     (k) Collect and account for and remit to governmental authorities all applicable excise, sales, occupancy and use taxes or similar governmental charges collected by or at the Hotels directly from guests, members or other patrons, or as part of the sales price of any goods, services or displays, such as gross receipts, admission or similar or equivalent taxes, duties, levies or charges (it being understood that any such item is not an Operating Cost except to the extent that such item was included in Gross Revenues).

     (l) Keep Owner advised of events (other than general market conditions) which might reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial performance or value of any Hotel.

     (m) To the extent in Manager’s control, obtain and maintain all approvals necessary to use and operate the Hotels in accordance with the Brand Standards, Operating Standards and Legal Requirements.

     2.2 Conversion of Hotels. The Prime Hotels are to be converted to the Prime Hotels & Resorts brand following the date hereof. Manager shall complete such conversion promptly after the Prime Hotels Effective Date, but in all events on or before June 30, 2004; provided, however, in the event that Manager is unable to complete such conversion on or before such date despite having made all commercially reasonable efforts to do so, such date shall be extended to December 31, 2004 provided that Manager at all times is diligently prosecuting the completion of such conversion. In the interim, the Prime Hotels will operate as Wyndham hotels in accordance with all applicable agreements, and Manager will perform, as an Operating Cost (or, with respect to any one time transfer fees or liquidated damages, from the Reserve Account), Owner’s obligations under such applicable agreements. In connection with operating the Prime Hotels as Wyndam hotels, Manager and/or its employees will enter into such confidentiality agreements as the owner of the Wyndam trademark shall reasonably require.

     2.3 Use of Hotels. Manager shall not use, and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the use of,

17

the Hotels and Owner’s and Manager’s personal property used in connection with the Hotels, if any, for any unlawful purpose or in such a manner as will constitute an unlawful nuisance thereon or therein. Manager shall not commit, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the commission of, any waste at the Hotels. Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the use of the Hotels in such a manner as might reasonably be expected to impair Owner’s or Landlord’s title thereto or any portion thereof or might reasonably be expected to give rise for a claim or claims for adverse use or adverse possession by the public, as such, or of implied dedication of the Hotels or any portion thereof.

     2.4 Right to Inspect. Manager shall permit Owner and its authorized representatives to inspect or show the Hotels during usual business hours upon not less than twenty four (24) hours’ notice, provided that any inspection by Owner or its representatives shall not unreasonably interfere with the use and operation of the Hotels and further provided that in the event of an emergency as determined by Owner in its reasonable discretion, prior notice shall not be required.

     2.5 No Right of Offset. Manager shall not offset against any amounts due to Owner under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents except as may be expressly provided herein; provided, however, prior to January 1, 2006 Manager may offset against amounts due to Owner under this Agreement if Owner shall fail to make any advance required to be made by it under Section 5.3, which failure continues for ten (10) days after notice.

     2.6 Condition of the Hotels. (a) As of the Effective Date for each Hotel, and subject to the terms of Sections 2.6(b) and 2.6(c), Manager acknowledges receipt and delivery of possession of such Hotel, and Manager accepts such Hotel in its “as is” condition as of such date, subject to the rights of parties in possession, the existing title, including all covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases, easements and other matters of record or that are visible or apparent on the Hotels, all applicable Legal Requirements, and such other matters which would be disclosed by an inspection of the Hotels and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey thereof. PROVIDED OWNER PERFORMS ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTIONS 5.3 TO FUND UP TO $25,000,000 AND SUBJECT TO MANAGER’S RIGHT TO USE SUCH FUNDS FOR THEIR INTENDED PURPOSES, MANAGER REPRESENTS THAT: IT HAS INSPECTED THE HOTELS INCLUDING THE FF&E AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF SATISFACTORY; ALL OF THE AMERSUITE HOTELS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE

18

APPLICABLE BRAND STANDARDS IN ALL MATERIAL RESPECTS; EXCEPT FOR CAPITAL REPLACEMENT TO BE MADE FROM TIME TO TIME USING FUNDS TO BE DEPOSITED IN THE RESERVE ACCOUNT PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 5.2(a) and 5.3, MANAGER CURRENTLY DOES NOT ANTICIPATE THE NEED TO MAKE CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS DURING THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF THE TERM (PROVIDED, HOWEVER, SUCH REPRESENTATION IS NOT A GUARANTY OR WARRANTY THAT NO SUCH CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS WILL BE REQUIRED); AND EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 2.6(b) and 2.6(c), IT IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF OWNER, LANDLORD OR ANY OF THEIR AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE MATTERS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 2.6(b) and 2.6(c), MANAGER WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST OWNER AND LANDLORD WITH RESPECT TO THE CONDITION OF THE HOTELS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 2.6(b) and 2.6(c), LANDLORD AND OWNER MAKE NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE HOTELS OR ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO THEIR FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, OR AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT.

     (b) Landlord warrants and represents that: its investigation of the Prime Hotels made in connection with the acquisition of the Prime Hotels was conducted in a manner consistent in all material respects with the standards generally employed by HPT and its Affiliates in connection with their acquisitions of hotel properties; and, based on such investigation, when Landlord acquired the Prime Hotels it believed that the statements in Exhibit C were true with respect to the Prime Hotels in all material respects except as disclosed in the copies of the title reports and policies and environmental reports obtained by Landlord or its Affiliates in connection with its acquisition of the Prime Hotels which have been provided to Manager and/or its counsel or in other materials obtained by Manager or otherwise disclosed in writing to, or known by, Manager.

     (c) Each of Landlord and Owner warrants and represents to Manager that, except as disclosed in the copies of the title reports and policies and environmental reports obtained by Landlord or its Affiliates in connection with its acquisition of the Prime Hotels which have been provided to Manager and/or its counsel and the other materials or obtained by Manager or otherwise disclosed in writing to, or known by, Manager, it has not done anything since the date of its acquisition of the Prime Hotels to cause any of the statements in Exhibit C to be untrue in any material respect as of the Prime Hotels Effective Date.

19

Landlord and Owner shall not do anything between the date hereof and the Prime Hotels Effective Date with respect to the Prime Hotels which causes the statements in Exhibit C to be untrue in any material respect on the Prime Hotels Effective Date.

     (d) The representations and warranties made in this Agreement are made as of the date hereof. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall survive the Effective Dates.

     2.7 Purchasing. In making purchasing decisions with respect to products and services used in the operation of the Hotels, Manager will exercise reasonable business judgment in accordance with the Operating Standards. Manager shall be entitled to contract with its Affiliates, others in whom Manager or its Affiliates has an ownership interest and others with whom Manager or its Affiliates have contractual relationships to provide goods and/or services to the Hotels, provided, that, the prices and/or terms for such goods and/or services are competitive and no worse than the prices and/or terms that would prevail absent such relationship. The Hotels shall be entitled to receive their equitable share of any credits, rebates or commissions received with respect to such purchases. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Manager will act in a manner that is reasonably calculated to enable Owner and the Hotels to gain not less than the same benefits with respect to purchasing as are made available to other hotels of the same category as the Hotels which other hotels are owned or operated by Manager or its Affiliates.

ARTICLE 3

TERM AND RENEWALS

     3.1 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the first Effective Date to occur and shall continue for the Initial Term and any extension of the term hereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided.

     3.2 Renewal Term. The Term may be extended, at Manager’s option, for up to two (2) consecutive periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) of fifteen (15) years each on not less than eighteen (18) months’ prior notice to Owner, and time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice. The terms and provisions of this Agreement will remain in effect as stated herein during any Renewal Term except that Manager shall have no

20

right to extend the Term beyond the Renewal Terms herein provided.

     3.3 Owner’s Termination Right at End of Term. If Manager fails to give notice (or elects not to) to extend or if Manager shall have no further right to extend the Term, at any time during the last eighteen (18) months of the Term, Owner may terminate this Agreement on not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice.

     3.4 Early Termination for Non-Economic Hotels.

     (a) Owner and Manager shall be entitled to jointly designate a Hotel a Non-Economic Hotel. Further, either Owner or Manager shall be entitled to unilaterally designate a Hotel as a Non-Economic Hotel; provided, however, neither Owner nor Manager shall be entitled to unilaterally designate any Hotel as a Non-Economic Hotel (i) prior to January 1, 2006, (ii) if four (4) or more Hotels in the aggregate shall have previously been unilaterally designated as Non-Economic Hotels and (iii) unless the portion of Operating Costs attributable to the Hotel which is to be designated as a Non-Economic Hotel exceeded the portion of Gross Revenues attributable to such Hotel for each of then most recently completed two (2) Fiscal Years. If subsequent to a Hotel being unilaterally designated as a Non-Economic Hotel, the portion of Gross Revenues attributable to such Hotel shall exceed Operating Costs attributable to it in any two (2) Fiscal Years, such Hotel shall cease being a Non-Economic Hotel unless and until it is again designated as such pursuant to the terms hereof.

     (b) If, pursuant to Section 3.4(a), Manager unilaterally designates a Hotel as a Non-Economic Hotel, Manager may market such Non-Economic Hotel for sale until it shall no longer be a Non-Economic Hotel. If Manager receives a bona fide arm’s-length binding unconditional offer to purchase such Non-Economic Hotel from an unrelated third party having the financial capacity to implement the terms of such offer for a purchase price acceptable to Manager and otherwise on customary terms (an “Offer”), Manager shall give Owner and Landlord notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the Offer executed by such third party. In the event that Owner and Landlord shall fail to accept or reject such Offer within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, such Offer shall be deemed to be rejected by them. If Owner and Landlord shall either sell such Non-Economic Hotel pursuant to such Offer, or reject such Offer, effective as of the date of such sale or, if the Offer was rejected or deemed rejected, the proposed date of sale contained

21

in such Offer, as the case may be, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Hotel, and the Owner’s Priority shall be reduced by an amount equal to seven percent (7%) of the net proceeds of sale received by Owner or Landlord or, in the case of such a rejection, the projected net proceeds determined by reference to such Offer.

     (c) If Manager and Owner shall jointly determine to designate a Hotel a Non-Economic Hotel, Manager and Owner shall jointly market such Hotel. Further, if Owner shall unilaterally designate a Hotel a Non-Economic Hotel, Owner shall be entitled to market such Non-Economic Hotel. If Owner and Landlord shall sell any Non-Economic Hotel which has been designated as such either (i) by Manager and Owner jointly or (ii) by Owner unilaterally, in either case, on terms approved by Manager, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, upon the closing of such sale Owner’s Priority shall be reduced by an amount equal to seven percent (7%) of the net sale proceeds realized by Owner and Landlord in connection therewith, and this Agreement shall terminate with respect thereto.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the terms of Section 4.3 of this Agreement shall not apply to any sale of a Non-Economic Hotel pursuant to this Section 3.4.

ARTICLE 4

NON-DISTURBANCE

     4.1 Landlord’s Agreement not to Disturb. Landlord agrees that in the event the Lease terminates prior to expiration or earlier termination of the Term, so long as (i) there exists no uncured Manager Event of Default and (ii) Owner is not otherwise entitled to terminate this Agreement in its entirety pursuant to the terms hereof: (a) Manager shall not be disturbed in its rights under this Agreement by Landlord; (b) Landlord shall assume the obligations of Owner under this Agreement; and (c) Manager shall attorn to Landlord and recognize Landlord as the “Owner” under this Agreement. Landlord shall have the right to assign all of its right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement to a new tenant (a “Substitute Tenant”) to which Landlord shall lease the Hotels (pursuant to a lease which imposes no greater risks on Manager than the Lease (assuming the same had not been terminated) and for a term equal to the unexpired term of this Agreement) which Substitute Tenant shall expressly assume all of Owner’s obligations under this Agreement. Upon such assignment to, and assumption by, a

22

Substitute Tenant, Landlord shall be relieved of all future obligations arising under this Agreement (other than any expressly imposed on Landlord pursuant to Section 4.1 through and including Section 4.5), Manager shall attorn to the Substitute Tenant and recognize the Substitute Tenant as the “Owner” under this Agreement, and the term “Lease” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to such lease between Landlord and the Substitute Tenant.

     4.2 Financing.

     (a) Landlord shall be entitled to encumber the Hotels or any of them with one or more Authorized Mortgages which is expressly subordinate to this Agreement or in connection with which the following terms and conditions are satisfied:

23

     (b) In the event less than all of the Hotels are to secure loan or other debt secured by an Authorized Mortgage, Owner, at its reasonable cost, shall have the right to cause the Pledged Hotels to be managed by Manager pursuant to a separate management agreement which agreement shall be for a term equal to the unexpired portion of the Term and otherwise on substantially the same terms of this Agreement except as otherwise provided herein. In connection with entering into such separate management agreement, the parties shall make appropriate allocations of Owner’s Priority, amounts in the Reserve Account, the Working Capital, and any outstanding advances made by Owner, Manager or their respective Affiliates so that the obligations allocable to the Hotels subject to such Authorized Mortgage shall not be due from the other Hotels and vice versa. The allocation of Owner’s Priority for each Hotel shall be on such reasonable basis as the parties may agree. Without the consent of Manager, the holder of any Authorized Mortgage shall have the right to elect to be subject and subordinate to this Agreement, such subordination to be effective upon such terms and conditions as such holder may

24

direct which are not inconsistent with the provisions hereof and which are reasonably acceptable to Manager.

     4.3 Sale of a Hotel. In the event of a sale or transfer of any Hotel to an Affiliate of Landlord, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without regard to such sale or transfer and such Affiliate shall assume Landlord’s obligations hereunder. The following shall apply each time Landlord sells or otherwise transfers less than all of the Hotels other than to an Affiliate:

     (a) Subject to the execution or delivery of a New Management Agreement as provided below, this Agreement with respect to such Hotel(s) (the “Transferred Hotels”) shall be terminated effective as of the date title is transferred to such Transferred Hotels.

     (b) Simultaneously with such termination, Manager (at Owner’s reasonable cost) and the transferee of the Transferred Hotels or Owner (if the Lease remains in full force and effect with respect to the Transferred Hotels) or any tenant under a new lease with respect to the Transferred Hotels (which new lease shall have a term equal to the then unexpired term of the Lease and shall impose no greater liability, responsibility, or obligation on Manager than the Lease) shall enter into a new management agreement (a “New Management Agreement”) with Manager on substantially the same terms as this Agreement except as otherwise provided herein for a term equal to the unexpired portion of the Term of this Agreement.

     (c) Manager, Landlord and the transferee (or its tenant), acting reasonably, shall allocate amounts in the Reserve Account and the Working Capital between the Transferred Hotels and the other Hotels. The parties shall also make reasonable allocations with respect to Owner’s Priority, and any outstanding advances made by Owner, Manager or their respective Affiliates. Amounts which are allocated to the Transferred Hotels shall be transferred to the transferee thereof to be held by Manager or such transferee (or its tenant) pursuant to the New Management Agreement.

     (d) Following such sale or transfer, Owner, its Affiliates and the Hotels which are not Transferred Hotels shall have no responsibilities with respect to amounts that are so transferred and the transferee, its tenant and their Affiliates and the Transferred Hotels shall have no responsibility with respect to amounts which are not so transferred.

25

     (e) From and after the consummation of such sale or other transfer and compliance with the terms hereof, the term “Hotels” as used herein shall not include the Transferred Hotels.

     (f) Owner shall be responsible to cause its Affiliates, any new tenant and the transferee to execute and deliver the documents contemplated by this Section 4.3 to be executed and delivered by them.

     (g) No transfer or financing of any Hotel shall release or relieve HPT from any of its obligations under the HPT Guaranty.

     4.4 Sale of All the Hotels. If Landlord sells or otherwise transfers all of the Hotels to a single transferee in a single transaction, (a) the transferee shall assume Landlord’s obligations hereunder and (b) Landlord shall be released and relieved from any and all obligation hereunder. In connection with such transfer, Owner may assign this Agreement, to the transferee or its Affiliate, and provided the assignee assumes all of Owner’s obligations hereunder thereafter accruing, Owner shall be released and relieved from all such obligations, and Manager shall be released and relieved from all such obligations to Owner (but not its successor).

     4.5 The Lease. The Lease shall not be amended or modified in any way which would increase Manager’s obligations hereunder or reduce its rights hereunder. In the event of a conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of the Lease, the terms hereof shall govern.

ARTICLE 5

REQUIRED FUNDS

     5.1 Working Capital. Manager shall provide to each Hotel on its Effective Date reasonable levels of Operating Supplies and Working Capital. At any time, from time to time, after the first thirty (30) days after the first Effective Date to occur, upon written notice from Manager, Owner may advance any additional funds, over and above the amounts provided by Manager necessary to pay Operating Costs (but not Owner’s Priority) as they come due. Any such request by Manager shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed explanation of the reasons for the request. All funds so advanced for Working Capital shall be utilized by Manager to pay Operating Costs as they come due. If Owner does not advance such additional Working Capital within five (5) Business Days after notice, Manager, as its exclusive remedy, shall have the right either to (i) advance such

26

additional Working Capital or (ii) terminate this Agreement on ten (10) days’ advance written notice to Owner; provided, however, such notice of termination shall be void ab initio if Owner advances the requested funds necessary to pay Operating Costs prior to the end of the tenth (10th) day after the receipt of such termination notice. If Manager fails to either make such advance or give notice of termination within ten (10) days, after the expiration of such five (5) Business Days, Owner may elect by written notice to Manager to terminate this Agreement, which termination shall be effective ten (10) days after the date such notice is given. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, provided there is no Manager Default, after the payment of all Operating Costs and all amounts owed to Owner, Manager shall be entitled to retain all amounts contributed by it to the Working Capital.

     5.2 Reserve Account.

     (a) Manager shall transfer from the Bank Accounts to the Reserve Account in cash on or before the 20th day of each Fiscal Month, beginning on February 20, 2006 and continuing for each and every month during the Term an aggregate amount equal to the sum of each Hotel’s Reserve Percentage of the portion of Gross Revenues attributable to such Hotel for the prior Fiscal Month. Amounts in the Reserve Account are to pay for Capital Replacements undertaken at the Hotels after their respective Effective Dates required to maintain any and all of the Hotels in accordance with the Operating Standards, the Brand Standards, Insurance Requirements and Legal Requirements; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no additional cost or expense shall be incurred or paid in connection with any Capital Replacements made during the last eighteen (18) months of the Term to the extent attributable solely to complying with Brand Standards. The amounts so paid into the Reserve Account shall be recorded on the Hotels’ books of account as “Reserve for FF&E Replacements.” Except as expressly provided herein, any expenditures for Capital Replacements during any Fiscal Year which have been approved in the yearly Capital Replacements Budget or to make repairs pursuant to Section 7.7(b) may be made without Owner’s further approval and, to the extent available, may be made by Manager from the Reserve Account. Not more than Five Thousand ($5,000) Dollars may be expended by Manager for any single item to be charged against any discretionary or contingency line item in any Capital Replacement Budget, without the consent of Owner, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any amounts remaining in the Reserve Account at the close of each Fiscal

27

Year will be carried forward and retained in the Reserve Account. Any and all portions of the Hotels which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of any major or non-major repairs, renovations, additions, alterations, improvements, removals or replacements at the Hotels shall be disposed of by Manager and any net proceeds thereof shall be deposited in the Reserve Account and not included in Gross Revenues. In addition, any proceeds from the sale of FF&E no longer necessary to the operation of the Hotels shall be added to the Reserve Account. Manager shall be entitled to use funds in the Reserve Account to make Capital Replacements at any and all of the Hotels regardless of the Hotel from which such funds originate.

     (b) Manager shall be the only party entitled to withdraw funds from the Reserve Account unless and until a Manager Default shall occur and be continuing.

     (c) If, at any time after the Prime Hotels Guaranty Commencement Date, the funds in the Reserve Account shall be insufficient for Capital Replacements which are set forth in the Capital Replacement Budget or required to comply with the Operating Standards, Brand Standards, Insurance Requirements or Legal Requirements, Manager shall give Owner written notice thereof, which notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the required action, the estimated cost thereof (including the amount which is in excess of the amount of funds in such Reserve Account) and such other information with respect thereto as Owner may reasonably require. Provided that there is then no uncured Manager Default, Owner shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such notice, disburse (or cause Landlord to disburse) such required funds to Manager for deposit into the Reserve Account. In such event Owner’s Priority shall be adjusted as provided for herein in the definition of Owner’s Priority.

     (d) If Owner shall fail to disburse (or cause Landlord to disburse) funds to Manager for deposit into the Reserve Account in violation of Sections 5.2(c) or 5.3, which failure continues for ten (10) days after the giving of notice from Manager to Owner, in addition to Manager’s other remedies under the HPT Guaranty but as its exclusive remedy hereunder, Manager shall be entitled, to either (i) deposit in the Reserve Account the amount of funds which Owner so failed to disburse or (ii) in the case of a violation of Section 5.3 only, to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Owner; provided, however, such notice shall be void ab initio, as though never given, in the

28

event Owner cures such failure within ten (10) days after the giving of such notice.

     (e) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Manager shall disburse to Owner, or as Owner shall direct, all amounts remaining in the Reserve Account after payments of all expenses on account of Capital Replacements incurred by Manager during the Term.

     5.3 Initial Reserve Advances. Provided there is no uncured Manager Default, Owner shall, or shall cause Landlord to, deposit in the Reserve Account up to Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000) for use by Manager for re-branding and refurbishment capital expenditures pursuant to budgets and schedules approved by Owner as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof on the following terms and condition:

     (a) On or before the Prime Hotels Guaranty Commencement Date, Owner shall, or shall cause Landlord to, deposit in the Reserve Account Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) (to be used in accordance with a budget and schedule therefor).

     (b) Owner shall, or shall cause Landlord to, deposit in the Reserve Account up to an additional Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) in the aggregate (to be used in accordance with a budget and schedule therefor) provided Manager gives notice of the need for such additional funds on or before January 1, 2006 together with an explanation, in reasonable detail, of the reasons why such additional funding is required, the nature of the required action, the estimated cost thereof (including the amount which is in excess of the funds then in the Reserve Account) and such other information with respect thereto as Owner may reasonably require.

     Owner shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to such budgets and schedules, and any dispute regarding whether Owner has unreasonably withheld such consent shall be resolved by Arbitration.

     5.4 Additional Requirements for Reserve. All expenditures from the Reserve Account shall be (as to both the amount of each such expenditure and the timing thereof) both reasonable and necessary given the objective that the Hotels will be maintained and operated in accordance with the Operating Standards, the Brand Standards, Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements.

     5.5 Ownership of Replacements. All Capital Replacements made pursuant to this Agreement and all amounts in the Reserve

29

Account, shall be the property of Owner or Landlord, as applicable, as provided under the Lease.

     5.6 No Additional Contributions. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Owner nor Landlord shall, under any circumstances, be required to, or provide funds to, build or rebuild any improvement at the Hotel, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations, restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the Hotel, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen.

ARTICLE 6

BRAND STANDARDS AND MANAGER’S CONTROL

     6.1 Brand Standards. Manager shall operate each Hotel, as applicable, either as an AmeriSuite or Prime Hotels & Resorts hotel in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the applicable Brand Standards and the Operating Standards. Manager and its affiliates which own the System Marks and Brand Standards reserve the right to revise and amend the System Marks or Brand Standards from time to time on a non-discriminatory basis; provided, however, substantially all of the hotels comprising the Prime Hotel & Resorts brand shall at all times be upscale full-service hotels with appropriate amenities, furnishings and services and substantially all of the hotels comprising the AmeriSuite brand shall at all times be midscale or upscale all-suite limited services with appropriate amenities furnishings and services. Owner also agrees that the Hotels will be required to participate in applicable Brand-wide or area programs that are implemented after the date hereof from time to time by Manager or its Affiliates with respect to the applicable Brand. The allocable cost of participation in such programs (to the extent not duplicative of the services for which the Management Fee is being paid or are not on account of a franchise royalty, management or other similar fee), shall be Operating Costs of the Hotels to the extent the same are consistent in all material respects with the amounts for the same included in the applicable Annual Budget. During the Term, Owner shall not change the brand(s) of the Hotels so long as this Agreement is in full force and effect and there is no Manager Event of Default.

     6.2 Manager’s Control. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall have sole, exclusive and uninterrupted control over the operation of the Hotels. Owner acknowledges that under this Agreement, Owner delegates all authorities and

30

Owner and/or Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Manager in obtaining any such operating licenses or permits; provided, however, any one time unusual expense incurred in connection with the commencement of Manager’s managing of any Hotel in connection therewith shall not be paid as an Operating Cost but shall be paid from the Reserve Account.

FISCAL MATTERS

     (a) Manager shall maintain books and records reflecting the results of Hotel operations on an accrual basis in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts and the Accounting Principles. Owner and Landlord and their respective independent accounting firms and representatives will have the right to examine such books and records of the Hotels at any reasonable time on reasonable notice and to make and retain copies thereof. Manager shall retain, for at least three (3) years after the expiration of each Fiscal Year, reasonably adequate records showing Gross Revenues and applications thereof for the Hotels for such Fiscal Year (which obligation shall survive termination hereof).

     (b) On or before the twentieth (20th) day after the end of each Fiscal Month, Manager shall furnish Owner with detailed operating statements setting forth the results of operations at the Hotels with respect to such month showing for each Hotel, Gross Revenues and the applications and distributions thereof, Rooms Revenues, revenue per available room, occupancy percentage

36

and average daily rate, Operating Costs, together with an Officer’s Certificate. Such statements may be provided electronically to Owner.

     (c) Not less than twenty (20) days prior to the date on which Owner or any of its Affiliates are required to file audited financial statements with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (but in all events on or before February 15 of each year), Manager shall deliver to Owner and Landlord an Officer’s Certificate (the “8.1(c) Statement”) setting forth the totals for each Hotel and for all of the Hotels of Gross Revenues and Operating Costs, the calculation of the distribution pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 10.2 and deposits to, and expenditures from, the Reserve Account together with an audit conducted with respect thereto by Ernst& Young or another so- called “big four” firm of independent certified public accounts selected by Manager and approved by Owner which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The cost of such audit shall be an Operating Cost; provided, however, if Owner shall disapprove of a so-called “big four” firm of independent certified public accountants initially proposed by Manager to perform such audit, and as a result of such disapproval the cost of the audit performed by a different firm approved by Owner exceeds the cost that would have been applicable had the so-called “big four” firm initially proposed by Manager performed such audit, Owner shall pay such excess cost, which excess cost shall not be an Operating Cost.

     (d) If any amounts due to Owner as shown in an Officer’s Certificate or audit provided pursuant to Sections 8.1(f) or 16.4 exceed the amounts previously paid with respect thereto to Owner, Manager shall pay such excess to Owner at such time as the Officer’s Certificate or audit is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date due. If any Management Fee due to Manager as shown on an Officer’s Certificate or audit is less than the amount previously paid to Manager on account thereof, Manager shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Officer’s Certificate or audit is delivered, deposit the overpayment in the Bank Accounts. Manager shall be paid any underpayment of the Management Fee in accordance with Sections 10.1 and 10.2. If the amounts due Owner as shown on the Officer’s Certificate or audit are less than the amount previously paid to Owner with respect thereto, Owner shall promptly deposit (or deliver to Manager who will in turn deposit) the overpayment in the Bank Accounts. In no event shall (i) any amount previously deposited in the Reserve Account be withdrawn therefrom pursuant to this

37

ARTICLE 8 or (ii) distributions of Owner’s Priority be subject to adjustment.

     (e) In addition, Manager shall provide Owner with information relating to the Hotels, Manager and its Affiliates that (i) may be required in order for Owner or its Affiliates to prepare financial statements in accordance with Accounting Principles, stock exchange rules or to comply with any legal requirement including, without limitation, any applicable securities laws and regulations and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s interpretation thereof,(ii) may be required for Owner or any of its Affiliates to prepare federal, state or local tax returns, or (iii) is of the type that Manager customarily prepares for other hotel owners or itself.

     (f) At Owner’s election and at Owner’s cost except as otherwise provided herein, a certified audit of the Hotels’ operations may be performed annually, and after the Expiration Date, by a nationally recognized, independent certified public accounting firm appointed by Owner. In the event that Owner elects to have such an audit performed, Owner must give notice of its election within six (6) months after its receipt of the applicable 8.1(c) Statement. Manager shall pay the cost of any audit revealing an understatement of the distribution pursuant to Section 10.2(h) by more than three percent (3%), and such cost shall not be an Operating Cost. In the event that either no notice of audit is given within said six (6) months, or no audit is in fact commenced within twelve (12) months after receipt of the 8.1(c) Statement, such operating statement will constitute the final statement for that Fiscal Year, deemed to have been approved by Owner.

     (g) The terms of this Section 8.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

     8.2 Annual Budgets.

     (a) As soon as practical after execution of this Agreement and, thereafter, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the first day of each Fiscal Year after the 2004 Fiscal Year, Manager shall submit to Owner for Owner’s approval a proposed Annual Budget for each Hotel including a proposed Capital Replacements Budget for each Hotel for the ensuing full or partial Fiscal Year, as the case may be. Owner’s approval of the Annual Budgets and the Capital Replacements Budgets shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Owner fails to disapprove of a proposed Annual Budget within thirty (30) days after the submission thereof to Owner for its approval, the same shall be

38

deemed approved. Manager will, from time to time not less often than quarterly, issue periodic forecasts of operating performance to Owner reflecting any significant unanticipated changes, variables or events or describing significant additional unanticipated items of income or expense. Manager will provide Owner with the material data and information utilized in preparing the Annual Budgets and the Capital Replacements Budgets or any revisions thereof. Manager will not be deemed to have made any guaranty, warranty or representation whatsoever in connection with the Annual Budgets and the Capital Replacements Budgets, except that the proposed Annual Budgets, including the Capital Replacements Budgets, reflect Manager’s best professional estimates of the matters they describe. Manager shall use its reasonable efforts, subject to the Operating Standards and the applicable Brand Standards, to operate and manage the Hotels in accordance with their Annual Budgets. Until the Annual Budget for the Hotels for 2004 Fiscal Year is agreed upon by the parties, the Hotels will operate pursuant to the 2003 Annual Budget.

     (b) In the event Owner disapproves or raises any objections to the proposed Annual Budget, or any portion thereof, or any revisions thereto, Owner and Manager shall cooperate with each other in good faith to resolve the disputed or objectionable items. If Owner disapproves of a proposed Annual Budget, Owner will disapprove on a specific line-by-line basis to the extent reasonably practical. Any dispute with respect to a proposed Annual Budget which is not resolved by the parties within thirty (30) days after the submission thereof to Owner shall be resolved by Arbitration.

     (c) In the event Owner and Manager are not able to resolve the disputed or objectionable matters raised by Owner in regard to a Annual Budget prior to the commencement of the applicable Fiscal Year, either voluntarily or by means of Arbitration, Manager is authorized to operate the Hotel in accordance with the prior year’s Annual Budget.

     8.3 Bank Accounts.

     (a) The revenues of the Hotels shall be deposited into one or more Bank Accounts. The Bank Accounts will be separate and distinct from any other accounts, reserves or deposits required by this Agreement, and Manager’s designees who are included in the coverage of any required fidelity or similar insurance will be the only parties authorized to draw upon any Bank Account; provided, however, such designees shall only be authorized to

39

draw upon a Bank Account for purposes authorized by the terms of this Agreement.

     (b) So long as this Agreement is in full force and effect and there is no uncured Manager Default, Manager shall have exclusive control of the Bank Accounts. Nothing contained herein is to be construed as preventing Manager from maintaining separate payroll accounts or petty cash funds and making payments therefrom as the same may be customary in the hotel business or the Brand Standards.

     (c) If the net proceeds of the insurance received in connection with a casualty or an Award received in connection with a Condemnation are insufficient to complete the required Repairs, Owner shall have the right (but not the obligation) to contribute (or cause Landlord to contribute) the amount of such insufficiency. If Owner elects not to contribute such insufficiency by notice given to Manager within ten (10) Business Days after a notice given by Manager to Owner reasonably detailing the existence of such insufficiency, the Hotel subject to such casualty or Condemnation shall be deemed Unsuitable for its Permitted Use and the terms of Sections 14.1 or 15.1, as applicable, shall apply.

ARTICLE 15

CONDEMNATION

     15.1 Total Condemnation. If either (x) the whole of a Hotel shall be taken by Condemnation, or (y) a Condemnation of less than the whole of a Hotel renders such Hotel Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Hotel and Owner and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in such Hotel as provided in the Lease, which Award shall belong solely to them. In addition, Manager shall have the right to initiate or participate in such proceedings as it deems advisable to recover any damages to which Manager may be entitled; provided, however, that Manager shall be entitled to retain the award or compensation it may obtain through such proceedings which are conducted separately from those of Owner and Landlord only if such award or compensation does not reduce the award or compensation otherwise available to Owner and Landlord.

     15.2 Partial Condemnation. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of a Hotel such that such Hotel is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Manager shall, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts disbursed by Owner or Landlord, commence promptly and continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of such Hotel so that such Hotel shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements, using the Award made available therefor and any other funds Owner elects to contribute subject to customary terms applicable to advances of construction loans (to the extent applicable) and otherwise on the terms applicable to advanced under Section 14.2.

     15.3 Temporary Condemnation. In the event of any temporary Condemnation of a Hotel or Owner’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall constitute Gross Revenues. For purposes of this Agreement, a Condemnation shall be deemed to be temporary if the period of such Condemnation is not expected to, and does not, exceed twelve (12) months.

     15.4 Effect of Condemnation. Any condemnation which does not result in a termination of this Agreement in accordance with

50

its terms with respect to the applicable Hotel shall not excuse the payment of sums due to Owner hereunder with respect to such Hotel and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to such Hotel.

     16.2 Remedies for Manager Defaults. So long as a Manager Event of Default shall be outstanding, Owner shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Upon such termination, or if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 5.1 or 10.5, Owner shall be entitled to liquidated damages. Owner’s right to receive liquidated damages has been agreed to due to the uncertainty, difficulty and/or impossibility of ascertaining the actual damages suffered by Owner.

     16.3 Remedies for Owner Defaults. Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event Owner fails to perform its obligations hereunder, Manager shall have the right to institute forthwith any and all proceedings permitted by law or equity (provided they are not specifically barred under the terms of this Agreement), including, without limitation, actions for specific performance and/or damages; provided, however, except

55

     (i) Manager shall transfer to Owner the telephone numbers used in connection with the operation of the Hotels (but not any Brand generally).

     (j) Manager shall cooperate with Owner’s or its designees’ efforts to engage employees of the Hotels.

     22.11 Further Compliance with Section 856(d) of the Code. On the date hereof and throughout the Term, the Manager

63

shall qualify as an “eligible independent contractor” as defined in Section 856(d)(9)(A) of the Code. To that end, Manager:

     (a) shall not permit wagering activities to be conducted at or in connection with any Hotel by any person who is engaged in the business of accepting wagers and who is legally authorized to engage in such business at or in connection with such Hotel;

     (b) shall use reasonable efforts to cause each Hotel to qualify as a “qualified lodging facility” under Section 856(d)(9)(D) of the Code;

     (c) shall not own, directly or indirectly or constructively (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(5) of the Code), more than thirty five percent (35%) of the shares of HPT (whether by vote, value or number of shares), and Manager shall otherwise comply with any regulations or other administrative or judicial guidance now or hereafter existing under said Section 856(d)(5) of the Code with respect to such ownership limits; and

     (d) shall be actively engaged (or shall, within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(F) of the Code, be related to a person that is so actively engaged) in the trade or business of operating “qualified lodging facilities” (defined below) for a person who is not a “related person” within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(F) of the Code with respect to HPT or Owner (“Unrelated Persons”). In order to meet this requirement, the Manager agrees that it (or any “related person” with respect to Manager within the meaning of Section 856(d)(9)(F) of the Code) (i) shall derive at least ten percent (10%) of both its revenue and profit from operating “qualified lodging facilities” for Unrelated Persons and (ii) shall comply with any regulations or other administrative or judicial guidance under Section 856(d)(9) of the Code with respect to the amount of hotel management business with Unrelated Persons that is necessary to qualify as an “eligible independent contractor” within the meaning of such Code Section.

     (e) A “qualified lodging facility” is defined in Section 856(d)(9)(D) of the Code and means a “lodging facility” (defined below), unless wagering activities are conducted at or in connection with such facility by any person who is engaged in the business of accepting wagers and who is legally authorized to engage in such business at or in connection with such facility. A “lodging facility” is a hotel, motel or other establishment more than one-half of the dwelling units in which are used on a transient basis, and includes customary amenities

64

and facilities operated as part of, or associated with, the lodging facility so long as such amenities and facilities are customary for other properties of a comparable size and class owned by other owners unrelated to HPT.

     22.12 Adverse Regulatory Event. In the event of an Adverse Regulatory Event arising from or in connection with this Agreement, Owner and Manager shall work together in good faith to amend this Agreement to eliminate the impact of such Adverse Regulatory Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Adverse Regulatory Effect” means any time that a law, statute, ordinance, code, rule or regulation imposes (or could impose in Owner’s reasonable opinion) any material threat to HPT’s status as a “real estate investment trust” under the Code or to the treatment of amounts paid to such Landlord as “rents from real property” under Section 856(d) of the Code. Each of Manager and Owner shall inform the other of any Adverse Regulatory Event of which it is aware and which it believes likely to impair compliance of any of the Hotels with respect to the aforementioned sections of the Code.

     22.13 Commercial Leases. Manager shall not enter into any sublease with respect to any Hotel (or any part thereof) unless Landlord has approved the same in its sole and absolute discretion.

     22.14 Nonliability of Trustees. THE DECLARATIONS OF TRUST ESTABLISHING HPT SUITE PROPERTIES TRUST AND HPTWN PROPERTIES TRUST (COLLECTIVELY, THE “TRUSTS”), COPIES OF WHICH, TOGETHER WITH ALL AMENDMENTS THERETO (COLLECTIVELY, THE “DECLARATIONS”), ARE DULY FILED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF ASSESSMENTS AND TAXATION OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, PROVIDE THAT, AND MANAGER HEREBY AGREES THAT, THE NAMES “HPT SUITE PROPERTIES TRUST” AND “HPTWN PROPERTIES TRUST” REFER TO THE TRUSTEES UNDER THE APPLICABLE DECLARATION COLLECTIVELY AS TRUSTEES, BUT NOT INDIVIDUALLY OR PERSONALLY, AND THAT NO TRUSTEE, OFFICER, SHAREHOLDER, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT OF THE TRUSTS SHALL BE HELD TO ANY PERSONAL LIABILITY, JOINTLY OR SEVERALLY, FOR ANY OBLIGATION OF, OR CLAIM AGAINST, THE TRUSTS. ALL PERSONS DEALING WITH THE TRUSTS, IN ANY WAY, SHALL LOOK ONLY TO THE ASSETS OF THE TRUSTS FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY SUM OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OBLIGATION.

     22.15 Arbitration.

     (a) Whenever in this Agreement it is provided that a dispute is to be resolved by an Arbitration, such dispute shall be finally resolved pursuant to an arbitration before a panel of three (3) arbitrators who will conduct the arbitration

65

proceeding in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by Owner and Manager, the arbitration proceedings will be conducted in New York, New York. All arbitrators appointed by or on behalf of either party shall be independent persons with recognized expertise in the operation of hotels of similar size and class as the Hotels with not less than five (5) years’ experience in the hotel industry. The party desiring arbitration will give written notice to that effect to the other party, specifying in such notice the name, address and professional qualifications of the person designated as arbitrator on its behalf. Within fifteen (15) days after service of such notice, the other party will give written notice to the party desiring such arbitration specifying the name, address and professional qualifications of the person designated to act as arbitrator on its behalf. The two arbitrators will, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, select a third, neutral arbitrator. As soon as possible after the selection of the third arbitrator, and no later than fifteen (15) days thereafter, the parties will submit their positions on each disputed item in writing to the three arbitrators. The decision of the arbitrators so chosen shall be given within a period of twenty (20) days after the appointment of such third arbitrator. The arbitrators must, by majority vote, agree upon and approve the substantive position of either Owner or Manager with respect to each disputed item, and are not authorized to agree upon or impose any other substantive position which has not been presented to the arbitrators by Manager or Owner. It is the intention of the parties that the Arbitrator’s rule only on the substantive positions submitted to them by the parties and the Arbitrators are not authorized to render rulings which are a compromise as to any such substantive position. A decision in which any two (2) arbitrators so appointed and acting hereunder concur in writing with respect to each disputed item shall in all cases be binding and conclusive upon Owner and Manager and a copy of said decision shall be forwarded to the parties.

     (b) If the party receiving a request for Arbitration fails to appoint its arbitrator within the time above specified, or if the two arbitrators so selected cannot agree on the selection of the third arbitrator within the time above specified, then either party, on behalf of both parties, may request such appointment of such second or third arbitrator, as the case may be, by application to any judge of any court in New York County, New York of competent jurisdiction upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the other party of such intent.

66

     (c) If there shall be a dispute with respect to whether a party has unreasonably withheld its consent with respect to a matter for which such party has agreed herein not to unreasonably withhold its consent, such dispute shall be resolved by Arbitration.

     22.16 Estoppel Certificates. Each party to this Agreement shall at any time and from time to time, upon not less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior notice from the other party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to such other party, or to any third party specified by such other party, a statement in writing: (a) certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same, as modified, is in full force and effect and stating the modifications); (b) stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the certifying party (i) there is a continuing default by the non-certifying party in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement, or (ii) there shall have occurred any event which, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become such a default, and, if so, specifying each such default or occurrence of which the certifying party may have knowledge; (c) stating the date to which distributions of Gross Revenues have been made; and (d) stating such other information as the non-certifying party may reasonably request. Such statement shall be binding upon the certifying party and may be relied upon by the non-certifying party and/or such third party specified by the non-certifying party as aforesaid, including, without limitation its and its Affiliates’ lenders and any prospective Landlord or mortgagee of any Hotel.

     22.17 Confidentiality. The parties hereto agree that the matters set forth in this Agreement and the information provided pursuant to the terms hereof are strictly confidential and each party will make every effort to ensure that the information is not disclosed to any outside person or entities (including the press) without the prior written consent of the other party except as may be required by law (including, without limitation, securities laws) and as may be reasonably necessary to obtain licenses, permits, and other public approvals necessary for the refurbishment or operation of the Hotels, or in connection with financing, proposed financing, sale or proposed sale. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties (and each employee, representative, or other agent of the parties) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction, and all
