BACKGROUND:

Borrower and Lender are the sole members of MHI/Carlyle Hotel Investment Program I, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the “JV Entity”). The JV Entity is the sole member of each of MHI/Carlyle Sian Owner I, L.L.C., and MHI/Carlyle Sian Lessee I, L.L.C., each a Delaware limited liability company (the “SocGen Borrowers”). The SocGen Borrowers are parties to that certain Loan Agreement between Société Générale New York Branch, the New York branch of a French banking corporation, as lender (“SocGen”), and the SocGen Borrowers, jointly and severally as borrowers, and dated as of August 8, 2007 (as amended from time to time, the “Sian Loan Agreement”). The promissory note evidencing the loan from SocGen to the SocGen Borrowers was split into two notes, Note A and Note B, pursuant to that certain Note Splitter and Modification Agreement by and among the SocGen Borrowers and SocGen, dated as of June 13, 2008. A portion of the loan from SocGen to the SocGen Borrowers is evidenced by that certain Promissory Note B, dated as of June 13, 2008, in the original principal amount of $22,000,000.00, made by the SocGen Borrowers, as maker, for the benefit of SocGen (the “B Note”). SocGen assigned the B Note to MHI/Carlyle B Note Holder I, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“B Note Holder”) pursuant to (i) that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement between SocGen and B Note Holder, dated as of June 13, 2008, and (ii) that certain Allonge Endorsement to Promissory Note by SocGen, dated as of June 13, 2008, for the purchase price of $19,000,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”), paid by B Note Holder to SocGen. The Purchase Price was funded to B Note Holder by a capital contribution (the “Capital Contribution”) to B Note Holder from the JV Entity. The Capital Contribution was seventy-five percent (75%) funded by Lender and twenty-five percent (25%) funded by Borrower (“Borrower’s Contribution”). Borrower has elected to have Lender provide it with a loan in the amount of $4,750,000 (the “Loan”), which is equal to Borrower’s Contribution in accordance with Section 11.6 of that certain Limited Liability Company Agreement of MHI/Carlyle Hotel Investment Program I, L.L.C., between Lender and Borrower, dated as of April 26, 2007, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Limited Liability Company

Agreement of MHI/Carlyle Hotel Investment Program I, L.L.C., between Lender and Borrower, dated as of June 13, 2008 (as amended, the “JV Agreement”). Lender is making the Loan to Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Note and the other Loan Documents (as defined below) and this Note represents and evidences the Loan made by Lender to Borrower.

4

(v) if Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, attempts to assign any of its rights and obligations under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents or any interest herein or therein in contravention of the Loan Documents;

(vi) if Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, shall continue to be in default under any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of any of the Loan Documents not specified in subsections (i) through (v) above, for ten (10) days after notice to Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, from Lender, in the case of any default which can be cured by the payment of a sum of money, or for thirty (30) days after notice from Lender in the case of any other default; provided, however, that if such non-monetary default is susceptible of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period and provided further that Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, shall have commenced to cure such default within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such 30-day period shall be extended for such time as is reasonably necessary for Borrower or Guarantor, as applicable, in the exercise of due diligence to cure such default, such additional period not to exceed ninety (90) days;

Any such actions

taken by Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently, singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.

A waiver of one or more Events of Default with respect to Borrower and/or Guarantor, as applicable, shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Event of Default by Borrower and/or Guarantor, as applicable, or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent thereon. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Lender is not subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all rights, remedies or privileges provided to Lender shall remain in full force and effect until the Loan has been paid in full.
