MERISTAR HOSPITALITY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
UNAUDITED (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

1. ORGANIZATION

General

We own a portfolio of upscale, full-service hotels in the United States and Canada. Our portfolio is diversified by franchise and brand affiliations. As of September 30, 2002, we owned 109 hotels, with 28,099 rooms, all of which are leased by our taxable subsidiaries and managed by Interstate Hotels & Resorts, Inc. Interstate Hotels was created on July 31, 2002 through the merger of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Interstate Hotels Corporation.

We were created on August 3, 1998, when American General Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a real estate investment trust, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its associated entities. In connection with the merger between CapStar and American General, we created MeriStar Hotels (now part of Interstate Hotels), a separate publicly traded company, to be the lessee and manager of nearly all of our hotels.

On January 1, 2001, changes to the federal tax laws governing real estate investment trusts became effective. Those changes are commonly known as the REIT Modernization Act, or RMA. The RMA permits real estate investment trusts to create taxable subsidiaries that are subject to taxation similar to subchapter C-Corporations. Because of the RMA, we have created a number of these taxable subsidiaries to lease our real property. The RMA prohibits our taxable subsidiaries from engaging in the following activities:

    managing the properties they lease (our taxable subsidiaries must enter into an “arms length” management agreement with an independent third-party manager that is actively involved in the trade or business of hotel management and manages properties on behalf of other owners),
    leasing a property that contains gambling operations; and
    owning a brand or franchise.

We believe establishing taxable subsidiaries to lease the properties we own provides an efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interests of property ownership. Our taxable subsidiaries are parties to management agreements with a subsidiary of Interstate Hotels to manage our hotels. Under these management agreements, the taxable subsidiaries pay a management fee to Interstate Hotels for each property. The taxable subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to us under the participating leases. Under the management agreements, the base management fee is 2.5% of total hotel revenue plus incentives payments, based on meeting performance thresholds that could total up to 1.5% of total hotel revenue. All of the agreements, except for four agreements with terms that renew annually, have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at the option of Interstate Hotels, subject to some exceptions.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

We have prepared these unaudited interim financial statements according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have omitted certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accompanying notes and other information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain 2001 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” requires a public entity to report selected information about operating segments in financial reports issued to shareholders. Based on the guidance provided in the standard, we have determined that our business is conducted in one reportable segment. The standard also establishes requirements for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Revenues for Canadian operations totaled $6,166 and $6,716 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Revenues for Canadian operations totaled $16,573 and $18,299 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. We assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows, and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

Our interest rate swap agreements were initially designated as hedges against changes in future cash flows associated with specific variable rate debt obligations. As of September 30, 2002, we had three swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $300,000. All of these swap agreements have been converted to non-hedging derivatives due to our repayment of the floating-rate borrowings they originally hedged and they are currently being marked to market through our statement of operations. We have interest rate exposure going forward as the change in fair value of our non-hedging derivatives will have an impact on our statement of operations. The interest rate swap agreements are reflected at fair value in our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002. For more information regarding our interest rate hedging activities, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” If we enter into these transactions in the future, we will have to evaluate the effects this new standard will have on our financial statements. The provisions of this statement are to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 145 “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13, Technical Corrections”. We plan to adopt this statement on January 1, 2003.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes SFAS No. 121. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 were effective on January 1, 2002 for our financial statements. SFAS No. 144 requires the current and prior period operating results of any asset that has been disposed of, on or after January 1, 2002, including any gain or loss recognized, to be recorded as discontinued operations. In August 2002, we sold three hotels. All operating results, including the loss on disposal, have been recorded as discontinued operations. We have reclassified prior periods to reflect operations of the three hotels as discontinued operations.

3.     AMOUNTS DUE TO/FROM INTERSTATE HOTELS

Due to/from Interstate Hotels and Resorts

In the normal course of managing our hotel properties, Interstate Hotels incurs day to day operating costs which are reimbursed by us. The balance of $9,954 at September 30, 2002, includes management fees due, and reimbursements due for insurance, employee benefits, sales and marketing expenses,

8


 

and other miscellaneous operating expenses. These amounts are normally paid within 30 days.

Pursuant to an intercompany agreement, we and Interstate Hotels provide each other with, among other things, reciprocal rights to participate in certain transactions entered into by each party. In particular, Interstate Hotels has a right of first refusal to become the manager of any real property we acquire. We also may provide each other with certain services. These may include administrative, renovation supervision, corporate, accounting, finance, risk management, legal, tax, information technology, human resources, acquisition identification and due diligence, and operational services, for which Interstate Hotels is compensated in an amount that we would be charged by a third party for comparable services. As of December 31, 2001, Interstate owed us $8,877 for working capital deficits at the RMA lease conversion date and these services.

Note Receivable From Interstate Hotels and Resorts

Under a revolving credit agreement with Interstate Hotels through July 31, 2002, we had the ability to lend Interstate Hotels up to $50,000 for general corporate purposes. The interest rate on this credit agreement was 650 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate.

Interstate Hotels also issued us a term note effective January 1, 2002. This $13,069 term note refinanced outstanding accounts payable Interstate Hotels owed to us. The term loan bore interest at 650 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR. The maturity date was the same as that of the revolving credit agreement. The repayment of the credit agreement and term note were subordinate to Interstate’s bank debt.

In connection with the merger that created Interstate Hotels on July 31, 2002, Interstate Hotels paid $3,000 to reduce its borrowings outstanding on the credit agreement. Also, the credit agreement and term note were amended and combined into a term loan agreement with a principal balance of $56,069 and a maturity date of July 31, 2007. The interest rate remained at 650 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR. This term loan is subordinate to Interstate’s new credit agreement, and the term loan does not allow for any additional amount of further borrowings by Interstate Hotels.

4.     LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consisted of the following:
                 
    September 30, 2002   December 31, 2001
   
 
Senior unsecured notes
  $ 950,000     $ 750,000  
Credit facility
    14,000       224,000  
Secured facility
    315,955       319,788  
Subordinated notes
    205,000       205,000  
Convertible notes
    154,300       154,300  
Mortgage debt and other
    38,550       52,335  
Unamortized issue discount
    (8,151 )     (5,289 )
 
   
     
 
 
  $ 1,669,654     $ 1,700,134  
 
   
     
 

As of September 30, 2002 aggregate future maturities of the above obligations are as follows:
         
2002
  $ 1,914  
2003
    22,188  
2004
    170,669  
2005
    8,665  
2006
    9,407  
Thereafter
    1,456,811  
     
 
 
  $ 1,669,654  
     
 

In February 2002, we issued an additional $200,000 ($196,250, net of discount) aggregate principal amount of 9.13% senior unsecured notes due 2011. We used the proceeds from the issuance of these notes to repay approximately $195,000 of the outstanding balance under our revolving credit agreement. As a result of this financing, we redesignated some swap agreements as non-hedging derivatives. We recognized a $4,735 loss when this amount was transferred out of accumulated other comprehensive income because the debt being hedged was repaid.

In February 2002, we amended our revolving credit agreement. The amendment allowed us to reduce the revolving commitments to below $300,000. In March 2002, we reduced the borrowing capacity on our revolving credit agreement from $310,000 to $150,000. We recognized a $1,529 loss due to the write-off of deferred financing costs related to reducing the borrowing capacity of our revolving credit agreement.

On October 29, 2002, we entered into a new three-year, $100,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The initial interest rate is 30-day LIBOR plus 388 basis points. We repaid the outstanding balance of $14,000 on our previous credit facility in conjunction with closing this facility.

8.     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

As of September 30, 2002, we have granted 481,500 shares of restricted stock to employees. This restricted stock vests ratably over three-year or five-year periods. As a result of issuing this restricted stock, we have $1,571 of unearned stock-based compensation recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002.

As of September 30, 2002, we have granted 925,000 Profits-Only OP Units, or POPs, to some of our employees pursuant to our POPs Plan. These POPs are fixed awards and vest over three-year or four-year periods. As a result of issuing these POPs, we have $3,569 of unearned stock-based compensation recorded as a reduction to stockholders’ equity on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002.

9.     RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES

During 2001, we incurred a restructuring charge of $1,080 in connection with operational changes at our corporate headquarters. The restructuring included eliminating seven corporate staff positions and office space no longer needed under the new structure. During 2002, we applied $156 of lease termination costs against the restructuring reserve. Approximately $236 of the restructuring accrual remains at September 30, 2002.

10.     CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We and certain subsidiaries of MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. (MHOP), our subsidiary operating partnership, are guarantors of senior unsecured notes issued by MHOP. MHOP and certain of its subsidiaries are guarantors of our unsecured subordinated notes. We own a one percent general partner interest in MHOP and MeriStar LP, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, owns approximately a 90 percent limited partner interest in MHOP. All guarantees are full and unconditional, and joint and several. Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q presents supplementary consolidating information for MHOP, including each of the guarantor subsidiaries. This exhibit presents MHOP’s consolidating balance sheets as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, consolidating statements of

operations for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, and consolidating cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.

11.     DISPOSITIONS

On August 1, 2002 we sold three hotels for $25,150, which resulted in a loss on sale of assets of $6,403 ($6,275, net of tax). Revenue and pre-tax income included in discontinued operations for these three hotels were:

  $ (237 )   $ 558     $ 635   $ 2,264  
 
   
     
     
     
 

12.     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 29, 2002, we entered into a new three-year $100,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The initial interest rate is 30-day LIBOR plus 388 basis points. We repaid the outstanding balance of $14,000 on our previous credit facility in conjunction with closing this facility.

On November 6, 2002, we sold one hotel for $12,500. The book carrying value of this hotel at the date of sale was approximately $26,000. In the fourth quarter, we will record a loss on sale from the disposition of this hotel of approximately $13,500.

SFAS No. 144 requires companies to classify long-lived assets as held for sale (as opposed to held for use) as of a balance sheet date if several criteria are met. One of those criteria is that the sale of the asset must be considered probable (that is, likely to occur) as of the balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2002, we did not consider the sale of this asset to be probable and therefore we did not meet the criteria according to SFAS No. 144 to classify this hotel as held for sale on our balance sheet and to reclassify the operations of the hotel to discontinued operations on our statement of operations. We did not consider this sale probable as of September 30, 2002 for the following reasons:

    although we had listed this property to be sold with an independent broker prior to September 30, 2002, we believed the probability of a sale within one year was low. Based on our history of listing assets for possible sale, we expected the listing, bidding, and negotiation process for a possible sale, if any, to be extended;
    the offer to purchase this property was received after the balance sheet date, in mid-October 2002;
    the offer was received from a new prospective buyer with whom we had no previous dealings and therefore it was difficult to assess the potential buyer’s ability or willingness to close a transaction on a timely basis;
    the buyer was not willing to put up a nonrefundable deposit; and
    we did not have an executed sales contract until November 4, 2002.

Based on the reasons above, we did not consider this property as held for sale as of the balance sheet date.

In addition, as of September 30, 2002, we did not consider this property impaired in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144. In situations when the criteria of SFAS No. 144 are met to classify an asset as held for sale after the balance sheet date but before issuance of the financial statements, SFAS No. 144 requires that the asset continue to be classified as held and used in those financial statements when issued. We tested the asset for recoverability on a held and used basis as of the balance sheet date. The estimates of future cash flows used in this test considered the likelihood of possible outcomes that existed at the balance sheet date, including the assessment of the likelihood of the future sale of the asset. We performed the recoverability analysis using a probability-weighted cash flows test to assess the asset for possible impairment. Based on the results of the probability-weighted cash flows test for impairment, the carrying value of this asset would be recoverable as of September 30, 2002; therefore the asset was not considered impaired as of that date.

We sold this asset in light of the severe downturn in the overall economy that has had a negative effect on our operating results, and decreased the amount of cash generated by our operations. We believe we have sufficient free cash flow currently, and project to have adequate cash flow in future periods. Our current and future liquidity is, however, greatly dependent upon our operating results, which are driven largely by overall economic conditions. If the general economic conditions continue to be depressed for an extended period, this would negatively impact our projections of available cash flow and liquidity. In order to maintain our current operating flexibility and establish a further cushion against the slowed economy and future economic and other uncertainties, we are taking several steps to further improve our liquidity. One of these steps is the marketing of non-core assets. We elected to sell this asset principally because of the rapid closing offered by the seller. This allowed us to improve our short-term liquidity and provide an additional cushion against future operating results.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

We own a portfolio of upscale, full-service hotels in the United States and Canada. Our portfolio is diversified by franchise and brand affiliations. As of September 30, 2002, we owned 109 hotels, with 28,099 rooms, all of which were leased by our taxable subsidiaries and managed by Interstate Hotels & Resorts. Interstate Hotels was created on July 31, 2002 through the merger of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Interstate Hotels Corporation.

We were created on August 3, 1998, when American General Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a real estate investment trust, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its associated entities. In connection with the merger between CapStar and American General, we created MeriStar Hotels (now part of Interstate Hotels), a separate publicly traded company, to be the lessee and manager of nearly all of our hotels.

On January 1, 2001, changes to the federal tax laws governing REITs became effective. Those changes are commonly known as the REIT Modernization Act, or RMA. The RMA permits real estate investment trusts to create taxable subsidiaries that are subject to taxation similar to subchapter C-Corporations. We have created a number of these taxable subsidiaries to lease our real property. The RMA prohibits our taxable subsidiaries from engaging in the following activities:

    managing the properties they lease (our taxable subsidiaries must enter into an “arms length” management agreement with an independent third-party manager actively involved in the trade or business of hotel management and manages properties on behalf of other owners);
    leasing a property that contains gambling operations; and
    owning a brand or franchise.

We believe establishing taxable subsidiaries to lease the properties we own provides an efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interests of property ownership. Our taxable subsidiaries are parties to management agreements with a subsidiary of Interstate Hotels to manage our hotels. Under these management agreements, the taxable subsidiaries pay a management fee to Interstate Hotels for each property. Our taxable subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to us under the participating leases. Under the management agreements, the base management fee is 2.5% of total hotel revenue. Interstate Hotels can also earn incentive management fees, based on meeting performance thresholds, of up to 1.5% of total hotel revenue. All of the agreements, except for four agreements with terms that renew annually, have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at the option of Interstate Hotels, subject to some exceptions.

Business Summary

Our results continue to reflect a slowed economy which has caused substantial declines in business and leisure travel demand nationwide. Our group business improved during the first three quarters of 2002 but our transient business continues to be significantly lower than prior to the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and also lower than our initial internal projections for 2002. Overall, our occupancies were ahead of our internal plan for the first three quarters of 2002, but our average daily rate was lower than we projected. We will continue to work with Interstate Hotels to focus on cost reduction and control measures at our hotels. We have also shifted our marketing efforts towards our group and leisure business customers. We expect year-over-year performance measures to improve in the fourth quarter of 2002 and in 2003, but our business is highly dependent upon general economic conditions.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks have had a dramatic effect on the insurance and reinsurance industries. Companies in all industry segments are experiencing increases in premiums and restriction of coverage upon renewal of their insurance programs. Some have experienced an inability to obtain insurance. Our secured facility requires our

13


 

property insurance carriers to be rated AA or better by Standard & Poors, or S&P. Our manager, Interstate Hotels, is responsible for securing property insurance for our properties. In June 2002, Interstate Hotels renewed all expiring programs and obtained coverage from carriers that are appropriately rated by S&P. As the effects of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 are more fully reflected on the financial statements of insurers and reinsurers, however, their ratings may change. If we are unable to maintain insurance that meets our debt covenant requirements and if we are unable to amend or waive those covenants, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and our business. Our total annual property and casualty insurance premiums are approximately $31 million under our renewed policies.

Relationships with Interstate Hotels

Since our formation in 1998, we have had close operating, management and governance relationships with the manager of our hotel properties, MeriStar Hotels (now part of Interstate Hotels). Interstate Hotels manages all of our hotel properties under long-term management contracts. We have shared several key management personnel with Interstate Hotels, and our board of directors has four members who also serve on Interstate Hotels’ board of directors. Due to the merger of Interstate Hotels Corporation and MeriStar Hotels and the resulting increased scale and size of Interstate Hotels, we and Interstate Hotels plan to separate more completely the management teams of the two companies. This separation of management will eliminate all but one shared management position between the two companies. It will allow each company to provide additional, dedicated resources for the management of each respective company. Paul W. Whetsell will remain Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of each company, but we do not expect any other management positions to be shared between the companies. This plan to further separate the management teams will mainly affect the legal, finance and accounting, and development departments. On November 4, 2002, we announced that Donald D. Olinger will join our company as chief financial officer in December. John Emery previously performed the duties of chief financial officer for us. On November 5, 2002, we announced that John Emery, our president and chief operating officer, would resign from those positions. Mr. Emery will continue to serve as president and chief operating officer of Interstate Hotels. Bruce Wiles, who was our chief investment officer, will be our new chief operating officer. Mr. Olinger will also serve as our chief accounting officer. James A. Calder, our current chief accounting officer, will resign from that position. Mr. Calder will continue to serve as chief financial officer of Interstate Hotels. We expect to complete all other separation of management positions by the first quarter of 2003.

Critical Accounting Policies

Preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to the impairment of long-lived assets and the recording of certain accrued liabilities. Some of our estimates are material to the financial statements. These estimates are therefore particularly sensitive as future events could cause the actual results to be significantly different from our estimates.

Our critical accounting policies are as follows:

    Impairment of long-lived assets;
    Estimating certain accrued liabilities; and
    Determining the impact of future interest rate changes on our statement of operations.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset (including property and equipment and all intangibles) may be impaired, we perform an analysis to determine the recoverability of the asset’s carrying value. The carrying value of the asset includes the original purchase price (net of depreciation) plus the cost of all capital improvements (net of depreciation). We make estimates of the undiscounted cash flows from the expected future operations of the asset. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, we write down the asset to estimated fair value and recognize an impairment loss. Any impairment losses we recognize are recorded as operating expenses. We did not recognize any impairment losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. We did recognize an impairment loss of $43.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2001 to write-down certain hotel assets. These write-downs resulted from the negative impact of changes in the economic climate on the value of these assets. Based on current economic conditions and our continuing forecast and outlooks for future periods, we may be required in future periods to recognize additional impairment charges if warranted by then current economic and operational forecasts.

Estimating certain accrued liabilities

Estimates for certain accruals such as real and personal property taxes could have a material effect on our financial statements. Currently, we estimate real and personal property taxes based on a combination of preliminary estimates from

state and local jurisdictions, and historical information. The assessed values of these properties could change significantly from the values or rates we use in our estimates.

Property tax assessments are subject to periodic and often lengthy appeals. For example, in instances where a jurisdiction increases our assessed value, we frequently appeal that assessment. Similarly, when hotel operations are declining, we may appeal an assessment as too high if it is based on past operating results. These appeals of assessed values are subject to a potentially wide range of outcomes. As a result of the economic slowdown and events of September 11, 2001, we have filed a number of appeals for lower assessments. As of September 30, 2002, we had ongoing appeals in several jurisdictions with respect to approximately nine properties. We accrue for property tax liabilities based on what we believe is a reasonable judgment of the most likely outcome of the appeals. We believe our experience in pursuing reductions through the appeals process is very favorable — for example, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 we completed the appeals process for 1997 through 2001 for approximately 25 properties. Of these appeals, three of the larger ones resulted in refunds of approximately $ $2.7 million from taxing authorities. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of these appeals, or their effect on our accruals for such items. Also, actual property tax expense could vary greatly from our estimates used for the current property tax accrual based on a change in the assessed value, a change in the tax rate, and/or a different outcome of the appeals process than we currently expect.

Determining impact of future interest rate changes on our statement of operations

SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” requires a company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and record those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 137 and No. 138 amended certain provisions of SFAS No. 133. We adopted these accounting pronouncements effective January 1, 2001.

Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. We assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

Our interest rate swap agreements were initially designated as hedges against changes in future cash flows associated with specific variable rate debt obligations. As of September 30, 2002, we had three swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $300 million. These swap agreements have been converted to non-hedging derivatives due to our repayment of the floating-rate borrowings they originally hedged and they are currently being marked to market through our statement of operations. We have interest rate exposure going forward as the change in fair value of our non-hedging derivatives will have an impact on our statement of operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, we recognized $1.1 million and $4.2 million of expense, respectively, related to these interest rate swaps. The fair value of these swap agreements is a liability of $6.8 million at September 30, 2002. For more information regarding our interest rate hedging activities, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

FINANCIAL CONDITION

SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 2001

Our total assets decreased by $67.4 million to $2,942.5 million at September 30, 2002 from $3,009.9 million at December 31, 2001 primarily due to:

    depreciation on hotel assets of $86.0 million; and
    the sale of three hotels and the use of the $25.2 million in proceeds to pay down debt; partially offset by
    the $5.6 million increase in accounts receivable due to our accrual of our preferred return on our investment in MeriStar Investment Partners. (We accrue this preferred return although MeriStar Investment Partners is not permitted to pay it in cash until they refinance or re-pay their existing bank debt. We evaluate the collectibility of our preferred return based on the underlying value of the hotel properties. MeriStar Investment Partners’ ability to refinance their bank debt is dependent upon the operations of the hotels and other factors.);
    the $5.1 million increase in prepaid expenses due to increased premiums paid on 2003 insurance policies;
    net additional borrowings by Interstate Hotels of $11.2 million; and
    capital expenditures of $35.8 million at the hotels.

15


 

Total liabilities decreased by $38.0 million to $1,859.5 million at September 30, 2002 from $1,897.5 million at December 31, 2001 due mainly to:

    net payments of long-term debt of $30.5 million;
    a $5.3 million decrease in market value of our derivative instruments;
    a $6.4 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities due to the timing of payments; and
    a $3.9 million decrease in accrued interest due to the semi-annual interest payments on our senior unsecured debt issued in December 2001 and February 2002; partially offset by
    a $10.0 million increase in due to Interstate Hotels primarily due to our quarterly workers compensation and general liability insurance which has not been paid as of September 30, 2002.

Long-term debt decreased by $30.4 million to $1,669.7 million at September 30, 2002 from $1,700.1 million at December 31, 2001 due primarily to:

    $210.0 million of net repayments on our previous revolving credit facility using proceeds of the issuance of senior unsecured notes in February and cash generated by operations;
    $13.8 million of net repayments on our mortgage debt and other; and
    $3.8 million of net repayments on our secured facility; partially offset by
    $200 million ($196.2 million, net of discount) in senior unsecured notes issued in February.

Minority interest decreased by $5.2 million to $84.6 million at September 30, 2002 from $89.8 million at December 31, 2002 due mainly to:

    $6.1 million of net redemptions of operating partnership units for common stock;
    $2.0 million of current year net losses allocated to minority interest holders; partially offset by
    $3.3 million of POPs awarded to certain employees.

Stockholders’ equity decreased $24.2 million to $998.4 million at September 30, 2002 from $1,022.6 million at December 31, 2001 due primarily to:

    $36.4 million of net loss for the first three quarters of 2002; and
    $3.3 million of POPs awarded to certain employees; partially offset by
    $6.1 million of net redemptions of operating partnership units for common stock;
    $3.1 million of exercised stock options; and
    a $5.4 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss due mainly to the conversion of our swap agreements to non-hedging derivatives.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001

The following table provides our hotels’ operating statistics on a same store basis for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.
                         
    2002   2001   Change
   
 
 
Revenue per available room
  $ 60.95     $ 64.36       (5.3 )%
Average daily rate
  $ 94.36     $ 97.79       (3.5 )%
Occupancy
    64.6 %     65.8 %     (1.8 )%

Overall, the lingering softness of the United States economy and the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks had a negative effect on our hotels during the third quarter of 2002. This effect is evidenced by lower than anticipated transient business travel. This is reflected in the 3.5% reduction in average daily rate and the 1.8% reduction in occupancy in the third quarter 2002 compared to 2001. Our group and leisure business has been stronger than transient business travel in most markets. We have shifted our marketing efforts towards these customer groups.

Total revenue decreased $8.2 million to $235.8 million in 2002 from $244.0 million in 2001 primarily due to:

16


 

    a $6.6 million decrease in room revenue due to a decrease in average daily rate; and
    a $1.8 million decrease in lease revenue following the termination of our hotel leases with Prime Hospitality.

Total operating expenses decreased $3.9 million to $227.1 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $231.0 million for the same period in 2001 due primarily to:

    a $1.8 million decrease in room expenses due to lower occupancy;
    a $4.3 million decrease in property taxes, insurance and other due to a $3.4 million decrease in property taxes and a $0.4 million decrease in leases;
    $2.0 million in costs associated with a proposed merger with Felcor during 2001; and
    $1.1 million restructuring costs during 2001; partially offset by
    a $1.5 million increase in depreciation and amortization expenses;
    a $2.5 million increase in administrative and general expenses due primarily to a $2.0 million increase in sales and marketing expense; and
    a $1.1 million increase in expense for non-hedging derivatives for the three months ended September 30, 2002 due to our three swap agreements being converted to non-hedging derivatives in 2002.

Expense for non-hedging derivatives represents the change in fair value of our non-hedging derivatives, net of cash payments to the counterparty.

Interest expense increased $2.4 million to $33.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $31.4 million for the same period in 2001 due primarily to the issuance of $250 million of senior secured notes in December 2001 and $200 million of senior secured notes in February 2002 at fixed rates greater than the variable rate of the debt that was repaid.

In the third quarter of 2002, we sold three hotels and received $25.2 million. This resulted in a loss on the sale of assets of $6.3 million, net of tax.

In the third quarter of 2001, we sold one hotel and received $2.4 million. The sale resulted in a loss of $1.1. million net of tax.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001

The following table provides our hotels’ operating statistics on a same store basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.
                         
    2002   2001   Change
   
 
 
Revenue per available room
  $ 66.24     $ 75.19       (11.9 )%
Average daily rate
  $ 100.56     $ 108.01       (6.9 )%
Occupancy
    65.9 %     69.6 %     (5.3 )%

Overall, the slowing United States economy had a major negative effect on our hotels during the first three quarters of 2002 compared to the first three quarters 2001. This effect is evidenced by a sharp reduction in transient business travel. This is reflected in the 6.9% reduction in average daily rate and the 5.3% reduction in occupancy in the first three quarters 2002 compared to 2001. Our group and leisure business has been stronger than transient business travel in most markets. We have shifted our marketing efforts towards these customer groups.

Total revenue decreased $80.1 million to $767.5 million in 2002 from $847.6 million in 2001 primarily due to:

    a $56.4 million decrease in room revenue due to a decrease in occupancy and average daily rate;
    a $10.9 million decrease in food and beverage revenue due to a decrease in occupancy;
    a $6.8 million decrease in other operating departments due to a decrease in occupancy; and
    a $8.1 million decrease in lease revenue following the termination of our hotel leases with Prime Hospitality.

Total operating expenses decreased $34.3 million to $698.5 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $732.8 million for the same period in 2001 due primarily to:

17


 

    a $12.0 million decrease in room expenses due to lower occupancy;
    a $9.1 million decrease in food and beverage expenses due to lower occupancy;
    a $7.0 million decrease in property operating costs due primarily to a $3.5 million decrease in franchise costs, a $2.0 million decrease in energy costs and a $1.9 million decrease in management fees;
    a $4.3 million decrease in property taxes, insurance and other due to a $5.4 million decrease in property taxes and a $0.6 million decrease in leases partially offset by a $2.8 million increase in property and general liability insurance;
    $9.3 million in swap termination fees during 2001;
    a $2.1 million write down of investment in STS Hotel Net during 2001;
    $5.8 million in costs associated with a proposed merger with Felcor during 2001;
    $1.1 million of restructuring costs during 2001; and
    $1.3 million of costs to terminate leases with Prime Hospitality Corporation; partially offset by
    a $4.7 million loss on fair value of non-hedging derivatives in 2002 due to the repayment of debt that was originally hedged;
    a $1.5 million write-off of deferred costs due to the reduction in our borrowing capacity on our revolving credit agreement in 2002;
    a $5.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense;
    a $2.3 million increase in administrative and general expenses due primarily to a $2.9 million increase in sales and marketing expense; and
    a $4.2 million increase in expense for non-hedging derivatives for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 due to our three swap agreements being converted to non-hedging derivatives in 2002.

Interest expense increased $10.8 million to $102.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $91.7 million for the same period in 2001 due primarily to the issuance of $250 million of senior secured notes in December 2001 and $200 million of senior secured notes in February 2002 at fixed rates greater than the variable rate of the debt that was repaid.

In the third quarter of 2002, we sold three hotels and received $25.2 million. This resulted in a loss on the sale of assets of $6.3 million, net of tax.

In 2001, we paid down $300 million of term loans under our previous senior revolving credit facility. This resulted in an extraordinary loss of $1.2 million, net of tax.

In 2001, we sold two hotels and received $9.7 million. This resulted in a loss on the sale of assets of $2.1 million, net of tax.

Funds from Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts or NAREIT defines Funds from Operations, or FFO as net income (loss), computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, also called GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after comparable adjustments for our portion of these items related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Extraordinary items under GAAP are excluded from the calculation of FFO. We believe FFO is helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT because, along with cash flow from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors with an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indication of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. FFO may include funds that may not be available for management’s discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties.

We use comparative FFO as a measure of our performance. Comparative FFO represents FFO, as defined above, adjusted for the impact of non-hedging derivatives and significant non-recurring items. The following is a reconciliation between income (loss) before loss on the sale of assets and extraordinary items and comparative FFO on a diluted basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands):

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources of Cash

We generated $48.5 million of cash from operations during the first nine months of 2002. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and funds from external borrowings and debt offerings. We expect to fund our continuing operations through cash generated by our hotels. We also use the periodic sales of non-core assets to generate cash. On November 6, we sold one hotel for $12.5 million, see footnote 12 of our condensed consolidated financial statements. On October 29, 2002 we entered into a new $100 million revolving credit facility, under which, as of November 12, 2002, $100.0 million was available.

We also expect to finance hotel acquisitions, hotel renovations and joint venture investments through a combination of internally generated cash, external borrowings, potential proceeds from the sale of non-core assets and the issuance of OP Units and/or common stock.

Factors that may influence our liquidity include:

    factors that affect our results of operations, including general economic conditions, demand for business and leisure travel, public concerns about travel safety and other operating risks described under the caption, “Risk Factors—Operating Risks” in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K;
    factors that affect our access to bank financing and the capital markets, including interest rate fluctuations, operational risks and other risks described under the caption “Risk Factors—Financing Risks” in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K; and
    the other factors described under the caption, “Forward-Looking Statements.”

We must distribute to stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income, excluding net capital gains to preserve the favorable tax treatment accorded to real estate investment trusts under the Internal Revenue Code. We expect to fund such distributions through cash generated from operations and borrowings on our credit agreement. Due to the sluggish economy, we expect our taxable income to decrease in 2002 compared to 2001. Any future distributions will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be determined by factors including our operating results, restrictions imposed by our borrowing agreements, capital expenditure requirements, the economic outlook, the Internal Revenue Service dividend payout requirements for REITs and such other factors as our Board of Directors deems relevant. The timing and amount of any future distributions is dependent upon these factors, and we cannot provide assurance of the amounts of any such distributions that we may make in the future.

Uses of Cash

We used $12.8 million of cash in investing activities during the first nine months of 2002 primarily for:

    $7.0 million of notes receivable from Interstate Hotels; and
    $35.8 million of capital expenditures at hotels; partially offset by
    $25.2 million of net proceeds related to the sale of three hotels; and
    a $4.9 million change in restricted cash.

We used $34.4 million of cash from financing activities during the first nine months of 2002 primarily for:

    $30.5 million of net payments on our credit facilities;
    $3.4 million for additional deferred financing costs related to issuing the $200 million of senior unsecured notes in February 2002 and the $250 million senior unsecured notes in December 2001;
    $2.5 million of distributions to stockholders and minority investors; partially offset by
    $3.2 million of proceeds from issuances of common stock as a result of stock option conversions;

Capital Structure Plan

The severe downturn in the overall economy has had a negative effect on our operating results, and decreased the amount of cash generated by our hotel operations. Based on current expectations, we believe we have sufficient free cash flow currently, and project to have adequate cash flow in the next twelve months. Our current and future liquidity is, however, greatly dependent upon our operating results, which are driven largely by overall economic conditions. If the general economic conditions continue to be depressed for an extended period, this would negatively impact our projections of available cash flow and liquidity. In

20


 

order to maintain our operating flexibility and establish a further cushion against the slowed economy, we are taking several steps to further improve our liquidity. These steps include:

    Marketing of non-core assets — we are marketing eight to 10 non-core assets for sale. If these properties are sold, we expect to generate net proceeds of $80 million to $100 million which will be used to pay down outstanding debt. Our ability to realize these estimated proceed amounts is, however, dependent upon finding qualified buyers willing to pay a purchase price that we consider reasonable. We can give no assurance about the ultimate timing of these sales. On November 6, 2002, we sold one hotel for $12.5 million, see footnote 12 of our condensed consolidated financial statements.
    Discussions on repayment of note receivable from Interstate Hotels - we are currently in discussions with Interstate Hotels about possible early repayment of their $56.1 million note payable to us. Interstate Hotels’ ability to repay this note would, however, be dependent on their ability to find an alternative source of funds to provide cash for a repayment. An early repayment of the note, if completed, would likely be at a discount to the current face amount of the note. We have not reached a conclusion as to what, if any, discount we would accept.
    Establishing new senior unsecured revolving credit facility — in October 2002, we entered into a new revolving credit facility. As a result of the refinancing the credit facility, we have no significant maturities until October 2004 and have approximately $50.0 of available borrowing capacity currently.
    Deferral of certain capital expenditures — we will also be shifting the majority of our 2003 planned capital expenditures to the second half of the year to allow us to better forecast our operations for the year. This deferral could have a negative effect on our properties in their markets.

We believe the combination of these items will help maintain our liquidity. To reduce the overall amount and cost of our debt, we may also look to repurchase some of our currently outstanding debt. Any such transactions, however, are subject to limits and restrictions imposed by our borrowing arrangements.

Long-Term Debt

Our revolving credit agreement contains customary compliance measures we must meet to borrow on the facility. At September 30, 2002, we did not meet some of our compliance measures in that facility. However, on October 29, 2002, we entered into a new $100 million revolving credit facility. This facility contains debt covenants with which we must comply. Our compliance with these covenants in future periods will depend substantially on the financial results from our hotels. If we fail to meet a future compliance measure, the availability of funds under our credit facility might be restricted. We do not, however, currently believe a restriction would have a material impact on our operations, due to the fact that we expect to generate sufficient cash flow from operations for our operating purposes.

In February 2002, we issued $200 million ($196.2 million, net of discount) aggregate principal amount of 9.13% senior unsecured notes due 2011. We used the proceeds from the issuance of these notes to repay approximately $195.0 million of the outstanding balance under our previous senior credit agreement. As a result of this financing, we redesignated some swap agreements as non-hedging derivatives. We recognized a $4.7 million loss when this amount was transferred out of accumulated other comprehensive income because the debt being hedged was repaid.

In February 2002, we amended our revolving credit agreement. The amendment allows us to reduce the revolving commitments to below $300 million. In March 2002, we reduced the borrowing capacity on our previous senior credit agreement from $310 million to $150 million. We recognized a $1.5 million loss due to the write-off of deferred financing costs related to this reduction in our borrowing capacity.

On October 29, 2002, we entered into a new three-year $100 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The initial interest rate is the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 388 basis points. We repaid the outstanding balance of $14.0 million on our previous credit facility in conjunction with closing this facility.

Minimum payments due under our debt obligations as of September 30, 2002 are (in thousands):

       
2002
  $ 1,914
2003
    22,188
2004
    170,669
2005
    8,665
2006
    9,407
Thereafter
    1,456,811
 
   
 
  $ 1,669,654
 
   

21


 

As of November 12, 2002, we had no indebtedness outstanding under our new revolving credit agreement.

Capital Resources

We make ongoing capital expenditures in order to keep our hotels competitive in their markets. We expect a combination of internally generated cash and external borrowings to provide capital for renovation work. We expect to spend approximately 4% of annual hotel revenues for ongoing capital expenditure programs. These ongoing programs will include room and facilities refurbishments, renovations, and furniture and equipment replacements. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, we spent $35.8 million on capital expenditures. We expect to spend $12.0 to $14.0 million during the last quarter of 2002 for our ongoing capital expenditure programs and approximately $40.0 to $50.0 million in 2003.

We believe cash generated by operations, together with anticipated borrowing capacity under our senior credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our existing working capital requirements, ongoing capital expenditures, and debt service requirements. We believe, however, that our future capital decisions will also be made in response to specific acquisition and/or investment opportunities, depending on conditions in the capital and/or other financial markets.

Seasonality

Demand in the lodging industry is affected by recurring seasonal patterns. For non-resort properties, demand is lower in the winter months due to decreased travel and higher in the spring and summer months during peak travel season. For resort properties, demand is generally higher in winter and early spring. Since the majority of our hotels are non-resort properties, our operations generally reflect non-resort seasonality patterns. We generally have lower revenue, operating income and cash flow in the first and fourth quarters and higher revenue, operating income and cash flow in the second and third quarters. These general trends are, however, greatly influenced by overall economic cycles.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on long-term debt obligations that impact the fair value of these obligations. Our policy is to manage interest rates through the use of a combination of fixed and variable rate debt. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow at a combination of fixed and variable rates, and may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps and treasury locks in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. We have no cash flow exposure due to general interest rate changes for our fixed long-term debt obligations.

The table below presents, as of September 30, 2002, the principal amounts (in thousands of dollars) for our fixed and variable rate debt instruments, weighted-average interest rates, and fair values by year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes.

Upon the issuance in February 2002 of $200 million aggregate principal amount of 9.13% senior unsecured notes due 2011, we reduced the borrowings under our previous senior secured credit agreement by $195.0 million. As a result of this financing, we redesignated two swap agreements as non-hedging derivatives. These swap agreements had notional principal amounts of approximately $200 million and were originally designated to hedge variable rate borrowings under our senior secured credit facility that were repaid. We recognized a $4.7 million loss when this amount was transferred out of accumulated other comprehensive income because the debt being hedged was repaid.

As of September 30, 2002, we had three swap agreements with notional principal amounts totaling $300 million. All of these swap agreements have been converted to non-hedging derivatives. The swap agreements effectively fix the 30-day LIBOR between 4.77% and 6.4%. The swap agreements expire between December 2002 and July 2003. For the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, we have made net payments of approximately $3.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, we have made net payments of approximately $9.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2002, 99% of our debt was fixed and our overall weighted average interest rate was 8.6%.

Although we conduct business in Canada, the Canadian operations were not material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. Additionally, foreign currency transaction gains and losses were not material to our results of operations for the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. Accordingly, we were not subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risk from the effects that exchange rate movements of foreign currencies would have on our future costs or on future cash flows we would receive from our foreign subsidiaries. To date, we have not entered into any significant foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that the information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief accounting officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-1(c). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives, and management was required to apply its judgement in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Also, we have investments in certain unconsolidated entities. As we do not control or manage these entities, our disclosure controls and procedures with respect to the these entities are substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries.

Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief accounting officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, it was concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

     (a)  Revolving Advances. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees at any time and from time to time on any Business Day up to fifteen (15) days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date to make Revolving Advances; provided that Revolving Advances shall not be made (or be required to be made) by any Lender on any date if, after giving effect thereto, (i) such Lender’s Revolving Share of the Revolving Exposure would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment at such time, or (ii) the Revolving Exposure would exceed the Revolving Availability at such time; provided that for purposes of the definition of Revolving Availability only, the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 7.25 until a Designated Event occurs.

each Lender in an aggregate principal amount that is equal to the product of (a) the Revolving Share of such Lender on the Term Loan Conversion Date times (b) the Term Loan Conversion Amount.

Prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, there shall be only one Term Loan Conversion Date. On the Term Loan Conversion Date, the conversion referred to in this Section 2.01(b) shall occur automatically and without the taking of further action by redesignating (as compared to repaying and borrowing) outstanding Revolving Advances in the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Conversion Amount as Term Advances (i) first, Adjusted Base Rate Advances, and (ii) second, Eurodollar Rate Advances as Borrower shall designate, and failing such designation, having an Interest Period ending furthest from the Term Loan Conversion Date. The conversion referred to in this Section 2.01(b) shall occur regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists or whether the conditions precedent to each Borrowing set forth in Section 3.02 are then satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the occurrence of the Term Loan Conversion Date.

In connection with any such increase in the Revolving Commitments the parties

-34-


 

  shall execute any documents reasonably requested in connection with or to evidence such increase, including without limitation an amendment to this Agreement.

       (ii) On the date (the “Funding Date”) designated by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders whose Revolving Commitments have increased in connection with such increase in the Revolving Commitments shall fund to the Administrative Agent such amounts as may be required to cause each of them to hold its Revolving Share of Revolving Advances based upon the Revolving Commitments as of such Funding Date, and the Administrative Agent shall distribute the funds so received to the other Lenders in such amounts as may be required to cause each of them to hold its Revolving Share of Revolving Advances as of such Funding Date. The Lenders receiving such amounts to be applied to Eurodollar Rate Advances may demand payment of the breakage costs under Section 2.08 as though Borrower had elected to prepay such Eurodollar Rate Advances on such date and the Borrower shall pay the amount so demanded as provided in Section 2.08. The first payment of interest and letter of credit fees received by the Administrative Agent after such Funding Date shall be paid to the Lenders in amounts adjusted to reflect the adjustments of their respective Revolving Shares of the Revolving Advances as of the Funding Date. On the Funding Date each Lender shall be deemed to have either sold or purchased, as applicable, participations in the Letter of Credit Exposure sold to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(b) so that upon consummation of all such sales and purchases each Lender holds participations in the Letter of Credit Exposure equal to such Lender’s Revolving Share of the total Letter of Credit Exposure as of such Funding Date.

     (b)  Conversions and Continuations. In order to elect to Convert or continue Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under this Section, the Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Conversion or Continuation to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office no later than 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) (i) on the date which is at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion or continuation date in the case of a Conversion to or a continuation of a Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances and (ii) on the Business Day prior to the proposed Term Loan Conversion Date in the case of a Conversion to a Borrowing comprised of Adjusted Base Rate Advances.

For purposes other than the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the portion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing that are Converted to Advances of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing. If the Borrower shall fail to specify an Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Advance including the continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Adjusted Base Rate Advance. Under no circumstances may the Borrower convert one Class of Borrowing into another Class of Borrowing; provided that the conversion of Revolving Advances to Term Advances pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.01(b) may occur, and in connection therewith no Notice of Conversion or Continuation is required.

     (c)  Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in paragraphs (a) and (b) above:

       (vi) if any Lender shall, at any time prior to the making of any requested Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances, then such Lender’s Revolving Share or Term Share, as applicable, of such Borrowing shall be made as an Adjusted Base Rate Advance, provided that such Adjusted Base Rate Advance shall be considered part of the same Borrowing and interest on such Adjusted Base Rate Advance shall be due and payable at the same time that interest on the Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising the remainder of such Borrowing shall be due and payable; and such Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender;

       (vii) if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be an Adjusted Base Rate Advance;

       (viii) if the Required Lenders shall, at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or funding their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be an Adjusted Base Rate Advance; and

       (ix) if the Borrower shall fail to select the duration or continuation of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01 and paragraph (a) or (b) above, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Adjusted Base Rate Advances or, if an existing Advance, Converted into Adjusted Base Rate Advances.

-37-


 

     (d)  Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, out-of-pocket cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any condition precedent for Borrowing set forth in Article III not being satisfied for any reason, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

     (e)  Administrative Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender before the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Revolving Share or Term Share, as applicable, of the Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its Revolving Share or Term Share, as applicable, of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made its Revolving Share or Term Share, as applicable, of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to immediately repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest on such amount, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable on each such day to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising such Borrowing.

     (f)  Lender Obligations Several. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

     (g)  Notes. The indebtedness of the Borrower to each Lender resulting from Revolving Advances owing to such Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Note of the Borrower payable to the order of such Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1. If the Term Loan Conversion Date occurs, the indebtedness of the Borrower to each Lender resulting from Term Advances owing to such Lender shall be evidenced by a Term Note of the Borrower payable to the order of such Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 executed and delivered within two (2) Business Days of the Term Loan Conversion Date.

     Section 2.03 Fees.

-38-


 

     (a) Commitment Fees. For the period from the Effective Date until the Revolving Maturity Date the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender with a Revolving Commitment a commitment fee on the average daily amount by which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Share of the Revolving Exposure at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day and excluding the last, based upon a 360-day year). Such fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears (i) on the date which is 30 days following the end of the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (ii) on the Revolving Maturity Date.

     (b)  Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders with a Revolving Commitment, fees in respect of all Letters of Credit outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day and excluding the last, based upon a 360-day year) on the average daily amount of the aggregate undrawn maximum amount of each Letter of Credit outstanding, payable in arrears (i) on the date which is 30 days following the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (ii) on the Maturity Date. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fee on the average daily amount of the aggregate undrawn maximum amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to one eighth of one percent (.125%), such fees due and payable quarterly in arrears (i) on the date which is 30 days following the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (ii) on the Revolving Maturity Date.

     (c)  Fee Letter. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of Société Générale and SG Cowen, as applicable, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter payable to such Persons as and when the same are due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the upfront fees payable to the Lenders set forth in the Fee Letter on the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter.

     Section 2.04 Reduction of the Revolving Commitments.

     (a)  Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in the Parent or the Borrower, then, in such event the Required Lenders may, at their sole option upon written notice to the Borrower (a “Termination Notice”), declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances and the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue, increase, or extend Letters of Credit to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate and the Revolving Commitments shall reduce to zero.

     (b) The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, permanently terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) no such reduction shall result in an overdraft status as provided in Section 2.07(c)(ii), and (iii) no such reduction shall result in the total aggregate Revolving Commitments of the Lenders being less than $50,000,000.

-39-


 

     Section 2.05 Repayment of Advances on the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of each Advance on the applicable Maturity Date.

     Section 2.06 Interest, Late Payment Fee. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made by each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

     (a)  Adjusted Base Rate Advances. If such Advance is an Adjusted Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum (computed on the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day and excluding the last, based on a 365 day year) equal at all times to the lesser of (i) the Adjusted Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) the Maximum Rate, payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month and on the date such Adjusted Base Rate Advance shall be paid in full, provided that during the continuance of an Event of Default, Adjusted Base Rate Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of (i) the rate required to be paid on such Advance immediately prior to the date on which such amount becomes due plus three percent (3%) and (ii) the Maximum Rate.

     (b)  Eurodollar Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum (computed on the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day and excluding the last, based on a 360 day year) equal at all times during the Interest Period for such Advance to the lesser of (i) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) the Maximum Rate, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period, and on the date such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be paid in full, and, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Advances having an Interest Period in excess of 30 days, the first day of each calendar month during such Interest Period excluding the month in which such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be paid in full; provided that during the continuance of an Event of Default, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of (i) the rate required to be paid on such Advance immediately prior to the date on which such amount became due plus three percent (3%) and (ii) the Maximum Rate.

     (c)  Usury Recapture. In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement or the Notes at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Notes equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Notes if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Notes, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Notes is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have been charged on the Notes if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the Notes if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement on the Notes. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by law,

-40-


 

be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Notes, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.

     (d)  Other Amounts Overdue. If any amount payable under this Agreement other than the Advances is not paid when due and payable, including without limitation, accrued interest and fees, then such overdue amount shall accrue interest hereon due and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus three percent (3%), from the date such amount became due until the date such amount is paid in full.

     (e)  Late Payment Fee. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.14, if any interest payable under this Agreement is not paid when due and payable (after taking into account any applicable grace period), then the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders contemporaneously with the payment of such past due interest a late payment fee equal to an amount equal to the product of (i) such overdue interest times (ii) four percent (4%).

     Section 2.07 Prepayments.

     (a)  Right to Prepay The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance except as provided in this Section 2.07.

     (b)  Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may elect to prepay any of the Advances, after giving by 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) (i) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, at least three Business Days’ or (ii) in case of Adjusted Base Rate Advances, at least one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the Class or Classes to be repaid, the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment, and if applicable, the relevant Interest Period for the Advances to be prepaid. If any such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, and shall also pay accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $100,000.

     (c)  Mandatory Prepayments.

       (i) Change of Control. On the fifth Business Day following the Borrower’s receipt of a Termination Notice pursuant to Section 2.04(a) hereof, the Borrower shall be required to prepay all outstanding Advances in full and to deposit with the Administrative Agent into the Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Exposure.
 
       (ii) Overdraft. On any date on which the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Exposure exceeds the aggregate Revolving Availability, the Borrower agrees to make a prepayment of the Revolving Advances in the amount of such excess.
 
       (iii) Repayment Event. Upon the occurrence of any Repayment Event, the Borrower shall prepay Advances on the Business Day the Net Cash Proceeds from such Repayment Event are received by the Borrower or the Parent, as applicable, in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of the outstanding Advances on such Business Day

-41-


 

  and (B) 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Repayment Event. If, in connection with an Asset Disposition which qualifies as a Repayment Event for which the Borrower has not used the Net Cash Proceeds to repay the Obligations, the Borrower has failed to make an Investment or Investments in the Hospitality/Leisure-Related Business with such Net Cash Proceeds within one year from the date of such Asset Disposition, then the Borrower shall prepay Advances on the first anniversary of the Business Day such Net Cash Proceeds are received by the Borrower or the Parent, as applicable, in the amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount of the outstanding Advances on such first anniversary and (B) 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Repayment Event which have not been used to make an Investment or Investments in the Hospitality/Leisure-Related Business. Any Net Cash Proceeds utilized to repay Advances will be applied in the following order: (a) first, to repay the outstanding principal of Term Advances, and (b) second, to repay the outstanding principal of Revolving Advances.
 
       (iv) Accrued Interest. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.07(c) shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date.

       (v) Avoidance of Breakage Costs. In the event that the amount of any mandatory prepayment of Advances under this Section 2.07(c) exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Advances in any Class which consist of Adjusted Base Rate Advances (the amount of such excess being the “Excess Amount“), the Borrower shall have the right, in lieu of making such prepayment in full, to prepay such outstanding Advances which are Adjusted Base Rate Advances and to deposit an amount equal to the Excess Amount with the Administrative Agent in the Cash Collateral Account maintained by and in the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders. Any amount so deposited shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the Obligations, earn interest on behalf of the Borrower and be applied to the prepayment of Advances which are Eurodollar Rate Advances at the end of the current Interest Period(s) applicable thereto. On any day on which amounts collected in the Cash Collateral Account remain on deposit in or to the credit of the Cash Collateral Account after giving effect to the payment made on such day pursuant to this Section 2.07(c), and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a written request or a telephonic request (which shall be promptly confirmed in writing) prior to 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) that such remaining collected amounts be invested in cash equivalents specified in such request, the Administrative Agent shall invest such funds, to the extent the Administrative Agent is reasonably able to do so, in such cash equivalents as are acceptable to, and with no risk to, the Administrative Agent on an overnight basis or with maturities such that amounts will be available to pay the Obligations secured thereby as they become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise; provided, however, that any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to and be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Administrative Agent.

-42-


 

     (d)  Ratable Payments. Each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.07 or any other provision of this Agreement shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part.

     (e)  Effect of Notice. All notices given pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower.

     (f)  Payments with respect to Florida Liens. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, each payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.07 or any other provision of this Agreement shall be made in a manner such that all Advances secured by Florida Liens shall be deemed the last Advances repaid.

     Section 2.08 Breakage Costs. If (a) any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance as a result of any payment pursuant to Section 2.07 or the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise; (b) any Conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Advance is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance pursuant to Section 2.12 or otherwise; or (c) the Borrower fails to make a principal or interest payment with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance on the date such payment is due and payable, the Borrower shall, within 10 days of any written demand sent by any Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts (without duplication of any other amounts payable in respect of breakage costs) required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or nonpayment, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

     Section 2.09 Increased Costs.

     (a)  Eurodollar Rate Advances. If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in the calculation of the Eurodollar Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation following the date of this Agreement or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) not complied with prior to the date of this Agreement, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts (without duplication of any other amounts payable in respect of increased costs) sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost and detailing the calculation of such cost submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender at the time such Lender demands

-43-


 

payment under this Section shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     (b)  Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines in good faith that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) implemented or effective after the date of this Agreement affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender, any corporation controlling such Lender or the Issuing Bank and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend or the Issuing Bank’s commitment to issue Letters of Credit or any Lender’s commitment to risk participate in Letters of Credit and other commitments of this type, then, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice by such Lender or the Issuing Bank (with a copy of any such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, from time to time as specified by such Lender or the Issuing Bank, additional amounts (without duplication of any other amounts payable in respect of increased costs) sufficient to compensate such Lender, such corporation or the Issuing Bank, in light of such circumstances, (i) with respect to such Lender or such corporation, to the extent that such Lender or such corporation reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s or such corporation’s Lender’s commitment to lend under this Agreement or its commitment to risk participate in Letters of Credit and (ii) with respect to the Issuing Bank, to the extent that such Issuing Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the issuance or maintenance of the Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts and detailing the calculation of such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     (c)  Letters of Credit. If any change in any law or regulation (except with respect to Taxes or Other Taxes) or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof following the date of this Agreement shall either (i) impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by, or assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, Issuing Bank or any Lender or (ii) impose on Issuing Bank or any Lender any other condition regarding the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Letters of Credit or any Letter of Credit Obligations, and the result of any event referred to in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall be to increase the cost to Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or increase the cost to such Lender of its risk participation in any Letter of Credit (which increase in cost shall be determined by Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such cost increases resulting from such event), then, upon demand by Issuing Bank or such Lender (with a copy sent to the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Bank or Lender, as the case may be, from time to time as specified by Issuing Bank or such Lender, additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate such Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased cost. Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office for the booking of its Letters of Credit or risk participations if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment

-44-


 

of Issuing Bank or such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be. A certificate as to such increased cost incurred by Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, as a result of any event mentioned in clause (i) or (ii) above, and detailing the calculation of such increased costs submitted by Issuing Bank or such Lender to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     Section 2.10 Payments and Computations.

     (a)  Payment Procedures. Except if otherwise set forth herein, the Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the location referred to in the Notes (or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Borrower) in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will on the same day cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, or a specific Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(b), 2.03(c), 2.06(c), 2.08, 2.09, 2.11, 2.12, or 2.13(c) but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to Section 10.04) to the Lenders in accordance with, in the case of a payment made in respect of a Revolving Borrowing, each Lender’s Revolving Share, and in the case of a payment made in respect of Term Borrowing, each Lender’s Term Share for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender or Issuing Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     (b)  Computations. All computations of interest based on the Adjusted Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days and all computations of fees and interest based on the Eurodollar Rate and the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

     (c)  Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

     (d)  Administrative Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative

-45-


 

Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for each such day.

     (e)  Application of Payments. Unless otherwise specified in Section 2.07 hereof, whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement is insufficient to pay in full all amounts then due and payable under this Agreement and the Notes, such payment shall be distributed and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the following order: first, to the payment of fees and expenses due and payable to the Administrative Agent under and in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document; second, to the payment of all expenses due and payable under Section 2.11(c), ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the aggregate amount of such payments owed to each such Lender; third, to the payment of fees due and payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(b); fourth, to the payment of all other fees due and payable under Section 2.03; and fifth, to the payment of the interest accrued on and the principal amount of all of the Notes and the interest accrued on and all Letter of Credit Obligations, regardless of whether any such amount is then due and payable, ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the aggregate accrued interest plus the aggregate principal amount owed to such Lender.

     (f)  Register. The Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Revolving Commitment and the Advances from time to time of each Lender and each repayment or prepayment in respect to the principal amount of such Advances of each Lender. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided however, that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect of such Advances.

     Section 2.11 Taxes.

     (a)  No Deduction for Certain Taxes. Any and all payments by the Borrower shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.10, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender, Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or carries on business (other than as a result of a connection arising primarily from the Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement) or any political subdivision of the jurisdiction (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”) and, in the case of each Lender and Issuing Bank, Taxes by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision of such jurisdiction. If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable to any Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11), such Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have

-46-


 

received had no such deductions been made; provided, however, that if the Borrower’s obligation to deduct or withhold Taxes is caused solely by such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s, or the Administrative Agent’s failure to provide the forms described in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.11 and such Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent could have provided such forms or if such Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) fails to comply with Section 2.11(g), no such increase shall be required; (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions; and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.

     (b)  Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Notes, or the other Credit Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

     (c)  Indemnification. The Borrower indemnifies each Lender, Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 2.11) paid by such Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Each payment required to be made by the Borrower in respect of this indemnification shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any party claiming such indemnification within thirty (30) days from the date the Borrower receives written demand detailing the calculation of such amounts therefor from the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself as Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, or any such Lender. If any Lender, the Administrative Agent, or Issuing Bank receives a refund, offset, credit or deduction in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Borrower under this paragraph (c), such Lender, the Administrative Agent, or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall promptly pay to the Borrower the Borrower’s share of such refund, offset, credit or deduction, received by or credited to the Lender, the Administrative Agent, or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, (reduced by any Taxes imposed on the Lender, the Administrative Agent, or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, by reason of the receipt, accrual or payment of such refund, offset, credit or deduction).

     (d)  Evidence of Tax Payments. The Borrower will pay prior to delinquency all Taxes and Other Taxes payable in respect of any payment. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

     (e)  Foreign Lender Withholding Exemption. Each Lender and Issuing Bank that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof agrees that it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date of this Agreement or upon the effectiveness of any Assignment and Acceptance two duly completed copies of the Prescribed Forms, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement and the Notes payable to it, without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Each Lender which delivers to the

-47-


 

Borrower and the Administrative Agent a Prescribed Form further undertakes to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of a replacement Prescribed Form. If an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any delivery required by the preceding sentence would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent any Lender from duly completing and delivering any such letter or form with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax, and in the case of a Prescribed Form establishing an exemption from, or a reduced rate of, United States backup withholding tax, such Lender shall not be required to deliver such forms. The Borrower shall withhold tax at the rate and in the manner required by the laws of the United States with respect to payments made to a Lender failing to timely provide the Prescribed Forms.

     (f)  Nothing in this Section 2.11 shall require any Lender, the Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent to make available any of its tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary, in its sole discretion).

     (g)  If the Issuing Bank or any Lender claims any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.11, then such Issuing Bank or Lender (as the case may be) shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not be otherwise disadvantageous to such Issuing Bank or Lender.

     Section 2.12 Illegality. If any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to maintain any Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, then, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall, if demanded by such Lender by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 noon (New York, New York time), (a) if not prohibited by Legal Requirement to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances for the duration of the Interest Period, on the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender or (b) if prohibited by Legal Requirement to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances for the duration of the Interest Period, on the second Business Day following its receipt of such notice from such Lender, Convert all Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Lender then outstanding to Adjusted Base Rate Advances, and pay accrued interest on the principal amount Converted to the date of such Conversion and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such Conversion being made on such date. Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

     Section 2.13 Letters of Credit.

     (a)  Issuance. From time to time from the date of this Agreement until three months before the Revolving Maturity Date, at the request of the Borrower, the Issuing Bank shall, on any Business Day and on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, issue, increase, decrease, amend, or extend the expiration date of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower (for its own benefit or for the benefit of any of its Subsidiaries). Upon the Effective Date, but subject to the limitations contained in the following sentence, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be automatically converted to a Letter of Credit. No Letter of Credit will be issued, increased, or extended and no Existing Letter of Credit will be converted to a Letter of Credit (i) if such issuance, increase, extension or conversion would cause the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the lesser of (A) $50,000,000 or (B) an amount equal to (1) the Revolving Availability at such time less (2) the Revolving Exposure at such time; (ii) unless such Letter of Credit has an Expiration Date not later than the earlier of (A) one year after the date of issuance thereof and (B) one day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; (iii) unless such Letter of Credit is in form and substance acceptable to the respective Issuing Bank; (iv) unless such Letter of Credit is a standby letter of credit not supporting the repayment of indebtedness for borrowed money of any Person; (v) unless the Borrower has delivered to the respective Issuing Bank the completed and executed Letter of Credit Documents (other than the Letter of Credit) on such Issuing Bank’s standard form, which shall contain terms no more restrictive than the terms of this Agreement; (vi) unless such Letter of Credit is governed by the International Standby Practices (1998) (“ISP”) or any successor to the ISP; and (vii) unless no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the issuance of such Letter of Credit. If the terms of any of the Letter of Credit Documents referred to in the foregoing clause (v) conflicts with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

     (b)  Participations. On the date of the issuance or increase of any Letter of Credit on or after the Effective Date or the conversion of any Existing Letter of Credit to a Letter of Credit in accordance with provisions of the preceding Section 2.13(a), each Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold to each other Lender and each other Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from such Issuing Bank a participation in the Letter of Credit Exposure related to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank equal to such Lender’s Revolving Share at such date and such sale and purchase shall otherwise be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify each such participant Lender by telex, telephone, or telecopy of each Letter of Credit of such Issuing Bank issued, increased or decreased, and the actual dollar amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit. Each Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section and to reimburse the respective Issuing Bank for such Lender’s Revolving Share of any payment under a Letter of Credit by such Issuing Bank not reimbursed in full by the Borrower shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any of the circumstances described in paragraph (d) below, (ii) the occurrence and continuance of a Default, (iii) an adverse change in the financial condition of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, except for any such circumstance, happening or event constituting or arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Bank.

-49-


 

     (c)  Reimbursement. The Borrower shall have the right (but not the obligation) to pay promptly on demand to each Issuing Bank in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank an amount equal to any amount paid by such Issuing Bank under or in respect of such Letter of Credit. In the event any Issuing Bank makes a payment pursuant to a request for draw presented under a Letter of Credit and such payment is not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower upon demand, such Issuing Bank shall give notice of such payment to the Administrative Agent and, upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of such payment to the Lenders, and each Lender shall promptly reimburse such Issuing Bank for such Lender’s Revolving Share of such payment, and such reimbursement shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to constitute an Adjusted Base Rate Advance to the Borrower from such Lender. If such reimbursement is not made by any Lender to any Issuing Bank on the same day on which such Issuing Bank shall have made payment on any such draw, such Lender shall pay interest thereon to such Issuing Bank for each such day from the date such payment should have been made until the date repaid at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each such day. The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with Revolving Commitments to record and otherwise treat each payment under a Letter of Credit not immediately reimbursed by the Borrower as a Borrowing comprised of Adjusted Base Rate Advances made by such Lenders to the Borrower on the day of payment under such Letter of Credit.

     (d)  Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, notwithstanding the following circumstances:

       (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Documents;
 
       (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Letter of Credit Documents;
 
       (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Borrower or any Lender or any other Person may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the respective Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or in any Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction;
 
       (iv) any statement or any other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect to the extent the respective Issuing Bank would not be liable therefor pursuant to the following paragraph (e);
 
       (v) payment by the respective Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or

-50-


 

       (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

     (e)  Liability of Issuing Banks. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. No Issuing Bank, nor any other Lender, nor any of their respective officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for:

       (i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith;

       (ii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged;

       (iii) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant Letter of Credit; or
 
       (iv) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit (including such Issuing Bank’s own negligence),

except that the Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by (A) such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (B) such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence in failing to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificate strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.

     Section 2.14 Determination of Leverage Ratio and Senior Unsecured Leverage Ratio. The Leverage Ratio shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, as follows:

     (a)  Quarterly. On the Status Reset Date the Administrative Agent shall determine the Leverage Ratio and the Senior Unsecured Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Quarter upon receipt of a Compliance Certificate setting forth the components of the Leverage Ratio and the Senior Unsecured Leverage Ratio as of such date.

     (b)  Adjustments. Following each making, acquisition or disposition by the Parent or its Subsidiary of a Hotel Property or any of the Parent’s or its Subsidiary’s other Investments or Non-Replaced Property with an Investment Amount in excess of $5,000,000 or the incurrence by the Parent or its Subsidiary of additional Indebtedness (excluding any Obligations) in excess of $5,000,000 (an “Adjustment Event”), and the Administrative Agent’s receipt of an Adjustment Report with respect thereto, the Administrative Agent shall adjust the Leverage Ratio and the Senior Unsecured Leverage Ratio accordingly.

     Section 2.15 Lender Replacement.

     (a)  Right to Replace. The Borrower shall have the right to replace each Lender either (i) affected by a condition under Section 2.02(c)(vi), 2.09, 2.11, or 2.12 for more than 60 days or (ii) that refuses to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement which has been approved by the Required Lenders [Super Required Lenders with respect to the matters covered in Section 10.01(b) of this Agreement] (each such affected or non-consenting Lender, an “Affected Lender”) in accordance with the procedures in this Section 2.15 and provided that no reduction of the total Revolving Commitments or Term Advances occurs as a result thereof.

     (b)  Replacement Allocation.

       (i) Upon the occurrence of any condition permitting the replacement of a Lender, the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall have the right to reallocate the amount of the Revolving Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, of the Affected Lenders to Persons who desire to increase their Revolving Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, including without limitation to Persons which are not already party to this Agreement but which qualify as Eligible Assignees, which election shall be made by written notice within 30 days after the date such condition occurs.
 
       (ii) If the aggregate amount of the reallocated Commitments is less than the Commitments of the Affected Lenders, or reallocated Term Advances is less than the Term Advances of the Affected Lenders, (A) the respective Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, of the Lenders which have received such reallocated Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, shall be increased by the respective amounts of their proposed reallocations to the extent any such Lender agrees to such increase, and (B) the Borrower shall have the right to add additional Lenders which are Eligible Assignees to this Agreement to replace such Affected Lenders, which additional Lenders would have aggregate Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, no greater than those of the Affected Lenders minus the amounts of the Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, already reallocated.
 
       (iii) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.15 to the contrary, (A) no Lender may have such Lender’s Commitment or Term Advances, as applicable, increased pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.15 without such Lender’s written consent and (B) no Lender except for an Affected Lender may have such Lender’s Commitment or Term Advances, as applicable, decreased pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.15 without such Lender’s written consent.

     (c)  Procedure. Any assumptions of Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be (i) made by the purchasing Lender or Eligible Assignee and the selling Lender entering into an Assignment and Assumption and by following the procedures in Section 10.06 for adding a Lender. In connection with the reallocation of the Commitments or Term Advances, as applicable, of any Lender pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (b), each Lender with a reallocated Commitment or Term Advances, as applicable, shall purchase from the Affected Lenders at par such Lender’s ratable share of the outstanding Revolving Advances or

-52-


 

Term Advances, as applicable, of the Affected Lenders and, in connection with a reallocation of Revolving Commitments, assume such Lender’s ratable share of the Affected Lenders’ Letter of Credit Exposure.

     Section 2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) (i) on account of the Revolving Advances made by it in excess of its Revolving Share of payments or collateral on account of the Revolving Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations obtained by all the Lenders, or (ii) on account of the Term Advances made by it in excess of its Term Share of payments or collateral on account of the Term Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Advances or Term Advances, as applicable, made by them or Letter of Credit Obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of the participation sold by such Lender to the purchasing Lender as a result of such excess payment to (b) the total amount of such excess payment) of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to the purchasing Lender to (b) the total amount of all such required repayments to the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Requirement, unless and until rescinded as provided above, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

However, the execution of or release of any Supplemental Guaranty shall not be construed as a release or modification of any obligation of a Guarantor under a Guaranty or Environmental Indemnity.

     Section 10.13 Usury Not Intended. It is the intent of the Borrower and each Lender in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Lender including such applicable laws of the State of New York and the United States of America from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof, the Lenders and the Borrower stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes hereof “interest” shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable law are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be deemed to be a mistake and each Lender receiving same shall credit the same on the principal of its Notes (or if such Notes shall have been paid in full, refund said excess to the Borrower). In the event that the maturity of the Notes is accelerated by reason of any election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Notes (or, if the applicable Notes shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower). In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingencies exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Borrower and the Lenders shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of

-101-


 

the Notes all amounts considered to be interest under applicable law at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in connection with the Obligations. The provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith.

MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
UNAUDITED (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

1. ORGANIZATION

General

We are a subsidiary operating partnership of MeriStar Hospitality Corporation. We own a portfolio of upscale, full-service hotels in the United States and Canada. Our portfolio is diversified by franchise and brand affiliations. As of September 30, 2002, we owned 109 hotels, with 28,099 rooms, all of which are leased by our taxable subsidiaries and managed by Interstate Hotels & Resorts, Inc. Interstate Hotels was created on July 31, 2002 through the merger of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and Interstate Hotels Corporation.

We were created on August 3, 1998, as a result of the merger between CapStar Hotel Company and American General Hospitality Corporation, and the subsequent formation of MeriStar Hospitality, the merged entity. MeriStar Hospitality, a real estate investment trust, or REIT, is our general partner and owns a one percent interest in us as of September 30, 2002. The limited partners are as follows:

    MeriStar LP, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MeriStar Hospitality, which owns approximately a 90 percent interest as of September 30, 2002; and
    various third parties, which owned an aggregate interest of nine percent at September 30, 2002.

Partners’ capital includes the partnership interests of MeriStar Hospitality and MeriStar LP, Inc. MeriStar Hospitality held 483,745 common OP units as of September 30, 2002. MeriStar LP, Inc. held 44,561,665 common OP units as of September 30, 2002. Due to the redemption rights of the limited partnership units held by third parties, these units have been excluded from partner’s capital and classified as Redeemable OP units and are recorded at redemption value. At September 30, 2002, there were 4,296,307 redeemable units outstanding.

On January 1, 2001, changes to the federal tax laws governing real estate investment trusts became effective. Those changes are commonly known as the REIT Modernization Act, or RMA. The RMA permits real estate investment trusts to create taxable subsidiaries that are subject to taxation similar to subchapter C-Corporations. Because of the RMA, we have created a number of these taxable subsidiaries to lease our real property. The RMA prohibits our taxable subsidiaries from engaging in the following activities:

    managing the properties they lease (our taxable subsidiaries must enter into an “arms length” management agreement with an independent third-party manager that is actively involved in the trade or business of hotel management and manages properties on behalf of other owners),
    leasing a property that contains gambling operations; and
    owning a brand or franchise.

We believe establishing taxable subsidiaries to lease the properties we own provides an efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interests of property ownership. Our taxable subsidiaries are parties to management agreements with a subsidiary of Interstate Hotels to manage our hotels. Under these management agreements, the taxable subsidiaries pay a management fee to Interstate Hotels for each property. The taxable subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to us under the participating leases. Under the management agreements, the base management fee is 2.5% of total hotel revenue plus incentives payments, based on meeting performance thresholds, that could total up to 1.5% of total hotel revenue. All of the agreements, except for four agreements with terms that renew annually, have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at the option of Interstate Hotels, subject to some exceptions.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

We have prepared these unaudited interim financial statements according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have omitted certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accompanying notes and other information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain 2001 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2002 presentation.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” requires a public entity to report selected information about operating segments in financial reports issued to shareholders. Based on the guidance provided in the standard, we have determined that our business is conducted in one reportable segment. The standard also establishes requirements for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Revenues for Canadian operations totaled $6,166 and $6,716 for the three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Revenues for Canadian operations totaled $16,573 and $18,299 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. We assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows, and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

Our interest rate swap agreements were initially designated as hedges against changes in future cash flows associated with specific variable rate debt obligations. As of September 30, 2002, we had three swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $300,000. All of these swap agreements have been converted to non-hedging derivatives due to our repayment of the floating-rate borrowings they originally hedged and they are currently being marked to market through our statement of operations. We have interest rate exposure going forward as the change in fair value of our non-hedging derivatives will have an impact on our statement of operations. The interest rate swap agreements are reflected at fair value in our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2002. For more information regarding our interest rate hedging activities, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” If we enter into these transactions in the future, we will have to evaluate the effects this new standard will have on our financial statements. The provisions of this statement are to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 145 “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13, Technical Corrections”. We plan to adopt this statement on January 1, 2003.

In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which supersedes SFAS No. 121. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 were effective on January 1, 2002 for our financial statements. SFAS No. 144 requires the current and prior period operating results of any asset that has been disposed of, on or after January 1, 2002, including any gain or loss recognized, to be recorded as

9


 

discontinued operations. In August 2002, we sold three hotels. All operating results, including the loss on disposal, have been recorded as discontinued operations. We have reclassified prior periods to reflect operations of the three hotels as discontinued operations.

3. AMOUNTS DUE TO/FROM INTERSTATE HOTELS

Due to/from Interstate Hotel and Resorts

In the normal course of managing our hotel properties, Interstate Hotels incurs day to day operating costs which are reimbursed by us. The balance of $9,954 at September 30, 2002, includes management fees due, and reimbursements due for insurance, employee benefits, sales and marketing expenses, and other miscellaneous operating expenses. These amounts are normally paid within 30 days.

Pursuant to an intercompany agreement, we and Interstate Hotels provide each other with among other things, reciprocal rights to participate in certain transactions entered into by each party. In particular, Interstate Hotels has a right of first refusal to become the manager of any real property we acquire. We also may provide each other with certain services. These may include administrative, renovation supervision, corporate, accounting, finance, risk management, legal, tax, information technology, human resources, acquisition identification and due diligence, and operational services, for which Interstate Hotels is compensated in an amount that we would be charged by a third party for comparable services. As of December 31, 2001, Interstate owed us $8,877 for working capital deficits at the RMA lease conversion date and these services.

Note Receivable From Interstate Hotels and Resorts

Under a revolving credit agreement with Interstate Hotels through July 31, 2002, we had the ability to lend Interstate Hotels up to $50,000 for general corporate purposes. The interest rate on this credit agreement was 650 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate.

Interstate Hotels also issued us a term note effective January 1, 2002. This $13,069 term note refinanced outstanding accounts payable Interstate Hotels owed to us. The term loan bore interest at 650 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR. The maturity date was the same as that of the revolving credit agreement. The repayments of the credit agreement and term note were subordinate to Interstate’s bank debt.

In connection with the merger that created Interstate Hotels on July 31, 2002, Interstate Hotels paid $3,000 to reduce its borrowings outstanding on the credit agreement. Also, the credit agreement and term note were amended and combined into a term loan agreement with a principal balance of $56,069 and a maturity date of July 31, 2007. The interest rate remained at 650 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR. This term loan is subordinate to Interstate’s new credit agreement, and the term loan does not allow for any additional amount of further borrowings by Interstate Hotels.

4.     LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consisted of the following:
                 
    September 30, 2002   December 31, 2001
   
 
Senior unsecured notes
  $ 950,000     $ 750,000

  $ 1,669,654     $ 1,700,134  
 
   
     
 

As of September 30, 2002 aggregate future maturities of the above obligations are as follows:
         
2002
  $ 1,914  
2003
    22,188  
2004
    170,669

2006
    9,407  
Thereafter
    1,456,811  
 
   
 
 
  $ 1,669,654  
 
   
 

In February 2002, we issued an additional $200,000 ($196,250, net of discount) aggregate principal amount of 9.13% senior unsecured notes due 2011. We used the proceeds from the issuance of these notes to repay approximately $195,000 of the outstanding balance under our revolving credit agreement. As a result of this financing, we redesignated

10


 

some swap agreements as non-hedging derivatives. We recognized a $4,735 loss when this amount was transferred out of accumulated other comprehensive income because the debt being hedged was repaid.

In February 2002, we amended our revolving credit agreement. The amendment allowed us to reduce the revolving commitments to below $300,000. In March 2002, we reduced the borrowing capacity on our revolving credit agreement from $310,000 to $150,000. We recognized a $1,529 loss due to the write-off of deferred financing costs related to reducing the borrowing capacity of our revolving credit agreement.

On October 29, 2002, we entered into a new three-year, $100,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The initial interest rate is 30-day LIBOR plus 388 basis points. We repaid the outstanding balance of $14,000 on our previous credit facility in conjunction with closing this facility.

5.     DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE

On September 25, 2002, we declared a dividend for the three months ended September 30, 2002 of $0.01 per limited partnership unit. We paid the dividend on October 31, 2002.

  $ (237 )   $ 558     $ 635     $ 2,264  
 
   
     
     
     
 

12.     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 29, 2002, we entered into a new three-year $100,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The initial interest rate 30-day LIBOR plus 388 basis points. We repaid the outstanding balance of $14,000 on our previous credit facility in conjunction with closing this facility.

On November 6, 2002, we sold one hotel for $12,500. The book carrying value of this hotel at the date of sale was approximately $26,000. In the fourth quarter, we will record a loss on sale from the disposition of this hotel of approximately $13,500.

SFAS No. 144 requires companies to classify long-lived assets as held for sale (as opposed to held for use) as of a balance sheet date if several criteria are met. One of those criteria is that the sale of the asset must be considered probable (that is, likely to occur) as of the balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2002, we did not consider the sale of this asset to be probable and therefore we did not meet the criteria according to SFAS No. 144 to classify this hotel as held for sale on our balance sheet and to reclassify the operations of the hotel to discontinued operations on our statement of operations. We did not consider this sale probable as of September 30, 2002 for the following reasons:

    although we had listed this property to be sold with an independent broker prior to September 30, 2002, we believed the probability of a sale within one year was low. Based on our history of listing assets for possible sale, we expected the listing, bidding, and negotiation process for a possible sale, if any, to be extended;
    the offer to purchase this property was received after the balance sheet date, in mid-October 2002;
    the offer was received from a new prospective buyer with whom we had no previous dealings and therefore it was difficult to assess the potential buyer’s ability or willingness to close a transaction on a timely basis;
    the buyer was not willing to put up a nonrefundable deposit; and
    we did not have an executed sales contract until November 4, 2002.

Based on the reasons above, we did not consider this property as held for sale as of the balance sheet date.

In addition, as of September 30, 2002, we did not consider this property impaired in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144. In situations when the criteria of SFAS No. 144 are met to classify an asset as held for sale after the balance sheet date but before issuance of the financial statements, SFAS No. 144 requires that the asset continue to be classified as held and used in those financial statements when issued. We tested the asset for recoverability on a held and used basis as of the balance sheet date. The estimates of future cash flows used in this test considered the likelihood of possible outcomes that existed at the balance sheet date, including the assessment of the likelihood of the future sale of the asset. We performed the recoverability analysis using a probability-weighted cash flows test to assess the asset for possible impairment. Based on the results of the probability-weighted cash flows test for impairment, the carrying value of this asset would be recoverable as of September 30, 2002; therefore the asset was not considered impaired as of that date.

We sold this asset in light of the severe downturn in the overall economy that has had a negative effect on our operating results, and decreased the amount of cash generated by our operations. We believe we have sufficient free cash flow currently, and project to have adequate cash flow in future periods. Our current and future liquidity is, however, greatly dependent upon our operating results, which are driven largely by overall economic conditions. If the general economic conditions continue to be depressed for an extended period, this would negatively impact our projections of available cash flow and liquidity. In order to maintain our current operating flexibility and establish a further cushion against the slowed economy and future economic and other uncertainties, we are taking several steps to further improve our liquidity. One of these steps is the marketing of non-core assets. We elected to sell this asset principally because of the rapid closing offered by the seller. This allowed us to improve our short-term liquidity and provide an additional cushion against future operating results.
