
                  observe any of their covenants under this Agreement (other
                  than such failures as are otherwise referred to in this
                  Section 10.1(a)) which failure continues unremedied for thirty
                  (30) days after notice thereof by Investor to Developer
                  requiring the same to be remedied; provided, however, that it
                  shall not be an event of default on the part of Developer if
                  such failure is curable but is not reasonably capable of being
                  cured within such thirty (30) day period provided that the
                  Developer shall have commenced to cure such failure within
                  such 30-day period and thereafter shall diligently pursue such

                                      -20-
<PAGE>   109

                  cure to completion, but in no event later than 90 days after
                  the date on which the Developer received such notice from
                  Investor; or

                  (iv)     an order (that has not been vacated or stayed within
                  60 days from the entry thereof) is made for, or the members,
                  directors or the stockholders of Developer, Prime or ShoLodge
                  take any action with regard to, the winding up of any of the
                  Developer Parties, except a winding up for the purpose of a
                  merger, restructuring or contribution, the terms of which have
                  previously been consented to by Investor; or

                  (v)      any of the Developer Parties shall commence any
                  action (A) under any existing or future law of any
                  jurisdiction, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy,
                  insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors seeking to
                  have an order for relief entered with respect to it, or
                  seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking
                  reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, winding-up,
                  liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with
                  respect to it or its debts, or (B) seeking appointment of a
                  receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it
                  or for all or substantially all of its assets; or

                  (vi)     any of the Developer Parties shall make a general
                  assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

                  (vii)    there shall be commenced against any of the Developer
                  Parties any action of a nature referred to in clause (v) above
                  which (A) results in the entry of any order for relief or any
                  such adjudication or appointment and (B) remains undismissed,
                  undischarged or unbonded for a period of 120 days; or

                  (viii)   there shall be commenced against any of the Developer
                  Parties any action seeking issuance of a warrant of
                  attachment, execution, distraint or similar process against
                  all or substantially all of its assets which results in the
                  entry of an order for any such relief that shall not have been
                  vacated, discharged, stayed, satisfied or bonded pending
                  appeal within 120 days from the entry thereof; or

                  (ix)     any of the Developer Parties shall generally not, or
                  shall be unable to, or shall admit in writing its inability
                  to, pay its debts as they become due; or

                  (x)      the Completion Date not occurring on or prior to the
                  Outside Date; or

                  (xi)     the failure by Developer to consummate the within
                  exchange on the Closing Date as required hereby or to keep and
                  observe the terms of Section 11.6; or

                  (xii)    if any survey required or requested by Investor
                  pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shows any
                  material condition not approved by Investor, and such material
                  condition is not removed on or before the Review Period
                  Expiration Date; or

                                      -21-
<PAGE>   110

                  (xiii)   if construction of the Project in the reasonable
                  judgment of the Investor is not carried on with reasonable
                  diligence, or if Investor reasonably concludes that the
                  Project cannot be completed by the Outside Date (whether as a
                  result of damage by fire or other casualty or for any other
                  reason) because construction of the Project is suspended for a
                  period of thirty (30) consecutive days or otherwise.

         (b)      Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Investor may
terminate this Agreement and/or Investor may pursue any and all remedies
available to it hereunder, under the Lease, under the Incidental Documents, at
law or in equity, including, but not limited to, a suit for specific performance
or other equitable relief.

         10.2     DEFAULT BY INVESTOR. If Investor shall have made any
representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in any
material respect, or if Investor shall fail to perform any of the covenants and
agreements contained herein to be performed by it and such failure shall
continue for a period of ten (10) days after notice thereof from the Developer
Parties and such default shall continue beyond the expiration of any applicable
cure period, the Developer Parties may, as their sole and exclusive remedy at
law and in equity, terminate this Agreement.

                                   SECTION 11
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         11.1     AGREEMENT TO INDEMNIFY. (a) Subject to any express provisions
of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Developer Parties shall indemnify and
hold harmless Investor from and against any and all obligations, claims, losses,
damages, liabilities, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' and accountants' fees and disbursements) arising out of (x) events,
contractual obligations, acts or omissions of the Developer Parties that
occurred in connection with the ownership or operation of the Development Assets
prior to the Closing or (y) any damage to property of others or injury to or
death of any person or any claims for any debts or obligations occurring on or
about or in connection with any of the Development Assets or any portion thereof
at any time or times prior to the Closing.

         (b)      Whenever either party shall learn through the filing of a
claim or the commencement of a proceeding or otherwise of the existence of any
liability for which the other party is or may be responsible under this
Agreement, the party learning of such liability shall notify the other party
promptly and furnish such copies of documents (and make originals thereof
available) and such other information as such party may have that may be used or
useful in the defense of such claims and shall afford said other party full
opportunity to defend the same in the name of such party and shall generally
cooperate with said other party in the defense of any such claim.

         (c)      The provisions of this Section 11.1 shall survive the Closing
and the termination of this Agreement.

         11.2     BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Each of the parties hereto represents
to the other parties that it dealt with no broker, finder or like agent in
connection with this Agreement or the

                                      -22-

transactions contemplated hereby. Each party shall indemnify and hold harmless
the other and its respective legal representatives, heirs, successors and
assigns from and against any loss, liability or expense, including, reasonable
attorneys' fees, arising out of any claim or claims for commissions or other
compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby made by any broker, finder or like agent claiming to have dealt with the
indemnifying party. The provisions of this Section 11.2 shall survive the
Closing and any termination of this Agreement.

         11.3     PUBLICITY. The parties agree that no party shall, with respect
to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, contact or conduct
negotiations with public officials, make any public pronouncements, issue press
releases or otherwise furnish information regarding this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated to any third party without the consent of the other
parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned, except as required by law or unless such action is taken based on
advice of counsel given in good faith. No party, or its employees shall trade in
the securities of any parent or affiliate of Developer or of Investor until a
public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been
made. No party shall record this Agreement or any notice thereof, except as
required by law or unless such action is taken based on advice of counsel given
in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the sole cost and expense of
Developer, the parties shall execute a memorandum hereof in recordable form
containing such information as Investor shall determine and cause the same to be
recorded against the Development Property.

         11.4     NOTICES. (a) Any and all notices, demands, consents,

         (d)      By notice given as herein provided, the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns shall have the right from time to time
and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective
addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such notice and each
shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the
United States of America.

         11.5     WAIVERS, ETC. Any waiver of any term or condition of this
Agreement, or of the breach of any covenant, representation or warranty
contained herein, in any one instance, shall not operate as or be deemed to be
or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other breach of such term,
condition, covenant, representation or warranty or any other term, condition,
covenant, representation or warranty, nor shall any failure at any time or times
to enforce or require performance of any provision hereof operate as a waiver of
or affect in any manner such party's right at a later time to enforce or require
performance of such provision or any other provision hereof. This Agreement may
not be amended, nor shall any waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge
be effected, except by an instrument in writing executed by or on behalf of the
party against whom enforcement of any amendment, waiver, change, modification,
consent or discharge is sought.

         11.6     ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement and all
rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party without
the written consent of the other parties, except that (a) Investor may assign
this Agreement to an affiliate of Investor, (b) after the Closing, Developer may
assign its surviving rights, if any, under this Agreement pertaining to the
Development Assets to the Tenant and (c) if Prime is not one of the Developer
Parties, Developer may assign this Agreement to Prime, provided that upon such
assignment becoming effective (i) Prime is the then owner of the Development
Property and (ii) Prime shall have (x) assumed all of Developer's obligations
hereunder, (y) given notice of such assignment to Investor and (z) entered into
such assumption agreements as Investor shall reasonably require. This Agreement
shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This
Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any rights in or
to be enforceable in any part by any other persons. Prior to the Closing,
Developer shall not sell, assign, lease or otherwise transfer all or any
substantial part of the Development Property unless this Agreement is assigned
to the purchaser, assignee, tenant or other transferee in accordance with its
terms.

         11.7     SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as
applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions, or in all
jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the conflict of any provision with any
constitution or statute or rule of public policy or for any other reason, such
circumstance shall not have the effect of rendering the provision or provisions
in question invalid, inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or
in any other case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or
provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent
that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with such
constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement shall be
reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if such invalid,
inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein and such
provision reformed so that it

                                      -25-
<PAGE>   114

would be valid, operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in
such jurisdiction or in such case. If under any applicable law any option or
right provided for under the terms and provisions of this Agreement would
(absent the provisions of this Section 11.7) be void, voidable or unenforceable
(under the so-called "Rule Against Perpetuities" or any comparable rule of law,
statute or constitutional provision) by reason of the fact that, under the other
terms and provisions of this Agreement, such option will continue in effect
beyond, or might be exercised at a time after the expiration of, a fixed period
of years in excess of 21 years (or such other number of years as may be
proscribed by such rule of law, statute or constitutional provision) after the
date hereof, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, such option or election shall not continue in effect beyond, and may
not be exercised at any time after, (a) the date that is 21 years after the date
of death of the last to survive of the living individuals who are members on the
date hereof of the law firms of Sullivan & Worcester LLP, Boult Cummings Conners
& Berry, PLC and Willkie Farr & Gallagher and the descendants who are living on
the date hereof of such individuals or (b) such earlier date after which such
option cannot in any lawful manner whatsoever be validly continued in effect or
exercised.

         11.8     COUNTERPARTS, ETC. This Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the place of any other
instruments purporting to be an agreement of the parties hereto relating to the
subject matter hereof.

         11.9     GOVERNING LAW. (a) This Agreement shall be interpreted,
construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts applicable to contracts between residents of Massachusetts
which are to be performed entirely within Massachusetts, regardless of (i) where
this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or other
performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or (iii)
where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause of
action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is
instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal
place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any
party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply
the laws of a jurisdiction other than The Commonwealth of Massachusetts; or
(vii) any combination of the foregoing.

         (b)      To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any action
