The indemnification under this Section 8.8(a) shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, as to the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) above, on and after the first anniversary date of the Closing; provided, however, that (A) to the extent any of the representations and warranties survive for a longer period pursuant to Section 7.3, the foregoing indemnification relating to such representations and warranties shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on and after the expiration of such longer period and (B) the indemnification shall not terminate as to claims asserted in writing by Buyer or the Company before such first anniversary date or longer period, as the case may be.

(c) Indemnification Procedure for Claims of Third Parties. Indemnification, with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by those not parties to this Contract

(including governmental claims for penalties, fines and assessments), shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) The party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the party or parties from which it is seeking indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim for indemnification based on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.8, which notice shall state the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in giving notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation to indemnify unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay.

(ii) If in any action, suit or proceeding (a “Legal Action”) the relief sought is solely the payment of money damages, and if the Indemnifying Party specifically agrees in writing to indemnify such Indemnified Party with respect thereto and demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of such Indemnified Party its financial ability to do so, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, commencing thirty (30) days after such notice, at its option, to elect to settle, compromise or defend, pursuant to this paragraph, by its own counsel and at its own expense, any such Legal Action involving such Indemnified Party’s asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to settle, compromise or defend any such Legal Action, such settlement, compromise or defense shall be conducted in the sole discretion of such Indemnified Party, but such Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information concerning such settlement, compromise or defense as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request from time to time. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to settle, compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall notify such Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days of notice from such Indemnified Party provided above.

(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous subsection of this Contract, until the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Legal Action, the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party. Furthermore, (x) if the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (y) if the Legal Action involves other than money damages and seeks injunctive or other equitable relief; or (z) if a judgment against Buyer, as the Indemnified Party, in the Legal Action will, in the good faith opinion of Buyer, establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interest of the continuing business of the Hotel, the Indemnifying Party, shall not be entitled to assume the defense of the Legal Action and the defense shall be handled by the Indemnified Party, provided that, in the case of clause (z), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to approve legal counsel selected by the Indemnified Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or

conditioned. If the defense of the Legal Action is handled by the Indemnified Party under the provisions of this subsection, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in conducting such defense.

(iv) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnified Party (w) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, (x) the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully informed as to the status of such Legal Action at all stages thereof, whether or not the Indemnified Party is represented by its own counsel, (y) the Indemnifying Party shall make available to the Indemnified Party and its attorneys, accounts and other representatives, all of the Indemnifying Party’s books and records relating to such Legal Action and (z) the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Legal Action.

(v) In any Legal Action initiated by a third party and defended by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not make settlement of any claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be deemed unreasonable to withhold consent to a settlement involving injunctive or other equitable relief against Buyer or its respective assets, employees, Affiliates or business, or relief which Buyer reasonably believes could establish a custom or precedent which will be adverse to the best interests of its continuing business.

8.9 Limitations on Liability of Interest Owners. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the liability of each Interest Owner with respect to its representations, warranties, covenants and indemnifications contained in this Contract shall be limited to a percentage of the total liability of the Interest Owners with respect thereto equal to such Interest Owner’s percentage interest in the Company.

8.10 Contingent Reserve for Claims. Contingent reserves shall be established for the purposes and in the amounts specified below:

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Contract to the contrary, at the Closing, Buyer shall be entitled to hold in reserve from the Purchase Price the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Post-Closing Reserve”) to pay for any Post-Closing Claims (as hereinafter defined) under this Contract, as such sum may be reduced as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Section 8.10, “Post-Closing Claims” shall mean any post-closing claim by Buyer under this Contract, including (i) all claims under Section 8.8(a) hereof, (ii) all adjustments under Article XII thereof and (iii) all other obligations of the Interest Owners thereunder that survive Closing, but only if such claim is asserted by Buyer within six (6) months after the Closing under this Purchase Contract (the “Post-Closing Claim Period”). Except to the extent any Post-Closing Claims remain outstanding, any funds remaining in the Post-Closing

Reserve shall be paid to the Interest Owners upon the expiration of the Post-Closing Claim Period.

(b) Nothing contained in this Section 8.10 shall limit the personal liability of the Interest Owners for post-closing claims under this Purchase Contract to the extent the same may exceed in the aggregate the Post-Closing Reserve or to the extent the same may be asserted by Buyer after any applicable Post-Closing Claim Period, subject to any other limitations and conditions set forth in this Contract.

8.11 Tax Matters. Without the prior written consent of Buyer, neither the Company nor any of the Interest Owners shall make or change any election, change an annual accounting period, adopt or change any accounting method, file any amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, consent to any extension or waiver of the limitation period applicable to any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company, or take any other similar action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment of any Tax, if such election, adoption, change, amendment, agreement, settlement, surrender, consent or other action would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability of the Company for any period ending after the Closing Date or decreasing any Tax attribute of the Company existing on the Closing Date.

The date on which the Closing is to occur as provided in this Section 10.1, or such other date as may be agreed upon by Buyer and the Interest Owners, is referred to in this Contract as the “Closing Date” for the Property. The Closing shall be held at 10:00 a.m. at the offices of the Title Company, or as otherwise determined by Buyer and the Interest Owners.

At Closing, the Interest Owners or the Company, as applicable, shall deliver to Buyer the following, and, as appropriate, all instruments shall be properly executed and conveyance instruments shall be acknowledged in recordable form (the terms, provisions and conditions of all instruments not attached hereto as Exhibits shall be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and the Interest Owners prior to such Closing).

(d) Certified copies of resolutions and/or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer that the person or persons executing the closing documents on behalf of the Company and the Interest Owners have full right, power and authority to do so, along with a certificate of good standing of each Interest Owner that is an entity from the state in which Interest Owner is organized or incorporated;

(e) To the extent not previously delivered to and in the possession of Buyer, all Contracts, Plans and Specs, all Warranties and all keys for the Hotel (which keys shall be properly tagged for identification);

(f) A closing statement to evidence the parties’ agreement regarding the allocations, pro-rations and hold-backs relating to the Property, the payment of closing costs as allocated hereunder, and any resulting adjustment of the Purchase Price;

(g) Evidence satisfactory to Buyer of the termination of the Existing Management Agreement and the Existing Franchise Agreement and execution and delivery by the New Manager of the New Management Agreement;

(h) All affidavits, gap indemnity agreements and other documents reasonably required by the Title Company. At Buyer’s sole expense, Buyer shall have obtained an irrevocable commitment directly from the Title Company for issuance of an Owner’s Policy of Title Insurance to the Company insuring good and marketable fee simple absolute title (or leasehold title if so identified in Item 4 of Schedule 1) to the Real Property constituting part of the Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions in the amount of the Purchase Price, together with an nonimputation endorsement; and

(i) Such other instruments as are contemplated by this Contract to be executed or delivered by the Company or any Interest Owner, or reasonably required by Buyer or the Title Company, or customarily executed in the jurisdiction in which the Hotel is located, to effectuate the assignment of all of the Interests to Buyer and the other Contemplated Transactions, with the effect that, after the Closing, Buyer will have succeeded to all of the rights, titles, and interests in the Company and the Company will own good and marketable fee simple title to the Land and the Hotel in accordance with this Contract.

10.3 Buyer’s Deliveries. On or prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay the Interest Owners the Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to this Contract, and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Interest Owners the following agreements, documents and other items, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Interest Owners:

(b) such additional documents as might be reasonably requested by the Interest Owners to evidence Buyer’s authority to consummate the purchase of the Interests from the Interest Owners.

10.4 Tax Matters. The following provisions shall govern the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer and Sellers for certain tax matters following the Closing Date:

(a) Tax Indemnification. Each of the Interest Owners shall indemnify Buyer, and hold it harmless from and against (without duplication), any loss, claim, liability, expense, or other damage attributable to (i) all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) of the Company for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion through the end of the Closing Date for any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”), and (ii) any and all Taxes of any person (other than the Company) imposed on the Company as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any law, rule, or regulation, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing.

(b) Straddle Period. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the Company for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which the Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time) and the amount of other Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c) Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for the Company that are filed after the Closing Date. Buyer shall permit the Interest Owners to review and comment on each such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence prior to filing.

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(i) Buyer, the Company, and the Interest Owners shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this section and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Interest Owners agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or the Company or Interest Owners, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give Buyer reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if Buyer so requests, the Interest Owners shall allow Buyer to take possession of such books and records.

(ii) Buyer, the Company, and the Interest Owners further agree, upon request, to use their best efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

(iii) Buyer, the Company, and the Interest Owners further agree, upon request, to provide the other Party with all information that either Party may be required to report pursuant to Code §6043 and all Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(e) Survival. The provisions of this Section 10.4 shall survive the Closing for a period ending on the later of (i) three (3) years following the date on which the Company files its Tax Return for the tax period ended December 31, 2006 or (ii) the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations that may be extended.

ARTICLE XII

ADJUSTMENTS

12.1 Adjustments. Unless otherwise provided herein, at Closing, adjustments between the parties shall be made as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date (the “Cutoff Time”), with the income and expenses accrued prior to the Closing Date being allocated to the Interest Owners and the income and expenses accruing on and after the Closing Date being allocated to Buyer, as if the Contemplated Transactions were a transfer of the Hotel rather than a transfer of the Interests, all as set forth below. Subject to the foregoing and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all apportionments and adjustments shall be made on an accrual basis in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts for the Lodging Industry (9^th Revised Edition) published by the American Hotel & Lodging Association.

(a) Taxes. All real estate taxes, personal property taxes, or any other taxes and special assessments (special or otherwise) of any nature upon the Property levied, assessed or pending for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs (including the period prior to Closing, regardless of when due and payable) shall be prorated as of the Cutoff Time and, if no tax bills or assessment statements for such calendar year are available, such amounts shall be estimated on the basis of the best available information for such taxes and assessments that will be due and payable on the Hotel for the calendar year in which Closing occurs.

(b) Utilities. All suppliers of utilities shall be instructed to read meters or otherwise determine the charges owing as of the Closing Date for services prior thereto, which charges shall be allocated to the Interest Owners. Charges accruing after the Cutoff Time shall be allocated to Buyer.

(c) Income/Charges. All rents, income and charges receivable or payable under any Leases and Hotel Contracts applicable to the Property, and any deposits, prepayments and receipts thereunder, shall be prorated between Buyer and the Interest Owners as of the Cutoff Time.

(d) Accounts. The Interest Owners shall be entitled to retain the Hotel’s working capital account and to withdraw all funds contained therein as of the Cutoff Time. The Interest Owners shall receive a credit in the amount of the aggregate balance as of the Cutoff Time in the FF&E reserve account and escrow accounts (including all PIP accounts and all amounts held in tax and insurance escrow accounts), plus the amount of all utility deposits, ▇▇▇▇▇ cash, cash in cash registers and cash in vending machines, all of which accounts and cash shall remain with the Company after the Closing. All other accounts, reserves and escrows, if any, held by the Company or by the Existing Manager, any Lender or any other Person on the Company’s behalf shall remain the property of the Company and be credited to Buyer, without additional charge to Buyer and without Buyer being required to fund the same.

(e) Room Revenues. All revenues from guest room rentals and other suite revenues for the period before the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Interest Owners, and all

such revenues for the period after the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Buyer. All such revenues for the night in which the Cutoff Time occurs shall be credited to the Interest Owners, but the Interest Owners shall provide the Buyer credit at Closing equal to the reasonable expenses to be incurred to clean such guests’ rooms.

(f) Employee Costs. Except as provided in (e) above, all wages and other costs for housekeeping and Hotel personnel shall be prorated between Buyer and the Interest Owners as of the Cutoff Time.

(g) Advance Deposits. All prepaid rentals, room rental deposits, and all other deposits for advance registration, banquets or future services to be provided on and after the Closing Date shall be credited to Buyer.

(h) Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable and credit card claims as of the Cutoff Time shall be transferred to the Interest Owners and shall not be a credit to the Interest Owners at Closing. The Interest Owners and Buyer agree, and Buyer shall instruct the New Manager, that the monies received from debtors owing such accounts receivable balances after Closing shall be payable to the Interest Owners.

(i) Accounts Payable. Any indebtedness, accounts payable, liabilities or obligations of any kind or nature related to the Company or the Property for the periods prior to the Cutoff Time shall be allocated to the Interest Owners, and Buyer shall not be or become liable therefor, except as expressly assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Contract, and invoices received in the ordinary course of business prior to Closing shall be allocated to the Interest Owners at Closing.

(j) Restaurants, Bars, Machines, Other Income. All monies received in connection with bar, restaurant, banquet and similar and other services at the Hotel (other than amounts due from any guest and included in room rentals) prior to the close of business for each such operation for the night in which the Cutoff Time occurs shall be credited to the Interest Owners, and all other receipts and revenues (not previously described in this Section 12.1) from the operation of any department of the Hotel shall be prorated between the Interest Owners and Buyer at Closing.

(k) Interest on Assumed Loan. In the case of an Assumed Loan, if any, the accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be prorated as of the Cutoff Time.

12.2 Reconciliation and Final Payment. The Interest Owners and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate after Closing to make a final determination of the allocations and prorations required under this Contract within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date. Upon the final reconciliation of the allocations and prorations under this Section, the party which owes the other party any sums hereunder shall pay such party such sums within ten (10) days after the reconciliation of such sums. The obligations to calculate such prorations, make such reconciliations and pay any such sums shall survive the Closing.

12.3 Employees. Unless Buyer expressly agrees otherwise, none of the employees of the Company shall become employees of Buyer as of the Closing Date; instead, such employees shall be terminated by the Company and shall be rehired as employees of the New Manager with all seniority, wages and benefits of each employee transferring with each employee to the New Manager. Neither the Company nor the Interest Owners shall give notice under any applicable federal or state plant closing or similar act, including, if applicable, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification provisions of 29 U.S.C., Section 2102, the parties having agreed that a mass layoff, as that term is defined in 29 U.S.C., Section 2101(a)(3), will not have occurred. Any liability for payment of all wages, salaries and benefits, including, without limitation, accrued vacation pay, sick leave, bonuses, pension benefits, health care continuation rights and other benefits accrued or earned by and due to employees at the Hotel through the Cutoff Time, together with F.I.C.A., unemployment and other taxes and benefits due with respect to such employees for such period, shall not in any way become the legal obligation of Buyer or the Company but shall be charged to the Interest Owners for the purposes of the adjustments to be made as of the Cutoff Time, and neither the Company nor Buyer shall have any liability therefor, nor shall either the Company or Buyer be liable for any contributions, fees, premiums, expenses, penalties or other payments required as a result of such employees’ employment by the Company and/or coverage under any Employee Plan of the Company before the Closing. All liability for wages, salaries and benefits of the employees accruing in respect of and attributable to the period from and after the Cutoff Time shall be charged to the New Manager and reimbursed by the Company to the New Manager to the extent required under the New Management Agreement.

ARTICLE XIII

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

13.1 Risk of Loss; Notice. Prior to Closing and the sale of the Interests to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, all risk of loss to the Property (whether by casualty, condemnation or otherwise) shall be borne by the Interest Owners. In the event that (a) any loss or damage to the Hotel shall occur prior to the Closing Date as a result of fire or other casualty, or (b) the Company receives notice that a governmental authority has initiated or threatened to initiate a condemnation proceeding affecting the Hotel, the Interest Owners shall give Buyer immediate written notice of such loss, damage or condemnation proceeding (which notice shall include a certification of (i) the amounts of insurance coverages in effect with respect to the loss or damage and (ii) if known, the amount of the award to be received in such condemnation).

13.2 Buyer’s Termination Right. If, prior to Closing and the sale of the Interests to Buyer in accordance with this Contract, (a) any condemnation proceeding shall be pending against a substantial portion of the Hotel or (b) there is any substantial casualty loss or damage to the Hotel, Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Contract, provided Buyer delivers written notice to the Company of its election within twenty (20) days after the date the Interest Owners have delivered to Buyer written notice of any such loss, damage or condemnation as provided above, and in such event, the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit, and any interest thereon, shall be delivered to Buyer and thereafter, except as expressly set forth herein, no party shall have any further

obligation or liability to the other under this Contract. In the context of condemnation, “substantial” shall mean condemnation of such portion of the Hotel (or access thereto) as could, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment, render use of the remainder impractical or unfeasible for the uses herein contemplated, and, in the context of casualty loss or damage, “substantial” shall mean a loss or damage in excess of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) in value.

13.3 Procedure for Closing. If Buyer shall not timely elect to terminate this Contract under Section 13.2 above, or if the loss, damage or condemnation is not substantial, all insurance proceeds or condemnation awards which the Company has received as a result of the same, plus an amount equal to the insurance deductible shall be paid or credited to Buyer, and all insurance proceeds and condemnation awards payable as a result of the same shall be paid or credited to Buyer, in which event the Closing shall occur without replacing or repairing such damage. In the case of damage or casualty, at Buyer’s election, the Property shall be repaired and restored to its condition immediately prior to such damage or casualty, and all excess insurance proceeds shall be credited to Buyer.

ARTICLE XIV

DEFAULT REMEDIES

14.1 Buyer Default. If Buyer defaults under this Contract after the Review Period, and such default continues for ten (10) days following written notice from the Company (provided no notice shall extend the time for Closing), then at the election of a majority of the Interest Owners by written notice to Buyer, this Contract shall be terminated and of no effect, in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit, including any interest thereon, shall be paid to and retained by the Interest Owners as the sole and exclusive remedy of the Interest Owners and the Company hereunder, as liquidated damages for Buyer’s default or failure to close, and both Buyer and the Interest Owners shall thereupon be released from all obligations hereunder.

14.2 Interest Owner/Company Default. If any Interest Owner or (before the Closing) the Company defaults under this Contract, and such default continues for ten (10) days following written notice from Buyer, Buyer may elect, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy, either (i) to terminate this Contract by written notice to the Company delivered at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Deposit, including any interest thereon, shall be returned to the Buyer, and thereafter both the Buyer and the Interest Owners shall thereupon be released from all obligations with respect to this Contract, except as otherwise expressly provided herein; or (ii) to treat this Contract as being in full force and effect by written notice to the Company delivered at any time prior to the completion of such cure, in which event the Buyer shall have the right to an action against the Interest Owners and/or the Company for damages, specific performance and all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

14.3 Attorney’s Fees. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, if it shall be necessary for either the Buyer or the Interest Owners to employ an attorney to enforce its rights

pursuant to this Contract because of the default of the other party, and the non-defaulting party is successful in enforcing such rights, then the defaulting party shall reimburse the non-defaulting party for the non-defaulting party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses.
