Section 2.2. Interest Rate.

2.2.1. Interest Rate. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.2, interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan shall accrue from (and include) the Closing Date through the end of the last Interest Period at the Floating Interest Rate for such Component. The total interest accrued under the Loan shall be the sum of the interest accrued on each Component. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date the interest accrued (or to be accrued) on the outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan for the related Interest Period.

2.2.2. Interest Calculation. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Component of the Loan shall be calculated by multiplying (a) the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant Interest Period for which the calculation is being made by (b) a daily rate based on the rate described in Section 2.2.3 and a three hundred sixty (360) day year by (c) the outstanding principal balance of such Component of the Loan.

2.2.3. Determination of Interest Rate. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.3, each Component of the Loan shall bear interest at the Floating Interest Rate applicable to such Component. The Floating Interest Rate applicable to an Interest Period shall be determined by Lender as set forth herein; provided, however, that LIBOR for the Interest Period commencing on the Closing Date through and including July 14, 2017, shall be 1.2233%.

(b) In the event that Lender shall have reasonably determined that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market LIBOR cannot be determined as provided in the definition of LIBOR as set forth herein, then Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof by telephone of such fact, confirmed in writing, to Borrower at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Determination Date. If such notice is given, the Loan shall be converted, from and after the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period, to a Prime Rate Loan bearing interest based on the Prime Rate in effect on the related Determination Date.

(c) If, pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2.3(b) above, the Loan has been converted to a Prime Rate Loan but thereafter LIBOR can again be determined as provided in the definition of LIBOR as set forth herein, Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower and convert the Prime Rate Loan back to a Floating Interest Rate Loan by delivering to Borrower notice of such conversion no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City Time), one (1) Business Day prior to the next succeeding Determination Date, and the Loan shall be converted to a Floating Interest Rate Loan from, after and including the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Borrower have the right to elect to convert a Floating Interest Rate Loan to a Prime Rate Loan.

(d) Intentionally Omitted.

(e) If the adoption of any requirement of law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall hereafter make it unlawful for Lender to make or maintain a Floating Interest Rate Loan as contemplated hereunder, (i) the obligation of Lender hereunder to make a Floating Interest Rate Loan or to convert a Prime Rate Loan to a Floating Interest Rate Loan shall be canceled forthwith and (ii) any outstanding Floating Interest Rate Loan shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Loan on the first day of the next

-58-

succeeding Interest Period or within such earlier period as required by law. Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for any costs incurred by Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain the Floating Interest Rate Loan hereunder. Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) In the event that any change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) hereafter issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(i) shall hereafter impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of LIBOR hereunder;

(ii) shall hereafter have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved under the Loan Documents but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by any amount deemed by Lender to be material;

(iii) shall hereafter subject any Lender to any Section 2.7 Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iv) shall hereafter impose on Lender any other condition (other than Section 2.7 Taxes) and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender of making, renewing or maintaining loans or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder;

then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay Lender, upon demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which Lender deems to be material as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.2.3(f), Lender shall provide Borrower with not less than thirty (30) days written notice specifying in reasonable detail the event by reason of which it has become so entitled and the additional amount required to fully compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any additional costs or amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Subject to Section 2.2.3(h) hereof, this provision shall survive payment of the Note and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

-59-

(g) Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 for any increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder, or any reduced rate of return, which was incurred or which accrued prior to the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days before the date Lender notified Borrower of the change in law or other circumstance on which such claim for compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.2.3, which statement shall be conclusive and binding on all parties absent manifest error and (ii) any earlier date provided Lender notified Borrower of such change in law or circumstance and delivered the written statement referenced in clause (i) within ninety (90) days after Lender received written notice of such change in law or circumstance.

(h) Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of (i) any default by Borrower in payment of the principal of or interest on a Floating Interest Rate Loan, including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to third-party lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a Floating Interest Rate Loan hereunder, (ii) any prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of the Floating Interest Rate Loan on a day that (A) is not a Payment Date or (B) is a Payment Date if Borrower did not give the prior written notice of such prepayment required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to third-party lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Floating Interest Rate Loan hereunder and (iii) the conversion pursuant to the terms hereof of the Floating Interest Rate Loan to the Prime Rate Loan on a date other than the Payment Date, including, without limitation, such loss or expenses arising from interest or fees payable by Lender to third-party lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain a Floating Interest Rate Loan hereunder (the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are herein referred to collectively as the “Breakage Costs”), in each case, subject to Sections 2.4.1 and 2.4.2; provided, however, Borrower shall not indemnify Lender from any loss or expense arising from Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. This provision shall survive payment of the Note in full and the satisfaction of all other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

2.2.4. Additional Costs. Lender will use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to maintain the availability of the Floating Interest Rate Loan and to avoid or reduce any increased or additional costs payable by Borrower under Section 2.2.3, including, if requested by Borrower, a transfer or assignment of the Loan to a branch, office or Affiliate of Lender in another jurisdiction, or a redesignation of its lending office with respect to the Loan, in order to maintain the availability of the Floating Interest Rate Loan or to avoid or reduce such increased or additional costs, provided that the transfer or assignment or redesignation (a) would not result in any additional costs, expenses or risk to Lender that are not reimbursed by Borrower and (b) would not be disadvantageous in any other respect to Lender (including the effect on any Securitization) as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion.

2.2.5. Default Rate. In the event that, and for so long as, any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan and, to the extent permitted by law, all accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Loan and any other amounts due pursuant to the Loan Documents, shall accrue interest at the Default Rate, calculated from the date such payment was due without regard to any grace or cure periods contained herein.

-60-

2.2.6. Usury Savings. This Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance of the Loan at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate. If, by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to the Maximum Legal Rate and all previous payments in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the sums due under the Loan, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Loan does not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Loan for so long as the Loan is outstanding.

2.2.7. Interest Rate Cap Agreement. (a) Prior to or contemporaneously with the Closing Date, Borrower shall enter into an Interest Rate Cap Agreement, on behalf of itself and the other Borrowers, with a LIBOR strike price no greater than the Strike Price. The Interest Rate Cap Agreement (i) shall at all times be in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Lender with respect to such matters not otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (ii) shall at all times be with an Acceptable Counterparty, (iii) shall direct such Acceptable Counterparty to deposit directly into the account specified in the Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement, or from and after an Event of Default as directed by Lender, any amounts due Borrower under such Interest Rate Cap Agreement so long as any portion of the Debt exists, provided that the Debt shall be deemed to exist if the Properties are transferred by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof, (iv) shall be for a period equal to the then existing term of the Loan and (v) shall at all times have a notional amount equal to or greater than the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan and shall at all times provide for the applicable Strike Price. Borrower shall collaterally assign to Lender, pursuant to the Collateral Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement (the “Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement”), all of its right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and shall deliver to Lender an executed counterpart of such Assignment of Interest Rate Cap Agreement (which shall, by its terms, authorize the assignment to Lender and require that payments be deposited directly into a Concentration Account) and shall notify the Acceptable Counterparty of such assignment.

-61-

(b) Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. All amounts paid by the Acceptable Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement to Borrower or Lender shall be directly deposited immediately into a Concentration Account or, during the continuance of an Event of Default, into such account as specified by Lender. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in the event of a default by the Acceptable Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder without Lender’s prior consent.

(c) In the event of any downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the rating of the Acceptable Counterparty by any Approved Rating Agency such that it is no longer an Acceptable Counterparty, Borrower shall replace or cause the cap provider to replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement not later than the period of time provided for in such Interest Rate Cap Agreement following such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification (not to exceed ten (10) Business Days), provided, Borrower shall not be required to replace the Interest Rate Cap Agreement with a Replacement Interest Rate Cap Agreement so long as within ten (10) Business Days of such downgrade, withdrawal or qualification, the Acceptable Counterparty under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement either (x) provides a guarantor of its obligations that is an Acceptable Counterparty pursuant to such terms as are acceptable to the Approved Rating Agencies or (y) delivers collateral to secure Borrower’s exposure under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in such amount and pursuant to such terms as are acceptable to the Approved Rating Agencies.

(d) In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Lender the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or fails to maintain the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Lender may purchase the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the cost incurred by Lender in purchasing such Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Lender until such cost is reimbursed by Borrower to Lender.

(e) In connection with the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender within ten (10) Business Days following (x) the date upon which an Interest Rate Cap Agreement is required pursuant to Section 2.2.7(a) or (y) the first day of any applicable Extension Term, as applicable (a) a resolution/consent, as applicable, of the Acceptable Counterparty authorizing the delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement acceptable to Lender, and (b) an opinion from counsel (which counsel may be in house counsel for the Acceptable Counterparty) for the Acceptable Counterparty (upon which Lender and its successors and assigns may rely) which shall provide, in relevant part, that:

(i) the Acceptable Counterparty is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation and has the organizational power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Interest Rate Cap Agreement;

(ii) the execution and delivery of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement by the Acceptable Counterparty, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been and remain duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of its certificate of incorporation or by laws (or equivalent organizational documents) or any law, regulation or contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or its property;

-62-

(iii) all consents, authorizations and approvals required for the execution and delivery by the Acceptable Counterparty of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been obtained and remain in full force and effect, all conditions thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for such execution, delivery or performance; and

(iv) the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and any other agreement which the Acceptable Counterparty has executed and delivered pursuant thereto, has been duly executed and delivered by the Acceptable Counterparty and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Acceptable Counterparty, enforceable against the Acceptable Counterparty in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(f) At such time as the Loan is repaid in full, all of Lender’s right, title and interest in and to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall execute and deliver such documents as may be required to evidence Lender’s release of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and to notify the Acceptable Counterparty of such release.

After the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply such Net Proceeds Prepayment to the Debt (until paid in full) in any order or priority in its sole discretion. Other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Spread Maintenance Payment or other premium, penalty or charge shall be due in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2. The Amortized Release Amount with respect to such Individual Property shall be reduced in accordance with its definition; provided, that nothing herein shall be construed to reduce the aggregate Adjusted Release Amount for any Individual Property required to be paid to Lender prior to obtaining a release of the applicable Individual Property. Lender shall provide to Borrower, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice, (i) a release of the Individual Property (and any related collateral) if (A) at any time the Amortized Release Amount is reduced to zero, together with such additional documents and instruments evidencing or confirming the release as the Borrower shall reasonably request, or (B) Lender is required to deliver such release pursuant to a court order issued in connection with a Condemnation or (ii) a release of the portion of an Individual Property that is subject to a Condemnation. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4.2(a) shall not count towards the Free Prepayment Amount.

(b) In connection with any release under this Section 2.4.2, in the event that such release would result in the release of all Individual Properties held by an Individual Borrower (each an “Unencumbered Borrower”), such Unencumbered Borrower shall be released by Lender from the obligations of the Loan Documents, except with respect to those obligations that are expressly provided herein to survive repayment of the Loan pursuant to the Loan Documents, and shall no longer be considered an Individual Borrower for purposes of this Agreement and, for so long as any Properties are subject to the Operating Lease, BRE Select Hotels Properties Borrower shall not be released by Lender from the obligations of the Loan Documents. In connection with a release or cancellation of each Unencumbered Borrower, Lender agrees to deliver (i) a UCC-3 Financing Statement termination or amendment releasing Lender’s security interest in the collateral pledged to Lender relating to such Unencumbered Borrower, and (ii) instruments executed by Lender reasonably necessary to evidence the release or cancellation of such Unencumbered Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such release shall be paid by Borrower.

(c) As provided in Section 6.4(f) hereof, each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment tendered by Borrower to Lender in accordance with said Section 6.4(f) shall be in the amount of the Adjusted Release Amount in respect of the applicable Individual Property. No Spread Maintenance Premium or other penalty or premium shall be due in connection with any such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment.

-67-

2.4.3. Prepayments After Default. If, during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all or any part of the Debt is tendered by Borrower or otherwise recovered by Lender (including, without limitation, through application of any Reserve Funds), such tender or recovery shall (a) include interest at the Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of the Loan through the last calendar day of the Interest Period within which such tender or recovery occurs and (b) be deemed a voluntary prepayment by Borrower and shall in all instances include (i) an amount equal to the Spread Maintenance Payment (to the extent the amount prepaid is in excess of the Free Prepayment Amount) if such tender or recovery occurs prior to the Spread Maintenance End Date, and (ii) following a rated Securitization, the Additional Interest. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply such payment to the Debt (until paid in full) in any order or priority in its sole discretion.

2.4.4. Application of Prepayments to Components. Except for any prepayment made prior to a rated Securitization of the Loan and any prepayment of any portion of the Free Prepayment Amount made after a rated Securitization of the Loan, any mandatory prepayment of the principal of the Loan made pursuant to Section 2.4.2 hereof and any other voluntary prepayments of principal of the Loan made pursuant to Section 2.4.1 or otherwise when no Event of Default exists shall be applied by Lender between the Components as follows: (a) first, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component A, until reduced to zero, (b) second, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component B until reduced to zero, (c) third, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component C until reduced to zero, (iv) fourth, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component D until reduced to zero, (v) fifth, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component E until reduced to zero, and (vi) sixth, to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of Component F until reduced to zero.

Section 2.5. Release of Property. Except as set forth in Section 2.4.2 or this Section 2.5, no repayment or prepayment of all or any portion of the Loan shall cause, give rise to a right to require, or otherwise result in, the release of any Lien of any Mortgage on any Individual Property.

In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release (or assignment), together with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements and (ii) will effect such release (or assignment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall pay all reasonable third-party costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such release (or assignment) and the then current reasonable and customary fee being assessed by Servicer, if any, to effect such release (or assignment).

2.5.2. Release of Individual Property. If Borrower has elected to prepay a portion of the Loan and the requirements of Section 2.4.1 and this Section 2.5.2 have been satisfied, and provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may, at any time, obtain the release of such Individual Property from the Lien of the Mortgage thereon (or at Borrower’s option, an assignment thereof to one or more designees of Borrower) and related Loan Documents, and the release of Borrower’s and/or Operating Lessee’s obligations under the Loan Documents with respect to such Individual Property (other than those expressly stated in the Loan Documents to survive), upon the satisfaction of all of the following conditions:

In addition, Borrower shall provide all other documentation Lender reasonably requires to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release (or assignment), together with an

-69-

Officer’s Certificate certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance with all Legal Requirements, (ii) will effect such release (or assignment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (iii) will not impair or otherwise adversely affect the Liens and security interests granted under the Loan Documents and not being released (or assigned) (or as to the parties to the Loan Documents and Properties subject to the Loan Documents not being released (or assigned));

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents, clause (ii) of the definition of Release Debt Yield shall not be applicable unless and until the creation or origination of a Mezzanine Loan.

(f) Concurrently with the payment of the Adjusted Release Amount, each Mezzanine Borrower (if any) shall make a partial prepayment of the related Mezzanine Loan equal to the applicable Mezzanine Adjusted Release Amount applicable to such Individual Property, together with any related interest, fees, prepayment premiums or other amounts payable as set forth in Section 2.5.2(a) of the applicable Mezzanine Loan Agreement in connection with such prepayment;

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if the Loan is included in a REMIC Trust and the Loan-to-Value Ratio exceeds or would exceed 125% immediately after giving effect to the release of the applicable Individual Property, no release will be permitted unless the principal balance of the Loan is prepaid by an amount not less than the greater of (i) the Adjusted Release Amount or (ii) the least of the following amounts: (A) only if the released Individual Property is sold, the net proceeds of an arm’s-length sale of the released Individual Property to an unrelated Person, (B) the fair market value of the released Individual Property as reasonably determined by Lender at the time of the release, or (C) an amount such that the Loan-to-Value Ratio after giving effect to the release of the applicable Individual Property is not greater than the Loan-to-Value Ratio immediately prior to such release, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that, if this clause (ii) is applicable but not followed or is no longer applicable at the time of such release, the Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the release of the applicable Individual Property;

(j) In connection with any release under this Section 2.5, in the event that such release would result in an Unencumbered Borrower, such Unencumbered Borrower shall be released by Lender from the obligations of the Loan Documents, except with respect to those obligations that are expressly provided herein to survive repayment of the Loan.

As soon as practicable after any payment of Section 2.7 Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.7, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

- 78 -

(e) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Section 2.7 Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.7(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Section 2.7 Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Section 2.7 Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

- 79 -

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is a partnership or is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Section 2.7 Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to a withholding Section 2.7 Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

- 80 -

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Section 2.7 Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.7 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Section 2.7 Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Section 2.7 Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Section 2.7 Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Section 2.7 Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Section 2.7 Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.7 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.7, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay pursuant to this Section 2.7, and Lender shall not be entitled to claim compensation pursuant to this Section 2.7 for any amounts which were incurred or which accrued more than ninety (90) days before the date Lender notified Borrower of the circumstance on which such claim of compensation is based and delivered to Borrower a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the amounts payable by Borrower under this Section 2.7.

(h) Lender hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence of any circumstances entitling Lender to additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.7, Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different applicable lending office for the receipt of payments with respect to, or the funding or booking of, its Loan hereunder, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation (i) would eliminate or reduce such additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.7 in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation.

- 81 -

Section 2.8. Extension of the Initial Maturity Date. Borrower shall have the option to extend the Initial Maturity Date of the Loan for five (5) successive terms (each such option, an “Extension Option” and each such successive term, an “Extension Term”) of one (1) year each (the Maturity Date following the exercise of each such option is hereinafter the “Extended Maturity Date”) upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions:

(a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the commencement of the applicable Extension Term;

(b) Borrower shall provide Lender with written revocable notice of its election to extend the Maturity Date as aforesaid not later than thirty (30) days and not earlier than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the date the Loan is then scheduled to mature (provided that if Borrower shall subsequently revoke such notice, Borrower shall be responsible for Lender’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with same);

(c) if the Interest Rate Cap Agreement is scheduled to mature prior to the applicable Extended Maturity Date, Borrower shall obtain and deliver to Lender on the first day of each Extension Option, one or more Interest Rate Cap Agreements in form substantially identical to the Interest Rate Cap Agreements delivered to Lender in connection with the closing of the Loan or in a form otherwise reasonably acceptable to Lender from an Acceptable Counterparty in a notional amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, which Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall have a LIBOR strike price that is not greater than the Strike Price and be effective commencing on the first date of such Extension Option and shall have a maturity date not earlier than the applicable Extended Maturity Date after giving effect to the option then being exercised;

(d) if any Mezzanine Loan is then outstanding, Lender shall have received evidence that each such Mezzanine Loan shall have a maturity date not earlier than the Extended Maturity Date or shall have been repaid or extended (or will be contemporaneously extended) through a date not earlier than the applicable Extended Maturity Date; and.

(e) the Spread with respect to each Component shall be increased by 12.5 basis points (0.125%) for the fourth Extension Term and by an additional 12.5 basis points (0.125%) for the fifth Extension Term.

ARTICLE IV.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 4.1. Borrower Representations. Each Individual Borrower and Operating Lessee represent and warrant as of the Closing Date that:

4.1.1. Organization. Each of Borrower, Principal and Operating Lessee has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing with requisite power and authority to own or lease the applicable Individual Property and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its businesses and operations. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee possesses all rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise, necessary to entitle it to own or lease the applicable Individual Property and to transact the businesses in which it is now engaged, except to the extent the failure to possess such rights, licenses and permits would not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Individual Property. Except as otherwise set forth in subsection (i) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity”, the sole business of Borrower and Operating Lessee is the ownership, leasing, management and operation of the related Properties. The ownership interests in Borrower and Operating Lessee are as set forth on the organizational chart attached hereto as Schedule 4.1.1.

4.1.2. Proceedings. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and Operating Lessee, as applicable, and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower and Operating Lessee, as applicable, enforceable against Borrower and Operating Lessee, as applicable, in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

4.1.3. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by Borrower and Operating Lessee, as applicable, will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Borrower or Operating Lessee pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, partnership agreement, management agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party or by which any of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s property or assets are subject (unless consents from all applicable parties thereto have been obtained), nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or Operating Lessee or any of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s properties or assets, and any consent, approval,

- 83 -

authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or any such Governmental Authority required for the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower or Operating Lessee of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents to which it is a party has been obtained and is in full force and effect.

4.1.4. Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1.4 attached hereto, there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority or other agency or any unpaid indemnification obligations for which a claim has been made now pending or to Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting Borrower, Principal, Operating Lessee or any Individual Property, which actions, suits, proceedings or any unpaid indemnification obligations, if determined against Borrower, Principal, Operating Lessee or any Individual Property, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise) or business of Borrower, Principal and Operating Lessee, taken as a whole, or the condition or ownership of any Individual Property.

4.1.5. Agreements. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any restriction which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect Borrower and Operating Lessee, taken as a whole, or any Individual Property, or, taken as a whole, Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s business, properties or assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee is in default in any material respect in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which Borrower, Operating Lessee or any of the Properties is bound, except to the extent such default would not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect Borrower and Operating Lessee, taken as a whole, or any Individual Property. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has any material financial obligation under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which Borrower or Operating Lessee is a party or by which Borrower, Operating Lessee or the Properties are otherwise bound, other than (a) obligations incurred in the ordinary course of the operation of the Properties as permitted pursuant to clause (xxiii) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” set forth in Section 1.1 hereof and (b) Permitted Indebtedness or obligations under the Loan Documents. Other than with respect to the Ground Leases, the Property Documents, the Operating Leases, the Management Agreements, the Franchise Agreements, the Franchise Guaranties and any documents disclosed in the Title Insurance Policies, all agreements or other instruments to which Borrower and/or Operating Lessee is a party or otherwise relating to the Individual Properties are (x) terminable upon no more than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice without penalty or fee or (y) with respect to such agreement or instrument, require Borrower and/or Operating Lessee, as applicable, to make payments during each calendar year during the term of such agreement or instrument in an aggregate yearly amount with respect to any Individual Property that is less than or equal to $250,000.

- 84 -

4.1.6. Title. Borrower has good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the real property (or a leasehold estate as it relates to the Ground Leased Properties) comprising part of each Individual Property and good title to the balance of such Individual Property, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. Operating Lessee has good, marketable and insurable title to the leasehold estate created by the Operating Lease, free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except the Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. The Permitted Encumbrances in the aggregate do not materially and adversely affect the value, operation or use of any applicable Individual Property (as currently used) or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan. Each Mortgage, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority lien on Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s interests in the applicable Individual Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and the Liens created by the Loan Documents and (b) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases) to the extent a security interest may be perfected therein by the recording of the Mortgage or the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code, all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.1.6 or in the Title Insurance Policies, to Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s knowledge, there are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Properties which are a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents and as to which Lender has not otherwise received affirmative insurance in the applicable Title Insurance Policy (in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in all respects).

4.1.7. Solvency. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has entered into this transaction or executed the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents with the actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any creditor and each of Borrower and Operating Lessee has received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for its obligations under such Loan Documents. After giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee intends to, or believes that it will, incur debt and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such debt and liabilities as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Borrower or Operating Lessee and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower or Operating Lessee). No petition in bankruptcy has been filed against Borrower, Principal, Operating Lessee or any of their respective constituent Persons in the last seven (7) years,

-85-

and none of Borrower, Principal, Operating Lessee or any constituent Person in the last seven (7) years has ever made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or taken advantage of any insolvency act for the benefit of debtors. None of Borrower, Operating Lessee or any of their respective constituent Persons are contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of all or a major portion of Borrower’s, Principal’s or Operating Lessee’s assets or property, and neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has any knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such petition against it or such constituent Persons.

4.1.8. Full and Accurate Disclosure. No statement of fact made by Borrower or Operating Lessee in this Agreement or in any of the other 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 material fact presently known to Borrower or Operating Lessee which has not been disclosed to Lender which adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower or Operating Lessee can reasonably foresee, would be reasonably likely to materially and adversely affect, any Individual Property or the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower and/or Operating Lessee.

4.1.9. No Plan Assets. As of the date of this Agreement, none of Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor is an “employee benefit plan,” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, whether or not subject to Title I of ERISA, and none of the respective assets of Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor constitute “plan assets” of any benefit plan investor within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA (the “Plan Asset Regulations”). Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate to have a material adverse effect on Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Property, none of Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor or any ERISA Affiliate is obligated to contribute to any employee benefit plan (as so defined) subject to Title IV of ERISA. Assuming compliance by the Lender with paragraph (d) of Section 5.2.9 of this Agreement, transactions contemplated hereunder by or with Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor are not subject to any state or other statute or regulation applicable to Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor with respect to governmental plans within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA which are substantially similar to the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code currently in effect and which prohibit the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Loan Documents.

4.1.10. Compliance. Except as set forth on the zoning reports for each Individual Property delivered to Lender on or before the Closing Date, Borrower, Operating Lessee and the Properties and the use thereof comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, building and zoning ordinances and codes, except to the extent such failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Individual Property. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee is in default or violation of any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any Governmental Authority. There has not been committed by Borrower or Operating Lessee or to the best of Borrower’s or Operating

- 86 -

Lessee’s knowledge, any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Properties any act or omission affording the federal government or any other Governmental Authority the right of forfeiture as against any Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents.

4.1.11. Financial Information. All financial data, including, without limitation, the statements of cash flow and income and operating expense, that have been delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan (i) are true, complete and correct in all material respects (or to the extent that any such financial data was incorrect in any material respect when delivered, the same have been corrected by financial data subsequently delivered to Lender prior to the Closing Date in writing and containing an express reference to any and all such concerns), (ii) accurately represent the financial condition of Borrower, Operating Lessee and the Properties, as applicable, as of the date of such reports, and (iii) to the extent prepared or audited by an independent certified public accounting firm, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP throughout the periods covered, except as disclosed therein. The foregoing representation shall not apply to any such financial data that constitutes projections, provided that each of Borrower and Operating Lessee represents and warrants that such projections were made in good faith and that neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has any reason to believe that such projections are materially inaccurate. Except for Permitted Encumbrances, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has any contingent liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments that are known to Borrower or Operating Lessee and are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on any Individual Property or the current operation thereof as a hotel, except as referred to or reflected in said financial statements. Since the date of such financial statements, there has been no materially adverse change in the financial condition, operations or business of Borrower or Operating Lessee from that set forth in said financial statements.

4.1.12. Condemnation. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1.12, no Condemnation or other proceeding has been commenced or, to the best of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, is threatened or, to Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any Individual Property or for the relocation of roadways providing access to any Individual Property, other than to the extent the same would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Individual Property affected thereby.

4.1.13. Federal Reserve Regulations. 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 other purpose which would be inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other Regulations of such Board of Governors, or for any purposes prohibited by Legal Requirements or by the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

- 87 -

4.1.14. Utilities and Public Access. Except as set forth in the Title Insurance Policies or the Surveys or except to the extent that there is no material adverse effect on any Individual Property, (i) each Individual Property has rights of access to public ways and is served by water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain facilities adequate to service such Individual Property for its respective intended uses; (ii) all public utilities necessary or convenient to the full use and enjoyment of each Individual Property are located either in the public right of way abutting such Individual Property (which are connected so as to serve such Individual Property without passing over other property) or in recorded easements serving such Individual Property and such easements are set forth in and insured by the Title Insurance Policies; and (iii) all roads necessary for the use of each Individual Property for their current respective purposes have been completed and dedicated to public use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities.

4.1.15. Not a Foreign Person. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee (or if any of Borrower or Operating Lessee is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such entity’s beneficial owner) is a “foreign person” within the meaning of § 1445(f)(3) of the Code.

4.1.16. Separate Lots. Except as set forth in the Title Insurance Policies or on Schedule 4.1.16, each Individual Property is comprised of one (1) or more parcels which constitute a separate tax lot or lots and does not constitute a portion of any other tax lot not a part of such Individual Property.

4.1.17. Assessments. Except as set forth in the Title Insurance Policies or on Schedule 4.1.17, to Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, there are no pending or, to Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, proposed special or other assessments for public improvements or otherwise affecting any Individual Property, nor are there any contemplated improvements to any Individual Property that may result in such special or other assessments, except to the extent such assessment would not have a material adverse effect on the Individual Property.

4.1.18. Enforceability. The Loan Documents are enforceable by Lender (or any subsequent holder thereof) in accordance with their respective terms, subject to principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally applicable to creditors’ rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations. The Loan Documents are not subject to any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense by Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor, including the defense of usury, nor would the operation of any of the terms of the Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Loan Documents unenforceable (subject to principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and the enforcement of debtors’ obligations), and none of Borrower, Operating Lessee or Guarantor has asserted any right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense with respect thereto.

4.1.19. No Prior Assignment. There are no prior assignments of the Leases or any portion of the Rents due and payable or to become due and payable which are presently outstanding except in accordance with the Loan Documents.

- 88 -

4.1.20. Insurance. Borrower has obtained and has delivered to Lender a certificate of insurance for all Policies (or certified copies of any Policy, to the extent Lender shall have requested the same) reflecting the insurance coverages, amounts and other requirements set forth in this Agreement. No claims have been made or are currently pending (except as set forth on Schedule 4.1.20), outstanding or otherwise remain unsatisfied under any such Policy and would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect with respect to any Individual Property, Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents and/or Lender’s security interest in such Individual Property, and none of Borrower, Operating Lessee or, to Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s knowledge, any other Person, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of any such Policy.

4.1.21. Use of Property. Each Individual Property is used exclusively for hotel purposes and other appurtenant and related uses

4.1.22. Certificate of Occupancy; Licenses. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1.22 or the zoning reports delivered to Lender in connection with the closing of the Loan, all certifications, permits, licenses and approvals, including without limitation, certificates of completion and occupancy permits and any applicable liquor license required for the legal use, occupancy and operation of each Individual Property as a hotel (collectively, the “Licenses”), have been obtained and are in full force and effect, except for where the failure to obtain such licenses or for such licenses to not be in full force and effect does not have a material adverse effect on Borrower and Operating Lessee, taken as a whole, or any Individual Property. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall (or shall cause Manager or an Affiliate of Manager to) keep and maintain all Licenses necessary for the operation of each Individual Property as a hotel to the extent the failure to have such licenses would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect with respect to the Individual Property to which it relates. The use being made of each Individual Property is in conformity in all material respects with the certificate of occupancy, if any, issued for such Individual Property.

4.1.23. Flood Zone. Except as set forth in the Surveys or the flood determinations obtained by Lender or Schedule 4.1.23 attached hereto, none of the Improvements on any Individual Property are located in an area as identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and, if so located, the flood insurance required pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(i) is in full force and effect with respect to each such Individual Property.

4.1.24. Physical Condition. Except if the same do not, in the aggregate in respect of the Individual Property affected thereby, have a material adverse effect on such Individual Property, and except as disclosed in the property condition reports delivered to Lender in connection with the making of the Loan, to Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s knowledge, (i) each Individual Property, including, without limitation, all buildings, improvements, parking facilities, sidewalks, storm drainage systems, roofs, plumbing systems, HVAC systems, fire protection systems, electrical systems, equipment, elevators, exterior sidings and doors, landscaping, irrigation systems and all structural components, are in good condition, order and repair in all material respects; and (ii) there

- 89 -

exists no structural or other material defects or damages in any Individual Property, whether latent or otherwise, and neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee has received notice from any insurance company or bonding company of any defects or inadequacies in any Individual Property, or any part thereof, which have not been remedied prior to the Closing Date and would adversely affect the insurability of the same or cause the imposition of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or of any termination or threatened termination of any policy of insurance or bond.

4.1.25. Boundaries.

COVENANTS

Section 5.1. Affirmative Covenants. From the date hereof and until payment and performance in full of all obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents or the earlier release or assignment of the Liens of the Mortgages encumbering the Properties (and all related obligations) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each of Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby covenants and agrees with Lender to comply with the following covenants, and in connection therewith:

5.1.1. Existence; Compliance with Legal Requirements. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights, licenses, permits and franchises and comply in all material respects with all Legal Requirements applicable to Borrower, Operating Lessee and the Properties, including, without limitation, building and zoning codes and certificates of occupancy and the procurement of all necessary and required hospitality, liquor or innkeeper’s licenses. There shall never be committed by Borrower and Operating Lessee, and Borrower and Operating Lessee shall not permit any other Person in occupancy of or involved with the operation or use of the Properties to commit any act or omission affording the federal government or any state or local government the right of forfeiture against any Individual Property or any part thereof or any monies paid in performance of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s obligations under any of the Loan Documents. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby covenants and agrees not to commit, permit or suffer to exist any act or omission affording such right of forfeiture. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade names and preserve all the remainder of its property used or useful in the conduct of its business and shall keep the Properties in good working order and repair, and from time to time make, or cause to be made, all reasonably necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereto, all as more fully provided in the Loan Documents. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall keep the Properties insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers, to such extent and against such risks, and maintain liability and such other insurance, as is more fully provided in this Agreement. After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower or Operating Lessee, at Borrower’s own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity of any Legal Requirement, the applicability of any Legal Requirement to Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Individual Property or any alleged violation of any Legal Requirement, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured; (ii) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any instrument to which Borrower or Operating Lessee is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder and such proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable statutes, laws and ordinances; (iii) no Individual Property nor any part

-100-

thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (iv) Borrower and/or Operating Lessee, as applicable, shall promptly upon final determination thereof comply with any such Legal Requirement determined to be valid or applicable or cure any violation of any Legal Requirement; (v) such proceeding shall suspend the enforcement of the contested Legal Requirement against Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Individual Property; and (vi) in the event the amount reasonably determined to be necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirements exceeds $2,000,000, Borrower shall furnish such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure compliance with such Legal Requirement, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith (except with respect to Brand Managed Properties, if Borrower or Operating Lessee shall have provided Lender with evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender that the applicable Brand Manager has reserved sufficient amounts therefor and shall be required to apply such amounts to cause such compliance in accordance with the applicable Management Agreements). Lender may apply any such security, as necessary to cause compliance with such Legal Requirement at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or violation of such Legal Requirement is finally established or any Individual Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost.

5.1.2. Taxes and Other Charges.

Lender may pay over any such cash deposit or part thereof held by Lender to the claimant entitled thereto at any time when, in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such claimant is established or any Individual Property (or part thereof or interest therein) shall be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost or there shall be any danger of the Lien of any Mortgage being primed by any related Lien; and (vii) Borrower shall deliver written notice of such contest to Lender.

In addition, such certificate shall also be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate stating that the representations and warranties of Borrower set forth in subsection (xxiii) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” are true and correct as of the date of such certificate.

(d) Lender hereby acknowledges receipt of the Annual Budget for the remainder of the Fiscal Year ending on December 31, 2017 and Borrower hereby represents and warrants that a true, correct and complete copy of such Annual Budget is attached hereto as Schedule 5.1.11(d). Borrower shall submit to Lender an Annual Budget not later than thirty (30) days prior to the commencement of each Fiscal Year (which, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence shall be for informational purposes only). If an Event of Default is continuing or a Debt Yield Trigger Period is continuing the Annual Budget currently in place shall be deemed approved; provided, that the next Annual Budget shall be subject to Lender’s and, to the extent one or more Mezzanine Loans are outstanding, the most junior New Mezzanine Lender’s (which is not an affiliate of any Loan Party) reasonable written approval so long as an Event of Default is continuing or a Debt Yield Trigger Period is still in effect at such time, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (each such Annual Budget, an “Approved Annual Budget”); provided, however, (i) Lender shall not withhold its consent with respect to expenditures necessary to comply with life, health or safety matters and (ii) with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, (x) Lender shall not withhold its consent to any item contained in the Annual Budget for which Borrower or Operating Lessee shall not have the right to consent or approve pursuant to the applicable Management Agreement and (y) Lender shall respond to any request for consent subject to the standards for consent set forth in the applicable Management Agreement, provided that any request for consent or approval shall either be (A) simultaneously sent to Lender by the Brand Manager or (B) sent to Lender by Borrower or Operating Lessee within two (2) Business Days of Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s receipt of such request from the applicable Brand Manager. So long as neither a Debt Yield Trigger Period exists nor an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Annual Budget, and any amendments or modifications thereto shall be deemed

-106-

an Approved Annual Budget and Lender shall have no approval right with respect thereto. In the event that Borrower is required to submit an Annual Budget for approval pursuant to this Section 5.1.11(d), provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Annual Budget shall be deemed approved by Lender if the Deemed Approval Requirements have been satisfied with respect to such Annual Budget. In the event that Lender timely disapproves a proposed Annual Budget in accordance with the foregoing, Borrower shall promptly revise such Annual Budget and resubmit the same to Lender and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such resubmitted Annual Budget shall be deemed approved by Lender if the Deemed Approval Requirements have been satisfied with respect to such resubmitted Annual Budget. Borrower shall promptly revise each proposed Annual Budget and resubmit the same to Lender in accordance with the foregoing until Lender approves the proposed Annual Budget or the Deemed Approval Requirements are satisfied. Until such time that Lender approves (or is deemed to approve) a proposed Annual Budget, the most recently Approved Annual Budget shall apply; provided that, each line item of such Approved Annual Budget shall be increased by the amount of the increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for the immediately preceding calendar year (other than the line items in respect of Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Ground Rents, union wages, if any, utilities expenses and Other Charges, which line items shall be adjusted to reflect actual increases in such expenses).

(e) Reserved.

(f) During the continuance of a Cash Trap Period, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall approve (to the extent Borrower or Operating Lessee is permitted to approve or reject such operating budget pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement) any operating budget pursuant to any Management Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Lender shall cooperate with Borrower and/or Operating Lessee to follow the procedures for budget approval set forth in the Management Agreement to the extent Borrower notifies Lender thereof.

Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that Lender may disclose information regarding the Properties, Operating Lessee and Borrower that is provided to Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1.11(g) in connection with the Securitization to such parties requesting such information in connection with such Securitization.

Borrower shall reimburse Lender for any losses, costs, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) incurred by Lender if an interest in any Individual Property, other than as permitted hereunder, is claimed by another Person.

5.1.14. Costs of Enforcement. In the event (a) that any Mortgage encumbering any Individual Property is foreclosed in whole or in part or that any such Mortgage is put into the hands of an attorney for collection, suit, action or foreclosure, (b) of the foreclosure of any mortgage encumbering such Individual Property prior to or subsequent to any Mortgage encumbering any Individual Property in which proceeding Lender is made a party, or (c) of the bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation or other similar proceeding in respect of Borrower, Operating Lessee or any of their respective constituent Persons or an assignment by Borrower, Operating Lessee or any of their respective constituent Persons for the benefit of its creditors, Borrower, Operating Lessee and their respective successors or assigns, shall be chargeable with and agrees to pay all out-of-pocket costs of collection and defense, including reasonable third party attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by Lender, Operating Lessee or Borrower in connection therewith, but excluding regular servicing fees and in connection with any appellate proceeding or post judgment action involved therein, together with all required service or use taxes.

-122-

(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall exercise any rights, make any decisions, grant any approvals or otherwise take any action under the Management Agreement or the Franchise Agreement without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent may be granted, conditioned or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion.

5.2.2. Liens. Neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any portion of any Individual Property or permit any such action to be taken, except for (a) Permitted Encumbrances; (b) Liens created by or permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents; and (c) easements and other similar encumbrances entered into by Borrower or Operating Lessee in the ordinary course of business for use, maintenance, access, parking, water and sewer lines, telephones and telegraph lines, electric lines or other utilities or for other similar purposes, provided that no such easement or other similar encumbrance shall materially impair the utility and operation of the Property or materially and adversely affect the value of the Property or Borrower’s or Operating Lessee’s condition (financial or otherwise) or business. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall not incur any PACE Debt without the prior written consent of Lender in its sole discretion.

5.2.8. Reserved.

5.2.9. ERISA.

(a) Assuming compliance by the Lender with paragraph (d) of this Section 5.2.9, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall engage in any transactions contemplated under this Agreement which would cause any obligation, or action taken or to be taken, hereunder (or the exercise by Lender of any of its rights under the Note, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406(a) of ERISA or Section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(C) of the Code.

(b) Intentionally omitted.

(c) Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee covenants and agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Lender in writing if, in the reasonable judgment of the Borrower and/or Operating Lessee, which may be based on consultation with counsel, the assets of the Borrower and/or Operating Lessee constitute plan assets of any “benefit plan investor” within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or any plan subject to any Applicable Similar Law.

(d) Lender represents and warrants that, throughout the term of the Loan, no portion of the assets used by any Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitutes assets of a (i) “benefit plan investor” within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations unless the applicable Lender is relying on an available prohibited transaction exemption, all of the conditions of which are and continue to be satisfied or (ii) governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) which is subject to any provision which is substantially similar to the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of

-124-

ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Applicable Similar Law”), unless the acquisition and holding of the Loan or any interest therein will not give rise to a violation of any such Applicable Similar Law. Lender covenants and agrees that it will notify the Borrower in the event that it is aware that it is in breach of any aspect of this representation and covenant or is aware that with the passing of time, giving of notice or expiry of any applicable grace period it will breach any aspect of this representation and covenant.

5.2.10. Transfers. (a) Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee acknowledges that Lender has examined and relied on the experience of Borrower, Operating Lessee and their respective stockholders, general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower or Operating Lessee is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Properties in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on Borrower’s and Operating Lessee’s ownership of the Properties as a means of maintaining the value of the Properties as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee acknowledges that Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Properties so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Other Obligations, Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Properties.

(b) Without the prior written consent of Lender and except to the extent otherwise set forth in this Section 5.2.10 or the release of an Individual Property in accordance with this Agreement, neither Borrower nor Operating Lessee shall or shall permit any Restricted Party to do any of the following (collectively, a “Transfer”): (i) sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumber, pledge, assign, grant options with respect to, or otherwise transfer or dispose of (directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, and whether or not for consideration or of record) the Properties or any part thereof or any legal or beneficial interest therein, (ii) Borrower or Operating Lessee entering into, or the Property being subject to, any PACE Debt or (iii) permit a Sale or Pledge of an interest in any Restricted Party, other than, in each case, (A) pursuant to Leases of space in the Improvements to Tenants in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.1.21, and (B) Permitted Transfers and Permitted Indebtedness.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2.10, the following Transfers shall not require the consent of Lender:

(i) The Sale or Pledge, in one or a series of transactions, of the direct or indirect equity interests in Borrower or Operating Lessee or direct or indirect interests in any Restricted Party (excluding the direct interests in Borrower, Operating Lessee and Mezzanine Borrowers (if any)); provided, that, (A) after giving effect to such Sale or Pledge (and in the case of a Sale or Pledge that is a pledge for security purposes, any subsequent foreclosure thereon), BREP or a Public Vehicle or, following a Permitted Assumption, the applicable Qualified Transferee (x) shall own not less than fifty-one percent (51%) of the economic and direct or indirect legal and beneficial interests in Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor, Principal and Mezzanine Borrowers (if any) (on an unencumbered and look-through basis and without regard to the Preferred Shares) and (y) Control Borrower, Operating Lessee, Guarantor, Principal and Mezzanine Borrowers (if any), (B) upon the written request of Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender notice of each sale described in this Section 5.2.10(d)(i) not less than ten (10) days following such request, (C) no Sale or Pledge of any direct interest in any Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or Mezzanine Borrowers (if any) shall be permitted, (D) no Individual Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or Mezzanine Borrowers (if any) shall fail to be a Special Purpose Entity by reason of such Sale or Pledge, (E) for so long as the Loan or any Mezzanine Loan shall remain outstanding (I) no pledge of any direct interests in any Restricted Pledge Party shall be permitted (other than pledges securing the Loan or Mezzanine Loans (if any)) and except that a pledge of the direct ownership interests in the most upper-tier Restricted Pledge Party shall be permitted if such pledge directly or indirectly secures indebtedness that is also directly or indirectly secured by substantial assets other than the Properties and (II) no Restricted Pledge Party shall issue preferred equity that has the characteristics of mezzanine debt (such as a fixed maturity date, pledged ownership interests as security, regular payments of interest, a fixed rate of return and rights of the equity holder to demand repayment of its investment) and (F) with respect to any transferee that, as a result of such transfer, will hold a twenty percent (20%) or greater direct or indirect interest in, or control, Borrower (and such transferee owned less than twenty percent (20%) of the direct or indirect interest in Borrower or did not control Borrower on the Closing Date), Lender shall receive satisfactory “know your customer” compliance screening searches consisting of a search and evaluation of (x) OFAC sanctions and other government-required sanctions lists, (y) negative news screening of such holders, if any, associated with material derogatory information

-126-

that could reasonably result in anti-money laundering risk to Lender related to terrorist or other financial crimes and (z) such statutes and other information reasonably required by Lender to confirm that Borrower and such transferee is not an Embargoed Person (Lender agrees to use diligent and commercially reasonable efforts to complete such “know your customer” diligence in accordance with this clause (F) within fifteen (15) Business Days after Lender receives the requested information necessary to conduct such diligence). If after giving effect to any such Sale, more than forty-nine percent (49%) in the aggregate of direct or indirect interests in a Restricted Party (excluding the Preferred Shares) are owned by any Person and its Affiliates that owned less than forty-nine percent (49%) direct or indirect interest in such Restricted Party (excluding the Preferred Shares) as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Additional Insolvency Opinion reasonably acceptable to Lender and the Approved Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (x) no notice to, or consent of, Lender shall be required in connection with any Sale or Pledge of direct or indirect interests in any Excluded Entity or by and among any Excluded Entity and (y) no Restricted Pledge Party (other than Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or Mezzanine Borrowers (if any)) shall be restricted from any Sale or Pledge of its direct or indirect assets; provided such assets are not encumbered (or required to be encumbered) by the Loan or Mezzanine Loans. In connection with a Sale or Pledge resulting in Guarantor no longer owning direct or indirect interests in Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or the Properties, Guarantor shall be released as a guarantor under the Guaranty for any acts occurring after such Sale or Pledge; provided that Borrower delivers a Substitute Guaranty from a Qualified Transferee that Controls Borrower or is under common Control with Borrower, which Substitute Guaranty shall include all liability for all such acts for which Guarantor was so released.

(ii) A Public Sale, provided, that (A) if after giving effect to any such Public Sale, more than forty-nine percent (49%) in the aggregate of the direct or indirect interests in any Restricted Party are owned by any Person and its Affiliates that owned less than forty-nine percent (49%) of the direct or indirect interest in such Restricted Party as of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Additional Insolvency Opinion reasonably acceptable to Lender and, to the extent a Securitization has occurred, the Approved Rating Agencies; (B) to the extent a Securitization has occurred and such Public Sale results in BREP no longer Controlling Borrower, Lender shall have received a Rating Agency Confirmation from the Approved Rating Agencies with respect to any such Public Sale, (C) no Individual Borrower, Operating Lessee or Principal shall fail to be a Special Purpose Entity by reason of such sale, (D) no Transfer of any direct interest in any Borrower, Operating Lessee or Principal, or for so long as any Mezzanine Loan remains outstanding, in the related Mezzanine Borrower shall be permitted, (E) no Restricted Pledge Party shall issue preferred equity that has the characteristics of mezzanine debt (such as a fixed maturity date, pledged ownership interests as security, regular payments of interest, a fixed rate of return and rights of the equity holder to demand repayment of its investment) and (F) with respect to any transferee that, as a result of such transfer, will hold a twenty

-127-

percent (20%) or greater direct or indirect interest in, or control, Borrower (and such transferee owned less than twenty percent (20%) of the direct or indirect interest in Borrower or did not control Borrower on the Closing Date), Lender shall receive satisfactory “know your customer” compliance screening searches consisting of a search and evaluation of (x) OFAC sanctions and other government-required sanctions lists, (y) negative news screening of such holders, if any, associated with material derogatory information that could reasonably result in anti-money laundering risk to Lender related to terrorist or other financial crimes and (z) such statutes and other information reasonably required by Lender to confirm that Borrower and such transferee is not an Embargoed Person (Lender agrees to use diligent and commercially reasonable efforts to complete such “know your customer” diligence in accordance with this clause (F) within fifteen (15) Business Days after Lender receives the requested information necessary to conduct such diligence). Upon completion of any such Public Sale subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.2.10(d)(ii), Guarantor shall be released as a guarantor under the Guaranty for any acts occurring from and after such Public Sale; provided that Borrower delivers to Lender (x) a Substitute Guaranty for obligations and liabilities under the Guaranty occurring from and after such Public Sale from (1) a Replacement Guarantor or (2) a Public Vehicle that Controls Borrower or is under common Control with Borrower and (y) the organizational documents of such replacement guarantor, resolutions authorizing such replacement guarantor to enter into either the assumption of the Guaranty or the Substitute Guaranty and an enforceability and execution opinion covering the enforceability of such assumption of the Guaranty or the Substitute Guaranty against such replacement guarantor in the same form and substance as the enforceability opinion delivered to Lender on the Closing Date (or in such other form as reasonably approved by Lender); provided, however, if BREP is the Replacement Guarantor, Borrower shall not be required to deliver to Lender any of the organizational documents set forth above. Following any Transfer in accordance with this Section 5.2.10(d)(ii), the Public Vehicle shall be deemed to be an Excluded Entity. For purposes of clarity, the provisions of Section 5.2.3 and this Section 5.2.10 shall not restrict the Public Vehicle (or any direct or indirect owner of the Public Vehicle, but excluding any Borrower, Operating Lessee or any Mezzanine Borrower) from effectuating a restructuring and such Public Vehicle (or any direct or indirect owner of the Public Vehicle, but excluding any Borrower, Operating Lessee, or any Mezzanine Borrower) shall be permitted to effectuate a restructuring, including amending or modifying its organizational documents or commercial arrangements including any amendments or modifications reasonably determined by such Public Vehicle to be required to satisfy stock exchange, quotation system listing or trading requirements.

(iii) A Pledge made by Mezzanine Borrowers to secure the Mezzanine Loans in accordance with the Mezzanine Loan Documents or any Foreclosure.

Borrower’s other rights expressly permitted under this Section 5.2.10, (X) a Transfer of all of the Properties or one hundred percent (100%) of the legal or beneficial interests therein or in Borrower, Operating Lessee or any other Loan Party to a new borrower (the “Transferee Borrower”) or (Y) a Transfer of more than forty-nine percent (49%) of the direct or indirect legal and beneficial interests in the junior most Mezzanine Borrower or, if no Mezzanine Loan is then outstanding, Borrower, and in each instance provided that the same does not otherwise constitute a Permitted Transfer or is not otherwise permitted by Section 5.2.10(d) (a “Majority Equity Transfer”), shall each be permitted without Lender’s consent (each, a “Permitted Assumption”), provided that Lender receives thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such Permitted Assumption and no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time such Permitted Assumption is consummated, and further provided that in connection with any Permitted Assumption pursuant to this Section 5.2.10(e) the following additional requirements are satisfied:

(i) Borrower shall pay Lender a transfer fee equal to Lender’s Allocation of $250,000.00 at the time such Permitted Assumption is consummated;

(ii) Borrower shall pay any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such Permitted Assumption (including, without limitation, Lender’s reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and all recording fees, title insurance premiums and mortgage and intangible taxes and the fees and expenses of the Approved Rating Agencies pursuant to clause (vi) below);

(v) Transferee Borrower and any of Transferee Borrower’s Principals (“Related Entities”) must be able to satisfy all the representations and covenants set forth in Sections 4.1.35, 5.1.25 and 5.2.9 of this Agreement, and Transferee Borrower and the Related Entities shall deliver (A) all organizational documentation reasonably requested by Lender, which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Lender and, following a rated Securitization, satisfactory to the Approved Rating Agencies and (B) all certificates and agreements necessary to evidence the Permitted Assumption and an Additional Insolvency Opinion and a due authority, execution and enforceability opinion reasonably required by Lender;

-129-

(vi) If required by Lender following or in connection with a rated Securitization, Transferee Borrower shall be approved by the Approved Rating Agencies, which approval, if required by Lender, shall take the form of a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Permitted Assumption; provided that a written waiver or acknowledgment from the Approved Rating Agencies indicating its decision not to review the matter for which the Rating Agency Confirmation is sought shall be deemed to satisfy the requirement for the Rating Agency Confirmation;

(vii) Borrower or Transferee Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall deliver to Lender an Additional Insolvency Opinion reflecting such Transfer reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Lender;

(viii) Intentionally omitted;

(ix) If the Permitted Assumption is accomplished by the conveyance of the Properties rather than by assignment of all of Guarantor’s or a Restricted Party’s interests in Borrower, Borrower shall deliver, at its sole cost and expense, an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policies, as modified by the assumption agreement, confirming the lien of the Mortgages as a valid first lien on the Properties and naming the Transferee Borrower as owner of the Properties, which endorsement shall insure that, as of the date of the recording of the assumption agreement, the Properties shall not be subject to any additional exceptions or liens other than those contained in the relevant Title Insurance Policy issued on the date hereof and any other Permitted Encumbrances;

Immediately upon the consummation of a Permitted Assumption pursuant to this Section 5.2.10(e), then (X) each Borrower and (Y) provided that either (1) a Qualified Transferee or (2) one or more substitute guarantors reasonably acceptable to Lender as of the date of such the Public Sale or such Permitted Assumption, as applicable (any such person that qualified with the requirements of subclauses (1), (2) or (3), each a “Replacement Guarantor”) shall have executed and delivered a replacement guaranty substantially in the form of the Guaranty or otherwise in a form reasonably satisfactory to Lender (a “Substitute Guaranty”) or have assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of Guarantor under the Guaranty arising from and after the date of the Public Sale or Permitted Assumption, as applicable, Guarantor shall be released from all liability under this Agreement, the Note, the Mortgage, the Guaranty and the other Loan Documents accruing from and after the date of such Substitute Guaranty.

If a Substitute Guaranty is delivered in accordance with clause (x) of the preceding sentence, within ten (10) Business Days of the failure of Guarantor to comply, then the failure by Guarantor to comply with the covenants set forth in Article V of the Guaranty shall not be a default hereunder or

-131-

(j) At Borrower’s option, without Lender’s consent, Borrower may cause an Individual Property to be transferred from Borrower to a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of a Borrower or a senior Mezzanine Borrower (the “New TRS Borrower”) provided that the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) No Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(2) The New TRS Borrower shall have a limited liability company agreement or limited partnership agreement substantially the same as the limited liability company agreement or limited partnership agreement of the Borrower (or in such other form reasonably approved by Lender) and Borrower and New TRS Borrower shall otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 4.1.30 and Section 5.1.28;

-132-

(3) The New TRS Borrower shall execute and deliver such documents as are reasonably requested by Lender to evidence that the New TRS Borrower shall be bound by the Loan Documents and the Debt as a Borrower thereunder and shall have assumed the applicable Franchise Agreement and Management Agreement with respect to such Individual Property;

(4) The New TRS Borrower shall deliver to Lender an Additional Insolvency Opinion and new enforceability and corporate opinions as Lender shall reasonably require from Borrower’s counsel with respect to the New TRS Borrower; and

Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings (and, in the case of such proceedings that (i) relate to any improved portion of such Individual Property, (ii) relate to any portion of such Individual Property that, if taken, would cause such Individual Property not to comply with Legal Requirement, and/or (iii) relate to any material portion of an Individual Property, shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings).

Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If any Individual Property or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, (a) if Restoration of such Individual Property would be deemed feasible by a prudent Lender acting

-142-

reasonably based upon the nature of the Condemnation, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the applicable Individual Property pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 6.4 hereof; provided, that, Borrower shall not be obligated to pursue completion of the Restoration if Lender is obligated to disburse Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof with respect thereto (and Borrower has satisfied all applicable conditions to such disbursement) and Lender fails to disburse such proceeds and (b) if Restoration of such Individual Property is not considered feasible by a prudent Lender acting reasonably based upon the nature of the Condemnation, then Lender shall apply the Net Proceeds of such Condemnation to the principal of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.4.2 hereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if the Loan or any portion thereof is included in a REMIC Trust and, immediately following a release of any portion of the Lien of the Mortgage in connection with a Condemnation of an Individual Property (but taking into account any proposed Restoration on the remaining portion of such Individual Property) (based solely on real property and excluding any personal property or going concern value), the Loan-to-Value Ratio is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%), the principal balance of the Loan must prepaid down by an amount not less than the least of the following amounts: (i) the Condemnation Proceeds, (ii) the fair market value of the released property at the time of the release, or (iii) an amount such that the Loan-to-Value Ratio does not increase after the release, unless Lender receives an opinion of counsel that if such amount is not paid, the Securitization will not fail to maintain its status as a REMIC Trust as a result of the related release of such portion of the Lien of the Mortgage. Any such prepayment shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment and shall be subject to Section 2.4.1 hereof (other than the requirements to provide ten (10) days’ notice to Lender).

Section 6.4. Restoration. The following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of any Individual Property:

(a) If the Net Proceeds shall be less than the Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount and the estimated costs of completing the Restoration shall be less than the Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Lender to Borrower upon receipt or shall be directed by Lender to be disbursed directly to Borrower, provided that Borrower certifies to Lender (A) that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the disbursement and (B) Borrower provides an Officer’s Certificate confirming Borrower will complete the Restoration in compliance with all of the conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i)(C), (F), (G) and (H) hereof and agrees to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall thereafter commence and complete such Restoration with due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

The term “Net Proceeds” for purposes of this Section 6.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(i), (iv), (ix) and (x) as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of Lender’s and Borrower’s reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Insurance Proceeds”): provided, that such costs and expenses of Borrower shall only be reimbursed if Lender is reasonably certain that there will be sufficient Net Proceeds to complete the Restoration (it being understood that to the extent Net Proceeds exceed the Adjusted Release Amount for any applicable Individual Property and such Net Proceeds are not being made available for Restoration, the foregoing proviso shall not apply), or (ii) the net amount of the Award, after deduction of Lender’s and Borrower’s reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting same (“Condemnation Proceeds”), whichever the case may be.

(i) The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each of the following conditions are met:

(A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(B) (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent (30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements on the Individual Property has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Casualty or (2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than twenty-two and one half percent (22.5%) of the land constituting the Individual Property is taken, and such land is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Individual Property, and no portion of the Improvements is located on such land;

(C) Borrower shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same to satisfactory completion, provided, that for purposes of this clause the filing of an application for a building permit for the Restoration shall be deemed to be commencement of the Restoration provided Borrower promptly commences work thereafter and diligently proceeds to the completion of such Restoration;

(D) Lender shall be reasonably satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be incurred with respect to the Individual Property as a result of the occurrence of any such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, (2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(ii) hereof, if applicable, or (3) by other funds of Borrower;

-144-

(E) Lender shall be reasonably satisfied, subject to a force majeure delay, that the Restoration will be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Maturity Date (or with respect to any Extension Term, sixty (60) days prior to the applicable Extended Maturity Date), (2) such time as may be required under all applicable Legal Requirements in order to repair and restore the applicable Individual Property to the condition it was in immediately prior to such Casualty or to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such Condemnation, as applicable, or (3) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section 6.1(a)(ii) hereof;

(F) the Individual Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance in all material respects with and permitted under all applicable Legal Requirements (including as a legal non-conforming use);

(G) intentionally omitted;

(H) such Casualty or Condemnation, as applicable, does not result in the loss of access to the Individual Property or the related Improvements;

(I) the pro forma Debt Yield (Mortgage Only) and Debt Yield (Aggregate) after such Restoration and stabilization of the Individual Property shall be equal to or greater than the applicable thresholds set forth in the definition of the Required Debt Yield;

(J) Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender a signed detailed budget approved in writing by Borrower’s architect or engineer stating the entire cost of completing the Restoration, which budget shall be approved by Lender in the same manner as each Annual Budget is to be approved by Lender during the continuance of a Cash Trap Period as provided in Section 5.1.11(d); and

(K) the Net Proceeds together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender are sufficient in Lender’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration or a Letter of Credit reasonably satisfactory to Lender is delivered to Lender.

(ii) The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest bearing Eligible Account and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Debt and Other Obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that

-145-

they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the applicable Individual Property which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the applicable Title Insurance Policy.

(iii) All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration shall be subject to prior review and acceptance in all respects by Lender and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the “Casualty Consultant”). Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and reasonable approval by Lender and the Casualty Consultant. All actual, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower. At any time that Lender’s approval is required under this clause (iii), provided no Event of Default is continuing, Lender’s approval shall be deemed granted if the Deemed Approval Requirements have been satisfied with respect thereto.

(iv) In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 6.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re occupancy and use of the Individual Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s,

-146-

subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers (except that lien waivers from subcontractors who have performed work in the amount of $50,000 or less shall not be required) and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company issuing the Title Insurance Policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the Title Insurance Policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the related Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If reasonably required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.

(vi) If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall either (A) deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”) with Lender or (B) deliver a Letter of Credit reasonably satisfactory to Lender in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds Deficiency before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 6.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and Other Obligations under the Loan Documents.

(vii) The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds (and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency) deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) (the “Excess Net Proceeds”), and the receipt by Lender of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and no Mezzanine Loan Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If no Event of Default shall be continuing but one or more Mezzanine Loan Defaults shall have occurred and be continuing, the Excess Net Proceeds shall be distributed to the senior Mezzanine Lender with respect to which such Mezzanine Loan Default shall have occurred and be continuing to be applied in accordance with such Mezzanine Loan Documents.

-147-

(c) Lender shall, with reasonable promptness following any Casualty or Condemnation, notify Borrower whether or not Net Proceeds are required to be made available to Borrower for a Restoration pursuant to this Section 6.4 (or, if the same are not required to be made available to Borrower for Restoration pursuant to this Section 6.4, whether Lender will nevertheless make the same available, which election Lender may make in its sole and absolute discretion). All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration in accordance with Section 6.4(a) or Section 6.4(b) or (ii) to be distributed in accordance with Section 6.4(b)(vii) hereof (as applicable, the “Net Proceeds Prepayment”) shall be applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt in accordance with Section 2.4.2 hereof.

(d) Intentionally Omitted.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents (except Section 6.3(b) of this Agreement) with respect to the disbursement of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in respect of the Ground Lease, the express provisions set forth in the Ground Lease shall govern; provided, however, to the extent the compliance by Borrower with the terms and conditions of this Section 6.4 do not create a default under the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease, Borrower shall comply with the terms and provisions of this Section 6.4 and, provided, further, that Borrower shall not grant its consent, approval or waiver with respect to any disbursement of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in respect of the Ground Leased Property (if such disbursement would violate the terms and provisions of this Section 6.4) as may be requested or required in connection with the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease without first obtaining the written consent, approval, or waiver of Lender. Lender shall respond to any request for consent subject to the standards for consent set forth in the Ground Lease, provided that any request for consent or approval shall either be sent (A) by the ground lessor simultaneously to Lender or (B) by Borrower within two (2) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt of such request for consent or approval from the Ground Lessor.

(f) In addition to the foregoing, in connection with any partial Condemnation or any Casualty, if (i) the estimated Net Proceeds shall be equal to or greater than sixty percent (60%) of the Amortized Release Amount in respect of the applicable Individual Property or (ii) provided no Event of Default shall be continuing, any Net Proceeds shall be equal to or greater than the Casualty/Condemnation Threshold and after Borrower shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy each of the other conditions set forth in Section 6.4(b)(i) Borrower shall be unable to satisfy all such conditions and Lender does not disburse the Net Proceeds to Borrower for Restoration, then Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, regardless of the provisions of Section 2.4.1 hereof, to elect not to proceed with a Restoration and to prepay the Adjusted Release Amount of the applicable Individual Property (a “Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment”) utilizing the Net Proceeds (together with other funds of the Borrower if such Net Proceeds are less than the Adjusted Release Amount) and obtain the release of the applicable Individual Property from the Lien of the Mortgage thereon and related Loan Documents, provided that (i) Borrower shall have satisfied the requirements of Section 2.5.2(i) hereof), (ii) Borrower shall consummate the Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment on or before the second Payment Date occurring following date the Net Proceeds shall be available to Borrower for such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment and (iii) Borrower shall pay to Lender, concurrently with making such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment, any other amounts required pursuant to Section 2.4.2 hereof. Notwithstanding anything in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 to the contrary, Borrower shall not have any obligation to commence Restoration of an Individual

-148-

Property if Borrower elects to make a Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment unless Borrower shall subsequently fail to pay to Lender the amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.4.2(b) hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, no Spread Maintenance Payment or other premium or penalty or charge shall be due with respect to a Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment and such Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment shall not count towards the Free Prepayment Amount.

ARTICLE VII.

RESERVE FUNDS

Section 7.1. Required Repairs. Borrower shall perform the repairs at the Properties, as more particularly set forth on Schedule 7.1 hereto (such repairs hereinafter referred to as “Required Repairs”). Borrower shall complete each of the Required Repairs by January 7, 2018 (the “Required Repairs Deadline”). It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if Borrower does not complete the Required Repairs at the Individual Property on or before the Required Repairs Deadline; provided, however, if Borrower shall have been unable to complete a Required Repair by the Required Repair Deadline (or if the Property is a Brand Managed Property and the Manager has not completed such Required Repair and is obligated to complete such Required Repair by the Required Repair Deadline) after using commercially reasonable efforts to do so (or with respect to any Brand Managed Property, causing the applicable Brand Manager to do so) and provided that the failure to complete such Required Repair does not endanger any tenant, patron or other occupant of the Individual Property or the general public and does not materially and adversely affect the value of the Individual Property, the Required Repair Deadline shall be automatically extended solely as to such Required Repair to permit Borrower to complete such Required Repair so long as Borrower is at all times thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeding to complete the same or with respect to any Brand Managed Property, for such extended period of time as the Manager is provided to complete such Required Repair under the Management Agreement so long as Manager shall be completing such Required Repair in accordance with the Management Agreement) (provided that such additional period shall not exceed ninety (90) days in respect of any Required Repair).

Section 7.2. Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. (a) Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date during a Cash Trap Period, (i) one twelfth (1/12) of the Taxes that Lender reasonably estimates will be payable during the next ensuing twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Taxes, at least thirty (30) days prior to their respective due dates, and (ii) one twelfth (1/12) of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said amounts in (i) and (ii) above hereinafter called the “Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund”); provided that, to the extent Taxes and/or Insurance Premiums for any Individual Property are reserved for in a Manager Account maintained by the applicable Brand Manager pursuant to the applicable Management Agreement or are previously paid for by a Brand Manager pursuant to the applicable Management Agreement and Borrower delivers to Lender the invoices or other evidence of payment or that a Brand Manager is holding such funds required under Section 5.1.2 and Section 6.1 hereof, the required deposit to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund hereunder with respect to such Individual Property will be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by such

-149-

amount. The account in which the Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds are held shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Tax and Insurance Reserve Account”. Lender will apply the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower or Operating Lessee pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof and under the Mortgages. In making any payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund, Lender may do so according to any ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such ▇▇▇▇, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. Provided that sufficient amounts are on deposit in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund and Borrower continues to be an Affiliate of BREP or a Pubic Vehicle, Lender (or Servicer) shall within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Borrower’s written request, disburse funds from the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund to Borrower to timely pay all Taxes payable by Borrower, or to reimburse Borrower for Taxes actually paid by Borrower or Operating Lessee so long Borrower’s written request is submitted prior to Lender (or Servicer) having already paid such Taxes. Any such request for disbursement shall include an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the tax payments and jurisdictions in which such payments will be made by such disbursement. Upon the written request of Lender, Borrower shall deliver to Lender receipts for payment or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such Taxes have been paid. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Section 5.1.2 hereof, Lender shall return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund. If at any time Lender reasonably determines that the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund is not or will not be sufficient to pay Taxes and Insurance Premiums by the dates set forth in (i) and (ii) above, Lender shall provide written notice to Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall, commencing with the first Payment Date following Borrower’s receipt of such written notice, increase its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of the Taxes and Insurance Premiums and/or thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. Any amounts remaining in the Tax and Insurance Escrow Fund after the Debt has been paid in full shall be promptly returned (x) in the event that only one Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, to the related Mezzanine Lender to be applied in accordance with the applicable Mezzanine Loan Agreement, (y) in the event that more than one Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, to the most senior Mezzanine Lender to be applied in accordance with the applicable Mezzanine Loan Agreement, or (z) in the event that no Mezzanine Loan is outstanding, to Borrower. In the event an Individual Property is released in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, effective upon the Payment Date immediately following the date of such release, Lender shall reduce the monthly deposit for Taxes by an amount equal to the Taxes attributable to such Individual Property.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent that any of the insurance required to be maintained by Borrower under this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document is effected under a blanket policy reasonably acceptable to Lender (which blanket policy may also insure other real property owned directly or indirectly by Guarantor), Borrower shall not be required to make deposits pursuant to the foregoing with respect to Insurance Premiums.

-150-

(c) Upon the occurrence of a Cash Trap Event Cure, and provided that a Cash Trap Period is not in effect, amounts in the Tax and Insurance Reserve Fund shall be deposited into the Cash Management Account to be disbursed in accordance with the Cash Management Agreement.

Section 7.3. Replacements and Replacement Reserve.

7.3.1. Replacement Reserve Fund. Borrower shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date an amount equal to the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit to fund the cost of Replacements; provided, however, that Replacements shall not include expense items that would otherwise be expensed in the operating statements of the Property pursuant to the Uniform System of Accounts (unless such expense items are unanticipated repair and maintenance expenses in connection with Replacements not contemplated by the Annual Budget) and provided, further, that, for so long as Borrower maintains the Brand Managed Properties in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement, the Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any amounts deposited into the applicable Manager Account for Replacements or Project Improvement Plans for the applicable calendar month as set forth in the Annual Budget and required pursuant to the terms of the applicable Management Agreement if Borrower delivers evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such deposit has been made. Amounts so deposited shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Replacement Reserve Fund” and the account in which such amounts are held shall hereinafter be referred to as Borrower’s “Replacement Reserve Account”.

7.3.2. Disbursements from Replacement Reserve Account. (a) Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to pay Borrower only for the costs of the Replacements, upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 7.3.2. In addition, Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account to pay Borrower for the costs of PIP Work, upon satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 7.3.2; provided that disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account for the costs of PIP Work shall only be permitted up to an amount equal to the positive difference, if any, between (x) the amount deposited into the Replacement Reserve Account (plus any amounts deposited into the applicable Manager Account for Replacements that reduce Replacement Reserve Monthly Deposit on a dollar for dollar basis as provided in Section 7.3.1) during any trailing twelve month period and (y) the Minimum Replacement Reserve Threshold. The “Minimum Replacement Reserve Threshold” is an amount equal to the greater of (i) the amount budgeted in the Approved Annual Budget for repairs and maintenance for the applicable trailing twelve month period and (ii) the Fixed Replacement Reserve Amount. The “Fixed Replacement Reserve Amount” shall initially equal $9,000,000, and be adjusted from time to time (increased and decreased) in accordance with the following: (x) with respect to any release of an Individual Property, immediately after such release, the Fixed Replacement Reserve Amount shall be decreased by a percentage equal to the percentage equal to the percentage of the Release Amount of such released Property is to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan immediately prior to the release and (y) commencing with the first anniversary of the first Payment Date, and annually thereafter, the Fixed Replacement Reserve Amount shall be increased by an amount equal to 2.5% of the then Fixed Replacement Reserve Amount, taking into account all adjustments made through the date thereof.

-151-

(b) Lender shall disburse to Borrower the Replacement Reserve Funds from the Replacement Reserve Account from time to time upon satisfaction by Borrower of each of the following conditions: (i) Borrower shall submit a written request for payment to Lender at least five (5) days prior to the date on which Borrower requests such payment be made and specifies the Replacements to be paid, (ii) on the date such payment is to be made, no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured and (iii) Lender shall have received an Officer’s Certificate: (A) stating that, to Borrower’s knowledge, all Replacements to be funded by the requested disbursement have been performed in good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, in all material respects, (B) identifying each Person that supplied materials or labor in connection with such Replacements to be funded by the requested disbursement, (C) stating that each such Person has been paid or will be paid the amounts then due and payable to such Person in connection with the Replacements with the proceeds of such disbursement, and (D) stating that Borrower has obtained (or caused to be obtained) lien waivers from any contractors or subcontractors with respect to the applicable Replacements for which reimbursement is being sought. Lender shall not be required to make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve Account with respect to the Property unless such requested disbursement is in an amount greater than Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000) (or a lesser amount if the total amount in the Replacement Reserve Account is less than $10,000), in which case only one disbursement of the amount remaining in the account shall be made) and such disbursement shall be made only upon satisfaction of each condition contained in this Section 7.3.2. In no event shall Lender be obligated to disburse funds to Borrower from the Replacement Reserve Account if an Event of Default exists.

7.3.3. Performance of Replacements. (a) Borrower shall make (or shall cause to be made) Replacements when required in order to keep each Individual Property in good condition and repair and to keep the Property or any portion thereof from deteriorating consistent with the requirements of the Franchise Agreement or in the case of the Brand Managed Properties that are not subject to a Franchise Agreement, the applicable Management Agreement. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall complete (or with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, shall cause Manager to complete all Replacements as required pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement) all Replacements in a good and workmanlike manner as soon as practicable following the commencement of making each such Replacement.

(b) During a Cash Trap Period, Lender shall have the right, at its option, to approve all contracts or work orders for amounts in excess of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, such approval shall be limited to the extent that Borrower and/or Operating Lessee shall have the right to approve such contracts in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement) with materialmen, mechanics, suppliers, subcontractors, contractors or other parties providing labor or materials in connection with the Replacements. Upon Lender’s request during a Cash Trap Event, Borrower or Operating Lessee shall assign any contract or subcontract to Lender (provided, that with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, such assignment shall be limited to the extent that Borrower or Operating Lessee shall be permitted to assign such contracts under the applicable Management Agreement).

-152-

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default, in the event Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that any Replacement is not being performed in a workmanlike or timely manner or that any Replacement has not been completed in a workmanlike or timely manner, upon three (3) Business Days written notice to Borrower, Lender shall have the option to withhold disbursement for such unsatisfactory Replacements and to proceed under existing contracts or to contract with third parties to complete such Replacement and to apply the Replacement Reserve Funds toward the labor and materials necessary to complete such Replacement, and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise any and all other remedies available to Lender upon an Event of Default hereunder, provided, that with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, Lender’s rights under this clause (c) shall be subject to the rights of each Brand Manager to the extent that such Brand Manager is permitted to perform such Replacements pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement.

(d) During the continuance of an Event of Default, in order to facilitate Lender’s completion or making of such Replacements pursuant to Section 7.3.3(c) above, Borrower and Operating Lessee grants Lender the right to enter onto any Individual Property and perform any and all work and labor necessary to complete or make such Replacements and/or employ watchmen to protect such Individual Property from damage (subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights of Tenants) (provided, that with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, Lender’s rights shall be subject to the rights of each Brand Manager to the extent that such Brand Manager shall perform such Replacements pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement and Borrower and Operating Lessee shall enforce all their respective rights under the applicable Management Agreement to cause such Replacements to be completed in accordance with the terms thereunder). All sums so expended by Lender, to the extent not from the Replacement Reserve Fund, shall be deemed to have been advanced under the Loan to Borrower and secured by the Mortgages. For this purpose Borrower and Operating Lessee constitute and appoint Lender their true and lawful attorney in fact with full power of substitution to complete or undertake such Replacements in the name of Borrower and/or Operating Lessee. Such power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee empowers said attorney in fact as follows: (i) to use any funds in the Replacement Reserve Account for the purpose of making or completing such Replacements; (ii) to make such additions, changes and corrections to such Replacements as shall be necessary to complete such Replacement; (iii) to employ such contractors, subcontractors, agents, architects and inspectors as shall be reasonably required for such purposes; (iv) to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims which are or may become Liens against any Individual Property, or as may be necessary or desirable for the completion of such Replacements, or for clearance of title; (v) to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower and/or Operating Lessee which may be reasonably required by any of the contract documents; (vi) to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with any Individual Property or the rehabilitation and repair of any Individual Property; and (vii) to do any and every reasonable act which Borrower might do in its own behalf to fulfill the terms of this Agreement.

-153-

(e) Nothing in this Section 7.3.3 shall: (i) make Lender responsible for making or completing any Replacements; (ii) require Lender to expend funds in addition to the Replacement Reserve Fund to make or complete any Replacement; (iii) obligate Lender to proceed with any Replacements; or (iv) obligate Lender to demand from Borrower additional sums to make or complete any Replacement.

(f) If reasonably determined to be necessary and upon reasonable prior notice, Borrower and Operating Lessee shall permit Lender and Lender’s agents and representatives (including, without limitation, Lender’s engineer, architect, or inspector) or third parties making Replacements pursuant to this Section 7.3.3 to enter onto each Individual Property during normal business hours (subject to the provisions of the Ground Lease and the rights of Tenants under their Leases) to inspect the progress of any Replacements and all materials being used in connection therewith, to examine all plans and shop drawings relating to such Replacements which are or may be kept at each Individual Property, and to complete any Replacements made pursuant to this Section 7.3.3 (provided, that with respect to the Brand Managed Properties, Lender’s rights shall be subject to the rights of each Brand Manager to the extent that such Brand Manager shall perform such Replacements pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Management Agreement and Borrower and Operating Lessee shall enforce all their respective rights under the applicable Management Agreement to cause such Replacements or PIP Work to be completed in accordance with the terms thereunder). Borrower and Operating Lessee shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to cooperate with Lender or Lender’s representatives or such other persons described above in connection with inspections described in this Section 7.3.3(f) or the completion of Replacements pursuant to this Section 7.3.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a Debt Yield Trigger Period or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such inspections shall not take place more than once per year and the cost to Borrower or Operating Lessee in connection with each shall not exceed $5,000.

(g) During a Cash Trap Period, in connection with any single Replacement in excess of One Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,500,000.00), Lender may require an inspection of the Individual Property at Borrower’s expense prior to making a monthly disbursement from the Replacement Reserve Account in order to verify completion of the Replacements for which reimbursement is sought (or portion thereof in the case of periodic payments). Lender may require that such inspection be conducted by an appropriate independent qualified professional selected by Lender and reasonably approved by Borrower or Operating Lessee and/or may require a copy of a certificate of completion by an independent qualified professional reasonably acceptable to Lender prior to the disbursement of any amounts from the Replacement Reserve Account. Borrower shall pay the actual, out-of-pocket, reasonable expense of the inspection as required hereunder, whether such inspection is conducted by Lender or by an independent qualified professional.

(h) The Replacements and all materials, equipment, fixtures, or any other item comprising a part of any Replacement shall be constructed, installed or completed, as applicable, free and clear of all mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other liens (except for (i) those Liens existing on the date of this Agreement which have been approved in writing by Lender and (ii) Permitted Indebtedness).

- 154 -

(i) All Replacements shall comply in all material respects with all applicable Legal Requirements of all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction over the applicable Individual Property and applicable insurance requirements including, without limitation, applicable building codes, special use permits, environmental regulations, and requirements of insurance underwriters.

(j) In addition to any insurance required under the Loan Documents, Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided workmen’s compensation insurance, builder’s risk, and public liability insurance and other insurance to the extent required under applicable law in connection with a particular Replacement. All such policies shall be in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to Lender. All such policies which can be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses making loss payable to Lender or its assigns shall be so endorsed. Certified copies of such policies shall be delivered to Lender.

7.3.4. Failure to Make Replacements. (a) It shall be an Event of Default under this Agreement if Borrower or Operating Lessee fails to comply with any provision of this Section 7.3 and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Lender. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of such an Event of Default, Lender may use the Replacement Reserve Fund (or any portion thereof) for any purpose, including but not limited to completion of the Replacements as provided in Section 7.3.3, or for any other repair or replacement to any Individual Property or toward payment of the Debt in such order, proportion and priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion. Lender’s right to withdraw and apply the Replacement Reserve Fund shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies provided to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Lender to apply all or any portion of the Replacement Reserve Fund on account of an Event of Default to payment of the Debt or in any specific order or priority.

7.3.5. Balance in the Replacement Reserve Account. The insufficiency of any balance in the Replacement Reserve Account shall not relieve Borrower or Operating Lessee from its obligation to fulfill all preservation and maintenance covenants in the Loan Documents or to complete the Replacements as required hereunder.

In addition, during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) Lender shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose any Mortgage in any manner and for any amounts secured by such Mortgage then due and payable as determined by Lender in its sole discretion including, without limitation, in the event Borrower or any other Loan Party defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of interest, (ii) Lender may foreclose one or more of the Mortgages to recover such delinquent payments or (iii) in the event Lender elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loan, Lender may foreclose one or more of the Mortgages to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loan

- 164 -

as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by the Mortgages as Lender may elect. Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, the remaining Properties shall remain subject to the Mortgages to secure payment of sums secured by the Mortgages and not previously recovered.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security documents (the “Severed Loan Documents”) in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its rights and remedies provided hereunder. Borrower and Operating Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to time, promptly after the request of Lender, a severance agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee hereby absolutely and irrevocably appoints Lender as its respective true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to effect the aforesaid severance, each of Borrower and Operating Lessee ratifying all that its said attorney shall do by virtue thereof; provided, however, Lender shall not make or execute any such documents under such power until three (3) days after notice has been given to Borrower and Operating Lessee by Lender of Lender’s intent to exercise its rights under such power. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, recording or filing of the Severed Loan Documents and the Severed Loan Documents shall not contain any representations, warranties or covenants not contained in the Loan Documents and any such representations and warranties contained in the Severed Loan Documents will be given by Borrower and Operating Lessee only as of the Closing Date.

(d) As used in this Section 8.2, a “foreclosure” shall include, without limitation, any sale by power of sale.

Section 8.3. Remedies Cumulative; Waivers. 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 Borrower and any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Lender’s rights, powers and remedies may be pursued singularly, concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in Lender’s sole 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 one Default or Event of Default with respect to Borrower or any other Loan Party shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default by Borrower or any other Loan Party or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon.

(a) Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee covenants and agrees that prior to a Securitization of the Loan, upon Lender’s request Borrower shall (i) deliver one or more new notes to replace the original note or modify the original note and other loan documents, as reasonably required, to reflect additional components of the Loan or allocate spread or principal among any new or existing components in Lender’s sole discretion, provided, (1) such new or modified note shall at all times have the same weighted average spread of the original Note (except following an Event of Default or any prepayment of the Loan pursuant to Sections 2.4.1 or 2.4.2 hereof, provided that in no event shall the prepayment of the Free Prepayment Amount change the weighted average coupon of the Loan) and (2) no amortization of principal of the Loan will be required and (ii) modify the Cash Management Agreement to reflect such new components; and further provided, that none of the foregoing actions shall have a material adverse effect on Borrower or affect any of the rights or obligations of Borrower and Operating Lessee under the Loan Documents in any materially adverse respect.

- 168 -

(c) Each of Borrower, Operating Lessee and the other Loan Parties shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender in connection with this Section 9.1.2, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the Rating Agencies within ten (10) days following such request by Lender.

- 169 -

Loan Parties shall execute such amendments to the Loan Documents and the Mezzanine Loan Documents as are necessary in connection with the creation of such New Mezzanine Loan, including to provide that with respect to any New Mezzanine Loan (a) only the most junior New Mezzanine Lender that is not an affiliate of any Loan Party shall have the right to approve the Annual Budget during a Debt Yield Trigger Period under Section 5.1.11(d) and (b) only the most junior New Mezzanine Lender that is not an affiliate of any Loan Party shall have the right to approve alterations as set forth under Section 5.1.22 and the Annual Budget and any operating budgets pursuant to Section 5.1.11 (collectively, the “Mezzanine Modifications”); provided, that no such amendments or other documents shall modify any provisions of the Loan Documents or the Mezzanine Loan Documents other than to effectuate such reallocation, to incorporate the Mezzanine Modifications and as otherwise necessary to accurately reflect such New Mezzanine Loan. If Borrower shall cause the formation of one or more special purpose, bankruptcy remote entities as required by Lender in order to serve as the borrower under any New Mezzanine Loan or, if available, utilize an upper-tier special purpose vehicle in its structure as such borrower (each, a “New Mezzanine Borrower” and collectively, “New Mezzanine Borrowers”), the applicable organizational documents of Borrower, Operating Lessee, the other Loan Parties and Mezzanine Borrowers shall be amended and modified as necessary or required in the formation of any New Mezzanine Borrowers, but subject to the other terms of this Section 9.1.2(d). Further, in connection with any New Mezzanine Loan, Borrower, Operating Lessee and each other Loan Party shall deliver to Lender opinions of legal counsel with respect to due execution, authority and enforceability of the New Mezzanine Loan and the Loan Documents and the New Mezzanine Loan Documents, as amended, in substantially the same form as the opinion delivered on the Closing Date, and an updated Insolvency Opinion for the Loan delivered on the Closing Date and a substantive non-consolidation opinion with respect to any New Mezzanine Loan, each as reasonably acceptable to Lender and/or the Approved Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall there be more than one New Mezzanine Loan.

(e) Borrower covenants and agrees that any such reallocation described in this Section 9.1.2 will be conducted in compliance with the representations and warranties regarding separateness set forth in Sections 4.1.30 and 5.1.28(a) hereof. Borrower will reflect such reallocation on its books and records as a contribution from the applicable Mezzanine Borrower to Borrower or a distribution from Borrower to its member, as applicable.

9.1.3. Uncross of Properties. Borrower agrees that at any time Lender shall have the unilateral right to elect to uncross any of the Properties (the “Affected Property”). In furtherance thereof, Lender shall have the right to (i) sever or divide the Note and the other Loan Documents in order to allocate to such Affected Property the applicable Release Amount evidenced by a new note and secured by such other loan documents (collectively, the “New Note”) having a principal amount equal to the Release Amount applicable to such Affected Property, (ii) segregate the applicable portion of each of the Reserve Funds relating to the Affected Property, (iii) release any cross-default and/or cross-collateralization provisions applicable to such Affected Property and (iv) take such additional action consistent therewith; provided, that (A) such New Note secured by such Affected Property, together with the Loan Documents secured by the remaining Properties, shall not (1) modify (w) the initial weighted average interest rate payable under the Note, (x) the stated maturity of the Note, (y) the aggregate amortization

- 170 -

of principal of the Note, (z) any other material economic term of the Loan, as any existed prior to the creation of the New Note and splitting of the Loan or (2) decrease the time periods during which the Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or Guarantor is permitted to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and (B) the New Note shall be in substantially the same form as the Loan Documents. In connection with the transfer of any such Affected Property as provided for in this Section 9.1.3, the Loan shall be reduced by an amount equal to amount of the Release Amount applicable to such Affected Property and the new loan secured by such Affected Property and evidenced by the New Note shall be in an amount equal to such Release Amount. Subsequent to the release of the Affected Property from the lien of the Loan pursuant to this Section 9.1.3, the balances of the components of the Loan shall be the same as they would have been had a prepayment occurred in an amount equal to the Release Amount of the Affected Property. At the request of Lender, Borrower shall otherwise cooperate with Lender’s reasonable requests in Lender’s attempt to satisfy the requirements necessary in order for Lender to obtain written confirmation from the Approved Rating Agencies that such transfer of the Affected Property from the Securitization and splitting of the Loan shall not cause a downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of the Securities or any class thereof, which requirements shall include, without limitation: (A) delivery of evidence that would be reasonably satisfactory to a prudent lender that the single purpose nature and bankruptcy remoteness of the Borrowers owning Properties and Operating Lessee operating the applicable Properties other than the Affected Property following such release have not been adversely affected and are in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which evidence may include a “bring-down” of the Insolvency Opinion); and (B) if the same would be required by a prudent lender in such circumstances, an opinion of counsel that the release of the Affected Property will not be a “significant modification” of this Loan within the meaning of Section 1.1001-3 of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, nor cause a Securitization Vehicle to fail to qualify as a REMIC Trust or Grantor Trust or a tax to be imposed on a Securitization Vehicle. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Borrower or Lender in connection with this Section 9.1.3 (including, without limitation, any documentary stamp taxes, intangible taxes, other recording taxes and any costs and expenses incurred by Borrower in connection with the transfer of the Affected Property to a Special Purpose Entity and the maintenance and operation of such Special Purpose Entity) shall be paid in accordance with Section 9.1.4 below.

9.1.4. Costs. All reasonable out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses incurred by Borrower, any other Loan Party and Guarantor in connection with Borrower’s complying with this Section 9.1 and any fees and expenses of the Rating Agencies incurred in connection with a sale, syndication or participation of the Loan and/or Securitization shall be paid by Lender, provided, that Borrower shall be responsible for payment of all of Borrower’s, any other Loan Party’s and Guarantor’s respective attorneys’ fees and expenses.

Section 9.2. Securitization Indemnification. (a) Each of Borrower, Operating Lessee and each other Loan Party understands that certain of the Provided Information may be included in Disclosure Documents in connection with the Securitization and may also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act,

- 171 -

or the Exchange Act or provided or made available to investors or prospective investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies, and service providers relating to the Securitization.

This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Indemnifying Persons may otherwise have. Moreover, the indemnification and reimbursement obligations provided for in clauses (B) and (C) above shall be effective, valid and binding obligations of Indemnifying Persons, whether or not an indemnification agreement described in clause (A) above is provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification agreement shall not require, with respect to any financial projections or reforecasts that are included in the Provided Information or in the Disclosure Documents (to the extent such projections or reforecasts are included in the Provided Information), that the Indemnifying Persons be liable for any Liabilities resulting from the actual results being different from such projections or reforecasts so long as (i) the Indemnifying Persons had no reason to believe that such projections or reforecasts were materially inaccurate and (ii) the Indemnifying Persons have disclosed to Lender all facts known to them and have not failed to disclose any fact known to them, in each case that could be reasonably expected to cause any such projections or reforecasts or made herein to be materially misleading.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the Indemnified Person shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Indemnifying Person, notify such Indemnifying Person in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify such

- 173 -

Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.2 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and, provided, further, that the failure to notify such Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under the provisions of this Section 9.2. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Person, and it shall notify any Indemnifying Person thereof, such Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. After notice from any Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense thereof except as provided in the following sentence; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both an Indemnifying Person, on the one hand, and one or more Indemnified Persons on the other hand, and an Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there are any legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Persons that are different or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person, the Indemnified Person or Persons shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person or Persons. The Indemnified Person shall instruct its counsel to maintain reasonably detailed billing records for fees and disbursements for which such Indemnified Person is seeking reimbursement hereunder and shall submit copies of such detailed billing records to substantiate that such counsel’s fees and disbursements are solely related to the defense of a claim for which the Indemnifying Person is required hereunder to indemnify such Indemnified Person. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable for the expenses of more than one (1) such separate counsel and local counsel unless such Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to another Indemnified Person.

(e) Borrower shall jointly and severally indemnify the Lender and each of its respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates against any liabilities to which Lender, each of its respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives, agents and Affiliates, may become subject in connection with any indemnification to the Rating Agencies in connection with issuing, monitoring or maintaining the Securities insofar as the liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact in any information provided by or on behalf of the Borrowers to the Rating Agencies (the “Covered Rating Agency Information”) or arise out of or are based upon the omission to state a material fact in the Covered Rating Agency Information required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements in the Covered Rating Agency Information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Indemnifying Persons shall not be responsible for any (x) liabilities relating to untrue statements or omissions in any Covered Rating Agency Information which Borrower was provided an opportunity to review and provided notice to Lender in writing prior to the pricing of any Securities or (y) any liabilities relating to any Covered Rating Agency Information (or the applicable provisions thereof) that Borrower is not first provided an opportunity to review; and (ii) the Indemnifying Persons shall not be liable for any misstatements or omissions in any Covered Rating Agency Information resulting from Lender’s failure to accurately transcribe written information provided by or on behalf of the Indemnifying Persons to Lender unless Borrower was provided a reasonable opportunity to review such Covered Rating Agency Information (or the applicable portions thereof) and failed to notify Lender of such misstatements or omissions).

As long as an Indemnifying Person has complied with its obligations to defend and indemnify hereunder, such Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement made by any Indemnified Person without the consent of such Indemnifying Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(g) The Indemnifying Persons agree that if any indemnification or reimbursement sought pursuant to this Section 9.2 is finally judicially determined to be unavailable for any reason or is insufficient to hold any Indemnified Person harmless (with respect only to the Liabilities that are the subject of this Section 9.2), then the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, shall contribute to the Liabilities for which such indemnification or reimbursement is held unavailable or is insufficient: (x) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, from the transactions to which such indemnification or reimbursement relates; or (y) if the allocation provided by clause (x) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (x) but also the relative faults of the Indemnifying Persons, on the one hand, and all Indemnified Persons, on the other hand, as well as any other equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.2, (A) no party found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any other party who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (B) the Indemnifying Persons agree that in no event shall the amount to be contributed by the Indemnified Persons collectively pursuant to this paragraph exceed the amount of the fees actually received by the Indemnified Persons in connection with the closing of the Loan and Securitization.

(h) The Indemnifying Persons agree that the indemnification, contribution and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Section 9.2 shall apply whether or not any Indemnified Person is a formal party to any lawsuits, claims or other proceedings.

- 175 -

(i) The liabilities and obligations of the Indemnified Persons and the Indemnifying Persons under this Section 9.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.

The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (i) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (ii) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower or any other Loan Party as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under any of the Mortgages; (iii) affect the validity or enforceability of or any guaranty made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder; (iv) impair the right of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (v) impair the enforcement of any assignment of leases contained in the Mortgage; or (vi) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower or any other Loan Party in order to fully realize the security granted by each of the Mortgages or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against all of the Properties.

(b) Nothing contained herein shall in any manner or way release, affect or impair the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower and the other Loan Parties, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation to the extent actually incurred by Lender (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred by Lender) arising out of or incurred in connection with the following actions or omissions:

(i) fraud or material and willful misrepresentation by Borrower, any other Loan Party, Guarantor, or any Affiliate of Borrower, any other Loan Party or Guarantor Controlled by BREP or Guarantor in connection with the Loan;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of this Section 9.4, Hilton Manager and any subsidiary of Hilton Worldwide Inc. shall not be considered an Affiliate of Borrower, Operating Lessee, Principal or Guarantor.

Section 9.5. Servicer. At the option of Lender, the Loan may be serviced by a master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer and/or trustee (any such master servicer, primary servicer, special servicer, and trustee, together with its agents, nominees or designees, are collectively referred to as “Servicer”) selected by Lender and Lender may delegate all or any portion of its responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Servicer pursuant to a pooling and servicing agreement, trust and servicing agreement, servicing agreement, special servicing agreement or other agreement providing for the servicing of one or more mortgage loans (collectively, the “Servicing Agreement”) between Lender and Servicer. Borrower shall not be responsible for any cost or expenses relating to the Servicing Agreement or the services provided by Servicer thereunder, including, without limitation, any set-up fees or other initial costs, the regular monthly master servicing fee or trustee fee due to Servicer under the Servicing Agreement or any other fees or expenses required to be borne by, and not reimbursable to, Servicer, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall promptly reimburse Lender on demand for (a) interest payable on advances made by Servicer with respect to delinquent debt service payments (to the extent charges pursuant to Section 2.3.4 and interest at the Default Rate actually paid by Borrower in respect of such payments are insufficient to pay the same) or expenses paid by Servicer in curing any Event of Default hereunder and which are provided for under the Servicing Agreement or actual, out-of-pocket expenses paid by Servicer in respect of the protection and preservation of the Properties (including, without limitation, payments of Taxes and Insurance Premiums), (b) the following costs and expenses payable by Lender to Servicer as a result of the Loan becoming specially serviced: (i) any liquidation fees that are due and payable to Servicer under the Servicing Agreement in connection with the exercise of any or all remedies permitted under this Agreement, (ii) any workout fees and special servicing fees that are due and payable to Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, which fees may be due and payable under the Servicing Agreement on a periodic or continuing basis, and (iii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the costs of all property inspections and/or appraisals of the Properties (or any updates to any existing inspection or appraisal) that Servicer may be required to obtain (other than the cost of regular annual inspections required to be borne by Servicer under the Servicing Agreement), and (c) customary and reasonable servicing fees in connection with any special requests made by Borrower to Servicer during the term of the Loan.

- 179 -

Section 9.6. Matters Concerning Franchisor.

(a) If (a) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and if the Franchisor is not an Affiliate of Borrower, solely to the extent permitted pursuant to the Franchise Agreement or the applicable comfort letter or (b) Franchisor shall become subject to a Bankruptcy Action, Borrower or Operating Lessee, as applicable, shall, at the request of Lender, terminate the Franchise Agreement and replace the Franchisor with a Qualified Franchisor pursuant to a Replacement Franchise Agreement; provided that with respect to clause (a) above, such termination shall be after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice if Franchisor is an Affiliate of Borrower. At all times when Operating Lessee is the party to any Franchise Agreement, Borrower shall cause Operating Lessee to comply with the terms of this Section 9.6 with respect to such Franchise Agreement. For purposes of this Section 9.6, Hilton Worldwide, Inc. (together with its successors) or any subsidiary thereof shall not be deemed an Affiliate of Borrower or Guarantor.

Section 9.7. Register. (a) The Servicer, or if no Servicer has been engaged, Lender, as non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain a record that identifies each owner (including successors and assignees) of an interest in the Loan, including the name and address of the owner, and each owner’s rights to principal and stated interest (the “Register”), and shall record all transfers of an interest in the Loan, including each assignment, in the Register. Transfers of interests in the Loan (including assignments) shall be subject to the applicable conditions set forth in the Loan Documents with respect thereto and Servicer will update the Register to reflect the transfer. Furthermore, each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts and stated interest of each participant’s interest (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations. The entries in the Register and Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower, the Lenders and the Servicer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrower, the Lenders and the Servicer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, however, shall not affect Borrower’s obligations in respect of the Loan. Borrower and Lender acknowledge that the Notes are in registered form and may not be transferred except by register.

(b) Borrower agrees that each participant pursuant to Section 9.1.1(a) shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.2.3(f) and (h) and Section 2.7 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.7(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.7(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided

- 180 -

that such participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(h) as if it were an assignee hereunder; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.2.3(f) or Section 2.7, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in a requirement of law or in the interpretation or application thereof, or compliance by such participant or the participating Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) issued from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

Section 10.9. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 10.10. Preferences. Lender shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all payments by Borrower and any other Loan Party to any portion of the obligations of Borrower and such other Loan Parties hereunder in accordance with the Loan Documents.

Section 10.11. Waiver of Notice. Neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except with respect to matters for which this Agreement or the other Loan Documents specifically and expressly provide for the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower or any other Loan Party and except with respect to matters for which Borrower and the other Loan Parties are not, pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice.

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender or its agents have acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Lender or such agent, as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, each of Borrower and the other Loan Parties agrees that neither Lender nor its agents shall be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s and such other Loan Party’s sole remedy 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 10.13. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) Other than as expressly provided for in Sections 9.1 and 9.4, Borrower covenants and agrees to pay or, if Borrower fails to pay, to reimburse, Lender upon receipt of written notice from Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Lender in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other

- 186 -

Loan Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and all the costs of furnishing all opinions by counsel for Borrower and the other Loan Parties (including, without limitation, any opinions requested by Lender as to any legal matters arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with respect to the Properties) subject to the terms and provisions of Section 9.1.4 hereof; (ii) Borrower’s and the other Loan Parties’ ongoing performance of and compliance with Borrower’s and the other Loan Parties’ agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements; (iii) Lender’s ongoing performance and compliance with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its part to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date; (iv) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of any consents, amendments, waivers or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents or matters reasonably requested by Borrower; (v) securing Borrower’s and the other Loan Parties’ compliance with any requests made pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement; (vi) the filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance and fees and expenses of counsel for providing to Lender all required legal opinions, and other similar expenses incurred in creating and perfecting the Liens in favor of Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vii) enforcing or preserving any rights, in response to third party claims or the prosecuting or defending of any action or proceeding or other litigation, in each case against, under or affecting Borrower, any other Loan Party, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Properties, or any other security given for the Loan; (viii) enforcing any obligations of or collecting any payments due from Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or with respect to the Properties (including any fees and expenses reasonably incurred by or payable to Servicer or a trustee in connection with the transfer of the Loan to a special servicer upon Servicer’s anticipation of a Default or Event of Default, liquidation fees, workout fees, special servicing fees, operating advisor fees or any other similar fees and interest payable on advances made by the Servicer with respect to delinquent debt service payments or expenses of curing Borrowers’ or any other Loan Parties’ defaults under the Loan Documents) or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work out” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or any other amounts required under Section 9.5 hereof, provided, however, that Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall not be liable for the payment of any such costs and expenses to the extent the same arise by reason of the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of Lender; and (ix) any cost and expenses due and payable to Lender may be paid from any amounts in the Cash Management Account.

(b) Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party in any manner relating to or arising out of (i) any breach by Borrower or any other Loan Party of its obligations under, or any material misrepresentation by Borrower or any other Loan Party contained in, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (ii) the use or intended use of the

- 187 -

proceeds of the Loan (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Party hereunder to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party; provided, further, that this Section 10.13(b) shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-tax claim.

Each of Borrower and Operating Lessee agrees that the Mortgages are and will be cross collateralized and cross defaulted with each other so that (i) an Event of Default under any of the Mortgages shall constitute an Event of Default under each of the other Mortgages which secure the Note; (ii) an Event of Default under the Note or this Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under each Mortgage; (iii) each Mortgage shall constitute security for the Note as if a single blanket lien were placed on all of the Properties as security for the Note; and (iv) such cross collateralization shall in no event be deemed to constitute a fraudulent conveyance.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of Borrower and Operating Lessee, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Borrower, Operating Lessee, Borrower’s and/or Operating Lessee’s partners and others with interests in Borrower, and of the Properties, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of foreclosure of all or any of the Mortgages, and agrees not to assert any right under any laws pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, homestead 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 the Properties for the collection of the Debt without any prior or different resort for collection or of the right of Lender to the payment of the Debt out of the net proceeds of the Properties in preference to every other claimant whatsoever. In addition, each of Borrower and Operating Lessee, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Mortgages, any equitable right otherwise available to Borrower and/or Operating Lessee which would require the separate sale of the Properties or require Lender to exhaust its remedies against any Individual Property or any combination of the Properties before proceeding against any other Individual Property or combination of Properties; and further in the event of such foreclosure each of Borrower and Operating Lessee does hereby expressly consents to and authorizes, at the option of Lender, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of any combination of the Properties.

Section 10.21. Brokers and Financial Advisors. Each of Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereby represents that it has dealt with no financial advisors, brokers, underwriters, placement agents, agents or finders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses of any kind (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to or arising from a claim by any Person that such Person acted on behalf of Borrower, or any other Loan Party or Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated herein.

Upon the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become the Administrative Agent hereunder and any further resignation or replacement of any successor Administrative Agent shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.24(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the Loan is sold by any Lender such that the Loan is held by a single Lender, then automatically, and without any further action by any such Lender, all references to Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to refer to such single Lender (or affiliate appointed thereby) that holds the Loan.

(d) Lenders. Except as otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have no obligation to recognize or deal directly with any Lender. Borrower may direct all notices, financial reporting, and requests for consent or approvals and any other relayed documentation or information to Administrative Agent and may conclusively rely upon the actions of Administrative Agent to bind the Lenders, notwithstanding that any particular action in question may, pursuant to this Agreement or any Lender Document, be subject to the consent or approval of some or all of the Lenders in accordance with this Section 10.24.

A Non-Consenting Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if (y) prior thereto, such Non-Consenting Lender consents to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent, or (z) such amendment, waiver or consent required the consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Lenders constituting the Requisite Lenders consent to same.

(f) At all times (i) the liabilities of Lender shall be several and not joint, (ii) no Co-Lender shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Co-Lender, and (iii) each Co-Lender shall be liable to Borrower and the other Loan Parties only for their respective Ratable Share of the Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all indemnities by Borrower and the other Loan Parties and obligations for costs, expenses, damages or advances set forth herein shall run to and benefit each Co-Lender in accordance with its Ratable Share.

(g) Each Co-Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the other Co-Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrower, the other Loan Parties and its Affiliates and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the other Co-Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.
