within such 364 day period (or earlier period, as the case may be) or (II) if all or any portion of such Net Sale Proceeds is contractually committed to be used as provided above within the 364 day period (or earlier period, as the case may be) and
is not actually used within an additional 180 day period, such remaining portion (in either case) shall be applied on the last day of the respective period (or, if requested by the U.S. Borrower, at any time prior to the end of such period) in
accordance with the requirements of Section 5.02(c); and provided further, that so long as no Specified Default or Event of Default then exists, no application of Net Sale Proceeds shall be required pursuant to this Section 5.02(b)(2)

(c)    Each amount required to be applied pursuant to this clause (c) as a result of the requirements
of Section 5.02(b) shall be applied (after any conversion by the respective Borrower of any amounts received in a currency other than Dollars in the case of the U.S. Borrower or Canadian Dollars in the 
 

-6- 

case of the Canadian Revolving Loan Borrowers into Dollars or Canadian Dollars,
respectively): unless otherwise directed by the U.S. Borrower, (i) first, to repay the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, and (ii) second, to the extent in excess thereof, (x) in case of an application of Net Sale Proceeds pursuant to
Section 5.02(b)(1), to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment (with any repayments required in connection therewith to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect) and
(y) in the case of an application of Net Sale Proceeds pursuant to Section 5.02(b)(2), to be applied in the following order of priority to the extent of such Net Sale Proceeds: 
 
(I)  First, to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment until the Total Revolving
Loan Commitment is reduced to $250,000,000 (whether or not any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit are outstanding) and to repay any outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans by the amount of such reduction if and to the
extent such amount is outstanding (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect), it being understood that for the purposes of the computations under clause (II)
below, to the extent that any reduction of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this clause (I) exceeds the amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, such excess shall be deemed to have been
credited to the outstanding Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, if any; 
 
(II)  Second, if there are Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit outstanding on the last day of the applicable period specified in Section 5.02(b)(2) that were not repaid (or, in the case of
outstanding Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, not deemed to have been credited with a commitment reduction) pursuant to the foregoing clause (I), (x) to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment by the amount of such
outstanding Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit and (y) to repay the outstanding principal amount as of such date of Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and
Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect); and 
 
(III)  Third, to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment by an amount, if any, equal to (x) the amount of Net Sale Proceeds not applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses (I) or (II), or not otherwise
applied by the U.S. Borrower to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment within the applicable period minus (y) the amount by which the Qualifying Indebtedness outstanding on the last day of the applicable period specified in
Section 5.02(b)(2) is less than the Baseline Qualifying Indebtedness as of such date, and to repay any outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans by the amount of such reduction if and to the extent such amount is
outstanding (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.02(c), so long as the Total Revolving Loan Commitment exceeds the Letter of Credit Outstandings, in no event shall amounts be required to be repaid pursuant to this Section
5.02(c) in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit. All mandatory repayments of Term Loans made pursuant to this Section 5.02(c) shall be applied to reduce the then remaining principal amount of the Term Loan due at the Maturity Date.”

 
SECTION 1.12.  Section 5.02(g) of the
Credit Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 
 
“(g)    The Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall be reduced permanently (i) on the Conversion Date as set forth in Section 2.01(b) by the amount of the Term Loan made on such
date and (ii) on the six month anniversary of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, by an amount equal to the greater of (x) zero and (y) $100,000,000 minus the aggregate amount by which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment is actually reduced pursuant
to Section 5.02(b) and Section 5.02(c) during the period beginning on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date and ending immediately prior to such six month anniversary date.”

sentence at the end thereof: 
 
“In addition, each reduction of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall reduce the maximum letter of credit outstandings permitted pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(i) in a proportionate amount such

(b)  In addition to any other covenants or restrictions contained in this Agreement, during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter immediately following an Adjusted Covenant Test Period
and ending on the date that the compliance certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) with respect to such fiscal quarter demonstrating that the U.S. Borrower is in compliance with the Baseline Financial Covenants as at the end of fiscal
quarter following the Adjusted Covenant Test Period, (A) no Borrower shall borrow, and the Lenders shall have no obligation to make, any Loans under this Agreement (it being understood that this Section 9.05(b)(A) shall not require the prepayment of
any previously outstanding Loans); provided, however, that, subject to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the U.S. Borrower may borrow, and the Lenders shall be obligated to make Loans, during the 6 month

such Net Sale Proceeds, provided that any such Borrowings shall be repaid within such 30 day period, (B) no Borrower shall be entitled to obtain the issuance of a

issue any Letter of Credit hereunder and (C) so long as any Loans or any Letters of Credit are outstanding, notwithstanding any provisions of Sections 11.02, 11.10, 11.11 or 11.12 to the contrary, the U.S. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to do the following:

4.7(d)(vi) or 4.7(d)(vii) of the Senior Note Indenture as in effect on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (other than borrowings permitted pursuant to clause (A) of this Section 9.05(b)); 
 
(ii)  authorize, declare or pay any Dividends otherwise permitted under Sections 11.11(iii),
11.11(iv), 11.11(v) or 11.11(vi), except that so long as no Specified Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, the U.S. Borrower may pay cash Dividends (which may be based on estimates) to HMC and all other holders of OP
Units generally so long as the proceeds therefrom are promptly used by HMC to (x) make payments to the extent necessary for HMC to distribute to the shareholders of HMC generally the minimum amount necessary for HMC to maintain its tax status as a
real estate investment trust and to satisfy the distributions required to be made by Notice 88-19 under the Code (or Treasury regulations issued pursuant thereto) by reason of HMC making the election provided for therein, (y) make Permitted Tax

Treasury regulations issued pursuant thereto)) and (z) pay any general corporate and other overhead expenses and liabilities incurred by HMC to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement; 
 
(iii)  (x) make any Investment otherwise permitted
under Section 11.10(iii) if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of Investments made pursuant to Section 11.10(iii) during such period would exceed $12,500,000 or (y) make any Investment otherwise permitted under Section 11.10(iv) if,
after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of Investments made pursuant to Section 11.10(iv) during such period would exceed $25,000,000, in each case calculated on a net basis in the manner specified in Section 11.10(iii) and Section
11.10(iv), respectively; or 
 
(iv)  make any Capital Expenditure otherwise permitted under Section 11.12(iv) if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all Capital Expenditures (other than Life Safety Expenditures) made pursuant to Section
11.12(iv) during the fiscal quarter in which such Capital Expenditures are made would exceed the sum of (x) $2,500,000, plus(y) the amount set forth on Schedule I to Amendment No. 1 corresponding to such fiscal quarter (or, in the case that the
restrictions set forth in this Section 9.05(b) are applicable to the second or third fiscal quarter following the Adjusted Covenant Test Period, such scheduled amount prorated by the number of days of such fiscal quarter in which the restrictions
set forth in this Section 9.05(b) are applicable) plus (z) the amounts specified on Schedule I to Amendment No. 1 corresponding to 
 

-12- 

each fiscal quarter prior to such fiscal quarter to the extent such amounts have not
previously been spent in such prior fiscal quarters; 
 
(c)  During the period beginning with the fiscal quarter immediately following an Adjusted Covenant Test Period and ending on the date that the compliance certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) with
respect to such fiscal quarter, for purposes of any covenants in this Agreement for which compliance is determined with reference to calculations of the financial covenants set forth in Sections 9.01, 9.02 or 9.03, the applicable covenant levels
shall, in lieu of the Baseline Financial Covenants, be as set forth in Section 9.05(a). 
 
(d)  During the fiscal quarter immediately following the Adjusted Covenant Test Period until the day immediately
prior to the last day of such fiscal quarter, the maximum Leverage Ratio applicable pursuant to Section 9.01 shall be 7.60:1.00. 
 
(e)  During the period beginning with the fiscal quarter immediately following an Adjusted Covenant Test Period
and ending on the date that the compliance certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) with respect to such fiscal quarter, the Applicable Margin for such period shall be computed based on the Leverage Ratio existing on the Test Date
immediately preceding such period. To the extent that such computation would result in additional interest during such period not otherwise payable, then notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.09(f), such additional interest shall be due and payable
on the first Business Day following the earlier of the date on which the compliance certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) with respect to the Adjusted Covenant Test Period or the date on which such certificate is actually due.”

Exhibit 10.40

 
AMENDMENT NO. 1 dated as of May 14, 2003
(this “Amendment”), amending the CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of June 6, 2002 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Host Marriott, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “U.S. Borrower”), each
Canadian Revolving Loan Borrower party thereto (together with the U.S. Borrower, the “Borrowers”), the Lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Administrative Agent (in
such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement. 
 
RECITALS 
 
WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have entered into the Credit Agreement; 
 
WHEREAS, the U.S. Borrower has requested certain amendments to
the Credit Agreement; and 
 
WHEREAS, the Required
Lenders and the Administrative Agent are willing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below, to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement, after giving effect to the amendments contained herein, being
referred to as the “Amended Credit Agreement”); 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, the undersigned agree as follows: 
 
ARTICLE I. 
 
AMENDMENTS
TO CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 
SECTION
1.1.  Effective on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (as such term is defined in Section 2.1), the Credit Agreement is hereby modified in accordance with this Article I. 
 
SECTION 1.2.  The definition of “Applicable Commitment Commission Percentage” appearing
in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the percentage “0.10%” in the proviso thereof and substituting in lieu thereof the percentage “0.20%”. 
 
SECTION 1.3.  The definition of “Applicable
Margin” appearing in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following: 
 
““Applicable Margin” shall mean, with respect to any Revolving Loan, from and after any Start Date to and
including the corresponding End Date, the respective percentage per annum set forth below under the respective Type of Loan and opposite the respective Level (i.e., Level I, Level II, Level III, Level IV, Level V, Level VI or Level VII, as the case
may be) indicated to have been achieved on the Test Date immediately preceding such Start Date (as shown on 

the respective officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) or the
first proviso below): 
 

	 	  	 Leverage Ratio

	    	 Base
 Rate Loans

	    	 Eurodollar
 Rate Loans

	 Level I
	  	 Less than 5:00:1.00
	    	 1.50%
	    	 2.50%

	
	 Level II
	  	 Greater than or equal to 5.00:1.00 but less than 5.50:1.00
	    	 1.75%
	    	 2.75%

	
	 Level III
	  	 Greater than or equal to 5.50:1.00 but less than 6.00:1.00
	    	 2.00%
	    	 3.00%

	
	 Level IV
	  	 greater than or equal to 6.00:1.00 but less than 6.50:1.00
	    	 2.25%
	    	 3.25%

	
	 Level V
	  	 greater than or equal to 6.50:1.00 but less than 7.00:1.00
	    	 2.50%
	    	 3.50%

	
	 Level VI
	  	 greater than or equal to 7.00:1.00 but less than 7.25:1.00
	    	 2.75%
	    	 3.75%

	
	 Level VII
	  	 greater than or equal to 7.25:1:00
	    	 3.25%
	    	 4.25%

 
; provided, however, that if the U.S. Borrower fails to deliver the financial statements required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(a) or (b) (accompanied by the officer’s certificate required to be
delivered pursuant to Section 10.11(d) showing the applicable Leverage Ratio on the relevant Test Date) on or prior to the respective date required by such Sections, then Level VII pricing shall apply until such time, if any, as the financial
statements required as set forth above and the accompanying officer’s certificate have been delivered showing the pricing for the respective Margin Reduction Period is at a level which is less than Level VII (it being understood that, in the
case of any late delivery of the financial statements and officer’s certificate as so required, any reduction in the Applicable Margin shall apply only from and after the date of the delivery of the complying financial statements and
officer’s certificate); provided, further, that Level VII pricing shall apply at any time when any Specified Default or Event of Default is in existence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the immediately preceding
sentence (other than the second proviso thereof), Level IV pricing shall apply for the period from the Effective Date to but not including the date which is the first Start Date after the Effective Date. 
 
The Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be
the above rates as in effect from time to time plus 0.50% per annum. The Applicable Margin for Canadian Revolving Loans is the Applicable Margin determined above for Base Rate Loans.” 
 

-2- 

 
SECTION
1.4.  The definition of “Contingent Obligation” in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is amended by inserting the following phrase immediately following the phrase “in the ordinary course of business” in the first
proviso thereof: 
 
“or, for all purposes of
this Agreement other than determining compliance with Section 11.02(ii) or computing the Applicable Margin with respect to any Revolving Loan, up to $14,700,000 of obligations consisting of the Leisure Park Guarantee to the extent such obligations
are the subject of an undisputed indemnity by Barceló Crestline Corporation in favor of the U.S. Borrower that is backed by an indemnity from Senior Housing Properties Trust (but only for such time as Senior Housing Properties Trust has a
long term unsecured non credit-enhanced rating of at least “Ba2” or higher from Moody’s and “BB” or higher from S&P and the beneficiary of the Leisure Park Guarantee is not entitled to demand payment thereunder pursuant
to the second paragraph of Section 1 thereof)”

within such 364 day period (or earlier period, as the case may be) or (II) if all or any portion of such Net Sale Proceeds is contractually committed to be used as provided above within the 364 day period (or earlier period, as the case may be) and
is not actually used within an additional 180 day period, such remaining portion (in either case) shall be applied on the last day of the respective period (or, if requested by the U.S. Borrower, at any time prior to the end of such period) in

(I)  First, to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment until the Total Revolving
Loan Commitment is reduced to $250,000,000 (whether or not any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit are outstanding) and to repay any outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans by the amount of such reduction if and to the
extent such amount is outstanding (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect), it being understood that for the purposes of the computations under clause (II)
below, to the extent that any reduction of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this clause (I) exceeds the amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, such excess shall be deemed to have been
credited to the outstanding Letters of Credit and Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, if any; 
 
(II)  Second, if there are Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit outstanding on the last day of the applicable period specified in Section 5.02(b)(2) that were not repaid (or, in the case of
outstanding Letters of Credit or Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, not deemed to have been credited with a commitment reduction) pursuant to the foregoing clause (I), (x) to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment by the amount of such
outstanding Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit and (y) to repay the outstanding principal amount as of such date of Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and
Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect); and 
 
(III)  Third, to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment by an amount, if any, equal to (x) the amount of Net Sale Proceeds not applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses (I) or (II), or not otherwise
applied by the U.S. Borrower to permanently reduce the Total Revolving Loan Commitment within the applicable period minus (y) the amount by which the Qualifying Indebtedness outstanding on the last day of the applicable period specified in
Section 5.02(b)(2) is less than the Baseline Qualifying Indebtedness as of such date, and to repay any outstanding Revolving Loans other than Bankers’ Acceptance Loans by the amount of such reduction if and to the extent such amount is
outstanding (such repayment to be allocated between Dollar Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans as the relevant Borrowers may elect).

Credit Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

date and (ii) on the six month anniversary of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, by an amount equal to the greater of (x) zero and (y) $100,000,000 minus the aggregate amount by which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment is actually reduced pursuant
to Section 5.02(b) and Section 5.02(c) during the period beginning on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date and ending immediately prior to such six month anniversary date.”

Amendment and Waiver.  Except as expressly modified hereby, all of the representations, warranties, terms, covenants, conditions and other provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall remain unamended and
unwaived and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms. The amendments and waivers set forth herein shall be limited precisely as provided for herein to the provisions expressly
amended or waived herein and shall not be deemed to be an amendment to, consent to, waiver of or modification of any other term or provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or of any transaction or further or future action which

SECTION 4.2.  Release of Claims and Waiver.  Each Borrower hereby releases, remises, acquits and forever discharges each Lender and the Administrative Agent and each of their employees, agents,
representative, consultants, attorneys, officers, directors, partners, fiduciaries, predecessors, successors and assigns, subsidiary corporations, parent corporations and related corporate divisions (collectively, the “Released
Parties”), from any and all actions, causes of action, judgments, executions, suits, debts, claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, damages and expenses of any and every character, known or unknown, direct or indirect, at law or in
equity, of whatever nature or kind, whether heretofore or hereafter arising, for or because of any matter or things done, omitted or suffered to be done by any of the Released Parties prior to and including the date of execution hereof, and in any
way directly or indirectly arising out of any or in any way connected to the Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Released Matters”). Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the agreements in this
Section 4.2 are intended to be in full satisfaction of all or any alleged injuries or damages arising in connection with the Released Matters. Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent that it has not

SECTION 4.3.  Credit Document Pursuant to Credit
Agreement.  This Amendment is executed pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall be construed, administered and applied in accordance with all of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement (and, following the Amendment No. 1
Effective Date, the Amended Credit Agreement). Any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant or agreement contained in this Amendment shall be deemed to be an Event of Default for all purposes of the Credit Agreement. 
 
SECTION 4.4.  Fees and
Expenses.  The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment, whether or not this Amendment

remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
