 CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of the 23 day of August, 2004 (the “Effective Date”) by and
among the entities identified on Schedule 1 attached hereto (each a “Contributor” and collectively, the “Contributors”), and MHI Hospitality LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Acquiror”). 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 A. Savannah Hotel Associates LLC (the “Company”) is the owner of certain real property consisting of approximately
1.03 acres of land located in Savannah, Georgia (the “Property”), and the hotel improvements located thereon consisting of 246 room hotel trading as the Hilton De Soto (the “Hotel”); 
  
 B. Contributors are the record and beneficial owners of 100% of the ownership
interests of the Company (the “Contributed Assets”). The Contributors desire to contribute the Contributed Assets to the Acquiror, and the Acquiror desires to acquire the Contributed Assets from the Contributor, on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth; and 
  
 C. The Acquiror will be the
operating partnership of a Maryland corporation to be formed which will seek to qualify as a real estate investment trust for Federal income tax purposes (the “REIT”) and will seek to complete an underwritten public offering of shares of
its common stock (the “IPO”). The Contributors intend to contribute the Contributed Assets to the Acquiror in connection with the closing of the IPO. 
  

AGREEMENT 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I 
  
 THE CONTRIBUTION 
  
 1.1 Contribution of Contributed Assets. The Contributors agree to
contribute and transfer the Contributed Assets to the Acquiror, and the Acquiror agrees to accept transfer of the Contributed Assets pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The 

 Contributed Assets shall be transferred to the Acquiror free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests,
prior assignments or conveyances, conditions, restrictions, claims, and other matters affecting title thereto. 
  
 1.2 Consideration. In exchange for the contribution and transfer by the Contributors of the Contributed Assets to the Acquiror, the Acquiror
agrees, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to issue to the Contributors 1,665,494 units in the aggregate of limited partnership interests in the Acquiror (the “Units”). The number of Units to be issued to each Contributor is set forth
in Schedule 1 attached hereto. 
  
 1.3 Issuance of Units.
On the Closing Date (as defined below), the Acquiror shall issue to the Contributors certificates reflecting the Units in such amount as specified in Schedule 1. Such certificates shall bear appropriate legends indicating (i) that the Units have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and (ii) that the Acquiror’s agreement of limited partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) will restrict the transfer of the Units.
Immediately upon receipt of the Units, each Contributor shall accede to the Partnership Agreement as a limited partner of the Acquiror. Each Contributor acknowledges and agrees that once Closing occurs, the Contributor shall no longer be a member of
the Company, shall no longer be entitled to receive any distributions from the Company, and shall have no further right, title or interest in the Company. 
  
 1.4 Adjustment. The term “Purchased Working Capital” shall mean the agreed upon sum of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) which
amount represents the Company’s good faith estimate of the Company’s current assets shown on the Hotel balance sheet (exclusive of any FF&E Reserves) less the Company’s current liabilities shown on the Hotel balance sheet at the
close of business on the Closing Date. The Contributors shall be permitted an opportunity to review the books and records of the Company prior to the Closing Date (and for sixty (60) days thereafter) to verify the calculation of Purchased Working
Capital and all other working capital as of the Closing Date. Within such sixty (60) day period, the parties hereto agree to calculate actual working capital as of the Closing Date (including any amounts in any escrow or reserve accounts as of the
Closing Date). In the event that actual working capital at Closing is more or less than the Purchased Working Capital, then the Contributors shall pay to the Acquiror an amount equal to the amount by which actual working capital as of the Closing
Date is less than the Purchased Working Capital, and the Acquiror will pay to the Contributors an amount equal to the amount by which actual working capital as of the Closing Date exceeds the Purchased Working Capital. Any such amount payable by the
Acquiror to the Contributors shall be allocated among the Contributors in proportion to the number of Units issuable to each Contributor pursuant to Schedule 1 hereof. Each Contributor shall bear its pro rata portion of any amount payable by the
Contributors to the Acquiror on the basis of the number of Units issuable to each Contributor hereunder. Each Contributor (by its execution hereof) hereby acknowledges and agrees any such adjustments shall be paid in cash to the party entitled
thereto, and such adjustments shall be deemed final. Payment, if any, shall be made within 15 days of calculating working capital as of the Closing Date. 
  

 2 

 1.5 Deposit. Within five (5) business days after the full execution of this Agreement, the
Acquiror shall pay to each Contributor the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) (the “Deposit”) as consideration for such Contributor entering into this Agreement. The Deposit shall be deemed earned and non-refundable immediately upon payment of
the Deposit (except if the Contributor defaults hereunder, in which event the Deposit shall be promptly refunded to the Acquiror). 
  
 1.6 Redemption Rights for Units. The Units shall be redeemable at the option of the holders of such Units and in accordance with, but subject to
the restrictions contained in, the Partnership Agreement; provided, however, that such redemption option may not be exercised prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date. 
  
 1.7 Tax Consequences to Contributors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including
without limitation the use of words and phrases such as “sell,” “sale,” “purchase,” and “pay,” the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that the contribution transaction contemplated
hereby with respect to the Contributed Assets shall be treated for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as the contribution of the Contributed Assets by the
Contributors to the Acquiror, in exchange for the Units, the Deposit and any payments made by Acquiror pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 4.4, and not as a transaction in which any Contributor is acting other than in its capacity as a prospective
partner in the Acquiror. 
  
 1.8 Tax Indemnity. In
conjunction with the contributions contemplated by this Article I, each Contributor will execute and deliver the Tax Indemnity (as defined hereinafter) in the form attached as Exhibit 1.8.

and has not been modified or amended and a true and accurate copy of such agreement as amended to date has been provided to Acquiror. The Contributor has performed all of its obligations under the Operating Agreement. 
  
 (h) Securities Law Matters. (A) In acquiring the Units and engaging in
this transaction, neither the Contributors nor any member of a Contributor is relying upon any representations made to it by the Acquiror, or any of its partners, officers, employees, or agents that are not contained herein. Contributor is aware of
the risks involved in investing in the 
  

 6 

 Units and in the shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the REIT, issuable upon redemption of such Units.
Contributor has had an opportunity to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Acquiror or a person or persons authorized to act on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of this investment and the financial condition, affairs,
and business of the Acquiror and the REIT. Contributor confirms that all documents, records, and information pertaining to its investment in the Acquiror that have been requested by it, including a complete copy of the form of the Partnership
Agreement, have been made available or delivered to it prior to the date hereof. Contributor represents and warrants that it has reviewed and approved the form of the Partnership Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
  
 (B) Contributor and each member thereof understands that neither the Units
nor the shares of Common Stock issuable upon redemption of the Units have been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities acts and are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such registration requirements.
The Units issuable to Contributor are being acquired solely for its own account, for investment, and are not being acquired with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, subdivision, or fractionalization thereof, in violation
of such laws, and Contributor does not have any present intention to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with respect to any such resale; provided, however, that, at or following Closing, Contributor may distribute the
Units to its members that (1) have represented and warranted to the Acquiror in writing that, as of the time of such distribution, such member is an accredited investor as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act,
and (2) have executed the Partnership Agreement as limited partners. Contributor understands that any certificates evidencing the Units will contain appropriate legends reflecting the requirement that the Units not be resold by Contributor without
registration under such laws or the availability of an exemption from such registration and that the Partnership Agreement will restrict transfer of the Units. 
  

(i) Accredited Investor. Contributor is an accredited investor as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

  
 (j) Tax Matters. (A) The Company has filed within the
time and in the manner prescribed by law all material federal, state, and local tax returns and reports, including but not limited to income, gross receipts, intangible, real property, excise, withholding, franchise, sales, use, employment, personal
property, and other tax returns and reports, required to be filed by such entity under the laws of the United States and of each state or other jurisdiction in which such entity conducts business activities requiring the filing of tax returns or
reports except for such returns or reports where the failure to file would not have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Contributed Assets. All tax returns and reports filed by the Company are true and correct in all material respects.
The Company has paid in full all taxes of whatever kind or nature for the periods covered by such returns. The Company has not been delinquent in the payment of any tax, assessment, or governmental charge or deposit and has no tax deficiency or
claim outstanding, assessed, threatened, or proposed against it. The 
  

 7 

 charges, accruals, and reserves for unpaid taxes on the books and records of the Company as of the Closing Date are
sufficient in all respects for the payment of all unpaid federal, state, and local taxes of the Company accrued for or applicable to all periods ended on or before the Closing Date. There are no tax liens, whether imposed by the United States, any
state, local, or other taxing authority, outstanding against the Company or any of its assets. The federal, state, and local tax returns of the Company have not been audited, nor has the Company received any notice of any federal, state, or local
audit. 
  
 (B) Each Contributor represents and warrants that it
has obtained from its own counsel advice regarding the tax consequences of (i) the transfer of the Contributor’s Assets to the Acquiror and the receipt of Units as consideration therefor, (ii) Contributor’s admission as a limited partner
of the Acquiror, and (iii) any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Each Contributor further represents and warrants that it has not relied on the Acquiror or the Acquiror’s representatives or counsel for such tax advice.

  
 (k) Bankruptcy with respect to Contributor. No Act of
Bankruptcy has occurred with respect to the Contributor or the Company. As used herein, “Act of Bankruptcy” shall mean if a party hereto or any member or manager thereof shall (A) apply for or consent to the appointment of, or the taking
of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (B) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, (C) make a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, (D) file a voluntary petition or commence a voluntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), (E) be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, (F) file a petition seeking to take advantage of any
other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, dissolution, winding-up or composition or adjustment of debts, (G) fail to controvert in a timely and appropriate manner, or acquiesce in writing to, any petition filed
against it in an involuntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), or (H) take any entity action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing. 
  
 (l) Brokerage Commission. The Contributor has not engaged the services
of, any real estate agent, broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or finder’s fee, commission or other amount with respect to the transactions described herein on account of any action by the Contributor. The Contributor
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Acquiror and its employees, directors, members, partners, affiliates and agents harmless against any claims, liabilities, damages or expenses arising out of a breach of the foregoing. This indemnification
shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. 
  
 (m) Liabilities, Indebtedness. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.2(m), the Company has not incurred any indebtedness related to the Hotel or the Property except in each instance for trade payables and other customary and ordinary
expenses in the normal course of business. 
  

 8 

 (n) Leases. Schedule 2.2(n) attached hereto is a true, correct and complete schedule of all
ground leases, restaurant leases, subleases and other rights of occupancy in effect with respect to the Hotel and the Property (collectively, the “Leases”). Except as set forth on Schedule 2.2(n), there are no other leases, subleases,
tenancies or other rights of occupancy in effect with respect to the Hotel or the Property. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.2(n), all such Leases are valid and enforceable and presently in full force and effect, and none of the Leases have been
assigned and all brokerage commissions, if any, payable under any of the Leases have been paid or will be paid by the Company, prior to the Closing. To the best knowledge of Contributor, no party to any Lease is in default under such Lease, and
Contributor does not know of any event which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default under such Leases, except such defaults that would not have a material adverse effect on the condition, financial
or otherwise or on the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company. No tenant under any of the Leases has an option or right of first refusal to purchase the premises demised under such Lease. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement will not give rise to any breach, default or event of default under any of the Leases. None of the Leases requires the consent or approval of any party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. 
  
 (o) Insurance. The Company currently
maintains or causes to be maintained all of the public liability, casualty and other insurance coverage with respect to the Hotel as set forth on Schedule 2.2(o) attached hereto. All such insurance coverage shall be maintained in full force and
effect through the Closing and all premiums due and payable thereunder have been, and shall be, fully paid when due. 
  
 (p) Personal Property. All equipment, fixtures and personal property located at the Hotel shall remain and not be removed prior to the Closing,
except for equipment that becomes obsolete or unusable, which may be disposed of or replaced in the ordinary course of business.

Acquiror which are listed on Schedule 2.2(q) attached hereto (collectively, “Environmental Reports”), to the best of Contributors’ knowledge, information and belief, the Property (which for purposes of this Section 2.2(q) shall

governmental or quasi-governmental agency or authority with jurisdiction over any Environmental Law. 
  
 (r) Compliance With Laws. To the best of Contributors’ knowledge, information, and belief, the Company possesses such certificates, approvals,
licenses, authorities or permits issued by the appropriate local, state or federal agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business to be conducted by it, and, to the knowledge of Contributor, the Company has not received any written notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, approval, license, authority or permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling, or finding, would materially and adversely

 5.10 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for

unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
  
 5.11
Confidentiality. The Contributor acknowledges that the matters relating to the REIT, the initial underwritten public offering of the REIT, this Agreement, and the other documents, terms, conditions and information related thereto
(collectively, the “Information”) are confidential in nature. Therefore, each Contributor covenants and agrees to keep the Information confidential and will not (except as required by applicable law, regulation or legal process, and only
after compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.11), without the Acquiror’s prior written consent, disclose any Information in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that the Information may be revealed only to a Contributor’s
key employees, legal counsel and financial advisors, each of whom shall be informed of the confidential nature of the Information and shall agree to act in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.11. In the event that a Contributor or its key
employees, legal counsel or financial advisors (collectively, the “Information Group”) are requested pursuant to, or required by, applicable law, regulation or legal process to disclose any of the Information, the applicable member of the
Information Group will notify the Acquiror promptly so that it may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or, in its sole discretion, waive compliance with the terms of this Section 5.11. In the event that no such protective order or
other remedy is obtained, or that the Acquiror waives compliance with the terms of this Section 5.11, the applicable member of the Information Group may furnish only that portion of the Information which it is advised by counsel is legally required
and will exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Information. Each Contributor acknowledges that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect the Acquiror or the REIT against any
actual or threatened breach of this Section 5.11, and, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies otherwise available, each Contributor agrees to the granting of injunctive relief in favor of the REIT and/or the Acquiror without proof of
actual damages. Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that each of them and each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose to any and all persons,
without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except
to the extent that confidentiality is reasonably necessary to comply with U.S. federal or state securities laws. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “tax treatment” and “tax structure” have the meanings specified in
Treasury Regulation section 1.6011-4(c). Receipt of confidential information of Acquiror or any of its affiliates by Contributors constitutes each of Contributor’s acknowledgement that it is aware that applicable securities laws may impose
restrictions on each of them from purchasing or selling securities of the 
  

 20 

 REIT, and each Contributor agrees not to purchase or sell securities of the REIT, or any affiliate of the REIT, in
violation of applicable securities laws.

Transferees to be less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate Units issued to the Contributor pursuant to the Contribution Agreement.

 Section 2. Damages. 

 
 (a) The REIT and the Operating Partnership, jointly and severally, agree
to pay to a Protected Person, in accordance with Section 2(b) below, an amount equal to the Damages incurred by a Protected Person as a result of the occurrence of the following events: 
  
 (i) If, during the Protected Period, there occurs a direct or indirect sale, exchange, or disposition of any Property or any
interest therein by the Operating Partnership or its subsidiaries resulting in the allocation of income or gain to such Protected Person or a Person the income of which is taxable to such Protected Person under section 704(c) of the Code; and

  

 5 

 (ii) If, during the Protected Period, the Operating Partnership fails to satisfy its obligations under
Section 3 of this Agreement and such failure causes such Protected Person to recognize taxable income or gain as a result of such failure. 
  
 Any transfer of assets of the Operating Partnership or a subsidiary thereof will be deemed a taxable disposition of such assets for their fair market values for purposes
of unless (i) such disposition qualifies as a like-kind exchange under section 1031 of the Code, or an involuntary conversion under section 1033 of the Code, or other transaction (including, but not limited to, a contribution of property to any
entity that qualifies for the nonrecognition of gain under section 721 or section 351 of the Code, or a merger or consolidation of the Operating Partnership with or into another entity that qualifies for taxation as a “partnership” for
federal income tax purposes (a “Successor Partnership”)), in each case that does not result in the recognition of any taxable income or gain to the Protected Person with respect to the Property; provided, however, that: (1) in the event of
a disposition of a Property under section 1031 or section 1033 of the Code or pursuant to another tax deferred transaction, any property that is acquired in exchange for or as a replacement for such Property shall thereafter be considered that
Property for purposes of this Agreement; (2) if a Property is transferred to another entity in a transaction in which gain or loss is not recognized, the interest of the Operating Partnership in such entity shall thereafter be considered that
Property for purposes of this Agreement, and if the acquiring entity’s disposition of such Property would cause the Protected Person to recognize gain or loss as a result thereof, the transferred Property still shall be considered that Property
for purposes of this Agreement; and (3) in the event of a merger or consolidation involving the Operating Partnership and a Successor Partnership, the Successor Partnership shall have agreed in writing for the benefit of the Protected Person that
all of the restrictions of this Agreement shall apply with respect to each Property, or (ii) with respect to each Protected Person, the adjusted taxable basis of the Property has increased in the hands of the Operating Partnership to fair market
value as a result of a taxable disposition of the Units received in the Formation Transactions or otherwise, such that a taxable disposition of such Property by the Operating Partnership would not result in the allocation of taxable gain to the
Protected Person pursuant to section 704(c) of the Code. 
  
 (b)
Within 90 days after the occurrence of any event specified in Section 2(a), the REIT or the Operating Partnership will (i) pay all Damages then due to the Protected Person and (ii) provide sufficient documentation to support the calculation of the
amounts paid. 
  
 (c) The making of a payment by the REIT or the
Operating Partnership under this Section 2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Protected Person with respect to any tax liability incurred in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 
  
 (d) Each Protected Person shall have the right to review or audit (i) records
of asset sales and disposition by the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, and (ii) the calculation of Damages pursuant to this Agreement. 
  

 6 

 (e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to permit a Protected Person to receive a
double benefit or compensation with respect to Damages. 
  
 (f)
For purposes of determining any Damages under this agreement the following will apply: 
  
 (i) Each Taxable Event will be determined solely with respect to a single Taxable Period. If a Taxable Event would otherwise result in taxable income or gain allocable to more than one Taxable Period, the taxable
income or gain allocable to each Taxable Period will be treated as arising from a separate Taxable Period and as constituting a separate Taxable Event. 
  
 (ii) The use of the term “allocation” in Section 2 shall not be limiting, thus if a Protected Person recognizes taxable income or gain with
respect to an event described in Section 2(a), such event will be a Taxable Event notwithstanding that some portion of such taxable income or gain is not subject to the profit and loss allocation provisions of any partnership agreement applicable to
the Operating Partnership or is not reported or not required to be reported on any Schedule K-1 to U.S. Form 1065 or any other federal or state tax report or return required to be filed by the Operating Partnership. 
  
 (iii) Each Taxable Event will be determined solely with respect to a single
character of income or gain. If a Taxable Event would otherwise result in items of taxable income or gain having more than one character, each item of taxable income or gain having the same character shall be treated as a separate Taxable Event.

  
 Section 3. Debt Maintenance Obligation and Guarantee Opportunity.

  
 (a) During the Protected Period, the Operating Partnership
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to each Protected Person the opportunity (a “Guarantee Opportunity”) to make, or increase from time to time, a guarantee of Qualifying Debt of the Operating Partnership pursuant
to a Guaranty Agreement in an amount not more than such Protected Person’s Maximum Guarantee Amount. During the Protected Period, if Guaranteed Debt is to be repaid and, immediately after such repayment, the outstanding amount of Guaranteed
Debt would be less than the Maximum Guarantee Amount with respect to such Guaranteed Debt, the Operating Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to each Protected Person a new Guarantee Opportunity with respect to Qualifying
Debt in an amount equal to the Guaranteed Debt being repaid. In the event that the Operating Partnership is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to offer a Guarantee Opportunity pursuant to this Section 3(a), the Operating Partnership
will provide the Protected Person notice of the type, amount and other relevant attributes of the Qualifying Debt with respect to which the Guarantee Opportunity is offered at least ten (10) business days, to the extent reasonably practicable, but
in no event less than five (5) business days prior to the earlier of the closing of the incurrence of such debt and the scheduled repayment of the existing Guaranteed Debt. In the event that the Operating Partnership or a related party repurchases
outstanding Guaranteed Debt, whether or not such debt is retired, the repurchase thereof shall be treated as a repayment of the Guaranteed Debt for purposes of this Section 3. 
  

 7 

 (b) Each Protected Person acknowledges that Guarantee Partners other than such Protected Person have the
right to guarantee debt of the Operating Partnership on terms which are similar to the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Operating Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to offer each Guarantee Opportunity to the Guarantee
Partners (including such Protected Persons) on a pro rata basis, based on the proportion of each Guarantee Partner’s Guarantee Amount to the aggregate Guarantee Amounts of all Guarantee Partners, unless the Guarantee Partners agree to accept
Guarantee Opportunities on other than a pro rata basis. 
  
 (c)
The Operating Partnership agrees to file its tax returns taking the position that the Guaranteed Debt is allocable to the Guarantor for purposes of section 752 of the Code, absent a determination to the contrary by the Internal Revenue Service.
However, the Operating Partnership makes no representation or warranty to any Guarantor, Contributor, or Protected Person that any guarantee entered into pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be respected for federal income tax purposes so as to enable the
Guarantor to be considered to bear the “economic risk of loss” with respect to the indebtedness thereby guaranteed by such Guarantor for purposes of either section 752 or section 465 of the Code. 
  
 (d) The Operating Partnership shall not be obligated to undertake efforts to
maintain any level of indebtedness in excess of the amounts specifically required to meet the obligations set forth above in this Section 3. 
  
 Section 4. Conduct of Audits and Litigation. No Protected Person shall have any right to participate in (i) any audit, conference or other proceeding with the
Internal Revenue Service or the relevant state or local authorities, or any judicial proceedings concerning the determination of the tax liability of the REIT, the Operating Partnership or any of their subsidiaries, (ii) any administrative appeals,
proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of any such proceeding or (iii) any compromise or settlement of any adjustment or deficiency proposed, asserted or assessed as a result of any such proceeding. 
  
 Section 5. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) Amendment and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be
amended or waived by a Contributor, but only as to itself or himself and not any other Contributor, if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the REIT, the Operating Partnership and the relevant Contributor.

  
 (b) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be
binding on the REIT, the Operating Partnership, the Contributors and their respective successors and assigns. If any Contributor constituting a partnership under local law distributes one or more Units to one or more of its partners, each such
partner shall be a “Contributor” for purposes of this Agreement without the necessity of any amendment of this Agreement and no consent or waiver of the REIT, the Operating Partnership or any other Contributor shall be required.

  
 (c) Severability. Should any clause, sentence,
paragraph, subsection or Section of this Agreement be judicially declared to be invalid, unenforceable or void, such decision will not 
  

 8 

 have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of this Agreement, and the part or parts of this Agreement so
held to be invalid, unenforceable or void will be deemed to have been stricken herefrom, and the remainder will have the same force and effectiveness as if such stricken part or parts had never been included herein. 
  
 (d) Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth all of the covenants,
agreements, conditions, understandings, warranties and representations of the REIT, the Operating 
  
 Partnership and the Contributors relative to the subject matter hereof, and any previous agreement among such parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland. 
  
 IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has executed this Tax Indemnity and Debt Maintenance Agreement, or caused this Tax Indemnity and Debt Maintenance Agreement to be duly executed on its behalf, as of the date first above written.

 GUARANTY 
  
 This GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is executed as of August     , 2004, by
                            , a
                             (“Guarantor”), in favor of
                            , a
                             (“Lender”), with reference to the following facts:

  
 Lender has made a loan (the “Loan”) to
                            , a
                            , (“Borrower”) evidenced by that certain Promissory Note
(the “Note”), dated             , in favor of the Lender in the original amount of
                            
($            ). The Note is secured by, among other things, a [Deed of Trust] [Mortgage] (the “Deed of Trust”) [an Assignment of Leases (the “Assignment of
Leases”). The Deed of Trust encumbers a fee estate in certain real property located in
                            , and certain personal property defined therein as the
“Property.” 
  
 A G R E E M E N T 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees, in favor of Lender, as follows: 
  
 1. Definitions and Construction. 
  
 (a) Definitions. The following terms, as used in this Guaranty, shall have the following meanings: (i) ”Bankruptcy Code” means the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C.), as amended or supplemented
from time to time, and any successor statute, and any and all rules issued or promulgated in connection therewith; and (ii) ”Guaranteed Obligations” means any and all obligations, indebtedness, or liabilities of any kind or character owed
by Borrower to Lender pursuant to Section 2 below. 
  
 (b)
Construction. Unless the context of this Guaranty clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, and the term “including” is not limiting. The words
“hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and other similar terms refer to
this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Guaranty. Any reference herein to any of the Loan Documents (as defined in the Deed of Trust) includes any and all alterations, amendments, extensions, modifications, renewals, or
supplements thereto or thereof, as applicable. Neither this Guaranty nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against Lender or Guarantor, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this
Guaranty has been reviewed by Guarantor, Lender, and their respective counsel, and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of Lender and Guarantor.

  
 2. Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Lender, as and for Guarantor’s own debt, until final and indefeasible payment thereof has been made, payment of the Secured Indebtedness (as defined in the Deed of Trust), subject to the following
limitations: (a) this Guaranty is and shall be construed to be a guaranty of collection only and not of payment and performance and is therefore conditioned and contingent upon Lender taking all prior actions or proceedings of any 
  

 - 1 - 

 kind available to Lender under the Loan Documents to enforce the Loan Documents or any of them, including without
limitation, the foreclosure of the security, Lender may at any time hold pursuant to the Loan Documents; and (b) the maximum amount of Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be an amount equal to
                            
($            ) minus the fair market value of the Property. 
  
 3. Performance Under This Guaranty. In the event that Guarantor becomes liable for any Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to Section 2 above,
Guarantor immediately shall cause such payment to be made. 
  
 4. Primary Obligations. This Guaranty is a primary and original obligation of Guarantor, is not merely the creation of a surety relationship, and shall remain in full force and effect without respect to future changes in
conditions, including any change of law or any invalidity or irregularity with respect to the issuance of the Loan Documents. Each person executing this Guaranty as Guarantor agrees that it is directly and severally (but not jointly) with any and
all other guarantors of the Guaranteed Obligations, liable to Lender, that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower or any other guarantor, and that a separate action may be brought against each person
signing as Guarantor whether such action is brought against Borrower or any other guarantor or whether Borrower or any such other guarantor is joined in such action. Guarantor agrees that any release which may be given by Lender to Borrower or any
other guarantor shall not release Guarantor. Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets of Borrower or any other guarantor in favor of Guarantor, or against or in payment of any or all of the
Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 5. Waivers. 

 
 (a) Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly
waives: 
  
 (i) (A) Notice of acceptance hereof; (B) notice of
any loans or other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan Documents or the creation or existence of any Guaranteed Obligations; (C) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of Borrower or of any other fact that might
increase Guarantor’s risk hereunder; (D) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any promissory notes or other instruments among the Loan Documents; (E) notice of any event of default under the Loan
Documents; and (F) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically, required to be given to Guarantor
hereunder or under any Loan Document to which Guarantor is a party) and demands to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled. 
  
 (ii) Except as provided in Section 2, Guarantor’s right by statute or otherwise to require Lender to institute suit against Borrower or to exhaust
any rights and remedies which Lender has or may have against Borrower or any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations provided by Borrower, Guarantor or any third party. In this regard, Guarantor agrees that it is bound to the payment of all
Guaranteed Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter accruing, as fully as if such Guaranteed Obligations were directly owing to Lender by Guarantor. Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability 
  

 - 2 - 

 or other defense (other than the defense that the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and
indefeasibly paid) of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower in respect thereof. 
  
 (iii) (A) Any rights to assert against Lender any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim, or claim which Guarantor may now or at any time
hereafter have against Borrower or any other party liable to Lender; (B) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or
enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; (C) any defense Guarantor has to performance hereunder, and any right Guarantor has to be exonerated, or otherwise, arising by reason of: the impairment or suspension of
Lender’s rights or remedies against Borrower; the alteration by Lender of the Guaranteed Obligations; any discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations by operation of law as a result of Lender’s intervention or omission; or the acceptance by
Lender of anything in partial satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations; (D) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall defer or delay the operation
of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder. 
  
 (b) Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives
any defense arising by reason of or deriving from (i) any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender; or (ii) any election by Lender under Bankruptcy Code Section 1111(b) to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its
claim against Borrower: 
  
 Guarantor waives all rights and
defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against Borrower. 
  
 Guarantor waives all rights
and defenses that Guarantor may have because some of the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by real property. This means, among other things, that if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower for the Guaranteed
Obligations: (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (B) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender,
by foreclosing on the real property collateral pledged by Borrower for the Guaranteed Obligations, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. 
  
 This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt
is secured by real property. 
  
 If any of the Guaranteed
Obligations at any time are secured by a mortgage or deed of trust upon real property, Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, upon a default with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, to foreclose such mortgage or deed of trust judicially or
nonjudicially in any manner permitted by law, before or after enforcing the Loan Documents, without diminishing or affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations are repaid with the proceeds of such
foreclosure. Guarantor 
  

 - 3 - 

 understands that (a) by virtue of the operation of any antideficiency law applicable to nonjudicial foreclosures, an
election by Lender nonjudicially to foreclose such a mortgage or deed of trust probably would have the effect of impairing or destroying rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity of Guarantor against Borrower or other
guarantors or sureties, and (b) absent the waiver given by Guarantor, such an election would prevent Lender from enforcing the Loan Documents against Guarantor. Understanding the foregoing, and understanding that Guarantor is hereby relinquishing a
defense to the enforceability of the Loan Documents, Guarantor hereby waives any right to assert against Lender any defense to the enforcement of the Loan Documents, whether denominated “estoppel” or otherwise, based on or arising from an
election by Lender nonjudicially to foreclose any such mortgage or deed of trust. Guarantor understands that the effect of the foregoing waiver may be that Guarantor may have liability hereunder for amounts with respect to which Guarantor may be
left without rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnity against Borrower or other guarantors or sureties. 
  
 (c) Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as nonjudicial
foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, may have destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal under any law of the State of
                            . Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in addition thereto and without
limiting the generality thereof, Guarantor hereby absolutely and irrevocably waive any and all (a) rights which it may have or may now or hereafter acquire by way of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity against Borrower by virtue of any payment
made under this Guaranty or otherwise (including, without limitation, any payment made by Borrower) in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 (d) Guarantor expressly acknowledges that this Guarantee does not replace, supersede, void or affect any other guaranty that Guarantor or any person
related to Guarantor may have previously, simultaneously or hereinafter execute in favor of Lender. 
  
 6. Releases. Guarantor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the obligations of
Guarantor hereunder, Lender may, by action or inaction: 
  
 (a)
compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or otherwise not enforce this Guaranty, the other Loan Documents, or any part thereof, with respect to Borrower or any other
person or entity; 
  
 (b) release Borrower or any other person or
entity or grant other indulgences to Borrower or any other person or entity in respect thereof; 
  
 (c) amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any of the Loan Documents; or 
  
 (d) release or substitute any other guarantor, if any, of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof. 
  

 - 4 - 

 7. No Election. Lender shall have all of the rights to seek recourse against Guarantor to
the fullest extent provided for herein, and no election by Lender to proceed in 6 one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to proceed in any other form of action
or proceeding or against other parties unless Lender has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by Lender under .any document or instrument evidencing the
Guaranteed Obligations shall serve to diminish the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty except to the extent that Lender finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment by such action or proceeding. 
  
 8. Indefeasible Payment. The Guaranteed Obligations shall not
be considered indefeasibly paid for purposes of this Guaranty unless and until all payments to Lender are no longer subject to any right on the part of any person, including Borrower, Borrower as a debtor in possession, or any trustee (whether
appointed under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) of any of Borrower’s assets to invalidate or set aside such payments or to seek to recoup the amount of such payments or any portion thereof, or to declare same to be fraudulent or preferential.
Upon such full and final performance and indefeasible payment of the Guaranteed Obligations whether by Guarantor or Borrower, Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to transfer or assign its interest in the Loan Documents to Guarantor. In the
event that, for any reason, any portion of such payments to Lender is set aside or restored, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, after the making thereof, then the obligation intended to be satisfied thereby shall be revived and continued in full
force and effect as if said payment or payments had not been made, and Guarantor shall be liable to the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, for the amount Lender is required to repay plus any and all costs and expenses (including
attorneys’ fees and expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred pursuant to proceedings arising under the Bankruptcy Code) paid by Lender in connection therewith. 
  
 9. Financial Condition of Borrower. Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that Guarantor is currently
informed of the financial condition of Borrower and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor further represents and warrants to Lender that
Guarantor has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Guarantor hereby covenants that Guarantor will continue to keep informed of Borrower’s financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors, if any,
and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 10. Subordination. Guarantor hereby agrees that any and all present and future indebtedness of Borrower owing to Guarantor is postponed in
favor of and subordinated to payment, in full, in cash, of the Guaranteed Obligations. In this regard, no payment of any kind whatsoever shall be made with respect to such indebtedness during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the
Deed of Trust) until the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full. 
  

 - 5 - 

 11. Payments: Application. All payments to be made hereunder by Guarantor shall be made in
lawful money of the United States of America at the time of payment, shall be made in immediately available funds, and shall be made without deduction (whether for taxes or otherwise) or offset. All payments made by Guarantor hereunder shall be
applied as follows: first, to all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred pursuant to proceedings arising under the Bankruptcy Code) incurred by Lender in enforcing this Guaranty or in collecting the
Guaranteed Obligations; second, to all accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, and fees owing to Lender constituting Guaranteed Obligations; and third, to the balance of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 12. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. Guarantor agrees to pay, on
demand, all reasonable attorneys’ fees (including attorneys’ fees incurred pursuant to proceedings arising under the Bankruptcy Code) and all other costs and expenses which may be incurred by Lender in the enforcement of this Guaranty
(including those brought relating to proceedings pursuant to 11 U.S.C.) or in any way arising out of, or consequential to, the protection, assertion, or enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations (or any security therefor), whether or not suit is
brought. 
  
 13. Notices. All notices or demands by
Guarantor or Lender to the other relating to this Guaranty shall be in writing and either personally served or sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by recognized courier service which provides return
receipts, and shall be deemed delivered on the date of actual delivery or refusal to accept delivery as evidenced by the return receipt. Unless otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the provisions of this section, such
writing shall be sent, if to Guarantor and Lender as follows:

any Loan Document is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any and every other remedy given hereunder or under any Loan Document, and those provided by law or in equity. No
delay or omission by Lender to exercise any right under this Guaranty shall impair any such right nor be construed to be a waiver thereof. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as
a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. 
  
 15. Severability of Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty is for any reason held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, that provision shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Guaranty. 
  
 16. Entire Agreement: Amendments. This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between Guarantor and Lender pertaining to the subject
matter contained herein. This Guaranty may not be altered, amended, or modified, nor may any provision hereof be waived or noncompliance therewith consented to, except by means of a writing executed by both Guarantor and Lender. Any such alteration,
amendment, modification, waiver, or consent shall be effective only to the extent specified therein and for the specific purpose for which given. No course of dealing and no delay or waiver of any right or default under this Guaranty shall be deemed
a waiver of any other similar or dissimilar right or default or otherwise prejudice the rights and remedies hereunder. 
  
 17. Successors and Assigns. The death of Guarantor shall not terminate this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantor’s
heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, successors, and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Lender; provided, however, Guarantor shall not assign this Guaranty or delegate any of its duties hereunder
without Lender’s prior written consent. Any assignment without the consent of Lender shall be absolutely void. In the event of any assignment or other transfer of rights by Lender, the rights and benefits herein conferred upon Lender shall
automatically extend to and be vested in such assignee or other transferee. 
  
 18. Choice of Law and Venue. The validity of this Guaranty, its construction, interpretation, and enforcement, and the rights of Guarantor and Lender, shall be determined under, governed by, and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of                             , without
regard to principles of conflicts of law. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby agrees that all actions or proceedings arising in connection

                            . To the maximum extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby expressly
waives any right it may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to the extent any proceeding is brought in accordance with this Section. 
  
 19. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GUARANTOR HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, KNOWINGLY,
UNCONDITIONALLY, AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, DEMAND, OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF
GUARANTOR AND LENDER WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GUARANTOR
HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, DEMAND, OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL, COUNTERPART OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT OR OTHER TRIBUNAL AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE
OF THE CONSENT OF GUARANTOR TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
  
 20. Understandings With Respect to Waivers and Consents. Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth are made after consultation with legal counsel and with full
knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to a defense or right may diminish, destroy, or otherwise adversely affect rights which Guarantor otherwise may have against the Borrower, or against
any collateral, and that, under the circumstances the waivers and consents herein given are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any of the waivers or consents are determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers
and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.
