FELCOR LODGING TRUST INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization
     In 1994, FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated, or FelCor, went public as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, with six hotels and a market capitalization of $120 million. We are now one of the nation’s largest public lodging REITs, based on total assets and number of hotels owned, holding ownership interests in 134 hotels at September 30, 2005. We are the owner of the largest number of Embassy Suites Hotels® and Doubletree Guest Suites® hotels in North America. Our portfolio includes 68 full service, all suite hotels.
     FelCor is the sole general partner of, and the owner of a more than 95% interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP. All of our operations are conducted solely through FelCor LP, or its subsidiaries.
     At September 30, 2005, we had ownership interests in 134 hotels. We owned a 100% real estate interest in 105 hotels, a 90% or greater interest in entities owning seven hotels, a 60% interest in an entity owning two hotels, a 75% interest in an entity owning one hotel and 50% interests in unconsolidated entities that own 19 hotels. As a result of our ownership interests in the operating lessees of 129 of these hotels, we reflect their operating revenues and expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. The operations of 128 of the 129 consolidated hotels were included in continuing operations at September 30, 2005. The remaining hotel was subject to a firm sale contract at September 30, 2005, and its operations were included in discontinued operations. The operating revenues and expenses of the remaining five hotels are unconsolidated.
     At September 30, 2005, we had an aggregate of 60,209,499 shares of FelCor common stock and 2,762,540 units of FelCor LP limited partnership interest outstanding.
     The following table reflects the distribution, by brand, of the 128 hotels included in our consolidated continuing operations at September 30, 2005:
                 
Brand   Hotels   Rooms
Embassy Suites Hotels
    55       13,922  
Doubletree® and Doubletree Guest Suites
    10       2,206

Other brands
    7       1,811  
 
               
Total hotels

     The hotels shown in the above table are located in the United States (30 states) and Canada (two hotels), with concentrations in Texas (25 hotels), California (19 hotels), Florida (16 hotels) and Georgia (12 hotels). Approximately 55% of our hotel room revenues in continuing operations were generated from hotels in these four states during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
     At September 30, 2005, of the 128 consolidated hotels included in continuing operations, (i) subsidiaries of Hilton Hotels Corporation, or Hilton, managed 65, (ii) subsidiaries of InterContinental Hotels Group, or IHG, managed 49 (iii) subsidiaries of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., or Starwood, managed 11, and (iv) other independent management companies managed three.

FELCOR LODGING TRUST INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization ¾ (continued)
     The financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, is unaudited. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which we consider 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, 2004, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (“Form 10-K”). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
2. Foreign Currency Translation
     Results of operations for our 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 rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income included in stockholders’ equity.
3. Investment in Unconsolidated Entities
     We owned 50% interests in joint venture entities that owned 19 hotels at September 30, 2005, and 20 hotels at December 31, 2004. We also owned a 50% interest in entities that own real estate in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, provide condominium management services, and lease four hotels. We account for our investments in these unconsolidated entities under the equity method. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in our financial statements. We make adjustments to our equity in income from unconsolidated entities related to the difference between our basis in investment in unconsolidated entities compared to the historical basis of the assets recorded by the joint ventures.
     Summarized unaudited combined financial information for 100% of these unconsolidated entities is as follows (in thousands):

(a)   Variable interest rate based on LIBOR. The six month LIBOR was 3.53% at September 30, 2005.
 
(b)   The stated interest rate on this debt is six month LIBOR plus 4.25%. We have swapped $100 million of this floating rate debt for a fixed rate of 7.80%. The resulting weighted average rate on these notes was 7.79% at September 30, 2005.
 
(c)   Variable interest rate based on LIBOR. This debt has two, one-year extension options, subject to certain contingencies.
 
(d)   This represents a $69.8 million recourse construction loan facility for the development of a 184-unit condominium project in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The interest on this facility is currently based on LIBOR plus 225 basis points and is being capitalized as part of the cost of the project. The interest rate may be reduced to LIBOR plus 200 basis points when the project is 55% complete and upon satisfaction of certain other requirements.
 
(e)   Interest rates are calculated based on the weighted average outstanding debt at September 30, 2005.
     We reported interest expense of $33.2 million and $34.3 million, which is net of interest income of $1.2 million and $0.5 million and capitalized interest of $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We reported interest expense of $99.0 million and $113.1 million, which is net of interest income of $2.6 million and $1.9 million and capitalized interest of $1.4 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

4. Debt ¾ (continued)
     At September 30, 2005, we had aggregate mortgage indebtedness of approximately $1.0 billion that was secured by 71 of our consolidated hotels with an aggregate book value of approximately $1.7 billion. With the exception of the $6.0 million construction loan, all of this debt is recourse solely to the specific assets securing the debt, except in the case of fraud, misapplication of funds and other customary recourse carve-out provisions. Loans secured by 33 hotels provide for lock-box arrangements. With respect to loans secured by 15 of these hotels, if the debt service coverage ratios fall below certain levels and certain other conditions are met, the lender is entitled to apply the revenues from the hotels securing the loan to satisfy current requirements for debt service, taxes, insurance and other reserves, and to hold the balance of the revenues, if any, until debt service coverage ratios again reach specified levels.
     With respect to loans secured by the remaining 18 hotels, the owner is permitted to retain 115% of budgeted hotel operating expenses before the remaining revenues would become subject to a lock-box arrangement if a specified debt service coverage ratio was not met. The lender is entitled to apply the remaining revenues to satisfy current requirements for debt service, taxes, insurance and other reserves with any excess cash being returned to the owner. The mortgage loans secured by 16 of these 18 hotels also provide that, so long as the debt service coverage ratios remain below a second, even lower minimum level, the lender may retain any excess cash (after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements) and, if the debt service coverage ratio remains below this lower minimum level for 12 consecutive months, apply any accumulated excess cash to the prepayment of the principal amount of the debt. If the debt service coverage ratio exceeds the lower minimum level for three consecutive months, any then accumulated excess cash will be returned to the owner. Ten of these 18 hotels, which accounted for 6% of our total revenues in 2004, fell below the applicable debt service coverage ratio in 2004 and are currently subject to the lock-box provisions. None of the hotels are currently below the second, even lower minimum debt service coverage ratio that would permit the lender to retain excess cash after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements.
5. Derivatives
     In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives. It is our objective to use interest rate hedges to manage our fixed and floating interest rate position and not to engage in speculation on interest rates. We manage interest rate risk based on the varying circumstances of anticipated borrowings and existing floating and fixed rate debt. We will generally seek to pursue interest rate risk mitigation strategies that will result in the least amount of reported earnings volatility under GAAP while still meeting strategic economic objectives and maintaining adequate liquidity and flexibility. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract.
     To determine the fair values of our derivative instruments, we use 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 September 30, 2005, we had three interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional amount of $100 million, maturing in December 2007. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and are marked to market through other comprehensive income. The estimated unrealized net gain on these interest rate swap agreements was approximately $1.9 million at September 30, 2005, and represents the amount we would receive if the agreements were terminated, based on current market rates. The interest rate received on these interest rate swaps is 4.25% plus LIBOR and the interest rate paid is 7.80%. These swaps were 100% effective through September 30, 2005.

5. Derivatives — (continued)
     The amounts paid or received by us under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements are accrued as interest rates change, and we recognize them as an adjustment to interest expense, which will have a corresponding effect on our future cash flows. The interest rate swaps increased interest expense by $6,100 and by $0.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively.
     Our interest rate swaps have monthly to semi-annual settlement dates. Agreements such as these contain a credit risk in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for each of the financial institutions that are counterparties to our interest rate swap agreements are AA- or better.
     We had fair value hedges with a notional amount of $400 million that we terminated in 2004. These fair value hedges decreased interest by $4.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2004. In June 2004, we unwound six interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $175 million that were matched with the $175 million notes due 2004 that were redeemed. A $1.0 million gain was recorded, offsetting the loss on the redemption of the debt. Also in June 2004, five additional swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $125 million, that were matched to the $125 million senior unsecured notes due 2007, were unwound at a cost of $2.3 million. The $2.3 million cost decreased the book value of these notes and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. In July 2004, the remaining four interest rate swap agreements, having a notional value of $100 million, were unwound at a cost of $1.3 million. The $1.3 million cost decreased the mortgage debt due November 2007 and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of this debt.
     To fulfill requirements under the $150 million secured loan facility executed in April 2003, we purchased 6% interest rate caps with a notional amount of $142.9 million. We concurrently sold interest rate caps with identical terms. In July 2004, we purchased 6.5% interest rate caps on LIBOR, with a notional amount of $86 million, to fulfill requirements under an $86 million cross-collateralized floating rate CMBS loan and concurrently sold interest rate caps with identical terms. These interest rate cap agreements have not been designated as hedges. The fair value of both the purchased and sold interest rate caps were insignificant at September 30, 2005, and resulted in no net earnings impact.
6. Preferred Stock
     We completed the issuance of 5.4 million depositary shares, each depositary share representing 1/100 of a share of our 8% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, on April 8, 2005, and issued an additional 1.4 million depositary shares on August 30, 2005, with gross proceeds of $135 million and $34.4 million, respectively. The gross proceeds were used to redeem a like number of shares of our 9% Series B Preferred Stock. The redemption of the Series B preferred shares resulted in a reduction in income available to common stockholders representing the original issuance cost of the Series B preferred shares redeemed, of $1.3 million and $6.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively.

9. Impairment
     Our hotels are comprised of operations and cash flows that can clearly be distinguished, both operationally and for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, we consider our hotels to be components as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” or SFAS 144, for purposes of determining impairment charges and reporting discontinued operations. We recorded impairment charges under the provisions of the SFAS 144 of $1.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. We recorded $0.7 million of impairment charges in June 2005, with respect to one of our non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations. In July 2005, we entered into a contract for sale of this hotel and reduced our carrying value to the purchase contract amount. We recorded $0.6 million of impairment charges in September 2005, with respect to one of our non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations. In October 2005, we entered into a contract for sale of this hotel and reduced its carrying value to the purchase contract amount.
     We continue to review and evaluate our hotel portfolio on an ongoing basis and may identify additional non-strategic hotels for sale based upon various factors. If we decide to sell additional hotels, or if our estimates of market value for hotels currently designated as non-strategic decline, we could incur future impairment charges.
10. Discontinued Operations
     Included in discontinued operations are the results of operations, through the date of dispositions, of 15 hotels sold or otherwise disposed of in 2005, one hotel designated as held for sale at September 30, 2005, and 18 hotels disposed of in 2004.

     In the third quarter of 2005, we sold the Holiday Inn Jackson North, Mississippi, the Holiday Inn Waco, Texas, and the Embassy Suites St. Louis, Missouri, for aggregate gross proceeds of $44.1 million.
     In the second and third quarter of 2005, we surrendered eight limited service hotels, owned by a consolidated joint venture, to their non-recourse mortgage holder. We recorded a gain of $2.5 million representing the debt extinguished in excess of the book value of these hotels.
     During 2004, we sold 17 hotels for gross proceeds of $157 million. Also in 2004, we terminated a hotel lease and incurred $4.9 million in lease termination charges upon the return of the asset to the lessor.

12. Stock Based Compensation Plans
     We apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25, or APB 25, and related interpretations in accounting for our stock based compensation plans for stock based compensation issued prior to January 1, 2003. In 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” or SFAS 123 was issued, which, if fully adopted by us, would have changed the methods we apply in recognizing the cost of the plans. As permitted under the transition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure,” we began recognizing compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123 for all new awards issued after December 31, 2002. Had the compensation cost for our stock-based compensation plans been determined in accordance with SFAS 123 prior to January 1, 2003, our net income or loss from continuing operations and net income or loss from continuing operations per common share for the periods presented would approximate the pro forma amounts below (in thousands, except per share data):
                                 
    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended

     The effects of applying SFAS 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts.
13. Subsequent Events
     In October 2005, we refinanced certain mortgage debt in conjunction with the recapitalization of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. As a result of these refinancings, we incurred prepayment penalties and will write-off deferred debt costs aggregating $12.7 million, which will be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2005.
     In October 2005, Hurricane Wilma struck southern Florida and our six hotels in the area were affected to varying degrees. We have not yet been able to determine the full extent of damage to our hotels or estimate our ultimate cost from this hurricane. However, five of the six hotels are at least partially open for business and we expect the sixth hotel to reopen by mid-November 2005. We anticipate recording an expense in fourth quarter to reflect our best estimate of the costs related to this hurricane, which we expect to be less than $5 million, representing our aggregate insurance deductible for the six hotels.
     Our board of directors has declared a fourth quarter common dividend of $0.15 per common share payable on December 1, 2005, to our common stockholders of record on November 15, 2005. Future dividends will be determined by our board of directors, based primarily upon our expected annual cash flow from operations in excess of approximately five percent of total revenues, for maintenance capital.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
     In the third quarter of 2005, revenue per available room, or RevPAR, increased 10.8% for our consolidated hotels in continuing operations and our average daily room rate, or ADR, comprised 55% of the increase in RevPAR. However, included in the third quarter results from operations is the impact of Hurricane Katrina. The net impact aggregates to approximately $2.6 million, including a $2.3 million charge for hurricane losses, representing our current best estimate of uninsured losses; estimates of our lost hotel operating profit of $1.0 million from our two owned hotels and one joint venture hotel in New Orleans, which were temporarily closed following the hurricane; and partially offset by the positive impact of approximately $0.7 million, from hotels in Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and Georgia, which benefited from the hurricane evacuees and relief workers.
     During 2005, through October 31, we have sold seven hotels for gross proceeds of $58 million, surrendered eight hotels in exchange for the extinguishment of $49 million of debt and have one hotel under a firm sale contract for $7 million, which is expected to close in November 2005.
     After disposing of the previously mentioned hotels, we will have 11 hotels remaining that we are currently marketing for sale. We estimate that the gross proceeds from the disposition of these hotels will be approximately $96 million.
     We continue to invest in our core hotels to maintain their competitive position and to take advantage of the current phase of the lodging cycle. During the first nine months of 2005, we spent $86 million on capital improvements and replacements (including our pro rata share of capital for unconsolidated ventures), and anticipate capital expenditures of at least $100 million for the full year.
     We continue to review and evaluate our hotel portfolio on an ongoing basis and may identify additional non-strategic hotels for sale based upon various factors. If we decide to sell additional hotels or if our estimates of market value for the hotels currently designated as non-strategic decline, we could incur future impairment charges.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 and 2004
     For the three months ended September 30, 2005, we recorded net income applicable to common stockholders of $0.1 million, or less than $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $46.3 million, or $0.78 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2004.
     Total revenue increased 8.8% to $314.7 million, compared to the prior year quarter. Hotel operating revenues from continuing operations made up more than 99% of the total revenues for both the third quarters of 2005 and 2004. Hotel operating revenues from continuing operations were $313.0 million for the third quarter 2005, an increase of $25.9 million, or 9.0%, compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in revenues was primarily related to a 10.8% increase in our hotel portfolio’s RevPAR, compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in RevPAR was driven by increases in ADR of 5.9% and in occupancy of 4.6%. The increase in ADR amounted to 55% of the improvement in RevPAR, as the trend of improving rates, that began in 2004, continued into the third quarter 2005. Increased ADR typically improves hotel operating margins because the hotels are receiving higher revenues for each guest served. Our hotel operating margins improved 48 basis points to prior year third quarter. The increase in our operating margins for the quarter were adversely affected by $1.6 million of bad debt charge-offs related to the bankruptcy filings of Delta® Air Lines and Northwest® Airlines. Also contributing to the sluggish margin growth were the effects of Hurricane Katrina.

Table of Contents

     Operating expenses for the quarter increased by $22.1 million or 8.4%, compared to the prior year quarter. Operating income for the third quarter of 2005 increased by $3.2 million or 11.8% over the prior year period. The improvement in operating income was driven largely by increased revenue and improvements in operating margins, which resulted principally from increased ADR. The increase in operating expenses came principally from increases in hotel departmental expenses of $5.3 million; other property operating expenses of $9.7 million; taxes, insurance and lease expense of $3.4 million; and depreciation expense of $1.9 million. With the exception of other property related costs, which increased slightly as a percentage of total revenue, all of these expenses remained constant to the prior year as a percent of total revenue or decreased. The increase in hotel departmental expenses resulted largely from increases in occupancy, with the majority of the increase in labor related costs. The increase in other property operating expenses resulted from increased hotel occupancy, with increases in labor costs, utilities, maintenance, marketing expenses and the increased charge-off of $1.6 million related to airline bankruptcies. Management and franchise fees increased as a function of the increase in revenue. Taxes, insurance and lease expenses increased principally due to increased lease expense, which is a function of revenue, and increased property taxes, largely due to reductions recorded in the prior year related to two hotels. Depreciation expense increased as a result of the depreciation related to our 2004 capital expenditures of $96 million.
     Net interest expense included in continuing operations decreased $1.1 million, or 3.3%, compared to the third quarter in 2004. This reduction is principally related to a $110 million reduction in our average outstanding debt, largely resulting from the early retirement of a portion of our senior notes in 2004 and higher interest rates on invested cash, partially offset by higher average interest rates on our debt.
     At September 30, 2005, we had 128 hotels included in our consolidated continuing operations, of which 11 were non-strategic hotels identified for sale. The 11 non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations represented 8.5% of the rooms in our hotel portfolio, but only 3.4% of our calendar year 2004 consolidated hotel operating profit.
     We recorded an impairment charge of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2005, related to one of our non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations. In October 2005, we accepted a contract for sale of this hotel and reduced its carrying value to the contract purchase amount. In the third quarter of 2005, we recorded $2.3 million in charges, representing our best estimate of uninsured losses from Hurricane Katrina, compared to $2.1 million for hurricane losses recorded in the third quarter of 2004. In the third quarter of 2004, we had $12.9 million of expenses related to the early extinguishment of senior debt.
     Equity in income from unconsolidated entities decreased by 72.9% to $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2005, compared to the same period last year. The decrease is attributed to the $11 million gain recorded in the third quarter 2004 by an unconsolidated entity from the development and sale of the Margate condominium project in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, partially offset by the increased RevPAR for our unconsolidated hotels and an improvement in their operating margins in 2005.
     Loss from continuing operations was $1.1 million for the third quarter 2005, compared to a loss of $8.8 million in the same period in 2004.
     Discontinued operations for the quarter represent the operating income, direct interest costs, gain on early extinguishment of debt, and gains or losses on sale of 15 hotels disposed of during the first nine months of 2005, one hotel that was designated as held for sale at September 30, 2005, and 18 hotels disposed of in 2004 and impairment losses of $33 million in 2004.
     Net income for the third quarter 2005 was $11.3 million, compared to a net loss in the same period of 2004 of $37.0 million.
     In accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-42, “The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock,” we have subtracted $1.3 million of the issuance costs of our Series B preferred stock, which was redeemed in the quarter from net income to determine net loss applicable to common stockholders for the calculation of net loss per share.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 and 2004
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we recorded a loss applicable to common stockholders of $22.7 million, or $0.38 per share, compared to a loss of $114.4 million, or $1.94 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.
     Total revenue increased 7.5% to $924.9 million, compared to the prior year period. Hotel operating revenues from continuing operations made up more than 99% of the total revenues for both the nine months ended September 2005 and 2004 and were $923.0 million for the nine month period ending September 30, 2005, reflecting an increase of $65.5 million, or 7.6%, compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in revenues was primarily related to a 9% increase in our hotel portfolio’s RevPAR, compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in RevPAR was driven by increases in ADR of 5.9% and occupancy of 2.9%. The increase in ADR amounted to 66% of the improvement in RevPAR, as the trend of improving rates, that began in 2004, continued through the third quarter 2005 and contributed to a 92 basis point improvement in hotel operating margins (hotel operating profit as a percentage of hotel revenue).
     Operating expenses for the nine months increased by $51.8 million or 6.7%, compared to the prior year period. Operating income for the nine month period in 2005 increased by $13.0 million, or 16.0%, over the prior year period. The improvement in operating income was driven largely by increased revenue and improvements in operating margins, which resulted principally from increased ADR. The increase in operating expenses came principally from increases in hotel departmental expenses of $12.6 million; other property operating expenses of $21.3 million; taxes, insurance and lease expense of $7.4 million; and depreciation expense of $5.6 million. With the exception of hotel departmental expenses, which decreased as a percentage of total revenue, all of these expenses remained constant to the prior year as a percent of total revenue. The increase in hotel departmental expenses resulted largely from increases in occupancy, with the majority of the increase in labor related costs. The increase in other property operating expenses resulted from increased hotel occupancy, with increases in labor costs, utilities, maintenance, and marketing expenses. Taxes, insurance and lease expense increased principally due to increased lease expense, which is a function of revenue. Depreciation expense increased as a result of the increased depreciation related to our 2004 capital expenditures of $96 million.
     Net interest expense included in continuing operations decreased $14.1 million, or 12.5%, compared to the same period in 2004. This reduction is principally related to a $210 million reduction in our average outstanding debt, largely resulting from the early retirement of a portion of our senior notes in 2004, partially offset by an increase in our average interest rate.
     At September 30, 2005, we had 128 hotels included in our consolidated continuing operations, of which 11 were non-strategic hotels identified for sale. The 11 non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations represented 8.5% of the rooms in our hotel portfolio, but only 3.4% of our calendar year 2004 consolidated hotel operating profit.
     We recorded an impairment charge of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2005, related to one of our non-strategic hotels included in continuing operations. In October 2005, we accepted a contract for sale of this hotel and reduced its carrying value to the contract purchase amount. In the third quarter 2005, we recorded $2.3 million in charges representing our best estimates of uninsured losses from Hurricane Katrina and $2.1 million for hurricane losses in the third quarter of 2004. In the same nine month period of 2004, we recorded $44.3 million in charges related to the early retirement of a portion of our senior notes and cancellation of our line of credit.
     Equity in income from unconsolidated entities decreased by 47.6% to $8.2 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2005, compared to the same period last year. The decrease is attributed to the $11 million gain recorded in the third quarter 2004, by an unconsolidated entity related to the development and sale of the Margate condominium project in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, partially offset by the increased RevPAR for our unconsolidated hotels and an improvement in their operating margins in 2005.

     Minority interest declined by $1.3 million, principally because of smaller losses being allocated to FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership as a result of the improved operations in the nine month period, compared to the same period in 2004.
     Income from continuing operations was $3.4 million for the nine month period of 2005, compared to a loss of $58.1 million in the same period in 2004.
     Discontinued operations for the period represent the operating income, direct interest costs, impairment losses and gains or losses on sale of 15 hotels disposed of during the first nine months of 2005, one hotel that was designated as held for sale at September 30, 2005, and 18 hotels disposed of in 2004.
     Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, was $13.6 million, compared to a net loss in the same period of 2004 of $89.4 million.
     Preferred dividends increased by $4.7 million. This results from a full nine months of preferred dividends on the Series A preferred stock issued in April 2004, partially offset by savings from the issuance of 5.4 million depositary shares representing Series C preferred stock and the redemption of a corresponding number of shares of Series B preferred stock during the second quarter 2005.
     In accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-42, “The Effect on the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock,” we have subtracted $6.5 million of the issuance costs of our Series B preferred stock, which were redeemed in the period, from net income to determine net loss applicable to common stockholders for the calculation of net loss per share.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
     We refer in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q to certain “non-GAAP financial measures.” These measures, including FFO, EBITDA, hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin, are measures of our financial performance that are not calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The following tables reconcile each of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Immediately following the reconciliations, we include a discussion of why we believe these measures are useful supplemental measures of our performance and of the limitations upon such measures.
     The following tables detail our computation of FFO and EBITDA (in thousands):

     Substantially all of our non-current assets consist of real estate. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most industry investors consider supplemental measures of performance, which are not measures of operating performance under GAAP, to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. These supplemental measures, including FFO, EBITDA, hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin, are not measures of operating performance under GAAP. However, we consider these non-GAAP measures to be supplemental measures of a hotel REIT’s performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of our operating performance.
FFO and EBITDA
     The White Paper on Funds From Operations approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT,”) defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships

Table of Contents

and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. This may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
     EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries. We define EBITDA as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus interest expenses, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDA on the same basis.
Hotel Operating Profit and Operating Margin
     Hotel operating profit and operating margin are commonly used measures of performance in the hotel industry and give investors a more complete understanding of the operating results over which our individual hotels and operating managers have direct control. We believe that hotel operating profit and operating margin is useful to investors by providing greater transparency with respect to two significant measures used by us in our financial and operational decision-making. Additionally, these measures facilitate comparisons with other hotel REITs and hotel owners. We present hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin by eliminating corporate-level expenses, depreciation and expenses related to our capital structure. We eliminate corporate-level costs and expenses because we believe property-level results provide investors with supplemental information with respect to the ongoing operating performance of our hotels and the effectiveness of management in running our business on a property-level basis. We eliminate depreciation and amortization, even though they are property-level expenses, because we do not believe that these non-cash expenses, which are based on historical cost accounting for real estate assets and implicitly assume that the value of real estate assets diminish predictably over time, accurately reflect and adjustment in the value of our assets.
Use and Limitations of Non-GAAP Measures
     Our management and Board of Directors use FFO and EBITDA to evaluate the performance of our hotels and to facilitate comparisons between us and other lodging REITs, hotel owners who are not REITs and other capital intensive companies. We use hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin in evaluating hotel-level performance and the operating efficiency of our hotel managers.
     The use of these non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. FFO, EBITDA, hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin, as presented by us, may not be comparable to FFO, EBITDA, hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin as calculated by other real estate companies. These measures do not reflect certain expenses that we incurred and will incur, such as depreciation, interest and capital expenditures. Management compensates for these limitations by separately considering the impact of these excluded items to the extent they are material to operating decisions or assessments of our operating performance. Our reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures, and our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, include interest expense, capital expenditures, and other excluded items, all of which should be considered when evaluating our performance, as well as the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures.
     These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. They should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, cash flow from operations, or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. Neither should FFO, FFO per share or EBITDA be considered as measures of our liquidity or indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions or service our debt. FFO per share does not measure, and should not be used as a measure of, amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders. FFO, EBITDA, hotel operating profit and hotel operating margin reflect additional ways of viewing our operations that we believe, when viewed with our GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Management strongly encourages investors to review our financial information in its entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Our principal source of cash to meet our cash requirements, including distributions to stockholders and repayments of indebtedness, is from the results of operations of our hotels. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, net cash flow provided by operating activities, consisting primarily of hotel operations, was $117 million. At September 30, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $171 million. Included in cash and cash equivalents was approximately $37 million utilized to meet our hotel minimum working capital requirements.
     For 2005, our current operating plan contemplates common dividend payments of $9 million, preferred dividend payments of $39 million, capital expenditures of at least $100 million ($86 million has been spent through September 30, 2005), $21 million in normal recurring principal payments and proceeds of approximately $83 million from the sale of non-strategic hotels ($58 million was received through September, 2005).
     We are required to reinvest the proceeds from the further sale of IHG managed hotels in other hotels to be managed by IHG or pay substantial termination fees. As of September 30, 2005, we had an unsatisfied reinvestment obligation of $35 million from the sale of IHG managed hotels. If we do not fulfill this reinvestment obligation within 12 months of the date of sale, we will be required to pay liquidated damages to IHG aggregating $8 million. Additionally, until the earlier of either our satisfaction of the reinvestment requirement, or the payment of liquidated damages, we are required to pay monthly termination fees of $119,000 (based on the hotels we have sold through September 30, 2005), which payments will be offset against any liquidated damages payable with respect to these properties. In addition, seven of the 11 remaining hotels previously identified for sale are managed by IHG and subject to the reinvestment obligation in the event they are sold. We will incur additional reinvestment obligations of approximately $40 million if these hotels are sold at currently estimated prices or, if the proceeds of sale are not so reinvested, we will incur approximately $13 million in additional liquidated damages and termination fees for which we would be liable to IHG. We continue to explore our alternatives to resolve the liquidated damage liability to IHG.
     At September 30, 2005, approximately 25% of our outstanding debt had variable interest rates based on LIBOR. Variable interest rates have recently been increasing and, based on our debt outstanding at September 30, 2005, a one percent change in LIBOR would impact our annual interest expense by $4.3 million.
     In April 2005, we completed the issuance of 5.4 million depositary shares representing our 8% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, realizing gross proceeds of $135 million and in September 2005 we completed the issuance of an additional 1.4 million depositary shares representing our Series C preferred stock, realizing gross proceeds of $34.4 million. The aggregate gross proceeds of these issuances were used to redeem all of our 9% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock.
     At September 30, 2005, we had aggregate mortgage indebtedness of approximately $1.0 billion that was secured by 71 of our consolidated hotels with an aggregate book value of approximately $1.7 billion. Substantially all of this debt is recourse solely to the specific assets securing the debt, except in the case of fraud, misapplication of funds and other customary recourse carve-out provisions. Loans secured by 33 hotels provide for lock-box arrangements. With respect to loans secured by 15 of these hotels, if the debt service coverage ratios fall below certain levels and certain other conditions are met, the lender is entitled to apply the revenues from the hotels securing the loan to satisfy current requirements for debt service, taxes, insurance and other reserves, and to hold the balance of the revenues, if any, until debt service coverage ratios again reach specified levels.
     With respect to loans secured by the remaining 18 hotels, the owner is permitted to retain 115% of budgeted hotel operating expenses before the remaining revenues would become subject to a lock-box arrangement if a specified debt service coverage ratio was not met. The lender is entitled to apply the remaining revenues to satisfy current requirements for debt service, taxes, insurance and other reserves, with any excess cash returned to the owner. The mortgage loans secured by 16 of these 18 hotels also provide that, so long as the debt service coverage ratios remain below a second, even lower minimum level, the lender may retain any excess cash (after

deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, tax, insurance and other reserve requirements) and, if the debt service coverage ratio remains below this lower minimum level for 12 consecutive months, apply any accumulated excess cash to the prepayment of the principal amount of the debt. If the debt service coverage ratio exceeds the lower minimum level for three consecutive months, any then accumulated excess cash will be returned to the owner. Ten of these 18 hotels, which accounted for 6% of our total revenues in 2004, fell below the applicable debt service coverage ratio in 2004 and are currently subject to the lock-box provisions. None of the hotels are currently below the second, even lower minimum debt service coverage ratio that would permit the lender to retain excess cash after deduction for the 115% of budgeted operating expenses, debt service, taxes, insurance and other reserve requirements.
     Through September 30, 2005, we made draws of $6.0 million on our $69.8 million recourse construction loan for the development of a 184-unit condominium project in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The interest on this facility is based on LIBOR plus 225 basis points and will be capitalized as part of the cost of the project. The interest rate may be reduced to LIBOR plus 200 basis points when the project is 55% complete and upon the satisfaction of certain other requirements. The facility matures in the fourth quarter of 2007 .
     If actual operating results fail to meet our current expectations or if interest rates increase more than currently expected, we might be unable to continue to satisfy the incurrence test under the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes. In such an event, we would be prohibited from, among other things, incurring any additional indebtedness or paying dividends on our preferred or common stock, except to the extent necessary to satisfy the REIT qualification requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our taxable income. In the event of our failure of this incurrence test we may be unable to distribute the full amount of dividends accruing under our outstanding preferred stock and, accordingly, could be restricted in paying dividends on our common stock. However, based on current operating trends and our current estimates of future performance, we consider the failure of this incurrence test to be unlikely in the foreseeable future.
     The fundamental operating assumptions upon which our previously announced fourth quarter and full year 2005 guidance were based have not changed, but the impact that hurricane Wilma may have on the remainder of the year is not yet known. Accordingly, we are not adjusting our prior guidance until the impact of hurricane Wilma becomes more clear. When that information becomes available, if necessary, we will publish an update to our prior guidance.
     In the third quarter of 2005, we expensed $1.6 million representing our aggregate receivables from Delta® Air Lines and Northwest® Airlines, both of which filed for bankruptcy protection in the quarter.
     Our board of directors has declared a fourth quarter common dividend of $0.15 per common share payable on December 1, 2005, to our common stockholders of record on November 15, 2005. Future dividends will be determined by our board of directors, based primarily upon our expected annual cash flow from operations in excess of approximately five percent of total revenues, for maintenance capital.
     FFO and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures, as previously discussed under the caption “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and reference is made to that discussion.
Inflation
     Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. Competitive pressures may, however, require us to reduce room rates in the near term and may limit our ability to raise room rates in the future. We are also subject to the risk that inflation will cause increases in hotel operating expenses disproportionately to revenues.

Seasonality
     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. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, due to temporary or seasonal fluctuations in revenues, we may utilize cash on hand or borrowings to satisfy our obligations or make distributions to our equity holders.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks”, or other variations of these terms (including their use in the negative), or by discussions of strategies, plans or intentions. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. Among these factors are:
    general economic and lodging industry conditions, including the anticipated continuation of the current recovery in the economy, the realization of anticipated job growth, the impact of the United States’ military involvement in the Middle East and elsewhere, future acts of terrorism, the threat or outbreak of a pandemic disease affecting the travel industry, the impact on the travel industry of high fuel costs and increased security precautions, and the impact that the bankruptcy of additional major air carriers may have on our revenues and receivables;
 
    our overall debt levels and our 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 being marketed for sale at anticipated prices; and
 
    competitive conditions in the lodging industry.
     In addition, these 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 these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included in this report, and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the risk factors and cautionary statements discussed in our filings under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     At September 30, 2005, approximately 75% of our consolidated debt had fixed interest rates, after considering interest rate swaps. Currently, market rates of interest are below the rates we are obligated to pay on our fixed-rate debt.
     The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations. For debt obligations, the table presents scheduled maturities and weighted average interest rates, by maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents the notional amount and weighted average interest rate, by contractual maturity date. The fair value of our fixed rate debt indicates the estimated principal amount of debt having the same debt service requirements that could have been borrowed at the date presented, at then current market interest rates. The fair value of our interest rate swaps indicates the estimated amount that would have been received or paid by us had the swaps been terminated at the date presented.

     Swap contracts, such as described above, contain a credit risk, in that the counterparties may be unable to fulfill the terms of the agreement. We minimize that risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of our counterparties, who are limited to major banks and financial institutions, and we do not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Standard & Poor’s credit ratings for each of the financial institutions that are counterparties to our interest rate swap agreements are AA- or better.

Making the Term Advances. (a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or not later than 1:00 P.M.

(New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in same day funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Term Commitments of such Lender and the other Lenders. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower by crediting the applicable Borrower Account. (b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrowers may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for the initial Borrowing hereunder or for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $1,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.06(d)(ii), 2.08 or 2.9 and (ii) there may not be more than 5 separate Borrowings outstanding at any time. 25 (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to (x) the date of any Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances or (y) 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date of any Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of any Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.06 to Term Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Term Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes. (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Term Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Term Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Term Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. SECTION 2.03. Repayment of Term Advances.

(b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend and other commitments of such type (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender's commitment to lend. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrowers by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Term Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Term Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no 30 longer exist; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. SECTION 2.10. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.12), not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the Notes to more than one Lender, to such Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lenders and (ii) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender, to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. (b) Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender and each of such Lender's Affiliates, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under the Notes held by such Lender, to charge from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any or all of such Borrower's accounts with such Lender any amount so due. (c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. (d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 31 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrowers shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. (f) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Agents and the Lenders in the following order of priority: (i) first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Agents (solely in their respective capacities as Agents) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Agents on such date; (ii) second, to the payment of all of the indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Lenders under Section 9.04 and any similar section of any of the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Lenders on such date; (iii) third, to the payment of all of the amounts that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Sections 2.09 and 2.11 on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts thereof owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date; (iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations of the Borrower under or in respect of the Loan Documents that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Section 2.06(b) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date; (v) fifth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Advances that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Section 2.06(a) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date; (vi) sixth, to the payment of the principal amount of all of the outstanding Term Advances that are due and payable to the Lenders on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such principal the Lenders on such date; and 32 (vii) seventh, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date. SECTION 2.11. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.10 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and each Agent, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income by the United States and taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction of such Lender's Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as "TAXES"). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender or any Agent, and unless such requirement arises from the failure of a Lender to furnish the documentation described in Section 2.11(e), (i) the sum payable by the such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and any Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11) such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as "OTHER TAXES"). (c) The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Lender and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.11, imposed on or paid by such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. (d) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such receipt is issued therefor, or other evidence of payment thereof reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch 33 outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.11, the terms "UNITED STATES" and "UNITED STATES PERSON" shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of the Initial Lender, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long thereafter as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W8-BEN or W-8EC1, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the forms provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.11 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form W8-BEN or W8-EC1, that the applicable Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. Upon the request of the Borrowers, any Lender that is a United States person and is not an exempt recipient for U.S. backup withholding purposes shall deliver to the Borrowers two copies of Internal Revenue Service form W-9 (or any successor form). (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.11 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes. (g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and 34 regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. (h) In the event that an additional payment is made under Section 2.11(a) or (c) for the account of any Lender and such Lender, in its sole discretion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a credit against or release or remission for, or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such payment, such Lender shall, to the extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the applicable Loan Party such amount as such Lender shall, in its sole discretion, have determined to be attributable to such deduction or withholding and which will leave such Lender (after such payment) in no worse position that it would have been in if the applicable Loan Party had not been required to make such deduction or withholding. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender to claim any tax credit or to disclose any information relating to its affairs or any computations in respect thereof, and no Loan Party shall be entitled to review the tax records of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or require any Lender to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. SECTION 2.12. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 9.07) (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each other Lender shall be rescinded and such other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lenders) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case 35 may be, as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be. SECTION 2.13. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Term Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely (a) to refinance certain Existing Debt and Surviving Debt secured by mortgage Liens encumbering the Mortgage Assets plus the amount of any applicable premiums and expenses, and (b) to pay fees, costs and expenses related to the Term Facility, the TRS Recapitalization Transactions and the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. SECTION 2.14. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Term Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. Each Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Term Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Term Commitment of such Lender. All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder. (b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Term Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers hereunder and each Lender's share thereof. (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. SECTION 2.15. Extension of Maturity Date. At least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request, with respect to the Term Advances then outstanding, a single one-year extension of the Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request and the Maturity Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the Maturity Date (the "EXTENSION DATE"), be extended for an additional one year period, provided that on the Maturity Date the following statements shall be true and the Administrative Agent shall have received for 36 the account of each Lender a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers, dated the Extension Date, stating that: (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are true and correct on and as of the Extension Date, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result for such extension. In the event that extension is effected pursuant to this Section 2.15 (but subject to the provisions of Sections 2.04, 2.05 and 6.01), (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term Advances shall be repaid in full ratably to the Lenders on the Maturity Date as so extended, and (y) a corresponding adjustment shall be made to the table of scheduled principal amortization payments set forth in Section 2.03 to reflect such extension, as determined by the Administrative Agent. As of the Extension Date, any and all references to this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other Loan Documents to the "Maturity Date" shall refer to the Maturity Date as so extended. ARTICLE III CONDITIONS OF LENDING SECTION 3.01. Conditions Precedent to Initial Borrowing. The obligation of each Lender to make a Term Advance in respect of the initial Borrowing on the Closing Date is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on or before such date: (a) The Administrative Agent shall have received on or before the Closing Date the following, each dated such day (unless otherwise specified), in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (unless otherwise specified) and (except for the Notes) in sufficient copies for each Lender: (i) A Note executed by the Initial Borrower payable to the order of each Lender.

Any ERISA Event shall have occurred with respect to a Plan and the sum (determined as of the date of occurrence of such ERISA Event) of the Insufficiency of such Plan and the Insufficiency of any and all other Plans with respect to which an ERISA Event shall have occurred and then exist (or the liability of the Loan Parties and the ERISA Affiliates related to such ERISA Event) exceeds $5,000,000; then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent (i) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the Term Commitments of each Lender and the obligation of each Lender to make Term Advances to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) shall at the request, or may with the 62 consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the Notes, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Notes, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under any Bankruptcy Law, (y) the Term Commitment of each Lender and the obligation of each Lender to make Term Advances shall automatically be terminated and (z) the Notes, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower. ARTICLE VII GUARANTY SECTION 7.01. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing Obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being the "GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS"), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in enforcing any rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Secured Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not merely of collection. (b) Each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty, each other Secured Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and, by their acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty, the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Secured Party under this Guaranty or any other guaranty, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Secured Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents. 63 SECTION 7.02. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto. The Obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrowers (or any of them) or any other Loan Party or whether the Borrowers (or any of them) or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Borrowers (or any of them), any other Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries or otherwise; (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents or any other assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries; (f) any failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party to disclose such information); (g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Guaranty Supplement, any Accession Agreement or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or 64 (h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrowers (or any of them) or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. SECTION 7.03. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any collateral. (b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right (including without limitation any such right arising under California Civil Code Section 2815) to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future. (c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any and all rights and defenses available to it by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code, including without limitation any and all rights or defenses such Guarantor may have by reason of protection afforded to the principal with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations with respect to any of such guarantor's obligations under its guaranty, in either case pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California limiting or discharging the principal's indebtedness or such guarantor's obligations, including without limitation Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, (ii) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Loan Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any collateral and (iii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. No other provision of the Guaranty shall be construed as limiting the generality of any of the covenants and waivers set forth in this paragraph. As provided below, this Guaranty shall be governed by, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. This paragraph is included solely out of an abundance of caution, and shall not be construed to mean that any of the above-referenced provisions of California law are in any way applicable to this Guaranty or to any of the Guaranteed Obligations. (d) Each Guarantor waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Loan Party or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute (including without limitation under California Civil Code Section 2847, 2848 or 2849), under 65 common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any such Loan Party, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against any Loan Party, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party. (e) Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may, without notice to or demand upon such Guarantor and without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, foreclose under any mortgage by nonjudicial sale, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the recovery by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties against such Guarantor of any deficiency after such nonjudicial sale and any defense or benefits that may be afforded by applicable law (including, without limitation, Sections 580a and 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any other law of any other jurisdiction having similar effect). (f) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by the Administrative Agent or such other Secured Party. (g) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 7.02 and this Section 7.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. SECTION 7.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrowers (or any of them), any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor's Obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against the Borrowers (or any of them), any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrowers (or any of them), any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated and the Term Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (b) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Secured Hedge Agreements, and (c) the Maturity Date, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to any Secured Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the 66 Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated, and (iv) the Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties will, at such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty. SECTION 7.05. Guaranty Supplements and Accession Agreements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a Guaranty Supplement or an Accession Agreement, (a) such Person shall be referred to as an "ADDITIONAL GUARANTOR" and shall become and be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement to a "Guarantor" or a "Loan Party" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a "Guarantor" shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and (b) each reference herein to "this Agreement", "this Guaranty", "hereunder", "hereof" or words of like import referring to this Agreement and this Guaranty, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the "Loan Agreement", "Guaranty", "thereunder", "thereof" or words of like import referring to this Agreement and this Guaranty, shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement and this Guaranty as supplemented by such Guaranty Supplement or Accession Agreement. SECTION 7.06. Indemnification by Guarantors. (a) Without limitation on any other Obligations of any Guarantor or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties under this Agreement, this Guaranty or the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each other Secured Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of any Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms. (b) Each Guarantor hereby also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any of the Guarantors or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, and each Guarantor hereby agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Term Facility, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term Advances, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. SECTION 7.07. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the "SUBORDINATED OBLIGATIONS") to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 7.07. (a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of a Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor may receive regularly scheduled payments or payments made in the ordinary course of business from any other Loan Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the 67 continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), however, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations. (b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding ("POST PETITION INTEREST")) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations. (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Secured Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. (d) Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post Petition Interest). SECTION 7.08. Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (ii) the Maturity Date and (iii) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Secured Hedge Agreements, (b) be binding upon the Guarantors, their successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their successors, transferees and assigns. SECTION 7.09. Recourse Nature of Guaranty; FLLP Cap Date. The Guaranteed Obligations shall be full recourse obligations of FLLP; provided, however, that notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, from and after the FLLP Cap Date, the aggregate liability of FLLP in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Losses comprising Recourse Carve-Out Liabilities (the "FLLP CAP"). The FLLP Cap shall be reduced only by the final payments in such amount made by the Borrowers in respect of their Obligations under the Loan Documents. The Guaranteed Obligations shall at all times be full recourse obligations of each Guarantor other than FLLP. 68 ARTICLE VIII THE AGENTS SECTION 8.01. Authorization and Action; Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents. (a) Each Lender (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential Hedge Banks) hereby appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. Each Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Person identified as a syndication agent, documentation agent, senior manager, sole lead arranger or sole book running manager, in such Person's capacity as such, shall have any obligations or duties to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under any of such Loan Documents. (b) Anything contained herein or in the Collateral Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent may from time to time, when the Collateral Agent deems it to be necessary, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents or collateral subagents (each, a "SUPPLEMENTAL COLLATERAL AGENT") with respect to all or any part of the Collateral. In the event that the Collateral Agent so appoints any Supplemental Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall automatically be vested, in addition to the Collateral Agent, with all rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents with respect to such Collateral; (ii) such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be an "Agent" for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 hereof that refer to the Agents (or either of them) shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, and all references therein and in the other Loan Documents to the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Collateral Agent and/or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, as the context may require; and (iii) the term "Collateral Agent", when used herein or in any applicable Collateral Document in relation to the Liens on or security interests in such Collateral granted in favor of the Collateral Agent, and any rights, powers, privileges, interests and remedies of the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral, shall be deemed to include such Supplemental Collateral Agent; provided, however, that no such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any such Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Collateral Agent. Should any instrument in writing from any Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Collateral Agent to more fully or certainly vest in and confirming to such Supplemental Collateral Agent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the applicable Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent. If any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and be exercised by the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent. 69 SECTION 8.02. Agents' Reliance, Etc. Neither any Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (a) in the case of the Administrative Agent, may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by the Lender that is the payee of such Note, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, or, in the case of any other Agent, such Agent has received notice from the Administrative Agent that it has received and accepted such Assignment and Acceptance, as provided in Section 9.07; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of any Default under the Loan Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or telex or other electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. SECTION 8.03. CNAI and Affiliates. With respect to its Term Commitment, the Term Advances made by it and the Notes issued to it, CNAI shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include CNAI in its individual capacity. CNAI and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if CNAI were not the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. SECTION 8.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. SECTION 8.05. Indemnification by Lenders. (a) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrowers) from and against such Lender's ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or 70 disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED COSTS"); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from any Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrowers under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrowers. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. (b) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the Lenders' respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to their respective Term Commitments at such time. The failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender's ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. SECTION 8.06. Successor Agents. Any Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days' prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that any removal of the Administrative Agent will not be effective until it has been replaced as Collateral Agent and released from all obligations in respect thereof. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent (which successor Agent shall, provided no Event of Default shall then have occurred and by continuing, be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders' removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent (which successor Agent shall, provided no Event of Default shall then have occurred and by continuing, be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers), which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, and, in the case of a successor Collateral Agent, upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages and Assignments of Leases, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Agent's resignation or removal under this Section 8.06 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Agent's resignation or removal shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Agent shall 71 thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

(b) Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Term Facility, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term Advances, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are consummated. Each Loan Party also agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Term Advances, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. 74 (c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Term Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.08(b)(i) or 2.09(d), acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if the Borrowers fail to make any payment or prepayment of a Term Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.05 or 6.01 or otherwise, the Borrowers shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Term Advance. (d) If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by any Agent or any Lender, in its sole discretion. (e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties contained in Sections 2.09 and 2.11, Sections 7.06 and 7.09 and this Section 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents. SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Agent and each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note or Notes and although such obligations may be unmatured. If such deposits are not pledged pursuant to a valid security agreement, the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent shall be obtained before any right of set-off shall be exercised. Each Agent and each Lender agrees promptly to notify such Borrower or such Loan Party after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Agent and each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Lender and their respective Affiliates may have. SECTION 9.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Initial Borrower and each Guarantor named on the signature pages hereto and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by the Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Borrower and Guarantor named on the signature pages hereto and each Agent and each Lender 75 and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

(b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender, hereunder and (ii) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.09, 2.11, 7.06, 7.09, 8.05, and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of 76 the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Term Commitment of, and principal amount of the Term Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time (the "REGISTER"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after their receipt of such notice, each Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if requested by the applicable Lender, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes a substitute Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Term Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender has retained a Term Commitment hereunder, a substitute Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Term Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such substitute Note or Notes, if any, shall be in an aggregate principal amount up to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto. (f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Term Commitment, the Term Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Term Commitment) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any 77 consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release all or substantially all of the Collateral and (vi) if, at the time of such sale, such Lender was entitled to payments under Section 2.11(a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such participant on such date, provided that such participant complies with the requirements of Section 2.11(e) as if it were a Lender hereunder. (g) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Loan Parties (or any of them) furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of any Loan Party; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender. (h) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Term Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. (i) Upon notice to the Borrowers from the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Lender's Note, the Borrowers will execute and deliver, in lieu of such original Note, a replacement promissory note, identical in form and substance to, and dated as of the same date as, the Note so lost, stolen or mutilated, subject to delivery by such Lender to the Borrowers of an affidavit of lost note and indemnity in customary form. Upon the execution and delivery of the replacement Note, all references herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the lost, stolen or mutilated Note shall be deemed references to the replacement Note. SECTION 9.08. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

SECTION 9.10. Release of Collateral. (a) Upon the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Loan Party (including, without limitation, (i) as a result of the sale of the Equity Interests in the Loan Party that owns such Collateral, and (ii) any Transfer pursuant to Section 5.02(e)) that is permitted in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, then, in either such event, the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrowers' expense, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Document in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. (b) Upon the latest to occur of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, (ii) the termination or expiration of all Secured Hedge Agreements, and (iii) the Maturity Date, the Liens granted by the Collateral Documents shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Loan Party. Upon any such termination, the Collateral Agent will, at the Borrowers' expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Parties such documents as such Loan Parties shall reasonably request to evidence such termination. SECTION 9.11. Patriot Act Notification. Each Lender and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the "PATRIOT ACT"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Loan Parties shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Agents or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. SECTION 9.12. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction. (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent 79 permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
