         5.      AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY.  The Company agrees with the
several Underwriters as follows:

                 (a)  If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
         it is necessary for the Registration Statement or a post-effective
         amendment thereto to be declared effective before the offering of the
         Notes may commence, the Company will endeavor to cause the
         Registration Statement or such post-effective amendment to become
         effective as soon as possible and will advise you promptly and, if
         requested by you, will confirm such advice in writing, when the
         Registration Statement or such post-effective amendment has become
         effective.

                 (b)  The Company will advise you promptly and, if requested by
         you, will confirm such advice in writing:  (i) of any request by the
         Commission for amendment of or a supplement to the Registration
         Statement, any Prepricing Prospectus or Prospectus, or for additional
         information; (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
         suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the
         suspension of qualification of the Notes for offering or sale in any
         jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and
         (iii) within the period of time referred to in paragraph (f) below, of
         any change in the condition (financial or other), business, prospects,
         properties, net worth or results of operations of the Company and its
         subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or of the happening of any event,
         including the filing of any information, documents, or reports
         pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
         "Exchange Act"), that in each case makes any statement of a material
         fact made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as then
         amended or supplemented) untrue or that requires the making of any
         additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the
         Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) in order to state a
         material





                                       4
<PAGE>   5
         fact required by the Act to be stated therein or necessary in order to
         make the statements therein (with respect to the Prospectus, in the
         light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading,
         or of the necessity to amend or supplement the Prospectus (as then
         amended or supplemented) to comply with the Act or any other law.  If
         at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the
         effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will make
         every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the
         earliest possible time.

                 (c)  The Company will furnish to you, without charge, five
         signed copies of the registration statement as originally filed with
         the Commission and of each amendment thereto, including financial
         statements and all exhibits thereto, and will also furnish to you,
         without charge, such number of conformed copies of the registration
         statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto, but
         without exhibits, as you may reasonably request.

                 (d)  The Company will not (i) file any amendment to the
         Registration Statement or make any amendment or supplement to the
         Prospectus of which you shall not previously have been advised or to
         which you shall reasonably object after being so advised or (ii) so
         long as, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, a prospectus
         is required to be delivered in connection with sales by any
         Underwriter or dealer, file any information, documents or reports
         pursuant to the Exchange Act, without delivering a copy of such
         information, documents or reports to you, as Representatives of the
         Underwriters, prior to or concurrently with such filing.

                 (e)  Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
         the Company has delivered to you, without charge, in such quantities
         as you have reasonably requested, copies of each form of the
         Prepricing Prospectus.  The Company consents to the use, in accordance
         with the provisions of the Act and with the securities or Blue Sky
         laws or real estate syndication laws of the jurisdictions in which the
         Notes are offered by the several Underwriters and by dealers, prior to
         the date of the Prospectus, of each Prepricing Prospectus so furnished
         by the Company.

                 (f)  As soon after the execution and delivery of this
         Agreement as possible and thereafter from time to time for such period
         as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is
         required by the Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any





                                       5
<PAGE>   6
         Underwriter or dealer, the Company will expeditiously deliver to each
         Underwriter and each dealer, without charge, as many copies of the
         Prospectus (and of any amendment or supplement thereto) as you may
         request.  The Company consents to the use of the Prospectus (and of
         any amendment or supplement thereto) in accordance with the provisions
         of the Act and with the securities or Blue Sky laws or real estate
         syndication laws of the jurisdictions in which the Notes are offered
         by the several Underwriters and by all dealers to whom Notes may be
         sold, both in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes and
         for such period of time thereafter as a prospectus is required by the
         Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or
         dealer.  If during such period of time any event shall occur that in
         the judgment of the Company or in the opinion of counsel for the
         Underwriters is required to be set forth in the Prospectus (as then
         amended or supplemented) or should be set forth therein in order to
         make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary to
         supplement or amend the Prospectus to comply with the Act or any other
         law, the Company will forthwith prepare and, subject to the provisions
         of paragraph (d) above, file with the Commission an appropriate
         supplement or amendment thereto, and will expeditiously furnish to the
         Underwriters and dealers a reasonable number of copies thereof.

                 (g)  The Company will cooperate with you and with counsel for
         the Underwriters in connection with the registration or qualification
         of the Notes for offering and sale by the several Underwriters and by
         dealers under the securities or Blue Sky laws or real estate
         syndication laws of such jurisdictions as you may designate and will
         file such consents to service of process or other documents necessary
         or appropriate in order to effect such registration or qualification;
         provided that in no event shall the Company be obligated to qualify to
         do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to
         take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits,
         other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Notes, in
         any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

                 (h)  The Company will make generally available to its security
         holders a consolidated earnings statement, which need not be audited,
         covering a twelve-month period commencing after the effective date of
         the Registration Statement and ending not later than 15 months
         thereafter, as soon as practicable after the end





                                       6
<PAGE>   7
         of such period, which consolidated earnings statement shall satisfy
         the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.

                 (i)  For so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company
         will furnish to you (i) as soon as available, a copy of each report of
         the Company mailed to stockholders or filed with the Commission or the
         New York Stock Exchange, and (ii) from time to time such other
         information concerning the Company as you may request.

                 (j)  The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of
         the Notes substantially in accordance with the description set forth
         in the Prospectus.

                 (k)  If Rule 430A of the Act is employed, the Company will
         timely file the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act and
         will advise you of the time and manner of such filing.

                 (l)  During the period beginning on the date hereof and
         continuing to and including the Closing Date, the Company will not,
         without the prior written consent of Smith Barney Inc., offer, pledge,
         sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities of
         the Company or warrants to purchase debt securities of the Company
         substantially similar to the Notes (other than (i) the Notes, (ii)
         notes incurred to the lenders under the Credit Agreement (as defined
         in the Prospectus) or (iii) the Vinings Indebtedness (as defined in
         the Prospectus)).

                 (m)  Except as stated in this Agreement and in the Prepricing
         Prospectus and Prospectus, the Company has not taken, nor will it
         take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might
         reasonably be expected to cause or result in stabilization or
         manipulation of the price of the Notes to facilitate the sale or
         resale of the Notes.

                 (n)  The Company shall not voluntarily claim, and shall
         actively resist any attempt to claim, the benefit of any usury laws
         against the holders of the Notes.

         6.      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.  The Company
represents and warrants to each Underwriter that (in each of paragraphs (a)
through (ff), after giving effect to the Formation):

                 (a)  Each Prepricing Prospectus included as part of the
         registration statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment
         or supplement thereto, or filed

         material respects with the provisions of the Act.  The Commission has
         not issued any order preventing or suspending the use of any
         Prepricing Prospectus.

                 (b)  The registration statement in the form in which it became
         or becomes effective and also in such form as it may be when any
         post-effective amendment thereto shall become effective and the
         Prospectus and any supplement or amendment thereto when filed with the
         Commission under Rule 424(b) or Rule 462 under the Act, complied or
         will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Act
         and did not or will not at any such times contain an untrue statement
         of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
         stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (with
         respect to the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made) not misleading, except that this representation
         and warranty does not apply (i) to statements in or omissions from the
         registration statement or the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in
         conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to
         the Company in writing by a Underwriter through the Representatives
         expressly for use therein or (ii) to that part of the Registration
         Statement that constitutes the Statement of Eligibility (Form T-1)
         under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust
         Indenture Act"), of the Trustee (the "Form T-1").

                 (c)  The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly
         existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with
         full corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its

         Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and is duly registered and
         qualified to conduct its business and is in good standing in each
         jurisdiction where the nature of its properties or the conduct of its
         business requires such registration or qualification, except where the
         failure so to register or qualify or be in good standing does not have
         a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or other),
         business, properties, net worth or results of operations of the
         Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a "Material Adverse
         Effect").

                 (e)  All the Company's subsidiaries that are required to
         be listed in an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the
         "Subsidiaries") are so listed.  Each Subsidiary is a corporation duly
         organized and validly





                                       8

         existing in good standing in the jurisdiction of its incorporation,
         with full corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its
         properties and to conduct its business as described in the
         Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendment or
         supplement thereto), and is duly registered and qualified to conduct
         its business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the
         nature of its properties or the conduct of its business requires such
         registration or qualification, except where the failure so to register
         or qualify does not have a Material Adverse Effect.  All the
         outstanding shares of capital stock of each of the Subsidiaries have
         been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and
         nonassessable, and, as of the Closing Date, will be owned by the
         Company directly or indirectly through one of the other Subsidiaries,
         free and clear of any lien, adverse claim, security interest, equity
         or other encumbrance (other than encumbrances imposed pursuant to the
         Credit Agreement and the GHALP Lease, each as defined in the
         Prospectus).

                 (f)  There are no legal or governmental proceedings pending
         or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against the Company
         or any of its Subsidiaries or to which any of their respective
         properties is subject that are material to the Company and its
         subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that are required to be described in
         the Registration Statement or the Prospectus but are not described as
         required, and there are no agreements, contracts, indentures, leases
         or other instruments that are required to be described in the
         Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as an exhibit
         to the Registration Statement that are not described or filed as
         required by the Act or the Exchange Act.  The descriptions of the
         terms of any such contracts or documents contained in the Registration
         Statement or the Prospectus are correct in all material respects.

                 (g)  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in (i)
         violation of its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws,
         or other organizational documents, (ii) in violation of any law,
         ordinance, administrative or governmental rule or regulation
         applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of any decree
         of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over
         the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (except where any such
         violation or violations in the aggregate would not have a Material
         Adverse Effect), or (iii) in default in the performance of any
         obligation, agreement or condition contained in any bond, debenture,
         note or

         any other evidence of indebtedness or in any material agreement,
         indenture, lease or other instrument to which the Company or any of
         its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or any of their
         respective properties may be bound, and no condition or state of facts
         exists that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both,
         would constitute such a default (except where any such default or
         defaults, singly or in the aggregate, in the aggregate would not have
         a Material Adverse Effect).

                 (h)  None of the issuance or sale of the Notes, the execution,
         delivery, or performance of this Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes
         by the Company or the execution or delivery of, or the performance by

         under the Act and the Trust Indenture Act and compliance with the
         securities or Blue Sky laws or real estate syndication laws of various
         jurisdictions, all of which have been or will be effected in
         accordance with this Agreement, or as may be required subsequent to
         the date hereof to give effect to the transactions comprising the
         Formation, all of which will be effected in a timely manner in
         connection with the Formation), or conflicts or will conflict with or

         certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws or other
         organizational documents of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or
         any of the Roll-Up Entities (ii) conflicts or will conflict with or
         constitutes or will constitute a breach of or a default under any
         agreement, indenture, lease or other instrument to which the Company,
         any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Roll-Up Entities is a party or
         by which any of them or any of their respective properties may be

         waivers or consents have been obtained), or violates or will violate
         any statute, law, regulation or filing or judgment, injunction, order
         or decree applicable to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any of

         which any of the property or assets of any of them is subject, in each
         case except for such conflicts, breaches, defaults, violations, or
         encumbrances that would not singly or in the aggregate have a Material
         Adverse Effect or materially adversely affect the ability of the
         Company or any of the Roll-Up Entities to fulfill its obligations
         hereunder or thereunder.

                 (i)  The accountants, Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P., who have
         certified or shall certify the financial statements included in the

         Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendment or
         supplement thereto) comply as to form in all material respects with
         the requirements of the Act; such historical financial statements,
         together with related schedules and notes, present fairly the
         consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and
         changes in stockholders' equity or partners' equity, as the case may
         be, of the entities to which they relate on the basis stated in the
         Registration Statement at the respective dates or for the respective
         periods to which they apply; such statements and related schedules and
         notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles consistently applied throughout the periods
         involved, except as disclosed therein; such pro forma financial
         statements, together with related notes, have been prepared on a basis
         consistent with such historical statements, except for pro forma
         adjustments specified therein, and give effect to assumptions made on
         a reasonable basis and present fairly the historical and proposed
         transactions contemplated by the Prospectus; and the other financial
         and statistical information and data included in the Registration
         Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendment or supplement
         thereto), historical and pro forma, are accurately presented and
         prepared on a basis consistent with such financial statements and the
         books and records of the entity to which they relate.

                 (k)  The execution and delivery of, and the performance by the
         Company of its obligations under, this Agreement have been duly and

         executed

         and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and legally
         binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
         accordance with its terms, except (i) the enforceability hereof may be
         limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
         similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights
         generally, (ii) the remedy of specific performance and other forms of
         equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses and to
         the discretion of the court before which the proceedings may be
         brought and (iii) rights to indemnity and contribution hereunder may
         be limited by federal or state securities laws or the public policy
         underlying such laws.

                 (l)   The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust
         Indenture Act.  The execution and delivery of, and the performance by
         the Company of its obligations under, the Indenture have been duly and
         validly authorized by the Company, and the Indenture has been duly
         executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and
         legally binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the
         Company in accordance with its terms, except (i) the enforceability
         thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating
         to creditors' rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific
         performance and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to
         certain equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before

                 (m)   The Notes have been duly authorized and validly
         issued by the Company, and when the Notes are executed and
         authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and
         delivered to you against payment therefor in accordance with the terms
         of this Agreement, the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of the
         Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding agreements of
         the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their
         terms, except (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
         laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights
         generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and other forms
         of equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses and

         Guarantors, and when the Notes are executed and authenticated in
         accordance with the Indenture and delivered to you against payment
         therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Notes
         will be entitled to the benefit of the Subsidiary Guarantees, and the
         Subsidiary Guarantees will constitute valid and legally binding
         agreements of each of the Guarantors, enforceable against each of the
         Guarantors in accordance with their terms set forth in the Indenture,
         except (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
         insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other

         will be duly executed and delivered by the Company and, as applicable,
         the Roll-Up Entities on or prior to the Closing Date and each
         Transaction Document will constitute the legally valid and binding
         agreement of the Company and the Roll-Up Entities enforceable against
         the Company and the Roll-Up Entities in accordance with its terms,
         except (i) the enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar

                 (p)   Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement and the
         Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), subsequent to the
         respective dates as of which such information is given in the
         Registration Statement and the Prospectus (or any amendment or
         supplement thereto), neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
         has incurred any liability or obligation, direct or contingent, or
         entered into any transaction, not in the ordinary course of business,
         that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
         whole, and there has not been any change in the capital stock, or
         material increase in the short-term debt or long-term debt, of the
         Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any material





                                       13
<PAGE>   14
         adverse change or any development involving a prospective material
         adverse change, in the condition (financial or other), business,
         properties, net worth or results of operations of the Company and its
         subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

                 (q)   Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has (i) good
         and marketable title in fee simple to all real property described in
         the Prospectus as owned by it and (ii) good and marketable title to
         all personal property described in the Prospectus as owned by it,
         which personal property is material to the business of the Company and
         its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, free and clear of all liens,
         claims, security interests or other encumbrances, except such as are
         described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in a
         document filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.  All the
         property described in the Prospectus as being held under lease by each
         of the Company and its Subsidiaries is held by it under valid,
         subsisting and enforceable leases (although no representation is made
         as to the lessors' title to such property).  Each agreement to which
         the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) is a party that
         provides for the management or operation of a hotel property described
         in either Prospectus as managed or operated by the Company is in full
         force and effect and constitutes the valid and legally binding
         agreement of the parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with its
         terms, except (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar
         laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights
         generally, (ii) the remedy of specific performance and other forms of
         equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses and to
         the discretion of the court before which the proceedings may be
         brought and (iii) rights to indemnity and contribution thereunder may
         be limited by applicable law.

                 (r)   The Company has not distributed and, prior to the later
         to occur of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) completion of the
         distribution of the Notes, will not distribute any offering material
         in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes other than the
         Registration Statement, the Prepricing Prospectus, the Prospectus or
         other materials, if any, permitted by the Act.

                 (s)   The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has such
         permits, licenses, franchises and authorizations of governmental or
         regulatory authorities ("Permits") as are necessary to own its
         respective properties and





                                       14
<PAGE>   15
         to conduct its business in the manner described in the Prospectus,
         subject to such qualifications as may be set forth in the Prospectus
         and except where the failure to have any Permit would not have a
         Material Adverse Effect; the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has
         fulfilled and performed all its obligations with respect to such
         Permits and no event has occurred that allows, or after notice or
         lapse of time would allow, revocation or termination thereof or
         results in any other impairment of the rights of the holder of any
         such Permit, subject in each case to such qualification as may be set
         forth in the Prospectus, and except where the failure to so fulfill or
         perform its obligation or such revocation or termination would not
         have a Material Adverse Effect; and, except as described in the
         Prospectus, none of such Permits contains any restriction that is
         materially burdensome to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

                 (t)  The Company maintains a system of internal accounting
         controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i)
         transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or
         specific authorization; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to
         permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain
         accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
         accordance with management's general or specific authorization; and
         (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing
         assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
         respect to any differences.

                 (u)  To the Company's knowledge, neither the Company nor
         any of its Subsidiaries nor any employee or agent of the Company or
         any Subsidiary has made any payment of funds of the Company or any
         Subsidiary or received or retained any funds in violation of any law,
         rule or regulation, which payment, receipt or retention of funds is of
         a character required to be disclosed in the Prospectus.

                 (v)  With respect to any Existing Entity (as defined in
         the Formation Agreement) that is a partnership, for the period of its
         existence, such entity has been properly classified as a partnership
         for federal income tax purposes.  With respect to any such Existing
         Entity that has elected to be treated as a S corporation for federal
         income tax purposes, such corporation has made a valid S corporation
         election under Section 1362 of the Code and has at all times during
         the period of its existence (through the





                                       15
<PAGE>   16
         Effective Time) satisfied the eligibility criteria under the Code for
         such treatment.  Each of the Existing Entities has paid all income
         taxes to which it is subject, except where the failure to so pay would
         not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                 (w)  The representations and warranties of the Company in
         the Transaction Documents are, and on the Closing Date will be, true
         and correct.

                 (x)  Except as described in the Prospectus, no holder of any
         security of the Company has any right to require registration of any
         security of the Company because of the filing of the registration
         statement or consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or otherwise.

                 (y)  The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any
         action designed to or that might reasonably be expected to cause or
         result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common
         Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Notes, except as
         provided in Section 5(l) hereof.

                 (z)  As of the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries
         will own or possess all patents, trademarks, trademark registrations,
         service marks, service mark registrations, trade names, copyrights,
         licenses, inventions, trade secrets and rights described in the
         Prospectus as being owned by them or any of them or necessary for the
         conduct of their respective businesses, except where the lack of such
         ownership or possession would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and,
         except as disclosed in the Prospectus, the Company is not aware of any
         claim to the contrary or any challenge by any other person to the
         rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to the
         foregoing.

                 (aa) The Company is not now and, after sale of the Notes and
         application of the net proceeds from such sale as described in the
         Prospectus under the caption "Use of Proceeds", will not be an
         "investment company" required to be registered under Section 8 of the
         Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company
         Act"), or an entity "controlled by an investment company" required to
         be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.

                 (bb) The Company has complied with all provisions of Florida
         Statutes, Section 517.075, relating to issuers doing business with
         Cuba.





                                       16
<PAGE>   17
                 (cc)  Except as disclosed in the Prospectus, the Company and
         its Subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with any and all applicable
         foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the
         protection of human health and safety, the environment or hazardous or
         toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants ("Environmental
         Laws"), (ii) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals
         required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their
         respective businesses and (iii) are in compliance with all terms and
         conditions of any such permit, license or approval, except where such
         noncompliance with Environmental Laws, failure to receive required
         permits, licenses or other approvals or failure to comply with the
         terms and conditions of such permits, licenses or approvals would not,
         singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                 (dd)  The Company has reasonably concluded that costs and
         liabilities associated with the effect of Environmental Laws on the
         business, operations and properties of the Company and its
         subsidiaries would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material
         Adverse Effect.

                 (ee)  The management and operation of the hotel properties
         owned, leased or managed by the Company are not in violation of any
         applicable building code, zoning ordinance or other law or regulation,
         except where such violation of any applicable building code, zoning
         ordinance or other law or regulation would not, singly or in the
         aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

                 (ff)  The Company is insured by insurers of recognized
         financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such
         amounts as are customary in the businesses in which the Company is
         engaged and proposes to engage and the Company has no reason to
         believe that it will not be able to renew such insurance coverage as
         and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from
         similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a
         cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

                 (gg)  As of the Closing Date, the Formation shall have been
         consummated as set forth in the Prospectus.

         untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
         fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements

         omissions from the registration statement or the Prospectus made in
         reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any
         Underwriter furnished to CF Securities in writing by a Underwriter
         through the Representatives expressly for use therein.

         8.      INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.  (a) The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each of you and each other Underwriter and each
person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15
of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs
of investigation) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prepricing Prospectus or
in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a





                                       19
<PAGE>   20
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
omission or alleged untrue statement or omission that has been made therein or
omitted therefrom in reliance upon and in conformity with the information
relating to such Underwriter furnished in writing to the Company by or on
behalf of any Underwriter through you expressly for use in connection
therewith; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this
paragraph (a) with respect to any Prepricing Prospectus shall not inure to the
benefit of any Underwriter (or to the benefit of any person controlling such
Underwriter) on account of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense
arising from the sale of the Notes by such Underwriter to any person if a copy
of the Prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent to such person within
the time required by the Act, and the untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in such
Prepricing Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus, provided that the
Company has delivered the Prospectus to the several Underwriters, no later than
2:00 P.M., New York city time, on the business day following the date hereof,
in such quantity as the Underwriters shall have reasonably requested.

         (b)     CF Securities agrees that, in the event any Underwriter or any
person controlling any Underwriter shall obtain a judicial judgment, order or
decree against the Company for amounts payable by the Company to such
Underwriter or controlling person pursuant to this Section 8 (whether for
indemnification or contribution), which judgment has been and remains unstayed,
unsatisfied and undischarged for a period of 60 days or more, then CF
Securities shall promptly, upon the request of such Underwriter or controlling
person, pay to such Underwriter or controlling person an amount equal to the
amount payable by the Company to such Underwriter or controlling person
pursuant to such judgment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate
liability of CF Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited to an
amount equal to the aggregate amount of cash received by the Founders pursuant
to the Transaction Documents.

         (c)     If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any
Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter in respect of which
indemnity may be sought against the Company, such Underwriter or such
controlling person shall promptly notify the Company and CF Securities, and the
Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel
and payment of all fees and expenses, provided that in the event the Company
fails to so





                                       20
<PAGE>   21
assume such defense, CF Securities may so assume such defense.  Such
Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action, suit or proceeding and to participate in
the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person unless (i) the Company
or CF Securities, as the case may be, has agreed in writing to pay such fees
and expenses, (ii) the Company and CF Securities failed to assume the defense
and employ counsel, or (iii) the named parties to any such action, suit or
proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Underwriter or
such controlling person and the Company and such Underwriter or such
controlling person shall have been advised by its counsel that representation
of such indemnified party and the Company by the same counsel would be
inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (whether or
not such representation by the same counsel has been proposed) due to actual or
potential differing interests between them (in which case neither the Company
nor CF Securities shall have the right to assume the defense of such action,
suit or proceeding on behalf of such Underwriter or such controlling person).
It is understood, however, that the Company or CF Securities, as the case may
be, shall, in connection with any one such action, suit or proceeding or
separate but substantially similar or related actions, suits or proceedings in
the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one
separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for
all such Underwriters and controlling persons not having actual or potential
differing interests with you or among themselves, which firm shall be
designated in writing by Smith Barney Inc., and that all such fees and expenses
shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.  Neither the Company nor CF
Securities shall be liable for any settlement of any such action, suit or
proceeding effected without their written consent, but if settled with such
written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such
action, suit or proceeding, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
any Underwriter, to the extent provided in paragraph (a) above, and any such
controlling person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense by reason of such settlement or judgment.

         (d)     Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who sign
the Registration Statement, and any person who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same
extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but
only with respect to information relating to such Underwriter furnished in





                                       21
<PAGE>   22
writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through you expressly for use in
the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Prepricing Prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto.  If any action, suit or proceeding shall be
brought against the Company, any of its directors, any such officer any such
controlling person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any
Prepricing Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and in respect
of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to this
paragraph (d), such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the
Company by paragraph (c) above (except that if the Company shall have assumed
the defense thereof such Underwriter shall not be required to do so, but may
employ separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter's expense), and
the Company, its directors, any such officer, any such controlling person shall
have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by paragraph (c) above.

         (e)     If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraphs (a) or (d) hereof in
respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
therein, then an indemnifying party (which for purposes of this paragraph (e)
shall not include CF Securities, the obligations of which with respect to
contribution are set forth in paragraph (b) hereof), in lieu of indemnifying or
paying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other hand from the offering of the Notes (including the application of
the proceeds therefrom as described in the Prospectus), or (ii) if the
allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on
the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the
statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand
and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same
proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting
expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and
commissions received by the Underwriters, each as set forth in the table on the
cover page of the Prospectus.  The relative fault of the Company on the one
hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference
to, among other





                                       22
<PAGE>   23
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company on the one hand or by the Underwriters on
the other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

         (f)     The Company, CF Securities and the Underwriters agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were
determined by a pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as
one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not
take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (e)
above.  The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in paragraph (e)
above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above,
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating any claim or defending any such action, suit or
proceeding.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Underwriter
shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price of the Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public
exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.  The Underwriters' obligations to contribute pursuant to
this Section 8 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of
Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto (or such principal
amounts of Notes increased as set forth in Section 11 hereof) and not joint.

         (g)     No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent
of each indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or
could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of
such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter
of such action, suit or proceeding.

         (h)     Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which
an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this
Section 8 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party





                                       23
<PAGE>   24
as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred.  The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 and the
representations and warranties of the Company and CF Securities set forth in
this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless
of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person
controlling any Underwriter, the Company, its directors or officers or any
person controlling the Company, CF Securities or any Founder, (ii) acceptance
of any Notes and payment therefor hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this
Agreement, provided that the representations and warranties of CF Securities
set forth in this Agreement shall terminate on the date one year following the
Closing Date.  A successor to any Underwriter or any person controlling any
Underwriter, or to the Company, its directors or officers, or any person
controlling the Company shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity,
contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section 8.

         9.      CONDITIONS OF UNDERWRITERS' OBLIGATIONS.  The several
obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Notes hereunder are subject to
the following conditions:

                 (a)  If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
         it is necessary for the registration statement or a post-effective
         amendment thereto to be declared effective before the offering of the
         Notes may commence, the registration statement or such post-effective
         amendment shall have become effective not later than 10:00 P.M., New
         York City time, on the date hereof, or at such later date and time as
         shall be consented to in writing by you, and all filings, if any,
         required by Rules 424 and 430A under the Act shall have been timely
         made; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration
         statement shall have been issued and no proceeding for that purpose
         shall have been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Company or any
         Underwriter, threatened by the Commission, and any request of the
         Commission for additional information (to be included in the
         Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise) shall have been
         complied with to your satisfaction.

                 (b)  Subsequent to the effective date of this Agreement, there
         shall not have occurred (i) any downgrading or any notice of any
         intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a possible
         change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change in
         the rating accorded any of the Company's securities by any "nationally
         recognized statistical rating organization," as such term is defined
         for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Act, (ii) any change, or any





                                       24
<PAGE>   25
         development that is reasonably likely to result in a prospective
         change, in or affecting the condition (financial or other), business,
         properties, net worth or results of  operations of the Company and its
         subsidiaries, taken as a whole, not contemplated by the Prospectus
         that, in your opinion, as Representatives of the several Underwriters,
         would materially adversely affect the market for the Notes, or (iii)
         any event or development relating to or involving the Company or any
         officer or director of the Company that makes any statement made in
         the Prospectus untrue in any material respect or that, in the opinion
         of the Company and its counsel or the Underwriters and their counsel,
         requires the making of any addition to or change in the Prospectus in
         order to state a material fact required by the Act or any other law to
         be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
         therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
         not misleading, if amending or supplementing such Prospectus to
         reflect such event or development would, in your opinion, as
         Representatives of the several Underwriters, materially adversely
         affect the market for the Notes.

                 (c)   You shall have received on the Closing Date an
         opinion of Locke Purnell Rain Harrell, counsel for the Company, dated
         the Closing Date and addressed to you, as Representatives of the
         several Underwriters, to the effect that:

                          (i)  The Company is a corporation duly incorporated
                 and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the
                 State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to
                 own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its
                 business as described in the Registration Statement and the
                 Prospectus and is duly qualified and in good standing in all
                 other jurisdictions in which the nature of the business
                 transacted or property owned or leased by it makes such
                 qualification necessary, except where the failure so to
                 qualify or be in good standing would not have a Material
                 Adverse Effect;

                          (ii)  The Notes (A) have been duly authorized and (B)
                 when issued and executed and authenticated in accordance with
                 the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to you in
                 accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be entitled
                 to the benefits of the Indenture, and will constitute valid
                 and legally binding agreements of the Company in accordance
                 with their terms (provided that, for purposes of such opinion,
                 such counsel





                                       25
<PAGE>   26
                 may assume that the applicable law chosen by the parties to
                 govern the Notes is the same as applicable Texas law), except
                 (i) the enforceability hereof thereof may be limited by
                 bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
                 similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors'
                 rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance
                 and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to certain
                 equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before
                 which the proceedings may be brought;

                          (iii)  The Subsidiary Guarantees have been duly
                 authorized and validly issued by each of the Guarantors, and
                 when the Notes are executed and authenticated in accordance
                 with the Indenture and delivered to you in accordance with the
                 terms of this Agreement, the Notes will be entitled to the
                 benefits of the Subsidiary Guarantees, and the Subsidiary
                 Guarantees will constitute valid and legally binding
                 agreements of each of the Guarantors in accordance with their
                 terms set forth in the Indenture (provided that, for purposes
                 of such opinion, such counsel may assume that the applicable
                 law chosen by the parties to govern the Subsidiary Guarantees
                 is the same as applicable Texas law), except (i) the
                 enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
                 insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium
                 or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to
                 creditors' rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific
                 performance and other forms of equitable relief may be subject
                 to certain equitable defenses and to the discretion of the
                 court before which the proceedings may be brought

                          (iv)  The Registration Statement and all
                 post-effective amendments, if any, have become effective under
                 the Act and, to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop
                 order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
                 Statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor are
                 pending before or contemplated by the Commission; and any
                 required filing of the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) or
                 Rule 434 has been made in accordance with Rule 424(b) and Rule
                 430A under the Act;

                          (v)  The Company has the corporate power and
                 authority to enter into this Agreement and to issue, sell and
                 deliver the Notes to the Underwriters as provided herein, and
                 this





                                       26
<PAGE>   27
                 Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by
                 the Company and is a legal, valid and binding agreement of the
                 Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with
                 its terms (provided that, for purposes of such opinion, such
                 counsel may assume that the applicable law governing this
                 Agreement is the same as applicable Texas law), except that
                 (A) enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
                 reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or
                 hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights generally,
                 (B) the remedy of specific performance and other forms of
                 equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses
                 and to the discretion of the court before which the
                 proceedings may be brought and (C) rights to indemnity and
                 contribution hereunder may be limited by federal or state
                 securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws;

                          (vi)  The Indenture has been duly qualified under the
                 Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and the Company has
                 the corporate power and authority to enter into the Indenture,
                 and the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and
                 delivered by the Company and is a legal, valid and binding
                 agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
                 accordance with its terms (provided that, for purposes of such
                 opinion, such counsel may assume that the applicable law
                 chosen by the parties to govern the Indenture is the same as
                 applicable Texas law), except that (A) enforceability thereof
                 may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
                 moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
                 relating to creditors' rights generally and (B) the remedy of
                 specific performance and other forms of equitable relief may
                 be subject to certain equitable defenses and to the discretion
                 of the court before which the proceedings may be brought;

                          (vii)  The Notes and the Indenture conform in all
                 material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the
                 Registration Statement and the Prospectus under the heading
                 "Description of the Notes";

                          (viii)  The Company and each of the Roll-Up Entities
                 has the necessary power and authority to enter into each of
                 the Transaction Documents, and each of the Transaction
                 Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by
                 the Company and, as applicable, the Roll-Up Entities, and each





                                       27
<PAGE>   28
                 of the Transaction Documents is a legally valid and binding
                 agreement of the Company and, as applicable, the Roll-Up
                 Entities, enforceable against the Company and, as applicable,
                 the Roll-Up Entities, in accordance with its terms (provided
                 that, for purposes of such opinion, such counsel may assume
                 that the applicable law governing each of the Transaction
                 Documents is the same as applicable Texas law), except that
                 (A) enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
                 reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or
                 hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights generally
                 and (B) the remedy of specific performance and other forms of
                 equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses
                 and to the discretion of the court before which the
                 proceedings may be brought;

                          (ix)  To the best knowledge of such counsel, neither
                 the issuance, sale or delivery of the Notes, nor the
                 execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, the
                 Indenture or the Transaction Documents, or compliance by the
                 Company or any of the Roll-Up Entities with all provisions of
                 this Agreement, the Indenture or the Transaction Documents,
                 nor consummation by the Company or any of the Roll-Up Entities
                 of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby conflicts
                 or will conflict with or constitutes or will constitute a
                 breach of, or a default under, the certificate of
                 incorporation or by-laws or other organizational documents of
                 the Company or any of the Roll-Up Entities or any agreement,
                 indenture, lease or other instrument identified on a
                 certificate, substantially in the form of Annex A hereto,
                 executed by an executive officer of the Company, or will
                 result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
                 encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any
                 of its Subsidiaries under any such agreement, indenture, lease
                 or other instrument, nor will any such action result in any
                 violation of any existing law, regulation, ruling (assuming
                 compliance with all applicable state securities and Blue Sky
                 laws), judgment, injunction, order or decree known to such
                 counsel, and applicable to the Company, any of its
                 Subsidiaries or any of the Roll-Up Entities or any of their
                 respective properties, in each case except for such conflicts,
                 breaches, defaults, violation, or encumbrances that would not
                 singly or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect or
                 materially adversely affect the ability of the

                 obligations hereunder or thereunder;

                          (x)  No consent, approval, authorization or   order
                 of, or registration or filing with, any court, regulatory
                 body, administrative agency or other governmental agency, body

                 or the Roll-Up Entities for the valid issuance and sale of the
                 Notes pursuant to this Agreement or the Indenture or, except
                 where the failure to obtain any such consent, approval,
                 authorization, order or registration or to make such filing
                 would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
                 Effect, the consummation of the Formation, except in any case
                 such as have been obtained under the Act and the Trust
                 Indenture Act or such as may be required under state
                 securities or Blue Sky laws or real estate syndication laws
                 governing the purchase and distribution of the Notes;

                          (xi) The Registration Statement and the Prospectus
                 (except for the financial statements, schedules and notes
                 thereto and other financial and statistical data included
                 therein, as to which such counsel need not express an opinion)
                 comply as to form in all material respects with the
                 requirements of the Act;

                          (xii)  To the best knowledge of such counsel (A)
                 other than as described or contemplated in the Prospectus,
                 there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending or
                 threatened against the Company that are material to the
                 Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or to which
                 the Company, or any of its properties, is subject that are
                 material to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
                 whole, that are required to be described in the Registration
                 Statement or the Prospectus and (B) there are no agreements,
                 contracts, indentures, leases or other instruments relating to
                 the Company, of a character that are required to be described
                 in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed
                 as an exhibit to the Registration Statement that are not
                 described or filed as required, as the case may be;

                          (xiii)  The statements under the headings "The
                 Formation and the Financing Plan", "Description of the
                 Revolving Credit Agreement", "Description of the Notes" and
                 "Description of Capital Stock" in the Prospectus and in the

                 Registration Statement in Items 14 and 15, insofar as such
                 statements constitute a summary of legal matters, documents or
                 proceedings referred to therein, fairly present the
                 information called for with respect to such legal matters,
                 documents and proceedings and fairly summarize the matters
                 referred to therein;

                          (xiv)  The Company is not now and, after sale of the
                 Notes and application of the net proceeds from such sale as
                 described in the Prospectus under the caption "Use of
                 Proceeds", will not be an "investment company" required to be
                 registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of
                 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act");

                          (xv)  Each of the Subsidiaries of the Company (other
                 than Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (Aruba) N.V., an Aruban company,
                 with respect to which such counsel need not express an
                 opinion) has been duly incorporated and is validly existing in
                 good standing in the jurisdiction of its incorporation, with
                 full corporate power and authority to own, lease, and operate
                 its properties and to conduct its business as described in the
                 Registration Statement and the Prospectus (and any amendment
                 or supplement thereto); and all the outstanding shares of
                 capital stock of each of the Subsidiaries of the Company
                 (other than Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (Aruba) N.V., an Aruban
                 company, with respect to which such counsel need not express
                 an opinion) have been duly authorized and validly issued, are
                 fully paid and nonassessable, and, except as otherwise
                 disclosed in the Prospectus, all of the outstanding shares of
                 capital stock of each of the Subsidiaries of the Company are
                 owned by the Company directly, or indirectly through one of
                 the other Subsidiaries, free and clear of any lien, adverse
                 claim, security interest, equity or other encumbrance;

                          (xvi)  To the best knowledge of such counsel, neither
                 the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (other than Wyndham
                 Hotels & Resorts (Aruba) N.V., an Aruban company, with respect
                 to which such counsel need not express an opinion) is (A) in
                 violation of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws, or
                 other organizational documents or (B) in default in the
                 performance of any material obligation, agreement or condition
                 contained in any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of
                 indebtedness identified on a certificate substantially in the
                 form of Annex A hereto,





                                       30

                 executed by an executive officer of the Company, except as may
                 be disclosed in the Prospectus or where any such default or
                 defaults in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse
                 Effect;

                          (xvii)  To the best knowledge of such counsel, (A)
                 neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in material
                 violation of any law, ordinance, administrative or
                 governmental rule or regulation applicable to the Company or
                 any of its Subsidiaries or of any decree of any court or
                 governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the
                 Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such violation
                 or violations which in the aggregate would not have a Material
                 Adverse Effect, and (B) the Company and each of its
                 Subsidiaries has such Permits as are necessary to own its
                 respective properties and to conduct its business in the
                 manner described in the Prospectus, except where the failure
                 to have any such Permit would not have a Material Adverse
                 Effect;

                          (xviii)  To the best knowledge of such counsel, there
                 is no current, pending or threatened action, suit or
                 proceeding before any court or governmental agency, authority
                 or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its
                 respective properties of a character required to be described
                 in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any
                 amendment or supplement thereto) that is not adequately so
                 described; and

                          (xix)  To the best knowledge of such counsel, except
                 as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus,
                 there is no holder of any security of the Company or any other
                 person who has the right, contractual or otherwise, to cause
                 the Company to sell or otherwise issue to them, or to permit
                 them to underwrite the sale of, the Notes or the right to have
                 any securities of the Company included in the registration
                 statement or the right, as a result of the filing of the
                 registration statement, to require registration under the Act
                 of any securities of the Company.

                 In addition, such counsel shall state that although such
         counsel has not undertaken, except as otherwise indicated in their
         opinion, to determine independently, and does not assume any
         responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the
         statements in the Registration Statement and the





                                       31
<PAGE>   32
         Prospectus, such counsel has participated in the preparation of the
         Registration Statement and Prospectus including general review and
         discussion of the contents thereof but has made no independent check
         or verification thereof (relying as to materiality to a large extent
         upon the statements of officers and other representatives of the
         Company), and such counsel has no reason to believe that the
         Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein, at the
         time such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment
         became effective, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or
         omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
         necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the
         Prospectus as of their respective dates or as of the Closing Date
         contained or contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
         omitted or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
         or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
         the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; it being
         understood that such counsel need express no statement with respect to
         the financial statements, schedules and other financial and
         statistical data included in the Registration Statement or the
         Prospectus.

                 In rendering its opinion as aforesaid, such counsel may, as to
         factual matters, rely upon written certificates or statements of
         officers of the Company and its subsidiaries, each dated the Closing
         Date, and may state that such counsel expresses no opinion as to the
         law of any jurisdiction other than the United States, the State of
         Texas or the corporation law of the State of Delaware.
         Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to matters of Jamaican
         law, the Company shall deliver to you, as Representatives of the
         several U.S. Underwriters, an opinion of Jamaican counsel retained by
         the Company, provided that (1) such local counsel is acceptable to the
         Representatives, (2) such opinion is in form and substance
         satisfactory to them and their counsel and (3) Locke Purnell Rain
         Harrell shall state in their opinion that they believe that the
         Underwriters are justified in relying on such opinion of Jamaican
         counsel.

                 (d)  You shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of
         Davis Polk & Wardwell, counsel for the Underwriters, dated the Closing
         Date, with respect to the matters referred to in clauses (ii)(A),
         (iv), (xiii), (xiv) (but only with respect to the statements in the
         Prospectus under the headings "Description of the Notes", "Description
         of Capital Stock" and "Underwriting") and the paragraph immediately
         following





                                       32
<PAGE>   33
         clause (xiv) of subsection (c) above and such other related matters 
         as you may request.

                 (e)  You shall have received letters addressed to you, as
         Representatives of the several Underwriters, and dated the date hereof
         and the Closing Date from Coopers & Lybrand, independent certified
         public accountants, substantially in the forms heretofore approved by
         you.

                 (f)(i)  No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
         Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for
         that purpose shall have been taken or, to the knowledge of the
         Company, shall be contemplated by the Commission at or prior to the
         Closing Date; (ii) there shall not have been any material change in
         the capital stock of the Company nor any material increase in the
         short-term or long-term debt of the Company (other than in the
         ordinary course of business) from that set forth or contemplated in
         the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; (iii) there shall not
         have been, since the respective dates as of which information is given
         in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except as may
         otherwise be stated in the Registration Statement and Prospectus (or
         any amendment or supplement thereto), any material adverse change, or
         any development reasonably likely to result in a prospective material
         adverse change, in the condition (financial or other), business,
         properties, net worth or results of operations of the Company and its
         subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (iv) all the representations and
         warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement shall be true
         and correct on and as of the date hereof and on and as of the Closing
         Date as if made on and as of the Closing Date, and you shall have
         received a certificate, dated the Closing Date and signed by the chief
         executive officer and the chief financial officer of the Company (or
         such other officers as are acceptable to you), to the effect set forth
         in this Section 9(f) and in Sections 9(g) and 9(i) hereof.

                 (g)  The Company shall not have failed at or prior to the
         Closing Date to have performed or complied with any of its agreements
         herein contained and required to be performed or complied with by it
         hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date.

                 (h)  The consummation of the Formation and receipt by the
         Company of the proceeds of the Financing Plan (including, without
         limitation, the Concurrent Equity Offering) shall have occurred prior
         to or shall occur simultaneously with the closing hereunder.





                                       33
<PAGE>   34
                 (i)  The Company shall have furnished or caused to be
         furnished to you such further certificates and documents as you shall
         have requested.

                 All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents
will be in compliance with the provisions hereof only if they are satisfactory
in form and substance to you and your counsel.

                 Any certificate or document signed by any officer of the
Company and delivered to you, as Representatives of the Underwriters, or to
counsel for the Underwriters, shall be deemed a representation and warranty by
the Company to each Underwriter as to the statements made therein.

         10.     EXPENSES.  The Company agrees to pay the following costs and
expenses and all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by it of

(including the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the

<PAGE>   35
and the fees and expenses of counsel (including local and special counsel) for
the Company.

         11.     EFFECTIVE DATE OF AGREEMENT.  This Agreement shall become
effective: (i) upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto; or
(ii) if, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered, it is necessary
for the registration statement or a post-effective amendment thereto to be
declared effective before the offering of the Notes may commence, when
notification of the effectiveness of the registration statement or such
post-effective amendment has been released by the Commission.  Until such time
as this Agreement shall have become effective, it may be terminated by the
Company, by notifying you, or by you, as Representatives of the several
Underwriters, by notifying the Company.

                 If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to
purchase Notes that it or they are obligated to purchase hereunder on the
Closing Date, and the aggregate principal amount of Notes that such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters are obligated but fail or refuse to purchase is not
more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that the
Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date, each non-defaulting
Underwriter shall be obligated, severally, in the proportion that the principal
amount of Notes set forth opposite its name in Schedule I hereto bears to the
aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite the names of all
non-defaulting Underwriters or in such other proportion as you may specify in
accordance with Section 20 of the Master Agreement Among Underwriters of Smith
Barney Inc., to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Underwriter or
Underwriters are obligated, but fail or refuse, to purchase.  If any one or
more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Notes that it or they
are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and the aggregate principal
amount of Notes with respect to which such default occurs is more than
one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that the Underwriters are
obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to you
and the Company for the purchase of such Notes by one or more non-defaulting
Underwriters or other party or parties approved by you and the Company are not
made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without
liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company.  In any
such case that does not result in termination of this Agreement, either you or
the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event
for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or
arrangements may be effected.  Any action taken under this paragraph shall not
relieve any defaulting





                                       35
<PAGE>   36
Underwriter from liability in respect of any such default of any such
Underwriter under this Agreement.  The term "Underwriter" as used in this
Agreement includes, for all purposes of this Agreement, any party not listed in
Schedule I hereto who, with your approval and the approval of the Company,
purchases Notes that a defaulting Underwriter is obligated, but fails or
refuses, to purchase.

                 Any notice under this Section 11 may be given by telegram,
telecopy or telephone but shall be subsequently confirmed by letter.

         12.     TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.  This Agreement shall be subject to
termination in your absolute discretion, without liability on the part of any
Underwriter to the Company, by notice to the Company if, prior to the Closing
Date (i) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the

Revenue Bonds 1985 Series (Overlook Inn Project) (the "Bonds"), issued pursuant
to a certain Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1985 (the "Indenture"), by
and between the Development Authority of Cobb County (the "Authority") and The
Citizens and Southern National Bank (predecessor to The Bank of New York), as

      2.2    [THIS SECTION 2.2 IS APPLICABLE TO A FINANCED PURCHASE PRICE ONLY]

Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company, in Liquidation (the "Guarantor"), the

             (a)    The Indenture, as defined in Section 2.1;

             (b)    Loan Agreement, dated as of October 1, 1985 (the "Loan
      Agreement"), between the Authority and Seller pertaining to the Bonds;

             (c)    Note, dated October 1, 1985, in the original principal
      amount of $9,675,000 made by Seller payable to the order of the
      Authority, and assigned by the Authority without recourse to the Trustee;

             (d)    Deed to Secure Debt from Seller to the Authority, The
      Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company ("MBLIC"), and the Trustee, dated
      as of October 1, 1985 (the "Deed to Secure Debt"), filed November 26,
      1985, recorded at Deed Book 3738, Page 1, Office of the Clerk of the
      Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia, as assigned by Memorandum of
      Assignment from the Authority to the Trustee, dated as of October 1,
      1985, recorded at Deed Book 3738, Page 56, Office of the Clerk of the
      Superior Court of Cobb County, Georgia;

             (e)    Agreement Regarding Interest and Charges dated November 26,

             (g)    all other agreements entered into by Seller in connection 
      with the Bonds.

      Purchaser and Seller hereby acknowledge that Seller's payment obligations
under the Loan Agreement were guaranteed pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement
dated as of October 1, 1985 made by MBLIC for the benefit of the Authority (the
"Guaranty"). Purchaser and Seller further acknowledge that due to the placement
of MBLIC in rehabilitation on July 16, 1991 and Seller's subsequent failure to
(i) substitute Alternate Security (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the
Guaranty, and (ii) prepay all outstanding principal and accrued interest under
the Note and the Loan Agreement, the Trustee declared an "Event of Default"
under the Indenture. Subsequent to the Trustee's declaration of such Event of
Default, the Bonds were not redeemed, the principal amount thereof continues to
be due and payable, and Seller has continued to make timely payment of all
interest due under the Note and the Loan Agreement and amounts in excess
thereof, as described in Section 8 of the Forbearance Agreement.

                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>   11
      Purchaser and Seller further acknowledge that Seller and the Trustee have
entered into a letter agreement dated October 30, 1995, wherein the Trustee has
evidenced its agreement that concurrently with the execution of this Contract
by Seller, the Trustee will enter into a Forbearance Agreement (the
"Forbearance Agreement"), the letter agreement and the form of Forbearance
Agreement approved by the Trustee being attached hereto as Exhibit "J".
Purchaser's obligation to perform in accordance with the terms and conditions
set forth in the Forbearance Agreement, including, without limitation, the
obligation to obtain the items referenced in clauses (i) and (ii) in the
paragraph immediately following, shall be secured by a Junior Deed to Secure
Debt, as such term is defined in the Forbearance Agreement, to be executed at
Closing by Purchaser in favor of Seller and the Guarantor, the form of which
Junior Deed to Secure Debt shall be acceptable to Seller, the Guarantor and the
Trustee.

      Upon Seller's acceptance of this Contract, Seller and, if requested by
Seller, Purchaser, shall use all reasonable commercial efforts to obtain,
without the payment of any fee, premium or penalty by Seller except for
Seller's attorneys' fees, (i) not later than ninety (90) days after the
Effective Date, but not later than the Closing, (A) the consents of the
Trustee, the Authority and the Guarantor to the sale of the Subject Properties
to Purchaser and to Purchaser's Assumption (the "Consents to Transfer"), and
(B) a release of Seller from all liability under the Bond Documents from and
after the Closing, and (ii) not later than nine (9) months after the Closing,
(A) a discharge of the Indenture, and (B) releases by the Authority and the
Trustee of Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty (the Consents to
Transfer and the item referenced in clause (ii) immediately preceding are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Consents"). Seller and Purchaser
agree in good faith to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the
Consents, and Purchaser agrees to take all such actions as may be required by
Seller which, in Seller's judgment, shall be necessary to obtain such Consents,
including, without limitation, Purchaser's execution of the Assumption
Agreement and providing to Seller information with regard to Purchaser's
proposed method of causing the discharge of the Indenture. Purchaser shall not
make, or permit its agents to make, any contact with the Trustee and the
Authority or their respective counsel without participation in such contact by
Seller or its agents, and shall cause the Assumption Agreement to be executed
by the parties thereto substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
"K". If, in Seller's reasonable judgment, Seller believes Purchaser is not in
good faith using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Consents, then
Seller may, at Purchaser's expense, take such actions as Seller deems necessary
to obtain the Consents without participation in such actions by Purchaser or
its agents. Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall provide the Consents to
the other promptly after receipt. If the Consents to Transfer are not obtained
within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, Seller shall have the right 
to (i) require Purchaser to pay

                                     - 5 -
<PAGE>   12
the Purchase Price in the form of a Cash Payment at the Closing, but only if
Purchaser has evidenced its intention to do so in Item 2(b) of the Cover Sheet
in the amount set forth therein, whereupon the Closing shall thereafter occur
in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.3 and 9.1(a) hereof; or (ii)
terminate this Contract, by written notice to Purchaser, in which event the
Escrow Agent (as such term is defined in Section 4.3) shall return the Earnest
Money to Purchaser, as the sole remedies of Seller and Purchaser, and such
parties shall have no further obligations, liabilities or responsibilities
hereunder, except as set forth in Section 6.1, 9.5(h) and Article 10 hereof and
the Confidentiality Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 2.2 shall be
deemed to waive or modify the terms of Article 11 hereof.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any period of time
granted to the parties hereto in this Section 2.2 in connection with obtaining
the Consents to Transfer may be extended for an additional thirty (30) days at
Seller's sole discretion if, in Seller's judgment, the action required or
permitted to be taken within such time period cannot be accomplished within
such period and Seller and Purchaser shall be diligently pursuing the
accomplishment of such action.

      2.3    [THIS SECTION 2.3 IS APPLICABLE TO A CASH PURCHASE PRICE ONLY.]
Cash Purchase Price. Upon Seller's acceptance of this Contract, Seller and
Purchaser shall obtain the execution and delivery by the Trustee, the Authority
and the Guarantor, as applicable, of the following not later than the Closing
(collectively, the "Discharge Documents"):

             (i)    evidence of the discharge and release of the lien of the
                    Indenture (the "Discharge");

             (ii)   the Note marked "Paid";

                    attached hereto as Exhibit "L" (the "Releases");

             (v)    a withdrawal of any and all claims based upon the Bond
                    Documents in connection with the placement of the Guarantor
                    in rehabilitation on July 16, 1991 pursuant to Section 9(a)
                    of the Forbearance Agreement; and

             (vi)   termination of any currently effective Financing
                    Statements.

Seller and, if requested by Seller, Purchaser, agree in good faith to use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Discharge Documents and Purchaser
agrees to take all such actions which, in Seller's judgment, shall be necessary
to obtain the Discharge Documents. If, in Seller's reasonable judgment, Seller
believes Purchaser is not in good faith using commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain the Discharge Documents, then Seller may, at Purchaser's expense,
take such actions as Seller deems necessary to obtain the Discharge Documents
without participation in such actions by Purchaser or its agents. The Discharge
Documents shall be obtained within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date,
and Seller's obligation to close the transaction contemplated hereby is
conditioned upon the Discharge Documents being obtained within such ninety (90)
day period. Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall notify the other in
writing of (i) its receipt of assurance from the Authority and the Trustee that
the Discharge Documents will be obtained by the Closing (the "Assurance"),
promptly after such receipt, or (ii) its determination that it will be unable
to receive the Assurance in accordance with reasonable commercial standards,
promptly after the date on which it has made such determination; or (iii)
refusal by the Trustee and/or the Authority and/or the Guarantor to authorize,
execute or deliver the Discharge Documents, promptly after obtaining knowledge
of such refusal. If, within such ninety (90) day period, either of the
circumstances referred to in clauses (ii) and (iii) immediately preceding shall
occur, then Seller shall have the right to (i) require Purchaser to pay the
Purchase Price in the form of the Assumption Payment at the Closing, but only
if the Purchaser has evidenced its intention to do so in Item 2(b) of the Cover
Sheet in the amount set forth therein, whereupon the Closing shall occur in
accordance with the terms of Sections 2.2 and 9.1(b) hereof; or (ii) terminate
this Contract, by written notice to Purchaser, in which event the Escrow Agent
shall return the Earnest Money to Purchaser, as the sole remedies of Seller and
Purchaser, and such parties shall have no further obligations, liabilities or
responsibilities hereunder, except as set forth in Section 6.1, 9.5(h) and
Article 10 hereof and the Confidentiality Agreement. Nothing contained in this
Section 2.3 shall be deemed to waive or modify the terms of Article 11 hereof.

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any period of time
granted to the parties hereto in this Section 2.3 in connection with obtaining
the Assurance may be extended for an additional thirty (30) days at Seller's
sole discretion, if in Seller's judgment, the action required or permitted to
be taken within such time period cannot be accomplished within such period and
Seller and Purchaser shall be diligently pursuing the accomplishment of such
action.

             (f)    The Bond Documents.

The items described in this Section 5.1 are hereinafter collectively referred

      5.2    Confidentiality. All of the Submission Items and any other reports,
documents or information given by Seller to Purchaser in connection herewith
shall be returned to Seller or kept in confidence by Purchaser pursuant to the

      5.3    Information.   As an essential inducement to Seller to sell the
Subject Properties to Purchaser on the favorable terms and conditions set forth
in this Contract, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that: (i) all documents,
materials, reports, studies and other information delivered or disclosed to
Purchaser by Seller or its representatives, including, without limitation,
Marfralis Corporation d/b/a Lively & Associates (the "Information") are being
provided to Purchaser for informational purposes only and only as an
accommodation to Purchaser; (ii) Seller has not made, is not making, and will
not make any representation, warranty or promise of any kind, express or
implied, concerning the accuracy or completeness of all or any part of the
Information; and (iii) any inaccuracy, incompleteness, or deficiency in any

shall not form the basis of any claims by Purchaser against Seller, its
employees, agents or assigns, such claims being expressly waived and
relinquished by Purchaser. Upon Purchaser's request, however, Seller will
consider waiving any conflicts of interest in the event Purchaser desires to
engage any such person or entity to prepare, author, compile or create any
documents, materials, reports, studies or other information directly for
Purchaser's benefit.

                                   ARTICLE 6

                              INSPECTION AND AUDIT

      6.1    Inspection Rights. Purchaser, its agents, employees, contractors
and representatives, have inspected and audited the Subject Properties pursuant
to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Purchaser shall indemnify,
defend, save and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims,
liens (including, without limitation, mechanic's and materialman's liens),
actions, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, damages or other liabilities,
including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and court costs, all as
incurred, arising out of the rights granted to Purchaser pursuant to the terms
of the Confidentiality Agreement. Purchaser, its agents, employees, contractors
and representatives, shall keep confidential any and all information, documents
and reports obtained or prepared by them relating to the Subject Properties in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. At
Seller's request, Purchaser shall furnish to Seller copies of all studies,
tests and surveys undertaken and completed in connection with such inspections
and, upon Seller's request therefor, certify same to Seller, at Seller's
expense.

      The terms of this Section 6.1 shall survive the Closing or the 
termination of this Contract.

      6.2    Condition of Subject Properties. Purchaser has accepted the
condition of the Subject Properties and Submission Items and Purchaser may not
hereafter terminate this Contract by reason of the condition of the Subject
Properties or Submission Items, except as expressly provided in this Contract.

                                   ARTICLE 7

                   DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION PRIOR TO THE CLOSING

      7.1    Damage or Destruction. Until Closing, the risk of loss or damage to
the Subject Properties by fire or other casualty is assumed by Seller, but
without any

                                   - 13 -
<PAGE>   20

obligation on the part of Seller to repair or replace any such loss or damage
unless Seller elects to do so as hereinafter provided. Seller shall notify
Purchaser of the occurrence of any such loss or damage to the Real Property and
the Improvements ("Seller's Notice") within ten (10) days after such occurrence
or by the Closing Date, whichever first occurs. If the estimated cost of
repair, replacement or restoration of such loss or damage (as defined in
Section 7.4 hereof) to the Real Property and the Improvements is equal to or in
excess of five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price, either party may upon notice
to the other, terminate this Contract, in which event this Contract shall be
terminated and of no further force or effect and no party hereto shall
thereafter have any further rights against, or obligations or liabilities to,
any other by reason of this Contract, except for Purchaser's liability pursuant
to Section 6.1, 9.5(h) and Article 10 hereof and the Confidentiality Agreement,
and any monies paid by Purchaser as Earnest Money shall be returned to
Purchaser and all insurance proceeds shall be paid to Seller. If Seller elects
to make such repairs and restorations, Seller's Notice shall set forth an
adjourned date for Closing; provided, however, whether or not Seller elects to
make such repairs and restorations, if the cost to repair, replace or restore
such loss or damage is equal to or in excess of five percent (5%) of the
Purchase Price, Purchaser shall have the following options: (i) to declare the
Contract canceled and of no further force or effect and to receive a refund of
all monies paid by Purchaser as Earnest Money, in which event no party shall
thereafter have any further rights against, or obligations or liabilities to,
any other by reason of this Contract, except for Purchaser's liability pursuant
to Section 6.1, 9.5(h) and Article 10 hereof and the Confidentiality Agreement,
or (ii) to complete the purchase in accordance with this Contract without
reduction of the Purchase Price; provided, however, if Seller carries hazard
insurance covering such loss or damage, Seller shall turn over to Purchaser at
the Closing the net proceeds actually collected by Seller under the provisions
of such hazard insurance policies, to the extent that they are attributable to
loss of or damage to the Real Property and the Improvements, less any sums
theretofore expended by Seller in repairing or replacing such loss or damage or
in collecting such proceeds.

      7.2    Purchaser's Option in Excess of Amount. If the estimated cost of
repair, replacement or restoration of such loss or damage to the Real Property
and the Improvements is equal to or in excess of five percent (5%) of the
Purchase Price, Purchaser may exercise the resulting option under (i) or (ii)
of Section 7.1 above only by written notice given to Seller within five (5)
business days after receipt of Seller's bid from a contractor in accordance
with Section 7.4 hereof. If Purchaser does not give such notice to Seller
within the prescribed time period, Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected
its option under Section 7.1 (ii).

<PAGE>   21
      7.3    Purchaser's Option Less than Amount, If the estimated cost of
repair, replacement or restoration of such loss or damage to the Real Property
and the Improvements is less than five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price and
Seller does not elect to make such repairs and restorations, Purchaser shall
complete the purchase in accordance with Section 7.1 (ii) above.

      7.4    Estimated Cost of Repair, Replacement and Restoration. The terms
"estimated cost of repair, replacement and restoration" or "estimated value of
such portion of the Real Property and the Improvements to be taken", as such
terms are used in this Article 7, shall mean a firm bid for the actual cost of
repair and restoration obtained by Seller, within twenty (20) days of receipt
of Seller's Notice, from a reputable contractor regularly doing business in the
locality where the Subject Properties are located.

      7.5    Condemnation.  If an amount equal to or in excess of five percent
(5%) of the Purchase Price of the Subject Properties is taken prior to the
Closing by any governmental or quasi-governmental body or agency in the
exercise of the power of eminent domain and such loss permanently and
materially impairs the current use of the Subject Properties, then either
party, upon notice to the other, may terminate this Contract, in which event
the Earnest Money will be returned to Purchaser and all condemnation awards and
proceeds shall be paid to Seller and no party hereto shall thereafter have any
further rights against, or obligations or liabilities to, any other by reason
of this Contract except for Purchaser's obligations and liabilities pursuant to
Section 6.1, 9.5(h) and Article 10 hereof and the Confidentiality Agreement.
If this Contract is not so terminated and the Closing hereunder is completed,
all condemnation awards and proceeds shall be paid to Purchaser. If the
governmental authority exercising its power of eminent domain has not
determined the value of that portion of the Real Property and the Improvements
to be taken, then the estimated value of such portion to be taken shall be
determined in accordance with Section 7.4 hereof, except that such
determination shall be made by an appraiser mutually acceptable to Purchaser
and Seller.

                                   ARTICLE 8

                             CONDITION OF PROPERTY

      8.1    Condition of Property.  It is expressly understood and agreed that
Purchaser shall accept the conveyance of the Subject Properties in their
present condition, "AS-IS, WHERE-IS," subject to all patent and latent defects
and all faults, if any, with no representation or warranty by Seller as to
their fitness, suitability, merchantability, habitability, or usability,
including, but not limited to,



                                     - 15 -

<PAGE>   22
(i) the quality or condition of the Improvements and the Real Property,
including, without limitation, the water, soil and geology, (ii) the manner of
operating the Subject Properties and the expenses related thereto, and (iii)
the compliance of the Subject Properties with any laws, rules, ordinances or
regulations of any governmental body; and (iv) the nature and extent of any
servitudes, rights-of-way, leases, possession, liens, encumbrances, licenses,
reservations, conditions or otherwise. Purchaser acknowledges that it is not
relying upon any representation, warranty, statement, or other assertion with
respect to the condition of the Subject Properties made by Seller, and accepts
the Subject Properties under the express understanding that there are no
express or implied warranties made by Seller with respect to the condition or
value of the Subject Properties (except for limited warranties of title set
forth in any of the closing documents). Purchaser declares that it is
experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Subject
Properties and therefore acknowledges that it will rely solely on its own
investigation and examination of the Subject Properties, which it was qualified
to make, and not on any information provided or to be provided by Seller.
Seller makes no representation as to any environmental matters relating to the
Subject Properties including, without limitation, soil conditions, Purchaser
having been given the opportunity to inspect the Subject Properties prior to
its execution hereof to satisfy itself that there are no Hazardous Materials
(defined in this Section 8.1) on or in the Subject Properties that would cause
either State or Federal Agencies to order a cleanup of the Subject Properties
under any Environmental Law. As used herein, the term "Environmental Law" shall
mean and include the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. 9601, et seq., Resource Conservation and Recovery Act,
42 U.S.C. 6901, et seq. and all other similar existing and future federal,
state and municipal statutes, rules, regulations and ordinances governing the
environment or the generation, disposal or storage of any Hazardous Materials,
all as amended from time to time, and all rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. The term "Hazardous Materials" shall mean and include asbestos,
polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum products and any other hazardous or toxic
materials, wastes and substances that are defined as such in any Environmental
Law.  Seller makes no representation as to the condition or value of the
Subject Properties. Purchaser hereby waives and releases Seller of and from any
claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, liabilities, obligations,
damages, costs, expenses or compensation whatsoever, direct or indirect, known
or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, that Purchaser now has or that may arise in
the future on account of or in any way growing out of or in connection with the
economic, physical or environmental condition of the Subject Properties, or any
Environmental Law or applicable regulation.

                                     - 16 -
<PAGE>   23
      The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall be contained in the Deed to be
delivered to Purchaser at Closing and shall survive Closing and the future
transfer of any or all of the Subject Properties by Purchaser.

      8.2    Purchaser's Additional Waivers.  Purchaser agrees that Seller shall
not be responsible or liable to Purchaser for any construction defects, errors,
omissions or on account of any other conditions affecting the Subject
Properties, as Purchaser is purchasing the Subject Properties AS IS, WHERE IS
and WITH ALL FAULTS. Purchaser or anyone claiming, by, through, or under
Purchaser, hereby fully releases Seller, its employees, officers, directors,
representatives and agents from any and all claims that it may now have or
hereafter acquire against Seller, its employees, officers, directors,
representatives and agents for any cost, loss, liability, damage, expense,
demand, action or cause of action arising from or related to any construction
defects, errors, omissions, or other conditions affecting the Subject
Properties. Purchaser further acknowledges and agrees that this release shall
be given full force and effect, according to each of its expressed terms and
provisions, including, but not limited to, those relating to unknown and
unsuspected claims, damages and causes of action. Purchaser further agrees that 
Seller shall bear no responsibility or liability for th performance of, or
failure to perform, any of its obligations under any of the Bond Documents or
any other documents executed by any party in connection with the Bonds or the
Forbearance Agreement, and Purchaser hereby waives any right to object to the
terms and conditions of any such documents or Seller's performance of, or
failure to perform, any of its obligations under any such documents.

      8.3    Management of Properties. Seller agrees that it will continue to
cause the Subject Properties to be managed and operated by Manager through the
Closing in a manner consistent with the manner currently being practiced.
Seller makes no representations and assumes no responsibility with respect to
continued occupancy of the Real Property and the Improvements or any part
thereof by any tenant now in possession. Prior to Closing, Seller shall be
entitled, but not obligated, to enforce the rights under any Lease in any court
having jurisdiction over such matter. The removal by Seller of a tenant that is
in default under its Lease shall not give rise to any claim on the part of
Purchaser or affect this Contract in any manner whatsoever.

      8.4    Liquor License. The liquor license currently in effect at the
Hotel will not be assigned to Purchaser at Closing. Therefore, it is 
Purchaser's obligation and responsibility to obtain a liquor license for the
Hotel at its sole cost and expense. If requested by Purchaser, Seller will
reasonably cooperate (at no cost or expense to Seller)

                                      17 -
<PAGE>   24
with Purchaser's attempts to satisfy all liquor license requirements so that no
lapse in licensing will occur on or after the Closing. However, Purchaser's
failure to obtain a liquor license for the Hotel is not a condition or
contingency to Purchaser's obligation to close the transaction contemplated
hereby.

      8.5    Management Agreement. If requested by Purchaser, Seller will
reasonably, cooperate (at no cost to Seller) with Purchaser's attempts to
obtain consent from Manager to the transfer to Purchaser of the Management
Agreement relating to the Hotel. Seller makes no representation or warranty
that the Management Agreement is assignable, and Purchaser's failure to obtain
the consent of Manager to an assignment of the Management Agreement from Seller
to Purchaser is not a condition or contingency to Purchaser's obligation to
close the transaction contemplated hereby.

                 (a)       As of 12:01 a.m., according to the time zone in
         which the Subject Properties are located, on the Closing Date, Seller
         shall cause to be compiled a list of all accounts receivable from

         and a list of all accounts receivable from guests previously occupying

         (the "City Ledger Accounts"). Such Guest Ledger Accounts and City
         Ledger Accounts shall remain the property of Seller and Seller shall

         any and all amounts collected by Seller pursuant to the Guest Ledger
         Accounts which are in payment for occupancy on the Closing Date shall
         be paid to Purchaser upon Seller's receipt thereof. All other accounts
         receivable accruing after 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date shall be the
         property of Purchaser.

                 (b)       Representatives of Seller and Purchaser shall cause
         to be compiled an inventory of unopened food and beverage items on the
         Subject Properties as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date. At Closing,

         basis as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date:

                           (i)      Rents and other charges payable under the 
                 Leases. For purposes hereof, all rents and other charges
                 payable under the Leases for the calendar month in which the
                 Closing occurs shall be prorated on the basis of sums actually
                 collected by Seller prior to the Closing. All rent collections
                 prior to the Closing shall be first applied to arrears for
                 prior months, with any balance to be applied to current monthly
                 charges. From and after Closing, all rent collections shall be
                 first applied to current monthly charges, with the balance, if
                 any, to be applied to arrears for prior months.  After the
                 Closing,

                                 Purchaser shall have a duty and obligation to
                                 Seller to remit such unpaid rents and other
                                 charges to Seller when collected by Purchaser;
                                 provided, however, Seller shall provide
                                 Purchaser with a list of any outstanding rents
                                 and other charges that are known to Seller at
                                 Closing. Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts
                                 to collect any such unpaid rents or other
                                 charges in arrears. The provisions of this
                                 Section 9.4(c)(i) shall survive the Closing.
                        
                        (ii)     Payments under the Miscellaneous Contracts
                                 assumed by Purchaser on the basis of the actual
                                 payments owed thereunder.  If the actual
                                 payments owed under the Miscellaneous Contracts
                                 are not known at the Closing, the proration of
                                 such payments shall be made on the basis of the
                                 best evidence then available and thereafter
                                 adjusted when the actual amount of such
                                 payments are ascertainable.

                        (iii)    Real estate, ad valorem and personal property
                                 taxes, sewer rents and charges, and other
                                 state, county and municipal taxes, charges and
                                 assessments (special or otherwise) which may be
                                 paid in installments shall be prorated on the
                                 basis of the calendar year for which the same
                                 are levied, imposed or assessed, any
                                 apportionment of such taxes to be made with
                                 respect to a tax year for which either the tax
                                 rate or assessed valuation or both have not yet
                                 been fixed, to be upon the basis of the tax
                                 rate and/or assessed valuation last fixed;
                                 provided that the parties hereto agree that to
                                 the extent the actual taxes for the current
                                 year differ from the amount so apportioned at
                                 the Closing, the parties hereto will make all
                                 necessary adjustments by appropriate payments
                                 between themselves following the Closing, and
                                 this provision shall survive Closing. Seller
                                 shall pay regular installments of special
                                 assessments that have become due prior to the
                                 Closing. All installments of special
                                 assessments or portions due on or after the
                                 Closing for a period from and after the Closing
                                 shall be assumed and paid by Purchaser. Any

                                 year in which the Closing shall occur shall be
                                 prorated at Closing as herein provided.

                                           collection of any past due other

                                           liable for payment of same, and
                                           Purchaser shall cooperate with

                                           sums; provided, however, Purchaser
                                           shall not be obligated to incur any
                                           cost or expense in so cooperating.

                                  (ii)     At Closing, Seller shall credit to
                                           the account of Purchaser against the

                CLOSING MEMORANDUM AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

                 [Consisting of 4 pages and follows this page]
<PAGE>   45
                CLOSING MEMORANDUM AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

      THIS CLOSING MEMORANDUM AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement")
is entered into to be effective as of ____________________, 199___ (the
"Closing Date"), by and between Overlook Vinings Inn and Conference Center
Associates, Ltd., a Georgia limited partnership ("Seller"), and
______________________________________, a _______________________ ("Purchaser").

      In connection with and in consideration of the closing ("Closing") of the
transaction contemplated under that certain Sale and Purchase Agreement (the
"Contract") dated effective as of __________________________, 199___, by and
between Seller and Purchaser, covering that certain property (the "Property")
located in Cobb County, Georgia, commonly known as The Wyndham Garden Hotel,
2857 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, Georgia 30339, and more particularly described
in the Contract, Seller and Purchaser hereby agree as follows:

      1.     Defined Terms. Unless specifically defined herein, all terms used
herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to such terms in the Contract.

      2.     Proration Date. All prorations have been made as of 12:01 a.m.,
according to the time zone in which the Property is located, on the Closing
Date.

      3.     Operating Expenses. Except as otherwise herein provided, any and
all costs and expenses relating to the operation, management or ownership of
the Property for the period prior to the Closing Date, including, but not
limited to, accounts and payments under service contracts and utility charges,
are the responsibility of Seller and will be paid by Seller promptly upon
receipt of billing therefor. Any and all costs and expenses relating to the
operation,  management or ownership of the Property for the period from and
after the Closing Date (including the Closing Date), including, but not limited
to, accounts and payments under the Miscellaneous Contracts (including, without
limitation, all transfer or termination fees, if any, required to be paid under
the terms thereof) and utility charges, are the responsibility of Purchaser and
will be paid by Purchaser promptly upon receipt of billing therefor, and
Purchaser hereby holds Seller harmless with respect to same and agrees to
indemnify Seller from any loss, liability or claim, including without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, relating to same. To
the extent not reflected in the closing statements (the "Closing Statements")
evidencing the transaction contemplated under the Contract, Purchaser and
Seller agree to adjust between themselves outside of Closing any amounts which
are the responsibility of the other pursuant to this paragraph.

      4.     Real Estate Taxes: Fees to Tax Representative. The 199___ real
property ad valorem taxes with respect to the Property shall be paid by
Purchaser prior to their
<PAGE>   46
becoming delinquent, with Seller being charged at Closing an amount equal to
that portion of such taxes which relate to the period before the Closing Date.
Such prorations shall be based upon the best available information at the time
if the 199__ taxes have not yet been assessed at the time of Closing. To the
extent that the actual taxes for the current year differ from the amount so
apportioned at Closing, the parties hereto shall make all necessary adjustments
by appropriate payments between themselves following the Closing. Further,
Purchaser shall be charged at Closing with the fees paid or payable to Seller's
tax representative for the purpose of reducing such real property ad valorem
taxes in an amount equal to that portion of such fees which relate to calendar
199__ from and after the Closing Date, which fees shall be prorated at Closing,
as herein provided.

      5.     Room Charges. As of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, Seller has
compiled a listing of all Guest Ledger Accounts indicating that such accounts
total $_______________ and has compiled a listing of all City Ledger Accounts
indicating that such accounts total $______________. Seller shall retain
ownership of the Guest Ledger Accounts and the City Ledger Accounts; provided,
however, any funds collected pursuant to the Guest Ledger Accounts which are in
payment for occupancy on the Closing Date shall be the property of Purchaser
("Closing Date Revenues") and Seller shall remit same to Purchaser upon
Seller's receipt thereof. Purchaser shall make a good faith effort after the
Closing to collect all Guest Ledger Accounts and City Ledger Accounts in the
usual course of Purchaser's operation of the Property, but Purchaser shall not
be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect
such accounts. In the event that after Closing Purchaser receives payment of
any of the Guest Ledger Accounts or City Ledger Accounts, Purchaser shall
promptly remit such payment to Seller; provided Purchaser may retain the
Closing Date Revenues.

      6.     Other Income. The provisions of this paragraph shall control the
allocation of income from the Property other than Guest Ledger Accounts and
City Ledger Accounts addressed in paragraph 4 hereof. As of the Closing Date,
Seller has collected tenant rent and other income for the month of
___________________ in the amount of $____________.  Seller shall pay to
Purchaser Purchaser's pro rata share of any delinquent or unpaid rents and
other income which are paid to Seller after Closing and which relate to the
period from and after the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall pay to Seller,
Seller's pro rata share of said delinquent or unpaid rents and other income
which are paid to Purchaser and which relate to the period prior to the Closing
Date. Purchaser will make a good faith effort after the Closing to collect all
delinquent or unpaid rents and other income in the usual course of Purchaser's
operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any
lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect delinquent rents.

7.    Periodic Accounting. On the fifth (5th) day of each calendar month
beginning with the first (1st) full calendar month following Closing and ending
with the
<PAGE>   47
sixth (6th) full calendar month following Closing, Purchaser shall send to
Seller an accounting of the accounts receivable with respect to the Property
which existed as of the Closing Date, including specifically, without
limitation, the Guest Ledger Accounts and the City Ledger Accounts, showing
whether Seller has received payment of such accounts receivable, the
outstanding balance thereof, and the age of such accounts receivable.

      8.     Brokerage Commission. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge the payment
by Seller of a brokerage commission to _______________________________________.
Seller and Purchaser each hereby indemnify and agree to hold the other harmless
from and against any and all loss, cost, or expense (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) resulting from any other claim for any fee,
commission, or similar payment by any broker, agent, finder, or salesman as a
result of any action of Seller or Purchaser, respectively, related to the
origination, negotiation, or consummation of the transaction contemplated under
the Contract.

      9.     Errors or Omissions.    Seller and Purchaser agree to adjust
between themselves after Closing any errors or omissions in the prorations or
adjustments set forth in the Closing Statements.

      10.    Survival. This Contract and the agreements and the provisions
contained herein shall survive Closing and the execution and delivery of any
documents in connection therewith.

             EXECUTED effective as of the day and year first above written.

Senior Vice President

Newark, New Jersey 07102

Re:  Wyndham Gardens Hotel-Vinings (the "Property")/
     $9,675,000 Development Authority of Cobb County Industrial
     Development Revenue Bonds (Overlook Inn Project), Series
     1985 (the "Bonds")

Dear Mark:

This letter of intent supersedes our letter to you dated August 2, 1995,
regarding a proposed forbearance arrangement with respect to the Property.

As we have previously indicated, NationsBank of Georgia, National Association,
as trustee for holders of the Bonds (the "Trustee"), would be willing to
support a supplemental indenture of the type you suggest, providing for the
ability to purchase Bonds in lieu of payment or redemption at a purchase price
of par plus accrued interest, subject to review and approval of the definitive
supplemental indenture by the Trustee and our counsel, and receipt of an
opinion of bond counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to us. In addition
to stating that the supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted under the
Indenture and that all conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the
supplement have been satisfied, that opinion would need to confirm that the
supplemental indenture (after taking into account any transfer of the Property
and the implementation of the forbearance arrangement discussed below, as well
as other applicable factors) would not cause interest on the Bonds to become
includable in the gross income of recipients thereof for federal income tax
purposes.

With regard to your request for a forbearance agreement, and subject to the
caveats noted below, the Trustee is agreeable in principle to entering into a
forbearance agreement in the form attached to this letter as Annex A (the
"Forbearance Agreement"),






<PAGE>   51
Letter to Mr. Mahony
October 30, 1995
Page 2



contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the Purchase Contract (as
that term is defined in the Forbearance Agreement) by all parties thereto.

Although it is our position that the Trustee does not need Bondholder consent
in order to enter into the Forbearance Agreement, we intent to advise the
Bondholders of our plans to do so. Our ultimate willingness to execute and
deliver the Forbearance Agreement may be subject to the absence of objections
or contrary instructions from the Bondholders. Accordingly, this letter merely
constitutes an agreement in principle, and no forbearance arrangement shall
become effective against the Trustee unless and until (a) the Forbearance
Agreement has been executed and delivered by all parties thereto and (b) all
other conditions stated therein to the effectiveness thereof have been 
satisfied.

Please acknowledge the foregoing by executing the enclosed counterpart of this
letter on behalf of the owner of the Property and returning it to me as soon 
as possible.

Very truly yours,


John S. Hiott
Vice President

                             FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT

        THIS FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of _________,
199_ by and among NATIONSBANK OF GEORGIA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national
banking association (formerly known as The Citizens and Southern National
Bank), as Trustee (in such capacity, the "Trustee") under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to, OVERLOOK VININGS INN AND CONFERENCE CENTER ASSOCIATES,
LTD., a Georgia limited partnership (together with its permitted successors and
assigns hereunder, the "Developer"), and MUTUAL BENEFIT LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY,
IN LIQUIDATION, a mutual insurance company of New Jersey (the "Guarantor").

                                    RECITALS

        WHEREAS, Development Authority of Cobb County, a public body corporate
and politic (the "Authority"), and the Developer entered into a Loan Agreement,
dated as of October 1, 1985 (the "Loan Agreement"), whereby the Authority
loaned to the Developer proceeds of the Authority's $9,675,000 Industrial
Development Revenue Bonds, 1985 Series (Overlook Inn Project) (the "Bonds"),
for the purpose of providing construction and permanent financing for a hotel
and conference center development located within Cobb County, Georgia, now
known as the Wyndham Gardens Hotel-Vinings (the "Development"), which loan was
further evidenced by a certain Note, dated October 1, 1985 (the "Note"), in the
original principal amount of $9,675,000, made by the Developer payable to the
order of the Authority; and

        WHEREAS, the Bonds were issued by the Authority pursuant to a Trust
Indenture, dated as of October 1, 1985 (the "Indenture"), between the Authority
and the Trustee; and

        WHEREAS, the Developer's obligations under the Loan Agreement and the
Note were secured by (i) a certain Guaranty Agreement, dated as of October 1,
1985 (the "Guaranty"), made by The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company
("MBL") for the benefit of the Authority, and (ii) a certain Deed to Secure
Debt and Security Agreement, dated as of October 1, 1985 (the "Deed to Secure
Debt"), made by and among the Developer, the Authority, MBL and the Trustee;
and

        WHEREAS, under the terms of the Indenture, the Authority pledged and
assigned to the Trustee, inter alia, all of the Authority's rights under (a)
the Loan Agreement (except for certain rights to notice and payment expressly
reserved by the 


<PAGE>   54
Authority as more particularly set forth in the Indenture), and (b) the Note,
the Guaranty and the Deed to Secure Debt (the Indenture, the Loan Agreement,
the Note and the Deed to Secure Debt are sometimes referred to as the "Bond
Documents"); and

        WHEREAS, on July 16, 1991, the Guarantor was placed in a rehabilitation
proceeding captioned In the Matter of the Rehabilitation of Mutual Benefit Life
Insurance Company, General Equity Part, Docket No. C-91-00109 (the
"Rehabilitation Proceedings"), in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery
Division-Mercer County (the "Rehabilitation Court"), and the Guarantor is the
successor of MBL; and

        WHEREAS, the Guarantor is now being operated by a rehabilitator
operating under the supervision of the Rehabilitation Court; and

        WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Bond Documents, upon the
commencement of the Rehabilitation Proceedings (i) the Trustee gave notice to
the Developer to provide Alternate Security (as defined in the Indenture) for
the Guaranty, which the Developer was unable to do, (ii) pursuant to the
Indenture, the Trustee called all of the Bonds for redemption and made demand
of the Guarantor that it pay the redemption price of the Bonds, which the
Guarantor failed to do, and (iii) the Trustee made demand upon the Developer
for payment sufficient to pay the full principal of and interest on the Bonds,
which demand has not been satisfied, thus resulting in the occurrence of Events
of Default under the Indenture (collectively, the "Existing Events of
Default"); and

        WHEREAS, notwithstanding the continuation of the Existing Events of
Default, to the date of this Agreement, the Developer has continued to provide
the Trustee with sufficient funds to pay semiannual interest on the Bonds on or
before the applicable interest payment dates and to build an unexpended fund
balance under the Indenture (i.e., the "Accumulated Excess Funds", as that term
is defined in Section 1(e) hereof); and

        WHEREAS, under the terms of certain orders entered in the
Rehabilitation Proceedings (the validity of which orders are currently being
contested by the Trustee), the Trustee has been restrained and enjoined from
exercising the various remedies available to it under the Bond Documents by
reason of the Existing Events of Default (collectively, the "Restraining
Orders"); and

        WHEREAS, in conjunction with the Developer's efforts to market the
Development for sale, the Developer has required that 


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   55
the Trustee enter into a forbearance agreement in order to assure that no
remedial action would be taken with respect to the Existing Events of Default
during the applicable forbearance period, thereby providing the purchaser of
the Development with time to either provide Alternate Security (as that term is
defined in the Loan Agreement) for the Bonds or to otherwise purchase,
restructure or refund the Bonds, and the Trustee has agreed in principle to do
so, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of that certain
letter dated October __, 1995, from the Trustee to the Developer, and accepted
on behalf of the Developer and the Guarantor on October __, 1995 (the "Letter
Agreement"); and

        WHEREAS, the Developer has entered into that certain [TITLE OF PURCHASE
AND SALE CONTRACT] dated __________, 199__ (the "Purchase Contract") with [NAME
OF PURCHASER], a __________________ (the "Purchaser"), pursuant to which the
Developer has agreed to sell the Development to the Purchaser, and the
Purchaser has agreed to purchase the Development from the Developer, in
connection with which the Purchaser has agreed to assume the Developer's
obligations under the bond Documents upon the condition, among others, that the
Trustee enter into this Agreement; and

        WHEREAS, the Trustee considers it to be in the best interest of the
holders of the Bonds (the "Bondholders") for the Trustee to enter into this
Agreement, and the Trustee has not received instructions from the requisite
percentage of Bondholders to do otherwise;

        NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

        SECTION 1.      Definitions.   Unless otherwise defined herein or the
context otherwise requires, all capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.

        SECTION 2.      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BY THE DEVELOPER.

                (a)   As of the Effective Date (as that term is defined in
Section 23 hereof), the Bonds have a due, but unpaid, principal balance of
$9,675,000 and accrued interest thereon has been paid to but not including [THE
INTEREST PAYMENT DATE NEXT PRECEDING THE EFFECTIVE DATE, OR IF THE EFFECTIVE
DATE IS AN INTEREST PAYMENT DATE, THEN THE EFFECTIVE DATE].



                                      -3-
<PAGE>   56
        (b) The Developer and the Guarantor acknowledge that the Existing
Events of Default have occurred and continue under the Loan Agreement and the
other Bond Documents by reason of, among other things, failure of the Developer
to provide Alternate Security for the Guaranty and failure of the Guarantor and
the Developer to pay the Bonds in full upon the call for redemption, resulting
in the entire principal amount of the Bonds being immediately due and payable.

        (c) The Developer is not aware of any facts or circumstances which
would cause the Bond Documents not to continue to be the legal, valid and
binding obligations of the Developer, enforceable against the Developer in
accordance with their respective terms.

        (d) The Developer is not aware of any facts or circumstances which
would cause the liens and security interests heretofore granted by the
Developer to the Authority or the Trustee with respect to the Development and
the other property subject to the lien and security interests granted under
the Deed to Secure Debt and the proceeds thereof not to be duly perfected first
priority liens and security interests, subject only to the exceptions set forth
on Exhibit C to the Deed to Secure Debt, and except that the Developer makes no
representation as to the perfection of any security interest in rents granted
under the Deed to Secure Debt.

        (e) The Developer acknowledges and agrees that the Trustee shall be
entitled to retain and hold pursuant to the terms of the Indenture all sums now
or hereafter held by it and representing the excess of (i) payments made by the
Developer to the Trustee under the Note over (ii) the portion of such payments
applied by the Trustee to interest payments on the Bonds and fees and expenses
incurred by the Trustee (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses
and the fees and expenses of other consultants and agents) (together with
earnings thereon, "Accumulated Excess Funds"), subject to the provisions of
Section 8 hereof. 

    SECTION 3.  TERMS OF FORBEARANCE.

        (a) Agreement to Forbear. As long as each of the conditions to the
obligation of the Trustee to forbear specified with respect to each Forbearance
Period described below, and each of the "Forbearance Conditions" (as that term
is defined in Section 4 hereof), which shall be conditions to the obligation of
the Trustee to forbear throughout the term of this Agreement, is and remains
satisfied, as determined by the Trustee in its reasonable discretion, the
Trustee agrees that it will not, 



                                      -4-
<PAGE>   57
during each of the Forbearance Periods described below, exercise any default
remedy available to the Trustee under the Bond Documents during the period from
the Effective Date through the ending date of each such Forbearance Period.
This Agreement shall terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) __________,
199___ [the earlier to occur of (A) the date which is 15 months after the
Effective Date or (B) September 30, 1997], (ii) the first day on which no
Forbearance Period shall be in effect hereunder (whether due to the failure of
the Developer to satisfy a condition to the commencement of a subsequent
Forbearance Period, or otherwise) or (iii) the date on which this Agreement
shall be terminated as a result of the breach hereof by the Developer, or by
mutual agreement of the parties. Neither this Agreement nor the Trustee's
agreement to forbear shall be deemed a waiver of or consent to any of the
Existing Events of Default or any other breach, violation or default now
existing or hereafter occurring under any of the Bond Documents.

        (b) Forbearance Periods. This Agreement contemplates separate and
sequential forbearance periods (each such period being herein referred to as a
"Forbearance Period") as described below:

                (i) The Trustee will forbear in accordance with Section 3(a)
        above for a period (the "Initial Forbearance Period") from the Effective
        Date through and including _________________, 199____ [the earlier of
        (A) the date on which the Purchaser consummates its acquisition of the
        Development and assumes the Developer's obligations under the Bond
        Documents pursuant to the Purchase Contract or (B) the first Business
        Day which is at least 90 days after the Effective Date] (the "Initial
        Forbearance Expiration Date"), provided that each of the following
        conditions is met:

                        (1) On or before the Effective Date, the Developer shall
                pay to the Trustee an amount equal to the product of (A) the
                semiannual interest payment coming due on the Bonds on the
                Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Effective Date,
                multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
                the number of whole calendar months which shall have passed
                since the Interest Payment Date next preceding the Effective
                Date, and the denominator of which shall be six (6), for credit
                to the amount required to be paid under the terms of the Loan
                Agreement for deposit in the Revenue Fund under the Indenture
                with respect to the Interest Payment Date referred to in clause
                (A) of this paragraph.

<PAGE>   58
                        (2) On the first day of the first calendar month next
                succeeding the Effective Date, and on the first day of each
                calendar month thereafter during the Initial Forbearance Period
                (and each subsequent Forbearance Period, if any), the Developer
                shall pay to the Trustee an amount (the "Monthly Payment") equal
                to one-twelfth (1/12) of an amount equal to the product of (A)
                the principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding and (B) seven
                and five-eighths percent (7.625%) per annum--being the original
                coupon rate on the Bonds--based on a 360-day year consisting of
                twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each, for deposit in the
                Revenue Fund under the Indenture. A portion of each Monthly
                Payment equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of an amount equal to the
                product of (Y) the principal amount of the Bonds then
                outstanding and (Z) five and seventy-two one hundredths percent
                (5.72%) per annum, based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve
                (12) months of thirty days each--the current coupon rate on the
                Bonds--shall be credited against the Developer's obligations
                under the Loan Agreement to provide the Trustee with funds to
                pay interest on the Bonds. The balance of each Monthly Payment
                shall be treated as Accumulated Excess Funds. No credit shall be
                given against any other payments described in paragraphs (3) and
                (4) below, or in Section 4(d)(ii) or 4(d)(iii) hereof for
                Accumulated Excess Funds on hand with the Trustee.

                        (3) On or before the Effective Date, the Developer shall
                establish a fund or reserve (the "Tax and Insurance Reserve")
                with the Trustee for the payment of all insurance premiums,
                taxes, and assessments against or affecting the Development and
                shall make the initial deposit therein, as contemplated in
                Section 4(d)(ii) hereof.

                        (4) On or before the Effective Date, the Developer shall
                establish a fund or reserve (the "Repair and Replacement
                Reserve") with the Trustee to provide funds for the payment of
                "Repairs and Replacements" (as that term is defined in Section
                4(d)(iii) hereinbelow) and shall make the initial deposit
                therein, as contemplated in said Section.

                        (5) The Developer shall not be in violation of any of
                the Forbearance Conditions.

<PAGE>   59
                (ii)   The Trustee agrees to forbear as provided in Section 3(a)
        hereof for another Forbearance Period beginning on the Initial
        Forbearance Expiration Date and continuing until _____________, 199__
        [the same date as is specified in Section 3(a)], provided that each of
        the following conditions precedent shall have been (and in the case of
        paragraphs (2) and (3), shall continue to be) satisfied:

                        (1)   On or before the Initial Forbearance Expiration
                Date, (A) the transfer of the Development to the Purchaser shall
                have been consummated in accordance with Section 6 hereof, and
                (B) the Guarantor shall have released its interest under the
                Deed to Secure Debt as contemplated in Section 9(c) hereof.

                        (2)   On or before the first Business Day of each
                calendar month, the Developer shall pay the Monthly Payment to
                the Trustee, in the manner and for the purposes specified in
                Section 3(b)(i)(2) hereof.

                        (3)   The Developer shall not be in violation of any of
                the Forbearance Conditions.

        SECTION 4.      Conditions to Forbearance.  The following conditions
(collectively, the "Forbearance Conditions") shall constitute Forbearance
Conditions in each of the Forbearance Periods, the continued satisfaction of
each of which, as determined by the Trustee in its reasonable discretion,
shall be a condition to the agreement of the Trustee to standby and forbear as
set forth in Section 3(a) above.

        (a)     The Developer shall duly and punctually observe, perform and
discharge each and every obligation and covenant on its part to be performed
under this Agreement.

        (b)     From and after the date hereof, there shall occur or exist no
new or additional default or event of default by the Developer under the Bond
Documents or any new or additional breach, violation, default or event of
default by the Developer under any of the other Bond Documents, except the
following:

                (i)     any default arising solely as a result of the financial
        condition or Rehabilitation Proceedings of the Guarantor;

                (ii)    failure of the Developer to pay the redemption price of
        the Bonds pursuant to the Loan Agreement;


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   60
                (iii) any default by reason of the failure of the Guarantor to
        make payments due under the Guaranty; and

                (iv) failure to provide Alternate Security under the Bond
        Documents. 

        (c) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that, from and after
the date of transfer of the Development to the Purchaser, the right of the
Trustee to exercise remedies under the Bond Documents by reason of any of the
Existing Events of Default or any new Events of Default shall not be affected
or constrained by any order heretofore or hereafter entered in the
Rehabilitation Proceedings (but shall in any event be subject to the
provisions of this Agreement). To that end, the Developer or the Guarantor, or
either of them, shall cause the Restraining Orders to be lifted with respect
to the Development and the Trustee no later than the date on which the
Purchaser consummates its acquisition of the Development, and neither the
Developer nor the Guarantor nor any affiliate thereof shall take any action (or
give financial or other support to any other person or entity in
connection with taking any action) seeking to have the Restraining Orders
re-imposed with respect to the Development or the Trustee or to have other
restraining orders of similar effect imposed on the Development or the Trustee.
The agreements contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall survive
the termination of this Agreement until the Bonds have been paid in full and
the Deed to Secure Debt has been cancelled.

        (d) the Developer shall observe each of the following additional
 covenants:

                (i) The Developer shall make timely payments to the Trustee of
        all amounts payable by the Developer under the terms of the Bond 
        Documents (other than payments with respect to the principal of the
        Bonds), including, without limitation, amounts necessary to pay
        accrued interest on the Bonds on each Interest Payment Date.

                (ii) On the Effective Date and monthly thereafter with each
        interest payment due to the Trustee in accordance with the preceding
        Sections 3(b)(i)(2) and 3(b)(ii)(2), or as otherwise directed by
        the Trustee, the Developer shall pay to the Trustee a sum equal to the
        premiums that will next become due and payable on the hazard insurance 
        policies covering the Development, or any part thereof, plus taxes and
        assessments next due on the Development, or any part thereof, as
        estimated by the Trustee, less all sums paid previously to the Trustee
        for such purpose and not theretofore disbursed from the Tax and
        Insurance Reserve,





                                      -8-
<PAGE>   61
divided by the number of payments to be made before the date which is one month
prior to the date when such premiums, taxes and assessments will become
delinquent. Such sums shall be held by the Trustee in a separate escrow account
(which the Trustee shall invest, at the direction of the Developer, in
interest-bearing accounts or other investments permitted under Article VII of
the Indenture, in the same manner and to the same extent as other funds held
by the Trustee are to be invested under the terms of the Indenture), for the
purpose of paying such premiums, taxes and assessments, and upon the written
request of the Developer, the Trustee shall make such monies available to the 
Developer for such purposes. The Trustee shall make such monies available in the
form of one or more checks payable to the payee(s) identified to it by the
Developer as being the Person(s) entitled to receive payment of such taxes,
assessments and insurance premiums, as the case may be. Nothing herein, however,
shall absolve the Developer of its duty to pay such taxes, assessments and
insurance premiums as provided in the Bond Documents. Any excess reserve held by
the Trustee from time to time under this Section 4(d)(ii) shall, at the
direction of the Developer, be credited by the Trustee to subsequent reserve
payments, and any deficiency shall be paid by the Developer to the Trustee
before the date which is one month prior to the date when such premiums, taxes
and assessments shall become delinquent. 

        (iii)   On the Effective Date and monthly thereafter with each interest
payment due to the Trustee in accordance with the preceding Sections 3(b)(i)(2)
and 3(b)(ii)(2), the Developer shall pay to the Trustee an amount equal to
three and one-half percent (3.5%) of the gross income of the Development for
the second preceding calendar month, for deposit in the Repair and Replacement
Reserve. Upon written request of the Developer from time to time during the
term of this Agreement, the Trustee shall make such funds so deposited with the
Trustee available to or upon the order of the Developer to pay or reimburse
the costs of "Repairs and Replacements", as hereinafter defined; provided that
in no event shall the Trustee be liable for advancing its own funds or monies
from any other source for such costs; provided, further, that, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trustee shall have no discretion
to fail to pay a properly submitted invoice for Repairs and Replacements
from such funds, to the extent sufficient monies are then available in the
Repair and Replacement Reserve, and the Trustee shall have no input into the 
Developer's planned use of the Repair and 

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   62
        Replacement Reserve. The Developer will provide the Trustee with such
        substantiating evidence of these expenditures as the Trustee may
        reasonably request from time to time; however, the Trustee shall have no
        duty to investigate the accuracy or completeness of the statements and
        information contained in any such certificate, or to request such
        substantiating evidence from the Developer. For the purposes of this
        Agreement, the term "Repairs and Replacements" shall mean the repair or
        replacement (including, without limitation, painting) of any exterior or
        interior component of any structure constituting a portion of the
        Development and any machinery, apparatus, equipment, fixtures,
        furnishings, appliances, mechanical and electrical systems, and
        components of any utility system (including, without limitation,
        electrical, water, sewer and storm water drainage, telephone, cable
        television or satellite television) (A) located on, over or under the
        land on which the Development is situated, (B) serving any structure or
        improvement located on said land, and (C) which is owned by the
        Developer or which the Developer has a legal obligation to maintain,
        repair or replace, as the case may be, or any other improvement to, or
        maintenance and repair items with respect to the Development, the cost
        of which is capitalizable. The provisions of this Section 4(d)(iii) are
        intended to be in furtherance of, and to supplement, any obligations
        which the Developer may have under the Loan Documents to maintain the
        Development, and not to limit the operation or applicability thereof.

                (iv)    The Developer shall pay or reimburse to the Trustee, in
        accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in Exhibit A
        attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, (A) the
        Trustee's ordinary forbearance administration fees, as compensation for
        services rendered by the Trustee in connection with the administration
        of this Agreement, plus (B) out-of-pocket expenses (including, without
        limitation, long distance telephone charges, postage, courier charges,
        photocopying expenses and fax charges) incurred by the Trustee in
        connection with the performance of its services described in clause (A)
        of this paragraph, plus (C) the Trustee's extraordinary administration
        charges, as compensation for its services in connection with monitoring

        pursuant to this paragraph shall be in addition to (1) the periodic fee
        to which the Trustee is entitled under the Indenture for its services in

<PAGE>   63
        administering the Bond Documents, for which expenses the Trustee is 
        entitled to be reimbursed under the terms of the Bond Documents. The 
        periodic fee referred to in clause (1) of the immediately preceding
        sentence is calculated at the rate of $250 per $1,000,000 of Bonds
        outstanding and is due and payable annually, in arrears, on November 1.

                (v) The Developer shall provide the Trustee with (A) monthly
        unaudited financial statements regarding the operations of the
        Development, including occupancy information, within twenty (20) days
        after the end of each calendar month, (B) within thirty (30) days after
        the end of each fiscal year of the Developer, an annual operating and
        capital budget for the Development for the next fiscal year, including
        but not limited to a budget for repairs and replacements, and (C) such
        other information regarding the operation and management of the
        Development as the Trustee may reasonably request.

        SECTION 5.      Representations and Warranties of Developer. To induce
the Trustee to enter into this Agreement, the Developer represents and warrants
that  (a) the Developer is entering into this Agreement freely and voluntarily
with the advice of legal counsel of its own choosing, (b) the Developer has
freely and voluntarily agreed to the terms, provisions and undertakings set
forth in this Agreement, (c) the Developer has duly authorized the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by due and proper partnership action, and (d)
this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Developer and is the
valid and binding obligation of the Developer enforceable against the Developer
in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
(i) the application of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, and (ii) the exercise of
judicial discretion in appropriate cases.

        SECTION 6.      Transfer of the Development. The Trustee hereby
acknowledges that the Developer intends to transfer the Development to the
Purchaser pursuant to the Purchase Contract, and that the Purchaser will assume
all of the obligations of the Developer under the Bond Documents and will
acknowledge in writing that it is bound, as the successor "Developer", under
this Agreement. So long as the Forbearance Conditions of Section 4 of this
Agreement and all other conditions required in the applicable provisions of
Section 3 hereof remain satisfied, the Trustee consents to such transfer of the
Development (to the extent such consent is required under the terms of the Bond
Documents), provided that (a) such transfer shall be conducted in accordance
with all applicable requirements of the Bond 




                                      -11-
<PAGE>   64
Documents, (b) the Purchaser (i) shall pay not less than $2,000,000 of the
purchase price of the Development in cash at closing with monies derived from
its own funds (the "Equity Contribution"), and (ii) shall be experienced in the
management and operation of hotels, or shall have retained a management firm
experienced in the management and operation of hotels. If and to the extent the
Purchaser reimburses the Developer, in cash, for the amount of Accumulated
Excess Funds upon the consummation of the sale of the Property, a portion of
the Accumulated Excess Funds so reimbursed which is equal to the lesser of (1)
the amount of Accumulated Excess Funds so reimbursed and (2) $524,203.60, may
be counted towards the Purchaser's Equity Contribution. The consent of the
Trustee to such transfer shall not operate or be construed as a consent to any
other transfer of the Development. Effective immediately upon the transfer of
the Development to the Purchaser, all references herein to the Developer herein
shall be deemed to mean the Purchaser unless the context shall clearly indicate
a different meaning or intent.

        SECTION 7. Termination. If the Developer fails to satisfy any of the
Forbearance Conditions under this Agreement, the Trustee may by written notice
to the Developer declare a breach to have occurred under this Agreement (a
"Notice of Breach"). If a failure to make any payment hereunder is not cured
within five (5) days after a Notice of Breach is given to the Developer by the
Trustee, or if any failure of the Developer to satisfy any other Forbearance
Condition is not cured within thirty (30) days after the applicable Notice of
Breach is given to the Developer by the Trustee, this Agreement may be
terminated by the Trustee by written notice thereof to the Developer (a
"Termination Notice"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Developer shall not be entitled to the aforesaid cure periods after
the Trustee shall have sent two Notices of Breach, after which any subsequent
failure to satisfy the Forbearance Conditions shall constitute immediate
grounds for termination of this Agreement as provided herein. Upon giving the
Termination Notice, the Trustee shall cease to be obligated to forbear as
provided in Section 3 hereof and may exercise any and all remedies, and take
any and all actions, available to the Trustee under the Bond Documents or
otherwise available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to,
commence or continue an action for foreclosure, for appointment of a receiver,
or for perfection of a security interest in the Development and the rents,
issues, products and proceeds thereof and any other property of the Developer
which is subject to the liens and security interests of the Deed to Secure Debt.

        SECTION 8. Release of Moneys Held Under Indenture. Upon the earliest to
occur of (a) delivery of Alternate Security to


                                      -12-
<PAGE>   65
the Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Bond Documents, (b) the
refunding of the Bonds and discharge of the Indenture, or (c) receipt by the
Trustee of written instructions from the holders of 100% of the principal
amount of the Bonds then outstanding to do so, the Trustee shall release and
deliver to or upon the order of the Developer all Accumulated Excess Funds
remaining on hand with the Trustee, after making due provision for all fees and
expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) then owing to
the Trustee. In the event the Purchase Contract provides that any Accumulated
excess Funds shall be paid to Overlook Vinings Inn and Conference Center
Associates, Ltd. ("Overlook Associates") rather than to the Purchaser hereunder
under the circumstances hereinabove described, all amounts paid to the Trustee
from Accumulated Excess funds for its fees and expenses arising on and after
the Effective date (including, but not limited to, fees and expenses associated
with any refunding of the Bonds) shall be deemed to have been advanced by the
Guarantor to or for the account of the Purchaser pursuant to that certain
Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of October 1, 1985, as amended, between the
developer and the Guarantor, or pursuant to any other agreement between the 
Purchaser and the Guarantor relating solely to the Development (in either case,
the "Reimbursement Agreement"), and shall be deemed to be secured by the Junior
Deed to Secure debt (as that term is defined in Section 9(c) hereinbelow). The
Trustee acknowledges that, as of the date hereof, it is holding Accumulated
Excess Funds in the sum of $________.

        SECTION 9.  Provisions Relating to the Guaranty.

                (a) The Trustee's agreement to forbear from exercising
remedies under the Bond Documents as set forth in this Agreement shall not be
deemed to constitute a release of the Guaranty or of the Guarantor's
obligations under the Guaranty; provided, however, that the Trustee hereby
agrees to so release the Guaranty and the Guarantor upon the earliest to occur
of: (i) the discharge of the Indenture in accordance with Section 13.01
thereof, (ii) the substitution of Alternate Security for the Guaranty in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bond Documents, and (iii)
receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from the holders of 100% of the
principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding to do so.

                (b) The Trustee hereby acknowledges that any claims relating to
the Guaranty may only be asserted in the context of the Rehabilitation
Proceedings. The Trustee hereby reserves its rights to raise and pursue
objections in the Rehabilitation Proceedings (including, without limitation,
its right to object to the classification of the Trustee's claims under 
the Guaranty


                                      -13-


 
<PAGE>   66
as "Class 4" claims), and the Guarantor hereby reserves its right to contest
such claims and objections.

        (c)     The Trustee agrees, upon the request of the Guarantor, and
subject to the further terms and conditions of this subsection (c), to consent
to the execution and delivery by the Developer of a new, second priority deed
to secure debt and security agreement in favor of the Guarantor with respect to
the Development (the "Junior Deed to Secure Debt") for the purpose of securing
the obligations of Overlook Associates or the Purchaser, or both, to the
Guarantor under the Reimbursement Agreement (and only such obligations). The
Junior Deed to Secure Debt shall be executed and delivered, if at all, no
sooner than contemporaneously with the last to occur of (i) the lifting of the
Restraining Orders with respect to the Development and the Trustee, and (ii)
the release by the Guarantor (in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee) or any
and all of the Guarantor's right, title and interest in, to an under the Deed to
Secure Debt. To the extent the Guaranty grants the Guarantor a right of
subrogation under the Bond Documents for amounts advanced pursuant to the
Guaranty or the Reimbursement Agreement, or both, the Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates such rights of subrogation to the obligations secured
by the Deed to Secure Debt immediately after giving effect to the release
described in the immediately preceding sentence and agrees not to take any
action for the enforcement of such rights unless and until the Bonds shall have
been paid in full and the Deed to Secure Debt shall have been cancelled,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Guaranty, the
Reimbursement Agreement or the Bond Documents.

        SECTION 10.     Order of Rehabilitation Court.  The Trustee
acknowledges that the Developer is required to obtain the approval of the
Rehabilitation Court to the transfer of the Development contemplated under
Section 6 hereof, and the Developer agrees to use all reasonable commercial
efforts to obtain such approval.

        SECTION 11.     Relationship of Parties.  Nothing in this Agreement
shall be construed to alter the existing relationship between the Developer and
the Trustee set forth in the Bond Documents. This Agreement is not intended to
create, nor shall it be construed to create, a partnership or joint venture
relationship between the parties hereto.

        SECTION 12.     Entire Agreement; Modification of Agreement.  This
Agreement and the Bond Documents constitute the entire understanding of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. All prior
dealings and promises are merged 


                                      -14-
<PAGE>   67
into this Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified, altered or amended
except by an agreement in writing signed by all the parties hereto; provided,
however, that the consent of the Guarantor to any such amendment shall not be
required from and after the date on which the transfer consented to in Section
6 hereof is consummated unless such amendment adversely affects the Guarantor's
rights hereunder.

        SECTION 13.     Governing Law.   This Agreement shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Georgia.

        SECTION 14.     Non-Waiver of Default.   Neither the terms of this
Agreement, nor the Trustee's forbearance hereunder, nor the Trustee's continued
forbearance in accordance with this Agreement and the Bond Documents, shall be
deemed a waiver of or consent to any of the Existing Events of Default. The
Developer agrees that neither the Existing Events of Default nor any new or
additional Event of Default shall be deemed to have been waived, released or
cured by virtue of the Trustee's agreement to forbear pursuant to the terms
hereof or the execution of this Agreement by the Trustee.

        SECTION 15.     No Novation, Etc.   This Agreement is not intended to
be, nor shall it be construed to create, a novation or accord and satisfaction,
and, except as otherwise expressly stated herein, the Bond Documents shall
remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding any prior mutual temporary
disregard of any of the terms of any of the Bond Documents, the parties agree
that the terms of each of the Bond Documents shall be strictly adhered to on and
after the date hereof, except as expressly modified by this Agreement.

        SECTION 16.     Notices.   All notices required or contemplated
hereunder shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to have been given when

BANK ONE, COLUMBUS, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

                           ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

to any share of any class of stock of this Association, whether now or
hereafter authorized or to any obligations convertible into stock of this
Association, issued or sold, nor any right of subscription to any thereof other
than such, if any, as the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may from
time-to-time determine and at such price as the Board of Directors may from
time-to-time fix.
                     This Association, at any time and from time-to-time, may

              TENTH.  Every person who is or was a Director, officer or
employee of the Association or of any other corporation which he served as a
Director, officer or employee at the request of the Association as part of his
regularly assigned duties may be indemnified by the Association in accordance
with the provisions of this paragraph against all liability (including, without
limitation, judgments, fines, penalties and settlements) and all reasonable
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and investigative
expenses) that may be incurred or paid by him in connection with any claim,
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal or administrative (all
referred to hereafter in this paragraphs as "Claims") or in connection with any
appeal relating thereto in which he may become involved as a party or otherwise
or with which he may be threatened by reason of his being or having been a
Director, officer or employee of the Association or such other corporation, or
by reason of any action taken or omitted by him in his capacity as such
Director, officer or employee, whether or not he continues to be such at the
time such liability or expenses are incurred, provided that nothing contained
in this paragraph shall be construed to permit indemnification of any such
person who is adjudged guilty of, or liable for, willful misconduct, gross
neglect of duty or criminal acts, unless, at the time such indemnification is
sought, such indemnification in such instance is permissible under applicable
law and regulations, including published rulings of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other appropriate supervisory or regulatory authority, and provided
further that there shall be no indemnification of directors, officers, or
employees against expenses, penalties, or other payments incurred in an
administrative proceeding or action instituted by an appropriate regulatory
agency which proceeding or action results in a final order assessing civil
money penalties or requiring affirmative action by an individual or individuals
in the form of payments to the Association.  Every person who may be
indemnified under the provisions of this paragraph and who has been wholly
successful on the merits with respect to any Claim shall be entitled to
indemnification as of right.  Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any
indemnification under this paragraph shall be at the sole discretion of the
Board of Directors and shall be made only if the Board of Directors or the
Executive Committee acting by a quorum consisting of



                                     -7-
<PAGE>   8
Directors who are not parties to such Claim shall find or if independent legal
counsel (who may be the regular counsel of the Association) selected by the
Board of Directors or Executive Committee whether or not a disinterested quorum
exists shall render their opinion that in view of all of the circumstances then
surrounding the Claim, such indemnification is equitable and in the best
interests of the Association.  Among the circumstances to be taken into
consideration in arriving at such a finding or opinion is the existence or
non-existence of a contract of insurance or indemnity under which the
Association would be wholly or partially reimbursed for such indemnification,
but the existence or non-existence of such insurance is not the sole
circumstance to be considered nor shall it be wholly determinative of whether
such indemnification shall be made.  In addition to such finding or opinion, no
indemnification under this paragraph shall be made unless the Board of
Directors or the Executive Committee acting by a quorum consisting of Directors
who are not parties to such Claim shall find or if independent legal counsel
(who may be the regular counsel of the Association) selected by the Board of
Directors or Executive Committee whether or not a disinterested quorum exists
shall render their opinion that the Director, officer or employee acted in good
faith in what he reasonably believed to be the best interests of the
Association or such other corporation and further in the case of any criminal
action or proceeding, that the Director, officer or employee reasonably
believed his conduct to be lawful.  Determination of any Claim by judgment
adverse to a Director, officer or employee by settlement with or without Court
approval or conviction upon a plea of guilty or of nolocontendere or its
equivalent shall not create a presumption that a Director, officer or employee
failed to meet the standards of conduct set forth in this paragraph.  Expenses
incurred with respect to any Claim may be advanced by the Association prior to
the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking satisfactory to
the Association by or on behalf of the recipient to repay such amount unless it
is ultimately determined that he is entitled to indemnification under this
paragraph.  The rights of indemnification provided in this paragraph shall be
in addition to any rights to which any Director, officer or employee may
otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law.





                                     -8-

<PAGE>   9





Every person who shall act as a Director, officer or employee of this
Association shall be conclusively presumed to be doing so in reliance upon the
right of indemnification provided for in this paragraph.

              ELEVENTH.  These Articles of Association may be amended at any

                                   DIRECTORS

SECTION 2.01.  MANAGEMENT OF THE BANK.  The business of the Bank shall be
managed by the Board of Directors.  Each director of the Bank shall be the
beneficial owner of a substantial number of shares of BANC ONE CORPORATION and
shall be employed either in the position of Chief Executive Officer or active
leadership within his or her business, professional or community interest which
shall be located within the geographic area in which the Bank operates, or as
an executive officer of the Bank.  A director shall not be eligible for
nomination and re-election as a director of the Bank if such person's executive
or leadership position within his or her business, professional or community
interests which qualifies such person as a director of Bank terminates.  The
age of 70 is the mandatory retirement age as a director of the Bank.  When a
person's eligibility as director of the Bank terminates, whether because of
change in share ownership, position, residency or age, within 30 days after
such termination, such person shall submit his resignation as a director to be
effective at the pleasure of the Board provided, however, that in no event
shall such person be nominated or elected as a director.  Provided, however,
following a person's retirement or resignation as a director because of the age
limitations herein set forth with respect to election or re-election as a
director, such person may, in special or unusual circumstances, and at the
discretion of the Board, be elected by the directors as a Director Emeritus of
the Bank for a limited period of time.  A Director Emeritus shall have the
right to participate in board meetings but shall be without the power to vote
and shall be subject to re-election by the Board at its organizational meeting
following the Bank's annual meeting of shareholders.

SECTION 2.02.  QUALIFICATIONS.  Each director shall have the qualification
prescribed by law.  No person elected a director may exercise any of the powers
of his office until he has taken the oath of such office.

SECTION 2.03.  TERM OF OFFICE/VACANCIES.  A director shall hold office until
the annual meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his
successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to his prior
death, resignation, or removal from office. Whenever any vacancy shall occur
among the directors, the remaining directors shall constitute the directors of
the Bank until such vacancy is filled by the remaining directors, and any
director so appointed shall hold office for the unexpired term of his or her
successor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each director shall hold office and
serve at the pleasure of the Board.

SECTION 2.04.  ORGANIZATION MEETING.  The directors elected by the share-
holders shall meet for organization of the new board at the time fixed by the
presiding officer of the annual meeting.  If at the time fixed for such meeting
there is no quorum present, the Directors in attendance may adjourn from time
to time until a quorum is obtained.  A majority of the number of Directors
elected by the shareholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business.

SECTION 2.05.  REGULAR MEETINGS.  The regular meetings of the Board of
Directors shall be held on the third Monday of each calendar month excluding
March and July, which meeting will be held at 4:00 p.m.  When any regular
meeting of the Board falls on a holiday, the meeting shall be held on such
other day as the Board may previously designate or should the Board fail to so
designate, on such day as the Chairman of the Board of President may fix.
Whenever a quorum is not present, the directors in attendance shall adjourn the
meeting to a time not later than the date fixed by the Bylaws for the next
succeeding regular meeting of the Board.

SECTION 2.06.  SPECIAL MEETINGS.  Special meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be held at the call of the Chairman of the Board or President, or at the
request of two or more Directors.  Any special meeting may be held at such
place in Franklin County, Ohio, and at such time as may be fixed in the call.
Written or oral notice shall be given to each Director not later than the day
next preceding the day on which special meeting is to be held, which notice may
be waived in writing.





                                   - 14 -

<PAGE>   15





The presence of a Director at any meeting of the Board shall be deemed a waiver
of notice thereof by him.  Whenever a quorum is not present the Directors in
attendance shall adjourn the special meeting from day to day until a quorum is
obtained.

SECTION 2.07.  QUORUM.  A majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum
at any meeting, except when otherwise provided by law; but a lesser number may
adjourn any meeting, from time-to-time, and the meeting may be held, as
adjourned, without further notice.  When, however, less than a quorum as herein
defined, but at least one-third and not less than two of the authorized number
of Directors are present at a meeting of the Directors, business of the Bank
may be transacted and matters before the Board approved or disapproved by the
unanimous vote of the Directors present.

SECTION 2.08.  COMPENSATION.  Each member of the Board of Directors shall
receive such fees for, and transportation expenses incident to, attendance at
Board and Board Committee Meetings and such fees for service as a Director
irrespective of meeting attendance as from time to time are fixed by resolution
of the Board; provided, however, that payment hereunder shall not be made to a
Director for meetings attended and/or Board service which are not for the
Bank's sole benefit and which are concurrent and duplicative with meetings
attended or board service for an affiliate of the Bank for which the Director
receives payment; and provided further, that payment hereunder shall not be
made in the case of any Director in the regular employment of the Bank or of
one of its affiliates.

SECTION 2.09.  EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.  There shall be a standing committee of the
Board of Directors known as the Executive Committee which shall possess and
exercise, when the Board is not in session, all powers of the Board that may
lawfully be delegated.  The Executive Committee shall also exercise the powers
of the Board of Directors in accordance with the Provisions of the "Employees
Retirement Plan" and the "Agreement and Declaration of Trust" as the same now

exist or may be amended hereafter.  The Executive Committee shall consist of
not fewer than four board members, including the Chairman of the Board and
President of the Bank, one of whom, as hereinafter required by these By-laws,
shall be the Chief Executive Officer.  The other members of the Committee shall
be appointed by the Chairman of the Board or by the President, with the
approval of the Board and shall continue as members of the Executive Committee
until their successors are appointed, provided, however, that any member of the
Executive Committee may be removed by the Board upon a majority vote thereof at
any regular or special meeting of the Board.  The Chairman or President shall
fill any vacancy in the Committee by the appointment of another Director,
subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.  The regular meetings of the
Executive Committee shall be held on a regular basis as scheduled by the Board
of Directors.  Special meetings of the Executive Committee shall be held at the
call of the Chairman or President or any two members thereof at such time or
times as may be designated.  In the event of the absence of any member or
members of the Committee, the presiding member may appoint a member or members
of the Board to fill the place or places of such absent member or members to
serve during such absence.  Not fewer than three members of the Committee must
be present at any meeting of the Executive Committee to constitute a quorum,
provided, however that with regard to any matters on which the Executive
Committee shall vote, a majority of the Committee members present at the
meeting at which a vote is to be taken shall not be officers of the Bank and,
provided further, that if, at any meeting at which the Chairman of the Board
and President are both present, Committee members who are not officers are not
in the majority, then the Chairman of the Board or President, which ever of
such officers is not also the Chief Executive Officer, shall not be eligible to
vote at such meeting and shall not be recognized for purposes of determining if
a quorum is present at such meeting.  When neither the Chairman of the Board
nor President are present, the Committee shall appoint a presiding officer.
The Executive Committee shall keep a record of its proceedings and report its
proceedings and the action taken by it to the Board of Directors.

1.   Test for determining the extent to which Schedule RC-R must be completed. To be completed
     only by banks with total assets of less than $1 billion. Indicate in the appropriate box
     at the right whether the bank has total capital greater than or equal to eight percent of
     adjusted total assets....................................................................  6056                   1.
</TABLE>
 
          For purposes of this test, adjusted total assets equals total assets
     less cash, U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Government agency obligations, and 80
     percent of U.S. Government-sponsored agency obligations plus the allowance
     for loan and lease losses and selected off-balance sheet items as reported
     on Schedule RC-L (see instructions).
 
          If the box marked YES has been checked, then the bank only has to
     complete item 2 AND 3 below. If the box marked NO has been checked, the 
     bank must complete the remainder of this schedule.
 
          A NO response to item 1 does not necessarily mean that the bank's
     actual risk-based capital ratio is less than eight percent or that the bank
     is not in compliance with the risk-based capital guidelines.
 
Items 2 and 3 are to be completed by all banks.

The following information is required by Public Laws 90-44 and 102-242, but does not constitute a part of the Report of
Condition.  With each Report of Condition, these Laws require all banks to furnish a report of all loans or other
extensions of credit to their executive officers made since the date of the previous Report of Condition. Data regarding
individual loans or other extensions of credit are not required. If no such loans or other extensions of credit were
made during the period, insert "none" against subitem (a). (Exclude the first $15,000 of indebtedness of each executive
officer under bank credit card plan.) See Sections 215.2 and 215.3 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(Federal Reserve Board Regulation O) for the definitions of "executive officer" and "extension of credit," respectively.
Exclude loans and other extensions of credit to directors and principal shareholders who are not executive officers.
