     The Notes shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 in principal amount at maturity and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

     SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent.

FelCor LP shall cause the Registrar to keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange (the “Note Register”).

FelCor LP shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent and any change in the address of such Agent. If FelCor LP fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent and/or agent for service of notices and demands, the Trustee shall act as such Registrar, Paying Agent and/or agent for service of notices and demands. FelCor LP may remove any Agent upon written notice to such Agent and the Trustee; provided that no such removal shall become effective until (i) the acceptance of an appointment by a successor Agent to such Agent as evidenced by an appropriate agency agreement entered into by FelCor LP and such successor Agent and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as such Agent until the appointment of a successor Agent in accordance with clause (i) of this proviso.

If, at any time, the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Registrar shall make available to the Trustee on or before each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as the Trustee may reasonably request, the names and addresses of the Holders as they appear in the Note Register.

     SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent To Hold Money in Trust. Not later than each due date of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Notes, FelCor LP shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, and interest so becoming due; provided that if the Trustee is then serving as Paying Agent, FelCor LP agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to deposit or otherwise transfer such funds to the Trustee by no later than 11:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, on the applicable due date. FelCor LP shall require each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes (whether such money has been paid to it by FelCor LP or any other obligor on the Notes), and such Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Trustee of any default by FelCor LP (or any other obligor on the Notes) in making any such payment. FelCor LP at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and account for any funds disbursed, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any payment default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money so paid over to the Trustee. If FelCor, FelCor LP or any Subsidiary of FelCor or FelCor LP or any Affiliate of any of them acts as Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of any principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, segregate and hold in a separate trust fund for the benefit of the Holders a sum of money sufficient to pay such principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sum of money shall be paid to such Holders or otherwise disposed of as provided in this Indenture, and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure to act.

Prior to the registration of any transfer by a Holder as provided herein, FelCor LP, the Guarantors, the Trustee, and any agent of FelCor LP shall treat the person in whose name the Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes whether or not the Note shall be overdue, and neither FelCor LP, the Guarantors, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, FelCor LP shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Notes at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of the Notes, but FelCor LP may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or other similar governmental charge payable upon exchanges pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.08 or 9.04).

     The Registrar shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of Notes selected for redemption under Section 3.03 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent FelCor LP, the Guarantors, the Trustee or any agent of FelCor LP, the Guarantors, or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note.

     (b) Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global Note in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Note may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Section 2.08. In addition, U.S. Physical Notes and Offshore Physical Notes shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the U.S. Global Note or the Offshore Global Note, respectively, if (i) the Depositary notifies FelCor LP that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the U.S. Global Note or the Offshore Global Note, as the case may be, and a successor depositary is not appointed by FelCor LP within 90 days of such notice, (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Registrar has received a request therefor from the Depositary or (iii) in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Section 2.08.

     (i) Prior to 40 days from the initial issuance of a series of Notes, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer of a Note to a Non-U.S. Person upon receipt of a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto from the proposed transferor. On and after 40 days from the initial issuance of a series of Notes, the Registrar shall register any proposed transfer to any Non-U.S. Person if the Note to be transferred is a U.S. Physical Note or an interest in the U.S. Global Note, upon receipt of a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D from the proposed transferor.

     (f) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver Notes that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Registrar shall deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless either (i) the circumstances contemplated by the second sentence of the fourth paragraph of Section 2.01 or paragraph (a)(i)(x) or (e)(ii) of this Section 2.08 exist or (ii) there is delivered to the Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to FelCor and FelCor LP and the Trustee to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act.

     (g) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Note unless such transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Note set forth in this Indenture. In connection with any transfer of Notes, each Holder agrees by its acceptance of the Notes to furnish the Registrar or FelCor LP such certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided that the Registrar shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a determination made by FelCor LP with respect to) the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information.

     The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to Section 2.07 or this Section 2.08. FelCor LP shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

     SECTION 2.09. Replacement Notes. If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or if the Holder claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, FelCor LP shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note of like tenor and amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding; provided that the requirements of this Section 2.09 are met. If required by the Trustee or FelCor LP, an indemnity bond must be furnished that is sufficient in the judgment of both the Trustee and FelCor LP to protect FelCor LP, the Guarantors, the Trustee or any Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. FelCor LP

-27-


Table of Contents

may charge such Holder for its expenses and the expenses of the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case any such mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, FelCor LP in its discretion may pay such Note instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

     Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of FelCor LP and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

     SECTION 2.10. Outstanding Notes. Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.10 as not outstanding.

     If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless and until the Trustee and FelCor LP receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser.

     If the Paying Agent (other than FelCor, FelCor LP or an Affiliate of FelCor or FelCor LP) holds on the maturity date money sufficient to pay Notes payable on that date, then on and after that date such Notes cease to be outstanding and interest on them shall cease to accrue.

     A Note does not cease to be outstanding because FelCor or FelCor LP or one of their Affiliates holds such Note; provided that, in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Notes owned by FelCor, FelCor LP, the Guarantors or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of FelCor LP or the Guarantors or of such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Notes which the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not FelCor LP or the Guarantors or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of FelCor LP or the Guarantors or of such other obligor.

     SECTION 2.11. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, FelCor LP may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the Officers executing the temporary Notes, as evidenced by their execution of such temporary Notes. If temporary Notes are issued, FelCor LP will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of FelCor LP designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes FelCor LP shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Notes.

     SECTION 2.12. Cancellation. FelCor LP at any time may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which FelCor LP may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which FelCor LP has not issued and sold. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation in accordance with its normal procedure.

     SECTION 2.13. CUSIP Numbers. FelCor LP in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP,” “CINS” or “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use), and the Trustee shall use CUSIP, CINS or ISIN numbers, as the case may be, in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice shall state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any

-28-


Table of Contents

notice of redemption or exchange and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

     SECTION 2.14. Defaulted Interest. If FelCor LP or the Guarantors default in a payment of interest on the Notes, FelCor LP or the Guarantors shall pay, or shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay the defaulted interest, plus (to the extent lawful) any interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders on a subsequent special record date. A special record date, as used in this Section 2.14 with respect to the payment of any defaulted interest, shall mean the 15th day next preceding the date fixed by FelCor LP for the payment of defaulted interest, whether or not such day is a Business Day. At least 15 days before the subsequent special record date, FelCor LP shall mail to each Holder and to the Trustee a notice that states the subsequent special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid.

     SECTION 2.15. Issuance of Additional Notes. FelCor LP may, subject to compliance with Article Four of this Indenture, issue additional Notes under this Indenture. The Notes issued on the Closing Date and any additional Notes subsequently issued shall be treated as a single class for all purposes under this Indenture.

     SECTION 3.02. Notices to Trustee. If FelCor LP elects to redeem Notes pursuant to Section 3.01, it shall notify the Trustee in writing of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed in an Officers’ Certificate at least 45 days before the Redemption Date (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee).

     SECTION 3.03. Selection of Notes To Be Redeemed. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed in compliance with the requirements, as certified to it by FelCor LP, of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed or, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and appropriate; provided that no Notes of $1,000 in principal amount at maturity shall be redeemed in part.

be redeemed on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as practicable (subject to the procedures of the Depositary) unless such method is otherwise prohibited.

     The Trustee shall make the selection from the Notes outstanding and not previously called for redemption. Notes in denominations of $1,000 in principal amount at maturity may only be redeemed in whole. The Trustee may select for redemption portions (equal to $1,000 in principal amount at maturity or any integral multiple thereof) of Notes that have denominations larger than $1,000 in principal amount at maturity. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption. The Trustee shall notify FelCor LP and the Registrar promptly in writing of the Notes or portions of Notes to be called for redemption.

     SECTION 3.04. Notice of Redemption. With respect to any redemption of Notes pursuant to Section 3.01, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, FelCor LP shall mail a notice of redemption by first class mail to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed.

          (ii) the Redemption Price;

          (iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent;

          (iv) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent in order to collect the Redemption Price;

          (v) that, unless FelCor LP defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holders is to receive payment of the Redemption Price plus accrued interest to the Redemption Date upon surrender of the Notes to the Paying Agent;

          (vi) that, if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount (equal to $1,000 in principal amount at maturity or any integral multiple thereof) of such Note to be redeemed and that, on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount at maturity equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be reissued; and

          (vii) that, if any Note contains a CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number as provided in Section 2.13, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number either as printed on the Notes or as contained in the notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes.

     At FelCor LP’s request (which request may be revoked by FelCor LP at any time prior to the time at which the Trustee shall have given such notice to the Holders), made in writing to the Trustee at least 45 days (or such shorter period as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) before a Redemption Date, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the name and at the expense of FelCor LP. If, however, FelCor LP gives such notice to the Holders, FelCor LP shall concurrently deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such notice has been given.

In any event, failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of Notes held by Holders to whom such notice was properly given.

     SECTION 3.06. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to any Redemption Date, FelCor LP shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if FelCor LP is acting as its own Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.05) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Notes to be redeemed on that date other than Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on that date that have been delivered by FelCor LP to the Trustee for cancellation.

     SECTION 3.07. Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given in the manner provided above, the Notes or portion of Notes specified in such notice to be redeemed shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the Redemption Price stated therein, together with accrued interest to such Redemption Date, and on and after such date (unless FelCor LP shall default in the payment of such Notes at the Redemption Price and accrued interest to the Redemption Date, in which case the principal, until paid, shall bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in the Notes), such Notes shall cease to accrue interest. Upon surrender of any Note for redemption in accordance with a notice of redemption, such Note shall be paid and redeemed by FelCor LP at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date.

provided that any event which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary or any subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness (other than to FelCor LP or FelCor or any other Restricted Subsidiary) shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an Incurrence of such Indebtedness not permitted by this clause (ii);

Subject to Sections 7.07, 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to FelCor LP upon request set forth in an Officers’ Certificate any excess money held by them at any time and thereupon shall be relieved from all liability with respect to such money. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to FelCor LP upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains unclaimed for two years; provided that the Trustee or such Paying Agent before being required to make any payment may cause to be published at the expense of FelCor LP once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York or mail to each Holder entitled to such money at such Holder’s address (as set forth in the Note Register) notice that such money remains unclaimed and that after a date specified therein (which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing) any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to FelCor LP.

     SECTION 8.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, FelCor LP’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be; provided that, if FelCor LP has made any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes because of the reinstatement of its obligations, FelCor LP shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money or U.S. Government Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.

     (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency in this Indenture; provided that such amendments or supplements shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material respect;

     (2) to comply with Section 4.07 or Article Five;

     (3) to comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA;

     (4) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee;

     (5) to secure or Guarantee the Notes; or

     (6) to make any change that, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors as evidenced by a Board Resolution, does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

     SECTION 9.02. With Consent of Holders. Subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 and without prior notice to the Holders, FelCor, FelCor LP and the Subsidiary Guarantors, when authorized by their Board of Directors (as evidenced by a Board Resolution), and the Trustee may amend this Indenture and the Notes with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding, and the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes then outstanding by written notice to the Trustee may waive future compliance by FelCor or FelCor LP with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes.

     Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9.02, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.04, may not:

     (i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note,

     (ii) reduce the principal amount of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note,

     (iii) change the place of payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, or adversely affect any right of repayment at the option of any Holder of any Note,

     (vi) waive a Default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes,

Table of Contents

     (viii) modify any of the provisions of this Section 9.02, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby; or

     (ix) reduce the percentage or aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes the consent of whose Holders is necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults.

     It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

     After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, FelCor LP shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. FelCor LP shall mail supplemental indentures to Holders upon request. Any failure of FelCor LP to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture or waiver.

     SECTION 9.03. Revocation and Effect of Consent. Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note or portion of its Note. Such revocation shall be effective only if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.

     FelCor LP may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the last two sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph, those persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies) and only those persons shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

     After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder unless it is of the type described in any of clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 9.02. In case of an amendment or waiver of the type described in clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 9.02, the amendment or waiver shall bind each Holder who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same indebtedness as the Note of the consenting Holder.

     SECTION 9.04. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed terms and return it to the Holder and the Trustee may place an appropriate notation on any Note thereafter authenticated. Alternatively, if FelCor LP or the Trustee so determines, FelCor LP in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms.

     SECTION 9.05. Trustee To Sign Amendments, Etc. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article Nine is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall sign such amendment, supplement or waiver if the same does not adversely affect the rights of the Trustee. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, execute any such amendment, supplement or waiver that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

ARTICLE XI

GUARANTEE OF THE NOTES

     SECTION 11.01. Guarantee. Subject to the provisions of this Article Eleven, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustee on behalf of the Holders: (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium if any, on and interest on the Notes, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, the due and punctual payment of interest on the over due principal of and interest, if any, on the Notes, to the extent lawful, and the due and punctual performance of all other obligations of FelCor LP to the Holders or the Trustee, all in accordance with the terms of such Note and this Indenture and (ii) in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, at stated maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise. Each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, filing of claims with a court in the event of merger or bankruptcy of FelCor LP, any right to require a proceeding first against FelCor LP, the benefit of discussion, protest or notice with respect to any such Note or the debt evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever (except as specified above), and covenants that this Article Eleven will not be discharged as to any such Note except by payment in full of the principal thereof and interest thereon and as provided in Sections 8.01 and 8.02. The maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article Six for the purposes of this Article Eleven. In the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article Eleven, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall become due and payable immediately by the Guarantor for the purpose of this Article Eleven. In addition, without limiting the foregoing provisions, upon the effectiveness of an acceleration under Article Six, the Trustee shall promptly make a demand for payment on the Notes under the Guarantees provided for in this Article Eleven.

     Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Holders against FelCor LP, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from FelCor LP, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the principal of, premium if any, and accrued interest on the Notes shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be deemed

-60-


Table of Contents

to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders, and shall immediately be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders to be credited and applied upon the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the issuance of the Notes pursuant to this Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this paragraph is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

     The Guarantee set forth in this Section 11.01 shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose with respect to a Note until the certificate of authentication on such Note shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee.

     Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article Eleven to the contrary, the parties acknowledge that FelCor Holdings Trust has been formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated as of July 31, 2002, and in accordance with the Declaration of Trust, none of the shareholders, trustees or officers of FelCor Holdings Trust shall be personally liable for such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article Eleven, and the Trustee shall look solely to the trust estate comprising FelCor Holdings Trust for the payment of any claim under such obligations or for the performance of such obligations.

     SECTION 11.02. Obligations of Guarantor Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Article Eleven or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall impair, as among each Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of each Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, upon failure by FelCor LP, to pay to the Holders of the Notes and principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Notes and creditors of each Guarantor, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Holder of any Note or the Trustee on their behalf from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture.

     Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article Eleven will restrict the right of the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes to take any action to declare the Guarantees to be due and payable prior to the stated maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.02 or to pursue any rights or remedies hereunder.

     SECTION 11.03. Notice to Trustee. Each Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to such Guarantor which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Guarantee pursuant to the provisions of this Article Eleven.

     SECTION 11.04. This Article Not To Prevent Events of Default. The failure to make a payment on account of principal, of premium, if any, or interest on the Notes by reason of any provision of this Article Eleven will not be construed as preventing the occurrence of an Event of Default.

     SECTION 11.05. Trustee’s Compensation Not Prejudiced. Nothing in this Article Eleven will apply to amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to other sections in this Indenture.

     SECTION 11.06. Payments May Be Paid Prior to Dissolution. Nothing contained in this Article Eleven or elsewhere in this Indenture shall prevent (i) a Guarantor from making payments of principal of, premium if any, and interest on the Notes, or from depositing with the Trustee any monies for such payments or (ii) the application by the Trustee of any monies deposited with it for the purpose of making such payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the Holders entitled thereto, each Guarantor shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of such Guarantor.

     SECTION 11.07. Release of Guarantee. The Guarantee provided pursuant to this Article 11 by each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the sale or other disposition of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor, if, as a result of such sale or disposition, such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a subsidiary of FelCor LP; provided such sale or other disposition is in compliance with the terms of this Indenture, (ii) the consolidation or merger of any such Subsidiary Guarantor with any person

-61-

other than FelCor LP or a Subsidiary of FelCor LP, if, as a result of such consolidation or merger, such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a subsidiary of FelCor LP; provided such consolidation or merger is in compliance with this Indenture, (iii) a defeasance under Section 8.02 or 8.03 of this Indenture or (iv) the unconditional and complete release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guarantee of all Guaranteed Indebtedness.

[REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]

FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

Senior Floating Rate Note due 2011

1.   Principal and Interest.

     FelCor LP will pay the principal of this Note on June 1, 2011.

     Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in cash on each June 1 and December 1 commencing on December 1, 2004 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), to the Holders of record of the Notes at the close of business on May 15 and November 15 immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date.

     If an exchange offer registered under the Securities Act is not consummated and a shelf registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to resales of the Notes is not declared effective by the Commission on or before November 22, 2004 in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, interest due on the Notes will accrue at an annual rate of 0.5% plus the interest rate specified on the face hereof until the exchange offer is consummated or the shelf registration statement is declared effective. The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of such Registration Rights Agreement.

     Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the Closing Date.

     This Note will bear interest at a rate per annum (the “Applicable Interest Rate”), reset semi-annually, equal to LIBOR plus 4.25%, as determined by the calculation agent appointed by FelCor LP (the “Calculation Agent”), which shall initially be the Trustee.

     Set forth below is a summary of certain of the defined terms used in this Section 1 relating to the determination of interest on this Note.

     “Determination Date,” with respect to an Interest Period, will be the second London Banking Day preceding the first day of the Interest Period.

     “Interest Period” means the period commencing on and including an interest payment date and ending on and including the day immediately preceding the next succeeding interest payment date, with the exception that the first Interest Period shall commence on and include the Closing Date and end on and include November 30, 2004.

     “LIBOR,” with respect to an Interest Period, will be the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits in United States dollars for a six-month period beginning on the second London Banking Day after the Determination Date that appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the Determination Date. If Telerate Page 3750 does not include such a rate or is unavailable on a Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will request the principal London office of each of four major banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide such bank’s offered quotation (expressed as a percentage per annum), as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Determination Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market for deposits in a Representative Amount in United States dollars for a six-month period beginning on the second London Banking Day after the Determination Date. If at least two such offered quotations are so provided, LIBOR for the Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are so provided, the Calculation Agent will request each of three major banks in New York City, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide such bank’s rate (expressed as a percentage per annum), as of approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Determination Date, for loans in a Representative Amount in United States dollars to leading European banks for a six-month period beginning on the second London Banking Day after the Determination Date. If at least two such rates are so provided, LIBOR for the Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean of such

A-3


Table of Contents

rates. If fewer than two such rates are so provided, then LIBOR for the Interest Period will be LIBOR in effect with respect to the immediately preceding Interest Period.

     “London Banking Day” is any day in which dealings in United States dollars are transacted or, with respect to any future date, are expected to be transacted in the London interbank market.

     “Representative Amount” means a principal amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 for a single transaction in the relevant market at the relevant time.

     “Telerate Page 3750” means the display designated as “Page 3750” on the Moneyline Telerate service (or such other page as may replace Page 3750 on that service).

     The amount of interest for each day that the Notes are outstanding (the “Daily Interest Amount”) will be calculated by dividing the interest rate in effect for such day by 360 and multiplying the result by the principal amount of the Notes. The amount of interest to be paid on the Notes for each Interest Period will be calculated by adding the Daily Interest Amounts for each day in the Interest Period.

     All percentages resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with the final one-millionths of a percentage point being rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or ..0987655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).

     The interest rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

     The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of the Holder of any Note, provide the interest rate then in effect with respect to the Notes. All calculations made by the Calculation Agent in the absence of manifest error will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on FelCor LP, the Guarantors and the Holders of the Notes.

     FelCor LP shall pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at a rate per annum that is 2% in excess of the rate otherwise payable.

2.   Method of Payment.

     FelCor LP will pay interest (except defaulted interest) on the principal amount of the Notes as provided above on each June 1 and December 1 to the persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Note Register at the close of business on such May 15 and November 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the Note is canceled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such record date; provided that, with respect to the payment of principal, FelCor LP will make payment to the Holder that surrenders this Note to a Paying Agent on or after June 1, 2011.

     FelCor LP will pay principal, premium, if any, and as provided above, interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, FelCor LP may pay principal, premium, if any, and interest by its check payable in such money. It may mail an interest check to a Holder’s registered address (as reflected in the Note Register). If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

3.   Paying Agent and Registrar.

     Initially, the Trustee will act as authenticating agent, Paying Agent and Registrar. FelCor LP may change any authenticating agent, Paying Agent or Registrar without notice. FelCor LP, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of them may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar.

4. Indenture; Limitations.

     FelCor LP issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 26, 2004 (the “Indenture”), among FelCor LP, FelCor, the Subsidiary Guarantors and SunTrust Bank (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

     The Notes are general unsecured obligations of FelCor LP.

5. Redemption.

     Except as provided below, FelCor LP may not redeem any of the Notes prior to December 1, 2006.

     The Notes may be redeemed at the option of FelCor LP, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, on or after December 1, 2006, upon not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing December 1 of the years indicated below, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date:

         
Year
  Redemption Price
2006
    102.000 %
2007
    101.000 %
2008 and thereafter
    100.000 %

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time, or from time to time, on or prior to June 1, 2007, FelCor LP may, at its option, use the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings to redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the Notes at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount thereof) equal to the sum of (a) 100% plus (b) the then Applicable Interest Rate on the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided that

     (i) at least 65% of the principal amount of the Notes issued under this Indenture remains outstanding immediately after such redemption; and

     (ii) FelCor LP makes such redemption not more than 90 days after the consummation of any such Equity Offering.

     Notice of any optional redemption will be mailed at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at its last address as it appears in the Note Register. Notes in original principal amount greater than $1,000 may be redeemed in part. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption, unless FelCor LP defaults in the payment of the amount due upon redemption.

6. Repurchase upon Change in Control.

     Upon the occurrence of any Change of Control, each Holder shall have the right to require the repurchase of its Notes by FelCor LP in cash pursuant to the offer described in the Indenture at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

A-5


Table of Contents

     A notice of such Change of Control will be mailed within 30 days after any Change of Control occurs to each Holder at his last address as it appears in the Note Register. Notes in original denominations larger than $1,000 may be sold to FelCor LP in part. On and after the Change of Control Payment Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes surrendered for purchase by FelCor LP, unless FelCor LP defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment.

7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

     The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount at maturity and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption. Also, it need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed is made.

8. Persons Deemed Owners.

     A Holder shall be treated as the owner of a Note for all purposes.

9. Unclaimed Money.

     If money for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay the money back to FelCor LP at its request. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to FelCor LP for payment, unless an abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

10. Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity.

     If FelCor LP deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes (a) to redemption or maturity, FelCor LP will be discharged from the Indenture and the Notes, except in certain circumstances for certain sections thereof, and (b) to the Stated Maturity, FelCor LP will be discharged from certain covenants set forth in the Indenture.

11. Amendment; Supplement; Waiver.

     Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency and make any change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder.

12. Restrictive Covenants.

     The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of FelCor, FelCor LP and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, among other things, to Incur additional Indebtedness, make Restricted Payments, use the proceeds from Asset Sales, engage in transactions with Affiliates or merge, consolidate or transfer substantially all of their assets. Within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter (90 days after the end of the last fiscal quarter of each year), FelCor and FelCor LP must report to the Trustee on compliance with such limitations.

Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

17. Authentication.

We understand that the offer and sale of the Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, and that the Notes may not be offered or sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should sell any Notes, we will do so only (A) to FelCor, FelCor LP or any subsidiary thereof, (B) in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act to a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined therein), (C) to an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined below) that, prior to such transfer, furnishes (or has furnished on its behalf by a U.S. broker-dealer) to you a signed letter substantially in the form of this letter, and, if this letter relates to a proposed transfer in respect of an aggregate principal amount of Notes less than $100,000, an opinion of counsel acceptable to FelCor and FelCor LP that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (D) outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (E) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), or (F) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and we further agree to provide to any person purchasing any of the Notes from us a notice advising such purchaser that resales of the Notes are restricted as stated herein.

     3. We understand that, on any proposed resale of any Notes, we will be required to furnish to you such certifications, legal opinions and other information as you may reasonably require to confirm

     4. We are an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Notes, and we and any accounts for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of our or its investment.

     5. We are acquiring the Notes purchased by us for our own account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an institutional “accredited investor”) as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion.

     You are entitled to rely upon this letter and are irrevocably authorized to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceedings or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby.
