3.1.2 ADDITIONAL RENT.

(a) AMOUNT. Tenant shall pay additional rent (“ADDITIONAL RENT”) with respect to the Property with respect to each Lease Year beginning with the 2007 Lease Year, in an amount, not less than zero, equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of Excess Total Hotel Sales for such Property.

(b) FISCAL MONTH INSTALLMENTS. Installments of Additional Rent for each Lease Year or portion thereof

shall be calculated and paid with respect to each Fiscal Month in arrears on the twenty-fifth day of the succeeding Fiscal Month, based on Total Hotel Sales for the year-to-date as of the last day of the preceding month and the Total Hotel Sales for the year-to-date for the corresponding period during the Base Year. On or before the twenty-fifth (25th) day after the end of each Fiscal Month, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with detailed operating statements setting forth the results of operations at the Hotel with respect to such month and year-to-date showing Total Hotel Sales, rooms revenues, revenue per available room, occupancy percentage and average daily rate, Operating Costs, deposits to, and expenditures from, the FF&E Reserve and Additional Rent together with a Financial Officer’s Certificate. Such statements may be provided electronically to Landlord.

(c) YEAR END STATEMENTS. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which Landlord or any of its Affiliates are required to file audited financial statements with the SEC (but in all events on or before February 15 of each year), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a Financial Officer’s Certificate setting forth for the prior Lease Year Total Hotel Sales, Operating Costs, the calculation of Additional Rent and deposits to, and expenditures from, the FF&E Reserve together with an Agreed Upon Procedure Letter with respect thereto. The cost of obtaining such letter shall be an Operating Cost.

(d) RECONCILIATION. If any amounts due to Landlord as shown in a Financial Officer’s Certificate or audit provided pursuant to SECTIONS 3.1.2 (f) or 5.3 exceed the amounts previously paid with respect thereto to Landlord, Tenant shall pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the Financial Officer’s Certificate or audit is delivered, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date due. (Any such interest which accrues after the day that is ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such Financial Officer’s Certificate is delivered or is due and any such interest which results from Tenant’s willful understatement of amounts due to Landlord shall not be Operating Costs.) If Additional Rent due as shown in a Financial Officer’s Certificate or audit is less than the amount previously paid with respect thereto to Landlord, Landlord shall be entitled to retain the same but Tenant shall be credited such overpayment against the next installment of Additional Rent. In no event shall (i) any

amount previously deposited in the FF&E Reserve be withdrawn therefrom or (ii) the amount of Minimum Rent be subject to adjustment pursuant to this SECTION 3.1.2 (d).

(e) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

Any dispute concerning the correctness of an audit shall be settled by Arbitration. Tenant shall pay the cost of any audit revealing an understatement of Additional Rent by more than three percent (3%) in the aggregate, and such cost shall not be an Operating Cost. In the event that either no notice of audit is given within said twelve (12) months, or no audit is in fact commenced within eighteen (18) months after receipt of such year-end Financial Officer’s Certificate, such operating statement will constitute the final statement for that Fiscal Year, deemed to have been approved by Landlord.

(g) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Landlord pursuant to SECTION 12.1, then all of Tenant’s Personal Property shall immediately and automatically be transferred to Landlord and become, without the requirement of any action or undertaking by any party, Landlord’s sole property and shall remain upon the Property and/or the Hotel and be surrendered with the Property and/or the Hotel without disturbance, molestation or injury.

(h) SURVIVAL. The terms of this SECTION 3.1.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

3.1.3 ADDITIONAL CHARGES. In addition to the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the appropriate parties and discharge as and when due and payable the following (collectively, “ADDITIONAL CHARGES”):

(a) IMPOSITIONS. Subject to ARTICLE 8 relating to permitted contests, all Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing authorities (or other payees) where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request, furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Where Tenant’s direct payment of Impositions (and the filings therefor) are not feasible, Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant to effect the payment of such Impositions (and make the filings therefor), it being understood that the amount of any such Imposition remains Tenant’s responsibility and Landlord is only cooperating to assist in remitting such amount; Tenant, at its expense, shall to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any other Imposition as may be required. Landlord shall, at its expense and to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and duly and timely file all tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord’s Taxes (other than those with respect to Impositions) as may be required by Government Agencies, so as to avoid the imposition of any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take advantage of any discount for early payment). Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, notwithstanding any provision

of this agreement or any other agreement including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement, to the contrary, if any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. In the event Government Agencies classify the Property covered by this Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file all personal property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may legally so file. Each party shall, to the extent it possesses the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for the Property so classified as personal property. Where Landlord is legally required to file personal property tax returns for property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Tenant to file a protest. All Impositions assessed against such personal property shall be (irrespective of whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return) paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same may be made without interest or penalty, subject to the provisions of ARTICLE 8. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon the other’s request, consult with each other in order to avoid the imposition of withholding taxes upon either party, the Property or otherwise concerning the operation thereof.

Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of which Landlord at any time has knowledge; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Landlord’s failure to give any such notice shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions. To the extent Landlord is legally required to file a tax return for an Imposition and Tenant is not permitted under Applicable Law to make such filing, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of the return in sufficient time for Tenant to pay the Imposition; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Landlord’s failure to provide such copy shall in no way diminish Tenant’s obligation hereunder to pay such Impositions.

(b) UTILITY CHARGES. All charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and other utilities used in connection with the Property.

(d) OTHER CHARGES. All other amounts, liabilities and obligations, including, without limitation, all amounts payable under any equipment leases and all agreements to indemnify Landlord under SECTIONS 4.3.2 and 9.7.

(e) TAX EXEMPTION DECREE EXPENDITURES. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement including, without limitation, the Purchase Agreement, to the contrary, any amounts required to be expended or invested under any of the Tax Exemption Decree, the Puerto Rico Tourism Development Act of 1993 or the regulations thereunder on (i) promotion, publicity, marketing for the Hotel; (ii) compliance with adequate safety, health, sanitation and protection standards for guests at the Hotel; (iii) personnel training and retraining; (iv) handicapped facilities for the Hotel; (v) conservation, improvement and maintenance of the Hotel and of the environmental and aesthetic infrastructure; or (vi) any similar purposes or activity. If the Tax Exemption Decree, the Puerto Rico Tourism Development Act of 1993 or the regulations thereunder preclude Tenant from complying with the terms of the foregoing, then Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith an amendment to this Agreement to deal with such eventuality with the intent that SECTION 3.3 be given full effect and that all Rents and other amounts payable by Tenant hereunder qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code. Nothing contained in this SECTION 3.1.3 (e) is intended to, nor shall, limit Tenant’s rights under SECTIONS 5.1.2 OR 5.1.3.

3.1.4 REIMBURSEMENT FOR ADDITIONAL CHARGES. If Tenant pays or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or other Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement (other than termination by reason of an Event of Default), Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of such amounts. Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of this Agreement.

3.2 LATE PAYMENT OF RENT, ETC. If any installment of Minimum Rent shall not be paid within twenty-five (25) days

after its due date or if any Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord, on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Interest Rate on the amount of such installment, from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof.

In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional Charges when due, Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every fine, penalty, interest and cost which is added for non-payment or late payment of such items. Landlord shall have all legal, equitable and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and Additional Rent.

3.3 NET LEASE. The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide otherwise including any provisions for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.

3.4 NO TERMINATION, ABATEMENT, ETC. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each of Landlord and Tenant, to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action without the consent of the other to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement. In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement, deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be otherwise affected by reason of: (a) any damage to or destruction of the Property or any portion thereof from whatever cause or any Condemnation; (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction upon, Tenant’s use of the Property, or any portion thereof, or the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by reason of any default or breach of any warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting Landlord

or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement.

3.5 WAIVER. Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law (a) to modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender the Property or any portion thereof, or (b) which would entitle Tenant to any abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The obligations of Tenant hereunder shall be separate and independent covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

ensuing full or partial Fiscal Year, as the case may be (the “FF&E ESTIMATE”). If Landlord fails to disapprove of a proposed FF&E Estimate within thirty (30) days after the submission thereof to Landlord for its approval, the same shall be deemed approved. Together with each such FF&E Estimate, Tenant shall provide to Landlord a proposed five-year capital plan for the Hotel for Landlord’s review and approval. Tenant will provide Landlord with the material data and information utilized in preparing the FF&E Estimates or any revisions thereof. Tenant will not be deemed to have made any guaranty, warranty or representation whatsoever in connection with the FF&E Estimates, except that the proposed FF&E Estimates reflect Tenant’s best professional estimates of the matters they describe. The FF&E Estimate for the 2005 Fiscal Year shall have been delivered by Tenant to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date.

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

(e) All expenditures from the FF&E Reserve shall be (as to both the amount of each such expenditure and the timing thereof) both reasonable and necessary, given the objective that the Hotel will be maintained and operated to a standard comparable to competitive hotels. All amounts from the FF&E Reserve shall be paid to Persons who are not Affiliated Persons of Tenant without markup or allocated internal costs by Tenant or its Affiliated Persons except that Tenant may use Affiliated Persons to provide goods and services if Landlord has granted its prior written approval thereof.

(f) Tenant shall, consistent with the FF&E Estimate approved by Landlord, from time to time make expenditures from the FF&E Reserve to pay for Capital Replacements made during the Term. Tenant shall not materially deviate from the FF&E Estimate approved by Landlord without the prior approval of Landlord, except in the case of emergency where

immediate action is necessary to prevent imminent harm to person or property. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no additional cost or expense shall be incurred or paid in connection with any Capital Replacements made during the last two (2) years of the Term to the extent attributable solely to complying with the InterContinental brand standards.

(g) Any amounts remaining in the FF&E Reserve at the close of each Lease Year will be carried forward and retained in the FF&E Reserve. Any and all portions of the Hotel which are scrapped or removed in connection with the making of any major or non-major repairs, renovations, additions, alterations, improvements, removals or replacements shall be disposed of by Tenant and any net proceeds thereof shall be deposited in the FF&E Reserve and not included in Total Hotel Sales. In addition, any proceeds from the sale of FF&E no longer necessary to the operation of the Hotel shall be added to the FF&E Reserve.

(h) Subject to the terms of SECTION 5.1.2 (j), Tenant shall be the only party entitled to withdraw funds from the FF&E Reserve until a Default shall occur.

(i) Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall disburse to Landlord, or as Landlord shall direct, all amounts remaining in the FF&E Reserve after payments of all expenses on account of Capital Replacements appropriately incurred by Tenant during the Term.

(j) So long as the Managed Hotels are Pooled FF&E Hotels, it is understood and agreed that funds deposited in the FF&E Reserve pursuant to this Agreement and the Reserve Account under New Management Agreement shall be maintained and used on a consolidated basis such that all amounts to be deposited in the FF&E Reserve and such Reserve Account shall be deposited in a single account and Portfolio Manager and Tenant may apply any funds therein to any of the Pooled FF&E Hotels in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the New Management Agreement.

(k) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Landlord advises Tenant that in Landlord’s opinion, the fair market value of all personal property of Landlord at, about or which forms a part of the Property is equal to or exceeds thirteen and one half percent (13.5%) of the fair market value of the Property, Tenant and its

Affiliates shall not use funds from the FF&E Reserve or which are required to be expended pursuant to any purchase agreement to purchase additional personal property for use at, about or as part of the Property without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute judgment.

Provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Tenant shall otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of ARTICLE 6, Landlord shall, within twenty (20) Business Days after such Notice, subject to and in accordance with the applicable provisions of ARTICLE 6, disburse such required funds to Tenant for deposit in the FF&E Reserve and, upon such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in SECTION 3.1.1 (b). Tenant shall include a good faith projection of funds required pursuant to this SECTION 5.1.3 (b) in the FF&E Estimate.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition, improvement or repair to the Property or any part thereof or as giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Property or any part thereof nor to subject Landlord’s estate in the Property or any part thereof to liability under any mechanic’s lien law of any State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord’s estate shall not be subject to any such liability.

5.2 TENANT’S PERSONAL PROPERTY.

In the event either party believes that the then full replacement cost has increased or decreased at any time during the Term, such party, at its own cost, shall have the right to have such full replacement cost redetermined by an independent accredited appraiser approved by the other, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The party desiring to have the full replacement cost so redetermined shall forthwith, on receipt of such determination by such appraiser, give Notice thereof to the other. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding on the parties hereto until any subsequent determination under this SECTION 9.2, and Tenant shall forthwith conform the amount of the insurance carried to the amount so determined by the appraiser.

9.3 WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant agree that (insofar as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance coverage from responsible insurance companies doing business in the State) with respect to any property loss which

All such policies shall provide Landlord (and the Hotel Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy. In the event Tenant shall fail to effect such insurance as herein required, to pay the premiums therefor or to deliver such policies or certificates to Landlord or the Hotel Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall have the right, upon Notice to Tenant, but not the obligation, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Interest Rate from the date such payment is made until the date repaid.

9.5 BLANKET POLICY. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this ARTICLE 9, Tenant’s obligation to maintain the insurance herein required may be brought within the coverage of a so-called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant, provided, that (a) the coverage thereby afforded will not be reduced or diminished from

that which would exist under a separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Agreement, and (b) the requirements of this ARTICLE 9 are otherwise satisfied.

9.6 NO SEPARATE INSURANCE. Tenant shall not take out separate insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required by this ARTICLE 9, or increase the amount of any existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject matter of such insurance, including Landlord and all Hotel Mortgagees, are included therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable under such insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under this Agreement. In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance, Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof.

9.7 INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD. Notwithstanding the existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Property or adjoining sidewalks or rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant of the Property or Tenant’s Personal Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant relating to the Property or Tenant’s Personal Property or such use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than Condemnation proceedings to which Landlord is made a party), (c) any Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement (except if and to the extent such Imposition results from Landlord’s willful failure to comply with the terms of SECTION 20.20), (d) any failure on the part of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 10

CASUALTY

10.1 INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Except as provided in the last clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or damage to the Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under any policy of insurance required by ARTICLE 9 (other than the proceeds of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to Landlord (subject to the provisions of SECTION 10.2) and all loss adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If Tenant is required to reconstruct or repair the Property as provided herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of such Property necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 10.2.4. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be paid to Tenant. In the event that the provisions of SECTION 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained by the party entitled thereto pursuant to SECTION 10.2.1.

10.2 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

10.2.1 DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY. If, during the Term, the Property shall be totally or partially destroyed and the Hotel located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, (i) Tenant may, by the giving of Notice thereof to Landlord, within sixty (60) days after the date of such casualty, terminate this Agreement or (ii) Landlord may terminate this Agreement on not less than sixty days’ written notice to Tenant. If this Agreement is terminated by reason of or in connection with any casualty, the insurance proceeds shall

be allocated equitably by agreement of Landlord and Tenant, or, if Landlord and Tenant fail to agree within a reasonable time, by Arbitration.

10.2.2 PARTIAL DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. If, during the Term, the Property shall be totally or partially destroyed but the Hotel is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant shall promptly restore the Hotel as provided in SECTION 10.2.4 unless this Agreement is terminated as to the Hotel as provided in SECTION 10.2.3.

10.2.3 INSUFFICIENT INSURANCE PROCEEDS. If this Agreement is not otherwise terminated pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 and the cost of the repair or restoration of the Property exceeds the amount of net insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant on account of such casualty, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in SECTION 3.1.1 (b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement by Notice to the other, whereupon, this Agreement shall terminate and insurance proceeds shall be distributed as provided in SECTION 10.2.1. It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

10.2.4 DISBURSEMENT OF PROCEEDS. In the event Tenant is required to restore the Property pursuant to SECTION 10.2 and this Agreement is not terminated as to the Property pursuant to this ARTICLE 10, Tenant shall commence promptly and continue diligently to perform the repair and restoration of the Property

(hereinafter called the “WORK”), so as to restore the Property in material compliance with Applicable Law and so that such Property shall be, to the extent practicable, substantially equivalent in value and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior to such damage or destruction. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall advance the insurance proceeds and any additional amounts payable by Landlord pursuant to SECTION 10.2.3 or otherwise deposited with Landlord to Tenant regularly during the repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of any such restoration and repair. Any such advances shall be made not more than monthly within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant submits to Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably acceptable to Landlord). Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such insurance proceeds and other amounts on (i) the absence of any Event of Default, (ii) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (iii) general contractors’ estimates, (iv) architect’s certificates, (v) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (vi) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (vii) if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to SECTION 10.2.3, Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (viii) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require.

Landlord’s obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under this ARTICLE 10 during the last two (2) years of the Term (including any automatic renewals thereof) shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by the Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord. If the Hotel Mortgagee shall be unwilling to disburse insurance proceeds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Tenant shall have the right, by the giving of Notice thereof to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant learns of such unwillingness, to treat the Property as rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use for purposes of SECTION 10.2.1. Tenant’s obligation to restore the Property pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance proceeds by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord or directly to Tenant.

10.3 DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. Notwithstanding any provisions of SECTIONS 10.1 or 10.2 to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of the Property occurs during the last two (2)

years of the Term (including any automatic Extended Terms) and if such damage or destruction cannot reasonably be expected to be fully repaired and restored prior to the date that is twelve (12) months prior to the end of the Term, the provisions of SECTION 10.2.1 shall apply as if such Property had been totally or partially destroyed and the Hotel thereon rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use.

10.4 TENANT’S PROPERTY. All insurance proceeds payable by reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant’s Personal Property shall be paid to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or replace Tenant’s Personal Property in accordance with SECTION 10.5, Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or replacing damaged Tenant’s Personal Property.

10.5 RESTORATION OF TENANT’S PROPERTY. If Tenant is required to restore the Property as hereinabove provided and this Agreement is not terminated as to such Property pursuant to the terms of ARTICLE 10, Tenant shall either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and Tenant’s Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and improvements and Tenant’s Personal Property with improvements or items of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of such Property.

10.6 NO ABATEMENT OF RENT. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any damage involving the Property (provided that Landlord shall credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance obtained by Tenant hereunder). The provisions of this ARTICLE 10 shall be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or destruction to the Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

10.7 WAIVER. Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of the Property, or any portion thereof.

ARTICLE 11

CONDEMNATION

11.1 TOTAL CONDEMNATION, ETC. If either (i) the whole of the Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (ii) a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Property renders the Property Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate, and Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests as provided in SECTION 11.6.

11.2 PARTIAL CONDEMNATION. In the event of a Condemnation of less than the whole of the Property such that such Property is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall commence promptly and continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of the applicable Leased Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as such Leased Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with all Applicable Law, subject to and unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this SECTION 11.2. If the cost of the repair or restoration of the affected Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement). In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at Landlord’s sole election by Notice to Tenant given within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s Notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such deficiency; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in such event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in SECTION 3.1.1 (b). In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement and the entire Award shall be allocated as set forth in SECTION 11.6.

Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded for the taken Leased Improvements and any

other amounts deposited with or payable by Landlord, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration. Landlord may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other amounts on (i) the absence of any Event of Default, (ii) its approval of plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (iii) general contractors’ estimates, (iv) architect’s certificates, (v) unconditional lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (vi) evidence of approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies whose approval is required, (vii) if Tenant has elected to advance deficiency funds pursuant to the preceding paragraph, Tenant depositing the amount thereof with Landlord and (viii) such other certificates as Landlord may, from time to time, reasonably require. Landlord’s obligation under this SECTION 11.2 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) during the last two (2) years of the Term (including any exercised renewals thereof), the release of such Award by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee. If the Hotel Mortgagee shall be unwilling to disburse Award proceeds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Tenant shall have the right, by the giving of Notice thereof to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant learns of such unwillingness, to treat the Property as rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use for purposes of SECTION 11.1. Tenant’s obligation to restore the Property shall be subject to the release of the Award by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord or directly to Tenant.

11.3 ABATEMENT OF RENT. Other than as specifically provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and Tenant’s obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the Property, or any portion thereof. The provisions of this ARTICLE 11 shall be considered an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such case.

11.4 TEMPORARY CONDEMNATION. In the event of any temporary Condemnation of the Property or Tenant’s interest therein, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall continue to pay, in the manner and on the terms herein

specified, the full amount of the Rent. Tenant shall continue to perform and observe all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed and observed. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant. Tenant shall, promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the Property to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in material compliance with Applicable Law, unless such period of temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term, in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration.

11.5 CONDEMNATION NEAR END OF TERM. Notwithstanding any provisions of SECTIONS 11.2 or 11.3 to the contrary, if Condemnation of the Property occurs during the last two (2) years of the Term (including any automatic Extended Terms) and if restoration cannot reasonably be expected to be completed prior to the date that is twelve (12) months prior to the end of the Term, the provisions of SECTION 11.1 shall apply as if such Property had been totally or partially taken and the Hotel thereon rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use.

11.6 ALLOCATION OF AWARD. Except as provided in SECTION 11.4, in any Condemnation proceedings, Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity herewith, at its own expense.

ARTICLE 12

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

12.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “EVENT OF DEFAULT” hereunder:

(a) Subject to any applicable notice or cure provisions, Tenant’s failure to make any payment of the Minimum Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges due to Landlord or Tenant’s failure to pay any other Additional Charges or any other sum (including, but not limited to, funding of the FF&E Reserve) payable hereunder which has a material effect on the operation of the Property; or

(b) Tenant’s failure to maintain the insurance coverages required under ARTICLE 9; or

(c) Tenant’s default in the due observance or performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure or cause to be cured such default within thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes the curing of such default with all due diligence, such period of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to exceed an additional one (1) year in the aggregate) as may be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or

(d) Tenant’s initiation or maintenance of any claim or action against Landlord in respect of the condition of the Property; or

(e) The termination of the New Management Agreement pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 10.3 thereof; or

(f) The occurrence of a Manager Event of Default under the New Management Agreement.

So long as an Event of Default shall be outstanding, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies available to it, may terminate this Agreement by giving Notice thereof to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such Notice, this Agreement shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under this Agreement with respect thereto shall cease. Landlord shall have and may exercise all rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Property or any portion thereof and take possession of any and all of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, and the Records, without liability for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant’s Personal Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law. Unless

otherwise provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice shall be met if such Notice is given at least ten (10) days before the date of sale. The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees), shall be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by the security interest granted in SECTION 7.2. Any surplus shall be paid to Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

12.2 REMEDIES. None of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to SECTION 12.1, (b) the repossession of the Property or any portion thereof, (c) the failure of Landlord to re-let the Property or any portion thereof, nor (d) the reletting of all or any of portion of the Property, shall relieve Tenant of its accrued liability or obligations which by their terms survive hereunder, all of which shall survive any such termination, repossession or re-letting. In the event of any such termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and payable with respect to the Property through and including the date of such termination. Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such termination, and whether or not the Property or any portion thereof shall have been re-let, shall be liable to Landlord for, and shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent (Additional Rent to be reasonably calculated by Landlord based on historical Total Hotel Sales) and other charges which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any re-letting of the Property, after deducting all reasonable expenses in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys’ fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for such reletting. Tenant shall pay such current damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated.

Upon such termination, whether or not Landlord shall have collected any such current damages, Landlord shall be entitled to liquidated damages. Landlord’s right to receive liquidated damages has been agreed to due to the uncertainty, difficulty and/or impossibility of ascertaining the actual damages suffered

by Landlord. Further, if not for Landlord’s right to receive such liquidated damages, Landlord’s Affiliated Person would not have entered into the Purchase Agreement and Landlord would not have entered into this Agreement. TENANT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE NOT A PENALTY, BUT ARE TO COMPENSATE LANDLORD AND ITS AFFILIATES FOR THE EXPENSE AND LOST EARNINGS WHICH MAY RESULT FROM ARRANGING SUBSTITUTE MANAGEMENT AND/OR TENANCY FOR THE HOTEL AS WELL AS TO COMPENSATE FOR PRICE PAID FOR THE HOTEL BY LANDLORD’S AFFILIATED PERSON. Such liquidated damages shall be equal to all accrued but unpaid amounts due to Landlord hereunder up until the date of termination, plus the Outstanding Balance (as defined in the Guaranty). Landlord shall be entitled to interest, at the Interest Rate, on such liquidated damages from the date of such termination until the date of payment of such damages and interest. Except with respect to Landlord’s rights and remedies for any breach or violations by Tenant of the terms of SECTION 5.3 and ARTICLE 13, Landlord shall look solely to any collateral hereafter pledged securing Tenant’s obligations hereunder for satisfaction of any claim of Landlord against Tenant hereunder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, nothing contained herein is intended to, nor shall, limit or reduce the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guaranty or limit Landlord’s rights with respect thereto.

In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may (a) relet the Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord’s option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable and necessary to relet the same, and (b) may make such reasonable alterations, repairs and decorations in the Property or any portion thereof as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Property, or, in the event that the Property is relet, for failure to collect the rent under such reletting. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of

an Event of Default hereunder. Landlord covenants and agrees, in the event of any termination of this Agreement as a result of an Event of Default, to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages.

12.3 WAIVER. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, each of the parties hereto waives its rights to trial by jury with respect to this Agreement or matters arising in connection herewith. FURTHER TO THE FOREGOING, IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 12.1 OR 12.2, TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, (i) ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12, AND (ii) THE BENEFIT OF ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR RENT OR FOR DEBT.

12.4 APPLICATION OF FUNDS. Any payments received by Landlord under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall be applied to Tenant’s current and past due obligations under this Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be prescribed by the laws of the State.

12.5 LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO CURE TENANT’S DEFAULT. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Property or any portion thereof for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate therefor. No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Interest Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

ARTICLE 13

HOLDING OVER

Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at sufferance at a rate equal to two (2) times the Minimum Rent and other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis). Tenant shall also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by reason of any such holding over. Otherwise, such holding over shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent applicable. Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent, express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 14

LANDLORD’S DEFAULT

If Landlord shall default in the performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any agreement affecting the Property, the performance of which is not Tenant’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement, and any such default shall continue for a period of five (5) Business Days after Notice thereof with respect to monetary defaults and twenty (20) Business Days after Notice thereof with respect to non-monetary defaults from Tenant to Landlord and any applicable Hotel Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be reasonably required to correct the same provided Landlord is proceeding with due diligence to correct the same, then Tenant may declare the occurrence of a “Landlord Default” by a second Notice to Landlord and to the Hotel Mortgagee and Tenant shall have the right to institute forthwith any and all proceedings permitted by law or equity (provided they are not specifically barred under the terms of this Agreement), including, without limitation, actions for specific performance and/or damages; provided, however, except as may be expressly provided in this Agreement, Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other charges due hereunder. In the event Landlord wrongfully terminates this Agreement or if Tenant terminates this Agreement pursuant to any right to do so contained herein as a result of Landlord’s breach, then, subject to Tenant’s mitigation obligations, Tenant shall be entitled to recover as

part of its damages for such wrongful termination an amount equal to the damages suffered by Tenant on account of terminating the employment of on-site employees of the Hotel in connection therewith.

If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with respect thereto until final adverse, determination thereof.

ARTICLE 15

SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

15.1 SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT. Except as provided in SECTIONS 15.3 and 15.5, Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Agreement or sublease (which term shall be deemed to include the granting of concessions, licenses and the like but shall not be deemed to include the lodging of hotel guests consistent with the Permitted Use), all or any part of the Property or suffer or permit this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights arising under this Agreement to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged, pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or operation of the Property by anyone other than Tenant, or the Property to be offered or advertised for assignment or subletting. For purposes of this SECTION 15.1, an assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include any transaction which results in Tenant no longer being an Affiliated Person of Guarantor or pursuant to which all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets are transferred to any Person who is not an Affiliated Person of Guarantor.

If this Agreement is assigned or if the Property or any part thereof are sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant and its employees or hotel guests), then Landlord may collect the rents from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such collection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in this SECTION 15.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a release of Tenant from the future

performance by Tenant of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.

No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the prohibition set forth in this SECTION 15.1. No assignment, subletting or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use; any subletting, assignment or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Agreement in contravention of this SECTION 15.1 shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.

15.2 REQUIRED SUBLEASE PROVISIONS. Any sublease of all or any portion of the Property entered into on or after the date hereof shall provide (a) that it is subject and subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termination of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor the Hotel Mortgagee, as holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit, counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous prepayment of more than one (1) month’s rent, (iv) be bound by any covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Property or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits, except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment, (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of such subtenant unless actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any portion of the Property; and (c) in the event that such subtenant receives

a written Notice from Landlord or the Hotel Mortgagee stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such party may direct. All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord or the Hotel Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord, execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to attorn. An original counterpart of each such sublease or any assignment hereof, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee, as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (a) in the case of an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (b) in case of either an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.

The provisions of this SECTION 15.2 shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of SECTION 15.1.

15.3 PERMITTED SUBLEASE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, including, without limitation, SECTION 15.2, but subject to the provisions of SECTION 15.4 and any other express conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant may, in each instance after Notice to Landlord, sublease space at the Property for newsstand, car rental agency, business services office, gift shop, parking garage, health club, restaurant, bar or commissary purposes or other concessions in furtherance of the Permitted Use, so long as such subleases (a) do not have a term in excess of the shorter of five (5) years or the remaining Term, (b) do not demise, (i) in the aggregate, in excess of Five Thousand (5,000) square feet of the Hotel, or (ii) for any single sublease, in excess of One Thousand (1,000) square feet of the Hotel, (c) will not violate or affect any Applicable Law or any Insurance Requirement, (d) Tenant shall provide such additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and the Hotel Mortgagee may reasonably require, and (e) not less than twenty (20) days prior

to the date on which Tenant proposes to enter into any sublease or concession, Tenant shall provide a copy thereof to Landlord.

15.4 SUBLEASE LIMITATION. For so long as Landlord or any Affiliated Person as to Landlord shall seek to qualify as a “real estate investment trust” under the Code, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet or otherwise enter into any agreement with respect to the Hotel on any basis such that in the opinion of the Landlord the rental or other fees to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would be based, in whole or in part, on either (i) the income or profits derived by the business activities of such sublessee, or (ii) any other formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto.

15.5 PERMITTED ASSIGNMENTS. Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord’s consent but subject to SECTION 20.23, to assign its interest in this Agreement (a) to IHG or any Affiliate of IHG, (b) in connection with a merger, corporate restructuring or consolidation of IHG or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of IHG and (c) in connection with a sale of all or substantially all of the assets (including associated management agreements) owned by IHG and its Affiliates relating to the InterContinental brand. At Landlord’s election, Tenant shall assign this Agreement to any Person who is not an Affiliate of IHG that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of IHG relating to the InterContinental brand and shall cause such Person to assume all of Tenant’s obligations thereafter accruing hereunder.

15.6 SALE BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not sell or otherwise transfer the Property other than to an Affiliated Person of Landlord or in connection with a sale or transfer of all the Managed Hotels permitted pursuant to the terms of the New Management Agreement.

ARTICLE 16

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

At any time and from time to time, but not more than a reasonable amount of times per year, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior Notice by either party, the party receiving such Notice shall furnish to the other an Officer’s Certificate certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force

and effect (or that this Agreement is in full force and effect as modified and setting forth the modifications), the date to which the Rent has been paid, that no Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, if a Default or an Event of Default shall exist, specifying in reasonable detail the nature thereof, and the steps being taken to remedy the same, and such additional information as the requesting party may reasonably request. Any such certificate furnished pursuant to this ARTICLE 16 may be relied upon by the requesting party, its lenders and any prospective purchaser or mortgagee of the Property or the leasehold estate created hereby.

ARTICLE 17

LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO INSPECT

Tenant shall permit Landlord and its authorized representatives to inspect the Property during usual business hours upon not less than twenty-four (24) hours’ Notice and to make such repairs as Landlord is permitted or required to make pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided that any inspection or repair by Landlord or its representatives will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use and operation of the Property and further provided that in the event of an emergency, as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion, prior Notice shall not be necessary.

ARTICLE 18

EASEMENTS

18.1 GRANT OF EASEMENTS. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord will join in granting and, if necessary, modifying or abandoning such rights-of-way, easements and other interests as may be reasonably requested by Tenant for ingress and egress, and electric, telephone, gas, water, sewer and other utilities so long as:

(a) the instrument creating, modifying or abandoning any such easement, right-of-way or other interest is satisfactory to and approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); and

(b) Landlord receives an Officer’s Certificate from Tenant stating (i) that such grant, modification or abandonment is not detrimental to the proper conduct of business on such Property, (ii) the consideration, if any,

being paid for such grant, modification or abandonment (which consideration shall be paid by Tenant), (iii) that such grant, modification or abandonment does not impair the use or value of such Property for the Permitted Use, and (iv) that, for as long as this Agreement shall be in effect, Tenant will perform all obligations, if any, of Landlord under any such instrument.

18.2 EXERCISE OF RIGHTS BY TENANT. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Tenant shall have the right to exercise all rights of Landlord under the Easement Agreements and, in connection therewith, Landlord shall execute and promptly return to Tenant such documents as Tenant shall reasonably request. Tenant shall perform all obligations of Landlord under the Easement Agreements.

18.3 PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCES. Any agreements entered into in accordance with SECTION 18.1 shall be deemed a Permitted Encumbrance.

ARTICLE 19

HOTEL MORTGAGES

19.1 LANDLORD MAY GRANT LIENS. Landlord shall be entitled to encumber the Hotel and the Property with one or more Hotel Mortgages which are expressly subordinate to this Agreement and/or with one or more Hotel Mortgages in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

(a) The loan or other debt secured by such Hotel Mortgage shall not be cross-collateralized with other property or hotels which are not managed or franchised by Tenant, IHG or their respective Affiliated Persons;

(b) the principal amount secured by such Hotel Mortgage shall not exceed the sum of seventy five percent (75%) (or, if less than four (4) Pooled FF&E Hotels secure such principal amount, sixty five percent (65%)) of the sum of the fair market values, as of the date of the granting of such Hotel Mortgage, of the Pledged Hotels and the other properties securing such principal amount;

(c) as of the date of the granting of such Hotel Mortgage, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio associated with such loan or debt secured thereby shall not be less than (i) 1.4 if fewer than four (4) Pooled FF&E Hotels secure

such loan or other debt or (ii) 1.3 if four (4) or more Pooled FF&E Hotels secure such loan or other debt; and

(d) the holder of such Hotel Mortgage shall execute and deliver to Tenant (Tenant agreeing to likewise execute and deliver to such holder) a so-called subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement which shall provide that:

(i) this Agreement and Tenant’s rights hereunder are subject and subordinate to the Hotel Mortgage, the lien thereof, the rights of the holder thereof and to any and all advances made thereunder, interest thereon or costs incurred in connection therewith;

(ii) so long as this Agreement is in full force and effect and there exists no Event of Default, Tenant’s rights under this Agreement shall not be disturbed by reason of such subordination or by reason of foreclosure of such Hotel Mortgage or receipt of deed in lieu of foreclosure;

(iii) Tenant shall attorn to the holder or the purchaser at any such foreclosure or the grantee of any such deed (each, a “SUCCESSOR LANDLORD”);

(iv) in the event of such attornment, the terms of this Agreement binding on Landlord and Tenant shall continue in full force and effect as a direct agreement between such Successor Landlord and Tenant, upon all the terms, conditions and covenants set forth herein, except that the Successor Landlord shall not be (A) bound by any payment of Rent in advance of when due; (B) bound by any amendment or modification of this Agreement made after the date that Tenant first had written notice of such Hotel Mortgage without the consent of the holder thereof; (C) liable in any way to Tenant for any act or omission, neglect or default on the part of Landlord under this Agreement; (D) obligated to perform any work or improvements to be done by Landlord or to make any advances except for those advances to be made pursuant to SECTION 5.1.3 (b) from and after the date on which such Successor Landlord acquired the Hotel; or (E) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore accrued to Tenant against Landlord;

(v) in the event of a casualty or Condemnation affecting the Hotel which does not result in the

termination of this Agreement with respect to the Hotel, the net insurance proceeds or Award shall be applied to the restoration of the Hotel as herein provided;

(vi) such other terms as are customary for similar agreements; and

(vii) if the Portfolio Owner exercises its right under the New Management Agreement to cause the Pledged Hotels which are Managed Hotels to be managed pursuant to a separate management agreement pursuant to the terms of Section 4.3(b) of the New Management Agreement, the parties shall make appropriate allocations in the FF&E Reserve and any outstanding advances made by Landlord, Tenant or their respective Affiliated Person so that the obligations allocable to the Pooled FF&E Hotels subject to a Hotel Mortgage shall not be due from the other Pooled FF&E Hotels and VICE VERSA. Without the consent of Tenant, the holder of any Hotel Mortgage shall have the right to elect to be subject and subordinate to this Agreement, such subordination to be effective upon such terms and conditions as such holder may direct which are not inconsistent with the provisions hereof.

Tenant shall be entitled to pay any overdue regularly scheduled payments of interest and principal on any Hotel Mortgage encumbering the Hotel and offset amounts so paid against the Rent due hereunder.

19.2 NOTICE TO MORTGAGEE AND SUPERIOR LANDLORD. Subsequent to the receipt by Tenant of Notice from Landlord as to the identity of the Hotel Mortgagee, no Notice from Tenant to Landlord as to a default by Landlord under this Agreement shall be effective with respect to the Hotel Mortgagee unless and until a copy of the same is given to the Hotel Mortgagee at the address set forth in the above described Notice, and the curing of any of Landlord’s defaults within the applicable notice and cure periods set forth in ARTICLE 14 by the Hotel Mortgagee shall be treated as performance by Landlord.

ARTICLE 20

MISCELLANEOUS

20.1 LIMITATION ON PAYMENT OF RENT. All agreements between Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other

amounts payable to Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum amount permissible under Applicable Law, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then, IPSO FACTO, the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the payment of such excessive amount. This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between Landlord and Tenant.

20.2 NO WAIVER. No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such term. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.

20.3 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Agreement or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of such other rights, powers and remedies.

20.4 SEVERABILITY. Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or nullify the remainder of this Agreement, but rather the effect thereof shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section or provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective provisions had never been contained therein.

20.5 ACCEPTANCE OF SURRENDER. No surrender to Landlord of this Agreement or of the Property or any part thereof, or of any

interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such surrender.

20.6 NO MERGER OF TITLE. It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold, directly or indirectly, this Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord’s interest in the Property.

20.7 CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD. If Landlord or any successor owner of all or any portion of the Property shall convey all or any portion of the Property in accordance with the terms hereof other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such of the Property shall expressly assume all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and obligations of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to such of the Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.

20.8 QUIET ENJOYMENT. Upon Tenant’s payment of the Rent reserved herein, Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Property for the Term, free of hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Hotel Mortgage or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder, (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere with Tenant’s ability to operate the Hotel and (d) liens that have been consented to in writing by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any other sum payable under this Agreement or to fail to perform any other obligation of Tenant hereunder.

20.9 RECORDATION OF LEASE. This Agreement shall be recorded in the form of a Deed of Lease, a memorandum of lease

or such other abbreviated form as may be recordable at the Puerto Rico Registry of Property.

20.10 NOTICES.

(a) Any and all notices, demands, consents, approvals, offers, elections and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed adequately given if in writing and the same shall be delivered either in hand, by telecopier with written acknowledgment of receipt, or by mail or Federal Express or similar expedited commercial carrier, addressed to the recipient of the notice, postpaid and registered or certified with return receipt requested (if by mail), or with all freight charges prepaid (if by Federal Express or similar carrier).

(b) All notices required or permitted to be sent hereunder shall be deemed to have been given for all purposes of this Agreement upon the date of acknowledged receipt, in the case of a notice by telecopier, and, in all other cases, upon the date of receipt or refusal, except that whenever under this Agreement a notice is either received on a day which is not a Business Day or is required to be delivered on or before a specific day which is not a Business Day, the day of receipt or required delivery shall automatically be extended to the next Business Day.

(d) By notice given as herein provided, the parties hereto and their respective successor and assigns shall have the right from time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such notice and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.

20.11 TRADE AREA RESTRICTION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Commencement Date, neither Tenant nor any Affiliated Person as to Tenant will acquire, own, manage, operate or open any hotel as an “InterContinental” hotel nor shall Tenant or any such Affiliated Person authorize a third party to operate or open any hotel as an “InterContinental” hotel within the restricted area depicted on EXHIBIT B unless such hotel (i) is owned or leased by Landlord or its Affiliate, (ii) is owned, operated, managed, franchised or under development on the Commencement Date and has been specifically approved by Landlord in writing at or prior to the time of the execution of the Purchase Agreement or replaces any such hotel, provided such replacement hotel is not first opened after such time and does not have more than ten percent (10%) more guest

rooms than the original hotel which it replaces, or (iii) is part of an acquisition by Tenant or its Affiliates of an interest (including an interest as a franchisor) in a chain or group of not less than five (5) comparable full service hotels (such acquisition to occur in a single transaction or a series of related transactions). The terms of this SECTION 20.11 shall apply only to “InterContinental” hotels and shall not in any way restrict the ownership, management, franchising or operation of other brands or flags of any hotels owned or operated by Tenant or its Affiliates within the State.

20.12 CONSTRUCTION. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all claims against, and liabilities of, Tenant or Landlord arising prior to any date of termination or expiration of this Agreement with respect to the Property shall survive such termination or expiration. In no event shall Landlord be liable for any consequential damages suffered by Tenant as the result of a breach of this Agreement by Landlord. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Each term or provision of this Agreement to be performed by Tenant shall be construed as an independent covenant and condition. Time is of the essence with respect to the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any obligations of Tenant (including without limitation, any monetary, repair and indemnification obligations) and Landlord shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement.

20.13 COUNTERPARTS; HEADINGS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument and shall become effective as of the date hereof when copies hereof, which when taken together bear the signatures of each of the parties hereto, shall have been signed. Headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or affect the meaning of the provisions hereof.

20.14 APPLICABLE LAW, ETC. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico applicable to contracts between residents of Puerto Rico which are to be performed entirely within Puerto Rico, regardless of (i) where this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any

payment or other performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or (iii) where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than Puerto Rico; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the laws of the State shall apply to the perfection and priority of liens upon and the disposition of the Property.

To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, any action to enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any of the provisions of this Agreement may be brought and prosecuted in such court or courts located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico as is provided by law; and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of said court or courts located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and to service of process by registered mail, return receipt requested, or by any other manner provided by law.

20.15 RIGHT TO MAKE AGREEMENT. Each party warrants, with respect to itself, that neither the execution of this Agreement, nor the consummation of any transaction contemplated hereby, shall violate any provision of any law, or any judgment, writ, injunction, order or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over it; nor result in or constitute a breach or default under any indenture, contract, other commitment or restriction to which it is a party or by which it is bound; nor require any consent, vote or approval which has not been given or taken, or at the time of the transaction involved shall not have been given or taken. Each party covenants that it has and will continue to have, throughout the term of this Agreement and any extensions thereof, the full right to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder.

20.16 NONRECOURSE. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any liabilities or obligations on Tenant’s or Landlord’s shareholders, officers, directors, agents or employees (or any shareholders, officers, directors, agents or employees of any of the foregoing) for the performance of the obligations of Landlord or Tenant hereunder.

20.17 ATTORNEYS’ FEES. If any lawsuit or arbitration or other legal proceeding arises in connection with the

interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party therein shall be entitled to receive from the other party the prevailing party’s costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith, in preparation therefor and on appeal therefrom, which amounts shall be included in any judgment therein.

20.18 SECURITIES FILINGS. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord in connection with the preparation of any documents Landlord or a Landlord Affiliated Party files under the United States Securities Act of 1933 or the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Landlord with financial statements and other financial information that Landlord requests relating to periods prior to the Commencement Date and to obtain consents from Tenant’s independent accountants in connection therewith.

20.19 ARBITRATION.

(a) Whenever in this Agreement it is provided that a dispute is to be resolved by an Arbitration, such dispute shall be finally resolved pursuant to an arbitration before a panel of three (3) arbitrators who will conduct the arbitration proceeding in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by Tenant and Landlord, the arbitration proceedings will be conducted in New York, New York. All arbitrators appointed by or on behalf of either party shall be independent persons with recognized expertise in the operation of hotels of similar size and class as the Hotel with not less than five (5) years’ experience in the hotel industry. The party desiring arbitration will give Notice to that effect to the other party, specifying in such Notice the name, address and professional qualifications of the person designated as arbitrator on its behalf. Within fifteen (15) days after service of such Notice, the other party will give Notice to the party desiring such arbitration specifying the name, address and professional qualifications of the person designated to act as arbitrator on its behalf. The two arbitrators will, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, select a third, neutral arbitrator. As soon as possible after the selection of the third arbitrator, and no later than fifteen (15) days thereafter, the parties will submit their positions on each disputed item in writing to the three arbitrators. The decision of the arbitrators so chosen shall be given within a period of twenty (20) days after the appointment of such third arbitrator. The

arbitrators must, by majority vote, agree upon and approve the substantive position of either Tenant or Landlord with respect to each disputed item, and are not authorized to agree upon or impose any other substantive position which has not been presented to the arbitrators by Tenant or Landlord. It is the intention of the parties that the arbitrators rule only on the substantive positions submitted to them by the parties and the arbitrators are not authorized to render rulings which are a compromise as to any such substantive position. A decision in which any two (2) arbitrators so appointed and acting hereunder concur in writing with respect to each disputed item shall in all cases be binding and conclusive upon Tenant or Landlord and a copy of said decision shall be forwarded to the parties. The parties will request that the arbitrators assess the costs and expenses of the Arbitration and their fees against the parties based on a finding as to which parties substantive positions were not upheld. Otherwise the fees and expenses of the arbitration will be treated as an Operating Cost and paid by Tenant unless otherwise determined by the arbitrators.

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

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

20.20 TAX EXEMPTION DECREE. Without limiting Tenant’s obligations hereunder or at law with respect to the Tax Exemption Decree, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to violate the requirements of the Tax Exemption Decree imposed on Landlord. Except as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, neither Tenant nor Landlord shall amend, modify or otherwise alter the Tax Exemption Decree without the consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant and Landlord shall each comply with any

reasonable request made by the other to execute and deliver any document which may be necessary or convenient (i) to maintain the Tax Exemption Decree in full force and effect, (ii) to give effect to the terms of SECTION 3.1.3 (e) and allocate as much as practicable the responsibility for the obligations described in such Section to Tenant’s portion of the Tax Exemption Decree, and (iii) so that the Tax Exemption Decree does not impose any obligation or other term upon Landlord which (after giving effect to the terms of this Agreement) would adversely affect the qualification of the Rent and other amounts payable by Tenant hereunder as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code. Tenant shall be and remain an “exempt business” as defined in Section 2(m) of the Puerto Rico Tourism Development Act of 1993.

20.21 COOPERATION. Landlord and Tenant agree, upon request of the other, to use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Agency (including, but not limited to, tax exemptions or concessions under the Tax Exemption Decree) as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Imposition or Landlord Tax that could be imposed and (b) mitigate the effects of the expiration or termination of the Tax Exemption Decree not due to the fault of the requesting party.

20.22 PRIVATE LETTER RULING. As soon as practicable after the date hereof, Landlord shall apply to the Internal Revenue Service for a private letter ruling to the effect that the Additional Rent reserved hereunder qualifies as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code. If Landlord does not obtain a favorable letter ruling to such effect within six (6) months after the date hereof, then Landlord and Tenant shall renegotiate, in good faith, the provisions hereof relating to Additional Rent so that the same qualifies as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code with the intent that Landlord receive approximately the same level of overall Additional Rent as would have obtained if the Additional Rent provisions were not renegotiated.

20.23 AFFILIATED MANAGER. For so long as Landlord or any Affiliated Person as to Landlord shall seek to qualify as a “real estate investment trust” under the Code, Tenant: (i) shall remain taxable under the Code as an association taxable as a corporation; (ii) shall not become a direct or indirect subsidiary of InterContinental Hotels Group Resources, Inc. or of any Portfolio Manager; (iii) shall not permit either InterContinental Hotels Groups Resources, Inc. or any Portfolio

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as a sealed instrument as of the date above first written.
