A number of factors could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Among these factors are: - whether the merger of MeriStar Hospitality Corporation with and into FelCor and the merger of MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. with a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor LP is completed; - whether and on what terms the merger related financings are completed; - general economic conditions; - our overall debt levels and the ability to obtain new financing and service debt; - our inability to retain earnings; - our liquidity and capital expenditures; - our growth strategy and acquisition activities; - our inability to sell the hotels held for sale at assumed prices; and - competitive conditions in the lodging industry. In addition, such forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent upon assumptions and estimates that may prove to be incorrect. Accordingly, while we believe that the plans, intentions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that such plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. The information contained in this prospectus and in the other documents referenced herein, including "Risk Factors," identifies important factors that could cause such differences. For these forward-looking statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. iii 6 WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION Both FelCor and FelCor LP file annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC.

FELCOR AND FELCOR LP We are one of the nation's largest hotel real estate investment trusts, or REITs, with ownership interests in 185 hotels at June 30, 2001, with nearly 50,000 rooms and suites. As of June 30, 2001, we owned a 100% interest in 152 hotels with 40,309 rooms and suites, a 90% or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels with 1,745 rooms and suites, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels with 983 rooms and a 50% interest in separate entities that own 24 hotels with 5,459 rooms and suites. Our hotels are located in the United States (35 states) and Canada, with concentrations in Texas (41 hotels), California (19 hotels), Florida (18 hotels) and Georgia (14 hotels). Fifteen of our hotels have been designated as held for sale. We own the largest number of Embassy Suites, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn and independently owned Doubletree-branded hotels in the world. MERISTAR MERGER On May 9, 2001, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with MeriStar and MeriStar LP. Pursuant to the merger agreement, as amended, MeriStar will be merged with and into FelCor, with FelCor as the survivor. Under the terms of the merger agreement, which was approved by the boards of both FelCor and MeriStar, holders of shares of MeriStar common stock will receive, for each share of common stock, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 shares of FelCor common stock. We also will either assume or refinance approximately $1.7 billion in MeriStar debt. MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc., an independent public hotel management company, will continue to manage substantially all of the hotels we will acquire from MeriStar in the merger. The MeriStar merger will also involve the merger of MeriStar's subsidiary operating limited partnership, MeriStar LP, with a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor LP, with MeriStar LP surviving as a subsidiary of FelCor LP. The holders of common partnership units and vested profits-only partnership units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 common partnership units in FelCor LP. Unvested profits-only partnership units will be canceled. The holders of Class C preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 Series C preferred units in FelCor LP. The holders of Class D preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, one Series D preferred unit in FelCor LP. The MeriStar merger, which is subject to shareholder approval and other customary conditions, is expected to close during October 2001. We will continue to operate as a REIT and Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr. will continue as our President and Chief Executive Officer. Paul W. Whetsell, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MeriStar, and Steven D. Jorns, a director of MeriStar, have agreed to join our board of directors. We will maintain our existing headquarters facilities in Irving, Texas. MeriStar is a REIT which owns a portfolio of primarily upscale, full-service hotels, diversified geographically, as well as by franchise and brand affiliations, in the United States and Canada. As of June 30, 2001, MeriStar owned 113 hotels with 28,877 rooms. The hotels are located in major metropolitan areas or rapidly growing secondary markets and are well located within these markets. A majority of MeriStar's hotels are operated under nationally recognized brand names such as Hilton, Sheraton, Westin, Marriott, Radisson, Doubletree and Embassy Suites. 1 8 Upon completion of the MeriStar merger, we will have ownership interests in 298 hotels, and for the year ended December 31, 2000, on a pro forma basis, our revenues were $2.9 billion and our EBITDA was $803.2 million. Assuming the sale of the 15 non-strategic hotels designated by FelCor as held for sale, after the MeriStar merger, we will have ownership interests in 283 hotels with approximately 75,000 rooms and suites. We are the largest independent owner of Embassy Suites and Doubletree-branded hotels, which are licensed by Hilton Hotels Corporation. As a result of the MeriStar merger, we will acquire three Embassy Suites, six Doubletree Hotels and 23 Hilton hotels. Similarly, we currently own 69 hotels, and following the MeriStar merger, will own 88 hotels, licensed by Six Continents Hotels, formerly known as Bass Hotels & Resorts, primarily under the Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza names. We also currently own 11 and, following the MeriStar merger, will own 27, Starwood-branded hotels, primarily under the Sheraton and Westin names, which are licensed by Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, Inc. These incremental hotels should further strengthen our relationships with our existing brand owners.

------------------------- (1) Excludes the 15 hotels designated as held for sale. BUSINESS STRATEGY We seek to increase our operating cash flow through active asset management. In addition to actively overseeing the operation of our hotels by our lessees and their managers, we apply our asset management 2 9 expertise to the renovation, redevelopment and rebranding of hotels, the maintenance of strong strategic relationships with our brand owners and managers and the maintenance of financial flexibility and a conservative balance sheet. We believe that MeriStar's business strategies have historically been similar to our business strategy. Following the completion of the MeriStar merger, we expect to apply our business strategy to our combined company. Hotel Renovation, Redevelopment and Rebranding We expect to continue to differentiate ourselves from many of our competitors by: - our practice of upgrading, renovating and/or redeveloping most of our recently acquired hotels to enhance their competitive position, and, in certain instances, rebranding them to improve their revenue generating capacity; and - our ongoing program for the maintenance of our upgraded hotel assets, which generally includes: -- contribution of approximately 4.0% of total annual room and suite revenue to a capital reserve for routine capital replacements and improvements; and -- adherence to a rigorous maintenance and repair program, resulting in the expenditure of more than 4.0% of annual hotel revenues on maintenance of the hotels. We have demonstrated our ability to successfully execute renovations. Our renovation and rebranding of the 18 Crown Sterling Suites hotels, which were acquired during 1996 and 1997, achieved an overall increase in revenue per available room ("RevPAR") of 47.7% between 1996 and 2000. During 1998, 1999 and 2000, an aggregate of approximately $550 million in capital improvements and other capital expenditures were made to our hotels, with approximately 3% of total hotel room nights being lost in 1998, 2% in 1999 and 1% in 2000, due to renovations. During the same period, MeriStar spent approximately $423 million on their renovation and ongoing property capital expenditures programs. During 2001, we currently expect to spend approximately $20 million on the renovation of eight hotels, approximately $28 million to complete renovations started in 2000 at 46 hotels, and approximately $50 million for other capital expenditures. We expect an insignificant number of room nights to be lost during 2001 as a result of renovations. During 2001, MeriStar expects to spend approximately $65 million to complete renovation programs and for ongoing capital expenditures programs. We believe that both MeriStar's and our historical capital expenditures should limit the need for future major renovation expenditures. The largest single renovation project that we completed during 1999 was the Allerton Crowne Plaza in Chicago, which reopened in July 1999, after having been closed for more than a year. This project has received numerous awards, including Lodging Hospitality magazine's Year's Best Design competition in two categories, Bass Hotels & Resorts 1999 Newcomer of the Year award, and Chicago's Greater North Michigan Avenue Association 1999 Avenue Enhancement award. Maintenance of Strong Strategic Relationships We benefit from strategic brand owner and manager relationships with Hilton (Embassy Suites, Hilton and Doubletree), Six Continents Hotels (Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn) and Starwood (Sheraton and Westin). - Hilton, which acquired Promus Hotel Corporation in 1999, has a hotel system of more than 1,960 hotels with more than 325,000 guest rooms worldwide, and is now the largest operator of full-service, all-suite hotels in the United States. In addition to its Hilton and Conrad International-branded hotels, Hilton owns the Embassy Suites, Doubletree and Doubletree Guest Suites brands and at June 30, 2001, managed 71 of our hotels. As a result of its acquisition of Promus, Hilton acquired an equity interest in FelCor having an aggregate value of approximately $32 million at June 30, 2001, and it became a 50% partner in joint ventures with us in the ownership of 12 hotels and the holder of a 10% equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries owning six hotels. Our 3 10 relationship with Promus and its Embassy Suites brand provided the foundation for our historical growth, and we expect to expand our relationship with Hilton, as a result of the MeriStar merger. - Six Continents Hotels is one of the largest hotel operating companies in the world. Six Continents Hotels owns, operates or franchises more than 3,200 hotels with more than 500,000 guest rooms in nearly 100 countries around the world. Among the brands owned by Six Continents Hotels are Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Select, Holiday Inn Express and Inter-Continental. Six Continents Hotels, which acquired Bristol Hotel Company in March 2000, managed 90 of our hotels at June 30, 2001. Six Continents Hotels also owns FelCor common stock and FelCor LP units aggregating approximately 16.1% of our outstanding common stock and units. - Starwood is one of the world's largest hotel operating companies. Directly and through subsidiaries, Starwood owns, leases, manages or franchises more than 725 properties with approximately 225,000 rooms in 80 countries. Our strategic alliance with Starwood, coupled with the purchase of seven Sheraton hotels in 1997, provided us with our initial entry into the upscale, full-service, non-suite hotel market. Starwood manages 11 of our hotels and is a 40% joint venture partner with us in the ownership of two hotels and a 50% joint venture partner with us in the ownership of one hotel. Maintenance of Financial Flexibility We are committed to maintaining substantial financial flexibility. In funding our growth, we have used a broad selection of financing sources to minimize our cost of capital, including public equity, collateralized mortgage-backed securities, public and private debt, and asset divestitures. We believe that our capital structure will continue to be among the more conservative in the hotel REIT industry. We believe our financial flexibility should enable us to pursue selective hotel acquisition and expansion opportunities and to take advantage of renovation, redevelopment and rebranding opportunities to help us improve our competitive position. 4 11 CORPORATE STRUCTURE The following diagram depicts our general corporate structure and debt outstanding at June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis (dollars in millions): [CORPORATE STRUCTURE CHART] (1) Assumes that the holders of the MeriStar convertible subordinated notes and the MeriStar subordinated notes accept, and the holders of the MeriStar senior notes do not accept, the change of control offer that we will be required to make following the MeriStar merger. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Since January 1, 2001 we: - acquired from subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels the leases covering 12 of the 25 hotels identified in the second quarter of 2000 as held for sale and terminated the related management agreements in exchange for 413,585 shares of FelCor common stock valued at approximately $10 million; 11 of the leases were transferred to our taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, effective as of January 1, 2001, and one was terminated in connection with the sale of the related hotel; - completed the acquisition of DJONT Operations, L.L.C. and its consolidated subsidiaries, effective as of January 1, 2001, for 416,667 units of limited partnership interest in FelCor LP valued at approximately $10 million; - contributed eight of the hotels held for sale in March 2001 to an entity in which we hold a 50% equity interest and in which an affiliate of Interstate Hotels Corporation, or IHC, holds the other 50% equity interest; another affiliate of IHC manages each of these hotels; - entered into the merger agreement with MeriStar and MeriStar LP; - completed a private placement of senior notes due 2011 in the aggregate principal amount of $600 million at an interest rate of 8 1/2% per annum. Pending use to finance in part the MeriStar merger, approximately $316 million of the proceeds of this private placement was placed in a 5 12 restricted proceeds account to fund the special redemption described below. If the MeriStar merger is not closed on or prior to November 30, 2001 or the merger agreement relating to the MeriStar merger is terminated earlier, the funds in the restricted proceeds account will be used to redeem $300 million aggregate principal amount of the senior notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption. Pursuant to the restricted proceeds agreement, the funds in the restricted proceeds account will be released to FelCor LP to pay a portion of the purchase price for the MeriStar merger and to pay related fees and expenses upon receipt by the escrow agent of an officers' certificate that states that all necessary conditions to the closing of the MeriStar merger have been satisfied or waived; - announced Richard J. O'Brien as our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President in June 2001; - acquired the remaining 88 leases held by Six Continents Hotels on July 1, 2001; and - amended and restated our line of credit in July 2001 to increase it, upon completion of the MeriStar merger, from $600 million to $700 million. On January 1, 2001, the provisions of the REIT Modernization Act became effective. These provisions: - reduce the percentage of taxable income required to be distributed by a REIT from 95% to 90% for taxable years after 2000; and - subject to certain limitations, permit a REIT to own taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, that engage in businesses previously prohibited to a REIT, including, among other things, leasing hotels from a hotel REIT, so long as the hotels in question continue to be managed by unrelated third parties. This act and its impact on us are discussed in further detail elsewhere in this prospectus. Our principal executive offices are located at 545 E. John Carpenter Freeway, Suite 1300, Irving, Texas 75062 and our telephone number is (972) 444-4900. 6 13 THE EXCHANGE OFFER On January 22, 2001, we completed the private offering of $100 million of 9 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2008. We entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchaser in the private offering of the Old Notes in which we agreed, among other things, to deliver to you this prospectus and to complete this exchange offer within 180 days of the original issuance of the Old Notes. You are entitled to exchange in this exchange offer Old Notes that you hold for registered New Notes with substantially identical terms. Because this exchange offer was not completed by July 21, 2001, the interest rate on the Old Notes has increased to 10.0% until the exchange offer is completed or, under certain circumstances, until a resale registration statement with respect to the Old Notes is declared effective by the SEC. You should read the discussion under the headings "-- Description of New Notes" and "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees" for further information regarding the New Notes. We believe that the New Notes to be issued in this exchange offer may be resold by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, subject to certain conditions. The following summarizes the terms of the exchange offer. You should read the discussion under the heading "The Exchange Offer" for further information regarding this exchange offer and resale of the New Notes. Securities to be Exchanged.................. On January 22, 2001, we issued $100 million in aggregate principal amount of Old Notes to the initial purchaser in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The terms of the New Notes and the Old Notes are substantially identical in all material respects, except that the New Notes will be freely transferable by the holders, except as otherwise provided in this prospectus. See "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees." The Exchange Offer......... $1,000 principal amount of New Notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes. As of the date hereof, Old Notes representing $100 million aggregate principal amount are outstanding. Based on interpretations by the staff of the SEC, as set forth in no-action letters issued to certain third parties unrelated to us, we believe that New Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for Old Notes may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by holders thereof other than any holder which is an "affiliate" of FelCor LP, FelCor or certain of their subsidiaries within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, or a broker-dealer who purchased Old Notes directly from us to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption under the Securities Act, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, provided that such New Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders' business and such holders have no arrangement with any person to engage in a distribution of New Notes. However, the SEC has not considered the exchange offer in the context of a no-action letter and we cannot be sure that the staff of the SEC would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange offer as in such other circumstances. Furthermore, each holder, other than a broker-dealer, must acknowledge that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage or participate in, a distribution of New Notes. Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will comply with the prospectus delivery require- 7 14 ments of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such New Notes. Broker-dealers who acquired Old Notes directly from us and not as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may not rely on the staff's interpretations discussed above or participate in the exchange offer and must comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in order to resell the Old Notes. Registration Rights Agreement................ We sold the Old Notes on January 22, 2001, in a private placement in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The Old Notes were immediately resold by the initial purchaser in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. In connection with the sale, we, together with FelCor and the subsidiary guarantors, entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchaser requiring us to make the exchange offer. See "The Exchange Offer -- Purpose and Effect." Expiration Date............ The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2001 or a later date and time if we extend it. Withdrawal................. The tender of the Old Notes pursuant to the exchange offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the expiration date. Any Old Notes not accepted for exchange for any reason will be returned without expense as soon as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. Interest on the New Notes and the Old Notes........ Interest on the New Notes will accrue from March 15, 2001, or from the date of the last payment of interest on the Old Notes, whichever is later. No additional interest will be paid on Old Notes tendered and accepted for exchange. Conditions of the Exchange Offer.................... The exchange offer is subject to certain customary conditions, certain of which may be waived by us. See "The Exchange Offer -- Conditions of the Exchange Offer." Procedures for Tendering Old Notes................ Each holder of the Old Notes wishing to accept the exchange offer must complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal, or a copy thereof, in accordance with the instructions contained herein and therein, and mail or otherwise deliver the letter of transmittal, or the copy, together with the Old Notes and any other required documentation, to the exchange agent at the address set forth herein. Persons holding the Old Notes through the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and wishing to accept the exchange offer must do so pursuant to DTC's Automated Tender Offer Program, by which each tendering participant will agree to be bound by the letter of transmittal. By executing or agreeing to be bound by the letter of transmittal, each holder will represent to us that, among other things, (1) the New Notes acquired pursuant to the exchange offer are being obtained in the ordinary course of business of the person receiving such New Notes, (2) the holder is not engaging in and does not intend to engage in a distribution of the New Notes, (3) the holder does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the New Notes, and (4) the holder is not an "affiliate," 8 15 as defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, of FelCor LP, FelCor or any of the subsidiary guarantors. We will accept for exchange any and all Old Notes which are properly tendered, and not withdrawn, in the exchange offer prior to the expiration date. The New Notes will be delivered promptly following the expiration date. See "The Exchange Offer -- Terms of the Exchange Offer." Exchange Agent............. SunTrust Bank is serving as exchange agent in connection with the exchange offer. Federal Income Tax Considerations........... We believe the exchange of Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the exchange offer will not constitute a sale or an exchange for federal income tax purposes. See "Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations." Effect of Not Tendering.... Old Notes that are not tendered or that are tendered but not accepted will, following the completion of the exchange offer, continue to be subject to the existing restrictions upon transfer. We will have no further obligation to provide for the registration of the Old Notes under the Securities Act. DESCRIPTION OF NEW NOTES Issuer..................... FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership. Securities Offered......... $100 million aggregate principal amount of 9 1/2% Senior Notes Due 2008. Maturity................... September 15, 2008. Interest................... Interest will be payable in cash on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2001. Optional Redemption........ We cannot redeem the New Notes until September 15, 2004, except as described below in connection with certain equity offerings. At any time on or after September 15, 2004, we may redeem some or all of the New Notes at the redemption prices listed under the heading "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees -- Optional Redemption," plus accrued and unpaid interest. Optional Redemption After Equity Offerings... At any time before September 15, 2003, we may elect to redeem up to 35% of the outstanding Notes, including New Notes, with funds that we raise in one or more equity offerings, as long as: - we pay 109.5% of the face amount of the Notes, plus interest; - we redeem the Notes within 90 days of completing the equity offering; and - at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding afterwards. Change of Control.......... Upon a change of control, we will be required to make an offer to purchase the New Notes at 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. We may not have sufficient funds available at the time of any change of control to effect the purchase. 9 16 Guarantees................. The New Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by FelCor and by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries that are obligors on other senior debt of FelCor or FelCor LP. Ranking.................... The New Notes will be unsecured and will rank equally with all of our existing and future unsecured senior debt. The New Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our and our consolidated subsidiaries' secured debt and to all other debt of our non-guarantor subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, we and our consolidated subsidiaries would have had approximately $1.4 billion of secured debt, all of which is mortgage and capitalized lease debt and effectively senior to the New Notes to the extent of the value of the underlying assets. At June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, our non-guarantor subsidiaries had less than $1 million of other debt. Certain Other Covenants.... The indenture governing the New Notes restricts our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to: - incur additional debt; - incur additional secured debt and subsidiary debt; - make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments; - limit the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make payments to us; - issue or sell stock of restricted subsidiaries; - enter into transactions with affiliates; - create liens; - sell assets; - enter into certain sale-leaseback transactions; and - with respect to FelCor LP and FelCor, consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. Ratings Downgrade.......... Upon the occurrence of, and during the continuance of, a ratings downgrade, as defined, the New Notes will bear yearly interest at a rate equal to 10%. See "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees -- Certain Definitions -- Ratings Downgrade." Fall-Away Covenants........ Under the indenture governing the New Notes, in the event, and only for as long as, the New Notes are rated investment grade and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, many of the covenants described above will not be applicable to FelCor, FelCor LP and their restricted subsidiaries. RISK FACTORS YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER THE CAPTION "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 18 BEFORE INVESTING IN THE NEW NOTES. 10 17 SUMMARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA The following table sets forth unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial data for MeriStar LP and us as a combined entity, and for FelCor and MeriStar as a combined entity, in each case giving effect to the merger and partnership merger as if they had occurred on the dates indicated and after giving effect to the pro forma adjustments. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined operating data are presented as if the merger and partnership merger had been completed on January 1, 2000. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet data at June 30, 2001 is presented as if the merger and partnership merger had occurred on June 30, 2001. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of these transactions have been made. The merger and partnership merger will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting as provided by Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 and 142. Based on FelCor's current estimate of value for the MeriStar assets to be acquired in the amount of approximately $3.0 billion and liabilities to be assumed in the amount of approximately $1.9 billion, no goodwill will be recorded for this transaction. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial data should be read together with the respective historical audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements and financial statement notes of FelCor LP and FelCor, and of MeriStar LP and MeriStar, included in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

------------ (1) In the second quarter of 2000, we recorded a $63 million loss related to the decision to sell certain non-strategic hotel assets, which is reflected in the income statements presented for the period. (2) We consider Funds From Operations to be a key measure of a real estate investment trust's, or REIT's performance which should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of operating performance and liquidity. The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines Funds From Operations as net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from extraordinary items in accordance with GAAP and sales of depreciable operating properties, plus swap termination costs and real estate related depreciation and amortization and after comparable adjustments for our portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities and joint ventures. We believe that Funds From Operations 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. We compute Funds From Operations in accordance with standards established by NAREIT, except that we add back rent deferred under Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB 101, the loss on assets held for sale, lease termination costs and swap termination expenses to derive Funds From Operations. This may not be comparable to Funds From Operations reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do or that do not adjust Funds From Operations for rent deferred under SAB 101, the loss on assets held for sale, lease termination costs and swap termination expense. Funds From Operations 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. Funds From Operations may include funds that may not be available for management's discretionary use due to requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. 12 19 The computation of Funds From Operations for FelCor LP and FelCor yields the same result. The following table details the computation of Funds From Operations for FelCor LP.

EBITDA is presented because it provides useful information regarding our ability to service debt. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP.

(2) Includes hotel revenues and expenses with respect to 96 hotels that were leased to either DJONT or subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels prior to the effectiveness of the REIT Modernization Act on January 1, 2001. Prior to January 1, 2001, these 14 21 hotels' revenues were comprised mainly of percentage lease revenues. Additionally in the first quarter of 2001, we recorded lease termination costs of $36.2 million with respect to the 96 hotels.

16 23 ------------ (1) MeriStar LP and MeriStar were created on August 3, 1998, when American General Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its associated entities. In connection with the merger between CapStar and American General, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, a separate publicly traded company, was created to be the lessee and manager of nearly all of MeriStar's hotels. Prior to August 2, 1998, MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's operating results consisted of the revenues and expenses of the hotels. (2) From August 3, 1998 until January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts leased substantially all of MeriStar's hotels, and MeriStar LP and MeriStar earned lease revenue under the participating lease agreements with its lessees. Upon assigning the 106 leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to MeriStar's taxable REIT subsidiaries on January 1, 2001, in conjunction with the REIT Modernization Act, MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's operating results now include the revenues and expenses of these hotels. (3) EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. MeriStar's management believes that EBITDA is a useful measure of operating performance because (i) it is industry practice to evaluate hotel properties based on operating income before interest, depreciation and amortization and minority interests of common and preferred holders of units in MeriStar LP, which is generally equivalent to EBITDA, and (ii) EBITDA is unaffected by the debt and equity structure of the entity. EBITDA does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income under GAAP for purposes of evaluating MeriStar LP's or MeriStar's results of operations and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. 17 24 RISK FACTORS An investment in the New Notes involves a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following material risk factors, together with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, in evaluating the exchange offer. IF YOU DO NOT PROPERLY TENDER YOUR OLD NOTES, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO HOLD UNREGISTERED OLD NOTES AND YOUR ABILITY TO TRANSFER OLD NOTES WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. We will only issue New Notes in exchange for Old Notes that are timely received by the Exchange Agent together with all required documents, including a properly completed and signed letter of transmittal. Therefore, you should allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery of the Old Notes and you should carefully follow the instructions on how to tender your Old Notes. Neither we nor the Exchange Agent are required to tell you of any defects or irregularities with respect to your tender of the Old Notes. If you do not tender your Old Notes properly, then, after we consummate the exchange offer, you may continue to hold Old Notes that are subject to the existing transfer restrictions. In addition, if you tender your Old Notes for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the New Notes, you will be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the New Notes. If you are a broker-dealer that receives New Notes for your own account in exchange for Old Notes that you acquired as a result of market-making activities or any other trading activities, you will be required to acknowledge that you will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. After the exchange offer is consummated, if you continue to hold any Old Notes, you may have difficulty selling them because there may be only a small amount of Old Notes outstanding. THE INTEGRATION OF MERISTAR WILL MAKE SUBSTANTIAL DEMANDS ON OUR RESOURCES, WHICH COULD DIVERT NEEDED ATTENTION AWAY FROM OUR OTHER OPERATIONS. The integration of MeriStar will make substantial demands on our management, operational resources and financial and internal control systems. Our future operating results will depend in part on our ability to continue to implement and improve our operating and financial controls. The devotion of our management's time to the integration of MeriStar may limit the time available to management to attend to other operational, financial and strategic issues. WE MAY INCUR UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE MERISTAR MERGER. We may be subject to undisclosed or otherwise unforeseen environmental, tax, pension, litigation or other liabilities in connection with the MeriStar merger, or we may underestimate the liabilities of which we are aware. If these unknown liabilities materialize or known liabilities are greater than we currently estimate, they could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. WE MAY NOT SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE MERISTAR WITH OUR EXISTING OPERATIONS AND THE INTENDED BENEFITS MAY NOT BE REALIZED. Our future operations and earnings will depend in part on our ability to integrate MeriStar's properties into our system and operations and realize synergies and cost savings. In order to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger, we will need to: - realize an anticipated $5 million of annual cost savings in general and administrative expenses from reductions in personnel, closing and subletting MeriStar's corporate offices and the elimination of other duplicate overhead costs; - capitalize on increased purchasing power, including for furniture, fixtures, equipment, insurance and utilities; 18 25 - leverage our increased scale in brand negotiations; and - effectively control the progress of the integration process and the associated costs. Our assessment of the potential synergies and cost savings is preliminary and subject to change. We may need to incur additional costs to realize them, none of which costs are currently expected to be material. Statements regarding the increased earnings estimates, the anticipated operating efficiencies, cost savings and other benefits we expect to realize from the integration of MeriStar are forward-looking statements. Actual results for the combined operations could differ materially from results currently anticipated depending upon, among other things: - our and MeriStar's future revenues, expenses and other operating results; - our and MeriStar's ability to maintain present efficiency levels and realize expected cost savings and synergies; - unforeseen costs and expenses incurred in connection with the integration of MeriStar into our operations and other business; and - economic or competitive uncertainties and contingencies. FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE MERISTAR MERGER MAY REQUIRE, UNDER SPECIFIED CIRCUMSTANCES, PAYMENT OF TERMINATION FEES. The MeriStar merger is subject to stockholder approval of both MeriStar and us and other customary conditions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to satisfy our obligations under the merger agreement and consummate the MeriStar merger. Under these circumstances, the assets and cash flows of MeriStar will not be available to us to repay the principal of or interest on the Notes and our other notes. In addition, if we fail to consummate the MeriStar merger, under certain circumstances we may be required to pay a break-up fee and MeriStar's expenses in connection with the MeriStar merger. These payments could amount to as much as $40 million. FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE MERGER MAY RESULT IN OTHER ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES TO US. Under the merger agreement, both MeriStar and us agreed to some affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants affecting the conduct of their respective businesses outside the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, both parties may forego opportunities which otherwise would be available to them had the merger agreement not been executed. In addition, transactions such as the merger can disrupt relationships with employees and others with whom the parties have existing or prospective relationships. Accordingly, if the merger agreement is terminated, the ability of MeriStar or us to continue pre-merger business plans could be adversely affected. We expect to incur approximately $28 million in expenses for the merger and related transactions, which may not be reimbursable. WE HAVE HAD AND EXPECT TO HAVE INCREASES IN LEVERAGE THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION. Our leverage has increased to fund our renovation, redevelopment and rebranding program and our share repurchase program. In addition, we expect our leverage to further increase as a result of the completion of the MeriStar merger and the other related financings. The share repurchase program authorizes repurchases up to an aggregate maximum of $300 million. Through June 30, 2001, we repurchased approximately 10.4 million shares of common stock under this program at an aggregate cost of approximately $189 million. 19 26 At June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, we would have had: - approximately $3.6 billion in consolidated debt, of which approximately $1.4 billion would have been secured by mortgages or capital leases and $26.2 million would have had a maturity date of less than 12 months; - a ratio of total debt to market capitalization of 57.4%; - we had a ratio of consolidated debt to investment in hotels at cost of 50.5%; and - our ratio of EBITDA to interest expense for the six months then ended was 2.6-to-1. Our leverage could have important consequences for you. For example, it could: - make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the Notes; - limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if we need it, for working capital, our renovation, redevelopment and rebranding plans, acquisitions, debt service requirements or other purposes; - increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions as well as fluctuations in interest rates; - require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for operations, future business opportunities, payment of dividends or other purposes; - limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we compete; and - place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt. THE NOTES ARE EFFECTIVELY JUNIOR TO CERTAIN OF OUR AND OUR SUBSIDIARIES' EXISTING DEBT. The Old Notes are, and the New Notes will be, unsecured and will rank equally with our existing and future unsecured senior debt. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our and our consolidated subsidiaries' secured debt and to all other debt of our non-guarantor subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, we and our consolidated subsidiaries had approximately $1.4 billion of secured debt, all of which was mortgage and capitalized lease debt and effectively senior to the Notes to the extent of the value of the underlying assets. As of June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, our non-guarantor subsidiaries had less than $1 million of other debt. The Old Notes have, and the New Notes will have, substantially the same covenants and other terms and conditions as our existing 7 3/8% and 7 5/8% senior notes due 2004 and 2007, respectively, 9 1/2% senior notes due 2008 and our 8 1/2% senior notes due 2011. The senior notes due 2011 contain additional restrictions with respect to a special mandatory redemption. WE MAY BE UNABLE TO REALIZE THE ANTICIPATED BENEFITS OF OUR RENOVATIONS. The majority of MeriStar's and our hotels either recently have been, or are in the process of being, substantially renovated, redeveloped and, in some cases, rebranded. If the completion of the current renovation projects is significantly delayed, our operating results could be adversely affected. The recently completed and ongoing improvements may not achieve the results anticipated when we and/or MeriStar made the decision to invest in the improvements. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. Certain FelCor directors and executive officers. Six Continents Hotels currently manages 90 of our hotels. Richard C. North, who joined FelCor's board during 1998, is the Group Finance Director of Six Continents plc, formerly Bass plc, which is the parent of Six Continents Hotels and, together with its 20 27 affiliates, owns FelCor common stock and FelCor LP units aggregating approximately 16.1% of our outstanding common stock and units. Issues may arise under the leases, franchise agreements and management contracts, and in the allocation of acquisition and management opportunities, that present conflicts of interest due to the relationship of Mr. North to the companies with which he is associated. In the event we enter into new or additional hotel management contracts or other transactions with Six Continents Hotels, the interests of Mr. North, by virtue of his relationship with Six Continents plc, may conflict with our interests. For example, any increase in management fees payable to Six Continents Hotels may decrease our profits to the benefit of Six Continents Hotels. Also, in the selection of franchises under which our hotels will be operated, Mr. North by virtue of his relationship with Six Continents plc, may have interests that conflict with our interests. Upon completion of the MeriStar merger, two of our directors will serve on the board of directors of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, and one of those two directors, Paul Whetsell, will continue to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. In addition, Mr. Bruce Wiles, who has been offered employment with us as an executive officer following the MeriStar merger, owns 335,823 units of limited partnership interest in the operating partnership of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, with an aggregate value of $466,794, based on the closing price of $1.39 per share of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts common stock on August 30, 2001. Further, our relationship with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts will be governed by the terms of an intercompany agreement. The initial intercompany agreement was not negotiated on an arm's-length basis, although the recent amendment to the intercompany agreement in connection with the REIT Modernization Act was subject to an arm's-length negotiation. We may have conflicting views with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts on the manner in which our hotels are operated and managed, and with respect to acquisitions and dispositions. Conflicts may also arise in connection with the $50.0 million revolving credit facility, which had $36.0 million outstanding as of June 30, 2001, from MeriStar to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts and the parties' rights under the intercompany agreement. As a result, our directors and executive officers who serve at or have interests in MeriStar Hotels & Resorts may be presented with decisions which benefit us to the detriment of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts or benefit MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to our detriment. Inherent potential conflicts of interest will be present in all of the numerous transactions between us and MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. We generally will be obligated under each of our management agreements with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to pay a termination fee to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts if we elect to sell a hotel or if we elect not to restore a hotel after a casualty and do not replace it with another hotel subject to a management agreement with a fair market value equal to the fair market value of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts' remaining management fee due under the management agreement to be terminated. Where applicable, the termination fee is equal to the present value, using a discount rate of 10%, of the remaining payments under the agreement, assuming that MeriStar Hotels & Resorts would have been paid a management fee under the agreement to be terminated, based on the operating results for the 12 months preceding termination. Based on operating results for relevant hotels for the 12 months ended June 30, 2001, the aggregate termination fees payable under all of the management contracts would have ranged between $170 million and $180 million. A decision to sell a hotel may, therefore, have significantly different consequences for us and MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. We anticipate that any director who has a conflict of interest with respect to an issue presented to the FelCor board will abstain from voting upon that issue, although he will have no legal obligation to do so. We have no provisions in our bylaws or charter that require an interested director to abstain from voting upon an issue. We do not expect to add provisions in our charter and bylaws to this effect. Although each director has a fiduciary duty of loyalty to us, there is a risk that, should an interested director vote upon an issue in which he or one of his affiliates has an interest, his vote may reflect a bias that could be contrary to our best interests. In addition, even if an interested director abstains from voting, the director's participation in the meeting and discussion of an issue in which he or companies with which he is associated have an interest could influence the votes of other directors regarding the issue. 21 28 Our relationship with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts may restrict future opportunities. MeriStar is a party to an intercompany agreement with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, which will be assumed by us in the merger. The intercompany agreement will generally grant MeriStar Hotels & Resorts a right of first refusal with respect to any management opportunity at any of our properties that we do not elect to have managed by the hotel brand owner. Following the MeriStar merger, each of these opportunities will be made available to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts only if we determine that: - consistent with our status as a REIT, we must enter into a management agreement with an unaffiliated third party with respect to the property; - MeriStar Hotels & Resorts is qualified to be the manager of that property; and - the property is not to be operated by the owner of a hospitality brand under that brand. Although 90% of our current properties are managed by hotel brand owners, the intercompany agreement will limit our freedom to engage hotel management companies to manage our hotels that are not managed by hotel brand owners. In addition, under the intercompany agreement, each party must cooperate with the other party to effect any securities issuance of the other party by assisting in the preparation of any registration statement or other document required in connection with the issuance. Acquisition of lessees. As a result of the passage of the REIT Modernization Act, we were able to form taxable REIT subsidiaries, referred to as TRSs, to acquire the lessee's interest in our existing hotel leases and to serve as lessees for any hotels acquired after January 1, 2001. A TRS is a fully taxable corporation which may be owned 100% by a REIT. A TRS generally is permitted to engage in businesses, own assets and earn income that, if engaged in, owned or earned by the REIT, might jeopardize REIT status or result in the imposition of penalty taxes on the REIT. A TRS is permitted to lease hotels from the related REIT as long as it does not directly or indirectly operate or manage hotels, except through an independent hotel management company that satisfies applicable requirements under the federal income tax laws. A TRS generally is not allowed to act as a licensor or a franchisor of any brand name under which any hotel is operated. The acquisition of one of our primary lessees, DJONT Operations, L.L.C., or DJONT, was completed effective January 1, 2001. In consideration for the acquisition of DJONT, FelCor LP issued 416,667 units of limited partnership interest valued at approximately $10 million. The acquisition of DJONT required negotiations between us and the owners of DJONT, including Mr. Corcoran and the children of Charles N. Mathewson, a director of FelCor. The interests of Mr. Corcoran and Mr. Mathewson were in direct conflict with our interests in these negotiations and, accordingly, they abstained from participation in our board's discussion and vote on this matter. In December 2000, we sold one hotel and, effective January 1, 2001, completed the acquisition of leases with respect to 12 hotels that had been leased to and operated by Six Continents Hotels. In consideration for the acquisition of such lease and termination of the related management agreements, 413,585 shares of FelCor common stock valued at approximately $10 million were issued to Six Continents Hotels. We acquired the remaining 88 leases held by Six Continents Hotels, effective July 1, 2001. We have contributed these leases to our TRSs. In consideration for these 88 leases, we issued 100 shares of our common stock and caused our subsidiaries to agree to new long-term management agreements with subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels to manage these hotels. The acquisition of the leases held by Six Continents Hotels involved negotiations between us and Six Continents Hotels. Richard C. North, a director of FelCor, is the Group Finance Director of Six Continents plc. The interest of Six Continents plc in those negotiations was in direct conflict with our interests. Mr. North abstained from participating in any discussion or vote by our board relating to these transactions. Adverse tax consequences to some affiliates on a sale of some hotels. Messrs. Corcoran and Mathewson may incur additional tax liability if we sell our investments in six hotels that we acquired in July 1994 from partnerships controlled by these individuals. Consequently, our interests could differ from 22 29 Messrs. Corcoran's and Mathewson's interests in the event that we consider a sale of any of these hotels. Decisions regarding a sale of any of these six hotels must be made by a majority of the independent directors. WE HAVE RESTRICTIVE DEBT COVENANTS THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO RUN OUR BUSINESS. At June 30, 2001, we were a party to indentures governing an aggregate $1.4 billion in principal amount of our outstanding notes and agreements governing our $600 million line of credit. At June 30, 2001, MeriStar was a party to indentures governing an aggregate $856.3 million in principal amount of MeriStar's outstanding notes and agreements governing MeriStar's $500 million line of credit and $195 million in term loans. At June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, we would have had an aggregate of $1.9 billion in indebtedness under our senior notes and an aggregate of $330.4 million in debt under our line of credit. All of this indebtedness contains or will contain various restrictive covenants including, among others, provisions restricting the borrower from: - incurring indebtedness; - making distributions; - making investments; - engaging in transactions with affiliates; - incurring liens; - merging or consolidating with another person; - disposing of all or substantially all of the borrower's assets; or - permitting limitations on the ability of the borrower's subsidiaries to make payments to the borrower. These restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance our operations or engage in other business activities that may be in our best interest. For example, on a pro forma basis, under the most restrictive of these covenants that will be applicable to us, we would be able to incur no more than $611 million in additional indebtedness for the purpose of acquiring additional hotels and $280 million for purposes other than acquiring additional hotels following the merger, assuming the merger had occurred on June 30, 2001. In addition, some of these agreements require us to maintain certain specified financial ratios. Our ability to comply with these ratios going forward may be affected by events beyond our control. These covenants also may restrict our ability to engage in some transactions. In addition, any breach of these limitations could result in the acceleration of most of our debt, including the Notes. We may not be able to refinance or repay this debt in full under those circumstances. WE WILL ENCOUNTER INDUSTRY RELATED RISKS THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. The recent economic slowdown has adversely affected the RevPAR performance of MeriStar and us and, if it worsens or continues, these effects could be material. Both MeriStar and we experienced declines in revenue per available room, or RevPAR, during the second quarter of 2001, as compared to the same period of 2000, of 6.0% for MeriStar and of 7.4% for us. A sharper than anticipated decline in business travel was the primary cause of the decline, which was principally reflected in decreased occupancies. Both MeriStar and we expect that the hotel industry will experience a RevPAR decline for the full year 2001. The current economic slowdown and the resulting declines in RevPAR, which began in March 2001, are currently continuing. MeriStar and us both anticipate that third quarter RevPAR will be less than that of the prior year period and less than that of the second quarter of 2001. The decline in occupancy during the second and third quarters is expected to lead to declines in room rates as hotels compete more aggressively for guests. If the economic slowdown worsens or continues for a protracted 23 30 time, it could have a material adverse effect on the operations and earnings of MeriStar, us and the combined company. Investing in hotel assets involves special risks. We have invested only in hotel-related assets, and our hotels are subject to all of the risks common to the hotel industry. These risks could adversely affect hotel occupancy and the rates that can be charged for hotel rooms, and generally include: - competition from other hotels; - construction of more hotel rooms in a particular area than needed to meet demand; - increases in energy costs and other travel expenses that reduce business and leisure travel; - adverse effects of declines in general and local economic activity; - fluctuations in our revenue caused by the seasonal nature of the hotel industry; - adverse effects of a downturn in the hotel industry; and - risks generally associated with the ownership of hotels and real estate, as discussed below. We will have increased concentration of hotels in the upscale, full-service segment, which may increase our susceptibility to an economic downturn. As a percentage of total rooms, we currently have 18% of our hotels in the upscale, full-service segment, MeriStar currently has 65% of its hotels in this segment, and, as a result of the MeriStar merger, on a pro forma basis, we will have 38% of our hotels in this segment. In an economic downturn, hotels in this segment, which generally demand higher room rates, may be more susceptible to a decrease in revenues, as compared to hotels in other segments that have lower room rates. This characteristic may result from hotels in this segment generally targeting business and high-end leisure travelers. In periods of economic difficulties, business and leisure travelers may seek to reduce travel costs by limiting trips or seeking to reduce costs on the trips that are taken, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations. We will have geographic concentration in three states which may create risks of regional economic and weather conditions. We derived approximately 48% of our revenues for the twelve months ended June 30, 2001 from hotels located in three states: California, Florida and Texas. As a result of the MeriStar merger, on a pro forma basis, the revenue from these three states for the twelve months ended June 30, 2001, would be reallocated to reduce the reliance on any one state but, collectively, would still account for approximately 48% of our revenues. Therefore, following the merger, adverse economic or weather conditions in these states will have a greater effect on us than similar conditions in other states. We could face increased competition. Each of our hotels competes with other hotels in its geographic area. A number of additional hotel rooms have been or may be built in a number of the geographic areas in which our hotels are located, which could adversely affect the results of operations of these hotels. An oversupply of hotel rooms could adversely affect both occupancy and rates in the markets in which our hotels are located. A significant increase in the supply of midprice, upscale and upper upscale hotel rooms and suites, if demand fails to increase proportionately, could have a severe adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Acquisition growth opportunities have decreased. There has been substantial consolidation in, and capital allocated to, the U.S. lodging industry since the early 1990's. This generally has resulted in higher prices for hotels. In addition, current market prices of FelCor's common stock make its cost of equity capital relatively high. These conditions have resulted in fewer attractive acquisition opportunities. An important part of our historical growth strategy has been the acquisition and, in many instances, the renovation and repositioning of hotels at less than replacement cost. Continued industry consolidation and competition for acquisitions could adversely affect our growth prospects. We compete for hotel investment opportunities with other companies, some of which have greater financial or other resources than we have. Certain competitors may have a lower cost of capital and may be able to pay higher prices or assume greater risks than would be prudent for us to pay or assume. 24 31 We are subject to possible adverse effects of franchise and licensing agreement requirements. Substantially all our hotels are operated under existing franchise or license agreements with nationally recognized hotel brands. Each license agreement requires that the licensed hotel be maintained and operated in accordance with specific standards and restrictions in order to maintain uniformity within the franchisor system. Compliance with these standards could require a franchisee to incur significant expenses or capital expenditures, which could adversely affect our results of operations and ability to make payments on indebtedness. Also, changes to these standards could conflict with a hotel's specific business plan or limit a franchisee's ability to make improvements or modifications to a hotel without the consent of the franchisor. If a franchise license terminates due to our failure to make required improvements, we may be liable to the franchisor for a termination payment. These termination payments vary by franchise agreement and hotel. The loss of a substantial number of franchise licenses and the related termination payments could have a material adverse effect on our business because of the loss of associated name recognition, marketing support and centralized reservation systems provided by the franchisor. The franchise agreements could also expire or terminate, with specified renewal rights, at various times. As a condition to renew, the franchise agreements could involve a renewal application process that would require substantial capital improvements, for which we would be responsible, to be made to the land or hotels. As a condition to the MeriStar merger, both MeriStar and we must obtain the consent of a number of MeriStar's franchisors, and obtaining those consents may require additional expenditures or impose additional conditions. If required consents are not obtained, the MeriStar merger may not be completed. If the failure to obtain one or more consents is waived and the MeriStar merger completed, the related franchises may be terminated, and we may be liable to the franchisor for termination payments. Assuming all of the MeriStar franchises were terminated on June 30, 2001, MeriStar and we estimate that the aggregate of these termination payments, if required, would be in the range of $120 million to $130 million. The loss of a substantial number of franchises and the related termination payments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We will be subject to the continued risks of brand concentrations under a limited number of brands. Following the MeriStar merger, we will continue to be subject to the potential risks associated with concentration of our hotels under a limited number of brands. A negative public image or other adverse event which becomes associated with the brand could adversely affect hotels operated under that brand. The following percentages of our revenues are expected to be generated by hotels operated under each of the indicated brands, based on revenues for the twelve months ended June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis: - Embassy Suites 25.4% - Holiday Inns 21.0% - Sheraton and Sheraton Suites 9.2% - Crowne Plaza 8.8% - Hilton and Hilton Suites 8.4% Should any of these brands suffer a significant decline in popularity with the traveling public, it could affect our revenues and profitability. We are subject to the risks of hotel operations. Prior to January 1, 2001, substantially all of MeriStar's and our hotels were leased to unaffiliated third parties under leases providing for the payment of rent based, in part, upon revenues from the hotels. Accordingly, our operating risks were essentially limited to changes in hotel revenues and to the lessees' ability to pay the rent due under the leases. On January 1, 2001, TRSs of MeriStar acquired the leaseholds of substantially all of MeriStar's hotels, and we purchased the leaseholds of 98 of our hotels. Effective July 1, 2001, we acquired 88 leaseholds held by Six 25 32 Continents Hotels. As a result of these acquisitions, we became subject to the risk of fluctuating hotel operating expenses at our hotels, including but not limited to: - wage and benefit costs; - repair and maintenance expenses; - the costs of gas and electricity, which have increased significantly in recent months; - the costs of liability insurance; and - other operating expenses. These operating expenses are more difficult to predict and control than revenue, resulting in an increased risk of volatility in our results of operations. The lodging business is seasonal in nature. Generally, hotel revenues are greater in the second and third calendar quarters than in the first and fourth calendar quarters although this may not be true for hotels in major tourist destinations. Revenues for hotels in tourist areas generally are substantially greater during tourist season than other times of the year. Seasonal variations in revenue at our hotels can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in our revenues. Quarterly earnings also may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, such as extreme weather conditions, economic factors and other considerations affecting travel. We lack control over the management and operations of our hotels. We are dependent on the ability of unaffiliated third party managers to operate and manage our hotels. In order to maintain REIT status, we cannot operate our hotels or any subsequently acquired hotels. As a result, we are unable to directly implement strategic business decisions for the operation and marketing of our hotels, such as decisions with respect to the setting of room rates, food and beverage operations and similar matters. OUR ABILITY TO GROW MAY BE LIMITED BY OUR ABILITY TO ATTRACT DEBT FINANCING. Recently, we focused on our internal growth strategy, which includes the renovation, redevelopment and rebranding of our hotels to achieve improved revenue performance. We may not be able to fund growth solely from cash provided from operating activities because we must distribute at least 90% of our taxable income each year to maintain our status as a REIT. Consequently, we rely upon the availability of debt or equity capital to fund hotel acquisitions and improvements, and we may be dependent upon our ability to attract debt financing from public or institutional lenders. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting sufficient debt financing to fund future growth at an acceptable cost, or at all. In addition, we currently have a policy of limiting debt to not more than 55% of our investment in hotel assets, at cost. This policy is a board policy only and not a requirement contained in our organizational documents. Accordingly, the policy may be modified or waived by the board, which it has done previously, increasing the limitation from 40% in June 1998 to 50% in February 2000 and to its current 55% in May 2001. Unless further waived or modified by our board of directors, this limitation could also limit our ability to incur additional debt to fund our continued growth. At June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, our consolidated debt represented 50.5% of our investment in hotels at cost. WE ARE SUBJECT TO POTENTIAL TAX RISKS. The federal income tax laws governing REITs are complex. FelCor has operated and intends to continue to operate in a manner that is intended to qualify it as a REIT under the federal income tax laws. The REIT qualification requirements are extremely complicated, and interpretations of the federal income tax laws governing qualification as a REIT are limited. Accordingly, FelCor cannot be certain that it has been or will continue to be successful in operating so as to qualify as a REIT. At any time, new laws, interpretations or court decisions may change the federal tax laws relating to, or the federal income tax consequences of, qualification as a REIT. 26 33 Failure to make required distributions would subject FelCor to tax. Each year, a REIT must pay out to its shareholders at least 90%, or 95% for taxable years prior to 2001, of its taxable income, other than any net capital gain. To the extent that FelCor satisfies the applicable distribution requirement, but distributes less than 100% of its taxable income, it will be subject to federal corporate income tax on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, FelCor will be subject to a 4% nondeductible tax if the actual amount it pays out to its shareholders in a calendar year is less than a minimum amount specified under federal tax laws. FelCor's only source of funds to make such distributions comes from distributions to FelCor from FelCor LP. Accordingly, FelCor may be required to borrow money or sell assets to make distributions sufficient to enable it to pay out enough of its taxable income to satisfy the applicable distribution requirement and to avoid corporate income tax and the 4% tax in a particular year. Failure to qualify as a REIT would subject FelCor to federal income tax. If FelCor fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, FelCor would be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income. We might need to borrow money or sell hotels in order to pay any such tax. If we cease to be a REIT, we no longer would be required to distribute most of our taxable income to our shareholders. Unless our failure to qualify as a REIT were excused under federal income tax laws, we could not re-elect REIT status until the fifth calendar year following the year in which we failed to qualify. In addition, FelCor's or MeriStar's failure to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year prior to or ending on completion of the merger could jeopardize FelCor's REIT status after the merger and/or cause FelCor to be subject to federal income tax. Failure to have distributed earnings and profits of Bristol Hotel Company or CapStar Hotel Company in 1998 would cause FelCor or MeriStar to fail to qualify as a REIT. At the end of any taxable year, a REIT may not have any accumulated earnings and profits, described generally for federal income tax purposes as cumulative undistributed net income, from a non-REIT corporation. In connection with the merger of Bristol Hotel Company, or Bristol, with and into FelCor in 1998, Arthur Andersen LLP prepared and provided to FelCor its computation of Bristol's accumulated earnings and profits through the date of the merger, and FelCor made a corresponding special one-time distribution to its stockholders. In connection with the merger of CapStar Hotel Company, or CapStar, with and into American General Hospitality Corporation, the predecessor to MeriStar, in 1998, KPMG LLP prepared and provided to MeriStar its computation of CapStar's accumulated earnings and profits through the date of the merger, and the distribution of the stock of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. by CapStar prior to the CapStar merger was determined to be sufficient to reduce the earnings and profits of CapStar to zero at the time of the CapStar merger. However, the determination of accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes is extremely complex and the computations of Arthur Andersen LLP and KPMG LLP are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service. Should the Internal Revenue Service successfully assert either that Bristol's accumulated earnings and profits were greater than the amount so distributed by FelCor or that CapStar's accumulated earnings and profits were greater than the amount so distributed by CapStar, FelCor may fail to qualify as a REIT. Alternatively, the Internal Revenue Service may permit FelCor to avoid losing its REIT status by paying a deficiency dividend, on MeriStar's or its own behalf, to eliminate any remaining accumulated earnings and profits of Bristol or CapStar. There can be no assurance, however, that the Internal Revenue Service would not assert loss of REIT status as the penalty for failing to distribute the accumulated earnings and profits of Bristol or CapStar in 1998. A sale of assets acquired from Bristol or CapStar within ten years after the respective merger will result in corporate income tax. If we sell any asset that we acquired from Bristol within ten years after our merger with Bristol, or we sell any asset that MeriStar acquired from CapStar within ten years after its merger with CapStar, and we recognize a taxable gain on the sale, we will be taxed at the highest corporate rate on an amount equal to the lesser of: - the amount of gain that we recognize at the time of the sale; or - the amount of gain that MeriStar or we, as appropriate, would have recognized if MeriStar or we had sold the asset at the time that MeriStar or we acquired the asset from Bristol or CapStar, as appropriate, for its then fair market value. 27 34 The sales of the Bristol and CapStar hotels that have occurred to date have not resulted in any material amount of tax liability. If we are successful in selling the remaining 15 hotels designated as assets held for sale, we could incur corporate income tax with respect to the related built-in gain, the amount of which cannot yet be determined. DEPARTURE OF KEY PERSONNEL, INCLUDING MR. CORCORAN, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS. WE WILL ENCOUNTER RISKS THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP. General Risks. Our investments in hotels are subject to the numerous risks generally associated with owning real estate, including among others: - adverse changes in general or local economic or real estate market conditions; - changes in zoning laws; - changes in traffic patterns and neighborhood characteristics; - increases in assessed valuation and tax rates; - increases in the cost of property insurance; - governmental regulations and fiscal policies; - the potential for uninsured or underinsured property losses; - the impact of environmental laws and regulations; and - other circumstances beyond our control. Moreover, real estate investments are relatively illiquid, and we may not be able to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions. Compliance with environmental laws may adversely affect our financial condition. Owners of real estate are subject to numerous federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations. Under these laws and regulations, a current or former owner of real estate may be liable for the costs of remediating hazardous substances found on its property, whether or not it was responsible for their presence. In addition, if an owner of real property arranges for the disposal of hazardous substances at another site, it may also be liable for the costs of remediating the disposal site, even if it did not own or operate the disposal site. Such liability may be imposed without regard to fault or the legality of a party's conduct and may, in certain circumstances, be joint and several. A property owner may also be liable to third parties for personal injuries or property damage sustained as a result of its release of hazardous or toxic substances, including asbestos-containing materials, into the environment. Environmental laws and regulations may require us to incur substantial expenses and limit the use of our properties. We could have substantial liability for a failure to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations, which may be enforced by the government or, in certain instances, by private parties. The existence of hazardous substances on a property can also adversely affect the value of, and the owner's ability to use, sell or borrow against, the property. We cannot provide assurances that future or amended laws or regulations, or more stringent interpretations or enforcement of existing environmental requirements, will not impose any material environmental liability, or that the environmental condition or liability relating to the hotels will not be affected by new information or changed circumstances, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of such hotels, such as the presence of leaking underground storage tanks, or by the actions of unrelated third parties. Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act may adversely affect our financial condition. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all public accommodations, including hotels, are required to meet certain federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. We believe that our hotels substantially comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. However, a 28 35 determination that the hotels are not in compliance with that Act could result in liability for both governmental fines and damages to private parties. If we were required to make unanticipated major modifications to the hotels to comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, it could adversely affect our ability to pay our obligations. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, COURTS MAY VOID THE GUARANTEES UNDER FRAUDULENT TRANSFER LAWS. Federal and state fraudulent conveyance laws allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require noteholders to return payments received from guarantors in the event of the bankruptcy or other financial difficulty of the subsidiary guarantor. Under federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a guarantee of the Notes could be voided, or claims in respect of a guarantee could be subordinated to all other debt of the guarantor, if, among other things, at the time the guarantor incurred the debt evidenced by its guarantee, the guarantor: - received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of such guarantee; and - was insolvent or was rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence; or - was engaged in a business or transaction for which the guarantor's remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or - intended to incur, or believed (or reasonably should have believed) that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. In addition, any payment by that guarantor pursuant to its guarantee could be voided and required to be returned to the guarantor, or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the guarantor. The measure of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor of the Notes would be considered insolvent if: - the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets; or - the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and matured; or - it could not pay its debts as they become due. A court is likely to find that a guarantor of the Notes did not receive fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value for its guarantee to the extent that its liability under the guarantee is greater than the direct benefit it received from the issuance of Notes. By its terms, each guarantee of the Notes will limit the liability of the guarantor to the maximum amount that it can pay without the guarantee being deemed a fraudulent transfer. A court may not give effect to this limitation on liability. In that event, a court may find that the issuance of the guarantee rendered the subsidiary guarantor insolvent. If a court avoids the guarantee or holds it unenforceable, you will cease to have a claim against the guarantor and will be solely a creditor of FelCor LP. If the limitation on liability is effective, the amount that the guarantor is found to have guaranteed might be so low that there will not be sufficient funds to pay the Notes in full. YOU CANNOT BE SURE THAT AN ACTIVE PUBLIC TRADING MARKET WILL EXIST FOR THE NEW NOTES. There is currently a limited trading market for the Notes. We do not intend to list the New Notes on any securities exchange. Although we expect the New Notes to be eligible for trading in The PORTAL Market, we cannot assure you that an active trading market for the New Notes will develop. The placement agent has advised us that it intends to make a market in the New Notes. However, it is not obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. 29 36 The liquidity of any market for the New Notes will depend upon various factors, including: - the number of holders of the New Notes; - the interest of securities dealers in making a market for the New Notes; - the overall market for high yield securities; - our financial performance and prospects; and - the prospects for companies in our industry generally. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop for the New Notes. If the New Notes are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from the initial offering price of the Old Notes, depending upon prevailing interest rates and other factors including those listed above. Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the Notes. Any market for the New Notes may be subject to similar disruptions. Any such disruptions may adversely affect you as a holder of the New Notes. 30 37 THE EXCHANGE OFFER PURPOSE AND EFFECT We sold the Old Notes on January 22, 2001 to Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown as the initial purchaser, pursuant to a purchase agreement. The initial purchaser subsequently resold the Old Notes under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. As part of the offering of the Old Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement. The registration rights agreement requires, unless the exchange offer is not permitted by applicable law or SEC policy, that we - use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective within 180 days following January 22, 2001; and - upon effectiveness of the registration statement, commence the exchange offer and keep the exchange offer open for at least 20 business days and not more than 30 business days. Except as provided below, upon the completion of the exchange offer, our obligations with respect to the registration of the Old Notes and the New Notes will terminate. A copy of the registration rights agreement has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, and this summary of the material provisions of the registration rights agreement does not purport to be complete. Because the exchange offer was not consummated by July 21, 2001, the interest rate on the Old Notes has increased to 10.0% per annum until such exchange offer has been completed in accordance with the terms of the registration rights agreement. Following the completion of the exchange offer, except as set forth in the paragraph immediately below, holders of Old Notes not tendered will not have any further registration rights and those Old Notes will continue to be subject to certain restrictions on transfer. Accordingly, the liquidity of the market for the Old Notes could be adversely affected upon consummation of the exchange offer. In order to participate in the exchange offer, a holder must represent to us, among other things, that (i) the New Notes acquired pursuant to the exchange offer are being obtained in the ordinary course of business of the holder, (ii) the holder is not engaging in and does not intend to engage in a distribution of the New Notes, (iii) the holder does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the New Notes and (iv) the holder is not an "affiliate," as defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, of FelCor LP, FelCor or the subsidiary guarantors. Under certain circumstances specified in the registration rights agreement, we may be required to file a "shelf" registration statement for a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act in respect of resales of the Old Notes. See "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees -- Registration Rights." For purposes of the foregoing, "Transfer Restricted Securities" means each Old Note until (i) the date on which such Old Note has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a New Note in the exchange offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the exchange offer of an Old Note for a New Note, the date on which such New Note is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of this prospectus, (iii) the date on which such Old Note has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with such "shelf" registration statement or (iv) the date on which such Old Note is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or may be distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. See "-- Procedures for Tendering Old Notes." Based on an interpretation by the SEC's staff set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties unrelated to us, we believe that, with the exceptions set forth below, New Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for Old Notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than any holder which is an "affiliate" of FelCor, FelCor LP or the subsidiary guarantors within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, or a broker-dealer who purchased Old Notes directly from FelCor LP to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption promulgated under the Securities Act) without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that the New Notes are acquired in the ordinary course 31 38 of business of the holder and the holder does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of such New Notes. Any holder who tenders in the exchange offer for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the New Notes cannot rely on this interpretation by the SEC's staff and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction. Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes, where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See "Plan of Distribution." Broker-dealers who acquired Old Notes directly from us and not as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may not rely on the SEC staff's interpretations discussed above or participate in the exchange offer and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in order to sell the Old Notes. CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO EXCHANGE OLD NOTES Following the completion of the exchange offer, holders of Old Notes who did not tender their Old Notes, or who did not properly tender their Old Notes, will not have any further registration rights and such Old Notes will continue to be subject to restrictions on transfer. Accordingly, the liquidity of the market for a holder's Old Notes could be adversely affected upon expiration of the exchange offer if such holder elects to not participate in the exchange offer. TERMS OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the accompanying letter of transmittal, we will accept for exchange any and all Old Notes that are validly tendered on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on the expiration date. We will issue $1,000 principal amount of New Notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of the outstanding Old Notes accepted in the exchange offer. Holders who have tendered their Old Notes may withdraw their tender of Old Notes at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of Old Notes being tendered for exchange. However, the exchange offer is subject to the terms and provisions of the registration rights agreement. See "-- Conditions of the Exchange Offer." Old Notes may be tendered only in multiples of $1,000. Subject to the foregoing, holders of Old Notes may tender less than the aggregate principal amount represented by the Old Notes they hold, provided that they appropriately indicate this fact on the letter of transmittal accompanying the tendered Old Notes. The form and terms of the New Notes are substantially the same as the form and terms of the Old Notes, except that the New Notes have been registered under the Securities Act and will not bear legends restricting their transfer. The New Notes will evidence the same debt as the Old Notes and will be issued pursuant to, and entitled to the benefits of, the indenture pursuant to which the Old Notes were issued. As of the date of this prospectus, $100 million in aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes is outstanding. As of , 2001, Cede & Co., was the only registered holder of the Old Notes. Cede & Co. held the Old Notes for of its participants. We have fixed the close of business on as the record date for purposes of determining the persons to whom we will mail this prospectus and the letter of transmittal initially. Only a holder of the Old Notes, or such holder's legal representative or attorney-in-fact, may participate in the exchange offer. We will not fix a record date for determining holders of the Old Notes entitled to participate in the exchange offer. We believe that, as of the date of this prospectus, no such holder is our affiliate, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act. We will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered Old Notes when, as and if we have given oral or written notice thereof to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders of Old Notes and for the purpose of receiving the New Notes from us. 32 39 If any tendered Old Notes are not accepted for exchange because of an invalid tender, the occurrence of other events set forth in this prospectus or otherwise, the certificates for any such unaccepted Old Notes will be returned, without expense, to the tendering holder as promptly as practicable after the expiration date. Holders who tender Old Notes in the exchange offer will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchange of Old Notes pursuant to the exchange offer. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes, in connection with the exchange offer. See "-- Fees and Expenses." EXPIRATION DATE; EXTENSIONS; AMENDMENTS The expiration date shall be 2001, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, unless we, in our sole discretion, extend the exchange offer, in which case the expiration date shall be the latest date and time to which the exchange offer is extended, but shall not be later than , 2001. In order to extend the exchange offer, we will notify the exchange agent of any extension by oral or written notice and will make a public announcement thereof, each prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, - to delay accepting any Old Notes; - to extend the exchange offer; - if any of the conditions set forth below under "-- Conditions of the Exchange Offer" shall not have been satisfied, to terminate the exchange offer, by giving oral or written notice of such delay, extension, or termination to the exchange agent; and - to amend the terms of the exchange offer in any manner. If we amend the exchange offer in a manner we determine to constitute a material change, we will promptly disclose such amendments by means of a prospectus supplement that we will distribute to the registered holders of the Old Notes. Modification of the exchange offer, including, but not limited to, - extension of the period during which the exchange offer is open; and - satisfaction of the conditions set forth below under "-- Conditions of the Exchange Offer" may require that at least five business days remain in the exchange offer. CONDITIONS OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER Notwithstanding any other provision of the exchange offer, we shall not be required to accept for exchange, or to issue New Notes in exchange for, any Old Notes and may terminate or amend the exchange offer if at any time before the acceptance of such Old Notes for exchange or the exchange of the New Notes for the Old Notes, we determine that the exchange offer violates applicable law, any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC or any order of any governmental agency or court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing conditions are for our sole benefit and may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such condition or may be waived by us, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time in our sole discretion. The failure by us at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any such right and each such right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time from time to time. In addition, we will not accept for exchange any Old Notes tendered, and no New Notes will be issued in exchange for any such Old Notes, if at such time any stop order shall be threatened or in effect 33 40 with respect to the registration statement, of which this prospectus constitutes a part, or the qualification of the indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. In any such event we are required to use every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any stop order at the earliest possible time. ACCRUED INTEREST The New Notes will bear interest at a rate equal to 9 1/2% per annum, which interest shall accrue from March 15, 2001 or from the most recent interest payment date with respect to the Old Notes to which interest was paid or duly provided for. See "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees -- Principal, Maturity and Interest." PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING OLD NOTES Only a holder of Old Notes may tender the Old Notes in the exchange offer. To tender in the exchange offer a holder must (a) except as set forth under "-- Book Entry Transfer," complete, sign, and date the letter of transmittal, or a copy thereof, have the signatures thereon guaranteed if required by the letter of transmittal, and mail or otherwise deliver the letter of transmittal or copy to the exchange agent prior to the expiration date, or (b) tender through DTC pursuant DTC's Automated Tender Offer Program, or ATOP. In addition, unless the holder is tendering through ATOP, (i) certificates for the Old Notes must be received by the exchange agent along with the letter of transmittal prior to the expiration date, (ii) a timely confirmation of a book-entry transfer, called a book-entry confirmation, of such Old Notes, if that procedure is available, into the Exchange Agent's account at DTC, which is a book-entry transfer facility, pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described below, must be received by the exchange agent prior to the expiration date or (iii) the holder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. To be tendered effectively, the letter of transmittal and other required documents must be received by the exchange agent at the address set forth under "-- The Exchange Agent; Assistance" prior to the expiration date. The exchange agent and DTC have confirmed that the exchange offer is eligible for ATOP. Accordingly, DTC participants may electronically transmit their acceptance of the exchange offer by causing DTC to transfer their Old Notes to the exchange agent in accordance with ATOP procedures for such a transfer. DTC will then send an agent's message (as described below) to the exchange agent. Beneficial holders desiring to tender their Old Notes on the expiration date should note that such beneficial holders must allow sufficient time for completion of the ATOP procedures during normal business hours of DTC, and prior to the time that the exchange offer expires, on such date. The term "agent's message" means a message, transmitted by DTC to and received by the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the tendering participant, which acknowledgment states that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal, and that the Company may enforce such letter of transmittal, as the case may be, against such participant. The tender by a holder that is not withdrawn before the expiration date will constitute an agreement between that holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the letter of transmittal. THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF OLD NOTES AND THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT IS AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF THE HOLDER. INSTEAD OF DELIVERY BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT HOLDERS USE AN OVERNIGHT OR HAND DELIVERY SERVICE. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ASSURE DELIVERY TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT BEFORE THE EXPIRATION DATE. NO LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR OLD NOTES SHOULD BE SENT TO US. HOLDERS MAY REQUEST THEIR RESPECTIVE BROKERS, DEALERS, COMMERCIAL BANKS, TRUSTS COMPANIES OR NOMINEES TO EFFECT THESE TRANSACTIONS FOR SUCH HOLDERS. 34 41 Any beneficial owner whose Old Notes are registered in the name of a broker-dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee and who wishes to tender should contact the registered holder promptly and instruct the registered holder to tender on the beneficial owner's behalf. If the beneficial owner wishes to tender on the registered owner's behalf, the beneficial owner must, prior to completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering the registered owner's Old Notes, either make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the Old Notes in the beneficial owner's name or obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered owner. The transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time. Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may be, must be guaranteed by an eligible institution (as described) unless Old Notes tendered pursuant to the letter are tendered (i) by a registered holder who has not completed the box entitled "Special Registration Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on the letter of transmittal or (ii) for the account of an eligible institution. If signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may be, are required to be guaranteed, the guarantee must be by any eligible guarantor institution that is a member of or participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program or an "eligible guarantor institution" with the meaning on Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act, each of which is an "eligible institution." If the letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder of any Old Notes listed therein, the Old Notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power, signed by the registered holder as that registered holder's name appears on the Old Notes. If the letter of transmittal or any Old Notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to so act must be submitted with the letter of transmittal unless waived by us. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt), acceptance, and withdrawal of tendered Old Notes will be determined by us in our sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. FelCor reserves the absolute right to reject any and all Old Notes not properly tendered or any Old Notes FelCor's acceptance of which would, in the opinion of counsel for us, be unlawful. FelCor also reserves the right to waive any defects, irregularities or conditions of tender as to particular Old Notes. FelCor's interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the instructions in the letter of transmittal, shall be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of Old Notes must be cured within such time as we shall determine. Although we intend to notify holders of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of Old Notes, neither FelCor, the exchange agent, nor any other person shall incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Tenders of Old Notes will not be deemed to have been made until such defects or irregularities have been cured or waived. Any Old Notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the Exchange Agent to the tendering holders, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, as soon as practicable following , 2001, unless the exchange offer is extended. In addition, we reserve the right in our sole discretion to purchase or make offers to purchase any Old Notes that remain outstanding after the expiration date or, as set forth under "-- Conditions to the Exchange Offer," to terminate the exchange offer and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, purchase Old Notes in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The terms of any such purchases or offers could differ from the terms of the exchange offer. By tendering, each holder will represent to us that, among other things, (i) the New Notes acquired pursuant to the exchange offer are being obtained in the ordinary course of business of the person receiving such New Notes, whether or not such person is the registered holder, (ii) the holder is not engaging in and does not intend to engage in a distribution of such New Notes, (iii) the holder does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of such New 35 42 Notes and (iv) the holder is not an "affiliate," as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of FelCor, FelCor LP or any of the subsidiary guarantors. In all cases, issuance of New Notes for Old Notes that are accepted for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer will be made only after timely receipt by the exchange agent of certificates for such Old Notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of such Old Notes into the exchange agent's account at the book-entry transfer facility, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or, with respect to the DTC and its participants, electronic instructions in which the tendering holder acknowledges its receipt of an agreement to be bound by the letter of transmittal), and all other required documents. If any tendered Old Notes are not accepted for any reason set forth in the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or if Old Notes are submitted for a greater principal amount than the holder desires to exchange, such unaccepted or non-exchanged Old Notes will be returned without expense to the tendering holder thereof (or, in the case of Old Notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at the book-entry transfer facility pursuant to the book-entry transfer procedures described below, such nonexchanged Old Notes will be credited to an account maintained with such book-entry transfer facility) as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes, where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See "Plan of Distribution." BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER The exchange agent will make a request to establish an account with respect to the Old Notes at the book-entry transfer facility for purposes of the exchange offer within two business days after the date of this prospectus, and any financial institution that is a participant in the book-entry transfer facility's systems may make book-entry delivery of Old Notes being tendered by causing the book-entry transfer facility to transfer such Old Notes into the Exchange Agent's account at the book-entry transfer facility in accordance with such book-entry transfer facility's procedures for transfer. Although delivery of Old Notes may be effected through book-entry transfer at the book-entry transfer facility, the letter of transmittal or copy thereof, with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must, in any case other than as set forth in the following paragraph, be transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at the address set forth under "-- Exchange Agent; Assistance" on or prior to the expiration date or the guaranteed delivery procedures described below must be complied with. Holders who are tendering by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent's account at DTC may execute their tender through ATOP by transmitting their acceptance to DTC in accordance with DTC's ATOP procedures; DTC will then verify the acceptance, execute a book-entry delivery to the exchange agent's account at DTC and send an agent's message to the exchange agent. Delivery of the agent's message by DTC to the exchange agent will satisfy the terms of the exchange offer in lieu of execution and delivery of a letter of transmittal by the participant identified in the agent's message. Accordingly, the letter of transmittal need not be completed by a holder tendering through ATOP. GUARANTEED DELIVERY PROCEDURES Holders who wish to tender their Old Notes and whose Old Notes are not immediately available, or who cannot deliver their Old Notes or any other documents required by the letter of transmittal to the Exchange Agent prior to the expiration date, may tender their Old Notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal. Pursuant to such procedures: (1) the holder tenders through an eligible institution and signs a notice of guaranteed delivery; (2) on or prior to the expiration date, the exchange agent receives from the holder and the eligible institution a written or facsimile copy of a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form provided by us, setting forth the name and address of 36 43 the holder, the certificate number or numbers of the tendered Old Notes, and the principal amount of tendered Old Notes, stating that the tender is being made thereby and guaranteeing that, within five business days after the date of delivery of the notice of guaranteed delivery, the tendered Old Notes, a duly executed letter of transmittal and any other required documents will be deposited by the eligible institution with the exchange agent; and (3) such properly completed and executed documents required by the letter of transmittal and the tendered Old Notes in proper form for transfer are received by the exchange agent within five business days after the expiration date. Any holder who wishes to tender Old Notes pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures described above must ensure that the exchange agent receives the notice of guaranteed delivery and letter of transmittal relating to such Old Notes prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. ACCEPTANCE OF OLD NOTES FOR EXCHANGE; DELIVERY OF NEW NOTES Upon satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions to the exchange offer, we will accept any and all Old Notes that are properly tendered in the exchange offer prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. The New Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer will be delivered promptly after acceptance of the Old Notes. For purposes of the exchange offer, we shall be deemed to have accepted validly tendered Old Notes, when, as, and if we have given oral or written notice thereof to the exchange agent. In all cases, issuances of New Notes for Old Notes that are accepted for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer will be made only after the exchange agent timely receives such Old Notes, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents; provided, however, we reserve the absolute right to waive any defects or irregularities in the tender or conditions of the exchange offer. If we do not accept any tendered Old Notes for any reason, we will return such unaccepted Old Notes without expense to the tendering holder thereof as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS Holders may withdraw tenders of Old Notes at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. For the withdrawal to be effective, the exchange agent must receive a written notice of withdrawal at its address set forth on the back cover page of this prospectus. The notice of withdrawal must: - specify the name of the person, the depositor, who tendered the Old Notes to be withdrawn or, in the case of Old Notes tendered by book-entry transfer, the name of the participant for whose account such Old Notes were tendered and such participant's account number at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn Old Notes; - identify the Old Notes to be withdrawn, including the certificate number or numbers and principal amount of withdrawn Old Notes; - be signed by the holder in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which such Old Notes were tendered, including any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by a bond power in the name of the person withdrawing the tender, in satisfactory form as determined by us in our sole discretion, duly executed by the registered holder, with the signature thereon guaranteed by an eligible institution together with the other documents required upon transfer by the indenture or, in the case of Old Notes tendered by a DTC participant through ATOP, be signed by such participant in the same manner as the participant's name is listed on the applicable agent's message; and - specify the name in which such Old Notes are to be registered, if different from the person who deposited the Old Notes, pursuant to such documents of transfer. 37 44 We shall determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt, of such withdrawal notices in our sole discretion. The Old Notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. Any Old Notes which have been tendered for exchange but which are withdrawn will be returned to their holder, without cost to such holder, as soon as practicable after withdrawal. Properly withdrawn Old Notes may be retendered by following one of the procedures described under "-- Procedures for Tendering Old Notes" at any time on or prior to the expiration date.

We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offer and will not make any payments to brokers, dealers or others soliciting acceptance of the exchange offer. We, however, will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. 38 45 We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of Old Notes pursuant to the exchange offer. If, however, a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of Old Notes pursuant to the exchange offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder. ACCOUNTING TREATMENT We will record the New Notes at the same carrying value as the Old Notes, as reflected in our accounting records on the date of the exchange. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes. We will amortize expenses of the exchange offer over the term of the New Notes. 39 46 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the capitalization of FelCor LP at June 30, 2001 on an actual basis and on a pro forma basis to give effect to: - the completion of the MeriStar merger and the related financings and the application of the proceeds; and - the completion of the acquisition of the Six Continents Hotels leases covering 88 hotels.

44 51 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) --------------- (1) Represents the historical results of operations of FelCor LP for the six months ended June 30, 2001, excluding extraordinary items. Effective January 1, 2001, with the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, FelCor LP had completed transactions that resulted in its newly formed taxable REIT subsidiaries acquiring leases for 96 hotels that were previously leased to either DJONT or Six Continents Hotels, accordingly, the revenues and expenses associated with these hotels are included in FelCor LP's historical consolidated statement of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2001. (2) Represents the historical results of operations of FelCor LP's hotels leased to subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels for the six months ended June 30, 2001, excluding extraordinary items. (3) Represents the elimination of historical percentage lease revenue and expense between FelCor LP and Six Continents Hotels. The expense elimination also includes a $170,000 adjustment of an estimate of property tax expense. (4) Represents the adjustment required to record the management fees at their contractual rates. In the negotiation for the acquisition of the 88 leases and the new long-term management contracts with Six Continents Hotels, FelCor LP was able to spread the cost of the lease acquisition over the term of the management agreement, by agreeing to pay management fees that are higher than those paid by FelCor to other managers for comparable services. Management fees for the 88 hotels are broken out between a base fee, computed at 2% of total hotel revenue plus 5% of room revenue, and an incentive fee, computed using a formula incorporating hotel net operating income and FelCor LP's return on its investment in these hotels. The new management contracts transfer the operating risk and reward of the hotels to FelCor LP, as compared to the percentage leases, under which FelCor LP received percentage lease revenue based solely on hotel revenues. Additionally, under the new management contracts, FelCor LP has the ability to terminate management contracts for hotels by substituting hotels with similar revenue streams. (5) Represents the elimination of historical franchise fees. These agreements have been replaced with management contracts. (6) Represents the elimination of lease termination costs associated with the acquisition of DJONT and Six Continents Hotels leases in January 2001. (B) Represents MeriStar LP's historical results of operations, excluding extraordinary items. Effective January 1, 2001, because of the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, taxable REIT subsidiaries of MeriStar LP were assigned the leases on 106 hotels that had previously been held by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and entered into management contracts with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage these hotels. Accordingly, the related hotel revenues, expenses and management fees are included in MeriStar LP's historical results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2001. Some reclassifications have been made to conform to the presentation of our statement of operations. 45 52 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) (C) On May 10, 2001, FelCor and MeriStar announced that they had signed a merger agreement, under which MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries will merge with and into MeriStar LP, and the limited partners of MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries, will exchange their interests in MeriStar LP for interests in FelCor LP and, where applicable, cash. Under the merger agreement, each holder of MeriStar common stock will receive, for each share of MeriStar common stock, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock. Each holder of common units and profits-only partnership units in MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries, will receive, for each common unit and profits-only unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a common unit of FelCor LP. Each holder of Class C preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a Series C preferred unit in FelCor LP. Each holder of Class D preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, one Series D preferred unit in FelCor LP. Amounts represent adjustments to record the partnership merger and related transactions as if the partnership merger had occurred on January 1 of the fiscal period presented. Shares of FelCor common stock and FelCor LP common units are valued at $22.10, the closing price of FelCor common stock on the date of the announcement.

--------------- (1) Represents effective fixed rate on notes issued in May 2001. (2) Represents estimated variable rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points rate to be committed by lender. Weighted average 30 day LIBOR was 6.44% for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 4.70% for the six months ended June 30, 2001. An increase of 0.125% in interest rates would increase interest 47 54 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) expense and decrease net income by $437,500 and $218,750 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001 respectively. (3) Represents contractual variable rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points. On a proforma basis, FelCor LP will have a balance outstanding on the line of credit of $330,373 for the periods presented. This adjustment represents the incremental interest on this balance in excess of historical amounts. (4) Represents the weighted average historical rates which were approximately 8.44% and 6.70% for the periods ended December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2001, respectively.

(7) See note (F). (F) FelCor has no assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses other than those derived from its ownership of us. MeriStar has miscellaneous assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses other than those derived from its ownership of MeriStar LP. Upon completion of the merger and related transactions, FelCor will contribute to us all assets and liabilities acquired; accordingly these miscellaneous adjustments are made to reflect the contribution of the items historically reported only at the MeriStar level. (G) Represents distributions on the proposed issuance of $100 million of cumulative redeemable preferred units at an assumed distribution rate of 10.5%. An increase of 0.125% in the distribution rate would increase the preferred distributions and decrease net income available to common unitholders by $125,000 and $62,500 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2001 presentation with no effect on previously reported net income. (5) Represents adjustment to eliminate historical amounts related to (i) a hotel leased by Bristol Tenant not owned by FelCor LP and (ii) a hotel owned by FelCor LP but sold in December 2000. (6) Represents the elimination of historical percentage lease revenues and expenses between FelCor LP and the lessees. (7) Represents the adjustment required to record the management fees at their contractual rates. In the negotiation for the acquisition of the 88 leases and the new long-term management contract with Six Continents Hotels, FelCor LP was able to spread the cost of the lease acquisition over the term of the management agreement, by agreeing to pay management fees that are higher than those paid by FelCor to other managers for comparable services. Management fees for the 88 hotels are broken out between a base fee, computed at 2% of total hotel revenue plus 5% of room revenue, and an incentive fee, computed using a formula incorporating hotel net operating income and FelCor LP's return on its investment in these hotels. The new management contracts transfer the operating risk and reward of the hotels to FelCor LP, as compared to percentage leases, under which FelCor LP received percentage lease revenue based solely on hotel revenues. Additionally, under the new management contracts, FelCor LP has the ability to terminate management contracts for hotels by substituting hotels with similar revenue streams. (8) Represents the elimination of historical franchise fees paid to Bristol Tenant. These agreements have been replaced with management contracts. (9) Represents the elimination of $618,000 in interest expense paid by DJONT to FelCor. (10) Represents the elimination of FelCor LP's equity in income of DJONT's consolidated subsidiary.

(12) Represents the elimination of the historical tax provisions of the Bristol Tenant lessees due to the pro forma taxable loss of the TRSs. No benefit has been recorded for deferred taxes related to these losses due to the uncertainty of their recoverability, because based on the weight of available evidence, management has determined it is more likely than not that the entire balance of deferred tax assets will not be realized by the TRSs. 50 57 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) --------------- (J) Represents MeriStar LP's historical results of operations, excluding extraordinary items, plus the pro forma effect of MeriStar LP's acquisition of 106 hotel leases from MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2000.

Under these leases, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assumed all of the operating risks and rewards of these hotels and paid MeriStar LP a percentage of revenue at each hotel under the lease agreements. Therefore, for financial statement purposes through December 31, 2000, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts recorded all of the operating revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statements of operations, and MeriStar LP recorded lease revenue earned under the lease agreements in its statements of operations. Effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assigned the hotel leases to newly created, wholly owned, taxable REIT subsidiaries of MeriStar LP and these taxable REIT subsidiaries in turn, entered into management agreements with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage these hotels. As a result of this change in structure, the wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiaries of MeriStar LP have assumed the operating risks and rewards of the hotels and now pay MeriStar Hotels & Resorts a management fee to manage the hotels for it. For consolidated financial statement purposes, effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar LP now records all of the revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statement of operations, including a management fee paid to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. The terms of the management agreements are designed to substantially mirror the economics of the former leases.

(B) Effective January 1, 2001, with the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, we had completed transactions that resulted in our newly formed taxable REIT subsidiaries acquiring leases for 96 hotels that were previously leased to either DJONT or Six Continents Hotels. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities associated with these hotels are included in our historical consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2001. In March 2001, we entered into an agreement with Six Continents Hotels to acquire the remaining 88 hotel leases effective July 1, 2001. In consideration for the acquisition of these leases, one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries entered into long-term management agreements with Six Continents Hotels with regard to these hotels and issued to Six Continents Hotels 100 shares of FelCor common stock. The pro forma adjustment column represents the historical hotel assets and liabilities associated with the 88 hotels as if the Six Continents Hotels leases were acquired effective June 30, 2001. (C) Represents the historical consolidated balance sheet of MeriStar LP as of June 30, 2001. Some reclassifications have been made to conform to the presentation of our balance sheet.

--------------- (1) Represents the historical results of operations of FelCor for the six months ended June 30, 2001, excluding extraordinary items. Effective January 1, 2001, with the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, FelCor had completed transactions that resulted in its newly formed taxable subsidiaries acquiring leases for 96 hotels that were previously leased to either DJONT or Six Continents Hotels, accordingly, the revenues and expenses associated with these hotels are included in FelCor's historical consolidated statement of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2001. 61 68 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) (2) Represents the historical results of operations of FelCor hotels leased to subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels for the six months ended June 30, 2001, excluding extraordinary items. (3) Represents the elimination of historical percentage lease revenue and expense between FelCor and Six Continents Hotels. The expense elimination also includes a $170,000 adjustment of an estimate of property tax expense. (4) Represents the adjustment required to record the management fees at their contractual rates. In the negotiation for the acquisition of the 88 leases and the new long-term management contracts with Six Continents Hotels, FelCor was able to spread the cost of the lease acquisition cost over the term of the management agreement, by agreeing to pay management fees that are higher than those paid by FelCor to other managers for comparable services. Management fees for the 88 hotels are broken out between a base fee, computed at 2% of total hotel revenue plus 5% of room revenue, and an incentive fee, computed using a formula incorporating hotel net operating income and FelCor's return on its investment in these hotels. The new management contracts transfer the operating risk and reward of the hotels to FelCor, as compared to the percentage leases, under which FelCor received percentage lease revenue based solely on hotel revenues. Additionally, under the new management contracts, FelCor has the ability to terminate management contracts for hotels by substituting hotels with similar revenue streams. (5) Represents the elimination of historical franchise fees. These agreements have been replaced with management contracts. (6) Represents the elimination of lease termination costs associated with the acquisition of DJONT and the Six Continents Hotels leases in January 2001. (7) Represents the adjustment to record FelCor's minority interest holders share of the revenues and expenses of the Bristol Tenant lessee and the proforma adjustments. (B) Represents MeriStar's historical results of operations, excluding extraordinary items. Effective January 1, 2001, because of the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, taxable REIT subsidiaries of MeriStar were assigned the leases on 106 hotels that had previously been held by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. and entered into management contracts with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage these hotels. Accordingly, the related hotel revenues, expenses and management fees are included in MeriStar's historical results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2001. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the presentation of our statements of operations. 62 69 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) (C) On May 10, 2001, FelCor and MeriStar announced that they had signed a merger agreement, under which MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor LP will merge with and into MeriStar LP, and the limited partners of MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries, will exchange their interests in MeriStar LP for interests in FelCor LP and, where applicable, cash. Under the merger agreement, each holder of MeriStar common stock will receive, for each share of MeriStar common stock, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock. Each holder of common units and profits-only partnership units in MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries will receive, for each common unit and profits-only unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a common unit of FelCor LP. Each holder of Class C preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a Series C preferred unit in FelCor LP. Each holder of Class D preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, one Series D preferred unit in FelCor LP.

--------------- (1) Represents effective fixed rate on notes issued in May 2001. (2) Represents estimated variable rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points to be committed by lender. Weighted average 30 day LIBOR was 6.44% for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 4.70% for the six months ended June 30, 2001. An increase of 0.125% in interest rates would increase interest expense by $437,500 and $218,750 and decrease net income available to common shareholders by $391,563 and $191,406 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. (3) Represents contractual variable rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points. On a pro forma basis, FelCor will have a balance outstanding on the line of credit of $330,373 for the periods presented. This adjustment represents the incremental interest on this balance in excess of historical amounts. (4) Represents the weighted average historical rates which were approximately 8.44% and 6.70% for the periods ended December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2001, respectively.

FelCor expects to assume approximately $500 million of MeriStar LP's senior notes and approximately $374 million of mortgage debt of MeriStar's subsidiaries in connection with the merger. --------------- (F) Represents adjustment necessary to record impact of merger related transactions on minority interests. After the partnership merger, MeriStar LP common unit holders will have the option of redeeming each FelCor LP common unit issued to them for an amount of cash equal to the then average market price of a share of FelCor common stock, or, at FelCor's option, one share of FelCor common stock. If holders elect to redeem their units, FelCor intends to redeem them by issuing its common stock. Accordingly, pro forma effect has not been given to the range of possible results. (G) Represents dividends on the proposed issuance of $100 million of cumulative redeemable preferred stock at an assumed dividend rate of 10.5%. An increase of 0.125% in the dividend rate would 65 72 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) increase the preferred dividends by $125,000 and $62,500 and decrease net income available to common shareholders by $111,875 and $54,688 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2001 presentation with no effect on previously reported net income.

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2001 presentation with no effect on previously reported net income. (5) Represents adjustment to eliminate historical amounts related to (i) a hotel leased by Bristol Tenant not owned by FelCor and (ii) a hotel owned by FelCor but sold in December 2000. (6) Represents the elimination of historical percentage lease revenues and expenses between FelCor and the lessees. (7) Represents the adjustment required to record the management fees at their contractual rates. In the negotiation for the acquisition of the 88 leases and the new long-term management contracts with Six Continents Hotels, FelCor was able to spread the cost of the lease acquisition over the term of the management agreement, by agreeing to pay management fees that are higher than those paid by FelCor to other managers for comparable services. Management fees for the 88 hotels are broken out between a base fee, computed at 2% of total hotel revenue plus 5% of room revenue, and an incentive fee, computed using a formula incorporating hotel net operating income and FelCor's return on its investment in these hotels. The new management contracts transfer the operating risk and reward of the hotels to FelCor, as compared to the percentage leases, under which FelCor received percentage lease revenue based solely on hotel revenues. Additionally, under the new management contracts, FelCor has the ability to terminate management contracts for hotels by substituting hotels with similar revenue streams. (8) Represents the elimination of historical franchise fees paid to Six Continents Hotels. These agreements have been replaced with management contracts. (9) Represents the elimination of $618,000 in interest expense paid by DJONT to FelCor. (10) Represents the elimination of FelCor's equity in income of DJONT's consolidated subsidiary.

(12) Represents the elimination of the historical tax provisions of the Six Continents Hotels lessees due to the pro forma taxable loss of the TRSs. No benefit has been recorded for deferred taxes related to these losses due to the uncertainty of their recoverability, because based on the weight of available evidence, management has determined it is more likely than not that the entire balance of deferred tax assets will not be realized by the TRSs. 68 75 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) --------------- (J) Represents MeriStar's historical results of operations, excluding extraordinary items, plus the pro forma effect of MeriStar's acquisition of 106 hotel leases from MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc. as if the acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2000.

Under these leases, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assumed all of the operating risks and rewards of these hotels and paid MeriStar a percentage of revenue at each hotel under the lease agreements. Therefore, for financial statement purposes through December 31, 2000, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts recorded all of the operating revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statements of operations, and MeriStar recorded lease revenue earned under the lease agreements in its statements of operations. Effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assigned the hotel leases to newly created, 69 76 NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS -- (CONTINUED) wholly owned, taxable REIT subsidiaries of MeriStar and MeriStar's taxable REIT subsidiaries in turn, entered into management agreements with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage these hotels. As a result of this change in structure, MeriStar's wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiaries have assumed the operating risks and rewards of the hotels and now pay MeriStar Hotels & Resorts a management fee to manage the hotels for them. For consolidated financial statement purposes, effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar now records all of the revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statement of operations, including a management fee paid to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. The terms of the management agreements are designed to substantially mirror the economics of the former leases.

(B) Effective January 1, 2001, with the enactment of the REIT Modernization Act, we had completed transactions that resulted in its newly formed taxable REIT subsidiaries acquiring leases for 96 hotels that were previously leased to either DJONT or Six Continents Hotels. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities associated with these hotels are included in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2001. In March 2001, we entered into an agreement with Six Continents Hotels to acquire the remaining 88 hotel leases effective July 1, 2001. In consideration for the acquisition of these leases, taxable REIT subsidiaries of FelCor entered into long-term management agreements with Six Continents Hotels with regard to these hotels and issued to Six Continents Hotels 100 shares of FelCor common stock.

(D) On May 10, 2001, FelCor and MeriStar announced that they had signed a merger agreement, under which MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries will merge with and into MeriStar LP, and the limited partners of MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries, will exchange their interests in MeriStar LP for interests in FelCor LP and, where applicable, cash. Under the merger agreement, each holder of MeriStar common stock will receive, for each share of MeriStar common stock, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock. Each holder of common units and profits-only partnership units in MeriStar LP, other than FelCor and its subsidiaries, will receive, for each common unit and profits-only unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a common unit of FelCor LP. Each holder of Class C preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, $4.60 in cash plus 0.784 of a Series C preferred unit in FelCor LP. Each holder of Class D preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each unit, one Series D preferred unit in FelCor LP. Amounts represent adjustments to record the merger and related transactions as if the merger had occurred on June 30, 2001.

------------ (1) On July 28, 1998, FelCor completed the merger of Bristol Hotel Company's real estate holdings with and into FelCor. The merger resulted in the net acquisition of 107 primarily full-service hotels in return for approximately 31 million shares of newly issued common stock. FelCor subsequently contributed all assets and liabilities it acquired in the merger to us in exchange for approximately 31 million of our common units. (2) In the second quarter of 2000, we recorded a $63 million loss related to the decision to sell certain non-strategic hotel assets, which is reflected in the income statements presented for the period. (3) Includes hotel revenues and expenses with respect to 96 hotels that were leased to either DJONT or subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels prior to the effectiveness of the REIT Modernization Act on January 1, 2001. Prior to January 1, 2001, revenues were comprised mainly of percentage lease revenues. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2001, we recorded lease termination costs of $36.2 million with respect to the 96 hotels. (4) In 1998, we declared a special one-time distribution of accumulated but undistributed earnings and profits as a result of Bristol Hotel Company merging with and into FelCor, in addition to the annual dividend of $2.20 per common unit. The amount of the one-time distribution was $0.345 per common unit. (5) We consider Funds From Operations to be a key measure of a REIT's performance, which should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of operating performance and liquidity. The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines Funds From Operations as net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from extraordinary items in accordance with GAAP and sales of depreciable operating properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after comparable adjustments for our portion of these items related to unconsolidated entities and joint ventures. We believe that Funds From Operations 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. We compute Funds From Operations in accordance with standards established by NAREIT, except that we add back rent deferred under SAB 101, the loss on assets held for sale, lease termination costs, and swap termination 77 84 expense to derive Funds From Operations. This may not be comparable to Funds From Operations reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do or that do not adjust Funds From Operations for rent deferred under SAB 101, the loss on assets held for sale, lease termination costs and swap termination expense. Funds From Operations 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 its ability to make cash distributions. Funds From Operations may include funds that may not be available for discretionary use by our management due to requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures and property acquisitions and other commitments and uncertainties. The computation of Funds From Operations for FelCor LP and FelCor yields the same result. The following table details our computation of Funds From Operations for FelCor LP.

------------ (a) Weighted average units outstanding are computed including dilutive options, unvested stock grants and assuming conversion of Series A preferred units to common units. (6) EBITDA is computed by adding Funds From Operations, interest expense, our portion of interest expense from unconsolidated entities, amortization expense and our Series B redeemable preferred distributions. EBITDA is presented because it provides useful information regarding our ability to service debt. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA as presented by us may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The computation of EBITDA for FelCor LP and FelCor yields the same result. A reconciliation of Funds From Operations to EBITDA is as follows:

(7) For the purpose of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of income from continuing operations plus fixed charges and minority interest in FelCor LP, with respect to FelCor, excluding capitalized interest, and fixed charges consist of interest, whether expensed or capitalized, and amortization of loan costs. 78 85 MERISTAR LP AND MERISTAR The following table sets forth selected historical consolidated financial information for MeriStar LP and MeriStar.

80 87 ------------ (A) MeriStar LP and MeriStar were created on August 3, 1998, when American General Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a REIT, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its associated entities. In connection with the merger between CapStar and American General, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, a separate publicly traded company, was created to be the lessee and manager of nearly all of MeriStar's hotels. Prior to August 2, 1998, MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's operating results consisted of the revenues and expenses of the hotels. (B) From August 3, 1998 until January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts leased substantially all of MeriStar's hotels, and MeriStar LP and MeriStar earned lease revenue under the participating lease agreements with its lessees. Upon assigning the 106 leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to MeriStar's taxable REIT subsidiaries on January 1, 2001, in conjunction with the REIT Modernization Act, MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's operating results now include the revenues and expenses of these hotels. (C) During 2000, MeriStar LP and MeriStar sold three limited service hotels that resulted in a gain on sales of assets. During 2001, MeriStar LP and MeriStar sold one hotel that resulted in a loss on the sale of the asset. (D) During 1996, 1997, 1998, and 1999 some loan facilities were refinanced and the write-offs of deferred costs associated with these facilities were recorded as extraordinary losses in accordance with GAAP. During 2000, MeriStar LP repaid some of its notes payable to MeriStar at a discount, and MeriStar repurchased some of its convertible notes at a discount, which resulted in extraordinary gains. During 2001, MeriStar LP and MeriStar paid down a portion of its revolving credit facility resulting in an extraordinary loss. (E) Basic and diluted earnings per unit or share before extraordinary loss for the year ended December 31, 1996 is based on earnings for the period from August 20, 1996, the date of CapStar's initial public offering, through December 31, 1996. (F) No distributions or dividends were declared prior to August 3, 1998, the date of the merger between American General and CapStar. (G) As of the end of the period presented. (H) EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. MeriStar's management believes that EBITDA is a useful measure of operating performance because it is industry practice to evaluate hotel properties based on operating income before interest, depreciation and amortization, which is generally equivalent to EBITDA, and EBITDA is unaffected by the debt and equity structure of the entity. EBITDA does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, and should not be considered as an alternative to net income under GAAP for purposes of evaluating MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's results of operations and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, MeriStar LP's and MeriStar's EBITDA has been presented before the effect of non-recurring items; swap termination costs of $9,297; the write-down of MeriStar LP's investment in STS Hotel Net of $2,112; FelCor merger costs of $3,789; and costs to terminate the leases with Prime Hospitality Corporation of $1,315. (I) For the purpose of computing the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions, earnings consist of income from continuing operations plus fixed charges, excluding capitalized interest, and fixed charges consist of interest, whether expensed or capitalized, and amortization of loan costs. 81 88 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of FelCor, FelCor LP and MeriStar are incorporated in this document by reference to the companies' Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-Q/A for the six months ended June 30, 2001. See "Where You Can Find More Information." The management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of MeriStar LP is attached as Appendix I to this prospectus. 82 89 BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES FELCOR AND FELCOR LP We are one of the nation's largest hotel REITs, with ownership interests in 185 hotels at June 30, 2001, with nearly 50,000 rooms and suites. As of June 30, 2001, we own a 100% interest in 152 hotels with 40,309 rooms and suites, a 90% or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels with 1,745 rooms and suites, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels with 983 rooms and a 50% interest in separate entities that own 24 hotels with 5,459 rooms and suites. Our hotels are located in the United States (35 states) and Canada, with concentrations in Texas (41 hotels), California (19 hotels), Florida (18 hotels) and Georgia (14 hotels). We own the largest number of Embassy Suites, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn and independently owned Doubletree-branded hotels in the world. We seek to increase operating cash flow through both internal growth and selective acquisitions, while maintaining a flexible and conservative capital structure. In addition to renovating, redeveloping and repositioning our acquired hotels, we may seek to acquire new upscale properties that will benefit from affiliation with one of the premium brands available to us through our strategic brand owner and manager relationships with Hilton, Six Continents Hotels and Starwood. In support of this strategy, on July 28, 1998, we merged Bristol Hotel Company into FelCor, acquiring its 107 primarily full-service hotels. These hotels added more than 28,000 rooms and suites to our portfolio, more than doubling our size. The merger also provided diversification, both geographically and by asset class, by adding hotels in many of our key markets and broadening our portfolio in the full-service, upscale and midscale hotel markets. During 1998, we purchased 16 hotels in addition to those acquired in the merger. Since 1998, we have sold nine hotels, contributed eight hotels to a joint venture in which we have a 50% interest, and acquired a 50% joint venture interest in one hotel. MERISTAR MERGER On May 9, 2001, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with MeriStar and MeriStar LP. Pursuant to the merger agreement, as amended, MeriStar will be merged with and into FelCor, with FelCor as the survivor. Under the terms of the merger agreement, which was approved by the boards of both FelCor and MeriStar, holders of shares of MeriStar common stock will receive, for each share of common stock, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 shares of FelCor common stock. We also will either assume or refinance approximately $1.7 billion in MeriStar debt. MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc., an independent public hotel management company, will continue to manage substantially all of the hotels we will acquire from MeriStar in the merger. The MeriStar merger will also involve the merger of MeriStar's subsidiary operating limited partnership, MeriStar LP, with a wholly-owned subsidiary of our operating limited partnership, FelCor LP with MeriStar LP surviving as a subsidiary of FelCor LP. The holders of common partnership units and vested profits-only partnership units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 common partnership units in FelCor LP. Unvested profits-only partnership units will be cancelled. The holders of Class C preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 Series C preferred units in FelCor LP. The holders of Class D preferred units in MeriStar LP will receive, for each such unit, one Series D preferred unit in FelCor LP. The MeriStar merger, which is subject to stockholder approval and other customary conditions, is expected to close near the end of the third quarter of 2001. The equity portion of the transaction is structured to qualify as a tax-free merger with respect to the share consideration. We will continue to operate as a REIT and Thomas J. Corcoran, Jr. will continue as our President and Chief Executive Officer. Paul W. Whetsell and Steven D. Jorns, directors of MeriStar, have agreed to join our board of directors. We will maintain our existing headquarters facilities in Irving, Texas. 83 90 MeriStar is a REIT which owns a portfolio of primarily upscale, full-service hotels, diversified geographically as well as by franchise and brand affiliations, in the United States and Canada. As of June 30, 2001, MeriStar owned 113 hotels with 28,877 rooms. The hotels are located in major metropolitan areas or rapidly growing secondary markets and are well located within these markets. A majority of MeriStar's hotels are operated under nationally recognized brand names such as Hilton, Sheraton, Westin, Marriott, Radisson, Doubletree and Embassy Suites. Upon completion of the MeriStar merger, we will have ownership interests in 298 hotels, and for the year ended December 31, 2000, on a pro forma basis, our revenues were $2.9 billion and our EBITDA was $819.0 million. Assuming the sale of the 15 remaining non-strategic hotels designated by FelCor as held for sale, after the MeriStar merger, we will have ownership interests in 283 hotels with approximately 75,000 rooms and suites. We are the largest independent owner of Embassy Suites and Doubletree-branded hotels, which are licensed by Hilton. As a result of the MeriStar merger, we will acquire three Embassy Suites, six Doubletree Hotels and 23 Hilton hotels. Similarly, we currently own 69 hotels, and following the MeriStar merger, will own 88 hotels, licensed by Six Continents Hotels, primarily under the Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza names. We also currently own 11 and, following the MeriStar merger, will own 26, Starwood-branded hotels, primarily under the Sheraton and Westin names, which are licensed by Starwood. THE INDUSTRY The United States hotel industry profitability has improved each year since 1992 until 2000, its longest sustained growth in history. According to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's 1999 Lodging Industry Briefing and April 10, 2001 U.S. Lodging Industry Update, after a period of extended unprofitability in the late 1980's and early 1990's, during which time the increase in the supply of new hotel rooms significantly outpaced growth in room demand, lodging industry profit increased every year from 1992 through 2000. The percentage growth in room demand exceeded percentage growth in new room supply from 1992 through 1996. While 1997 and 1998 experienced the highest number of new room starts in the prior 10 years, 1999 showed a decline in new room starts of 9.7% from the 1998 level and is expected to decline by 16.2% in 2000, compared to 1999, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's January 2001 Hospitality Directions. In spite of the above-average increases in room supply since 1995, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's September 1997 and January 2001 Hospitality Directions, and April 10, 2001 U.S. Lodging Industry Update, annual revenue per available room has grown each year from 1991 through 2000. Recent economic conditions have produced the hotel industry's first declines in RevPAR, compared to prior year periods, since 1991. A decline in our RevPAR will likely result in a corresponding decrease in revenues and net income. Although we had positive RevPAR growth of 2.0% in the first quarter of 2001, during the second quarter our hotels experienced a RevPAR decline of 7.4%, and MeriStar's hotels had a RevPAR decline of 6.0%, compared to the same period of 2000. According to Smith Travel Research, the U.S. hospitality industry experienced a 3.7% decline in RevPAR for the second quarter. Smith Travel Research, a leading provider of industry data, classifies hotel chains into five distinct categories: Upper Upscale, Upscale, Midscale With Food & Beverage, Midscale Without Food & Beverage, and Economy. We remain focused on properties in the Upper Upscale (including Doubletree Guest Suites, Embassy Suites, Sheraton and Westin hotels), Upscale (including Crowne Plaza, Doubletree Hotels and Homewood Suites), and Midscale With Food & Beverage (including Harvey, Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Select hotels) categories, from which we derived approximately 97% of our room and suite revenues in 2000. Smith Travel Research also categorizes hotels based upon their relative market positions, as measured by ADR, as Luxury, Upscale, Midprice, Economy and Budget. The following table contains information with respect to average occupancy, ADR and RevPAR for our hotels and MeriStar's hotels, as well as all 84 91 Upscale U.S. hotels, Midprice U.S. hotels and U.S. hotels as reported by Smith Travel Research for the periods indicated.

------------ (1) Information is historical, including periods prior to ownership by FelCor. (2) Information is historical, as provided by MeriStar. (3) This category includes hotels in the "upscale price level," defined as hotels with ADRs in the 70th to 85th percentiles in their respective markets. (4) This category includes hotels in the "midprice level," defined as hotels with ADRs in the 40th to 70th percentiles in their respective markets. BUSINESS STRATEGY We seek to increase our operating cash flow through active asset management. In addition to actively overseeing the operation of our hotels by our lessees and their managers, we apply our asset management expertise to the renovation, redevelopment and rebranding of hotels, the maintenance of strong strategic relationships with our brand owners and managers and the maintenance of financial flexibility and a conservative balance sheet. We believe that MeriStar's business strategies have historically been similar to our business strategy. Following the completion of the MeriStar merger, we expect to apply our business strategy to our combined company. Hotel Renovation, Redevelopment and Rebranding We expect to continue to differentiate ourselves from many of our competitors by: - our practice of upgrading, renovating and/or redeveloping most of our recently acquired hotels to enhance their competitive position, and, in certain instances, rebranding them to improve their revenue generating capacity; and - our ongoing program for the maintenance of our upgraded hotel assets, which generally includes: -- contribution of approximately 4.0% of total annual room and suite revenue to a capital reserve for routine capital replacements and improvements; and -- adherence to a rigorous maintenance and repair program, resulting in the expenditure of more than 4.0% of annual hotel revenues on maintenance of the hotels. 85 92 We have demonstrated our ability to successfully execute renovations. Our renovation and rebranding of the 18 Crown Sterling Suites hotels, which were acquired during 1996 and 1997, achieved an overall RevPAR increase of 47.7% between 1996 and 2000. During 1998, 1999 and 2000, an aggregate of approximately $550 million in capital improvements and other capital expenditures were made to our hotels, with approximately 3% of total hotel room nights being lost in 1998, 2% in 1999 and 1% in 2000, due to renovations. During the same period, MeriStar spent approximately $423 million on their renovation and ongoing property capital expenditures. During 2001, we currently expect to spend approximately $20 million on the renovation of eight hotels, approximately $28 million to complete renovations started in 2000 at 46 hotels, and approximately $50 million for other capital expenditures. We expect an insignificant number of room nights to be lost during 2001 as a result of renovations. During 2001, MeriStar expects to spend approximately $65 million to complete renovation programs and for ongoing capital expenditure programs. We believe that both our and MeriStar's historical capital expenditures should limit the need for future major renovation expenditures. The largest single renovation project that we have completed was the Allerton Crowne Plaza in Chicago, which reopened in July 1999, after having been closed for more than a year. This project received numerous awards, including Lodging Hospitality magazine's Year's Best Design competition in two categories, Bass Hotels & Resorts 1999 Newcomer of the Year award, and Chicago's Greater North Michigan Avenue Association 1999 Avenue Enhancement award. Maintenance of Strong Strategic Relationships We benefit from strategic brand owner and manager relationships with Hilton (Embassy Suites, Hilton and Doubletree), Six Continents Hotels (Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn) and Starwood (Sheraton-- and Westin). - Hilton, which acquired Promus Hotel Corporation in 1999, has a hotel system of more than 1,960 hotels with more than 325,000 guest rooms worldwide, and is now the largest operator of full-service, all-suite hotels in the United States. In addition to its Hilton and Conrad International-branded hotels, Hilton owns the Embassy Suites, Doubletree and Doubletree Guest Suites brands and at June 30, 2001, managed 71 of our hotels. As a result of its acquisition of Promus, Hilton acquired an equity interest in FelCor having an aggregate value of approximately $32 million at June 30, 2001, and it became a 50% partner in joint ventures with us in the ownership of 12 hotels and the holder of a 10% equity interest in certain of our subsidiaries owning six hotels. Our relationship with Promus and its Embassy Suites brand provided the foundation for our historical growth, and we expect to expand our relationship with Hilton, as a result of the MeriStar merger. - Six Continents Hotels is one of the largest hotel operating companies in the world. Six Continents Hotels owns, operates or franchises more than 3,200 hotels with more than 500,000 guest rooms in nearly 100 countries around the world. Among the brands owned by Six Continents Hotels are Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Select, Holiday Inn Express and Inter-Continental. Six Continents Hotels, which acquired Bristol Hotels & Resorts in March 2000, managed 90 of our hotels at June 30, 2001. Six Continents Hotels also owns FelCor common stock and FelCor LP units aggregating approximately 16.1% of our outstanding common stock and units. - Starwood is one of the world's largest hotel operating companies. Directly and through subsidiaries, Starwood owns, leases, manages or franchises more than 725 properties with approximately 225,000 rooms in 80 countries. Our strategic alliance with Starwood, coupled with the purchase of seven Sheraton hotels in 1997, provided us with our initial entry into the upscale, full-service, non-suite hotel market. Starwood manages 11 of our hotels and is a 40% joint venture partner with us in the ownership of two hotels and a 50% joint venture partner with us in the ownership of one hotel. 86 93 Maintenance of Financial Flexibility We are committed to maintaining substantial financial flexibility. In funding our growth, we have used a broad selection of financing sources to minimize our cost of capital, including public equity, collateralized mortgage-backed securities, public and private debt, and asset divestitures. We believe that our capital structure will continue to be among the more conservative in the hotel REIT industry. We believe our financial flexibility should enable us to pursue selective hotel acquisition and expansion opportunities and to take advantage of renovation, redevelopment and rebranding opportunities to help us improve our competitive position. HOTELS HELD FOR SALE We identified 25 non-strategic hotels during 2000 which we have announced our intention to sell. These hotels include most of our limited service hotels, a number of our small market Holiday Inn hotels and all of our Marriott-branded hotels. These hotels represent 8.3% of our total rooms, but only 4.2% of total revenues. Management believes the sale of these non-strategic hotels will allow us and our brand managers to focus our efforts on our upscale and full-service hotels in more strategic markets. Our board of directors approved a $63 million loss on assets held for sale, to reflect the difference between our book value and the estimated market value for these hotels. We have completed the sale of two of the hotels held for sale, recognizing a gain of approximately $135,000. In addition, in March 2001, we contributed eight of the hotels held for sale to an entity in which we own a 50% equity interest, and an affiliate of IHC holds the other 50% equity interest. We contributed assets with a book value of approximately $77 million, received net cash proceeds of $48 million and retained a $17 million preferred interest. As a result of these transactions, at June 30, 2001, we had 15 remaining hotels designated as hotels held for sale. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Since January 1, 2001, we: - acquired from subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels the leases covering 12 of the 25 hotels identified in the second quarter of 2000 as held for sale and terminated the related management agreements in exchange for 413,585 shares of FelCor common stock valued at approximately $10 million; 11 of the leases were transferred to our TRSs effective as of January 1, 2001, and one was terminated in connection with the sale of the related hotel; - completed the acquisition of DJONT, effective as of January 1, 2001, for 416,667 units of limited partnership interest in FelCor LP, valued at approximately $10 million; - contributed eight of the hotels held for sale in March 2001 to an entity in which we hold a 50% equity interest and in which an affiliate of IHC holds the other 50% equity interest; another affiliate of IHC manages each of these hotels; - entered into the merger agreement with MeriStar and MeriStar LP; - completed a private placement of $600 million in 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2011. Pending use to finance in part the MeriStar merger, approximately $316 million of the proceeds of this private placement was placed in a restricted proceeds account to fund the special redemption described below. If the MeriStar merger is not closed on or prior to November 30, 2001 or the merger agreement relating to the MeriStar merger is terminated earlier, the funds in the restricted proceeds account will be used to redeem $300 million aggregate principal amount of the senior notes at a redemption price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption. Pursuant to the restricted proceeds agreement, the funds in the restricted proceeds account will be released to FelCor LP to pay a portion of the purchase price for the MeriStar merger and to pay related fees and expenses upon receipt by the escrow agent of an officers' 87 94 certificate that states that all necessary conditions to the closing of the MeriStar merger have been satisfied or waived; - announced Richard J. O'Brien as our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President in June 2001; - acquired the remaining 88 leases held by Six Continents Hotels on July 1, 2001; and - amended and restated our line of credit in July 2001 to increase it, upon completion of the MeriStar merger, from $600 million to $700 million. REIT Modernization Act On January 1, 2001, the provisions of the REIT Modernization Act became effective. These provisions, among other things, reduce the distribution requirement for REITs from 95% of taxable income to 90% of taxable income for taxable years after 2000. These provisions also provide that for purposes of determining whether rents attributable to personal property leased in connection with the lease of real property are greater than 15% of the total rents received under the lease, the rents attributable to the personal property will be determined on the basis of a comparison of the fair market values of the real and personal property rather than a comparison of their adjusted bases. In addition, these provisions allow REITs, subject to certain limitations, to own, directly or indirectly, up to 100% of the stock of a TRS that can engage in businesses previously prohibited to a REIT. In particular, these provisions permit hotel REITs to own a TRS that can lease hotels from the REIT, rather than requiring the lessee to be a separate, unaffiliated party. Hotels leased to a TRS still must be managed, however, by an unaffiliated third party. The TRS provisions are complex and impose several conditions on the use of TRSs, generally to assure that TRSs are subject to an appropriate level of corporate taxation. Further, no more than 20% of a REIT's assets may consist of securities of TRSs, and no more than 25% of a REIT's assets may consist of non-qualifying assets, including securities of TRSs and other taxable subsidiaries. In addition, the TRS legislation provides that a REIT may not own more than 10% of the voting power or value of a taxable subsidiary that is not treated as a TRS. Although the TRS provisions became effective on January 1, 2001, a taxable subsidiary in existence on July 12, 1999 is grandfathered under the new provisions unless and until (1) it engages in a new line of business or acquires a substantial new asset or (2) FelCor acquires additional stock in the taxable subsidiary. Such existing taxable subsidiaries can be converted into TRSs on a tax-free basis at any time before January 1, 2004. As a result of the TRS provisions, we and MeriStar were able to form or acquire one or more TRSs to acquire all or a portion of our and its existing hotel leases and to serve as the lessee for any additional hotels that we or it acquires. Any "profit" from leases held by a TRS, after payment of the applicable corporate tax, will be available for distribution to us or MeriStar in the form of dividends. As a result of the passage of the REIT Modernization Act, we completed the acquisition of 100% of DJONT, effective January 1, 2001, and contributed the same to our TRSs. As consideration, we issued 416,667 FelCor LP units, valued at approximately $10 million, and assumed DJONT's accumulated shareholders' deficit. On January 1, 2001, we acquired from Six Continents Hotels the leases covering 11 of the hotels and terminated the related management agreements in exchange for 413,585 FelCor LP units valued at approximately $10 million including the cost of terminating one additional lease in connection with the sale of the related hotel. We acquired the remaining 88 leases held by Six Continents Hotels on July 1, 2001. As consideration for the acquisition of such leases, we entered into long term management agreements with Six Continents Hotels with regard to these hotels and FelCor issued to Six Continents Hotels 100 shares of its common stock. In 2000, MeriStar established a special committee of independent members of its board of directors to negotiate the transfer of MeriStar's existing leases with subsidiaries of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to MeriStar's TRSs. Accordingly, effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar's TRSs executed agreements with subsidiaries of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, which assigned MeriStar's existing leases to MeriStar's TRSs. In connection with the assignment, the TRSs executed new management agreements with a subsidiary of 88 95 MeriStar Hotels & Resorts for each property that was previously leased by them. The management agreements were structured to substantially mirror the economics of the former lease agreements. However, since this structure is a significant change from the business structure MeriStar has maintained, it is not currently possible to predict the outcome of this restructuring.

------------ (1) Situated on land leased under a long-term ground lease. (2) Encumbered by mortgage debt. MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS FelCor In July 2001, we acquired the leasehold interests in 88 hotels from Six Continents Hotels. In connection with this acquisition, Six Continents Hotels assigned the leases to those hotels to our TRSs, and the TRSs executed new management agreements with Six Continents Hotels for the 88 hotels that were previously leased. Additionally, as a result of our acquisition of DJONT, our TRSs became parties to management agreements with subsidiaries of Hilton, including Promus Hotels, Inc. and its affiliates, DT Management, 97 104 Inc. and its affiliates, and subsidiaries of Starwood, including Sheraton Operating Corporation and its affiliates. Management Fees and Performance Standards. Under the agreements with Six Continents Hotels, the TRS lessees generally pay Six Continents Hotels a basic management fee for each hotel equal to 2% of adjusted gross revenues of the hotel plus 5% of the room revenue of the hotel for each fiscal month during the initial term and any renewal term. The basic management fees owed under the other management agreements are generally as follows: - Doubletree -- between 2% and 3% of the hotel's total sales per month; - Sheraton -- 2% of the hotel's total revenue per accounting period; and - Promus -- 2% of adjusted gross income payable monthly. Under the management agreements with Six Continents Hotels, the TRS lessees are required to pay an incentive management fee based on the performance of all the managed hotels, considered in the aggregate. The incentive management fee is computed as a percentage of hotel profits in excess of specified returns to us based on our investment in the managed hotels. The management agreements with the other managers generally provide for an incentive management fee based on a percentage of the TRS lessee's net income before overhead on a hotel by hotel basis. Term and Termination. The management agreements with Six Continents Hotels generally have initial terms of 12 to 17 years. Six Continents Hotels may renew the management agreements for one additional 5-year term on mutually acceptable terms and conditions, provided the hotel meets certain performance standards. The TRSs may elect not to continue to operate the hotels under the brand beyond the expiration of the initial term, however, such election will give Six Continents Hotels the right to force us to sell such hotel to it at an appraised value. The management agreements with the other managers generally have initial terms of between 10 and 20 years, and the agreements are generally renewable beyond the initial term for a period or periods of between 5 and 10 years only upon the mutual written agreement of the parties. The management agreements are generally terminable upon the occurrence of standard events of default or if the hotel subject to the agreement fails to meet certain financial expectations. Upon termination by either party for any reason, the TRSs generally will pay all amounts due and owing under the management agreement through the effective date of such termination. Under the Six Continents Hotels management agreements, if we sell any individual hotel, we may be required to pay Six Continents Hotels a monthly replacement management fee equal to the existing fee structure for up to one year. In addition, if a TRS breaches the agreement, resulting in a default and termination thereof, or otherwise causes or suffers a termination for any reason other than an event of default by Six Continents Hotels, the TRS may be liable for liquidated damages under the terms of the management agreement. However, if the termination results from the sale of a hotel, no such liquidated damages will be owed if the net proceeds of the sold hotel are reinvested in one or more hotels licensed by Six Continents Hotels within one year from the sale of the hotel. Assignment. Generally, neither party to the management agreements has the right to sell, assign or transfer the agreements to a third party without the prior written consent of the other party to the agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. A change in control of either party will generally require the other's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. MeriStar Effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar's TRSs executed agreements with subsidiaries of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts which assigned MeriStar's existing leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to MeriStar's TRSs. 98 105 In connection with the assignment, the TRSs executed new management agreements with a subsidiary of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts for each property that was previously leased by them. After the completion of the merger, these management agreements will continue to be in effect. Management Fees and Performance Standards. Each of MeriStar's TRSs will pay MeriStar Hotels & Resorts a management fee for each hotel equal to a specified percentage of aggregate hotel operating revenues, increased or reduced, as the case may be, by 20% of the positive or negative difference between: - the actual excess of total operating revenues over total operating expenses; and - the projected excess of total operating revenues over total operating expenses. The total management fee for a hotel in any fiscal year will not be less than 2.5% or greater than 4.0% of aggregate hotel operating revenues. Term and Termination. The management agreements with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts have initial terms of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each. A renewal will not go into effect if a change in the federal tax laws permits MeriStar or one of its subsidiaries to operate the hotel directly without adversely affecting MeriStar's ability to qualify as a REIT or if MeriStar Hotels & Resorts elects not to renew the agreement. MeriStar may elect not to renew the management agreements only as provided below. MeriStar's TRSs have the right to terminate a management agreement for a hotel upon the sale of the hotel to a third party or if the hotel is destroyed and MeriStar elects not to rebuild after a casualty. Upon that termination, MeriStar's TRS will be required to pay MeriStar Hotels & Resorts the fair market value of the management agreement. That fair market value will be equal to the present value, using a discount rate of 10%, of the remaining payments under the agreement, assuming that MeriStar Hotels & Resorts would have been paid management fees under the agreement based on the operating results for the 12 months preceding the termination. MeriStar's TRSs will be able to credit against any termination payments the projected fees, discounted to present value at a discount rate of 10%, under any management agreements or leases entered into between MeriStar's TRSs and subsidiaries of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts following August 3, 1998. If gross operating profit from a hotel is less than 85% of the amount projected in the hotel's budget in any fiscal year and gross operating profit from that hotel is less than 90% of the projected amount in the next fiscal year, MeriStar's TRSs will have the right to terminate the management agreement for the hotel without a termination fee unless: - MeriStar did not materially comply with the capital expenditures contemplated by the budget for either or both of the applicable fiscal years; or - MeriStar Hotels & Resorts cures the shortfall by agreeing to reduce its management fee for the next fiscal year by the amount of the shortfall between the actual operating profit for the second fiscal year and 90% of the projected gross operating profit for that year. MeriStar Hotels & Resorts can only use this cure right once during the term of the management agreement. Assignment. MeriStar Hotels & Resorts does not have the right to assign a management agreement without the prior written consent of the relevant TRS. A change in control of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts will require MeriStar's consent which may be granted or withheld in MeriStar's sole discretion. THE INTERCOMPANY AGREEMENT General MeriStar is party to an intercompany agreement with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. On completion of the merger, we will assume MeriStar's rights and obligations under this agreement. The intercompany 99 106 agreement provides that, for so long as the agreement remains in effect, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts will be prohibited from making real property investments that a REIT could make unless: - we are first given the opportunity, but elect not to pursue the activities or investments; - it is on land already owned or leased by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts or subject to a lease or purchase option in favor of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts; - MeriStar Hotels & Resorts will operate the property under a brand name owned by them; or - it is a minority investment made as part of a lease or management agreement arrangement. We will have a right of first refusal with respect to the sale of any property under a brand name owned by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. The intercompany agreement generally grants MeriStar Hotels & Resorts the right of first refusal to become the manager of any real property acquired by us that we do not elect to have managed by the brand owner. This opportunity will be made available to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts only if we determine that: - consistent with our status as a REIT, we must enter into a management agreement with an unaffiliated third party with respect to the property; - MeriStar Hotels & Resorts is qualified to be the manager of that property; and - the property is not to be operated by the owner of a hospitality brand under that brand. Equity Offerings If either MeriStar or MeriStar Hotels & Resorts desires to engage in a securities issuance, such issuing party will give notice to such other party as promptly as practicable of its desire to engage in a securities issuance. Any such notice will include the proposed material terms of such issuance, to the extent determined by the issuing party, including whether such issuance is proposed to be pursuant to public or private offering, the amount of securities proposed to be issued and the manner of determining the offering price and other terms thereof. The non-issuing party will cooperate with the issuing party in every way to effect any securities issuance of the issuing party by assisting in the preparation of any registration statement or other document required in connection with such issuance and, in connection therewith, providing the issuing party with such information as may be required to be included in such registration statement or other document. Term The intercompany agreement will terminate upon the earlier of August 3, 2008, and the date of a change in ownership or control of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. CREDIT FACILITY MeriStar LP is obligated to lend MeriStar Hotels & Resorts up to $50 million for general corporate purposes pursuant to a revolving credit agreement. Borrowings under the revolving credit agreement bear interest at a rate of 650 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate per year and mature on the 91st day following the maturity of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts' senior credit facility, as amended, restated, refinanced or renewed. The revolving credit agreement is expressly subordinated to MeriStar Hotel & Resorts' $100 million senior credit facility. As of June 30, 2001, there was $36.0 million outstanding under this revolving credit agreement. Upon effectiveness of the MeriStar merger, we will succeed to MeriStar's role as lender under this credit facility. In connection with the MeriStar merger, we expect this revolving credit agreement will be amended to fix the maturity date at February 28, 2004, to set the interest rate at 600 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR, and to set the default interest rate to 800 basis points over the 30-day LIBOR. 100 107 THE LEASES As a result of the acquisition of DJONT and the acquisition of the 88 leases from Six Continents Hotels on July 1, 2001, all of our hotel leases are held by our TRSs. As of June 30, 2001, 109 of MeriStar's hotel leases were held by its TRSs and four of its leases were held by third parties. COMPETITION The hotel industry is highly competitive. Each of our hotels and those of MeriStar is located in a developed area that includes other hotel properties and competes for guests primarily with other full and limited service hotels in its immediate vicinity and secondarily with other hotel properties in its geographic market. We believe that brand recognition, location, the quality of the hotel and services provided, and price are the principal competitive factors affecting our hotels and those of MeriStar. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS We customarily obtain a Phase I environmental audit from independent environmental consultants before acquiring a hotel. The principal purpose of a Phase I audit is to identify indications of potential environmental contamination for which such hotels may have liability and, secondarily, to assess, to a limited extent, the potential for environmental regulatory compliance liabilities. The Phase I audits of the hotels were designed to meet the requirements of the then current industry standards governing Phase I audits, and consistent with those requirements, none of the audits involved testing of groundwater, soil or air. Accordingly, they do not represent evaluations of conditions at the studied sites that would be revealed only through such testing. In addition, their assessment of environmental regulatory compliance issues was general in scope and was not a detailed determination of the hotel's complete environmental compliance status. Similarly, the audits did not involve comprehensive analysis of potential offsite liability. The Phase I audit reports did not reveal any environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations, nor are we aware of any such liability. Nevertheless, it is possible that these reports do not reveal or accurately assess all environmental liabilities and that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are unaware. We believe that the hotels are in compliance, in all material respects, with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations regarding hazardous substances and other environmental matters, the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on us. We have not been notified by any governmental authority or private party of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of our current or former properties. See "Risk Factors -- We will encounter risks that may adversely affect real estate ownership -- Compliance with environmental laws may adversely affect our financial condition." TAX STATUS FelCor elected to be taxed as a REIT under the federal income tax laws, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 1994. MeriStar was created on August 3, 1998 when American Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a REIT, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its related entities. As a REIT, each of FelCor and MeriStar generally is not subject to federal income taxation at the corporate level on its taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. Each of FelCor and MeriStar may, however, be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute annually at least 90% of its taxable income. In connection with FelCor's and MeriStar's elections to be taxed as a REIT, each of FelCor's and MeriStar's charter imposes restrictions on the ownership and transfer of shares of its common stock. Each of FelCor LP and MeriStar LP expects to make distributions on its units sufficient to enable FelCor and MeriStar, respectively, to meet its distribution obligations as a REIT. Each of FelCor and MeriStar has adopted the calendar year as its taxable year. 101 108 EMPLOYEES FelCor LP has no employees. Management functions of FelCor LP are performed by FelCor as the sole general partner. Mr. Corcoran entered into an employment agreement with FelCor in 1994 that continues in effect until December 31, 2001 and automatically renews for successive one-year terms, unless terminated otherwise. None of FelCor's other executive officers has an employment agreement with FelCor. In addition to Mr. Corcoran, FelCor had 50 other full-time employees at June 30, 2001. As of June 30, 2001, MeriStar and MeriStar LP employed 50 persons, all of whom work at MeriStar's existing corporate headquarters. All persons employed in the day-to-day operation of our and MeriStar's hotels are employees of the lessees, or of the management companies engaged by the lessees, to operate such hotels and are not our or MeriStar's employees. PERSONNEL AND OFFICE SHARING ARRANGEMENTS We share executive offices with FelCor, Inc., a private company controlled by Mr. Corcoran and, prior to January 1, 2001, we also shared offices with DJONT. Each entity bears an allocated share of the costs thereof, including, but not limited to, rent, salaries of certain personnel, other than Mr. Corcoran, who is compensated solely by FelCor, office supplies, telephones and depreciation of office furniture, fixtures and equipment. FelCor LP reimburses FelCor for its share of such allocated costs. Such allocations of shared costs are subject to the approval of a majority of the independent directors of FelCor. For the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, we bore $7.5 million, or 89.5%, and $4.6 million, or 99.5%, of all allocable expenses under this arrangement. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There is no litigation pending or known to be threatened against us or MeriStar or affecting any of our or MeriStar's hotels other than claims arising in the ordinary course of business or which are not considered to be material. Furthermore, most of such claims are substantially covered by insurance. We do not believe that any claims known to us, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on us or MeriStar, without regard to any potential recoveries from insurers or other third parties. 102 109 DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS LINE OF CREDIT On July 26, 2001, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, pursuant to which we provided for an increase of our line of credit, upon completion of the MeriStar merger, from $600 million to $700 million. The Chase Manhattan Bank serves as administrative agent, and The Chase Manhattan Bank of Canada serves as an additional administrative agent, under the line of credit. Our line of credit matures on the earlier of the third anniversary of the MeriStar merger or October 31, 2004, provided that the maturity date may be extended two years, subject to certain conditions. The line of credit is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries, which are also guarantors of the 7 3/8%, 7 5/8%, 8 1/2% and 9 1/2% senior notes, and will be guarantors of the New Notes offered by this prospectus. Borrowings by the U.S. borrower under the line of credit bear interest, at our option: - at a base rate equal to the higher of the base rate announced from time to time by The Chase Manhattan Bank and 0.5% plus the Federal funds rate, in either case plus an applicable margin of 0% to 1.000%; or - at a Eurodollar rate based upon the 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 or 12-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.875% to 2.500%. Borrowings by the Canadian borrower under the line of credit, at our option, may be in the form of: - Canadian Prime Rate Loans, which bear interest at a prime rate ("Prime Rate") equal to the greater of the per annum rate of interest quoted, published and commonly known as the "prime rate" of The Chase Manhattan Bank of Canada and the 30-day Canadian Dollar Bankers' Acceptance rate, or CDOR Rate, plus 1.0%, in either case plus an applicable margin of 0% to 1.000%; or - Bankers' Acceptance Loans, which are purchased at a discount to face amount at a discount rate generally equal to the CDOR rate plus an acceptance fee calculated on the face amount at a rate per annum equal to the applicable margin that would be payable with respect to a comparable Eurodollar rate loan. The applicable margin varies depending upon our long-term senior unsecured actual debt rating or leverage ratio. At June 30, 2001, the margin was 0.500% in the case of base rate/prime rate borrowings and 2.000% in the case of Eurodollar rate borrowings. At June 30, 2001, borrowings outstanding under our line of credit aggregated $39.9 million and bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 6.559% per annum. Our line of credit requires us to comply with certain financial tests and to maintain certain financial ratios, including our unsecured interest expense coverage, fixed charge coverage ratio, maintenance of tangible net worth, limitations on total indebtedness, limitations on total secured indebtedness, adjusted net operating income and limitations on recourse second indebtedness. Failure to satisfy any of the financial covenants would constitute an event of default, notwithstanding our ability to meet our debt service obligations. An event of default also includes, without limitation, a cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy and a change of control. In addition to the financial covenants, our line of credit includes certain other affirmative and negative covenants, including: restrictions on our ability to create or acquire wholly-owned subsidiaries, restrictions on the operation/ownership of our hotels, limitations on our ability to lease property or guaranty leases of other persons, limitations on our ability to make restricted payments, limitations on our ability to merge or consolidate with other persons, issue stock of our subsidiaries and sell all or substantially all of our assets, restrictions on our ability to construct new hotels or acquire hotels under construction, limitations on our ability to change the nature of our business, limitations on our ability to modify certain instruments, limitations on our ability to create liens, limitations on our ability to enter into transactions with affiliates and limitations on our ability to enter into joint ventures. 103 110 7 3/8% AND 7 5/8% SENIOR NOTES In October 1997, we issued $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 3/8% senior notes due 2004 and $125,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 5/8% senior notes due 2007. These senior notes were issued under an indenture containing covenants and other terms and conditions substantially similar to those governing the Old Notes; however, the indenture governing the Old Notes contains additional restrictions upon the redemption of the Notes and the repurchase of capital stock. See "Description of the New Notes and Guarantees." 8 1/2% SENIOR NOTES In June 2001, we issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of our 8 1/2% senior notes due 2011. These senior notes were issued under an indenture containing covenants and other terms and conditions substantially similar to those governing the Old Notes; however, the indenture governing the Old Notes contains additional redemption features and the indenture governing the 8 1/2% senior notes due 2011 contains a special redemption provision that required approximately $316 million of net proceeds to be placed in a restricted proceeds account pending completion of the MeriStar merger. MERISTAR 9% AND 9 1/8% SENIOR NOTES In January 2000, MeriStar LP and MeriStar Hospitality Finance Corp. issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of their 9% senior notes due 2008 and $200 million aggregate principal amount of their 9 1/8% senior notes due 2011. The indenture under which MeriStar's 9% and 9 1/8% senior notes were issued contains certain covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, reporting requirements and other customary restrictions. These notes are currently guaranteed by MeriStar and certain subsidiaries of MeriStar LP and MeriStar Hospitality Finance Corp. Upon completion of the MeriStar merger, an offer to purchase these notes at 101% of their aggregate principal amount will be required to be made to all noteholders, unless waived. To the extent noteholders elect to accept the change of control offer, we have obtained a commitment from lenders for up to $500 million in a stock secured term loan facility which will be available for use to fund, if necessary, our obligation to repurchase up to $500 million of outstanding senior notes of MeriStar LP after the merger. The stock secured term loan facility will have a term of between five and one-half years and seven years and bear interest at a fixed market interest rate not to exceed LIBOR plus 5.25%. MORTGAGE DEBT Our and MeriStar's mortgage debt contains affirmative covenants that are generally equal to or less restrictive than our line of credit. Most of our and MeriStar's mortgage debt is non-recourse to us and MeriStar, respectively. 104 111 DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW NOTES AND GUARANTEES The Old Notes were, and the New Notes will be, issued by FelCor LP under the Indenture dated September 15, 2000 among itself, FelCor, the Subsidiary Guarantors and SunTrust Bank, as trustee. The terms of the Old Notes and the New Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. The New Notes are substantially identical to the terms and provisions of the Old Notes, except for certain transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the Old Notes. The term "Notes" refers to both the Old Notes and the New Notes. The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture. It does not restate the Indenture in its entirety. Because this is a summary, we urge you to read the Indenture and the relevant portions of the Trust Indenture Act because they, and not this description, define your rights as holders of the Notes. We have previously filed copies of the Indenture with the SEC. You may request a copy of the Indenture by contacting us at the address set forth under "Where You Can Find More Information." You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under the subheading "Certain Definitions." For purposes of this section only, references to FelCor LP and FelCor do not include their respective subsidiaries. GENERAL The Notes will be in the aggregate principal amount of $100 million and will be unsecured senior obligations of FelCor LP. The Notes will mature on September 15, 2008. The Notes will initially bear yearly interest at 9 1/2% from January 22, 2001 or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or provided for, payable semiannually to holders of record at the close of business on the March 1 or the September 1, immediately preceding the interest payment date on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2001. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the occurrence of, and during the continuance of, a Ratings Downgrade, the Notes will bear yearly interest at the rate set forth in the immediately preceding sentence plus 0.5%. Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable, and the Notes may be exchanged or transferred, at the office or agency of FelCor LP in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which initially will be the corporate trust office of the trustee c/o Computershare, Wall Street Plaza, 88 Pine Street, 19th Floor, New York, New York 10005, as agent for the trustee; provided that, at the option of FelCor LP, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the holders at their addresses as they appear in the security register for the Notes. The Old Notes have been, and the New Notes will be, issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and any integral multiple. See "-- Book-Entry; Delivery and Form." No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but FelCor LP may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection with a registration of transfer. Subject to the covenants described below under "Covenants" and applicable law, FelCor LP may issue additional Notes under the Indenture. The Notes and any additional notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. 105 112 GUARANTEES AND SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS The Old Notes are, and the New Notes will be, guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by FelCor and the Subsidiary Guarantors. At present, the Subsidiary Guarantors consist of FelCor/CSS Hotels, L.L.C., FelCor/LAX Hotels, L.L.C., FelCor Eight Hotels, L.L.C., FelCor/CSS Holdings, L.P., FelCor/St. Paul Holdings, L.P., FelCor/LAX Holdings, L.P., FelCor Hotel Asset Company, L.L.C., FelCor Nevada Holdings L.L.C., FHAC Nevada Holdings, L.L.C., FHAC Texas Holdings, L.P., FelCor Omaha Hotel Company, L.L.C., FelCor Country Villa Hotel, L.L.C., FelCor Moline Hotel, L.L.C., FelCor Canada Co., FelCor TRS Holdings, L.P. and Kingston Plantation Development Corp., each of which is a guarantor with respect to the Line of Credit and the existing 7 3/8%, 7 5/8%, 8 1/2% and 9 1/2% senior notes. The guarantees are unconditional regardless of the enforceability of the Notes and the Indenture. FelCor currently conducts no other business and has no significant assets other than its general partner interest and an indirect limited partner interest in FelCor LP. Four of the Subsidiary Guarantors that are limited partnerships own directly an aggregate of 25 of the hotels and own general partner interests in a partnership that owns directly one additional hotel in which FelCor and FelCor LP have an interest. Four of the Subsidiary Guarantors that are limited liability companies directly own an aggregate of 51 of the hotels and own direct or indirect membership interests in other entities that own an aggregate of 22 of the hotels, including seven hotels that are owned directly by a limited partnership that is a Subsidiary Guarantor and six hotels that are owned directly by FelCor Canada Co., another Subsidiary Guarantor. None of the remaining seven Subsidiary Guarantors directly owns any hotel properties or engages in any business other than the ownership of partnership and membership interests in other entities. FelCor LP and certain of the Subsidiary Guarantors own additional subsidiaries, none of which is material to FelCor LP. Upon completion of the MeriStar merger, MeriStar LP will guarantee the Notes. To the extent that current subsidiaries of MeriStar and MeriStar LP who are guarantors of MeriStar's senior notes continue, after the merger, as guarantors thereof, or are otherwise required under the Indenture to become Subsidiary Guarantors, these subsidiaries will also guarantee the Notes. It is anticipated that FelCor and FelCor LP will become co-obligors under, and that the Guarantors will become guarantors of, MeriStar's senior notes, to the extent that they remain outstanding. Each future Restricted Subsidiary that subsequently guarantees Indebtedness of FelCor LP or FelCor that ranks equally with or subordinate in right of payment to the Notes will be required to execute a Subsidiary Guarantee. See "Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries." OPTIONAL REDEMPTION Optional Redemption. Except as described below, FelCor LP will not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to September 15, 2004. The Notes will be redeemable at the option of FelCor LP, in whole or in part, at any time, and from time to time, on and after September 15, 2004, upon not less than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' notice, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount thereof) if redeemed during the 12-month period commencing September 15 of the years indicated below, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date:
REDEMPTION YEAR PRICE ---- ---------- 2004...................................................... 104.750 2005...................................................... 103.167 2006...................................................... 101.583 2007 and thereafter....................................... 100.000%
Optional Redemption upon Equity Offerings. At any time, or from time to time, on or prior to September 15, 2003, FelCor LP may, at its option, use the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings (as defined below) to redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the Notes issued under the 106 113 Indenture at a redemption price of 109.5% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of redemption; provided that: (1) at least 65% of the principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after such redemption; and (2) FelCor LP makes such redemption not more than 90 days after the consummation of any such Equity Offering. "Equity Offering" means a public or private offering of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of FelCor or FelCor LP; provided that, the proceeds received by FelCor or FelCor LP directly or indirectly from such offering are not less than $50 million. SELECTION AND NOTICE OF REDEMPTION In the event that FelCor LP chooses to redeem less than all of the Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the trustee either: (1) in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed; or, (2) on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. No Notes of a principal amount of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If a partial redemption is made with the proceeds of an Equity Offering, the trustee will select the Notes only on a pro rata basis or on as nearly a pro rata basis as is practicable (subject to DTC procedures) unless such method is otherwise prohibited. Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Unless FelCor LP defaults in the payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. SINKING FUND There will be no sinking fund payments for the Notes. REGISTRATION RIGHTS FelCor LP and FelCor have agreed with the initial purchasers of the Old Notes, for the benefit of the holders, that FelCor LP and FelCor will use their best efforts, at their cost, to file and cause to become effective a registration statement with respect to a registered exchange offer to exchange the Old Notes for an issue of notes that will be senior notes of FelCor LP, the exchange notes, with terms identical to the notes tendered, including the guarantee by FelCor and the Subsidiary Guarantors, except that the exchange notes will not have legends restricting transfer. When the SEC declares the registration statement relating to the exchange offer effective, FelCor LP will offer the exchange notes in return for surrender of the Old Notes. The exchange offer will remain open for at least 20 business days after the date notice of the exchange offer is mailed to the holders. For each Old Note surrendered to FelCor LP under the exchange offer, the holder will receive an exchange note of equal principal amount. Interest on each exchange note accrues from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Old Notes surrendered or, if no interest has been paid on the Old Notes, from the closing date for the private offering. In the event that applicable interpretations of the SEC staff do not permit FelCor LP and FelCor to effect the exchange offer, or under certain other circumstances, FelCor LP and FelCor will, at their cost, use their best efforts to cause a shelf registration statement with respect to resales of the Notes to become effective and to keep such shelf registration statement effective until the expiration of the time period referred to in Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, or until an earlier date when all of the Notes have been sold under the shelf registration statement. FelCor LP and FelCor shall, in the event of a shelf registration, provide each holder copies of the prospectus, notify each holder when the shelf registration 107 114 statement for the Notes has become effective and take other actions that are required to permit resales of the Notes. A holder that sells its Notes pursuant to the shelf registration statement generally will be required to be named as a selling security holder in the related prospectus and to deliver a prospectus to purchasers, will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act in connection with those sales and will be bound by those provisions of the registration rights agreement that are applicable to that holder, including certain indemnification obligations. Based on an interpretation by the Commission's staff set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties unrelated to the Company, the Company believes that, with the exceptions set forth below, New Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer in exchange for Old Notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by Holders thereof, other than any holder which is an "affiliate" of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, or a broker-dealer who purchased Old Notes directly from the Company to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption promulgated under the Securities Act, without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that the New Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of business of the Holder and the Holder does not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of such New Notes. Any holder who tenders in the exchange offer for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the New Notes cannot rely on this interpretation by the Commission's staff and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction. Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes, where such Old Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. See "Plan of Distribution." Broker-dealers who acquired Old Notes directly from us and not as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may not rely on the staff's interpretations discussed above or participate in the exchange offer and must comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in order to sell the Old Notes. Because the exchange offer was not consummated and a shelf registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC by July 21, 2001, the annual interest rate borne by the Notes, since July 21, 2001, has been increased by 0.5% until the exchange offer is consummated or the SEC declares the shelf registration statement effective. If FelCor LP and FelCor effect the exchange offer, FelCor LP and FelCor will be entitled to close the exchange offer 20 business days after its commencement; provided that FelCor LP has accepted all Old Notes validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the exchange offer. Notes not tendered in the exchange offer will bear interest at the rate set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and will be subject to all of the terms and conditions specified in the Indenture and to the transfer restrictions described in "Transfer Restrictions." This description of some of the provisions of the registration rights agreement is a summary only. We urge you to read the registration rights agreement because it defines your rights regarding registration of the Notes. A copy of the registration rights agreement has previously been filed with the SEC. You may request a copy of this agreement by contacting us at the address set forth under "Where You Can Find More Information." RANKING The Notes will be unsecured senior obligations of FelCor LP, and will rank equally in right of payment with other unsecured Senior Indebtedness of FelCor LP and with MeriStar's 9% senior notes due 2008 and 9 1/8% senior notes due 2011, if the MeriStar merger is consummated. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our and our consolidated Subsidiaries' secured Indebtedness and to all other Indebtedness of the non-guarantor Subsidiaries. Our secured Indebtedness includes only mortgage and capitalized lease debt. As of June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, we and our consolidated 108 115 Subsidiaries had approximately $1.4 billion of mortgage and capitalized lease debt, which is effectively senior to the Notes to the extent of the value of the underlying assets. As of June 30, 2001, on a pro forma basis, our non-guarantor Subsidiaries had less than $1 million of other Indebtedness.

Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will, and neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will permit any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: - pay dividends or make any other distributions permitted by applicable law on any Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by FelCor LP or FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, - pay any Indebtedness owed to FelCor LP, FelCor or any other Restricted Subsidiary, - make loans or advances to FelCor LP, FelCor or any other Restricted Subsidiary, or - transfer its property or assets to FelCor LP, FelCor or any other Restricted Subsidiary.

Limitation on the Issuance and Sale of Capital Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will sell, and neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will permit any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to issue or sell, any shares of Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary (including options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of such Capital Stock) except: (1) to FelCor LP, FelCor or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary; (2) issuances of director's qualifying shares or sales to individuals of shares of Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent required by applicable law or to the extent necessary to obtain local liquor licenses; (3) if, immediately after giving effect to such issuance or sale, such Restricted Subsidiary would no longer constitute a Subsidiary and any Investment in such Person remaining after giving effect to such issuance or sale would have been permitted to be made under the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant if made on the date of such issuance or sale, or (4) sales of not greater than 20% of the Capital Stock of a newly-created Restricted Subsidiary made in connection with, or in contemplation of, the acquisition or development by such Restricted Subsidiary of one or more properties to any Person that is, or is an Affiliate of, the entity that provides, franchise management or other services, as the case may be, to one or more properties owned by such Restricted Subsidiary. Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will permit any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee any Indebtedness of FelCor LP or FelCor which ranks equally with or subordinate in right of payment to the Notes ("Guaranteed Indebtedness"), unless: (1) such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to the Indenture providing for a Subsidiary Guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary, and 129 136 (2) such Restricted Subsidiary waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against FelCor LP, FelCor or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Subsidiary Guarantee; provided that this paragraph shall not be applicable to any Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary and was not Incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary. If the Guaranteed Indebtedness: - ranks equally with the Notes, then the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall rank equally with, or subordinate to, the Subsidiary Guarantee, or - is subordinate to the Notes, then the Guarantee of such Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Subsidiary Guarantee at least to the extent that the Guaranteed Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Subsidiary Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary may provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon: (1) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of FelCor LP or FelCor, of all of Capital Stock held by FelCor LP, FelCor and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by the Indenture), or (2) the release or discharge of the Guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Subsidiary Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such Guarantee. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will, and neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will permit any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into, renew or extend any transaction (including, without limitations, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or assets, or the rendering of any service) with any holder (or any Affiliate of such holder) of 5% or more of any class of Capital Stock of FelCor LP or FelCor or with any Affiliate of FelCor LP or FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, except upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to FelCor LP, FelCor or such Restricted Subsidiary than could be obtained, at the time of such transaction or, if such transaction is pursuant to a written agreement, at the time of the execution of the agreement providing therefor, in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person that is not such a holder or an Affiliate. The foregoing limitation does not limit, and shall not apply to: (1) transactions (A) approved by a majority of the independent directors of FelCor or (B) for which FelCor LP, FelCor or any Restricted Subsidiary delivers to the trustee a written opinion of a nationally recognized investment banking firm stating that the transaction is fair to FelCor LP, FelCor or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; (2) any transaction solely between FelCor LP or FelCor and any of their respective Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries or solely between Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries; (3) the payment of reasonable and customary fees and expenses to directors of FelCor who are not employees of FelCor; (4) any payments or other transactions pursuant to any tax-sharing agreement between FelCor LP or FelCor and any other Person with which FelCor LP or FelCor files a consolidated tax return or with which FelCor LP or FelCor is part of a consolidated group for tax purposes; or (5) any Restricted Payments not prohibited by the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant. 130 137 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction or series of related transactions covered by the first paragraph of this "Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates" covenant and not covered by (2) through (5) of the immediately foregoing paragraph, - the aggregate amount of which exceeds $2 million in value or relates to the leasing of one or more hotel properties to DJONT, must be approved or determined to be fair in the manner provided for in clause (1)(A) or (B) above, and - the aggregate amount of which exceeds $5 million in value, must be determined to be fair in the manner provided for in clause (1)(B) above. Limitation on Asset Sales Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will, and neither FelCor LP or FelCor will permit any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate any Asset Sale, unless: (1) the consideration received by FelCor LP, FelCor or such Restricted Subsidiary is at least equal to the fair market value of the assets sold or disposed of, and (2) at least 75% of the consideration received consists of cash or Temporary Cash Investments; provided, with respect to the sale of one or more hotel properties that up to 75% of the consideration may consist of indebtedness of the purchaser of such hotel properties; provided, further, that such indebtedness is secured by a first priority Lien on the hotel property or properties sold. In the event and to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds received by FelCor LP, FelCor or such Restricted Subsidiary from one or more Asset Sales occurring on or after the Closing Date in any period of 12 consecutive months exceed 10% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (determined as of the date closest to the commencement of such 12-month period for which a consolidated balance sheet of FelCor LP, FelCor and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries has been filed with the SEC or provided to the Trustee pursuant to the "SEC Reports and Reports to Holders" covenant), then FelCor LP or FelCor shall or shall cause the relevant Restricted Subsidiary to: (1) within 12 months after the date Net Cash Proceeds so received exceed 10% of Adjusted Consolidated Net Tangible Assets: - apply an amount equal to such excess Net Cash Proceeds to permanently reduce Senior Indebtedness of FelCor LP, FelCor, or any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of any other Restricted Subsidiary, in each case owing to a Person other than FelCor LP, FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries, or - invest an equal amount, or the amount not so applied pursuant to the foregoing bullet (or enter into a definitive agreement committing to so invest within 12 months after the date of such agreement), in property or assets (other than current assets) of a nature or type or that are used in a business (or in a Restricted Subsidiary having property and assets of a nature or type, or engaged in a business) similar or related to the nature or type of the property and assets of, or the business of, FelCor LP or FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries existing on the date of such investment, and (2) apply (no later than the end of the 12-month period referred to in clause (1)) such excess Net Cash Proceeds (to the extent not applied pursuant to clause (1)) as provided in the following paragraph of this "Limitation on Asset Sales" covenant. The amount of such excess Net Cash Proceeds required to be applied (or to be committed to be applied) during such 12-month period as set forth in clause (1) of the preceding sentence and not applied as so required by the end of such period shall constitute "Excess Proceeds." If, as of the first day of any calendar month, the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds not previously subject to an Offer to Purchase pursuant to this "Limitation on Asset Sales" covenant totals at least $10 million, FelCor LP must 131 138 commence, not later than the fifteenth Business Day of such month, and consummate an Offer to Purchase from the holders on a pro rata basis an aggregate principal amount of Notes equal to the Excess Proceeds on such date, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus, in each case, accrued interest (if any) to the Payment Date. REPURCHASE OF NOTES UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL FelCor LP must commence, within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, and consummate an Offer to Purchase for all Notes then outstanding, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest (if any) to the Payment Date. There can be no assurance that FelCor LP will have sufficient funds available at the time of any Change of Control to make any debt payment (including repurchases of Notes) required by the foregoing covenant (as well as any covenant that may be contained in other securities of FelCor LP or FelCor that might be outstanding at the time). The above covenant requiring FelCor LP to repurchase the Notes will, unless consents are obtained, require FelCor LP to repay all indebtedness then outstanding which by its terms would prohibit such Note repurchase, either prior to or concurrently with such Note repurchase. SEC REPORTS AND REPORTS TO HOLDERS Whether or not FelCor LP or FelCor is then required to file reports with the SEC, FelCor LP and FelCor shall file with the SEC all such reports and other information as they would be required to file with the SEC by Sections 13(a) or 15(d) under the Exchange Act if they were subject thereto; provided that, if filing such documents by FelCor LP or FelCor with the SEC is not permitted under the Exchange Act, FelCor LP or FelCor shall provide such documents to the trustee and upon written request supply copies of such documents to any prospective holder; provided, further, that if the rules and regulations of the SEC permit FelCor LP and FelCor to file combined reports or information pursuant to the Exchange Act, FelCor LP and FelCor may file combined reports and information. FelCor LP and FelCor shall supply the trustee and each holder or shall supply to the trustee for forwarding to each such holder, without cost to such holder, copies of such reports and other information.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) above that occurs with respect to FelCor LP or FelCor) occurs and is continuing under the Indenture, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to FelCor LP and FelCor (and to the trustee if such notice is given by the holders), may, and the trustee at the request of the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall, declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to be immediately due 133 140 and payable. Upon a declaration of acceleration, such principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable. In the event of a declaration of acceleration because an Event of Default set forth in clause (5) above has occurred and is continuing, such declaration of acceleration shall be automatically rescinded and annulled if the event of default triggering such Event of Default pursuant to clause (5) shall be remedied or cured by FelCor LP, FelCor or the relevant Significant Subsidiary or waived by the holders of the relevant Indebtedness within 60 days after the declaration of acceleration with respect thereto.

The holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by written notice to FelCor LP, FelCor and to the trustee, may waive all past defaults and rescind and annul a declaration of acceleration and its consequences if: - all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived, and - the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. As to the waiver of defaults, see "-- Modification and Waiver." The holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee. However, the trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture, that may involve the trustee in personal liability, or that the trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of holders of Notes not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from holders of Notes. A holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless: (1) the holder gives the trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; (2) the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes make a written request to the trustee to pursue the remedy; (3) such holder or holders offer the trustee indemnity satisfactory to the trustee against any costs, liability or expense; (4) the trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and (5) during such 60-day period, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes do not give the trustee a direction that is inconsistent with the request. However, such limitations do not apply to the right of any holder of a Note to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, such Note or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the due date expressed in the Notes, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the holder. The Indenture requires certain officers of FelCor LP and FelCor to certify, on or before a date not more than 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, that a review has been conducted of the activities of FelCor LP and FelCor and their respective Restricted Subsidiaries and of their performance under the Indenture and that FelCor LP and FelCor have fulfilled all obligations thereunder, or, if there has been a default in fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default and the nature and status thereof. FelCor LP and FelCor will also be obligated to notify the trustee of any default or defaults in the performance of any covenants or agreements under the Indenture. 134 141 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS Neither FelCor LP nor FelCor will merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property and assets (as an entirety or substantially an entirety in one transaction or a series of related transactions) to, any Person or permit any Person to merge with or into FelCor LP or FelCor unless: (1) FelCor LP or FelCor shall be the continuing Person, or the Person (if other than FelCor LP or FelCor) formed by such consolidation or into which FelCor LP or FelCor is merged or that acquired or leased such property and assets of FelCor LP or FelCor shall be an entity organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state or jurisdiction thereof and shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the trustee, all of the obligations of FelCor LP or FelCor on the Notes and under the Indenture; (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (3) immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis FelCor LP or FelCor, or any Person becoming the successor obligor of the Notes, as the case may be, could Incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) of the "Limitation on Indebtedness" covenant; provided that this clause (3) shall not apply to a consolidation or merger with or into a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary with a positive net worth; provided that, in connection with any such merger or consolidation, no consideration (other than Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) in the surviving Person or FelCor LP or FelCor) shall be issued or distributed to the holders of Capital Stock of FelCor LP or FelCor; and (4) FelCor LP or FelCor delivers to the trustee an Officers' Certificate (attaching the arithmetic computations to demonstrate compliance with clause (3)) and an Opinion of Counsel, in each case stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture complies with this provision and that all conditions precedent provided for herein relating to such transaction have been complied with; provided that clause (3) above does not apply if, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of FelCor LP or FelCor, whose determination shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution, the principal purpose of such transaction is to change the state of domicile of FelCor LP or FelCor; and provided, further, that any such transaction shall not have as one of its purposes the evasion of the foregoing limitations. DEFEASANCE Defeasance and Discharge. The Indenture provides that FelCor LP, FelCor and the Subsidiary Guarantors will be deemed to have paid and will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee on the 123rd day after the deposit referred to below, and the provisions of the Indenture will no longer be in effect with respect to the Notes (except for, among other things: certain obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the Notes; to replace stolen, lost or mutilated Notes; to maintain paying agencies and to hold monies for payment in trust) if, among other things, (1) FelCor LP has deposited with the trustee, in trust, money and/or U.S. Government Obligations that through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes on the Stated Maturity of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Notes, (2) FelCor LP has delivered to the trustee: (A) either - an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of FelCor LP's exercise of its option under this 135 142 "Defeasance" provision and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred, which Opinion of Counsel must be based upon (and accompanied by a copy of) a ruling of the Internal Revenue Service to the same effect unless there has been a change in applicable federal income tax law after the Closing Date such that a ruling is no longer required, or - a ruling directed to the trustee received from the Internal Revenue Service to the same effect as the aforementioned Opinion of Counsel, and (B) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the creation of the defeasance trust does not violate the Investment Company Act of 1940 and after the passage of 123 days following the deposit, the trust fund will not be subject to the effect of Section 547 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or Section 15 of the New York Debtor and Creditor Law, (3) immediately after giving effect to such deposit on a pro forma basis, no Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or during the period ending on the 123rd day after the date of such deposit, and such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which FelCor LP, FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which FelCor LP, FelCor or any of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries are bound, and (4) if at such time the Notes are listed on a national securities exchange, FelCor LP has delivered to the trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Notes will not be delisted as a result of such deposit, defeasance and discharge. Defeasance of Certain Covenants and Certain Events of Default. The Indenture further provides that the provisions of the Indenture will no longer be in effect with respect to clause (3) under "Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets" and all the covenants described herein under "Covenants," clause (3) under "Events of Default" with respect to such clause (3) under "Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets," clause (4) under "Events of Default" with respect to such other covenants and clauses (5) and (6) under "Events of Default" shall be deemed not to be Events of Default upon, among other things: (1) the deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. Government Obligations that through the payment of interest and principal in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes on the Stated Maturity of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Notes, (2) the satisfaction of the provisions described in clauses (2)(B), (3) and (4) of the preceding paragraph titled "Defeasance and Discharge," and (3) the delivery by FelCor LP to the trustee of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that, among other things, the holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance of certain covenants and Events of Default and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred. Defeasance and Certain Other Events of Default. In the event FelCor LP exercises its option to omit compliance with certain covenants and provisions of the Indenture with respect to the Notes as described in the immediately preceding paragraph and the Notes are declared due and payable because of the occurrence of an Event of Default that remains applicable, the amount of money and/or U.S. Government Obligations on deposit with the trustee will be sufficient to pay amounts due on the Notes at the time of their Stated Maturity but may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on the Notes at the time of the acceleration resulting from such Event of Default. However, FelCor LP, FelCor and the Subsidiary Guarantors will remain liable for such payments. 136 143 MODIFICATION AND WAIVER Subject to certain limited exceptions, modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by FelCor LP, FelCor and the trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes; provided that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of each holder affected thereby: (1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note, (2) reduce the principal amount of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, (3) change the place of payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, (4) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity (or, in the case of a redemption, on or after the Redemption Date) of any Note, (5) reduce the above-stated percentages of outstanding Notes the consent of whose holders is necessary to modify or amend the Indenture, (6) waive a default in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, (7) voluntarily release a Guarantor of the Notes, or (8) reduce the percentage or aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes the consent of whose holders is necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or for waiver of certain defaults. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF INCORPORATORS, PARTNERS, STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OR EMPLOYEES The Indenture provides that no recourse for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of FelCor LP or FelCor in the Indenture, or in any of the Notes or because of the creation of any Indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, partner, stockholder, officer, director, employee or controlling person of FelCor LP, FelCor or the Subsidiary Guarantors or of any successor Person thereof. Each holder, by accepting the Notes, waives and releases all such liability. CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE The Indenture provides that, except during the continuance of a Default, the trustee will not be liable, except for the performance of such duties as are specifically set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the trustee will use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise of the rights and powers vested in it under the Indenture as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs. The Indenture and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 incorporated by reference into the Indenture contain limitations on the rights of the trustee, should it become a creditor of FelCor LP or FelCor, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of any such claims, as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; provided that if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict or resign. BOOK ENTRY; DELIVERY AND FORM The certificates representing the New Notes will be issued in fully registered form without interest coupons. Old Notes sold in reliance on Rule 144A are represented by the Global Old Notes. New Notes issued in exchange for the Global Old Notes will be issued in the form of one or more Global New Notes and will be deposited with the trustee as custodian for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, DTC. Old Notes originally purchased by or transferred to Institutional Accredited Investors who are not qualified institutional buyers ("Non-Global Purchasers") were in registered form without interest coupons 137 144 and represented by the Certificated Old Notes. New Notes issued in exchange for the Certificated Old Notes will be issued in the form of one or more Certificated New Notes. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Note will be limited to persons who have accounts with DTC ("participants") or persons who hold interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in a Global Note will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee (with respect to interests of participants) and the records of participants (with respect to interests of persons other than participants). Qualified institutional buyers may hold their interests in a Global Note directly through DTC if they are participants in such system, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such system. So long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered owner or holder of a Global Note, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Notes represented by such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture and the Notes. No beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note will be able to transfer that interest except in accordance with DTC's applicable procedures, in addition to those provided for under the Indenture. Payments of the principal of, and interest on, a Global Note will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner thereof. Neither FelCor LP, FelCor, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the trustee nor any Paying Agent will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Global Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. FelCor LP expects that DTC or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of a Global Note, will credit participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such Global Note as shown on the records of DTC or its nominee. FelCor LP also expects that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in such Global Note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. Such payments will be the responsibility of such participants. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with DTC rules and will be settled in same-day funds. FelCor LP expects that DTC will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of Notes (including the presentation of Notes for exchange as described below) only at the direction of one or more participants to whose account the DTC interests in a Global Note is credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of Notes as to which such participant or participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an Event of Default under the Notes, DTC will exchange the applicable Global Note for Certificated Notes, which it will distribute to its participants and which, in the case of a Global Old Note, may be legended with respect to the restrictions on transfer thereof. FelCor LP understands that: DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a "banking organization" within the meaning of New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code and a "Clearing Agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates and certain other organizations. Indirect access to the DTC system is available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly ("indirect participants"). Although DTC is expected to follow the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfers of interests in a Global Note among its participants, it is under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither FelCor LP, FelCor, any Subsidiary Guarantor, nor the trustee will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC 138 145 or its participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing its operations. If DTC is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed by FelCor LP within 90 days, FelCor LP will issue Certificated Notes, which, in the case of a Global Old Note, may bear a legend with respect to the restrictions on transfer thereof, in exchange for the Global Notes. Holders of an interest in a Global Note may receive Certificated Notes, which, in the case of a Global Old Note, may bear a legend with respect to the restrictions on transfer thereof, in accordance with the DTC's rules and procedures in addition to those provided for under the Indenture. 139 146 UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS The following general discussion summarizes the material U. S. federal income tax aspects of the exchange offer to holders of the Old Notes. This discussion is for general information only and does not consider all aspects of exchange offer that might impact owners of the Old Notes in light of such holder's personal circumstances. This discussion deals only with Old Notes held as "capital assets" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (generally property held for investment and not for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business). This discussion also does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as dealers in securities, or foreign currency, tax-exempt entities, banks, thrifts, insurance companies, persons that hold the Old Notes as part of a "straddle", a "hedge" against currency risk or a "conversion transaction"; persons that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar, and investors in pass-through entities. In addition, this discussion does not address any of the United States federal income tax consequences of owning or disposing of New Notes, nor does it address any tax consequences arising out of the tax laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, existing and proposed regulations thereunder, Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, rulings and pronouncements, reports of congressional committees, judicial decisions and current administrative rulings and practice, all as in effect on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change at any time, and any such change may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect the tax consequences described below. We have not and will not seek any rulings or opinions from the IRS or counsel with respect to the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions concerning the tax consequences of the exchange offer which are different from those discussed herein. The exchange of Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the exchange offer should not constitute a taxable exchange. As a result, a holder (1) should not recognize taxable gain or loss as a result of exchanging Old Notes for New Notes pursuant to the exchange offer, (2) the holding period of the New Notes should include the holding period of the Old Notes exchanged therefor and (3) the adjusted tax basis of the New Notes should be the same as the adjusted tax basis of the Old Notes exchanged therefore immediately before the exchange. THE FEDERAL TAX DISCUSSION SET FORTH ABOVE IS INCLUDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE DEPENDING UPON A HOLDER'S PARTICULAR SITUATION. HOLDERS OF OLD NOTES ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE TAX CONSIDERATIONS DISCUSSED ABOVE IN LIGHT OF THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS THE APPLICATION OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX LAWS, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN SUCH LAWS. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION Each broker-dealer that receives New Notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such New Notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of New Notes received in exchange for Old Notes where such Old Notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, starting on the expiration date and ending 180 days after the expiration date, we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. We will not receive any proceeds from any sales of New Notes by broker-dealers. New Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the New Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices 140 147 prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such New Notes. Any broker-dealer that resells New Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such New Notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit of any such resale of New Notes and any commissions or concessions received by such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver, and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to our performance of, or compliance with, the registration rights agreement and will indemnify the holders of Old Notes (including any broker-dealers), and certain parties related to such holders, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

ORGANIZATION FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries (the "Company") at June 30, 2001, owned interests in 185 hotels in the United States and Canada with nearly 50,000 rooms and suites (collectively, the "Hotels"). The sole general partner of the Company is FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated ("FelCor") the nation's second largest hotel real estate investment trust ("REIT"). At June 30, 2001, FelCor owned a greater than 85 percent equity interest in the Company. At June 30, 2001, the Company owned a 100 percent interest in 152 of the Hotels, a 90 percent or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels, a 60 percent interest in an entity owning two hotels and 50 percent interests in entities that own 24 hotels. Fifteen of the Company's hotels have been designated as held for sale. On May 9, 2001, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with MeriStar Hospitality Corporation ("MeriStar"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, MeriStar will be merged with and into FelCor subject to the approval of the shareholders of both companies. Under the terms of the merger plan holders of MeriStar common shares will receive, for each common share, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 shares of common stock of FelCor. The Company also will either assume or refinance $1.6 billion in MeriStar debt. A separate publicly traded company, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, will continue to manage the hotels acquired from MeriStar in the merger. The merger is expected to close in September of 2001. The transaction will also involve the merger of the Company's subsidiary with and into MeriStar's subsidiary operating limited partnership. The holders of common partnership units in MeriStar's partnership will receive, for each common unit, $4.60 in cash and 0.784 common partnership units in the Company. Preferred units in MeriStar's partnership will receive similar preferred units in the Company or a combination of cash and units. The proposed mergers are subject to shareholder approval and other customary conditions. The equity portion of the transaction is structured to qualify as a tax free merger with respect to the share consideration. On January 1, 2001, the REIT Modernization Act ("RMA") went into effect. Among other things, the RMA permits a REIT to form taxable subsidiaries that lease hotels from the REIT, provided that the hotels continue to be managed by unrelated third parties. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company completed transactions that resulted in its newly formed taxable subsidiaries acquiring leases for 96 hotels that were leased to either DJONT Operations, L.L.C. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively "DJONT") or subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels, formerly Bass Hotels and Resorts, ("Six Continents Hotels"). By acquiring these leases through its taxable subsidiaries, the Company acquired the economic benefits and risks of these hotel operations and reports hotel revenues and expenses rather than percentage lease revenues. Additionally, in 2001, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire its remaining 88 hotel leases held by Six Continents Hotels. This transaction was effective July 1, 2001.

The Hotels are located in the United States (35 states) and Canada, with a concentration in Texas (41 hotels), California (19 hotels), Florida (16 hotels) and Georgia (14 hotels). At June 30, 2001, (i) subsidiaries of Six Continents Hotels managed 90 of the Hotels, (ii) subsidiaries of Hilton managed 72 of the Hotels, (iii) subsidiaries of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. ("Starwood") managed 11 of the Hotels, (iv) subsidiaries of Interstate Hotels Corporation ("IHC") managed eight of the Hotels and (v) three independent management companies managed the four remaining Hotels. Effective January 1, 2001, with the enactment of the RMA, the Company acquired and contributed to a newly formed taxable REIT subsidiary, all the equity interests in DJONT. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company issued an aggregate of 416,667 units of limited partnership interest valued at approximately $10 million, which, together with DJONT's accumulated shareholders' deficit of $24.5 million, was expensed as a lease termination cost in the first quarter of 2001. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of 12 of the leases, which were held by Six Continents Hotels. In consideration for the acquisition and termination of these leases and the related management agreements of such leases, FelCor issued to Six Continents Hotels 413,585 shares of FelCor common stock valued at approximately $10 million and the Company issued the corresponding number of units. Of this $10 million in consideration for acquisition of these leases, approximately $8.3 million associated with 11 of the hotels had been previously accrued in connection with the hotels designated as held for sale and $1.7 million was expensed as lease termination costs in the first quarter of 2001. Of the 12 hotels, two have been sold, eight have been contributed to a joint venture with IHC, one remains to be sold and one will be retained. In March 2001, the Company contributed the eight hotels managed by IHC to a joint venture with IHC. The Company also entered into an agreement with Six F-6 154 FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 1. ORGANIZATION -- (CONTINUED) Continents Hotels to acquire the remaining 88 leases, which became effective July 1, 2001. In consideration for the acquisition of such leases the Company entered into long-term management agreements with Six Continents Hotels with regard to these hotels and, on July 1, 2001, FelCor issued to Six Continents Hotels 100 shares of FelCor common stock. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial information to conform to the current period's presentation with no effect to previously reported net income or partners' capital. The financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Form 10-K"). Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 2001. 2. DEFERRED RENT The Company recognized deferred lease income under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101") of $18.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively. In accordance with SAB 101, rent deferred in the first quarter of 2001 was fully earned and recognized as percentage lease revenue in the second quarter of 2001, because all contingencies related to such revenue were resolved with regard to the leases acquired July 1, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, SAB 101 had no financial impact to the Company. 3. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE In the second quarter of 2000, the Company identified 25 hotels that it considered non-strategic and announced its intention to sell such hotels. In connection with the decision to sell these hotels, the Company recorded, at June 30, 2000, an expense of $63 million representing the difference between the net book value of these hotels and the estimated net proceeds. No depreciation expense has been recorded on these hotels since June 30, 2000. Revenues related to the assets held for sale, less costs associated with those assets, were included in the Company's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, and represented income of $7.1 million and $6.1 million (net of depreciation expense in 2000), respectively. In March 2001, the Company contributed eight of the hotels held for sale to an entity in which the Company owns a 50 percent equity interest and a subsidiary of IHC holds the other 50 percent equity interest. The Company contributed assets with a book value of approximately $77 million, received net cash proceeds of $48 million and retained a $17 million preferred interest. In June 2001, the Company sold the 140-room Hampton Inn located in Marietta, Georgia, for a net sales price of $7.1 million. The Company is actively marketing the remaining 15 hotels held for sale. 4. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES The Company owned 50 percent interests in joint venture partnerships that owned and operated 24 hotels at June 30, 2001, and 16 hotels at June 30, 2000. The Company also owned a 50% interest in partnerships that owned an undeveloped parcel of land, a condominium management company and developed and sold condominiums in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The Company accounts for its investments in these unconsolidated entities under the equity method.

One month LIBOR at June 30, 2001, was 3.835%. F-8 156 FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 5. DEBT -- (CONTINUED) At June 30, 2001, the Company's line of credit was matched with an interest rate swap agreement, which effectively converted the floating rate on the line of credit to a fixed rate. The line of credit contains various affirmative and negative covenants including limitations on total indebtedness, total secured indebtedness, and cash distributions, as well as the obligation to maintain certain minimum tangible net worth and certain minimum interest and debt service coverage ratios. At June 30, 2001, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants. The Company's other borrowings contain affirmative and negative covenants that are generally equal to or less restrictive than the line of credit. Most of the mortgage debt is non-recourse to the Company and contains provisions allowing for the substitution of collateral upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Most of the mortgage debt is prepayable; subject to various prepayment penalties, yield maintenance, or defeasance obligations. Interest expense is reported net of interest income of $2.2 million and $863,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and capitalized interest of $229,000 and $497,000, respectively. On June 4, 2001, the Company completed the private placement of $600 million in 8 1/2 percent senior unsecured notes that mature in June 2001. Approximately $315 million of the proceeds were placed in escrow pending completion of the merger with MeriStar. The remaining proceeds were used to pay down the Line of Credit and other floating rate debt. Associated with the pay down of the Line of Credit, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with a notional value of $200 million, resulting in a one-time $4.8 million swap termination cost, which was expensed in the second quarter. An extraordinary charge of $225,000 was recorded to write-off unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the prepayment of the floating rate debt. On January 11, 2001, the Company completed the private placement of $100 million in 9 1/2 percent senior unsecured notes that mature in September 2008. These notes were issued at a premium to yield an effective rate of 9 1/8 percent. The proceeds were used initially to pay down the company's line of credit. 6. ADOPTION OF SFAS 133 On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133, as amended, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments. Specifically, SFAS No. 133 requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value. Additionally, the fair value adjustments will affect either partners' capital or net income depending on whether the derivative instrument qualifies as a hedge for accounting purposes and the nature of the hedging activity. Upon adoption of SFAS 133, on January 1, 2001, the Company recorded the fair value of its interest swap rate agreements with a notional value of $250 million as an asset of $248,000 with a corresponding credit to accumulated other comprehensive income reported in partners' capital. As of June 30, 2001, the Company held an interest rate swap agreement with a notional value of $50 million. The fixed interest rate paid on this swap was 5.6 percent and the floating swap rate received was 4.06 percent with a maturity of July 2003. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swap agreement at June 30, 2001 was a liability of $899,000 which was recorded in accrued expenses and accumulated other comprehensive income reported in partners' capital. Assuming no changes in the index rates over the next twelve months, the swap currently held by the Company would result in additional F-9 157 FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 6. ADOPTION OF SFAS 133 -- (CONTINUED) interest expense of $561,000. In June 2001, interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $200 million were terminated at a cost of $4.8 million when the corresponding floating rate debt was prepaid. In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. The Company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. Derivatives are used primarily to fix the rate on floating rate debt and manage the cost of borrowing obligations. The Company requires that hedging derivative instruments are effective in reducing the interest rate risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes, and the Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions. To determine the fair values of its derivative instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions that are based on market conditions and risks existing at each balance sheet date. All methods of assessing fair value result in a general approximation of value, and such value may never actually be realized. At June 30, 2001, the Company's financing facilities consist of a $600 million floating rate line of credit. To reduce the risk of variable interest rates, the Company currently uses an interest rate swap agreement, to effectively convert a portion of its floating rate debt to fixed-rate debt. The differences to be paid or received by the Company under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements are accrued as interest rates change and recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. 7. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components. Total comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 is calculated as follows (in thousands): Net income.................................................. $16,341 Realized loss on terminated interest rate swap agreements... 4,824 Unrealized loss on interest rate swap agreements............ (5,723) ------- Total comprehensive income........................ $15,442 =======
Although the Company conducts business in Canada, the Canadian operations were not material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. Additionally, foreign currency transaction gains and losses were not material to the Company's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. 8. RECENTLY ISSUED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") approved SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and will require (1) intangible assets (as defined in SFAS No. 141) to be reclassified into goodwill, (2) goodwill amortization to cease, and (3) the testing of goodwill for impairment at transition and at interim periods (if an event or circumstance would result in an impairment). The Company will adopt SFAS No. 142 on June 30, 2001, with the purchase of any goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. The F-10 158 FELCOR LODGING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 8. RECENTLY ISSUED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS -- (CONTINUED) Company has not yet determined the impact of SFAS No. 142 on the Company's results of operations and financial position. 9. INCOME TAXES Under the RMA that became effective January 1, 2001, the Company leases certain of its hotels to wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries that are subject to federal and state income taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS 109, the Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. The Company has a deferred tax asset of approximately $100,000, prior to any valuation allowance, relating to losses of the taxable REIT subsidiaries during the six months ended June 30, 2001. Management has provided a 100 percent valuation allowance against this asset due to uncertainty of realization and accordingly, no provision or benefit from income taxes is reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. 10. GAIN ON SALE OF ASSETS During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company received $3.9 million for the condemnation of three parcels of land and recorded a gain of $3.0 million. 11. PURCHASE OF DJONT Effective January 1, 2001, the Company acquired all the equity interests in DJONT. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company issued 416,667 units of limited partnership interest valued at approximately $10 million which, together with DJONT's accumulated shareholders' deficit of $24.5 million, was expensed as lease termination cost in the first quarter of 2001. The Company purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities with this acquisition. The fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities at January 1, 2001, are as follows (in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents................................... $25,583 Accounts receivable......................................... 30,689 Investment in real estate................................... 10,954 Other assets................................................ 10,358 ------- Total assets acquired............................. 77,584 ------- Accounts payable............................................ 18,656 Due to FelCor Lodging Trust................................. 39,466 Accrued expenses and other liabilities...................... 43,999 ------- Total liabilities assumed......................... 102,121 ------- Liabilities assumed in excess of assets acquired............ 24,537 Value of units issued....................................... 9,896 ------- Lease termination costs..................................... $34,433 =======

MeriStar LP, Inc. held 43,996,697 and 43,918,443 common OP units as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 respectively. 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 recorded at redemption value. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 there were 4,232,497 and 4,448,268 redeemable units outstanding. On January 1, 2001, changes to the federal tax laws governing real estate investment trusts, commonly know as the REIT Modernization Act, or RMA, became effective. The REIT Modernization Act permits the Partnership to create taxable REIT subsidiaries on or after January 1, 2001, which are subject to taxation similar to subchapter C corporations. Because of the RMA, the Partnership has created a number of these taxable REIT subsidiaries that are the lessees of its real property. The REIT Modernization Act prohibits the taxable REIT subsidiaries from engaging in the following activities: - they may not manage the properties themselves; they need to enter into "arms length" management agreements 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, - they may not lease a property that contains gambling operations, and - they may not own a brand or franchise under which hotels are operated. The Partnership believes that establishing taxable REIT subsidiaries to lease the properties provides a more efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interest of property ownership. Under the prior lease structure with MeriStar Hotels, we received lease payments based on the revenues generated by the properties, but MeriStar Hotels operated the properties in order to maximize net operating income from the properties. This inconsistency could potentially result in the properties being operated in a way that did not maximize revenues. With the assignment of the leases for each of the 106 properties managed by MeriStar Hotels to the taxable REIT subsidiaries and the execution of the new management agreements, we gained the economic risks and rewards related to the properties that are usually associated with ownership of real estate, and property revenues become the basis for MeriStar Hotels' management fees. F-24 172 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Subsidiaries of OpCo assigned their participating leases to the wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries as of January 1, 2001. In connection with the assignment, the taxable subsidiaries executed new management agreements with a subsidiary of OpCo to manage the hotels. Under these management agreements, the taxable subsidiaries pay a management fee to OpCo for each property. The taxable subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to the Partnership under the participating leases. The management agreements have been structured to substantially mirror the economics of the former leases. The transactions did not result in any cash consideration exchanged among the parties except in regard to the transfer of hotel operating assets and liabilities to the taxable subsidiaries. Under the new management agreements, the base management fee is 2.5% of total hotel revenue plus incentive payments, based on meeting performance thresholds, that could total up to 1.5% of total hotel revenue. The agreements have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at the option of OpCo, subject to some exceptions. Because these leases have been assigned to the taxable subsidiaries, the Partnership now bears the operating risk associated with the hotels. On May 9, 2001, the Partnership and MeriStar entered into an agreement and Plan of Merger with FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated ("FelCor") and its operating partnership. Under the merger agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor's operating partnership will merge with and into the Partnership, and MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor. Holders of MeriStar common stock will receive 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock and $4.60 in cash for each share of MeriStar's common stock. Holders of OP Units will receive $4.60 in cash and 0.784 FelCor operating partnership units. Class D Preferred OP Units will get Series D preferred units in FelCor operating partnership on a one for one basis. The merger agreement requires the approval of holders of a majority of MeriStar's outstanding shares of common stock and holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of FelCor. MeriStar currently expects the merger to close during the third quarter of 2001. The Partnership has incurred $3,789 of costs related to this merger through June 30, 2001. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures that are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accompanying notes and other information for the year ended December 31, 2000. Certain 2000 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation. In management's 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 generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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. The 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, the Partnership has determined that its business is conducted in one reportable segment. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Revenues for Canadian operations totaled $11,583 and $3,178 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. F-25 173 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin or SAB No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB No. 101 addresses lessor revenue recognition in interim periods related to rental agreements which provide for minimum rental payments, plus contingent rents based on the lessee's operations, such as a percentage of sales in excess of an annual specified revenue target. SAB No. 101 requires the deferral of contingent rental income until specified targets are met. This SAB relates only to the recognition of the lease revenue in interim periods for financial reporting purposes; it has no effect on the timing of rent payments under the leases. The effect of SAB No. 101 was to defer additional contingent rental income of $425 and $59,322 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 137 which amended Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133 to defer the effective date to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 138 which provides additional guidance and amendments to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133. The Partnership's interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows. The Partnership assesses 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. The Partnership does not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes. The Partnership's interest rate swap agreements are considered to be a hedge against changes in the amount of future cash flows associated with the interest payments of the Partnership's variable rate debt obligations. Accordingly, the interest rate swap agreements are reflected at fair value in the Partnership's consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2001 and the related unrealized gains or losses on these contracts are recorded in partner's capital as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Partnership recognized a transition adjustment of $2,842 as the fair value of these derivative instruments at January 1, 2001. The Partnership recorded a liability and corresponding charge to other comprehensive loss for this amount. As of June 30, 2001, the fair value of the Partnership's derivative instruments represents a liability of $7,110. The estimated net amount recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be reclassified to the statement of operations within the next six months is approximately $3,065. During June, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141, "Business Combinations," and No. 142 "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets". We are currently in the process of evaluating the effect these new standards will have on our financial statements. 3. NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM OPCO The Partnership may lend OpCo up to $50,000 for general corporate purposes pursuant to a revolving credit agreement. The interest rate on this credit agreement is 650 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate. As of June 30, 2001, $36,000 was outstanding under this revolving credit agreement.

On January 26, 2001, the Partnership sold $300,000 of 9.0% senior notes due 2008 and $200,000 of 9.13% senior notes due 2011. The notes are unsecured obligations of the Partnership. MeriStar, together with a number of the subsidiaries of the Partnership, guarantees payment of principal and interest on the notes on a senior unsecured basis. The net proceeds from the sale of $492,000 were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and to make payments to terminate some swap agreements that hedged variable interest rates of the loans that were repaid. The terminated swap agreements had notional amounts totaling $300,000. The Partnership recognized a loss of $9,297 to terminate these swap agreements. The repayments of term loans under the Credit Facility resulted in an extraordinary loss of $1,243 ($1,226, net of tax) from the write-off of deferred financing costs. 5. DISTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE On June 28, 2001, the Partnership declared a distribution for the three months ended June 30, 2001 of $0.505 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $0.5575 per Class C OP Unit. The distribution was paid on July 13, 2001. F-27 175 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 6.

8. PARTICIPATING LEASE AGREEMENTS Changes to the federal tax laws governing REITs became effective on January 1, 2001. Under those changes, the Partnership created taxable REIT subsidiaries that lease the hotels the Partnership currently owns. The taxable subsidiaries are wholly-owned and are similar to a subchapter C corporation. Accordingly, as of January 1, 2001, OpCo assigned the participating leases to the taxable REIT subsidiaries and the taxable subsidiaries entered into management agreements with OpCo to manage the properties. Under these management agreements, the taxable REIT subsidiaries pay OpCo a management fee. The taxable REIT subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to the Partnership under the participating leases. The management agreements have been structured to substantially mirror the economics and terms of the former leases. As of June 30, 2001, the Partnership leases four hotels to Prime Hospitality. These leases continue to have non-cancelable remaining terms ranging from 8 to 10 years, subject to earlier termination on the occurrence of certain contingencies, as defined. The rent due under each percentage lease is the greater of base rent or percentage rent, as defined. Percentage rent applicable to room and food and beverage revenue varies by lease and is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by the total amounts of such revenues over specified threshold amounts. Both the minimum rent and the revenue thresholds used in computing percentage rents are subject to annual adjustments based on increases in the United States Consumer Price Index. Percentage rent applicable to other revenues is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by the total amounts of such revenues. During interim reporting periods, the Partnership defers recognition of revenue for lease payments considered to be contingent until specified percentage rent thresholds are met. Total lease payments on the Prime Hospitality leases were $7,536 for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Total lease payment on all of the leases were $201,385 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. F-29 177 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION As of March 31, 2001, MeriStar has granted 586,500 shares of MeriStar restricted stock to the Partnership's employees. This restricted stock vests ratably over a three-year or five-year period. On March 29, 2000, the Partnership granted 462,500 Profits-Only OP Units, or POPs, to some of the executive officers pursuant to the POPs Plan. The units vest ratably over three years based on achieving certain operating performance criteria and upon the occurrence of certain other events. The Profits-Only OP Units are subject to variable plan accounting. On April 16, 2001, the Partnership granted 350,000 POPs to some of our executives pursuant to our POPs plan. The units vest ratably over three years and upon the occurrence of certain other events. 10. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS On March 21, 2001, the Partnership sold one hotel and received proceeds of $7,274. The sale resulted in a loss of $1,081 ($1,062, net of tax). On May 2, 2001, the Partnership terminated the leases of four hotels from affiliates of Prime Hospitality Corporation for a total cost of $1,315. Concurrently, the Partnership signed long-term management agreements with MeriStar Hotels for these properties. F-30 178 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.

Under the merger agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor's operating partnership will merge with and into the Partnership, and MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor. Holders of MeriStar common stock will receive 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock and $4.60 in cash for each share of MeriStar's common stock. Holders of OP Units will receive $4.60 in cash and 0.784 of FelCor Operating Partnership Units. Class D Preferred OP Units will get Series D preferred Units in FelCor Operating Partnership on a one for one basis. The merger agreement requires the approval of holders of a majority of MeriStar's outstanding shares of common stock and holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of FelCor. MeriStar currently expect the merger to close during the third quarter of 2001. FelCor has filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC in connection with the merger transaction. The registration statement has not yet been declared effective. The Form S-4 contains a prospectus, a proxy statement, and other documents for MeriStar's stockholder meeting and that of FelCor, at which time the proposed transaction will be considered. MeriStar and FelCor plan to mail the proxy statement and prospectus contained in the Form S-4 to their respective stockholders after the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. The Form S-4, proxy statement and prospectus will contain important information about MeriStar, FelCor, the merger and related matters. Investors and stockholders should read the Form S-4, proxy statement and the prospectus and the other documents filed with the SEC in connection with the merger carefully before they make any decision with respect to the merger. For more information regarding the persons participating in the solicitation and their interest in the merger, please see MeriStar's Statement on Schedule 14A, filed on May 10, 2001. F-33 181 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Partners MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. and subsidiaries (the "Partnership") as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related consolidated statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2000. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule of real estate and accumulated depreciation. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. F-38 186 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 AND 1998 (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 1. ORGANIZATION MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Partnership") owns a portfolio of primarily upscale, full-service hotels, diversified by franchise and brand affiliations, in the United States and Canada. Substantially all of the Partnership's hotels are leased to and operated by MeriStar Hotel & Resorts, Inc. ("OpCo"), an affiliated entity. As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership owned 114 hotels with 29,090 rooms, 106 of which are leased and operated by OpCo. The Partnership was formed on August 3, 1998, as a result of the merger ("the Merger") between CapStar Hotel Company ("CapStar") and American General Hospitality Corporation ("AGH") and the subsequent formation of MeriStar Hospitality Corporation ("MeriStar"), the merged entity. MeriStar, a real estate investment trust ("REIT") is the general partner and owns a one percent interest as of December 31, 2000. The limited partners are MeriStar LP, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of MeriStar, which held approximately a 90 percent interest as of December 31, 2000 and various third parties, which owned an aggregate interest of nine percent at December 31, 2000. In order for MeriStar to maintain its tax status as a REIT, the Partnership has not been permitted to engage in the operations of its hotel properties. To comply with this requirement, the Partnership has leased all of its real property to third-party lessee/managers -- OpCo and Prime Hospitality Corporation. On January 1, 2001, the REIT Modernization Act (the "RMA") became law. The RMA permits the Partnership to create wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries (the "TRS") on or after January 1, 2001, which will be subject to taxation similar to a subchapter C-Corporation. A TRS will be allowed to lease the real property owned by the Partnership. Also, the RMA prohibits a TRS from engaging in certain activities. First, a TRS may not manage the properties itself; it will need to 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. Second, a TRS may not lease a property that contains gambling operations. Third, a TRS may not own a brand or franchise. The Partnership believes that establishing these taxable REIT subsidiaries to lease its properties will provide a more efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interests of property ownership. Until January 1, 2001, the Partnership leased 106 hotels to OpCo. Each of the leases was a 12-year participating lease under which OpCo paid the Partnership a fixed base rent plus participating rent based on a percentage of hotel revenues. Because of the RMA, the Partnership has created a number of taxable REIT subsidiaries. The Partnership and OpCo have also agreed to assign the leases for the 106 hotels to these taxable REIT subsidiaries. The new management agreements have been structured to mirror the current economics of the existing leases. The transactions did not result in any cash consideration exchanged among the parties. Under the new management agreements, the base management fee is 2.5 percent of total hotel operating revenue with incentives up to an additional 1.5 percent of total revenue if certain operating thresholds are achieved. The agreements have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at OpCo's option, subject to some exceptions. Because of these changes, the Partnership now bears the operating risk associated with its properties. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and all of its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and affiliated companies in which the Partnership holds a voting interest of 50% or less and exercises significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. F-39 187 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) The Partnership uses the cost method to account for its investment in entities in which it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence. Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash -- The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash represents amounts required to be maintained in escrow under certain of the Partnership's credit facilities. Investments in Hotel Properties -- Investments in hotel properties are recorded at cost, which includes the allocated purchase price for hotel acquisitions, or at fair value at the time of contribution for contributed property. Property and equipment balances are depreciated using the straight-line method over lives ranging from five to 40 years. For the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership capitalized interest of $8,613, $12,540, and $5,182, respectively. Properties held for sale are carried at the lower of their carrying values or estimated fair values less costs to sell. Depreciation of these properties is discontinued when an operating property is classified as held for sale. Properties held for sale are not material and, therefore, are included in investments in hotel properties. Intangible Assets -- Intangible assets consist primarily of deferred financing fees. These deferred fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related borrowings for up to 10 years. Total accumulated amortization at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $5,575 and $2,847, respectively. In 1999 and 1998, the Partnership recognized extraordinary losses of $4,551 and $1,238 (net of tax effect of $74 and $207), respectively, due to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees in conjunction with refinancing certain credit facilities. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of -- The carrying values of long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and all intangibles, are evaluated periodically in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying assets. Adjustments are made if the sum of expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than book value. No impairment losses were recorded during 2000, 1999 or 1998. Income Taxes -- No provision for federal income taxes has been reflected in the financial statements because all taxable income or loss, or tax credits are passed through to the partners. The Partnership is subject to state, local and foreign taxes in certain jurisdictions. Foreign Currency Translation -- Results of operations for the Partnership's Canadian hotels are maintained in Canadian dollars and translated using the average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income. Revenue Recognition -- Prior to the Merger, revenue was earned through the operations and management of the hotel properties and was recognized when earned. Subsequent to the Merger, the Partnership earns participating lease revenue. Participating lease revenue represents lease payments from lessees pursuant to participating lease agreements. Office, retail and parking rental is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Participating Lease Agreements -- The Partnership's participating leases have non-cancelable remaining terms ranging from 8 to 10 years, subject to earlier termination on the occurrence of certain contingencies, as defined. The rent due under each percentage lease is the greater of base rent or percentage rent, as defined. Percentage rent applicable to room and food and beverage revenue varies by lease and is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by the total amounts of such revenues over specified threshold amounts. Both the minimum rent and the revenue thresholds used in computing percentage rents are subject to annual adjustments based on increases in the United States Consumer Price Index. Percentage rent applicable to other revenues is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by F-40 188 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) the total amounts of such revenues. During interim reporting periods, the Partnership defers recognition of revenue for lease payments considered to be contingent until specified percentage rent thresholds are met. Changes to the federal tax laws governing REITs were enacted in 1999 and became effective on January 1, 2001. Under those changes, the Partnership is permitted to create subsidiaries that lease the property the Partnership currently owns and are taxable, similar to a subchapter C-Corporation. The Partnership's taxable REIT subsidiaries are wholly-owned. Accordingly, the Partnership and OpCo assigned the participating leases to the taxable REIT subsidiaries and the taxable REIT subsidiaries entered into management agreements with OpCo to manage the Partnership's properties. Under these management agreements, the taxable subsidiaries pay OpCo a management fee. The taxable REIT subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to the Partnership under the participating leases. The management agreements have been structured to substantially mirror the economics of the former leases. Financial Instruments -- From time to time the Partnership enters into swap and collar agreements that are designated as, and are effective as, hedges against the impact of interest rate fluctuation on certain of the Partnership's existing and probable future long-term debt instruments. Because these agreements qualify for hedge accounting treatment, any gains or losses are recognized as adjustments to interest expense over the lives of the underlying debt instruments. For hedge agreements associated with anticipated future debt instruments, gains or losses are deferred until those debt instruments are entered into. If the Partnership determines it is no longer probable that the Partnership will enter into an anticipated debt instrument, any related deferred gains or losses are recognized in the current period. Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Segment Information -- SFAS 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. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about product and services, geographic areas and major customers. Based on the guidance provided in the standard, the Partnership has determined that its business is conducted in one operating segment. The following table summarizes geographic information required to be disclosed under SFAS No. 131:
2000 1999 1998 -------- -------- -------- REVENUE: U.S. ............................................. $394,264 $367,809 $507,078 Foreign........................................... 6,521 7,011 14,953 -------- -------- -------- $400,785 $374,820 $522,031 ======== ======== ========

Comprehensive Income -- SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," requires an enterprise to display comprehensive income and its components in a financial statement to be included in an enterprise's full set of annual financial statements or in the notes to financial statements. Comprehensive F-41 189 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) income represents a measure of all changes in equity of an enterprise that result from recognized transactions and other economic events for the period other than transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Comprehensive income of the Partnership includes net income and other comprehensive income from foreign currency items. Accumulated other comprehensive loss included in partners' capital was $6,081 and $5,247 as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. New Accounting Pronouncements -- In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in balance sheets and measure those instruments at fair value. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137 which amended SFAS No. 133 to defer the effective date to all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138 which provides additional guidance and amendments to SFAS No. 133. The Partnership recognized a transition adjustment of $2,842 as the fair value of its derivative instruments at January 1, 2001. The transition adjustment resulted in an interest rate swap liability and a corresponding charge to other comprehensive income. 3.

4. INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO AFFILIATES The Partnership has ownership interests in certain unconsolidated joint ventures and affiliated companies. In 2000, the Partnership invested $2,100 in STS Hotel Net, a Partnership that provides high-speed internet portals to guest rooms. This investment is accounted for using the cost method. In 1999, the Partnership invested $40,000 in MeriStar Investment Partners, LP ("MIP"), a joint venture established to acquire upscale, full-service hotels. The Partnership's investment is in the form of a preferred partnership interest. The Partnership receives a 16% preferred return on its investment. 5. NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM LESSEE On March 1, 2000, OpCo repaid the remaining balance of $57,110 on its revolving credit agreement with the Partnership upon closing its bank revolving credit facility. At that time, OpCo's revolving credit agreement with the Partnership was also amended to reduce the maximum borrowing limit from $75,000 to $50,000. Any amounts outstanding will bear interest at the rate of the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate plus 650 basis points. F-42 190 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 6. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consists of the following:
DECEMBER 31, ----------------------- 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- Credit Facility............................................. $ 898,000 $ 908,000 Secured Facility............................................ 324,554 328,954 Mortgage Debt and Other..................................... 59,036 65,276 ---------- ---------- Mortgages and Notes Payable............................... 1,281,590 1,302,230 Notes Payable to MeriStar................................... 356,729 374,541 ---------- ---------- $1,638,319 $1,676,771 ========== ==========
Credit Facility -- In conjunction with the Merger, the Partnership entered into a $1,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility is structured as a $300,000, five-year term loan facility; a $200,000, five-and-a-half year term loan facility; and a $500,000, three-year revolving credit facility with two one-year optional extensions. The Credit Facility is secured by MeriStar's common stock, and the partners' ownership interests in the Partnership and its subsidiaries. The interest rate on the term loans and revolving facility ranges from 100 to 200 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), depending on certain financial performance covenants and long-term senior unsecured debt ratings. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 was 8.3% and 8.4%, respectively. As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership had $98.0 million available under the Credit Facility's revolving facility. Secured Facility -- In 1999, the Partnership completed a $330,000 10-year non-recourse financing ("Secured Facility") secured by a portfolio of 19 hotels. The loan bears a fixed interest rate of 8.01% and matures in 2009. The Partnership used most of the net proceeds to repay the amounts outstanding under prior credit facilities. Mortgage Debt -- In connection with the Merger, the Partnership assumed mortgage debt secured by seven hotels. The mortgage debt matures between 2001 and 2012 and the interest rates on the mortgages range from 7.5% to 10.5%. Notes Payable to MeriStar -- In 1997, MeriStar completed the offering of $150,000 aggregate principal amount (issue price of $149,799, net of discount) of its 8.75% senior subordinated notes due 2007 (the "Subordinated Notes"). In conjunction with this transaction, the Partnership borrowed $150,000 from MeriStar under terms matching those of the Subordinated Notes; however, the interest rate on the Partnership's note to MeriStar is 8.69%, the effective rate on the Subordinated Notes. The indenture pursuant to which the Subordinated Notes were issued contains certain covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, reporting requirements, and other customary restrictions. The note provides for semi-annual payments of interest on February 15 and August 15, commencing on February 15, 1998. In 1999, under terms matching those of the Subordinated Notes, MeriStar completed an "add-on" offering of $55,000 of Subordinated Notes. In conjunction with the "add-on" sale of Subordinated Notes, the Partnership borrowed $55,000 from MeriStar under terms matching those of the Subordinated Notes however, the interest rate on the Partnership's note to MeriStar is 8.69%, the effective rate on the Subordinated Notes. The Partnership used the net proceeds to repay indebtedness under its Credit Facility and to invest in MIP. These notes are unsecured obligations of the Partnership and provide for semi-annual payments of interest on February 15 and August 15, commencing on August 15, 1999. The outstanding balance on these notes payable to MeriStar is $202,429 and $202,041 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. F-43 191 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In 1997, MeriStar completed the offering of $172,500 aggregate principal amount of its 4.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2004 (the "Convertible Notes"). In conjunction with this transaction, the Partnership borrowed $172,500 from MeriStar under terms matching those of the Convertible Notes. The proceeds were used to repay outstanding indebtedness under a prior credit facility and to finance certain hotel acquisitions. The note provides for semi-annual payments of interest on April 15 and October 15, commencing on April 15, 1998. During 2000, the Partnership repaid $18,200 of its note to MeriStar at a discount in connection with MeriStar's repurchase of its Convertible Notes at an equal discount. This resulted in an extraordinary gain of $3,450 ($3,400, net of taxes). The outstanding balance on this note payable to MeriStar is $154,300 and $172,500 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Hedge Agreements -- As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership has seven swap agreements with notional principal amounts totaling $700,000. These swap agreements provide hedges against the impact future interest rates have on the Partnership's floating London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") debt instruments. The swap agreements effectively fix the 30-day LIBOR between 6.0% and 7.2%. The swap agreements expire between September 2001 and July 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Partnership has received net payments of $3,081 on these swaps and other similar swaps that expired during the year. In anticipation of the August 1999 completion of the Secured Facility, the Partnership entered into two separate hedge transactions during July 1999. Upon completion of the Secured Facility, the Partnership terminated the underlying treasury lock agreements, resulting in a net payment to the Partnership of $5,100. The amount was deferred and is being recognized as a reduction to interest expense over the life of the underlying debt. As a result, the effective interest rate on the Secured Facility is 7.76%. As of December 31, 2000, after consideration of the hedge agreements described above, the Partnership has fixed the effective interest rate on 88% of its long-term debt and its overall weighted average interest rate is 7.93%. Future Maturities -- Aggregate future maturities of the above obligations are as follows: 2001.................................................... $ 28,288 2002.................................................... 47,897 2003.................................................... 667,589 2004.................................................... 361,168 2005.................................................... 9,265 Thereafter.............................................. 524,112 ---------- $1,638,319 ==========
Management has determined that the fair value of the outstanding balance of the Partnership's long-term debt approximates $1,589,311 at December 31, 2000. F-44 192 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 7. INCOME TAXES The Partnership's income taxes were allocated as follows:

There is no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2000 or 1999 as management believes it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be fully realized. F-45 193 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) In conjunction with the Merger and related transactions, the Partnership established a new accounting basis for AGH's assets and liabilities based on their fair values. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Partnership has provided a deferred income tax liability for the estimated future tax effect of differences between the accounting and tax bases of assets acquired from AGH. This deferred income tax liability, related to future state and local income taxes, is estimated as $5,440, based on information available at the date of the Merger and subsequently. 8. PARTNERSHIP UNITS The outstanding units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership are redeemable at the option of the holder for a like number of shares of common stock of MeriStar, or cash, or a combination thereof, at the election of MeriStar. Due to these redemption rights, these limited partnership units have been excluded from partners' capital and are included in redeemable OP units and measured at redemption value as of the end of the periods presented. At December 31, 2000 and 1999 there were 4,056,111 and 4,544,420 redeemable units outstanding, respectively. The value of these redeemable units is based on the closing market price of MeriStar's common stock at the balance sheet date, which at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $19.70 and $16.00, respectively. In addition, there were 392,157 Class D Preferred OP Units outstanding at December 31, 2000 and 1999 with a redemption value of $22.16 per unit. The Partnership's agreement provides for four classes of partnership interests ("OP Units"): Common OP Units, Class B OP Units, Class C OP Units and Class D OP Units. Common OP Units and Class B OP Units receive quarterly distributions per OP Unit equal to the dividend paid on each share of MeriStar's common stock. Class C OP Units receive a non-cumulative, quarterly distribution equal to $0.5575 per Class C OP Unit until such time as the dividend rate on MeriStar's common stock exceeds $0.5575 whereupon the Class C OP Units automatically convert into Common OP Units. Class D OP Units pay a 6.5% cumulative annual preferred return based on an assumed price per common share of $22.16, compounded quarterly to the extent not paid on a current basis. The Partnership may redeem them at any time after April 1, 2000 at a price of $22.16 per share for cash or, at MeriStar's option, for shares of MeriStar common stock having a value equal to the redemption price. The holders have the option to redeem the Class D OP Units at any time after April 1, 2004 for cash or, at the holders option, for shares of MeriStar common stock having a value equal to $22.16. All net income earned and capital proceeds received by the Partnership, after payment of the annual preferred return on Class D OP units, are shared by the holders of the Common OP Units. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, outstanding OP Units were 48,459,145 and 51,800,888 respectively. During 1999, 65,875 Common OP Units were issued to partially finance the purchase of a hotel and 974,588 Common OP units were issued as a conditional component of a purchase agreement for a hotel purchased in 1998. During 1998, 962,858 Common and Class B OP Units were issued to partially finance the purchases of certain hotels and 3,305,175 Common OP Units were issued to former holders of AGH OP Units. During 1997, the Partnership issued 1,483,759 Common and Class B OP Units and 392,157 Class D OP Units to partially finance the purchases of certain hotels and lease contracts on other hotels. On March 21, 2000, June 21, 2000, September 25, 2000, and December 20, 2000, the Partnership declared its first, second, third and fourth quarter distributions, respectively, equivalent to an annual rate of $2.02 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $2.23 per Class C OP Unit in the Partnership. The amount of the distribution for each quarter was $0.505 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $0.5575 per Class C OP Unit and was paid on April 28, 2000, July 31, 2000, October 31, 2000 and January 31, 2001, respectively. On March 17, 1999, June 21, 1999, September 15, 1999, and December 6, 1999, the Partnership declared its first, second, third and fourth quarter distributions, respectively, equivalent to an annual rate of F-46 194 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) $2.02 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $2.23 per Class C OP Unit in the Partnership. The amount of the distribution for each quarter was $0.505 per Common and Class C OP Unit and $0.5575 per Class C OP Unit and was paid on April 30, 1999, July 30, 1999, October 29, 1999 and January 31, 2000, respectively. On September 2, 1998 and November 4, 1998, respectively, the Partnership declared its third and fourth quarter distributions, equivalent to an annual rate of $2.02 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $2.23 per Class C OP Unit in the Partnership. The third quarter distribution was paid on a prorated basis from August 4, 1998 (the first day of operations following the Merger) through September 30, 1998. The amount of the distribution was $0.31837 per Common and Class B OP Unit and was paid on October 30, 1998. The fourth quarter distribution of $0.505 per Common and Class B OP Unit and $0.5575 per Class C OP Unit was paid on January 29, 1999. When MeriStar, the general partner, repurchases its outstanding common stock, the Partnership repurchases a matching number of units held by MeriStar at an equal price. In September 1999, MeriStar's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to five million shares of its common stock from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions. As of December 31, 2000, MeriStar has repurchased a total of 4,083,204 shares for $72,354 which has been recorded as a reduction to partners' capital as a result of the redemption of units held by MeriStar to fund the repurchase.

10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Pursuant to an intercompany agreement, the Partnership and OpCo provide each other with, among other things, reciprocal rights to participate in certain transactions entered into by each party. In particular, OpCo has a right of first refusal to become the lessee of any real property acquired by the Partnership. OpCo also may provide the Partnership with certain services including administrative, renovation supervision, corporate, accounting, finance, insurance, legal, tax, information technology, human resources, acquisition identification and due diligence, and operational services, for which OpCo is compensated in an amount that the Partnership would be charged by a third party for comparable services. During the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership paid OpCo $1,165, $1,600 and $781 respectively, for such services. F-48 196 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) Summarized financial information of the Partnership's significant lessee, OpCo, is as follows:

OpCo has a revolving credit facility with the Partnership. On March 1, 2000, OpCo repaid the remaining balance of $57,110 on its revolving credit agreement with the Partnership upon closing its bank revolving credit facility. At this time, the revolving credit agreement was amended to reduce the maximum borrowing limit from $75,000 to $50,000 and the interest rate on the facility was changed from LIBOR plus 350 basis points to LIBOR plus 650 basis points. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership earned interest of $955, $4,907, and $1,967, respectively, from this facility. There were no amounts outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2000. In order for AGH to qualify as a REIT prior to the Merger, AGH's operating partnership sold certain personal property relating to certain of the hotels acquired by AGH in connection with its initial public offering to AGH Leasing, L.P. (which has since come under the control of OpCo) for $315, which amount was paid by issuance of a promissory note to AGH's operating partnership. The note was transferred to the Partnership in connection with the Merger. The promissory note bears interest at the rate of 10.0% per annum and requires the payment of quarterly installments of principal and interest over a five-year period ending on July 31, 2000. This note was repaid during 2000. Certain members of management and their respective affiliates owned equity interests relating to a hotel which was acquired by the Partnership in January 1999. Such persons and affiliates received an aggregate of $1,488 of the Partnership's OP Units in exchange for such interests in the hotel. 11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION MeriStar sponsors a restricted stock plan and a stock option plan (the "Plans") in which Partnership employees participate. Upon issuance of any stock, MeriStar is obligated to contribute the proceeds to the Company in exchange for an equal number of OP units. Stock Options At the date of the Merger, CapStar had outstanding approximately 1,758,000 options (the "CapStar Options") under an equity incentive plan. As a result of the Merger, all holders of CapStar Options received one option in MeriStar and one option in OpCo, and the original exercise price of the CapStar Options was allocated between the two companies. In addition, approximately 1,060,000 of the CapStar Options became fully vested as of the Merger date. In connection with the Merger, a new equity incentive plan (the "Equity Incentive Plan") was adopted. This plan authorizes 4,549,561 shares of common stock to be awarded. Awards may be granted to officers or other key employees of MeriStar or an affiliate. These shares are exercisable in three annual installments and expire ten years from the grant date.

Other Stock Compensation In conjunction with the Merger, holders of CapStar options were granted a total of 150,000 shares of stock with a value of $3,205. This restricted stock vests ratably over a three-year period. As of December 31, 2000, MeriStar granted 586,500 shares of restricted stock. This restricted stock vests ratably over a three-year or five-year period. The Partnership incurred $3,070 in compensation expense in 2000 related to the amortization of this restricted stock. As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership has issued 462,500 Profits-Only OP Units to certain of the Partnership's executive officers pursuant to a Profits-Only Operating Partnership Units Plan. The units vest over three years based on achieving certain operating performance criteria and upon the occurrence of certain other events. The Profits-Only OP Units are subject to variable plan accounting. F-50 198 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Partnership leases land at certain hotels from third parties. Certain leases contain contingent rent features based on gross revenues at the respective property.

Until January 1, 2001 the Partnership leased all of its hotels to OpCo and one other lessee under non-cancelable participating leases that expire from 2009 to 2011. Beginning January 1, 2001, the Partnership will lease eight hotels to one lessee under non-cancelable participating leases that expire in 2009. The Partnership also leases certain office, retail and parking space to outside parties under non-cancelable operating leases with initial or remaining terms in excess of one year. Future minimum rental receipts under these non-cancelable leases as of December 31, 2000 were as follows: 2001..................................................... $ 20,289 2002..................................................... 19,801 2003..................................................... 18,937 2004..................................................... 18,590 2005..................................................... 16,945 Thereafter............................................... 63,428 -------- $157,990 ========
In the course of the Partnership's normal business activities, various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against the Partnership. Based on currently available facts, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Partnership. 13. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS During 2000, the Partnership sold three limited service hotels and received proceeds of $24,148. This resulted in a gain on sale of assets of $3,495 ($3,439, net of tax). The Partnership also purchased a full service hotel for $19,400. Of the $19,400, $11,400 was paid in cash and $8,000 will be paid from the hotel's future cash flow within the next five years. The acquisition was funded using existing cash and borrowings on the Credit Facility. During 1999, the Partnership acquired one hotel for a purchase price of $10,642 of cash and $1,488 of OP Units. The acquisition was funded using existing cash and borrowings on the Credit Facility. The Partnership also sold 2 hotels during 1999 for a total price of $8,900. The resulting gain on the sales was immaterial. During 1998, the Partnership acquired 70 hotels (containing 17,332 rooms), of which 53 were acquired pursuant to the Merger. MeriStar purchased AGH for approximately $1,306,000. MeriStar contributed the net assets acquired to the Partnership in exchange for approximately 23,913,000 OP Units. The total purchase price for the remaining 17 acquired hotels during 1998 was $549,068 of cash and F-51 199 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) $16,932 of OP Units.

F-59 207 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On January 26, 2001, the Partnership sold $300,000 of 9.0% senior notes due 2008 and $200,000 of 9.13% senior notes due 2011 (collectively the "Senior Unsecured Notes"). The notes are unsecured obligations of the Partnership. MeriStar, together with a number of the Partnership's subsidiaries, guarantee payment of principal and interest on the notes on a senior unsecured basis. The net proceeds from the sale of $492,000 were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and to make payments to terminate certain agreements that hedged variable interest rates of the loans that were repaid. The terminated swap agreements had notional amounts of $300,000. The Partnership recognized a loss of $9,297 on these terminations. In the first quarter 2001, the Partnership wrote-off its $2,112 investment in STS Hotel Net after determining that the carrying value of the investment was not recoverable. On May 2, 2001, the Partnership paid $1,504 to acquire four hotel leases from affiliates of Prime Hospitality Corporation. Concurrently, the Partnership signed long-term management contracts with OpCo for these properties. On May 9, 2001, the Partnership and MeriStar entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated ("FelCor")and its operating partnership. Under the merger agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FelCor's operating partnership will merge with and into the Partnership, and MeriStar will merge with and into FelCor. Holders of MeriStar common stock will receive 0.784 of a share of FelCor common stock and $4.60 in cash for each share of MeriStar's common stock. Holders of OP Units will receive $4.60 in cash and 0.784 FelCor operating partnership units. Class D Preferred OP Units will get Series D preferred units in FelCor operating partnership on a one for one basis. The merger agreement requires the approval of holders of a majority of MeriStar's outstanding shares of common stock and holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of FelCor. MeriStar currently expects the merger to close during the third quarter of 2001. F-60 208 MERISTAR HOSPITALITY OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.

F-64 212 APPENDIX I MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF MERISTAR LP GENERAL MeriStar LP was created on August 3, 1998, when American General Hospitality Corporation, a corporation operating as a REIT, and its associated entities merged with CapStar Hotel Company and its associated entities. In connection with the merger between CapStar and American General, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc., a separate publicly traded company, was created to be the lessee and manager of all but eight of the MeriStar LP hotels. The eight hotels not leased by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts were leased by affiliates of Prime Hospitality Corporation. Prior to January 1, 2001, in order for MeriStar to maintain its tax status as a REIT, MeriStar LP was not permitted to participate in the operations of the hotel properties. To comply with this requirement through December 31, 2000, all of the properties were subject to leases involving two third-party lessees, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts and Prime Hospitality Corporation. On January 1, 2001, changes to the federal tax laws governing REITs, commonly known as the REIT Modernization Act, became effective. The REIT Modernization Act permits MeriStar LP to create taxable REIT subsidiaries on or after January 1, 2001, which are subject to taxation as C corporations. Because of the REIT Modernization Act, MeriStar LP created a number of these taxable REIT subsidiaries that are the lessees of its real property. The REIT Modernization Act prohibits the taxable REIT subsidiaries from engaging in the following activities: - they may not manage the properties themselves; they are required to enter into arms length management agreements with independent third-party managers that are actively involved in the trade or business of hotel management and manage properties on behalf of other owners, - they may not lease a property that contains gambling operations, and - they may not own a brand or franchise under which hotels are operated. MeriStar LP believes that establishing taxable REIT subsidiaries to lease the properties provides a more efficient alignment of and ability to capture the economic interests of property ownership. Under the prior lease structure with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, MeriStar LP received lease payments based on the revenues generated by the properties, but MeriStar Hotels & Resorts operated the properties in order to maximize net operating income from the properties. This inconsistency could potentially result in the properties being operated in a way that did not maximize revenues. With the assignment of the leases for each of the 106 properties managed by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to the taxable REIT subsidiaries and the execution of the new management agreements, MeriStar LP gained the economic risks and rewards related to the properties that are usually associated with ownership of real estate, and property revenues became the basis for MeriStar Hotels & Resorts' management fees. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, one hotel was sold, and MeriStar LP terminated four of the eight leases with Prime Hospitality. At June 30, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts manages 109 of MeriStar LP's hotels. Subsidiaries of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assigned their participating leases to MeriStar LP's wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries as of January 1, 2001. In connection with the assignment, MeriStar LP's taxable REIT subsidiaries executed new management agreements with a subsidiary of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage the hotels. Under these management agreements, the taxable REIT subsidiaries pay a management fee to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts for each property. The taxable REIT subsidiaries in turn make rental payments to MeriStar LP under the participating leases. The management agreements have been structured to substantially mirror the economics of the former leases. The transactions did not result in any cash consideration exchanged among the parties except in regard to the transfer of hotel operating assets and liabilities to the taxable REIT subsidiaries. Under the new management agreements, the base I-1 213 management fee is 2.5% of total hotel revenue plus incentive payments, based on meeting performance thresholds, that could total up to 1.5% of total hotel revenue. The agreements have an initial term of 10 years with three renewal periods of five years each at the option of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, subject to some exceptions. Because these leases have been assigned to MeriStar LP's taxable REIT subsidiaries, MeriStar LP now bears the operating risk associated with the hotels. FINANCIAL CONDITION June 30, 2001 Compared with December 31, 2000 MeriStar LP's total assets increased by $78.5 million to $3,085.0 million at June 30, 2001 from $3,006.5 million at December 31, 2000 primarily due to: - lending $36.0 million to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts under a revolving credit agreement; - deferring $8.1 million in financing costs related to issuing $500 million of senior unsecured notes; - capital expenditures at the hotels; - the increase in cash and other operating assets of $65.7 million related to the assignment of the hotel leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to the taxable subsidiaries; partially offset by - the decrease of $11.3 million due from MeriStar Hotels & Resorts; - the sale of one hotel and the use of the $7.3 million in proceeds to paydown debt; and - depreciation on hotel assets. Total liabilities increased by $93.0 million to $1,865.5 million at June 30, 2001 from $1,772.5 million at December 31, 2000 due mainly to: - net borrowings of long-term debt; - a $16.0 million increase in accrued interest due to the $500 million senior secured notes sold in January 2001; - the adoption of FASB 133 and the related recording of a $7.1 million liability for the derivative instruments; and - the increase in operating liabilities of $65.7 million related to the assignment of the hotel leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to the taxable REIT subsidiaries. Long-term debt increased by $14.8 million to $1,653.1 million at June 30, 2001 from $1,638.3 million at December 31, 2000 due primarily to: - $500 million in senior unsecured notes sold, partially offset set by - the repayment of the revolving credit facility from the proceeds of the senior unsecured notes borrowings and cash generated by operations. Partners' capital decreased $25.9 million to $1,116.9 million at June 30, 2001 from $1,142.8 million at December 31, 2000 due primarily to: - the payment of distributions; - allocations of capital to redeemable unitholders as a result of increases in MeriStar's stock price; and - $7.1 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss due mainly to the adoption of FASB 133 described above; partially offset by - net income for 2001; and - the issuance of additional common limited partnership units to MeriStar. I-2 214 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2000. Until January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts leased substantially all of MeriStar LP's hotels. Under these leases, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assumed all of the operating risks and rewards of these hotels and paid MeriStar LP a percentage of each hotel's revenue under the lease agreements. Therefore, for financial statement purposes through December 31, 2000, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts recorded all of the operating revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statements of operations, and MeriStar LP recorded lease revenue earned under the lease agreements in its statements of operations. Effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts assigned the hotel leases to MeriStar LP's newly created, wholly owned, taxable REIT subsidiaries and its taxable REIT subsidiaries, in turn, entered into management agreements with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts to manage the hotels. As a result of this change in structure, MeriStar LP's wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries have assumed the operating risks and rewards of the hotels and now pay MeriStar Hotels & Resorts a management fee to manage the hotels. For consolidated financial statement purposes, effective January 1, 2001, MeriStar LP now records all of the revenues and expenses of the hotels in its statements of operations, including the management fee paid to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. MeriStar LP's total revenues and total operating expenses increased $461.3 million and $421.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. As described in the preceding paragraph, the significant increases result from the fact that MeriStar LP now records the hotel operating revenue and expenses in its consolidated financial statements effective January 1, 2001, while it only recorded lease revenue in 2000. As a result, MeriStar LP's operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are not directly comparable to the same period in 2000. For comparative purposes, the following shows the results for the six months ended June 30, 2000 on a pro forma basis assuming the leases with MeriStar Hotels & Resorts were converted to management contracts on January 1, 2000 compared to actual results for the six months ended June 30, 2001 (in thousands):
2001 2000 -------- -------- Revenue..................................................... $609,851 $622,945 Total expenses.............................................. 565,913 548,125 Net income before loss on sale of assets and extraordinary items..................................................... 42,690 73,601 Net income.................................................. 40,402 80,440 Recurring EBITDA............................................ 178,499 187,339
The following table provides MeriStar LP's hotels' operating statistics on a same store basis for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.
2001 2000 CHANGE ------- ------- ------ Revenue per available room................................ $ 79.66 $ 81.18 (1.9)% Average daily rate........................................ $112.28 $110.38 1.7% Occupancy................................................. 70.9% 73.5% (3.6)%
Total revenue decreased $13.0 million to $609.9 million in 2001 from $622.9 million in 2000, on a pro forma basis, due primarily to a $10.1 million decrease in room revenue related to a 3.5% decrease in occupancy. This decrease is attributable to the recent slowing of our national economy and its impact on business and leisure travel. The current economic slowdown and the resulting declines in RevPAR, which began in March 2001, are currently continuing. MeriStar Partnership anticipates that third quarter RevPAR will be less than that of the third quarter of 2000 and less than that of the second quarter of 2001. MeriStar Partnership expects this decline in occupancy during the second and third quarters to lead to declines in room rates as hotels I-3 215 compete more aggressively for guests. If the economic slowdown worsens or continues for a protracted time, it could have a material adverse effect on MeriStar Partnership's operations and earnings. Total expenses increased $17.8 million to $565.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $548.1 million for the same period in 2000 on a pro forma basis due primarily to: - $9.3 million in swap termination costs; - the $2.1 million write down of the investment in STS Hotel Net; - $3.8 million in FelCor merger costs; - $1.3 million in costs to terminate leases with Prime Hospitality Corporation; - an increase in depreciation on hotel assets; and - a $4.2 million increase in property operating costs due primarily to a $3.2 million increase in energy costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, MeriStar LP recorded a charge in the amount of $2.1 million to write-off its investment in STS Hotel Net, a provider of internet access and related services to the hospitality industry. During 2000, STS Hotel Net continued to pursue its business strategy and operate its business. During the first quarter of 2001, STS Hotel Net secured additional equity from an entity which is also engaged in providing similar services to the hospitality industry. Also, during the first quarter of 2001, the operating environment for STS Hotel Net deteriorated significantly and STS Hotel Net was unable to generate adequate revenues or obtain needed additional financing. As a result, STS Hotel Net significantly curtailed its operations and, accordingly, MeriStar LP wrote off its investment in STS Hotel Net at March 31, 2001. Recurring EBITDA is presented before the effect of non-recurring items; the swap termination costs, the write down of the investment in STS Hotel Net, FelCor merger costs and costs to terminate leases with Prime Hospitality Corporation. Recurring EBITDA decreased $8.8 million to $178.5 million in 2001 from $187.3 million in 2000. In 2001, MeriStar LP paid down $300 million of term loans under its revolving credit facility. This resulted in an extraordinary loss of $1.2 million, net of tax effect. In 2001, MeriStar LP sold one hotel and received $7.3 million. This resulted in a loss on the sale of the asset of $1.1 million, net of tax. Year Ended December 31, 2000 compared with the Year Ended December 31, 1999 Until January 1, 2001, substantially all of MeriStar LP's hotels were leased to and operated by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. Participating lease revenue represents lease payments from the lessees under the participating lease agreements. Total revenue increased by $25.9 million to $400.7 million in 2000 compared to $374.8 million in 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $23.7 million in participating lease revenue resulting from an increase in room revenue at MeriStar LP's hotels under lease. The following table provides MeriStar LP's hotels' operating statistics on a same-store basis for the year:
2000 1999 CHANGE ------- ------- ------ Revenue per available room................................ $ 77.71 $ 73.51 5.71% Average daily rate........................................ $107.60 $101.92 5.57% Occupancy................................................. 72.2% 72.1% 0.14%
I-4 216 Operating expenses increased to $170.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $156.5 million for the same period in 1999 due primarily to: - to an increase in depreciation on hotel assets; - an increase in administrative costs, as MeriStar LP added personnel during 2000 to address the operating changes associated with the REIT Modernization Act; and - increased insurance costs. Net interest expense increased $17.1 million to $117.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $100.4 million in 1999 due mainly to: - lower capitalized interest due to a decrease in capital expenditures in 2000; - an increase in variable interest rates during 2000 and higher interest rates on swap arrangements executed in 2000; partially offset by - a lower average debt balance during 2000. In 2000, MeriStar LP repaid $18.2 million of its notes payable to MeriStar at a discount in connection with its repurchase of its convertible notes at an equal discount. This resulted in an extraordinary gain of $3.4 million. In 2000, MeriStar LP sold three limited service hotels and received $24.1 million. This resulted in a gain on sale of assets of $3.4 million. EBITDA grew $20.9 million to $341.0 million in 2000 from $320.1 million in 1999. This growth is due to: - the increase in participating lease revenue; partially offset by - the increase in administrative and insurance costs. Year Ended December 31, 1999 compared with the Year Ended December 31, 1998 Substantially all of MeriStar LP's hotels were leased to and operated by MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. Participating lease revenue represents lease payments from the lessees under the participating lease agreements. Total revenue decreased by $147.2 million to $374.8 million in 1999 compared to $522.0 million in 1998. This decrease was primarily attributable to the change in the types of revenues recorded in MeriStar LP's financial statements in periods before and after August 2, 1998, the date of the merger of CapStar Hotel Company and American General Hospitality Corporation and the spin-off of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. The following table provides MeriStar LP's hotels' operating statistics on a same-store basis for the year:
1999 1998 CHANGE ------- ------- ------ Revenue per available room................................ $ 74.05 $ 71.80 3.1% Average daily rate........................................ $102.39 $100.96 1.4% Occupancy................................................. 72.3% 71.1% 1.7%
There were no department operating expenses in 1999 compared to $142.5 million in 1998. This decrease was the result of the hotel operations being leased to MeriStar Hotels & Resorts after August 2, 1998, in conjunction with the merger and spin-off of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. Undistributed operating expenses decreased significantly in 1999 as a result of the merger. Prior to the spin-off of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, MeriStar LP was responsible for all hotel operating expenses. Subsequent to August 3, 1998, MeriStar LP, as owner and lessor, was only responsible for real estate taxes, property insurance and various other undistributed expenses. Depreciation and amortization I-5 217 increased $43.0 million to $101.8 million in 1999 from $58.8 million in 1998 as a result of the assets acquired in the merger. Net interest expense increased $49.9 million to $100.4 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, from $50.5 million in 1998. This increase was attributable to: - the borrowings used to finance the acquisition of hotels during 1998; - the borrowings used to finance renovations of hotels during 1998 and 1999; - the new debt associated with the merger; - higher average interest rates; and - 1999 borrowings made to finance real estate ventures. In 1999, MeriStar LP recognized extraordinary losses of $4.6 million due to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees in conjunction with refinancing some credit facilities. EBITDA grew $125.3 million to $320.1 million in 1999 from $194.8 million in 1998. This growth is due to: - the merger; - other hotel acquisitions which occurred during 1998; partially offset by - the spin-off of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Sources of Cash MeriStar LP's principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and funds from external borrowings and debt and equity offerings. MeriStar LP expects to fund its continuing operations through cash generated by its hotels. MeriStar LP also expects to finance hotel acquisitions, hotel renovations and joint venture investments through a combination of internally generated cash, external borrowings, and the issuance of its limited partnership units. Additionally, MeriStar must distribute to stockholders at least 90% of its taxable income, excluding net capital gains, to preserve its status as a REIT. MeriStar, as general partner of MeriStar LP, is required to use its best efforts to cause MeriStar LP's partnership distributions to it to be sufficient to comply with this requirement. MeriStar LP expects to fund these distributions through cash generated from operations, borrowings on the credit facilities or through the preferred return on the investment in MeriStar Investment Partners, LP. MeriStar LP generated $114.6 million of cash from operations during the first six months of 2001. Uses of Cash MeriStar LP used $49.6 million of cash in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2001, primarily for: - the $36.0 million note receivable from MeriStar Hotels & Resorts; and - capital expenditures at hotels; partially offset by - hotel operating cash received on lease conversions; and - proceeds from selling one hotel. I-6 218 MeriStar LP used $45.0 million of cash from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2001 primarily for: - payments of financing costs, distributions; and - additional financing costs related to issuing the $500 million of senior unsecured notes, partially offset by net borrowings on our credit facilities. In January 2001, MeriStar LP sold $500 million of senior unsecured notes. The senior unsecured notes are structured as: - $300 million in notes with a 9.0% interest rate which mature on January 15, 2008, and - $200 million in notes with a 9.13% interest rate which mature on January 15, 2011. The proceeds were used to repay outstanding debt under MeriStar LP's revolving credit facility and to make payments to terminate some swap agreements that hedged variable interest rates of the loans that it repaid. The repayments of the term loans under the credit facility resulted in an extraordinary loss of $1.2 million, net of tax. As of June 30, 2001, MeriStar LP had $273.0 million available under its senior secured credit facility. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under MeriStar LP's credit facility as of June 30, 2001 was 7.7%. Capital for renovation work is expected to be provided by a combination of internally generated cash and external borrowings. Initial renovation programs for most of the hotels are complete or nearing completion. Once initial renovation programs for a hotel are completed, MeriStar LP expects to spend approximately 4% annually of hotel revenues for ongoing capital expenditure programs, including room and facilities refurbishments, renovations, and furniture and equipment replacements. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, MeriStar LP spent $23.8 million on renovation and ongoing property capital expenditure programs. MeriStar LP intends to spend an additional $28.0 million during 2001 to complete the renovation programs and for the ongoing capital expenditure programs. MeriStar LP believes cash generated by operations, together with anticipated borrowing capacity under the credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund the existing working capital requirements, ongoing capital expenditures, and debt service requirements. MeriStar LP believes, however, that 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. Accordingly, MeriStar LP may consider increasing the borrowing capacity or issuing additional debt or partnership units and these proceeds could be used to finance acquisitions or investments, refinance existing debt, or repurchase common stock. MeriStar LP is obligated to lend MeriStar Hotels & Resorts up to $50 million for general corporate purposes under a revolving credit agreement. As of June 30, 2001, there was $36 million outstanding under this revolving credit agreement. FelCor, MeriStar Hotels & Resorts and MeriStar LP have agreed to amend, effective when the merger is complete, the credit agreement to fix its maturity at February 28, 2004, set the interest rate at 600 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate and set the default rate of interest at 800 basis points over the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate. MeriStar LP has agreed to use best efforts to obtain the consents of MeriStar Hotels & Resorts' senior lenders to these amendments. 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 the hotels are non-resort properties, the operations generally reflect non-resort seasonality patterns. MeriStar LP has 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.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 6.7 of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership ("FelCor LP"), as amended (the "Partnership Agreement"), provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, but subject to the limitations expressly provided in the Partnership Agreement, FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated ("FelCor"), or its successor or assigns, in its capacity as the general partner of FelCor LP (the "General Partner"), and any person who is or was an officer or director of the General Partner shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Partnership from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative, in which any such party may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as (i) the General Partner, or any of its affiliates, (ii) an officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, or any of its affiliates or (iii) a person serving at the request of the Partnership in another entity in a similar capacity; provided, that in each case such party acted in good faith, in a manner which such party believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe its conduct was unlawful. Any indemnification pursuant to Section 6.7 shall be made only out of the Partnership assets. The charter of FelCor, generally, limits the liability of FelCor's directors and officers to FelCor and the shareholders for money damages to the fullest extent permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of Maryland. The Maryland General Corporation Law ("MGCL") authorizes Maryland corporations to limit the liability of directors and officers to the corporation and its stockholders for money damages except (i) to the extent that it is proved that the director or officer actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services, for the amount of the benefit or profit actually received or (ii) to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer is entered in a proceeding based on a finding in the proceeding that the director's or officer's action, or failure to act, was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding. The charter also provides, generally, for the indemnification of, and advance of expense on behalf of, directors and officers, among others, to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland law. The MGCL authorizes Maryland corporations to indemnify present and past directors and officers of the corporation or of another corporation for which they serve at the request of the corporation against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually incurred in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation in respect of which the person is adjudicated to be liable to the corporation), in which they are made parties by reason of being or having been directors or officers, unless it is proved that (i) the act or omission of the person was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the person actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the person had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The MGCL also provides that, unless limited by the corporation's charter, a corporation shall indemnify present and past directors and officers of the corporation who are successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, against reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with the proceeding. FelCor's charter does not limit the extent of this indemnity. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act") II-1 221 may be permitted to directors and officers of FelCor pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, FelCor has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. FelCor may purchase director and officer liability insurance for the purpose of providing a source of funds to pay any indemnification described above. The MGCL authorizes Maryland corporations to purchase and maintain insurance for former or existing directors or officers of the corporation against any liability assisted against and incurred by such person in that capacity or arising out of such person's position, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify against liability under the MGCL. FelCor's charter does not limit this authority to obtain insurance. ITEM 21. EXHIBITS (a) Exhibits
