- 2 -

disability, as defined in any disability insurance policy of CapStar with benefits payable to Executive, or if there is no such disability insurance policy, then as defined in CapStar’s established policy applicable to executive officers (“Disability”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board at a duly constituted meeting of the Board, finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the reasons therefor. Executive shall have the right to appear and defend himself at any meeting of the Board at which such a resolution is under consideration.

(b) For Cause; Nonrenewal. In the event of termination of Executive by CapStar for Cause or election by CapStar or Executive not to renew or extend the Term, Executive shall be entitled to receive only the compensation that has been earned and accrued as of the date of termination but no other monies or benefits except that: (A) in the case of Executive’s Disability, if no disability plan or disability insurance policy is in place, Executive shall receive fifty per cent (50%) of his Base Salary for a period not to exceed twenty four (24) weeks following the date of termination; and (B) subject to Section 13 hereof, Executive shall be entitled to receive any extended benefits provided to all employees of CapStar or required by law, such as, for example, COBRA health insurance coverage.

(c) Without Cause. In the event that: (A) CapStar terminates executive’s employment hereunder without cause; or (B) CapStar engages in conduct that constitutes Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled (i) to resign from his employment with CapStar, (ii) to continue to receive his Base Salary, payable as before such termination, for a period of two (2) years after the effective date of such termination, (iii) subject to Section 13 hereof, be provided, for a period of twenty-four (24) months after such termination, with life, medical, dental and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the CapStar for Executive prior to Executive’s severance, and (iv) to receive all benefits and reimbursements accrued and payable to Executive at the time of termination of his employment hereunder, including any stock or payments to which Executive is entitled under, and subject to the terms of, all incentive plans in which Executive participates (including and subject to the terms of each and any individual grant or award agreement), including stock option plans, restricted stock plans, performance share plans, and any other stock-based or cash-based incentive plans and the individual grant or award agreements under such plans (collectively, Executive’s “Severance Pay”); provided, however, that if CapStar offers and Executive voluntarily accepts terms of employment that would otherwise constitute Good Reason, then Executive shall be deemed to have waived his right to resign and receive Severance Pay. Upon termination of Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason (other than by CapStar for Cause), whether voluntarily by Executive or by termination by CapStar without Cause, by non-renewal, or otherwise, Executive shall continue to be bound by the provisions contained in Sections 8, 9, 10 and 11 hereof.

(d) By Executive. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions in this Agreement, Executive may terminate or elect not to extend his employment hereunder without notice at any time. In the event of a termination or election not to extend the Term by Executive for any reason other than Good Reason, including the death or Disability of Executive, Executive shall be entitled to receive only the compensation that has been earned and benefits and reimbursements that have accrued as of the date of termination and any extended benefits required by law, but no other monies or benefits other than continuing benefits under any retirement plan, disability insurance policy, or life insurance policy payable by virtue of the retirement, death or disability of Executive having occurred prior to such termination of employment. Upon termination of Executive’s employment by Executive for whatever reason, Executive shall continue to be bound by the provisions set forth in Sections 8, 9, 10 and 11 hereof.
