      2.1          Contribution
        and Acquisition.  The Contributors agree
        to
        contribute, assign and transfer their Interests to the Acquirer and the Acquirer
        agrees to accept the Interests in exchange for the Consideration and in
        accordance with the other terms and conditions set forth
        herein.

       

      2.2          Study
        Period.  (a)  The
        Acquirer shall have the
        right, until the end of the Study Period, to enter upon the Real Property
        and to
        perform, at the Acquirer’s expense, such economic, surveying, engineering,
        environmental, topographic and marketing tests, studies and investigations
        as
        the Acquirer may deem appropriate.  If such tests, studies and
        investigations warrant, in the Acquirer’s sole, absolute and unreviewable
        discretion, the purchase of the Interests for the purposes contemplated by
        the
        Acquirer, then the Acquirer may elect to proceed to Closing and shall so
        notify
        the Contributors prior to the expiration of the Study Period.  If for
        any reason the Acquirer does not so notify the Contributors of its determination
        to proceed to Closing prior to the expiration of the Study Period, or if
        the
        Acquirer notifies the Contributors, in writing, prior to the expiration of
        the
        Study Period that it has determined not to proceed to Closing, this Agreement
        automatically shall terminate, and the Acquirer shall be released from any
        further liability or obligation under this Agreement.

       

      (b)           
        During the Study Period, the
        Contributors shall make available to the Acquirer, its agents, auditors,
        engineers, attorneys and other designees, for inspection copies of all existing
        architectural and engineering studies, surveys, title insurance policies,
        zoning
        and site plan materials, correspondence, environmental audits and other related
        materials or information if any, relating to the Property which are in, or
        come
        into, the Contributors’ possession or control.

       

      (c)           
        The Acquirer hereby indemnifies
        and defends the Contributors against any loss, damage or claim arising from
        entry upon the Real Property by the Acquirer or any agents, contractors or
        employees of the Acquirer.  The Acquirer, at its own expense, shall
        restore any damage to the Real Property caused by any of the tests or studies
        made by the Acquirer.

       

      (d)           
        During the Study Period, the
        Acquirer, at its expense, may cause an examination of title to the Property
        to
        be made, and, prior to the expiration of the Study Period, may notify the
        Contributors of any defects in title shown by such examination that the Acquirer
        is unwilling to accept.  The Contributors shall notify the Acquirer
        whether the Contributors are willing to cure such defects and to proceed
        to
        Closing.  Contributors may cure, but shall not be obligated to cure
        such defects.  If such defects consist of deeds of trust, mechanics'
        liens, tax liens or other liens or charges in a fixed sum or capable of
        computation as a fixed sum, the Contributors, at their option, shall either
        pay
        and discharge (in which event, the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and
        discharge at Closing) such defects at Closing.  If the Contributors
        are unwilling or unable to cure any such defects by Closing, the Acquirer
        shall
        elect (1) to waive such defects and proceed to Closing without any
        abatement in the Consideration or (2) to terminate this
        Agreement.  The Contributors shall not, after the date of this
        Agreement, subject the Property to and shall take all reasonable best efforts
        to
        prevent the Property from being subjected to any liens, encumbrances, covenants,
        conditions, restrictions, easements or other title matters or seek any zoning
        changes or take any other action which may affect or modify the status of
        title
        without the Acquirer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be
        unreasonably withheld or delayed.  All title matters revealed by the
        Acquirer’s title examination and not objected to by the Acquirer as provided
        above shall be deemed Permitted Title Exceptions.  If Acquirer shall
        fail to examine title and notify the Contributors of any such title objections
        by the end of the Study Period, all such title exceptions (other than those
        rendering title unmarketable and those that are to be paid at Closing as
        provided above) shall be deemed Permitted Title
        Exceptions.

      2.3          Payment
        of
        the Consideration. Acquirer
        shall obtain the Loan, and the remainder of the Consideration shall be paid
        to
        the Contributors in the following manner:

       

      (a)           
        Acquirer shall pay to Contributors the sum of Seven Million Seven Hundred
        Fifty
        Thousand Dollars ($7,750,000.00) in the form of LP Units, the number of such
        LP
        Units determined at the rate of an LP Unit price per unit of Nine and
        Approximately 94/100 Dollars ($9.94118). Contributors shall be restricted
        from
        converting or selling such LP Units for a period of one (1) year from the
        Closing Date.

      

      (b)           
        Acquirer shall pay to Contributors the remainder of the Consideration in
        the
        form of immediately available good funds of lawful money of the United
        States.

      

      (c)           
        Any adjustments and prorations to be made pursuant to the terms of this
        Agreement shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
        an
        account specified by the party due to receive same.

      

      (d)           
        Notwithstanding the foregoing, no LP Units shall be issued by the Acquirer,
        and
        following such issuance no LP Units shall be transferred by any Contributor
        to,
        any person or entity that is not an accredited investor within the meaning
        of
        Regulation D promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
        (“SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and
        to the extent any such non-accredited person or entity is entitled to receive
        any portion of the Consideration, such portion shall be paid in cash rather
        than
        LP Units and the number of LP Units issuable in payment of the Consideration
        shall be reduced accordingly. Each Contributor agrees to take such actions
        as
        Acquirer may reasonably request in order to assure that the issuance of any
        LP
        Units pursuant to this Agreement complies with the requirements of the
        Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Except as otherwise
        expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Contributors acknowledge and agree
        that once the Closing occurs, the Contributors shall no longer hold any right,
        title or interest in the Property (except through its ownership of Acquirer).
        Contributors hereby direct Acquirer to pay, issue and distribute (as applicable)
        the Consideration on the Closing Date to the Contributors in such amounts
        set
        forth in this Agreement. The Contributors
        that
        acquire LP Units acknowledge that any certificates evidencing the LP Units
        will
        bear appropriate legends indicating (i) that the LP Units have not been
        registered under the Securities Act, and (ii) that Acquirer’s Limited
        Partnership Agreement (the “Acquirer’s Limited
        Partnership Agreement”) restricts the transfer of the LP Units. Each
        Contributor shall upon receipt of the LP Units at Closing become a limited
        partner of Acquirer by executing the form of joinder (the “Joinder”) to the
        Acquirer’s Limited Partnership Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit J and deliver
        the executed Joinder at closing pursuant to the terms of Section 6.2 hereof;
        provided, however,
        that if any
        Contributor is presently a limited partner of the Acquirer, such Contributor
        shall not be required to execute and deliver the Joinder.  By
        executing and delivering the Joinder in accordance with the terms hereof,
        each
        Contributor acknowledges that it will be bound by the terms and provisions
        of
        the Acquirer’s Limited Partnership Agreement.

      3.9          Tax
        Matters.

       

      (a)           
        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 transaction contemplated hereby shall be treated for federal
        income tax purposes pursuant to Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of
        1986, as amended, as the contribution of the Interests by the Contributors
        to
        the Acquirer in exchange for the Consideration, and not as a transaction
        in
        which any Contributors are acting other than in the capacity as a prospective
        partner in the Acquirer.

      

      (b)           
        The Contributors represent and warrant that they has obtained from their
        own
        counsel advice regarding the tax consequences of (i) the transfer of the
        Interests to the Acquirer and the receipt of the Consideration therefor,
        (ii)
        the Contributors’ admission as a limited partner of the Acquirer, and (iii) any
        other transaction contemplated by this Agreement.  Each Contributor
        further represents and warrants that it has not relied on the Acquirer or
        the
        Acquirer’s representatives or counsel for such tax advice.

       

      (c)           
        The Contributors have caused the LP and the LLC to file within the time and
        in
        the manner prescribed by law all 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 the
        LP and
        the LLC under the laws of the United States and of each state or other
        jurisdiction in which the LP and the LLC conduct business activities requiring
        the filing of tax returns or reports. All tax returns and reports filed by
        the
        LP and the LLC are true and correct in all material respects. The LP and
        the LLC
        have paid in full all taxes of whatever kind or nature for the periods covered
        by such returns. The LP and the LLC have not been delinquent in the payment
        of

        accruals, and reserves for unpaid taxes on the books and records of the LP
        and
        the LLC as of the Closing Date are sufficient in all respects for the payment
        of
        all unpaid federal, state, and local taxes of the LP and the LLC 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 LP and the LLC or any of their respective
        assets. The federal, state, and local tax returns of the LP and the LLC have
        not
        been audited, nor have the LP, the LLC or the Contributors received any notice
        of any federal, state, or local audit. The LP and the
        LLC have not obtained or received any
        extension of time (beyond the Closing Date) for the assessment of deficiencies
        for any years or waived or extended the statute of limitations for the
        determination or collection of any tax.  To the Contributors’
Knowledge, no unassessed tax deficiency is proposed or threatened against
        the
LP or the
        LLC.

      

      (d)           
        All taxes, including real
        property
        taxes and rental taxes or the equivalent, and all interest and penalties
        due
        thereon, required to be paid or collected by the LP or the LLC in connection
        with the operation of
        the Property as of the Closing Date will have been collected and/or paid
        to the
        appropriate governmental authorities, as required or such amounts shall be
        pro-rated as of the Closing Date. The Contributors shall cause the LP and
        the LLC to file, all necessary
        returns and petitions required to be filed through the Closing
        Date.  The Contributors shall cause the LP and the LLC to prepare and
        file all federal and
        state income tax returns for the tax period ending on the Closing Date, which
        shall reflect the termination for tax purposes of the LP and the LLC.

        breached or violated.   Neither the LP nor the LLC has
        misrepresented or failed to disclose any relevant fact in obtaining all
        Authorizations, and the Contributors have no Knowledge of any change in the

        LP and the LLC have performed all of their respective obligations under each
        of
        the Operating Agreements and no fact or circumstance has occurred which,
        by

        change in the financial condition or in the operations of the

        Partnership and LP Partnership Agreement are in full force and effect and
        have
        not been modified or supplemented, and no fact or circumstance has occurred
        that, by itself or with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both,
        would constitute a default thereunder.

        Contributors covenant that between the date hereof and the Closing Date,
        Contributors shall cause the LP and the LLC to (a) operate the Property only
        in
        the usual, regular and ordinary manner consistent with the LP’s and the LLC’s
        prior practice, (b) maintain the books of account and records in the usual,
        regular and ordinary manner, in accordance with sound accounting principles
        applied on a basis consistent with the basis used in keeping its books in
        prior
        years, and (c) use all reasonable efforts to preserve intact the present
        business organization, keep available the services of the present officers
        and
        employees and preserve their relationships with suppliers and others having
        business dealings with them.  The Contributors shall cause the LP and
        the LLC to continue to make good faith efforts to take guest room reservations
        and to book functions and meetings and otherwise to promote the business
        of the
        Property in generally the same manner as the LP and the LLC did prior to
        the
        execution of this Agreement.  Except as otherwise permitted hereby,
        from the date hereof until Closing, the Contributors shall use their good
        faith
        efforts to ensure that the LP and the LLC shall not take any action or fail
        to
        take action the result of which (i) would have a material adverse effect
        on the
        Property or the Acquirer’s ability to continue the operation thereof after the
        Closing Date in substantially the same manner as presently conducted, (ii)
        reduce or cause to be reduced any room rents or any other charges over which
        Contributors have operational control, or (iii) would cause any of the
        representations and warranties contained in this Article
        III
to be untrue as of
        Closing.

        Law
        Matters.

       

      (a)           
        The Contributors are knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in business
        and financial matters; the Contributors have previously invested in securities
        similar to the LP Units and fully understand the limitations on transfer
        imposed
        by the federal securities laws and as described in this Agreement. The
        Contributors are able to bear the economic risk of holding the LP Units for
        an
        indefinite period and are able to afford the complete loss of its investment
        in
        the LP Units; the Contributors have received and reviewed all information
        and
        documents about or pertaining to Acquirer and Hersha, the business and prospects
        of Acquirer and Hersha and the issuance of the LP Units as the Contributors
        deem
        necessary or desirable; and the Contributors have had the opportunity to
        review
        public filings made with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act related to
        Acquirer and Hersha; and the Contributors have been given the opportunity
        to
        obtain any additional information or documents and to ask questions and receive
        answers about such information and documents, Acquirer, Hersha, the business
        and
        prospects of Acquirer and Hersha and the LP Units which the Contributors
        deem
        necessary or desirable to evaluate the merits and risks related to their
        investment in the LP Units and to conduct their own independent valuation
        of the
        LP Units; and the Contributors understand and have taken cognizance of all
        risk
        factors related to the purchase of the LP Units. The Contributors were at
        no
        time presented with or solicited by any form of general solicitation or general
        advertising, including, but not limited to, any advertisement, article, notice
        or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media
        or
        broadcast over television or radio, or any seminar or meeting whose attendees
        have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising in
        connection with the acquisition of the LP Units contemplated hereby. The
        Contributors are sophisticated real estate investors. In acquiring the LP
        Units
        and engaging in this transaction, the Contributors are not relying upon any
        representations made to it by Acquirer or Hersha, or any of the officers,
        employees, or agents of Acquirer or Hersha not contained herein. The
        Contributors are relying upon their own independent analysis and assessment
        (including with respect to taxes), and the advice of such Contributors’ advisors
        (including tax advisors), and not upon that of Acquirer or Hersha or any
        of
        Acquirer’s or Hersha’s advisors or affiliates, for purposes of evaluating,
        entering into, and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
        The Contributors represent and warrant that they has reviewed and approved
        the
        form of the Acquirer’s Limited Partnership Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit
        K.

      (b)           
        The Contributors understand that the LP Units have not 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
        LP
        Units issuable to the Contributors are being acquired solely for the
        Contributors’ own accounts, 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 the Contributors
        have
        no present intention to enter into any contract, undertaking, agreement,
        or
        arrangement with respect to any such resale. The Contributors understand
        that
        any certificates evidencing the LP Units will contain appropriate legends
        as
        required by the Acquirer’s Limited Partnership Agreement that reflect the
        non-negotiability of the certificate and that the LP Units represented by
        the
        certificate are governed by and are transferable only in accordance with
        the
        provisions of the Acquirer’s Limited Partnership Agreement.

                Items
                  to be Apportioned.  The following
                  shall
                  be prorated and apportioned between Contributors and the Acquirer
as
                  of 11:59:59 P.M. (local Hotel
                  time) on the Apportionment Date, except as otherwise expressly
                  provided to
                  the contrary below:

              

      

       

      
        	
                 

              	
                (i)

              	
                Property
                  Taxes.  Real estate
                  taxes, ad
                  valorem taxes, personal property taxes, special assessments, sewer
                  rents
                  and taxes, and any other governmental tax or charge levied or assessed
                  against the Property (collectively, the “Property
                  Taxes”), shall be
                  apportioned on the basis of the respective periods for which each
                  is
                  assessed or imposed.  If the Closing Date shall occur either
                  before an assessment is made or a tax rate is fixed for the tax
                  period in
                  which the Closing occurs, the apportionment of such Property Taxes
                  shall
                  be calculated on the basis of the prior year’s Property Taxes, but, after
                  the assessment and tax rate for the current year are fixed, the
                  apportionment thereof shall be recalculated and the Contributors
                  or the
                  Acquirer,
                  as the case may be, shall
                  promptly pay to the other the amount determined to be due based
                  on such
                  recalculation.

              

      

       

      
        	
                 

              	
                (ii)

              	
                Utilities. The
                  Utilities shall be apportioned
                  (i) by having the utility companies servicing the Property make
                  final
                  meter readings on the Apportionment Date, the payment of which
                  shall be
                  the Contributors’ responsibility, or (ii) if such readings cannot be
                  obtained, on the basis of the most recent bills that are available,
                  reasonably adjusted (if necessary) to reflect any changes in occupancy,
                  temperature or other relevant variables between the respective
                  periods
                  covered by such bills and the most recent relevant at period, to
                  the
                  extent such changes would have a material impact on the amount
                  of the
                  estimated charges for the most recent period for the utility in
                  question.  If the apportionment is not based on an actual
                  current reading, then, upon the taking of a subsequent actual reading,
                  or
                  upon receipt of a subsequent bill, such apportionment shall be
                  recalculated and the Contributors or the Acquirer,
                  as the case may be, shall
                  promptly pay to the other the amount determined to be due upon
                  such
                  recalculation.  The Acquirer
shall
                  reimburse the Contributors
                  for any outstanding utility deposits made by the
                  Contributors

                (iii)

              	
                Licenses.  All
                  repaid fees or
                  other charges for transferable licenses, if any, shall be apportioned
                  on
                  the basis of the fiscal period covered by such license, but all
                  amounts
                  refundable under unassigned or unassignable licenses shall remain
                  the
                  property of Contributors.

                Service
                  Contracts, Space Leases and Agreements.  Amounts paid
                  or
                  payable under any service contract, space lease and agreement,
                  shall be
                  apportioned on the basis of the period covered by such
                  payments.

                  net of
                  applicable sales taxes and other governmental impositions (whether
                  such
                  revenues, sales taxes or other governmental impositions are collected
                  or

                  on the

                  and the
                  Acquirer.  After
                  this time all
                  revenues from the rental of guestrooms and from food and beverage
                  and
                  other sales or services posted to a guest room account shall belong
                  to the
                  Acquirer.  For
                  purpose of these
                  apportionments, the hotel personnel shall promptly post all charges

                  of the Apportionment
                  Date shall belong to the Contributors.  Revenues from any
                  meeting room that was not occupied until after this time shall

        all of Contributors’ keys
        to all safes and safe deposit boxes

        give written notices to those
        persons who have deposited items in any central safes (excluding in-room
        safes),

        such removals or verifications on the Closing Date shall be under the
        supervision of Contributors’ and
Acquirer’s
respective
        representatives.  All contents which are to remain in the safes shall

        written notice by so removing or verifying their safe contents by the end
        of the
        day shall be recorded in the presence of the respective
        representatives.  Any such contents so verified or recorded and
        thereafter remaining in the hands of Acquirer shall
        be the responsibility of
Acquirer and
Acquirer
        hereby agrees to indemnify, defend
        and hold
Contributors harmless
        from any liability
        therefor.  Contributors hereby
        agree to indemnify and hold
Acquirer
harmless
        from any liability arising from
        claims by guests for any loss of contents in the safes not verified or recorded
        on the Closing Date.

      CONDEMNATION;
        RISK OF LOSS

       

      7.1          Condemnation.  In
        the event of any actual
        or threatened taking, pursuant to the power of eminent domain, of all or
        any
        portion of the Real Property, or any proposed sale in lieu thereof, the
        Contributors shall give written notice thereof to the Acquirer promptly after
        the Contributors learn or receive notice thereof.  If all or any part
        of the Real Property is, or is to be, so condemned or sold, the Acquirer
        shall
        have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3.  If
        the Acquirer elects not
        to terminate this Agreement, all proceeds, awards and other payments arising
        out
        of such condemnation or sale (actual or threatened) shall be paid or assigned,
        as applicable, to the Acquirer at Closing.

       

      7.2          Risk
        of
        Loss.   The
        risk of any loss or damage to the Property prior to the recordation of the
        Deed
        shall remain upon Contributors.  If any such loss or damage to more
        than ten percent (10%) of the value of the Improvements occurs prior to Closing
        or any such loss or damage is uninsured or underinsured, the Acquirer shall
        have
        the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3.  If
        the Acquirer elects not
        to terminate this Agreement, all insurance proceeds and rights to proceeds
        arising out of such loss or damage shall be paid or assigned, as applicable,
        to
        the Acquirer at Closing.

      8.1          Liability
        of
        Acquirer.  Except
        for any obligation expressly assumed or agreed to be assumed by the Acquirer
        hereunder and in the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Acquirer does
        not
        assume any obligation of the Contributors or any liability for claims arising
        out of any occurrence prior to Closing.

       

      8.2          Indemnification
        by Contributors.  The Contributors hereby
        indemnify and hold the Acquirer harmless from and against any and all suits,
        actions, claims, costs, penalties, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses,
        subject to Section  9.11,
        that may at any time
        be
        incurred by the Acquirer, whether before or after Closing, (i) as a result
        of
        any breach by the Contributors of any of their representations, warranties,
        covenants or obligations set forth herein or in any other document delivered
        by
        the Contributors pursuant hereto, (ii) relating to any suits, litigation
        or
        actions brought against any Contributors, the LP or the LLC prior to the
        Closing
        Date, (iii) in connection with any and all liabilities and obligations of
        the LP
        or the LLC occurring, accruing or arising prior to the Closing Date, and/or
        (iv)
        resulting from any default of the Contributors before and after the Closing
        Date, or as a result of or in connection with the use or operation of the
        Property prior to the Closing Date.

       

      8.3          Termination
        by Acquirer.  If
        any condition set forth herein cannot or will not be satisfied prior to Closing,
        or upon the occurrence of any other event that would entitle the Acquirer
        to
        terminate this Agreement and its obligations hereunder, and the Contributors
        fail to cure any such matter within five (5) days after notice thereof from
        the
        Acquirer, the Acquirer, at its option and as its sole remedy, shall elect
        either
        (a) to terminate this Agreement, and all other rights and obligations of
        the Contributors and the Acquirer hereunder shall terminate immediately,
        or
        (b) to waive its right to terminate and, instead, to proceed to
        Closing.

      8.4          Termination
        by Contributors.  If, prior to Closing,
        the
        Acquirer defaults in performing any of their obligations under this Agreement,
        and the Acquirer fails to cure any such default within five (5) business
        days
        after notice thereof from the Contributors, then the Contributors’ sole remedy
        for such default shall be to terminate this Agreement.

        Agreement may be modified only by a written instrument duly executed by the
        parties hereto.

       

      9.2          Assignments.  The
        Acquirer may assign its
        rights hereunder to any affiliate of Acquirer without the consent of the
        Contributors.  No such assignment shall relieve the Acquirer of any of
        its obligations and liabilities hereunder.

       

      9.3          Successors
        and Assigns.  The
        benefits and burdens of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and

      9.4          Days.  If
        any action is required
        to be performed, or if any notice, consent or other communication is given,
        on a
        day that is a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday in the jurisdiction in
        which
        the action is required to be performed or in which is located the intended
        recipient of such notice, consent or other communication, such performance
        shall
        be deemed to be required, and such notice, consent or other communication
        shall
        be deemed to be given, on the first business day following such Saturday,

      9.6          Counterparts.  To
        facilitate execution,
        this Agreement may be executed in as many counterparts as may be
        required.  It shall not be necessary that the signature on behalf of
        both parties hereto appear on each counterpart hereof.  All
        counterparts hereof shall collectively constitute a single
        agreement.

       

      9.7          Severability.  If
        any term, covenant or
        condition of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or
        circumstance, shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder
        of
        this Agreement, or the application of such term, covenant or condition to
        other
        persons or circumstances, shall not be affected thereby, and each term, covenant
        or condition of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest
        extent permitted by law.

        this
        Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation
        fees of attorneys, engineers and accountants.
