providers for similar services. Group Services shall be audited on an annual basis by a certified public accounting firm to verify that: (a) all Group Services are allocated on a basis that are no less favorable than those allocated to other
hotels managed by Manager, (b) to be certified by Manager as opposed to the accounting firm, the amounts allocated are consistent with normal and customary market charges, and (c) there is no mark-up, fee or profit included in the amounts
charged. Manager shall cause the accounting firm to provide Lessee on or before 90 days following the end of each Fiscal Year a detailed schedule of Group Service allocations such as will enable Lessee to confirm clauses (a) and (c) above.

 6.04 Right to Inspect. Lessee, the beneficial owners of Lessee, the Landlords (to the extent permitted under
such Leases), any Holder under any Hotel Mortgage (to the extent permitted under such Hotel Mortgage), and their respective agents, shall have access to the Premises at any and all reasonable times for any purpose. Manager will be available to
consult with and advise such parties, at their reasonable request, concerning all policies and procedures affecting all phases of the conduct of business at the Hotels. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 WORKING CAPITAL AND INVENTORIES

 7.01 Working Capital and Inventories. The Lessee shall cause funds to be deposited in one or more
operating accounts established by Manager, in amounts sufficient to operate the Premises in accordance with the Annual Operating Budget, including the establishment and maintenance of positive Working Capital and Inventories as reasonably determined
by Manager. All Working Capital and Inventories are and shall remain the property of Lessee. In the event Lessee fails to advance funds which are necessary in order to maintain positive Working Capital and Inventories at reasonable levels for any of
the Hotels, Manager shall have the right to elect to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Lessee with respect to the affected applicable Hotel. During such sixty (60) day period, Lessee and Manager
shall use reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute over such Working Capital and Inventory requirements. If such dispute is not resolved, then this Agreement shall terminate with respect to the affected applicable Hotel on the sixtieth
(60th) day following Manager’s delivery of written notice of termination as provided above. If such dispute is resolved, then the notice will be deemed rescinded and this Agreement shall not be terminated pursuant to the notice with
respect to the affected applicable Hotel. Further, if Manager should so terminate this Agreement with respect 

  
 19 

 
to the affected applicable Hotel and if Manager in good faith incurs expenditures, or otherwise accrues liabilities in accordance with the Annual Operating Budget and variances allowed herein, in
each case, prior to the date of termination, Lessee agrees to promptly indemnify and hold Manager harmless from and against (i) any and all liabilities, costs and expenses properly incurred by Manager in connection with the operations of the
applicable Hotel through the date of Termination of this Agreement with respect to such Hotel, and (ii) any and all liabilities, costs and expenses properly incurred by Manager as a result of Lessee’s failure to perform any obligation or
pay any liability arising under any service, maintenance, franchise or other agreements, employment relationships (other than Excluded Employee Claims), leases or contracts pertaining to the applicable Hotel after Termination of this Agreement with
respect to such Hotel. Lessee acknowledges that liabilities arising in connection with the operation and management of the applicable Hotel including, without limitation, all Deductions, incurred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, are
and shall remain the obligations of Lessee, and Manager shall have no liability therefor unless otherwise expressly provided herein. 
 7.02 Fixed Asset Supplies. Lessee shall provide the funds necessary to supply the Premises initially with Fixed Asset Supplies as reasonably determined by Manager consistent with the cost
budgeted therefor in the Annual Operating Budget and otherwise consistent with the intent of the parties that the level of such supplies will be adequate for the proper and efficient operation of the Premises at the Applicable Standards. Fixed Asset
Supplies shall remain the property of Lessee. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT AND CHANGES 
 8.01 Routine and Non-Routine Repairs and Maintenance. Manager, at the expense of Lessee, shall maintain the Premises in good repair and condition as is required by the Applicable Standards.
Manager, on behalf of Lessee, shall make or cause to be made such routine maintenance, repairs and minor alterations as Manager from time to time deems reasonably necessary for such purposes, the cost of which: (i) can be expensed under GAAP,
(ii) shall be paid from Gross Revenues, and treated as a Deduction, and (iii) are consistent with the Annual Operating Budget. In addition, Manager shall make or cause to be made such non-routine repairs and maintenance, either to the
Premises’ building or FF&E, pursuant to the Capital Improvement Budget approved by Lessee and Landlord, the cost of which shall be paid for in the manner described in Section 8.02. Manager and Lessee shall use their respective best
efforts to prevent any liens from being filed against the Premises which arise from any maintenance, changes, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements in or to the Premises. Lessee and Manager shall cooperate fully in obtaining
the release of any such liens. If the lien arises as a result of the fault of either party, then the party at fault shall bear the cost of obtaining the lien release. All changes, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements made
pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the property of the Lessee. 
 8.02 Capital Improvement Reserve.

 A. Unless a Holder is requiring an escrow for such purposes, Manager shall establish (on behalf of Landlord),
in respect of each Fiscal Year during the term of this Agreement, a reserve account on each Hotel’s books of account (“Capital Improvement Reserve”) to cover the cost of: 

 

	 	1.	Replacements and renewals to the Premises’ FF&E; and 

  
 20 

	 	2.	Certain non-routine repairs and maintenance to the Hotel’s building(s) which are normally capitalized under GAAP such as, but not limited to, exterior and interior
repainting, resurfacing, building walls, floors, roofs and parking areas, and replacing folding walls and the like, and major repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacement to the Hotel’s building structure or to its mechanical,
electrical, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing or vertical transportation systems. 

B. For each Fiscal Year, the Capital Improvement Reserve shall be four per cent (4%) of the Hotel’s Gross
Revenues for the applicable year (or such other amount, either greater or lesser, if required by any Landlord, Holder or Franchisor), or in such other amount as agreed to by Landlord, Lessee and Manager. 

Payments of the percentage amounts specified above shall be made on an interim accounting basis as specified in
Section 11.02 hereof. Calculations and payments from the Capital Improvement Reserve made with respect to each Accounting Period shall be accounted for cumulatively for each Fiscal Year. After the close of each Fiscal Year, any adjustments
required by the Fiscal Year accounting shall be made by Manager. Any proceeds from the sale of the Premises’ FF&E no longer necessary to the operations of the Premises shall also be credited to the Capital Improvement Reserve. All payments
from the Capital Improvement Reserve shall be reserved and paid from Gross Revenues. Such payments and sale proceeds shall be placed in an escrow account or accounts consistent with the requirements of the Cash Management Agreements, if any. Any
interest earned in said account attributable to funds deposited pursuant to this Agreement shall be added to such Capital Improvement Reserve, thereby reducing the amount required to be placed in the account from Gross Revenues. 

C. Manager shall, in accordance with and subject to the Capital Improvement Budget described in Section 8.02E, from
time to time make such substitutions and replacements of or renewals to FF&E and non-routine repairs and maintenance as described in Section 8.01 as it deems necessary to maintain the Hotels as required by this Agreement. Except as
hereinafter provided, no expenditures will be made except as otherwise provided in the Capital Improvement Budget without the approval of Lessee and Landlord, and provided further, however, that if any such expenditures which are required by reason
of any (i) emergency, or (ii) applicable Legal Requirements, or (iii) the terms of the Franchise Agreement, or (iv) are otherwise required for the continued safe and orderly operation of the Hotels, Manager shall immediately give
Lessee and Landlord notice thereof and shall be authorized to take appropriate remedial action without such approval whenever there is a clear and present danger to life, limb or property of the Hotels or its guests or employees. The cost of all
such changes, repairs, alterations, improvements, 

  
 21 

 
renewals, or replacements will be paid for first from the Capital Improvement Reserve or other monies advanced by Lessee from funds received or owned by Landlord. At the end of each Fiscal Year
any amount remaining in the Capital Improvement Reserve in excess of the amounts unspent but contemplated to be spent pursuant to the Capital Improvement Budget for such Fiscal Year or as otherwise approved by Lessee and Landlord may be withdrawn by
the Lessee on behalf of Landlord. 
 D. All changes, repairs, alterations, improvements, renewals or replacements
made pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the property of Landlord. 
 E. Manager shall prepare a budget
(“Capital Improvement Budget”) of the expenditures necessary for replacement of FF&E and building repairs of the nature contemplated by Section 8.01 during the ensuing Fiscal Year and shall provide such Capital Improvement
Budget to Lessee and Landlord for approval at the same time Manager submits the Annual Operating Budget. The Capital Improvement Budget shall not be deemed accepted by Lessee and Landlord in the absence of their respective express written approval.
Not later than thirty (30) days after receipt by Lessee and Landlord of a proposed Capital Improvement Budget (or such longer period as Lessee and Landlord may reasonably request on Notice to the Manager), Lessee and/or Landlord may deliver a
Notice (a “CIB Objection Notice”) to the Manager stating that Lessee and/or Landlord objects to any information contained in or omitted from such proposed Capital Improvement Budget and setting forth the nature of such objections
with reasonable specificity. Failure of Lessee and/or Landlord to deliver a CIB Objection Notice shall be deemed rejection of the Manager’s proposed Capital Improvement Budget in its entirety. Upon receipt of any CIB Objection Notice, the
Manager shall, after consultation with Lessee and Landlord, modify the proposed Capital Improvement Budget, taking into account Lessee’s and/or Landlord’s objections, and shall resubmit the same to Lessee and Landlord for Lessee’s
approval within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and Lessee and/or Landlord may deliver further CIB Objection Notices (if any) within fifteen (15) days thereafter (in which event, the re-submission and review process described above in this
sentence shall continue until the proposed Capital Improvement Budget in question is accepted and consented to by Lessee and Landlord). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Lessee and Landlord shall have the right at any time
subsequent to the acceptance and consent with respect to any Capital Improvement Budget, on Notice to the Manager, to revise, with the reasonable approval of Manager, such Capital Improvement Budget or to request that the Manager prepare for
Lessee’s and/or Landlord’s approval a revised Capital Improvement Budget, taking into account such circumstances as Lessee and Landlord deem appropriate; provided, however, that the revision of a Capital Improvement Budget shall not be
deemed a revocation of the Manager’s authority with respect to such actions as the Manager may have already taken prior to receipt of such revision notice in implementing a previously approved budget or plan. Manager shall have the right and
discretion to expend funds from the Capital Improvement Reserve for replacements and renewals of FF&E in the Hotels’ interior public areas and guest rooms and routine maintenance, repairs and minor alterations during the Fiscal Year in
question (but not for any other capital expenditures) in accordance with the provisions of the Capital Improvement Budget. 

  
 22 

 F. It is the intent of Manager and Lessee to maintain the Premises in
conformance with the Applicable Standards. Accordingly, as the Hotels age, if the Capital Improvement Reserve established pursuant to the terms hereof is insufficient to meet such standards, and if the Capital Improvement Budget prepared in good
faith by Manager and approved by Lessee and Landlord exceeds the available and anticipated funds in the Capital Improvement Reserve, Lessee, Landlord and Manager will consider the matter and Lessee and Landlord may elect to: 

 

	 	1.	increase the annual reserve provision to provide the additional funds required; or 

 

	 	2.	obtain financing for the additional funds required. 

 G. In consideration of the Project Management Fee (as defined below), Manager shall be responsible for managing, coordinating, planning and executing the Capital Improvement Budget and all major
repositionings of the Hotels. In addition, Manager shall be paid additional fees at the rates set forth below (collectively, the “Market Service Fees”) for the following services (the “Project Related Services”) to
be provided in accordance with the Applicable Standards (with the understanding that Manager may subcontract at costs no less favorable than those provided herein for any or all of the following Project Related Services): 

 

	 	1.	Interior Design - With respect to any interior design elements involved in the implementation of the Capital Improvement Budget, Manager shall be responsible for
overseeing the development of conceptual plans (consistent with Lessee’s and Landlord’s objectives), shall arrange for preparation of specifications, coordinate and make all fabric, flooring, furniture and wall treatment selections (both
colors and finishes), coordinate reselections and document all selections in specification books as required under the terms of the Franchise Agreement and coordinate all related franchise approvals, and will manage the applicable Franchisor process
on approval of all selections relating to initial and final selections and will be paid a fee of 6.0% of the cost of materials designed. 

  

	 	2.	 Architectural - Manager shall, if applicable, make recommendations of engagement of architects, negotiate architectural agreements on behalf of
Lessee and Landlord (with Lessee’s and Landlord’s approval), manage all architects applicable to the implementation of the Capital Improvement Budget, oversee all conceptual designs and sketches, review all necessary plans, drawings, shop
drawings and other matters necessary for the proper implementation of the Capital Improvement Budget, and 

  
 23 

	 	
coordinate and manage all approvals necessary for the implementation of the Capital Improvement Budget such as Franchisor approvals, governmental approvals and Holder approvals. These services
are included in the scope of work and fee structure of the Project Management Fee. 

  

	 	3.	FF& E Procurement and related services as follows: 

 (a) FF&E Purchasing - Manager shall be responsible for the evaluation of all specifications and negotiations of all prices associated with the purchasing of FF&E, shall manage and issue all
purchase orders and place orders necessary for the proper and timely delivery of all FF&E. 
 (b) FF&E
Expediting/Freight Management - Manager shall be responsible for the expediting of all FF&E contemplated in an applicable Capital Improvement Budget including managing the freight selection and shipping process in a cost effective manner.

 (c) FF&E Warehousing - Manager shall be responsible, if applicable, for the management and
coordination of all warehousing of goods delivered at the job site, inspection of materials delivered, and the filing of all claims associated with the delivery of defective or damaged goods. 

(d) FF&E Installation and Supervision - Manager shall be responsible for the management and oversight of the
installation of all FF&E in compliance with specifications and Franchisor standards as required to implement the Capital Improvement Budget. 
 (e) As compensation for FF&E procurement and related services in subsections 3 (a) through (d), Manager shall be paid an 8.0% Procurement Fee; provided however that the Procurement Fee shall be
reduced to 6.0% when the cost of goods and materials procured by Manager for the applicable Hotel exceeds $2,000,000 in a single year. 
 Manager shall be paid a project management fee (herein, the “Project Management Fee”) equal to four percent (4%) of the total project costs associated with the implementation of the
Capital Improvement Budget (both hard and soft) payable monthly in arrears based upon the prior calendar month’s total expenditures under the Capital Improvement Budget until such time that the Capital Improvement Budget and/or renovation
project involves the expenditure of an amount in excess of five percent (5%) of the Gross Revenues of the applicable Hotel, whereupon the Project Management Fee shall be reduced to three percent (3%) of the total project costs in excess of
the five percent (5%) of Gross Revenue threshold. The Project Management Fee shall be accounted for and documented and consistent with the requirements of Section 11.02 herein. Any onsite or dedicated personnel required for the direct
supervision of the implementation of a Capital Improvement Budget or other renovation project will be a direct cost to, and shall be reimbursed by, the Lessee. 

  
 24 

 (f) Except as otherwise provided herein, in no event shall Manager realize
any kick backs, rebates, cash incentives, administration fees, concessions, profit participations, investment rights or similar payments or economic consideration from or in, as applicable, vendors or suppliers of goods or services. Manager agrees
that any such amounts or benefits derived shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lessee or Landlord (as applicable). 

ARTICLE IX 
 EMPLOYEES 
 9.01 Employee Hiring. Manager will
recruit, hire, train, promote, supervise, direct the work of and discharge all personnel working on the Premises. Manager shall be the sole judge of the fitness and qualification of such personnel and is vested with absolute discretion in the
hiring, discharging, supervision, and direction of such personnel during the course of their employment and in the operation of the Premises. 
 9.02 Costs; Benefit Plans. Manager shall fix the employees’ terms of compensation and establish and maintain all policies relating to employment, so long as they are reasonable and in
accordance with the Applicable Standards and the Annual Operating Budget. Without limiting the foregoing, Manager may, consistent with the applicable budgets, enroll the employees of the Hotels in pension, medical and health, life insurance, and
similar employee benefit plans (“Benefit Plans”) substantially similar to plans reasonably necessary to attract and retain employees and generally remain competitive. The Benefit Plans may be joint plans for the benefit of employees
at more than one hotel owned, leased or managed by Manager or Manager Affiliate Entities. Employer contributions to such plans (including any withdrawal liability incurred upon Termination of this Agreement) and reasonable administrative fees (but
without further markup by Manager), which Manager may expend in connection therewith, shall be the responsibility of Lessee and shall be a Deduction. The administrative expenses of any joint plans will be equitably apportioned by Manager among
properties covered by such plan. 
 9.03 Manager’s Employees. It is expressly understood and agreed that all
such personnel employed at the Hotels, including the Manager’s acting General Managers for each of the Hotels, will be the employees of Manager for all purposes including, without limitation, federal, state and local tax and reporting purposes,
but the expense incurred in connection therewith will be a Deduction and for Lessee’s account. A General Manager’s compensation, so long as such compensation is in line with the market, may be allocated to other Hotels owned or leased by
Lessee or affiliates of Lessee on a fair and equitable basis if the General Manager oversees and supervises other Hotel operations. Manager shall use such care when hiring any employees as may be common to professional management of the hospitality
business and consistent with the Manager’s standards of operation. Manager, as the employer of all of the Hotels’ employees, shall be entitled to all federal, state and/or local tax credits or benefits allowed to employers relating to the
Hotels’ employees including, without limitation, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit, the Targeted Jobs Tax Credit, and similar tax credits (provided that Manager shall pay all incremental fees, if applicable, to qualify for such tax credits).
Manager, in accordance with the Annual Operating Budget, may draw down from Gross Revenues all costs and expenses, of whatever nature, incurred in connection with such employees, including, but

  
 25 

 
not limited to, wages, salaries, on-site staff, bonuses, commissions, fringe benefits, employee benefits, recruitment costs, workmen’s compensation and unemployment insurance premiums,
payroll taxes, vacation and sick leave (collectively, “Employee Costs and Expenses”). 
 9.04 Special
Projects - Corporate Employees. The costs, fees, compensation and other expenses of any persons engaged by Manager to perform duties of a special nature, directly related to the operation of the Premises, including, but not limited to,
in-house or outside counsel, accountants, bookkeepers, auditors, employment search firms, marketing and sales firms, and similar firms of personnel, shall be operating expenses, payable from and consistent with the Annual Operating Budget and not
the responsibility of the Manager. So long as consistent with the Annual Operating Budget, the costs, fees, compensation and other expenses of those personnel of Manager assigned to special projects for the Hotels shall also be operating expenses
payable by the Lessee and not the responsibility of Manager. The daily per diem rate for those personnel shall be based upon the actual costs of Manager in providing its personnel for such special services or projects, without mark-up for fee or
profit but including salary and employee benefit costs, overhead costs, travel costs, costs of cell phones and Blackberries and long distance telephone. Such special services shall include, but not be limited to, those matters which are not included
within the scope of the duties to be performed by Manager hereunder (but which have been approved by Lessee) and, if not provided by Lessee, would involve the Lessee’s engagement of a third party to perform such services; for example, special
sales or marketing programs, market reviews, assistance in opening new food and beverage facilities, legal services, accounting services, tax services, insurance services, data processing, engineering personnel, and similar services. When corporate
staff employees are engaged in duties required under this Agreement, such employees shall be furnished and provided with rooms, food, beverages, laundry, and reasonable telephone services, as a Deduction. 

All reasonable travel related expenses for corporate employees of Manager traveling to and from a Hotel for the benefit of the Hotel will
be reimbursed to Manager. Lessee shall have the right to audit all such expenses. 
 9.05 Termination. At
Termination upon a sale of a Hotel or Hotels to a third party purchaser unrelated to Manager or Ashford, subject to Section 2.01 above, Lessee shall reimburse Manager for costs and expenses reasonably and actually incurred by Manager which
arise out of either the transfer to another Hotel or termination of Manager’s employees at the Hotels being sold, such as reasonable transfer costs, compensation in lieu of vacation and sick leave, severance pay (including a reasonable
allowance for severance pay for Executive Employees of the Hotels, the amount of such allowance not to exceed an amount equal to Manager’s then current severance benefits for such terminated Executive Employees, unless Lessee otherwise
approves), unemployment compensation, employer liability pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA liability) and WARN Act and other employment liability costs arising out of the termination of the employment of the
Manager’s employees at the Premises (herein collectively called “Employee Related Termination Costs”). This reimbursement obligation shall not apply to any corporate personnel of Manager assigned to the Hotels for special
projects or who perform functions for Manager at the corporate level. In order to be reimbursable hereunder, any Employee Related Termination Costs must be pursuant to policies of Manager which shall be consistent with those of other managers
managing similar hotels in similar markets and geographical locations and which shall be subject to review and 

  
 26 

 
reasonable approval of Lessee from time to time upon Notice from Lessee and which review and approval shall occur no more than one time during each Fiscal Year during the term of this Agreement.
The reimbursement obligations of Lessee under this Section 9.05 shall survive Termination. 
 9.06 Employee Use of
Hotel. Manager, in its reasonable discretion may (i) provide lodging for Manager’s Executive Employees and corporate staff visiting the Hotels in connection with the performance of Manager’s services hereunder and allow them
the use of the facilities of the Hotels, and (ii) provide the management of the Hotels with temporary living quarters within the Hotels and the use of all facilities of the Hotels, in either case at a discounted price or without charge, as the
case may be. Manager shall, on a space available basis, provide lodging at the Hotels for Lessee’s employees, officers, directors, agents and consultants visiting the Hotels and allow them the use of all facilities of the Hotels in either case
without charge, except for recreational facilities for which a charge will apply. 
 9.07 Non-Solicitation. During
the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, unless an Event of Default by Manager exists under this Agreement beyond applicable grace or cure periods, or the Agreement has been terminated as a result of an uncured
Event of Default by Manager, Lessee agrees that it (and its Affiliates) will not, without the prior written consent of Manager, either directly or indirectly, alone or in conjunction with any other person or entity, (i) solicit or attempt to
solicit any general manager (each a “General Manager” and, collectively, “General Managers”) of the Hotels or any other hotels managed by Manager or any of Manager’s Executive Employees (collectively, the
General Manager and Executive Employees are herein called the “Key Employees”) to terminate, alter or lessen Key Employees’ employment or affiliation with Manager or to violate the terms of any agreement or understanding
between any such Key Employee and Manager, as the case may be, or (ii) employ, retain, or contract with any Key Employee. 

9.08 Labor Contracts. As soon as is reasonably practicable, prior to entering into negotiations with any labor
organizations representing or desiring to represent Hotel employees, Manager shall notify Lessee of such negotiations and Lessee shall have the right to participate in such negotiations. Without Lessee’s prior written approval, which approval
may be withheld at is sole and absolute discretion, the Hotel shall not enter into any contract with any such labor organization; provided, that in the event that a strike or similar occurrence shall occur with respect to Hotel employees which
prevents the operation of the Hotel in the ordinary course of business in connection with Lessee’s failure to enter into a contract with any such labor organization, then Manager shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as to such Hotel
without penalty and without such termination being a default hereunder. 
 ARTICLE X 

BUDGET 
 10.01 Annual Operating Budget. Not less than sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year, Manager shall submit to Lessee for each of the Hotels, a budget (the
“Annual Operating Budget”) setting forth in detail an estimated profit and loss statement for the next twelve (12) Accounting Periods, or for the balance of the Fiscal Year in the event of a

  
 27 

 
partial first Fiscal Year, including a schedule of hotel room rentals and other rentals, estimated cash flow and a marketing and business plan for each of the Hotels, such budget to be
substantially in the format of Exhibit “D” attached hereto. 
 10.02 Budget Approval. The Annual
Operating Budget submitted to Lessee by Manager shall be subject to the approval of Lessee. The Annual Operating Budget shall not be deemed accepted by Lessee in the absence of its express written approval. Not later than thirty (30) days after
receipt by Lessee of a proposed Annual Operating Budget (or such longer period as Lessee may reasonably request on Notice to Manager), Lessee may deliver a notice to Manager setting forth its objections to the proposed Annual Operating Budget (an
“AOB Objection Notice”) with reasonable detail to the Manager stating that Lessee objects to any information contained in or omitted from such proposed Annual Operating Budget and setting forth the nature of such objections with
reasonable specificity. Failure of Lessee to deliver an AOB Objection Notice shall be deemed rejection of the Manager’s proposed Annual Operating Budget in its entirety. Upon receipt of any AOB Objection Notice, the Manager shall, after
consultation with Lessee, modify the proposed Annual Operating Budget, taking into account Lessee’s objections, and shall resubmit the same to Lessee for Lessee’s approval within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and Lessee may deliver
further AOB Objection Notices (if any) within fifteen (15) days thereafter (in which event, the re-submission and review process described above in this sentence shall continue until the proposed Annual Operating Budget in question is accepted
and consented to by Lessee). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Lessee shall have the right at any time subsequent to the acceptance and consent with respect to any Annual Operating Budget, on Notice to the Manager, to revise
such Annual Operating Budget or to request that the Manager prepare for Lessee’s approval a revised Annual Operating Budget (with the approval of Manager, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), taking into account such circumstances as
Lessee deems appropriate; provided, however, that the revision of an Annual Operating Budget shall not be deemed a revocation of the Manager’s authority with respect to such actions as the Manager may have already taken prior to receipt of such
revision notice in implementing a previously approved budget or plan. Lessee and Manager acknowledge and agree that the Annual Operating Budgets are merely forecasts of operating revenues and expenses for an ensuing year and shall be revised, by
agreement of Lessee and Manager, from time to time as business and operating conditions shall demand. However, Manager shall use its reasonable best efforts to operate the Premises in accordance with the Annual Operating Budget. The failure of any
of the Hotels to perform in accordance with such Annual Operating Budget shall not constitute a default by Manager of this Agreement. 
 10.03 Operation Pending Approval. If the Annual Operating Budget (or any component thereof) has not yet been approved by Lessee prior to any applicable Fiscal Year, then, until approval of
such Annual Operating Budget (or such component) by Lessee, Manager shall operate the Hotels substantially in accordance with the prior year’s Annual Operating Budget except for (a) those components of the Annual Operating Budget for the
applicable Fiscal Year approved by Lessee, (b) the Necessary Expenses which shall be paid as required, (c) the Emergency Expenses which shall be paid as required, and (d) those expenses that vary in correlation with Gross Revenues
and/or occupancy in the aggregate. 
 10.04 Budget Meetings. At each budget meeting and at any additional meetings
during a Fiscal Year reasonably called by Lessee or Manager, Manager shall consult with Lessee on 

  
 28 

 
matters of policy concerning management, sales, room rates, wage scales, personnel, general overall operating procedures, economics and operation and other matters affecting the operation of the
Hotels. 
 10.05 Lessee Representative. From time to time, Lessee may designate by written notice to Manager, a
representative or representatives, which initially shall be an Ashford executive, to act as a liaison between Lessee and Manager. Manager may rely on any written direction or approval given to it by such representative as being the direction or
approval of Lessee. Manager shall cooperate with such representative and meet with such representative upon request. 
 10.06
Periodic Reviews. At Lessee’s request, the General Manager of the Hotel shall meet with Lessee and/or its appointed representative on a monthly basis to review the Hotel’s operating performance, and, with respect to any
variances from the approved budget, any potential corrective action to be undertaken by Manager. On a quarterly basis, at Lessee’s request, Manager’s Divisional Vice President knowledgeable in the operating performance of the Hotel shall
meet with Lessee to review the Hotel’s operating performance against the Approved Annual Operating Budget. Lessee has the right from time to time to meet with Manager’s EVP-Operations. 

ARTICLE XI 
 OPERATING DISTRIBUTIONS 
 11.01 Management Fee. As
consideration for the services to be rendered by Manager pursuant to this Agreement as manager and operator of the Premises, Manager shall be paid the following Base Management Fee and Incentive Management Fee (as such terms are hereinafter
defined), collectively called the “Management Fee”, for each of the Hotels on a property by property basis as follows: 
 A. Base Management Fee. The base management fee (“Base Management Fee”) shall be equal to three percent (3%) of the Gross Revenues for each Accounting Period, to be
paid monthly in arrears. If this Agreement shall commence or expire on other than the first and last day of a calendar month, respectively, the Base Management Fee shall be apportioned based on the actual number of days of service in the month.

 B. Incentive Fee. The incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) shall be equal to the
lesser of (i) one percent (1%) of Gross Revenues for each Fiscal Year or (ii) the amount by which the actual House Profit exceeds the House Profit line item set forth in the Annual Operating Budget determined on a property by property
basis. The total Base and Incentive Fees for a given property shall in no event exceed four percent (4%) of Gross Revenues for that property per Fiscal Year. The Incentive Fee shall be payable annually in arrears within ninety (90) days
after the end of each Fiscal Year and shall be readjusted if necessary upon receipt of the annual audited financial statements. 

  
 29 

 11.02 Accounting and Interim Payment. 

A. Manager shall submit monthly, pursuant to Section 15.02, an interim accounting to Lessee showing Gross Revenues,
Deductions, Gross Operating Profit, Net Operating Income before Debt Service, owner’s distribution, 90 day projection of Cash Flow and reforecast through end of Fiscal Year. 

B. Calculations and payments of the Base Management Fee made with respect to each Accounting Period shall be made on an
interim accounting basis and shall be accounted for cumulatively for each Fiscal Year. After the end of each Fiscal Year, Manager shall submit to Lessee an accounting for such Fiscal Year, consistent with Section 15.03, which accounting shall
be controlling over the interim accountings. Any adjustments required by the Fiscal Year accounting shall be made promptly by the parties. 
 C. The Incentive Fee shall only be calculated and earned based upon actual House Profit exceeding agreed-upon House Profit for any given Fiscal Year or a portion thereof if the period of calculation
cannot include the full period from January 1 to December 31. 
 D. If Lessee raises no objection for
any reason (excluding fraud) within one (1) year from the receipt of annual accounting statements as provided herein (or for fraud within any applicable statute of limitations period), such accounting shall be deemed to have been accepted by
Lessee as true and correct, and Lessee shall have no further right to question its accuracy. Manager will provide Lessee profit and loss statements for the current period and year-to-date, including actual, budget and last year comparisons, as
required by Section 15.03. 
 ARTICLE XII

maintenance in amount and scope as available and market for the hotel lodging industry for hotels of similar type and in similar markets and geographical locations as the Hotels, public liability and indemnity and property insurance with minimum
limits of liability and on such terms as required by Lessee, the Landlords, any Holder, or Franchisors, if applicable, to protect Lessee, Landlord, Manager, any Holder, and any Franchisor, if applicable, against loss or damage arising in connection
with the development, construction, renovation, furnishing and equipping of the Premises (and pre-opening activities, if applicable), including, without limitation, the following:

which is acceptable to Lessee, and personal property insurance on the “Special Form” in the full amount of the replacement cost thereof; 
 (b) Insurance for loss or damage (direct and indirect) from steam boilers, pressure vessels or similar apparatus, now or hereafter installed in the Hotels, in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 or in such
greater amounts as are then customary or as may be reasonably requested by Lessee from time to time; 
 (c) Loss
of income insurance on the “Special Form”, in the amount of one year of the sum of Base Rent plus Percentage Rent (as such terms are defined in and as determined pursuant to the Leases) for the benefit of Landlords, and business
interruption insurance on the “Special Form” in the amount of one year of Gross Operating Profit, for the benefit of Lessee. All loss of income insurance proceeds shall be part of Gross Revenues; 

(d) Commercial general liability insurance, with amounts not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each
occurrence and $2,000,000.00 for the aggregate of all occurrences within each policy year, as well as excess liability (umbrella) insurance with limited of at least $35,000,000 per occurrence, covering each of the following: bodily injury, death, or
property damage liability per occurrence, personal and advertising injury, general aggregate, products and completed operations, and “all risk legal liability” (including liquor law or “dram shop” liability if
liquor or alcoholic beverages are served at the Hotels); 
 (e) Automobile insurance on vehicles operating in
conjunction with the Hotels with limits of liability of at least $1,000,000.00 combined, single limit coverage; and 
 (f) Insurance covering such other hazards and in such amounts as may be customary for comparable properties in the area of the Hotels and is available from insurance companies, insurance pools or other
appropriate companies authorized to do business in the State where the Hotels are located at rates which are economically practicable in relation to the risks covered as may be reasonably requested by Lessee and otherwise consistent with the costs
allocated therefor in the Annual Operating Budget. 
 12.01.2 Operational Insurance. 

(a) Workers’ compensation and employer’s liability insurance as may be required under Legal Requirements and as
Manager may deem reasonably prudent covering all of Manager’s employees at the Premises, with such deductible limits or self-insured retentions as may be reasonably established from time to time by Manager; 

  
 31 

 (b) Fidelity bonds, with limits and deductibles as may be reasonably
requested by Lessee, covering Manager’s employees in job classifications normally bonded under prudent hotel management practices in the United States or otherwise required by law; and 

(c) Such other insurance in amounts as Manager in its reasonable judgment deems advisable for its protection against
claims, liabilities and losses arising out of or connected with its performance under this Agreement, and otherwise consistent with the costs allocated therefor in the Annual Operating Budget. 

12.02 Replacement Cost. The term “full replacement cost” as used herein shall mean the actual replacement
cost of the Hotels requiring replacement from time to time including an increased cost of construction endorsement, if available, and the cost of debris removal. In the event either party to this Agreement believes that full replacement cost (the
then-replacement cost less such exclusions) has increased or decreased at any time during the Term, it shall have the right to have such full replacement cost re-determined. 
 12.03 Increase in Limits. If either party to this Agreement at any time deems the limits of the personal injury or property damage under the comprehensive commercial general liability
insurance then carried to be either excessive or insufficient, such parties shall endeavor in good faith to agree on the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance to be carried and such insurance shall thereafter be carried with the limits
thus agreed on until further change pursuant to the provisions of this Section. 
 12.04 Blanket Policy.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XII, Manager may include the insurance required hereunder within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Manager; provided,
however, that the coverage afforded to the parties as required herein will not be reduced or diminished or otherwise be different from that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Agreement by reason of the
use of such blanket policy of insurance, and provided further that the requirements of this Article XII are otherwise satisfied. 
 12.05 Costs and Expenses. Insurance premiums and any costs or expenses with respect to the insurance, including, without limitation, agent’s and consultant’s costs used to place
insurance or adjust claims, shall be Deductions. Premiums on policies for more than one year shall be charged pro-rata against Gross Revenues over the period of the policies and to the extent, through blanket policies, cover other hotels managed by
Manager or owned by Lessee or any of its Affiliates, shall be allocated based on rooms, number of employees, values or other methods as determined to be reasonable by Manager and Lessee. Any reserves, losses, costs, damages or expenses which are
uninsured, self-insured, or fall within deductible limits shall be treated as a cost of insurance and shall be Deductions, subject to Article XXV. All insurance coverage shall be competitively bid annually. 

12.06 Policies and Endorsements. 
 A. Where permitted and to the extent possible, all insurance provided for under this Article XII shall name Lessee as insured, and Manager, any Holder, the

  
 32 

 
Landlords, and, if required, the Franchisors, as additional insureds. The party procuring such insurance shall deliver to the other party certificates of insurance with respect to all policies so
procured, including existing, additional and renewal policies and, in the event of insurance about to expire, shall deliver certificates of insurance with respect to the renewal policies as required by the Loan Documents but in any event on or
before fifteen (15) days following any insurance renewal provided however that evidence of property insurance for properties covered in the PREI insurance program may be provided within twenty one (21) days after expiration. 

B. Other than policies provided under the PREI insurance program, all policies of insurance provided for under this
Article XII shall, to the extent obtainable, be with insurance companies licensed or authorized to do business in the state in which the Premises are located, with a minimum rating of A- or better in the Best’s Insurance Guide and an S&P
rating of at least A- (or such higher rating if so required by any Holder, Landlord or Franchisor), and shall have attached thereto an endorsement that such policy shall not be cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ (and for Texas
Hotels, ten (10) days’) prior written notice to Lessee, holder, loss payee and additional insureds. All insurance policies obtained pursuant to this Article XII shall contain a standard waiver of subrogation endorsement. 

ARTICLE XIII 
 TAXES AND DEBT SERVICE 
 13.01 Taxes. 

(a) All real estate and ad valorem property taxes, sales and use taxes, assessments and similar charges on or relating to
the Premises during the Term of this Agreement shall be paid by Manager, on behalf of Lessee, before any fine, penalty, or interest is added thereto or lien placed upon the Premises, unless payment thereof is stayed. All such payments shall be
reserved and paid from Gross Revenues and treated as Deductions in determining Net Operating Income. Gross Revenues reserved for such purposes shall be placed in an escrow account or accounts established pursuant to the requirements of any
applicable Holder. Interest earned in said account attributable to funds deposited pursuant to this Agreement shall be added to such reserve, thereby reducing the amount required to be placed in the account from Gross Revenues. 

(b) Manager shall cooperate in good faith to assist Lessee in monitoring all real estate taxes and assessments and
contesting or appealing such amounts. Upon Lessee’s request, Manager shall, as a Deduction, contest the validity or the amount of any such tax or assessment. Lessee agrees to cooperate with Manager and execute any documents or pleadings
required for such purpose, provided that Lessee is satisfied that the facts set forth in such documents or pleadings are accurate and that such execution or cooperation does not impose any unreasonable obligations on Lessee, and Lessee agrees to
reimburse Manager as a Deduction for all expenses occasioned to Manager by any such contest, provided that such expenses shall be approved by Lessee prior to the time that they are incurred. 

  
 33 

 13.02 Debt Service; Ground Lease Payments. In the event of a Hotel Mortgage
and/or Ground Lease and upon direction of Lessee, Manager shall establish an account (the “Property Service Account”) to pay Debt Service and/or Ground Lease Payments in such periodic payments as and to the extent required by any
applicable Holder under any applicable Hotel Mortgage and/or landlord under any Ground Lease. In the event sufficient funds are unavailable for the payment of Debt Service and/or Ground Lease Payments from the Property Service Account, then Manager
shall notify Lessee in writing of such insufficiency who shall in turn advise the Landlord under the applicable Lease to replenish the Property Service Account to provide funds for payment of Debt Service and/or Ground Lease Payments. 

ARTICLE XIV 
 BANK ACCOUNTS 
 All funds made available to Manager by Lessee for
operations of the Premises, exclusive of those amounts described in Article VIII, shall be deposited into a banking checking account or accounts to be established in the name of Lessee (the “Operating Account”), consistent with the
requirements of any Cash Management Agreements, if any. The Operating Account shall be interest bearing when possible. Subject to the limitation of Manager’s authority set forth herein, both Manager and a PRISA III representative on behalf of
Lessee shall be authorized to withdraw funds from said Operating Account, except that Lessee may withdraw funds from said account only if an Event of Default by Manager has occurred under this Agreement or an event has occurred that with the passage
of time might be an Event of Default by Manager. Prior to any such withdrawal by Lessee, Lessee shall provide Notice of same to Manager, and Manager shall not be liable to Lessee for any checks written by Manager for operating expenses which are
returned due to insufficient funds caused by such Lessee withdrawal. From time to time both Manager and Lessee shall designate signatory parties on such account and shall provide written notice of such designation or change in designation to the
other party, and the signatures of such persons shall be formally and expressly recognized by the bank in which such account or accounts are maintained. The bank or banks to be utilized shall be selected and approved by Lessee and Manager. All
monies received shall be deposited in, including, but not limited to, Gross Revenues, and expenses paid, including, but not limited to, Deductions, shall be paid from such bank checking account(s) except that Manager shall have the right to maintain
payroll and petty cash funds and to make payments therefrom as the same are customary and utilized in the lodging business. Such funds shall not be commingled with Manager’s funds. Lessee shall have the right, at its expense, to audit said
account or accounts at any reasonable time. 
 Manager may establish one or more separate bank accounts for handling payroll
costs. Such accounts shall be in a bank selected by Manager and approved by Lessee, and shall be handled exclusively by the individuals designated by Manager and approved in writing by Lessee. Funds shall be deposited in the payroll account or
accounts from the Operating Account, as needed, in order to meet payroll requirements. 
 Until otherwise prescribed by Lessee
in writing, the Operating Account shall be under the control of Manager, without prejudice, however, to Manager’s obligation to account to Lessee as and when provided herein. All receipts and income, including without limitation, Gross Revenues
shall be promptly deposited in the Operating Account. Checks or other documents of 

  
 34 

 
withdrawal shall be signed only by the individual representatives of Manager approved in writing by Lessee and duly recognized for such purpose by the bank or banks in which the referenced
accounts are maintained. Manager shall supply Lessee with fidelity bonds or other insurance insuring the fidelity of authorized signatories to such accounts, unless said bonds or other insurance shall have been placed by Lessee and delivered
directly by the bonding or insurance company to Lessee. The cost of such fidelity bonds or other insurance shall be a Deduction, at Lessee’s expense, and subject to Lessee’s approval. Neither Lessee nor Manager shall be responsible for any
losses occasioned by the failure or insolvency of the bank or banks in which the referenced accounts are maintained. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement and the payment to Manager of all amounts due Manager hereunder upon such
expiration or termination, as provided in this Agreement, all remaining amounts in the referenced accounts shall be transferred forthwith to Lessee, or made freely available to Lessee. 

Manager shall not be required to advance funds, and Manager shall not be obligated to incur any liability or obligation for Lessee’s
account, without assurance that necessary funds for the discharge thereof will be provided by Lessee. 
 All reserve accounts
established pursuant to this Agreement shall be placed in segregated interest-bearing accounts in the name of Lessee which interest shall be added to such reserve and serve to reduce the amount required to be placed in such reserve account.

 Lessee shall have the sole discretion to determine the type of account into which any funds described in this Article XIV are
to be invested and Manager understands that it is intended that such funds be invested in such a manner as will not jeopardize the REIT status of either AHT or PRISA III REIT. 
 ARTICLE XV 
 ACCOUNTING SYSTEM 

15.01 Books and Records. Manager shall maintain an adequate and separate accounting system in connection with its
management and operation of the Premises. The books and records shall be kept in accordance with GAAP and the Uniform System of Accounts (to the extent consistent with GAAP) and shall be maintained at all times either on the Premises, at the
principal office of the Manager, or in storage, for at least seven (7) years after the Fiscal Year to which the books and records relate. Lessee, the beneficial owners of Lessee, the Landlords (to the extent permitted under the Leases), any
Holder (to the extent permitted under the Hotel Mortgage), any Franchisor (to the extent permitted under any applicable Franchise Agreement), or their respective employees or duly authorized agents, shall have the right and privilege of examining
and inspecting the books and records at any reasonable time. Upon termination of this Agreement, all such books and records shall be turned over to Lessee so as to insure the orderly continuance of the operation of the Hotels; provided however, that
all such books and records thereafter shall be available to Manager at the Hotels at all reasonable times for inspection, audit, examination and copying for a period of seven (7) years. 

15.02 Monthly Financial Statements. Within fifteen (15) days following each Accounting Period, Manager shall furnish
Lessee with respect to each of the Hotels an accrual 

  
 35 

 
basis balance sheet (including supporting schedules) on Manager’s standard format in reasonable detail (including without limitation those items set forth in Section 11.02 A. hereof),
together with a reasonably detailed accrual basis profit and loss statement for the calendar month next preceding and with a cumulative calendar year accrual basis profit and loss statement to date, including a comparison to the Annual Operating
Budget and the Capital Improvements Budget and a statement of cash flows for each monthly and cumulative period for which a profit and loss statement is prepared. Further, Manager shall provide a statement of bank account balances, an allocation to
reserve accounts, a sources and uses statement, a narrative discussing any of the aforementioned reports and variances from the Annual Operating Budget and the Capital Improvements Budget, such other reports and financial statements as Lessee may
reasonably request and as are customarily provided by managers of similar hotel properties in the area of the Hotels without Manager receiving additional fees to provide same. 
 15.03 Annual Financial Statements. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, Manager shall furnish to Lessee year-end financial statements for the Hotels (including a
balance sheet, income statement and statement of sources and uses of funds) which statements shall be unaudited and shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and the Uniform System of Accounts (to the extent consistent with GAAP). Lessee will engage
an independent national certified public accounting firm with hospitality experience to provide audited annual financial statements. Manager shall cooperate in all respects with such accountant in the preparation of such statements, including the
delivery of any financial information generated by Manager pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and reasonably required by the Lessee’s accountant to prepare such audited financial statements. 

ARTICLE XVI 
 PAYMENT BY LESSEE 
 16.01 Payment of Base Management
Fee. On the fifth (5th) day of each month during the term of this Agreement, Manager shall be paid out of the Operating Account, the Base Management Fee for the preceding Accounting Period, as determined from the books and records
referred to in Article XV. 
 16.02 Distributions. Subject to retention of Reasonable Working Capital (including
any amounts as required by the Capital Improvement Budget) and retention of such reserves as may be required under any Hotel Mortgage and/or Ground Lease, as applicable, Manager shall deliver to Lessee from the Operating Account, any excess Working
Capital for the preceding Accounting Period on the 25th day of the following month, and such amounts of Lessee’s money in the possession or under the control of Manager as Lessee shall from time to time request. For purposes of this Article
“Reasonable Working Capital” shall mean an amount reasonably determined by Manager at the same time as the monthly financial statements are prepared pursuant to Section 15.02 hereof, but in no event to exceed a sum equal to a
ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 2:1 (but excluding from such calculation cash restricted or unavailable under any Cash Management Agreement). 

  
 36 

 ARTICLE XVII 

RELATIONSHIP AND AUTHORITY 
 Lessee and Manager shall not be construed as partners, joint venturers or as members of a joint enterprise and neither shall have the power to bind or obligate the other except as set forth in this
Agreement. Nevertheless, Manager is granted such authority and power as may be reasonably necessary for it to carry out the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement, either alone or in conjunction with any other documents, shall not be deemed to
constitute a lease of any portion of the Premises. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit or restrict Manager or any affiliate of Manager from operating, owning, managing, leasing or constructing any hotel of any nature or description which may in
any manner compete with that of the Premises. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (a) all debts and liabilities to third persons incurred by Manager in the course of its operation and management of the Hotels in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement shall be the debts and liabilities of Lessee only, and (b) Manager shall not be liable for any such obligations by reason of its management, supervision, direction and operation of the Hotels as agent for
Lessee. Manager may so inform third parties with whom it deals on behalf of Lessee and may take any other reasonable steps to carry out the intent of this paragraph. 
 ARTICLE XVIII 
 DAMAGE, CONDEMNATION AND FORCE MAJEURE

 18.01 Damage and Repair. If, during the Term hereof, a Hotel is damaged or destroyed by fire, casualty,
or other cause, Lessee may elect, subject to the requirements of the applicable underlying Lease, to repair or replace the damaged or destroyed portion of the Hotel to the same condition as existed previously. In the event Lessee chooses not to
repair or replace the underlying Lease relating to such damaged Hotel is terminated pursuant to the provisions of such Lease, Lessee may terminate this Agreement with respect to such Hotel upon sixty (60) days’ Notice from the date of such
damage or destruction, in which case this Agreement shall then terminate with respect to such Hotel sixty (60) days from the date of such notice and neither party shall have any further rights, obligations, liabilities or remedies one to the
other hereunder with respect to such Hotel, except as otherwise provided in Article II (provided that no termination fees shall be payable by Lessee pursuant to Article II) and Section 18.04. If this Agreement remains in effect with respect to
such damaged Hotel and the damage does not result in a reduction of Gross Revenues at such Hotel, the Management Fee will be unabated. If however, this Agreement remain in effect with respect to such Hotel, but the damage does result in a reduction
of Gross Revenues at such Hotel, Lessee shall be entitled to partial, pro rata abatement with respect to the Management Fee until such time as such Hotel is restored. 
 18.02 Condemnation. 
 A. In the event all or
substantially all of a Hotel shall be taken in any eminent domain, condemnation, compulsory acquisition, or similar proceeding by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to
such Hotel, subject to the requirements of the 

  
 37 

 
applicable underlying Lease. However, in any event of such termination, Lessee shall attempt to give Manager at least fifteen (15) days prior Notice of such termination. In the event of such
termination, neither party shall have any further rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities one to the other hereunder with respect to such Hotel except as otherwise provided in Article II above (provided that no termination fees shall be payable
by Lessee pursuant to Article II). 
 B. If a portion of the Premises shall be taken by the events described in
Section 18.02A or the entire Premises are temporarily affected, the result of either of which is not to make it, in the reasonable business judgment of Lessee, unreasonable to continue to operate the applicable Hotel, subject to the
requirements of the applicable underlying Lease, this Agreement shall not terminate with respect to such Hotel. However, so much of any award for any such partial taking or condemnation shall be made available to the extent necessary to render the
applicable Premises equivalent to its condition prior to such event and the balance shall be paid to Lessee or the Holder, if required by any Hotel Mortgage covering the Premises. 

18.03 Force Majeure. If an event of Force Majeure directly involves a Hotel and has a significant adverse effect upon the
continued operations of such Hotel, then Lessee shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement with respect to the applicable Hotel by written Notice within sixty (60) days from the date of such Force Majeure, and this Agreement shall then
terminate with respect to the applicable Hotel sixty (60) days from such notice, in which event neither Lessee nor Manager shall have any further rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities, one to the other, hereunder, with respect to the
applicable Premises except as otherwise provided in Article II (provided that no termination fees shall be payable by Lessee pursuant to Article II). 
 18.04 No Liquidated Damages if Condemnation or Force Majeure. No liquidated damages shall be payable in the event of a condemnation relating to any of the Hotels, provided that Manager shall
be entitled to seek recovery from the condemning authority for its loss of contract and this Agreement shall not terminate for that purpose. No liquidated damages shall be payable by Lessee as a result of its termination of this Agreement pursuant
to Section 18.01 or 18.03 (Force Majeure). 
 ARTICLE XIX 

DEFAULT AND TERMINATION 
 19.01 Events of Default. The following shall constitute events of default (each an “Event of Default”): 

A. The filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or a petition for reorganization under any bankruptcy
law by Lessee or Manager or the admission by either party that is unable to pay its debts as they become due; 

B. The consent to any involuntary petition in bankruptcy or the failure to vacate, within sixty (60) days from the
date of entry thereof, any order approving an involuntary petition by Lessee or Manager; 

  
 38 

 C. The entering of an order, judgment or decree by any court of competent
jurisdiction, on the application of a creditor, adjudicating Lessee or Manager as bankrupt or insolvent, or approving a petition seeking reorganization or appointing a receiver, trustee, or liquidator of all or a substantial part of such
party’s assets, and such order, judgment or decree continues unstayed and in effect for any period of sixty (60) days or more; 
 D. The appointment of a receiver for all or any substantial portion of the property of Lessee or Manager; 
 E. The failure of Lessee or Manager to make any payment required to be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt of Notice, specifying said default with
reasonable specificity, when such payment is due and payable; or 
 F. The failure of Lessee or Manager to
perform, keep or fulfill any of the other covenants, undertakings, obligations or conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the continuance of such default for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of said failure; provided,
however, if such default cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period and Lessee or Manager, as the case may be, commences to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds
to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended so long as it shall require Lessee or Manager, as the case may be, in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default, it being agreed that no such extension (including the
original 30 day cure period) shall be for a period in excess of sixty (60) days. 
 G. The lapse of any
insurance policy required to be maintained by Manager pursuant to this Agreement within ten (10) days after written notice that such insurance policy has lapsed. 

H. Fraud, willful misconduct or misappropriation of funds by Manager’s corporate executives or Executive Employees if
Manager does not promptly take appropriate corrective action and make Lessee whole following such event. 
 19.02
Consequence of Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the non-defaulting party may give the defaulting party Notice of intention to terminate this Agreement (such termination to occur at any time after the expiration of
any applicable grace or cure period provided in Section 19.01), this Agreement shall terminate, whereupon the non-defaulting party shall be entitled to pursue all of its rights and remedies, at law or in equity, under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, any indemnity obligations which shall survive termination of this Agreement) and any other rights and remedies available under Legal Requirements except as otherwise expressly limited by the terms of Article II. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that an Event of Default is applicable to one or more of the Hotels but not all of the Hotels, such termination shall only be as to such applicable Hotel(s) and any remedy pursued by Manager shall only be against the
applicable Lessee, it being understood and agreed that the liability of the Lessees is several and not joint. 

  
 39 

 19.03 Lender’s Cure Right. Manager agrees to provide copies of any
written notice of an Event of Default delivered to Lessee hereunder to any Lender under a Hotel Mortgage if Lessee has provided Manager with such Lender’s notice address. Upon an Event of Default of Lessee hereunder, such Lender shall have the
opportunity to cure such Event of Default within the time period provided herein and Manager shall forbear from terminating this Agreement so long as such Lender has commenced cure and diligently pursues cure during such time period. 

19.04 AHT Caused Default. The parties agree that any occurrence which would otherwise constitute an Event of Default by
Lessee hereunder shall not be an Event of Default if such was the result of the actions or inactions of AHT or its affiliates as a member of PIM. 
 ARTICLE XX 
 WAIVER AND INVALIDITY 

20.01 Waiver. The failure of either party to insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms or provisions of this
Agreement or to exercise any option, right or remedy herein contained, shall not be construed as a waiver or as a relinquishment for the future of such term, provision, option, right or remedy, but the same shall continue and remain in full force
and effect. No waiver by either party of any term or provision hereof shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by such party. 
 20.02 Partial Invalidity. In the event that any portion of this Agreement shall be declared invalid by order, decree or judgment of a court, this Agreement shall be construed as if such
portion had not been inserted herein except when such construction would operate as an undue hardship on the Manager or Lessee or constitute a substantial deviation from the general intent and purpose of said parties as reflected in this Agreement,
in which event it shall be terminated. 
 ARTICLE XXI 

ASSIGNMENT 
 Subject to the requirements of any Hotel Mortgage, Franchise Agreement, Ground Lease or any of the Leases, neither party shall assign or transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) or permit the
assignment or transfer of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other (which may be withheld in its sole discretion) and any such prohibited assignment or transfer shall be null and void; provided, however, that Manager shall have
the right, without such consent, to assign its interest in this Agreement to any “Manager Affiliate Entity” provided such Manager Affiliate Entity qualifies as an Eligible Independent Contractor as of the date of such transfer and
agrees to make and be bound by any representations and covenants relating to “eligible independent contractor” status set forth in Section 28.08. The term “Manager Affiliate Entity” shall mean any entity controlled
directly or indirectly by (i) Archie Bennett, Jr. and/or Monty Bennett, (ii) family partnerships or trusts (the sole members or beneficiaries of which are at all times lineal descendants of Archie Bennett, Jr. or Monty Bennett (including
step children) and spouses of any of the foregoing so long as such partnerships or trusts are directed day to day by Archie Bennett or Monty Bennett, and/or (iii) Mark Sharkey. For purposes hereof,

  
 40 

 
“controlled” shall mean (i) the possession, directly or indirectly of a majority of the voting power and capital stock or ownership interest of such entity, or (ii) the
power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity in the capacity of chief executive officer, president, chairman, or other similar capacity where they are actively engaged and/or involved in providing such
direction or control and spend a substantial amount of time managing such entity. In addition, Manager, without the consent of Lessee, shall have the right to assign from time to time this Agreement and its rights and interest hereunder to any
successor or assignee of Manager resulting from any merger, consolidation or reorganization with, or any sale or assignment to, any corporation, individual, partnership or other entity acquiring all of substantially all of Manager’s hotel
management business or any Affiliate or successor thereof provided that such successor or transferee qualifies as an Eligible Independent Contractor as of such date and agrees to make and be bound by any representations and covenants relating to
“eligible independent contractor” status set forth in Section 28.08. Upon such a transfer Lessee may terminate this Agreement upon no less than thirty (30) days written notice to Manager without payment of a termination fee. Any
permitted assignee shall be deemed to be the Manager for purposes of this Agreement provided such assignee assumes all of Manager’s future obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably acceptable to Lessee. Any
and all such assignments, however, shall at all times be subject to the prior right, title and interest of Lessee with respect to the Premises. An assignment by Manager or any permitted assignee of its interest in this Agreement, shall not relieve
Manager or any such permitted assignee, as the case may be, from their respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, their permitted successors and assigns. For purposes of this Article XXI any
change in the ownership of the Manager or other event that would cause the Manager to fail to be a Manager Affiliate Entity shall be deemed to be a transfer of this Agreement, prohibited by this Article XXI unless first consented to in writing by
Lessee.

 SUBORDINATION 

23.01 Subordination. This Agreement shall be subject and subordinate to any Hotel Mortgage and Lease, and Manager agrees to
enter into a lender-manager or landlord-manager (as applicable) agreement with respect to each Hotel, which agreement shall contain reasonable provisions, including, without limitation, Manager’s acknowledgment that its real estate interest in
and to the applicable Hotel, if any, created by this Agreement is subject and subordinate to the

applicable Hotel Mortgage or Lease, including providing any purchaser of such Hotel at a foreclosure sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, including the Holder, with the right to terminate this
Agreement with respect to the applicable Hotel; provided, however, in no event will Manager agree to subordinate or waive its right to receive fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments under this Agreement arising prior to termination (but
(a) if this Agreement is terminated by the Holder or such purchaser or Landlord (or its assignee) with respect to such Hotel, Manager shall not look to the Holder for payment of such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments and
Manager’s right to receive such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments shall be subordinated to the Holder’s rights and (b) if this Agreement is not terminated by the Holder or such purchaser with respect to such Hotel, then
such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments shall be payable by the Holder or such purchaser). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall in no event be obligated to perform its duties hereunder without payment and/or reasonable
assurance of payment of such fees, reimbursements or indemnification payments. So long as Lessee provides Manager with a summary of and copies of the applicable provisions of Hotel Mortgage and loan documents and there are funds available to do so
Manager agrees to comply with such provisions of the Hotel Mortgage or related loan document. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything herein to the contrary, to the extent there is a conflict between the Hotel Mortgage or a related loan document
and this Agreement the terms of such Hotel Mortgage or loan document shall prevail so long as such Hotel Mortgage or loan document does not alter the economic terms of this Agreement or materially change Manager’s liability or obligations
hereunder, provided, however, Manager agrees that in the event of a conflict between any subordination agreement to which it is a party and this Agreement, the terms of such subordination agreement shall prevail even if such subordination agreement
alters the economic terms of this Agreement or materially changes Manager’s liability or obligations hereunder. 
 23.02

(the “Licensor”) and/or Six Continents Hotels, Inc. (“SCH”). If the Crowne Plaza License Agreement listed on Exhibit C attached hereto with regard to the Crowne Plaza Atlanta-Ravinia Hotel, shall terminate, the
Manager shall cease operating such Hotel as a Crowne Plaza Hotel. If there is any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Crowne Plaza License Agreement, the terms of the Crowne Plaza License Agreement shall govern and
control. Notwithstanding the consent of Licensor and SCH to this Agreement, the applicable Lessee and any guarantors shall remain liable to Licensor and/or SCH under the terms of the Crowne Plaza License Agreement. 

ARTICLE XXIV 
 PROPRIETARY MARKS: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 
 24.01 Proprietary
Marks. During the Term of this Agreement, the name “Remington,” whether used alone or in connection with other another word(s), and all proprietary marks (being all present and future trademarks, trade names, symbols, logos,
insignia, service marks, and the like) of Manager or any one of its Manager Affiliate Entities, whether or not registered (“Proprietary Marks”) shall in all events remain the exclusive

  
 43 

 
property of Manager and its Manager Affiliate Entities. Lessee shall have no right to use any Proprietary Mark, except during the term of this Agreement to have signage installed using any
Proprietary Mark in conformance with the specifications provided by Manager. Upon Termination, any use of a Proprietary Mark by Lessee under this Agreement shall immediately cease. Upon Termination, Manager shall have the option to purchase, at
their then book value, any items of the applicable Hotel’s Inventories and Fixed Asset Supplies as may be marked with a Proprietary Mark. In the event Manager does not exercise such option, Lessee agrees that it will use any such items not so
purchased exclusively in connection with Hotels until they are consumed. 
 24.02 Computer Software and Equipment.
All “Software” (meaning all computer software and accompanying documentation, other than software which is commercially available, which are used by Manager in connection with the property management system, any reservation system
and all future electronic systems developed by Manager for use in the Hotels) is and shall remain the exclusive property of Manager or any one of its Manager Affiliate Entities (or the licensor of such Software, as the case may be), and Lessee shall
have no right to use, or to copy, any Software. Upon Termination, Manager shall have the right to remove from the Hotels, without compensation to Lessee, all Software, and any computer equipment which is utilized as part of a centralized property
management system or is otherwise considered proprietary by Manager, excepting any software which is owned by the applicable Franchisor; provided that Manager shall cooperate with Lessee in the transition of the centralized management system to the
new manager, including in the change of any Software and computer equipment. If any of such computer equipment is owned by Lessee or Landlord, Manager shall reimburse Lessee for previous expenditures made by Lessee for the purchase of such
equipment, subject to a reasonable allowance for depreciation. 
 24.03 Intellectual Property. All
“Intellectual Property” (meaning all Software and manuals, brochures and directives issued by Manager to its employees at the Hotels regarding procedures and techniques to be used in operating the Hotels) shall at all times be
proprietary to Manager or its Affiliates, and shall be the exclusive property of Manager or its Affiliates. Upon Termination, all Intellectual Property shall be removed from the Hotels by Manager, without compensation to Lessee. 

24.04 Books and Records. All Books and Records maintained with respect to the Hotels, including guest records but excluding
employee records, shall be the sole property of Lessee but may be used by the Manager during the Term in connection with its management and operation of the Hotels. 
 ARTICLE XXV 
 INDEMNIFICATION 

25.01 Manager Indemnity. Manager shall indemnify and hold Lessee (and Lessee’s agents, principals, shareholders,
partners, members, officers, directors, attorneys and employees) harmless from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) which are not
covered by insurance proceeds that may be incurred by or asserted against any such party and that arise from (a) the 

  
 44 

 
fraud, willful misconduct or gross negligence of Manager; provided, however, that the act or omission of any employee of Manager who is not an Executive Employee, which act or omission is willful
or constitutes fraud or gross negligence on the part of such employee, shall not constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Manager unless Manager’s home office or regional staff, or an Executive Employee, acted
with gross negligence in employing, training, supervising or continuing the employment of such employee; (b) the infringement of any of Manager’s intellectual property rights (including trademarks, software, etc.) on the intellectual property
rights of any third party; (c) any Excluded Employee Claims; (d) knowing or reckless placing, discharge, leakage, use or storage, of hazardous materials on the Premises or in the Hotels by Manager during the Term of this Agreement as set
forth in Section 28.09C; or (e) the breach by Manager of any provision of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any action taken by Manager which is beyond the scope of Manager’s authority under this Agreement, which is not
cured within any applicable notice and cure periods. Lessee shall promptly provide Manager with written notice of any claim or suit brought against it by a third party which might result in such indemnification. 

25.02 Lessee Indemnity. Except with respect to matters for which Manager is obligated to provide indemnification pursuant
to Section 25.01, Lessee shall indemnify and hold Manager (and Manager’s agents, principals, shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, attorneys and employees) harmless from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, damages,
costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) which are not covered by insurance proceeds and that may be incurred by or asserted against such party and that arise from or in connection with
(a) the performance of Manager’s services under and in accordance with this Agreement; (b) the condition or use of the Hotels, to the fullest extent permitted by law, including without limitation, any injury to person(s) or damage to
property or business by reason of any cause whatsoever in or about the Hotels; (c) any Employee Related Termination Costs, including any liability to which Manager is subjected pursuant to the WARN Act in connection with the termination of this
Agreement, provided that Manager has provided notices in the form (other than any reference to the time period) required by the WARN Act within five (5) business days of Manager’s receipt of a notice of the termination of this Agreement
(excluding any termination of this Agreement which results from the commission of any theft, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of funds of the Hotels or from the Lessee or any fraud or felony by any Executive Employee that relates to
or materially affects the operation or reputation of the Hotels); (d) the Employee Costs and Expenses as set forth in Article IX herein above; or (e) any Employee Claims, but excluding any Excluded Employee Claims. Manager shall promptly
provide Lessee with written Notice of any claim or suit brought against it by a third party which might result in such indemnification. THIS INDEMNITY PROVISION IS INTENDED TO INDEMNIFY MANAGER (i) AGAINST THE CONSEQUENCES OF ITS OWN NEGLIGENCE
OR FAULT WHEN MANAGER IS SOLELY NEGLIGENT OR CONTRIBUTORILY, PARTIALLY, JOINTLY, COMPARATIVELY OR CONCURRENTLY NEGLIGENT WITH LESSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON (BUT IS NOT GROSSLY NEGLIGENT, HAS NOT COMMITTED AN INTENTIONAL ACT OR MADE INTENTIONAL
OMISSION) AND (ii) AGAINST ANY LIABILITY OF MANAGER BASED ON ANY APPLICABLE DOCTRINE OF STRICT LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lessee’s indemnity obligation shall be several and only the Lessee of a
specific Hotel pursuant to which the indemnity obligation relates shall be liable to Manager hereunder. 

  
 45 

 25.03 Indemnification Procedure. Any party obligated to indemnify the other
party under this Agreement (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall have the right, by Notice to the other party, to assume the defense of any claim with respect to which the other party is entitled to indemnification hereunder. If the
Indemnifying Party gives such notice, (i) such defense shall be conducted by counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and approved by the other party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided, however, that the other
party’s approval shall not be required with respect to counsel designated by the Indemnifying Party’s insurer); (ii) so long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting such defense with reasonable diligence, the Indemnifying Party shall
have the right to control said defense and shall not be required to pay the fees or disbursements of any counsel engaged by the other party for services rendered after the Indemnifying Party has given the Notice provided for above to the other
party, except if there is a conflict of interest between the parties with respect to such claim or defense; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, without the consent of the other party, to settle such claim, but only provided
that such settlement involves only the payment of money, the Indemnifying Party pays all amounts due in connection with or by reason of such settlement and, as part thereof, the other party is unconditionally released from all liability in respect
of such claim. The other party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim being defended by the Indemnifying Party at the expense of the other party, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control such defense
(other than in the event of a conflict of interest between the parties with respect to such claim or defense). In no event shall (i) the other party settle any claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party so long as the Indemnifying
Party is conducting the defense thereof in accordance with this Agreement; or (ii) if a claim is covered by the Indemnifying Party’s liability insurance, take or omit to take any action which would cause the insurer not to defend such
claim or to disclaim liability in respect thereof. 
 25.04 Survival. The provisions of this Article XXV shall
survive the termination of this Agreement with respect to acts, omissions and occurrences arising during the Term. 
 25.05
No Successor Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Manager shall not be liable as a successor employer or entity for any actions Manager’s predecessors may have taken in the employer-employee relationship
with Manager’s current or former employees or employees of Manager’s agents before the commencement of the term. 

ARTICLE XXVI 
 [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED] 
 ARTICLE XXVII 

GOVERNING LAW VENUE 
 This Agreement and its interpretation, validity and performance shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. In the event any court of law of
appropriate judicial authority shall hold or declare that the law of another jurisdiction is applicable, this Agreement shall remain enforceable under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that venue for any action in
connection herewith shall be proper in New York County, New York. Each party hereto consents to the 

  
 46 

 
jurisdiction of any local, state or federal court situated in any of such locations and waives any objection which it may have pertaining to improper venue or forum non conveniens to the conduct
of any proceeding in any such court. 
 ARTICLE XXVIII 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 28.01 Rights to Make Agreement. Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither the execution of this Agreement nor the finalization of the transactions contemplated hereby shall
violate any provision of law or judgment, writ, injunction, order or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over it; result in or constitute a breach or default under any indenture, contract, other commitment or
restriction to which it is a party or by which it is bound; or require any consent, vote or approval which has not been given or taken. Each party covenants that it has and will continue to have throughout the term of this Agreement and any
extensions thereof, the full right to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder. 
 28.02
Agency. Manager’s limited agency coupled with an interest established by this Agreement may not be terminated by Lessee until the expiration of the Term of this Agreement except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. To the
extent the nature of the relationship of the parties is inconsistent with or would have the effect of expanding, modifying, limiting or restricting any of the terms of this Agreement the terms of this Agreement shall control. 

28.03 Failure to Perform. If Manager or Lessee at any time fails to make any payments as specified or required hereunder or
fails to perform any other act required on its part to be made or performed hereunder without limitation, then the other party after thirty (30) days’ written notice to the defaulting party may (but shall not be obligated to) pay any such
delinquent amount or perform any such other act on the defaulting party’s part. Any sums thus paid and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the making of such payment or the proper performance of any such act, together with
interest thereon at the lesser of (i) the interest rate allowed by the applicable usury laws or (ii) at the Prime Rate plus three percent (3%), from the date that such payment is made or such costs and expenses incurred, shall constitute a
liquidated amount to be paid by the defaulting party under this Agreement to the other party on demand. For the purposes of this Section 28.03, the term “Prime Rate” shall mean the “prime rate” as published in
the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal; however, if such rate is, at any time during the Term of this Agreement, no longer so published, the term “Prime Rate” shall mean the average of the prime
interest rates which are announced, from time to time, by the three (3) largest banks (by assets) headquartered in the United States which publish a “prime rate”. 

28.04 Headings. Headings of Articles and Sections are inserted only for convenience and are in no way to be construed as a
limitation on the scope of the particular Articles or Sections to which they refer. 
 28.05 Attorneys’ Fees and
Costs. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other
relief to which such party may be entitled. 

  
 47 

 28.06 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with other writings signed by
the parties expressly stated to be supplementary hereto and together with any instruments to be executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior understandings and
writings, and may be changed only by a writing signed by the parties hereto. 
 28.07 Consents. Whenever the
consent or approval of Lessee is required under the terms of this Agreement, unless otherwise stated to the contrary, such consent or approval may be granted or withheld by Lessee in its sole discretion. 

28.08 Eligible Independent Contractor. During the Term of this Agreement, Manager shall at all times qualify as an
“eligible independent contractor” as defined in Section 856(d)(9) of the Code with respect to each of AHT and PRISA III REIT (“Eligible Independent Contractor”). To that end, during the Term of this Agreement,
Manager agrees that: 
 (a) Manager shall not conduct wagering activities at or in connection with any of the
Hotels; 
 (b) Manager shall not own, directly or indirectly (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(5) of the
Code), more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the outstanding stock of AHT or PRISA III REIT; 
 (c) no more
than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Manager’s partnership interest (in its assets or net profits) shall be owned (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), directly or indirectly, by one or more persons owning
thirty-five percent (35%) (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(5) of the Code) or more of the outstanding stock of AHT or PRISA III REIT; 
 (d) none of AHT, PRISA III REIT, the Partnership, the Landlords or the Lessees nor any direct or indirect subsidiary of any of the foregoing, shall derive or receive any income from the Manager or any of
its subsidiaries; and 
 (e) Manager (or a person who is a “related person” within the meaning
of Section 856(d)(9)(F) of the Code (a “Related Person”) with respect to Manager) shall be actively engaged in the trade or business of operating “qualified lodging facilities” within the meaning of
Section 856(d)(9)(D) of the Code (defined below) for one or more persons who are not Related Persons with respect to AHT, PRISA III REIT, the Partnership, Landlord, TRS or Lessee or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the foregoing
(“Unrelated Persons”). For purposes of determining whether the requirement of this paragraph (e) has been met, Manager shall be treated as being “actively engaged” in such a trade or business if Manager
(i) is actively engaged in the trade or business of operating at least three “qualified lodging facilities” for Unrelated Persons, and intends to continue to be actively engaged in such trade or business or (ii) complies with any
regulations or other administrative guidance under Section 856(d)(9) of the Code that provide a “safe harbor” rule with respect to the hotel management business with Unrelated Persons that

  
 48 

 
is necessary to qualify as an “eligible independent contractor” within the meaning of such Code section; provided, however, that Manager acknowledges that any private letter
ruling issued to AHT in respect of Manager’s eligible independent contractor status shall in no way be deemed to constitute administrative guidance or a safe harbor for purposes of determining whether Manager satisfies the requirements of this
clause (e) with respect to PRISA III REIT. 
 (f) Manager shall not offer or provide any amenities or
facilities at or in connection with the Hotels other than Customary Amenities (defined below); and 
 (g) Except
to the extent specifically permitted in the second sentence to this clause (g), no person that is a director, trustee, officer, manager, general partner or employee of Manager, any person with whom Manager contracts to operate or manage a Hotel, nor
any direct or indirect subsidiary of any of the foregoing (“Manager-Affiliated Person”) is or shall be a director, trustee, officer, manager, general partner or employee of PRISA III REIT, the Partnership, TRS, Lessee, Landlord or
any direct or indirect subsidiary of any of the foregoing (“REIT-Affiliated Person”) and no Manager Affiliated Person shall act in any fiduciary capacity with respect to any of PRISA III REIT, the Partnership, TRS, Lessee, Landlord
or any direct or indirect subsidiary of any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is acknowledged and agreed that Monty Bennett may serve on the executive committee of the Partnership. 

A “qualified lodging facility” is defined in Section 856(d)(9)(D) of the Code and means a
“Lodging Facility” (defined below), unless wagering activities are conducted at or in connection with such facility by any person who is engaged in the business of accepting wagers and who is fully authorized to engage in such
business at or in connection with such facility. A “Lodging Facility” is a hotel, motel or other establishment more than one-half of the dwelling units in which are used on a transient basis, and includes customary amenities and
facilities operated as party of, or associated with, the lodging facility so long as such amenities and facilities are customary for other properties of a comparable size and class owned by other owners unrelated to the Lessee, Landlord, the
Partnership, AHT or PRISA III REIT or any of their direct or indirect subsidiaries (any such amenities, “Customary Amenities”). 
 Any assignee of the Manager under the Management Agreement shall make and be bound by the representations and covenants of the Manager under this Section 28.08 as of the date of the assignment.

 28.09 Environmental Matters. 

A. For purposes of this Section 28.09, “hazardous materials” means any substance or material
containing one or more of any of the following: “hazardous material,” “hazardous waste,” “hazardous substance,” “regulated substance,” “petroleum,” “pollutant,” “contaminant,” or
“asbestos,” as such terms are defined in any applicable environmental law, in such concentration(s) or amount(s) as may impose clean-up, removal, monitoring or other responsibility under any applicable environmental law, or which may
present a significant risk of harm to guests, invitees or employees of the Hotels. 

  
 49 

 B. Regardless of whether or not a given hazardous material is permitted on
the Premises under applicable environmental law, Manager shall only bring on the Premises such hazardous materials as are needed in the normal course of business of the Hotels. 

C. In the event of the discovery of hazardous materials (as such term may be defined in any applicable environmental law)
on the Premises or in the Hotels during the Term of this Agreement, Lessee shall promptly remove, if required by applicable environmental law, such hazardous materials, together with all contaminated soil and containers, and shall otherwise remedy
the problem in accordance with all environmental laws (except to the extent knowingly or recklessly caused by Manager during the Term of this Agreement, whereupon the responsibility to promptly remove and/or remedy the environmental problem shall be
that of Manager and at Manager’s sole cost and expense). All costs and expenses of the compliance with all environmental laws shall be paid by Lessee from its own funds (except to the extent knowingly or recklessly caused by Manager during the
Term of this Agreement as set forth herein above). 
 28.10 Equity and Debt Offerings. Neither Lessee nor Manager
(as an “issuing party”) shall make reference to the other party (the “non-issuing party”) or any of its Affiliates in any prospectus, private placement memorandum, offering circular or offering documentation related
thereto (collectively, referred to as the “Prospectus”), issued by the issuing party, unless the non-issuing party has received a copy of all such references. In no event will the non-issuing party be deemed a sponsor of the
offering described in any such Prospectus, nor will it have any responsibility for the Prospectus, and the Prospectus will so state. The issuing party shall be entitled to include in the Prospectus an accurate summary of this Agreement but shall not
include any proprietary mark of the non-issuing party without prior written consent of the non-issuing party. The issuing party shall indemnify, defend and hold the non-issuing party and its Affiliates (and their respective directors, officers,
shareholders, employees and agents) harmless from and against all loss, costs, liability and damage (including attorneys’ fees and expenses, and the cost of litigation), arising out of any Prospectus or the offering described therein, except
for any such losses, costs, liability and damage arising from material misstatements or omissions in a Prospectus based on information provided in writing by the non-issuing party expressly for inclusion in the Prospectus. 

28.11 Estoppel Certificates. Lessee and Manager will, at any time and from time to time within ten (10) days of the
request of the other party or a Holder, or a Franchisor (if so permitted under the applicable Franchise Agreement), or a Landlord (if so permitted under the applicable Lease), execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other party and such Holder,
Franchisor or Landlord, as applicable, a certificate certifying to the extent the following are true or stating the respects in which the following are untrue: 
 A. That the Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating such modifications); 

  
 50 

 B. The dates, if any, to which the distributions of excess Working Capital
have been paid; 
 C. Whether there are any existing Event(s) of Default or events which, with the passage of
time, would become an Event of Default, by the other party to the knowledge of the party making such certification, and specifying the nature of such Event(s) of Default or defaults or events which, with the passage of time, would become an Event of
Default, if any; and 
 D. Such other matters as may be reasonably requested. 

Any such certificates may be relied upon by any party to whom the certificate is directed. 

28.12 Confidentiality. The Manager shall keep confidential all non-public information obtained in connection with the
services rendered under this Agreement and shall not disclose any such information or use any such information except in furtherance of its duties under this Agreement and as may be required by any of its lenders or owners (provided said lenders
and/or owners, as applicable agree prior to disclosure to keep such information confidential as set forth in this subparagraph 28.12), or as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements or court order, or as may be required under any Franchise
Agreement, Hotel Mortgage, Lease or Ground Lease. 
 28.13 Modification. Any amendment, supplement or modification
of this Agreement must be in writing signed by both parties hereto. 
 28.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in multiple counterparts, each of which is an original and all of which collectively constitute one instrument. 

28.15 Lessee Audit Rights. Lessee shall, at any time throughout the term of this Agreement, have the right to examine and
inspect the books and records of the Hotels (and make any copies thereof), the operations of the Hotels and all other services and materials provided to the Hotels or allocated to one or more of the Hotels by Manager or any Affiliate of Manager or
any other costs and expenses charged to Lessee or Hotels by Manager upon reasonable prior notice by Lessee to Manager; provided, however, Lessee shall also be entitled to conduct spot audits or examinations of the same without prior notice from time
to time 
 Any examination or inspection pursuant to this Section 28.15 shall be conducted following reasonable notice to
Manager in such a fashion as to interfere as little as reasonably practicable with Manager’s normal business operations and shall be performed at Lessee’s expense. Manager shall correct any misstatements as shown by the audit. Lessee shall
not be responsible for failure to discover any defalcations during any audit or inspection of the financial records. Manager shall cooperate with Lessee and Lessee’s auditor in connection with any such audit and shall promptly make available to
Lessee and Lessee’s auditor any and all information that they may reasonably request in connection with such audit

Loan the Prepayment Premium applicable thereto. All Prepayment Premium payments hereunder shall be deemed earned by Lender upon the funding of the Loan. 
 Section 2.6. Prepayment. 
 (a) Provided no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Borrower may voluntarily prepay the Indebtedness in full and not in part (i) only on or prior to the day that is two (2) years after the Start-Up Day, and such prepayment shall be subject to payment of
Prepayment Premium, and (ii) only on or after the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the Maturity Date and there shall be no Prepayment Premium or penalty assessed against 

  
 31 

 
Borrower by reason of such prepayment; provided, however, that Borrower shall give to Lender at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any such prepayment. Any
prepayment of the Loan shall be made on a Payment Date, and if any such prepayment is not made on a Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay to Lender interest calculated at the Interest Rate that would have accrued on such prepaid Principal
Indebtedness through the end of the Interest Accrual Period in which such prepayment occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Permitted Transfers, defeasance in accordance with Section 2.10 and Property Substitutions in accordance with
Section 2.14 are not prepayments. 
 (b) Subject to Section 8.40 and to any contrary requirements of the
Ground Lease, at any time during the term of the Loan, if any Borrower is required by Lender under the provisions of any Mortgage to prepay the Loan or any portion thereof in the event of damage to or destruction of, or a Taking of any Individual
Property, such Borrower shall pay any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation proceeds in the following manner and order of priority (i) first, to prepay the Loan to the full extent of the Insurance Proceeds or the Condemnation Proceeds, as
applicable, to the extent of the Allocated Loan Amount for the applicable Individual Property, and (ii) to the Borrowers. 

(c) All prepayments of the Indebtedness made pursuant to this Section shall be applied by Lender in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.7 hereof. 
 (d) No Borrower shall be permitted at any time to prepay all or any part of the Loan except
as expressly provided in this Section. 
 Section 2.7. Application of Payments. 

At all times, all proceeds of repayment, including without limitation any payment or recovery on the Collateral and any prepayments on the
Loan, shall be applied to the Note and to such amounts payable by Borrowers under the Loan Documents and in such order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in Lender’s discretion. 

Section 2.8. Payment of Debt Service, Method and Place of Payment. 

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments and prepayments under this Agreement and the Notes shall be made to
Lender not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, and shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America in federal or other immediately available funds to an account specified to Borrower by Lender in writing,
and any funds received by Lender after such time, for all purposes hereof, shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day. 
 (b) All payments made by any Borrower hereunder or by any Borrower under the other Loan Documents, shall be made irrespective of, and without any deduction for, any set-offs or counterclaims. 

  
 32 

 Section 2.9. Taxes. 

All payments made by any Borrower under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without
deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, now or hereafter imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings and liabilities, collectively, “Applicable Taxes”). If any Borrower shall
be required by law to deduct any Applicable Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, the following shall apply: (i) such Borrower shall make all such required deductions, (ii) the sum payable to Lender shall be
increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.9(a)), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum Lender would have received had
no such deductions been made and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Payments made pursuant to this Section 2.9(a) shall be
made within ten (10) Business Days after Lender makes written demand therefor. 
 Section 2.10. Defeasance.

 Borrower shall not be permitted at any time to defease all or any portion of the Loan except as expressly provided in this
Section 2.10. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, after the date which is two (2) years after the Start-Up Day of the last Note securitized, Borrower may voluntarily defease all of the Loan (a
“Full Defeasance”) or a portion of the Loan (a “Partial Defeasance”), in either case, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: 

(a) Any Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance of the Loan by Borrower shall be made on a Payment Date, 

(b) Borrower shall provide not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Lender specifying (i) a Payment Date (the
“Defeasance Release Date”) on which the Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance is to occur, and (ii) in the event of a Partial Defeasance, the Individual Property proposed to be defeased; provided, that, Borrower shall be
required to defease the Loan on the Defeasance Release Date specified in such notice unless such notice is revoked in writing by Borrower prior to the such Defeasance Release Date in which event Borrower shall immediately reimburse Lender for any
reasonable costs incurred by Lender in connection with Borrower’s giving of such notice and revocation, 
 (c) Borrower
shall have paid to Lender all principal and interest accrued and unpaid on the Principal Indebtedness to and including the Defeasance Release Date, 
 (d) Borrower shall pay to Lender all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with the Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance, as applicable (including, without limitation, fees of Rating
Agencies and accountants, and fees incurred in connection with the delivery of opinion letters related to such Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance, as applicable), reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs of any loan servicer (if any) in connection
with the Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance, as applicable, and all other sums then due and payable under the Loan Documents, 

  
 33 

 (e) Borrower shall either deposit with Lender an amount equal to the Defeasance Deposit,
or, at Lender’s request, deliver to Lender the Defeasance Collateral. In connection with the foregoing, Borrower appoints Lender as Borrower’s agent for the purpose of applying the Defeasance Deposit to purchase the Defeasance Collateral,

 (f) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender all documents reasonably required by Lender (i) in the case of a Full
Defeasance, to amend and restate the Note in a principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan (the “Full Defeased Note”), and (ii) in the case of a Partial Defeasance, to issue two substitute notes
as follows: (A) one promissory note in a principal amount equal to 125% of the Allocated Loan Amount of the Individual Property to be defeased (the “Defeased Note”); and (B) the other promissory note having a principal
balance equal to the Allocated Loan Amounts of all Individual Properties (including the Individual Property being defeased) less the amount of the Defeased Note (the “Undefeased Note”). The Defeased Note and the Undefeased Note
shall have terms identical to the terms of the Note, except for the principal balance and a pro rata allocation of the Required Debt Service Payment. Neither a Full Defeased Note nor a Defeased Note may be the subject of any further defeasance;
after a Partial Defeasance, all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to “Note” shall be deemed to mean the Undefeased Note, unless expressly provided otherwise, 

(g) Borrower shall deliver to Lender the following items: 

(i) a security agreement, in form and substance satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard, creating a first priority
perfected Lien on the Defeasance Deposit and the Defeasance Collateral (the “Security Agreement”), 
 (ii) for execution by Lender, a release of each applicable Individual Property being defeased from the lien of the applicable Mortgage in a form appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such Individual
Property is located, 
 (iii) an Officer’s Certificate of Borrower certifying that the requirements set
forth in this Section 2.10 have been satisfied including, without limitation, that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 
 (iv) an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard stating, among other things, (A) that, the Defeasance Collateral has been duly and validly assigned and
delivered to Lender and Lender has a first priority perfected security interest in and Lien on the Defeasance Deposit and a first priority perfected security interest in and Lien on the Defeasance Collateral and the Proceeds thereof and
(B) that the subject Partial Defeasance will not adversely affect the status of any REMIC formed in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction, and 
 (v) such other certificates, documents or instruments as Lender may reasonably request including, without limitation, (A) written confirmation from the relevant Rating Agencies that such Partial
Defeasance will not cause any Rating Agency to withdraw, qualify or downgrade the then-applicable rating on any security issued in connection with any Secondary Market Transaction and (B) a certificate from an Independent certified public
accountant certifying that the Defeasance Collateral complies with all of the requirements of this Section 2.10, 

  
 34 

 (h) In the case of a Partial Defeasance, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to
the Undefeased Note shall be equal to or greater than (i) 1.51:1.00, and (ii) the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to the Loan for the trailing twelve (12) months immediately prior to such Partial Defeasance, and 

(i) In the case of a Partial Defeasance, the RevPAR with respect to the Individual Properties securing the Undefeased Note shall be equal
to or greater than (i) RevPAR with respect to all of the Individual Properties as of the Closing Date, and (ii) RevPAR with respect to all of the Individual Properties for the trailing twelve (12) months immediately prior to such
Partial Defeasance, each as determined in accordance with the Prudent Lender Standard. 
 Upon compliance with the requirements
of this Section 2.10, the Individual Property which is the subject of such Full Defeasance or Partial Defeasance shall be released from the lien of the applicable Mortgage, and shall thereafter no longer be subject to restrictions on
transfer set forth herein. 
 In connection with a defeasance of the Loan, Borrower shall assign to an entity, which entity
which shall be a Special-Purpose Entity (the “Successor Obligor”), all of Borrower’s obligations under the Full Defeased Note or Defeased Note, as the case may be, the other Loan Documents and the Security Agreement, together
with the pledged Defeasance Collateral. The Successor Obligor shall assume, in a writing or writings satisfying the Prudent Lender Standard, all of Borrower’s obligations under the Full Defeased Note or the Defeased Note, as the case may be,
the other Loan Documents and the Security Agreement and, upon such assignment, Borrower shall, except as set forth herein, be relieved of its obligations hereunder. If a Successor Borrower assumes Borrower’s obligations, Lender may require as a
condition to such defeasance, such additional legal opinions from Borrower’s or Successor Obligor’s counsel as Lender reasonably deems necessary to confirm the valid creation and authority of the Successor Borrower (including a
non-consolidation opinion), the assignment and assumption of the Loan, the Security Agreement and the Defeasance Collateral between Borrower and Successor Borrower, and the enforceability of the assignment documents and of the Loan Documents as the
obligation of Successor Borrower. Borrower shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including Lender’s reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred in connection with Successor Borrower’s assumption of
the Loan, the Security Agreement and the Defeasance Collateral. 
 Nothing in this Section 2.10 shall release
Borrower from any liability or obligation relating to any environmental matters arising under Section 5.1(F). 

Section 2.11. Central Cash Management. 
 (a) Collection Account; Manager Account. 

  
 35 

 (i) With respect to each Non-Marriott Property, each applicable Borrower or
Operating Lessee shall open and maintain at a Collection Account Bank a trust account (a “Collection Account”) with respect to such Individual Property. Each of the Collection Accounts shall be assigned an identification number by
the related Collection Account Bank and shall be opened and maintained in the name “Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending, Inc. as Mortgagee/Pledgee (as applicable) of the applicable Borrower or Operating Lessee.” None of any Borrower, Operating
Lessee or any Manager shall have any right of withdrawal from any Collection Account. Borrowers shall, on a twice-weekly basis, cause all Rents and all other items of Gross Revenue to be deposited or transferred directly into the related Collection
Account. Without in any way limiting Borrowers’ obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence, Borrowers, Operating Lessee and each Manager shall deposit or cause the transfer directly into the relevant Collection Account all Rents, other
items of Gross Revenue and all Credit Card Receivables received by any Borrower, Operating Lessee and each Manager within one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof. 

(ii) With respect to each Marriott Property, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall cause all Rents and all other items of
Gross Revenue to be deposited or transferred directly into the related Manager Account immediately upon payment of the same. Without in any way limiting Borrowers’ obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence, Borrowers, Operating Lessee and
each Manager shall deposit or cause the transfer of directly into the relevant Manager Account all Rents, other items of Gross Revenue and all Credit Card Receivables received by any Borrower, Operating Lessee and each Manager in violation or
contradiction of the preceding sentence within one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof. 
 (iii) Any
breach of this Section by any Borrower shall be an Event of Default; provided, however, that, with respect to any Marriott Property, any breach of this Section that arises by reason of any act or omission within the exclusive control
or responsibility of a Manager operating under a Management Agreement shall not be an Event of Default hereunder so long as Borrower is taking prompt, diligent and commercially reasonable action to require such Manager to remedy such Event of
Default. 
 (b) Non-Marriott Property Operating Account; Cash Collateral Account. 

(i) Pursuant to each Collection Account Agreement (with respect to each Non-Marriott Property), Borrowers will authorize
and direct each Collection Account Bank to promptly (and in any event within one Business Day of receipt thereof) transfer all funds deposited in the Collection Account for such Borrower’s Individual Property to the Non-Marriott Property
Operating Account (other than a minimum balance of cash of $5,000 at all times for payment of any of the Collection Account Bank’s charges, fees and expenses, as provided in the Collection Account Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of each Cash
Collateral Account Agreement, at such time as the aggregate amount of funds deposited into the Non-Marriott Property Operating Account during any Current Interest Accrual Period shall be equal to at least the Non-Marriott Property Operating Expenses
Monthly Installment for such Current Interest Accrual Period, the Cash Collateral Account Bank shall promptly transfer to the Cash Collateral Account all funds deposited into the Non-Marriott Property Operating

  
 36 

 
Account during such Interest Accrual Period in excess of such Non-Marriott Property Operating Expenses Monthly Installment. Provided that no Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap
Period is continuing, the Non-Marriott Property Operating Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Borrower, and Borrower shall have full access thereto and right of withdrawal therefrom for payment of operating expenses relating to
the Non-Marriott Properties. During the continuance of any Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap Period, no Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have any right of withdrawal in respect to the Non-Marriott Property Operating Account.

 (ii) Pursuant to each Manager’s Subordination (with respect to each Marriott Property), Borrowers will
authorize and direct each Manager to promptly transfer all funds due and payable to Borrower (in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement and the Manager’s Subordination) deposited in the Manager Account for such Borrower’s
Individual Property to a cash collateral account that is an Eligible Account established by Lender in Lender’s name (the “Cash Collateral Account”). Lender may elect to change the financial institution at which the Cash
Collateral Account shall be maintained. Lender shall give Borrowers not less than thirty (30) days prior notice of each change. The Cash Collateral Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Lender. No Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall have any right of withdrawal in respect to the Cash Collateral Account. 
 (c) Establishment of Sub-Accounts. The
Cash Collateral Account shall contain a Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, a Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, a Capital Reserve Sub-Account, a Cash Management Fee Sub-Account, a Ground Rents Sub-Account, a Hotel Operations Sub-Account, a Deferred
Maintenance Sub-Account, an Upfront Remediation Sub-Account and a Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account (if applicable), each of which accounts (individually, a “Sub-Account” and collectively, the
“Sub-Accounts”) shall be an Eligible Account to which certain funds shall be allocated and from which disbursements shall be made pursuant to the terms of this Loan Agreement. 

(d) Monthly Funding of Sub-Accounts. During each Interest Accrual Period and, except as provided below, during the term of the
Loan commencing with the Interest Accrual Period in which the Closing Date occurs (each, the “Current Interest Accrual Period”), Lender shall allocate all funds then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account among the Sub-Accounts
as follows and in the following priority: 
 (i) first, to the Ground Rents Sub-Account, until an amount
equal to the Ground Rents Monthly Installment for the Current Interest Accrual Period has been allocated to the Ground Rents Sub-Account; 
 (ii) second, to the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Basic Carrying Costs Monthly Installment for the Current Interest Accrual Period has been allocated to the Basic
Carrying Costs Sub-Account, provided, that with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement applicable
to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure 

  
 37

reasonably determined by Lender based on Marriott’s periodic reporting obligations under the Management Agreement and/or Manager’s Subordination or otherwise, funds shall be allocated to the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account pursuant to
this Section 2.11(d)(ii) only in an amount equal to the portion of the Basic Carrying Costs Monthly Installment relating to Impositions not otherwise reserved for and paid by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement; 

(iii) third, to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Required Debt Service Payment
for the Payment Date immediately after the Current Interest Accrual Period has been allocated to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account;

Sub-Account (and, upon calculation of the Capital Reserve True-Up Amount, if the Capital Reserve True-Up Amount is a positive number, until an amount equal to the Capital Reserve True-Up Amount has been allocated to the Capital Reserve Sub-Account),
provided, that with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property
beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein, and (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, funds shall be allocated to the

disbursed in accordance with Section 2.11(f) below), provided, that with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing
under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein, and (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or
the Manager’s Subordination, no funds shall be allocated 

  
 38 

 
to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(d)(vi), and, provided further, that with respect to the Non-Marriott Properties, so long as no Non-Marriott
Property Operating Account Cash Trap Period has occurred and is continuing, no funds shall be allocated to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(d)(vi); 

(vii) seventh, to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account, until an amount equal to any Extra Funds approved pursuant to
Section 2.11(f) has been allocated to such Sub-Account, provided, that with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing

Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap Period has occurred and is continuing, no funds shall be allocated to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(d)(vii); 

(viii) eighth, in the event that a permitted Mezzanine Financing under Section 2.15 has occurred, for
the benefit of the Mezzanine Borrower, to the Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the scheduled monthly interest payment portion of Mezzanine Debt Service for the applicable monthly payment date set forth in the
Mezzanine Loan Agreement for the then current interest accrual period set forth in the Mezzanine Loan Agreement has been allocated to the Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account; 

(ix) ninth, funds sufficient to pay amounts equal to any Costs of Uncollectible Drafts then due to the Morgan
Collection Account Bank shall be deposited with the Morgan Collection Account Bank; 
 (x) tenth,
provided that (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) Lender has received all financial information described in Section 5.1(Q) for the most recent periods for which the same are due, and (c) no Key
West Cash Trap Period is continuing, Lender agrees that in each Current Interest Accrual Period any amounts deposited into or remaining in the Cash Collateral Account after the minimum amounts set forth in clauses (i) through
(ix), inclusive, above, have been satisfied with respect to the Current Interest Accrual Period and any periods prior thereto shall be disbursed by Lender on a weekly basis, at Borrowers’ expense, to (A) at any time while the
Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, the Mezzanine Deposit Account (to the extent, if any, required under the Mezzanine Loan Agreement), and (B) at any time after the Mezzanine Loan has been repaid in full or at any time during which there is no
Mezzanine Loan, such account that Borrowers may request in writing. Lender and its agents shall not be responsible for monitoring Borrowers’ use of any funds disbursed from the Cash Collateral Account or any of the Sub-Accounts. If an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, or if a Key West Cash Trap Period is continuing, any amounts deposited into or remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be for the account of Lender and may be withdrawn by Lender to be applied in any
manner at any time to amounts owing under the Loan Documents as Lender may elect in Lender’s discretion or maintained in the Cash Collateral Account as security for the Indebtedness. 

  
 39 

 If an Event of Default has occurred and exists or if on any Payment Date the balance in any
Sub-Account is insufficient to make the required payment due from such Sub-Account, Lender may, in its sole discretion, in addition to any other rights and remedies available hereunder, withdraw funds from any other Sub-Account to (a) pay such
deficiency, or (b) apply to payment of the Indebtedness. If a Non-Marriott Property Operating Account Cash Trap Period has occurred and exists, Lender may, in its sole discretion, in addition to any other rights and remedies available
hereunder, withdraw funds from the Non-Marriott Property Operating Account to apply to payment of the Indebtedness. If Lender elects to apply funds of any such Sub-Account or Non-Marriott Property Operating Account to pay any Required Debt Service
Payment, Borrowers shall, upon demand, repay to Lender the amount of such withdrawn funds to replenish such Sub-Account or Non-Marriott Property Operating Account , and if Borrowers fail to repay such amounts within five (5) days after notice
of such withdrawal, an Event of Default shall exist hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the Closing Date Borrowers shall deposit the Initial Deferred Maintenance Amount into the Deferred Maintenance Sub-Account, the Initial Basic Carrying
Cost Amount into the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account, the Initial Upfront Remediation Amount into the Upfront Remediation Sub-Account and the Initial Ground Rents Amount into the Ground Rent Reserve Sub-Account. 

(e) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs, Debt Service, Capital Improvement Costs, Cash Collateral Account Bank Fees and Ground
Rents]. 
 (i) Payment of Basic Carrying Costs. 

(x) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of any Basic Carrying Cost payment, and not more frequently than once each
Interest Accrual Period, Borrowers shall notify Lender in writing and request that Lender make such Basic Carrying Cost payment on behalf of the applicable Borrowers on or prior to the due date thereof. Together with each such request, Borrowers
shall furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender to establish that such Basic Carrying Cost payment is then due. Lender shall be entitled to conclusively rely on all bills or other
documentation received from any Borrower, in each case without independent investigation or verification. Lender shall make such payments out of the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account before the same shall be delinquent to the extent that there are
funds available in the Basic Carrying Cost Sub-Account and Lender has received appropriate documentation to establish the amount(s) due and the due date(s) as and when provided above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to
each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure
periods set forth therein, (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, and (D) with respect to Impositions, sufficient funds have been deducted
from Gross Revenues (as defined under the applicable Management Agreement) to provide for payment in full of the next due installments of Impositions in accordance with the terms hereof, as reasonably determined by Lender based

  
 40 

 
on Marriott’s periodic reporting obligations under the Management Agreement and/or Manager’s Subordination or otherwise, this Section 2.11(e)(i)(x) shall only apply to the
payment of Impositions not otherwise reserved for and paid by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination. 
 (y) Except to the extent that Lender is obligated to pay Basic Carrying Costs from the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account pursuant to the terms of this Section, Borrowers shall pay or shall cause payment of
all Basic Carrying Costs with respect to itself and the Individual Properties in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgages. Borrowers’ obligation to pay or to cause payment (or to enable Lender to pay) Basic Carrying Costs pursuant to
this Agreement shall include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose upon Lender or any Deed of Trust Trustee an obligation to pay any property taxes or other Impositions or which
otherwise adversely affect Lender’s or the Deed of Trust Trustee’s interests. (In the event such a change in law prohibits any Borrower from assuming liability for payment of any such Imposition, the outstanding Indebtedness shall, at the
option of Lender, become due and payable on the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after such change in law; and failure to pay such amounts on the date due shall be an Event of Default.) If an Event of Default has occurred, the
proceeds on deposit in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account may be applied by Lender in any manner as Lender in its discretion may determine. 
 (ii) Payment of Debt Service. At or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Payment Date during the term of the Loan, Lender shall transfer to Lender’s own account from the Debt Service
Payment Sub-Account an amount equal to the Required Debt Service Payment for the applicable Payment Date. Borrowers shall be deemed to have timely made the Required Debt Service Payment pursuant to Section 2.8 regardless of the time Lender
makes such transfer as long as sufficient funds are on deposit in the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account at 12:00 noon, New York City time on the applicable Payment Date. At all times after such Payment Date Lender may, at its option, transfer amounts
in the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account to Lender’s own account, provided that Borrowers shall receive credit against the Required Debt Service Payment in the amounts so transferred to Lender such that in any given Current Interest Accrual
Period Borrowers shall not be required to deposit into the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account any amounts in excess of the aggregate amount of the Required Debt Service Payment for such Current Interest Accrual Period. 

(iii) Payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Not more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, and
provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers may notify Lender in writing and request that Lender release to a Borrower or its designee funds from the Capital Reserve Sub-Account, to the extent funds are
available therein, for payment of Capital Improvement Costs. Together with each such request, Borrowers shall furnish Lender or cause to be furnished to Lender copies of bills and other documentation as may be reasonably required by Lender to
establish that such Capital Improvement Costs are reasonable (provided such Capital Improvement Costs shall be deemed reasonable if such Capital Improvement Costs are reflected in the Approved Budget), that the work relating

  
 41 

 
thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then due or have been paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of
such request, provided such request shall be deemed approved if no response is received from Lender within twenty (20) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved,
Lender shall release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s approval. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott Property, so
long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is continuing under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein,
and (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, this Section 2.11(e)(iii) shall only apply to the payment of Capital Improvement Costs
not otherwise paid by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination. 

(iv) Payment of Deferred Maintenance Costs. Not more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, and
provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may notify Lender in writing and request that Lender release to Borrower funds from the Deferred Maintenance Sub-Account, to the extent funds are available therein, for
payment of Deferred Maintenance Costs. Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation reasonably required by Lender to establish that such Deferred Maintenance Costs are reasonable, that
the work relating thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then due or have been paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request, provided such request
shall be deemed approved if no response is received from Lender within twenty (20) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved, Lender shall release the funds to each
applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s approval. 
 (v) Payment of Cash Collateral Account Bank Fees. Not more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall transfer to the Cash Collateral Account Bank an amount equal to the amount
of the monthly fee payable to the Cash Collateral Account Bank under the Cash Collateral Account Agreement. 

(vi) Payment of Ground Rents. On or before each due date under each Ground Lease, from the amounts allocated to
the Ground Rents Sub-Account, Lender shall pay to the ground lessor under each Ground Lease the Ground Rents pursuant to written instructions received from Borrower. Borrower shall provide Lender and the Cash Collateral Account Bank with written
notice of any changes in any Ground Rents sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of such change. Borrower shall at all times ensure that (i) there are sufficient funds in the Ground Rents Sub-Account to pay all Ground Rents on time
and (ii) that Lender and Cash Collateral Account Bank have received sufficient instructions and information (including, without limitation, the address to which payments are to be sent, the amount of payments and the manner in which

  
 42 

 
payments are to be sent) to ensure timely payment of all Ground Rents in strict compliance with the terms of each Ground Lease. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the proceeds
on deposit in the Ground Rents Sub-Account may be applied to Lender in any manner as Lender in its sole discretion may determine. 
 (vii) Payment of Upfront Remediation Costs. Not more frequently than once each Interest Accrual Period, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may notify
Lender in writing and request that Lender release to Borrower funds from the Upfront Remediation Sub-Account, to the extent funds are available therein, for payment of Upfront Remediation Costs. Together with each such request, Borrower shall
furnish Lender with copies of bills and other documentation reasonably required by Lender to establish that such Upfront Remediation Costs are reasonable, that the work relating thereto has been completed and that such amounts are then due or have
been paid. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request, provided such request shall be deemed approved if no response is received from Lender within twenty
(20) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved, Lender shall release the funds to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within ten
(10) Business Days after Lender’s approval. 
 (f) Payment of Operating Expenses. 

(i) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and provided that all amounts required to be
deposited into the Sub-Accounts set forth in Sections 2.11(d)(i) through (vi) for the Current Interest Accrual Period have been deposited therein, Lender shall transfer within two Business Days thereafter at Borrowers’ sole
cost and expense, to an account designated by the Borrowers, all amounts contained in the Hotel Operating Sub-Accounts up to an amount equal to the amount set forth in the Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period provided, however,
that the aggregate withdrawals from the Hotel Operating Sub-Account pursuant to this Section 2.11(f)(i) for any Interest Accrual Period shall not exceed the amount set forth in the Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period (except
to the extent set forth in subsection (ii), below). 
 (ii) Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, if in a given Interest Accrual Period, Borrowers require amounts in excess of the amounts set forth in the Approved Budget for such Interest Accrual Period for Operating Expenses (“Extra Funds”), Borrowers may deliver
a written request to Lender to allocate an amount equal to Extra Funds to the Hotel Operations Sub-Account as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(vii) and for a disbursement of Extra Funds stating (1) the amount of such Extra Funds and
(2) the purpose for which such amount is intended with attachments of copies of bills and other documentation as may be required by Lender to establish that such Operating Expenses are reasonable and that such amounts are then due or expected
to become due in that month. Lender shall approve or disapprove such request, within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, provided such request shall be deemed approved if no response is

  
 43 

 
received from Lender within ten (10) Business Days after Lender’s receipt of such request and related documentation, and, if approved or deemed approved, Lender shall release the funds
to each applicable Borrower or such Borrower’s designee within five (5) Business Days after Lender’s approval. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (A) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (B) no default has occurred and is
continuing under the Management Agreement applicable to such Marriott Property beyond any applicable notice and cure periods set forth therein, and (C) Marriott is making all required payments as and when due pursuant to the Management
Agreement and/or the Manager’s Subordination, this Section 2.11(f) shall not apply. 
 (g) Payment of
Mezzanine Debt Service. In the event that a permitted Mezzanine Financing under Section 2.15 has occurred, at or before 12:00 noon, New York City time, on each Payment Date during the term of the Loan, Lender shall transfer to
Mezzanine Lender’s account from the Mezzanine Debt Service Payment Sub-Account an amount equal to the Mezzanine Debt Service for the applicable payment date. 
 (h) Permitted Investments. Upon the written request of Borrowers, which request may be made once per Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to invest and
reinvest any balance in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time in Permitted Investments as instructed by Borrowers; provided, however, that: (i) if Borrowers fail to so instruct Lender, or if a Default or an Event of
Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Lender shall direct the Cash Collateral Account Bank to invest and reinvest such balance in Permitted Investments as Lender shall determine in Lender’s discretion; (ii) the maturities of the
Permitted Investments on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account shall, to the extent such dates are ascertainable, be selected and coordinated to become due not later than the day before any disbursements from the Sub-Accounts must be made;
(iii) all such Permitted Investments shall be held in the name and be under the sole dominion and control of Lender; (iv) no Permitted Investment shall be made unless Lender shall retain a first priority perfected Lien in such Permitted
Investment and all filings and other actions necessary to ensure the validity, perfection, and priority of such Lien have been taken; (v) Lender shall only be required to follow the written investment instructions which were most recently
received by Lender and Borrowers shall be bound by such last received investment instructions; and (vi) any request from Borrowers containing investment instructions shall contain an Officer’s Certificate from Borrowers (which may be
conclusively relied upon by Lender and its agents) that any such investments constitute Permitted Investments. It is the intention of the parties hereto that all amounts deposited in the Cash Collateral Account shall at all times be invested in
Permitted Investments. All funds in the Cash Collateral Account that are invested in a Permitted Investment are deemed to be held in such Cash Collateral Account for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Lender shall have no
liability for any loss in investments of funds in the Cash Collateral Account that are invested in Permitted Investments (unless invested contrary to Borrowers’ request other than after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default) and no
such loss shall affect Borrowers’ obligation to fund, or liability for funding, the Cash Collateral Account and each Sub-Account, as the case may be. Borrowers and Lender agree that Borrowers shall include all such earnings and losses (other
than those for 

  
 44 

 
Lender’s account in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) on the Cash Collateral Account as income of the applicable Borrowers for federal and applicable state tax purposes.
Borrowers shall be responsible for any and all fees, costs and expenses with respect to Permitted Investments. 
 (i)
Interest on Accounts. All interest paid or other earnings on the Permitted Investments made hereunder shall be income of the applicable Borrower and applied in the manner and priority set forth in Section 2.11(d) hereof.

 (j) Termination of Central Cash Management. The obligations of Borrowers under Section 2.11 and
Section 2.12 to maintain and fund or to cause the maintenance and funding of the Collection Accounts, the Manager Accounts and the Cash Collateral Account shall terminate in their entirety and be of no further force or effect upon the
satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) the release of all Mortgages by Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; and (iii) Borrowers’ receipt of Lender’s written acknowledgment that the conditions described in (i) and (ii) above have been satisfied to Lender’s satisfaction. 

Section 2.12. Security Agreement.

to Lender a first priority and continuing Lien on and security interest in and to its Account Collateral. 
 (b)
Covenants. Each Borrower covenants that (i) all Rents and all other items of Gross Revenue shall be deposited or transferred into the relevant Collection Account or Manager Account, as applicable, in accordance with
Section 2.11(a), and (ii) so long as any portion of the Indebtedness is outstanding, no Borrower shall open (nor permit any Manager or any Person to open) any other account for the collection of any Rents or any other items of Gross
Revenue, other than (A) a replacement Manager Account pursuant to the terms of the applicable Management Agreement, or a replacement Collection Account approved by Lender in Lender’s discretion, and (B) any account held by Borrower in
the locality where the applicable Individual Property is located for the purposes of the collection of any Rents or any other items of Gross Revenue prior to the time such Rents or items of Gross Revenue are deposited in the Collection Account or
Manager Account, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Instructions and Agreements. On or before
the Closing Date, each applicable Borrower and Operating Lessee will submit to the Collection Account Bank for each related Individual Property a Collection Account Agreement to be executed by the Collection Account Bank. On or before the Closing
Date, Borrowers, Operating Lessee and the Cash Collateral Account Bank will execute and deliver a Cash Collateral Account Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in Lender’s discretion (the “Cash Collateral Account
Agreement”) and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that prior to the payment in full of the Indebtedness, the Cash Collateral Account Agreement shall be irrevocable by any Borrower or
Operating Lessee without the prior written consent of Lender. 

  
 45 

 (d) Financing Statements; Further Assurances. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Lender
to file a financing statement or statements in connection with the Account Collateral in the form required to properly perfect Lender’s security interest in the Account Collateral to the extent that it may be perfected by such a filing. Each
Borrower agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of Borrowers, such Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, and take all further action, that Lender may reasonably request, in order to perfect and
protect the pledge, security interest and Lien granted or purported to be granted hereby, or to enable Lender to exercise and enforce Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder with respect to, the Account Collateral. 

(e) Transfers and Other Liens. Each Borrower agrees that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Account Collateral
other than pursuant to the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, or create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to all or any of the Account Collateral, except for the Liens granted to Lender under this Agreement. 

(f) Lender’s Reasonable Care. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, Lender shall not have any duty
as to any Account Collateral or any income thereon in Lender’s possession or control or in the possession or control of any agents for, or of Lender, or the preservation of rights against any Person or otherwise with respect thereto. Lender
shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Account Collateral in Lender’s possession if the Account Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Lender accords Lender’s own property, it
being understood that Lender shall not be liable or responsible for (i) any loss or damage to any of the Account Collateral, or for any diminution in value thereof from a loss of, or delay in Lender’s acknowledging receipt of, any wire
transfer from the Collection Account Bank or from any Manager Account or (ii) any loss, damage or diminution in value by reason of the act or omission of Lender, or Lender’s agents, employees or bailees, except for any loss, damage or
diminution in value resulting from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender, its agents or employees.

Lender Appointed Attorney-In-Fact. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as such Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, at any time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instruments and to exercise and enforce every right, power, remedy, option and privilege of such Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral, and do in the name, place
and stead of such Borrower, all such acts, things and deeds for and on behalf of and in the name of such Borrower with respect to the Account Collateral, which such Borrower could or might do or which Lender may deem necessary or desirable to more
fully vest in Lender the rights and remedies provided for herein with respect to the Account Collateral and to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement. The foregoing powers of attorney are irrevocable and coupled with an interest. 

  
 46 

 (h) Continuing Security Interest; Termination. This Section shall create a
continuing pledge of, Lien on and security interest in the Account Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of the Indebtedness. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness, each applicable Borrower shall be entitled
to the return, upon such Borrower’s written request and at Borrowers’ expense, of such of the Account Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and Lender shall execute such instruments and
documents as may be reasonably requested by such Borrower in writing to evidence such termination and the release of the pledge and Lien hereof, provided, however, that such Borrower shall pay on demand all of Lender’s expenses in
connection therewith. 
 Section 2.13. Secondary Market Transactions. 

(a) Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that Lender may in one or more transactions (i) sell or securitize the Loan or portions
thereof in one or more transactions through the issuance of securities, which securities may be rated by one or more of the Rating Agencies, (ii) sell or otherwise transfer the Loan or any portion thereof one or more times, (iii) sell
participation interests (including without limitation, senior and subordinate participation interests) in the Loan one or more times, (iv) re-securitize the securities issued in connection with any securitization, or (v) further divide the
Loan into more separate notes, loans or components or change the principal balances (but not increase the aggregate principal balance) or interest rates of the Notes (including, without limitation, senior and subordinate notes or components) (the
transactions referred to in clauses (i) through (v), each a “Secondary Market Transaction” and collectively “Secondary Market Transactions”). 

(b) With respect to any Secondary Market Transaction described in Section 2.13(a)(v) above, such notes or note components may
be assigned different interest rates, so long as, at such time the weighted average of the relevant interest rates equals the Interest Rate; provided, that after an Event of Default each Borrower recognizes that, in the case of prepayments,
the weighted average interest rate of the Loan may increase because Lender shall have the right to apply principal payments to one or more notes or components with lower rates of interest before applying principal payments to one or more notes or
components with higher rates of interest; and provided, further, that the principal balance of the Note shall not change. Lender shall have the same rights to sell or otherwise transfer, participate or securitize one or more of the
divided, amended, modified or otherwise changed notes or components, individually or collectively, as Lender has with respect to the Loan. 
 (c) Each Borrower agrees that it shall cooperate with Lender and use such Borrower’s commercially reasonably efforts to facilitate the consummation of each Secondary Market Transaction including,
without limitation, by: (i) amending or causing the amendment of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, instruments and agreements including amendments to such Borrower’s organizational
documents and preparing financial statements as requested by the Rating Agencies to conform the terms of the Loan to the terms of similar loans underlying completed or pending secondary market transactions having or seeking ratings similar to those
then being sought in connection with the relevant Secondary Market Transaction; (ii) promptly and reasonably providing such information (including, without limitation, financial information) as may be requested in connection with the
preparation of a private placement memorandum, prospectus or a registration statement required to privately place or publicly distribute the securities in a manner which does not conflict with federal or state securities laws; (iii) providing
in connection with each of (A) a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum or other offering 

  
 47

memorandum, prospectus, registration statement or other offering document, as applicable, including, without limitation, the sections entitled “Special Considerations,” “Description of the Mortgage Loan,” “The Underlying
Mortgaged Property,” “The Manager,” “Borrower” and “Certain Legal Aspects of the Mortgage Loan,” and such sections (and any other sections requested) insofar as they relate to a Borrower, its Affiliates, the Loan
or any Individual Property does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
provided, however, that such Borrower shall not be required to indemnify Lender for any losses relating to untrue statements or omissions which such Borrower identified to Lender in writing at the time of such Borrower’s examination of such
memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, and (y) indemnifying (i) Lender and each of its affiliates and their respective successors and assigns (including their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, attorneys, accountants,
professionals and agents and each other person, if any, controlling Lender or any of its affiliates within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Section 20 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (each, including Lender, an “Indemnified Party”) and the (ii) party that has filed the registration statement relating to the Secondary
Market Transaction (the “Registration Statement”), each of its directors and officers who have signed the Registration Statement and each Person that controls such Party within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collective, the “Underwriter Group”), for any losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses or liabilities (including, without limitation, all liabilities under all applicable federal and state
securities laws) (collectively, the “Liabilities”) to which any of them may become subject (a) insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
relating to any Borrower, its Affiliates, the Loan, any Individual Property, any Manager and the Operating Lessee contained in such sections or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated in such sections or necessary in order to make the statements in such sections, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (b) as a result of any untrue statement of material fact in any of the
financial statements of any Borrower incorporated into any placement memorandum, prospectus, registration statement or other document connected with the issuance of securities or the failure to include in such financial statements or in any
placement memorandum, prospectus, registration statement or other document connected with the issuance of securities any material fact relating to any Borrower, its Affiliates, any Individual Property, the Loan, any Manager and the Operating Lessee
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (z) agreeing to reimburse the Indemnified Party and the Underwriter Group for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party and the Underwriter Group in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities; (iv) causing to be rendered such customary opinion letters as shall be requested by the Rating Agencies for
other secondary market or transactions having or seeking ratings comparable to that then being sought for the relevant Secondary Market Transaction; (v) making such representations, warranties and covenants, as may be reasonably requested by

ratings from two or more rating agencies. 
 (e) Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lender may, at any time on or
after the Closing Date, assign its duties, rights or obligations hereunder or under any Loan Document in whole, or in part, to a servicer and/or a trustee in Lender’s discretion. Nothing herein shall in any way limit Lender’s right to sell
all or a portion of the Loan in a transaction which is not a Secondary Market Transaction. 
 (f) Liability for costs and
expenses relating to any transaction described in this Section 2.13 shall be governed by Section 12 of the Cooperation Agreement. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, Lender reserves the right to increase, decrease, or otherwise re-allocate the outstanding principal balance of
the Note, and each Borrower and Operating Lessee covenants and agrees to execute amendments to the Note, this Agreement, and the other Loan Documents and the Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s organizational documents reasonably requested by
Lender in connection with any such re-allocation, provided that such modification shall not (a) increase the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Note, (b) change the stated maturity date of the Loan as set forth herein, or
(c) modify or amend any other economic or other term of the Loan.

a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (E) Agreements. No Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party to any agreement or instrument
or subject to any restriction which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each applicable Borrower and Operating Lessee is not in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations,

 (G) Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact
made by Borrower or Operating Lessee in the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make statements contained herein or therein not misleading. There is no fact presently known
to any Borrower or Operating Lessee which has not been disclosed to Lender which materially adversely affects, nor as far as any Borrower or Operating Lessee can foresee, might materially adversely affect the business, operations or condition
(financial or otherwise) of any Borrower or Operating Lessee.

valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect and has not been modified (other than by written instrument provided to Lender or except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing) and there are no material defaults under any of them,
nor (a) to Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s knowledge has any event occurred that with the passage of time, the giving of notice or 

  
 61

ordinary course of business relating to the ownership and operation of an Individual Property which are not evidenced by a promissory note and when aggregated with the unsecured trade payables of all other Borrowers and Operating Lessee, do not

Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all material respects with, and has been administered in all material respects in compliance with, its terms and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other federal or state law, and no event or
condition has occurred as to which any Borrower or Operating Lessee would be under an obligation to furnish a report to Lender under Section 5.1(S).

(L) Solvency. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has entered into this Loan Agreement or any Loan Document with the actual intent to
hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor, and each Borrower and Operating Lessee has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and the
agreements set forth herein, the fair saleable value of each of Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, exceed such Borrower’s or Operating
Lessee’s, as applicable, total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, or disputed liabilities or Contingent Obligations. The fair saleable value of each Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s assets is and
will, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, be greater than such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s, as applicable, probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its Contingent Obligations or its debts
as such debts become absolute and matured. No Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s assets do and, immediately following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, will, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as
conducted or as proposed to be conducted. No Borrower or Operating Lessee intends to, or believes that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including, without limitation, Contingent Obligations and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such
debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of each Borrower).

marketable fee simple or leasehold title to the applicable Individual Properties which it owns, free and clear of all Liens, other than the Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such Individual Property. There are no outstanding options to purchase
or rights of first refusal affecting any Individual Property. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and are not likely to materially and adversely affect (i) the ability of any Borrower to pay in full all sums due under the Notes or any of its
other obligations in a timely manner or (ii) the use of any Individual Property for the use currently being made thereof, the operation of such Individual Property as currently being operated or the value of any Individual Property. 

(R) Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. Each Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loan for the purposes described in
Section 2.2. No part of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or acquiring any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any

disclosed in writing to Lender, there has been no material adverse change in the financial position of any Borrower, Operating Lessee or Individual Property, or in the results of operations of any Borrower or Operating Lessee. No Borrower or
Operating Lessee has incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, not reflected in such financial data which might materially adversely affect its business operations or any Individual Property. 

(T) Condemnation. No Taking has been commenced or, to any Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, is contemplated
with respect to all or any portion of any Individual Property or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any Individual Property.

sewer and storm drain facilities as are adequate for full utilization of such Individual Property for its current purpose. Except as otherwise disclosed by the Surveys, all public utilities necessary to the continued use and enjoyment of each
Individual Property as presently used and enjoyed are located in the public right-of-way abutting the premises, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve each Individual Property either (i) without passing over other property or,
(ii) if such utilities pass over other property, pursuant to valid easements. All roads necessary for the full utilization of each Individual Property for its current purpose have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all
Governmental Authorities or are the subject of access easements for the benefit of such Individual Property.

entity) relating to Hazardous Substances or the Remediation thereof, of possible liability of any Person pursuant to any Environmental Law, other environmental conditions in connection with any Individual Property, or any actual or potential
administrative or judicial proceedings in connection with any of the foregoing; and (f) such Borrower or Operating Lessee has truthfully and fully provided to Lender, in writing, any and all information relating to conditions in, on, under or
from each Individual Property that is known to such Borrower or Operating Lessee and that is contained in files and records of such Borrower or Operating Lessee, including but not limited to any reports relating to Hazardous Substances in, on, under
or from such Individual Property and/or to the environmental condition of each Individual Property. 
 (W) No Joint
Assessment; Separate Lots. No Borrower or Operating Lessee has or shall suffer, permit or initiate the joint assessment of any applicable Individual Property (i) with any other real property constituting a separate tax lot, and
(ii) with any portion of any Individual Property which may be deemed to constitute personal property, or any other procedure whereby the lien of any taxes which may be levied against such personal property shall be assessed or levied or charged
to any Individual Property as a single lien. Each Individual Property is comprised of one or more parcels, each of which constitutes a separate tax lot and none of which constitutes a portion of any other tax lot. 

(X) Assessments. Except as disclosed in the Title Insurance Policy and any title exception documents referenced therein, there are
no pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting any Individual Property, nor, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, are there
any contemplated improvements to any Individual Property that may result in such special or other assessments. 
 (Y)
Mortgage and Other Liens. The Mortgages create valid and enforceable first mortgage Liens on each Individual Property as security for the repayment of the Indebtedness, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances applicable to such Individual
Property. Each security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation which is contained in any Loan Document establishes and creates a valid and enforceable lien on and a security interest in, or claim to, the rights and property
described therein. All property covered by each such security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation is subject to a UCC financing statement filed and/or recorded, as appropriate, in all places necessary to perfect a valid first
priority lien with respect to the rights and property that are the subject of such security agreement, assignment, pledge, grant or other hypothecation to the extent governed by the UCC to the extent such a security interest in such property is
perfectible by the filing of a UCC financing statement. 

  
 65

Operating Lessee in connection with the Loan are the legal, valid and binding obligations of each such Borrower or Operating Lessee, enforceable against each such Borrower or Operating Lessee in accordance with their terms, subject only to
bankruptcy, insolvency and other limitations on creditors’ rights generally and to equitable principles. Such Loan Documents are, as of the Closing Date, not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Borrower
or Operating Lessee, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Notes, any Mortgage, or such other Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render any Mortgage unenforceable against any Borrower
or Operating Lessee, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense by any Borrower or Operating Lessee, including the defense of usury, and no Borrower or Operating Lessee has asserted any right of

Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any default under any Management Agreement, and Borrower or Operating Lessee is not contesting said default in good faith in accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement, such notice shall constitute full

shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and

Lessee shall cooperate with Lender with respect to any proceedings before any Governmental Authority which may in any way affect the rights of Lender hereunder or any rights obtained by Lender under any of the Loan Documents and, in connection
therewith, not prohibit Lender, at its election, from participating in any such proceedings.

 77

 (P) Management of Property. 
 (i) Each Individual Property
will be managed at all times by the applicable Manager pursuant to a Management Agreement unless terminated as herein provided. Subject to Section 5.1(I), each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall comply with the terms of and enforce its
rights under the Management Agreement in all material respects. The Management Agreement shall be terminated by Borrowers or Operating Lessee, at Lender’s request, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Borrowers, Operating Lessee
and the applicable Manager (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (ii) if the applicable Manager commits any act which would permit termination by any Borrower or Operating Lessee under the Management Agreement and/or any

pursuant hereto, or the Management Agreement is otherwise terminated by Manager pursuant to the terms contained therein, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall promptly seek to appoint a replacement manager acceptable to Lender in Lender’s
discretion, and Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to appoint an acceptable manager within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request of Borrowers to terminate the Management Agreement or other termination of the Management
Agreement shall constitute an immediate Event of Default. Borrowers or Operating Lessee may from time to time appoint a successor manager to manage an Individual Property, which successor manager shall be approved in writing by Lender in
Lender’s discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any successor manager selected hereunder by Lender, any Borrower or Operating Lessee to serve as Manager (a) shall be either (1) the Remington Manager provided, that the

  
 78 

 
Remington Manager shall manage the applicable Individual Property pursuant to the terms of the master management agreement by and among the Borrowers and the Remington Manager, or (2) a
reputable management company having at least seven (7) years’ experience in the management of commercial properties with similar uses as the Individual Properties and in the jurisdiction in which the Individual Properties are located and

Management Agreement at the end of the initial term or any renewal term of the Management Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, or the Management Agreement is otherwise terminated by Manager pursuant to the terms contained therein, then
Borrower and Operating Lessee, upon notice of Marriott’s election not to renew the Management Agreement or within thirty (30) days of any other termination of the Management Agreement, shall promptly seek to appoint (x) a replacement
manager acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies, each in their discretion, and (y) a replacement hotel franchise, acceptable to Lender and the Rating Agencies, each in their discretion, to occupy and operate at the applicable Individual
Property. Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to appoint an acceptable manager by the time the Management Agreement expires by its terms or within thirty (30) days of any other termination of the Management Agreement, shall
constitute an immediate Event of Default. Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to enter into hotel management and operating agreements and other documents in connection therewith (such as subordinations and comfort letters) acceptable
to Lender and the Rating Agencies, each in their discretion, with an acceptable hotel franchise to operate a hotel at the applicable Individual Property by the time the Management Agreement expires by its terms shall constitute an immediate Event of
Default. For the purposes of this paragraph, (1) Remington Manager shall be deemed an acceptable replacement manager, and (2) Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., Hilton Hotels Corporation, Marriott International, Inc. or
any brand of any of them shall be deemed an acceptable replacement hotel franchise, and the approval of any of the foregoing as manager or hotel franchise, as applicable, by Lender and the Rating Agencies will not be required. 

(Q) Financial Reporting. 
 (i) Each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall keep and maintain or shall cause to be kept and maintained, on a Fiscal Year basis, in accordance with GAAP, books, records and accounts reflecting in
reasonable detail all of the financial affairs of such Borrower or Operating Lessee, as applicable, and all items of income and expense in connection with the operation of the applicable Individual Properties and in connection with any services,

Borrower, Operating Lessee or other Person maintaining such books, 

  
 79 

 
records and accounts and to make such copies or extracts thereof as Lender shall desire. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall pay any out of pocket
costs and expenses incurred by Lender to examine any and all of such Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s books, records and accounts as Lender shall determine in Lender’s discretion to be necessary or appropriate in the protection of
Lender’s interest.

 86 

 
respect, either orally or in writing, and each Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and for the performance and observance of the terms,
covenants and conditions of this Loan Agreement, any and all rights, privileges and prerogatives of each Borrower to surrender any Franchise Agreement or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend any Franchise Agreement in any
respect, and any such surrender of any Franchise Agreement or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of any Franchise Agreement without the prior consent of Lender (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld) shall be void and of no force and effect. 
 (c) If any franchisee shall default in the performance or
observance of any material term, covenant or condition of any Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee thereunder to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, and without
waiving or releasing any Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants
and conditions of such Franchise Agreement on the part of the franchisee to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of such Borrower, to the end that the rights of said franchisee (and/or such Borrower and/or
Operating Lessee) in, to and under such Franchise Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Any such amounts so advanced by Lender together with interest thereon from the date expended by Lender of the Default Rate shall be part of
the Indebtedness and Borrower shall immediately repay such amounts to Lender upon demand. Pursuant to the terms of the applicable Subordination Attornment and Security Agreement and/or Assignment of Management Agreement, Lender and any person
designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the applicable Individual Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If any Franchisor shall deliver to Lender a copy of any
notice sent to any Borrower and/or Operating Lessee of any default under any Franchise Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon.

 (d) Each Borrower shall (or shall cause the applicable Operating Lessee to) exercise each individual option, if any, to extend
or renew the term of each Franchise Agreement upon demand by Lender made at any time within ninety (90) days prior to the last day upon which any such option may be exercised, and each Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender as
its attorney-in-fact to exercise (or cause the applicable Operating Lessee to exercise) any such option in the name of and upon behalf of such Borrower should such Borrower fail to do so, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be
deemed to be coupled with an interest. 
 (e) Any sums expended by Lender pursuant to this Section shall bear interest at the
Default Rate from the date such cost is incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Indebtedness, shall be secured by the lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due
and payable within two (2) Business Days after demand by Lender therefor.

 Section 7.2. Remedies. 

(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers and other
remedies available to Lender against Borrowers or any Borrower under this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents, or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and from time to time (including, without
limitation, the right to accelerate and declare the outstanding principal amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late Charges, Prepayment Premium and any other amounts owing by such Borrower to be immediately due and payable), without
notice or demand, whether or not all or any portion of the Indebtedness shall be declared due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its rights and remedies under
any of the Loan Documents with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral. Any such actions taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in
such order as Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the
other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary herein, the outstanding principal amount, unpaid interest, Default Rate interest, Late Charges, Prepayment Premium and any other amounts owing by any Borrower shall be
accelerated and immediately due and payable, without any election by Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(xii) or Section 7.1 (xiii). Notwithstanding that this Agreement may refer to a
continuing Event of Default, and without limiting any Borrower’s right to cure a Default which may, with the passage of time, become an Event of Default, no Borrower shall have any right pursuant to this Agreement to cure any Event of Default
unless permitted by Lender in writing. 
 Section 7.3. Remedies Cumulative. 

The rights, powers and remedies of Lender under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy
which Lender may have against any Borrower or any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents executed by or with respect to any Borrower or any other Person, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s
rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s discretion. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of
Default shall impair any such remedy, right or power or shall be construed as a waiver thereof, but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of any Default or Event of
Default shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Any and all of Lender’s rights with respect to the Collateral shall continue unimpaired, and
each Borrower shall be and remain obligated in accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding (i) the release or substitution of Collateral at any time, or of any rights or interest therein or (ii) any delay, extension of time, renewal,
compromise or other indulgence granted by Lender in the event of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Collateral or otherwise hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, but subject to Section 8.14
hereof, Lender reserves the right to seek a deficiency judgment or preserve a deficiency claim, in connection with the foreclosure of any or all Mortgages, to the extent necessary to foreclose on other parts of the Collateral. 

  
 94 

 Section 7.4. Lender’s Right to Perform. 

If any Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of (5) five
Business Days after such Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting Section 7.1 hereof, Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant
or obligation, and the expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrowers to Lender upon demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to send notice to such Borrower of any such failure.

agreement, or exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege hereunder, or under the Note, or of any other Loan Document, or any other instrument given as security herefore, shall operate as or constitute a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or

Lender shall have the right to assign in whole or in part this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents and the obligations
hereunder or thereunder to any Person and to participate all or any portion of the Loan evidenced hereby, including without limitation, any servicer or trustee in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction. Lender shall provide any Borrower with
written notice of any such assignment; provided, however, that such notice shall not be a condition of Lender’s right to assign this Agreement and/or any of the Loan Documents and the failure to deliver such notice shall not
constitute a default under this Loan Agreement. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a servicer and/or trustee selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to such servicer and.or trustee pursuant to a servicing agreement between Lender and such servicer and/or trustee.

other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the obligations hereunder or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in
full force and effect, as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. 
 Section 8.12. Waiver of
Notice.

 99 

 
except with respect to matters for which such Borrower is not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Each Borrower hereby expressly waives the right
to receive any notice from Lender with respect to any matter for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents does not specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to such Borrower. 

Section 8.13. Remedies of Borrower. 
 In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents, has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement, the Notes, any Mortgage
or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, shall be liable for any monetary damages, and each Borrower’s sole
remedies shall be limited to commencing an action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. The parties hereto agree that any action or proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined by an action seeking
declaratory judgment. 
 Section 8.14. Exculpation. 

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 8.14 and Section 4.2 to the contrary, Lender shall not enforce the
liability and obligation of any Borrower or Operating Lessee to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents executed and delivered by any Borrower or Operating Lessee
except that Lender may pursue any power of sale, bring a foreclosure action, action for specific performance, action for money judgment, or other appropriate action or proceeding (including, without limitation, to obtain a deficiency judgment)
against any or all Borrowers, or Operating Lessee or any other Person solely for the purpose of enabling Lender to realize upon (a) any Collateral, and (b) any Rents to the extent (x) received by any Borrower or any Manager (or any of
their affiliates), after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (y) distributed to any Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Manager, or their respective shareholders, or partners or members, as applicable, or affiliates during or with respect to
any period for which Lender did not receive the full amounts it was entitled to receive as prepayments of the Loan pursuant to Section 2.6(b) (all Rents covered by clauses (x) and (y) being hereinafter referred to
as the “Recourse Distributions”) and (c)) any other collateral given to Lender under the Loan Documents ((a), (b), and (c) collectively, the “Default Collateral”); provided, however, that
any judgment in any action or proceeding shall be enforceable only to the extent of any Default Collateral. The provisions of this Section 8.14 shall not, however, (a) impair the validity of the Indebtedness evidenced by the
Loan Documents or in any way affect or impair the Liens of any Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or the right of Lender to foreclose any Mortgage following an Event of Default; (b) impair the right of Lender to name any Person as a
party defendant in any action or suit for judicial foreclosure and sale under any Mortgage; (c) affect the validity or enforceability of the Note, any Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (d) impair the right of Lender to obtain the
appointment of a receiver; (e) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any Person any damages, losses, expenses, liabilities or costs resulting from fraud, willful misrepresentation, waste of all or any portion of any
Individual Property, or wrongful removal or disposal of all or any portion of any Individual Property by any Person in connection with this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (f)

  
 100

 
impair the right of Lender to obtain the Recourse Distributions received by any Person; (g) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any Person with respect to any
misappropriation of security deposits or Rents collected more than one (1) month in advance; (h) impair the right of Lender to obtain Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds due to Lender pursuant to any Mortgage; (i) impair the
right of Lender to enforce the provisions of Sections 4.1(V) or 5.1(D) through 5.1(G), inclusive of this Agreement, Section 2.8 of each Mortgage or the Environmental Indemnity even after repayment in full by any
Borrower of the Indebtedness; (j) prevent or in any way hinder Lender from exercising, or constitute a defense, or counterclaim, or other basis for relief in respect of the exercise of, any other remedy against any or all of the Collateral
securing the Note as provided in the Loan Documents; (k) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any person with respect to any misapplication of any funds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds and
condemnation proceeds); (l) impair the right of Lender to sue for, seek or demand a deficiency judgment against any Person solely for the purpose of foreclosing on any Collateral or any part thereof, or realizing upon the Default Collateral, or
(m) impair the right of Lender to bring suit for and recover against any Person any damages, losses, expenses, liabilities or costs in the event that Borrower or any Operating Lessee shall take any action of any kind or nature whatsoever,
either directly or indirectly to oppose, impede, obstruct, challenge, hinder, frustrate, enjoin or otherwise interfere with (A) Lender’s termination of any Operating Lease with any Operating Lessee, (B) Lender or the party acquiring
any Individual Property following the occurrence of a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof (in full substitution of the applicable Operating Lessee) being deemed the “Owner” under the Management Agreement, (C) the execution, delivery
or effectiveness of a new Management Agreement directly between Lender or the party acquiring any Individual Property following a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof and applicable Manager or (D) any payment or other transfer by any Manager of
funds which would otherwise be paid to any Operating Lessee under any Operating Lease directly to Lender or the party acquiring any Individual Property following the occurrence of a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof, in each case after or as a
result of any automatic termination of the applicable Operating Lease or of Lender exercising its right to terminate the Operating Lease, in each case pursuant to the applicable Subordination, Attornment and Security Agreement and this Agreement, or
shall, either directly or indirectly, cause or permit any other person to take any action which, if taken by such Operating Lessee would constitute an event described in this Section 8.14(m); provided, however, that
any deficiency judgment referred to in this Section 8.14(m) shall be enforceable only to the extent of any of the Default Collateral. The preceding provisions of this Section 8.14 shall be inapplicable to any Person if
(i) any petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or arrangement pursuant to federal or state law against any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall be filed by any Borrower, Operating Lessee, or any Affiliate of any Borrower or Operating Lessee,
(ii) if an involuntary bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced against any Borrower or Operating Lessee (by a party other than Lender) but only if such Borrower has consented or acquiesced to such proceeding or if Borrower,
Operating Lessee or any Affiliate of Borrower or Operating Lessee has acted in concert with, colluded or conspired with the party to cause the filing thereof or has consented to or acquiesced thereto, (iii) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall institute any proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of any Borrower or Operating Lessee, (iv) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (v) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee
shall breach any representation, warranty or covenant in Section 4.1(C) (such that such breach was considered by a court as a factor in the court’s finding for a 

  
 101

 consolidation of the assets of a Borrower or Operating Lessee with the assets of another person or entity or
as a result thereof Lender suffers any material damage, cost, liability or expense; provided, however, that in the absence of an actual consolidation, recourse may be had against Borrower or Operating Lessee only to the extent of losses for such
breach), 4.1(V), 4.1(AA), 5.1(T) (such that such breach was considered by a court as a factor in the court’s finding for a consolidation of the assets of a Borrower or Operating Lessee with the assets of another person or
entity or as a result thereof Lender suffers any material damage, cost, liability or expense; provided, however, that in the absence of an actual consolidation, recourse may be had against Borrower or Operating Lessee only to the extent of losses
for such breach) or 5.1(X), (v) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee allows any Transfer to occur in violation of Section 6.1(B) hereof or otherwise fails to obtain Lender’s prior written consent to any Transfer to the
extent any consent is required in the Loan Documents, (vi) any Borrower or Operating Lessee interferes with Lender’s exercise of any of its rights or remedies hereunder or (vii) if any Borrower or Operating Lessee breaches any
representation or warranty contained in Section 4.1(S). 
 Section 8.15. Exhibits Incorporated.

 The information set forth on the cover, heading and recitals hereof, and the Exhibits attached hereto, are hereby incorporated
herein as a part of this Agreement with the same effect as if set forth in the body hereof. 
 Section 8.16. Offsets,
Counterclaims and Defenses. 
 Any assignee of Lender’s interest in and to this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and
the other Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to the Loan, this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and the other Loan Documents which any Borrower may otherwise have against
any assignor, and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by any Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Agreement, the Note, any Mortgage and other Loan Documents and any such
right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by each Borrower. 
 Section 8.17. No Joint Venture or Partnership. 
 Each Borrower and
Lender intend that the relationship created hereunder be solely that of borrower and lender. Nothing herein is intended to create a joint venture, partnership, tenants-in-common, or joint tenancy relationship between any Borrower and Lender nor to
grant Lender any interest in any Individual Property other than that of mortgagee or lender. 
 Section 8.18. Waiver of
Marshalling of Assets Defense. 
 To the fullest extent that each Borrower may legally do so, each Borrower waives all rights
to a marshalling of the assets of each such Borrower, and others with interests in such Borrower, and of any Individual Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of the interests hereby created, and agrees not
to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead 

  
 102

 
exemption, the administration of estates of decedents, or any other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Lender under the Loan Documents to a sale of any Individual
Property for the collection of the Indebtedness without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Lender or Deed of Trust Trustee to the payment of the Indebtedness in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. 

Section 8.19. Waiver of Counterclaim. 
 Each Borrower hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against Borrower by Lender or Lender’s agents. 

Section 8.20. Conflict; Construction of Documents. 
 In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Notes, any Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. The
parties hereto acknowledge that they were represented by counsel in connection with the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning against the party
which drafted same. 
 Section 8.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. 

Borrower and Lender hereby represent that they have dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or
finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind in any way relating to or
arising from a claim by any Person, that such Person acted on behalf of any Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration and termination of this Agreement and
the repayment of the Indebtedness. 
 Section 8.22. Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all
of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 
 Section 8.23. Estoppel Certificates. 

Each Borrower and Lender each hereby agree at any time and from time to time upon not less than fifteen (15) days prior written
notice by any Borrower or Lender (but no more than four (4) times per year unless (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) such request is occasioned in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction) to execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the party specified in such notice, a statement, in writing, certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and
effect and stating the modifications hereto), and stating whether or not, to the knowledge of such certifying party, any Default or 

  
 103

 
Event of Default has occurred, and, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of Default; provided, however, that it shall be a condition precedent to Lender’s
obligation to deliver the statement pursuant to this Section, that Lender shall have received, together with Borrower’s request for such statement, an Officer’s Certificate stating that no Default or Event of Default exists as of
the date of such certificate (or specifying such Default or Event of Default). 
 Section 8.24. Payment of Expenses.

 Borrowers shall, whether or not the Transactions are consummated, pay all Transaction Costs, which shall include, without
limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of Lender and its attorneys, local counsel, accountants and other contractors in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein, (ii) the creation, perfection or protection of Lender’s Liens in the Collateral (including, without limitation, fees and expenses for title and lien searches and filing and
recording fees, intangibles taxes, personal property taxes, mortgage recording taxes, due diligence expenses, travel expenses, and accounting firm fees, costs of the Appraisals, Environmental Reports (and an environmental consultant), Surveys and
the Engineering Reports), (iii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any amendment, waiver or consent relating to any of the Loan Documents, and (iv) the preservation of rights under and enforcement of the Loan Documents
and the documents and instruments referred to therein, including any restructuring or rescheduling of the Indebtedness, to the extent expressly required hereunder. 
 Section 8.25. Bankruptcy Waiver. 
 Each Borrower hereby agrees that, in
consideration of the recitals and mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, if any Borrower (i) files with any bankruptcy court of competent
jurisdiction or be the subject of any petition under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (ii) is the subject of any order for relief issued under Title 11 of the U.S. Code, as amended, (iii) files or is the subject of any petition
seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors, (iv) has sought or consents to or acquiesces
in the appointment of any trustee, receiver, conservator or liquidator or (v) is the subject of any order, judgment or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction approving a petition filed against such party for any reorganization,
arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future federal or state act or law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief for debtors, the automatic stay provided by the Federal
Bankruptcy Code shall be modified and annulled as to Lender, so as to permit Lender to exercise any and all of its rights and remedies, upon request of Lender made on notice to any Borrower and any other party in interest but without the need of
further proof or hearing. Neither Borrower nor any Affiliate of any Borrower shall contest the enforceability of this Section. 

  
 104

 Section 8.26. Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the other Loan Documents and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties. 

Section 8.27. Dissemination of Information. 
 If Lender determines at any time to participate in a Secondary Market Transaction, Lender may forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or investor in such securities
(collectively, the “Investor”), any Rating Agency rating such securities, any organization maintaining databases on the underwriting and performance of commercial loans, trustee, counsel, accountant, and each prospective Investor,
all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Loan, any Borrower, any direct or indirect equity owner of any Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor and each Individual Property, which shall have been
furnished by such Borrower any Affiliate of any Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor, or any party to any Loan Document, or otherwise furnished in connection with the Loan, as Lender in its discretion determines necessary or desirable.

 Section 8.28. Limitation of Interest. 
 It is the intention of each Borrower and Lender to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious under applicable law, then, in that
event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received
under any Loan Document or otherwise in connection with the Loan shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited to principal by Lender (or if the Loan shall have been
paid in full, refunded to any Borrower); and (ii) in the event that maturity of the Loan is accelerated by reason of an election by Lender resulting from any default hereunder or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted
prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, if any,
provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore prepaid, shall be credited to principal (or if the principal portion of the Loan and any other
amounts not constituting interest shall have been paid in full, refunded to any Borrower.) 
 In determining whether or not the
interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law (a) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and
(b) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loan so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the entire term of the Loan; provided, that if the Loan
is paid and performed in full 

  
 105

 
prior to the end of the full contemplated term hereof, and if the interest received for the actual period of existence thereof exceeds the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, Lender shall
refund to any Borrower the amount of such excess, and in such event, Lender shall not be subject to any penalties provided by any laws for contracting for, charging or receiving interest in excess of the maximum amount allowed by applicable law.

 Section 8.29. Indemnification. 
 Borrowers shall indemnify and hold Lender and each other Indemnified Party harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including the fees and disbursements of outside counsel
retained by any such person) or liabilities in connection with, arising out of or as a result of the transactions and matters referred to or contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that any such
loss, claim, damage, cost, expense or liability resulted directly and solely from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action, proceeding or investigation in
connection with any transaction or matter referred to or contemplated in this Agreement, Borrowers shall periodically reimburse any Indemnified Party upon demand herefore in an amount equal to its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the
costs of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith to the extent such legal or other expenses are the subject of indemnification hereunder. IT IS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED BY EACH BORROWER THAT THE INDEMNITY (AND/OR
THE RELEASE) CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 8.29 PROTECTS LENDER FROM THE CONSEQUENCES OF LENDER’S ACTS OR OMISSIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF LENDER TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO RELIEVE THE LENDER FROM LIABILITY DUE TO ITS FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE. 
 Section 8.30. Borrower Acknowledgments. 
 Each Borrower hereby
acknowledges to and agrees with Lender that (i) the scope of Lender’s business is wide and includes, but is not limited to, financing, real estate financing, investment in real estate and other real estate transactions which may be viewed
as adverse to or competitive with the business of such Borrower or its Affiliates and (ii) such Borrower has been represented by competent legal counsel and such Borrower has consulted with such counsel prior to executing this Loan Agreement
and of the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 8.31. Publicity. 

Lender shall have the right to issue press releases, advertisements and other promotional materials describing Lender’s participation
in the origination of the Loan or the Loan’s inclusion in any Secondary Market Transaction effectuated or to be effectuated by Lender. All news releases, publicity or advertising by any Borrower or their affiliates through any media intended to
reach the general public which refers to the Loan Documents or the financing evidenced by the Loan Documents, to the Lender, Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending, Inc., or any of their respective affiliates shall be subject to the prior written approval
of Lender and Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending, Inc., except for disclosures required by law which shall not require Lender approval but which shall require prior written notice to Lender. 

  
 106

 Section 8.32. Intentionally omitted. 

Section 8.33. Cross-Collateralization. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary,
(a) the Loan and the Indebtedness shall be secured by each Individual Property, and (b) the Loan and the Indebtedness shall be cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with each of the other “Loans” referenced in the Cooperation
Agreement and the indebtedness relating thereto, each as described in and in accordance with the terms of the Cooperation Agreement. 
 Section 8.34. Time of the Essence. Each Borrower and Lender agrees that time is of the essence with regard to all obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 8.35. FINAL AGREEMENT. THE WRITTEN LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH THIS NOTICE RELATES REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 

Section 8.36. [Intentionally omitted] 
 Section 8.37. Joint and Several Liability. Each of the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for payment of the Indebtedness and performance of all other obligations of Borrowers (or
any of them) under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents. 
 Section 8.38. Loan Modification. Borrowers and
Lender acknowledge and agree that the Loan and the security therefore are subject to modification pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Cooperation Agreement. 
 Section 8.39. Consent Fees. In the event that Borrower intends to effectuate a transaction not permitted under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, in connection with
obtaining the consent of Lender or, if a Secondary Market Transaction has occurred, any loan servicer, Borrower shall be required to pay to Lender or any such loan servicer a maximum fee of $10,000 plus any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses of Lender or such loan servicer, as the case may be. 
 Section 8.40. Insurance, Casualty and Condemnation
Provisions. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott Property, so long as (a) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (b) Borrower participates in
Manager’s insurance programs as set forth in the Management Agreement, (c) no default has occurred and is continuing under any Management Agreement beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, and (d) Manager is
making all required insurance payments as and when due pursuant to each Management Agreement, Borrower shall not be required to make escrow payments relating to insurance matters to the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account hereunder. With respect to
each Marriott Property, so long as (x) Marriott is Manager of such Marriott Property, (y) Borrower participates in Manager’s insurance programs as set forth 

  
 107

 
in the Management Agreement, (z) no default has occurred and is continuing under any Management Agreement beyond the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, Borrower shall
strictly enforce the insurance, casualty and condemnation requirements and obligations set forth in the Manager’s Subordination, and shall provide to Lender acceptable evidence that such insurance is, at all times, in full force and effect as
regards to such Marriott Property. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to each Marriott Property, unless and until Marriott is no longer Manager of such Marriott Property pursuant to
the terms and provisions of the applicable Management Agreement, Lender acknowledges and agrees that the insurance, casualty and condemnation requirements set forth in the applicable Manager’s Subordination shall govern and control over any
inconsistent provisions set forth in the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. If at any time Marriott is no longer Manager of any Marriott Property pursuant to the terms and provisions of the applicable Management
Agreement, Borrower shall comply with all of the insurance, casualty and condemnation requirements and obligations set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents with respect to such Individual Property. 

Section 8.41. Assumption by New Borrowers; Release of Original Borrowers. Each Borrower that was not a party to the Original
Loan Agreement hereby assumes all of the rights, duties, obligations and liabilities of a “Borrower” with respect to the Loan and the Loan Documents, and agrees to be bound by all such Loan Documents. Each Original Borrower that is not a
“Borrower” hereunder is hereby released from any duties, obligations or liabilities with respect to the Loan accruing from and after the date hereof. 
 Section 8.42. Origination of Loan; Payments Made. The Original Loan was made by Lender on June 17, 2005. The Loan represents a restructuring of the Original Loan, and this Agreement
reflects the terms and conditions of the Loan as restructured. Prior to this Agreement, monthly payments of interest only on the Original Loan that were due and payable on the Payment Dates (as defined in the Original Loan Agreement) in August,
September and October, 2005, pursuant to the terms of the Original Loan Agreement and the promissory note relating thereto, were paid in full.
