                   AMERICAN GENERAL HOSPITALITY CORPORATION

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  ORGANIZATION AND INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

     American General Hospitality Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated
and formed on April 12, 1996 as a Maryland corporation qualifying as a real
estate investment trust ("REIT"). The Company commenced operations and completed
an Initial Public Offering (the "IPO") of 7,500,000 shares of its Common Stock
on July 31, 1996. An additional 575,000 shares of Common Stock were issued by
the Company on August 28, 1996 upon exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment
option.  The offering price of all shares sold in the IPO was $17.75 per share,
resulting in net proceeds of approximately $129.3 million after deducting IPO
expenses.

     The Company contributed all of the net proceeds of the IPO to AGH GP, Inc.
(the "General Partner") and AGH LP, Inc. (the "Limited Partner"), which in turn,
contributed such proceeds to American General Hospitality Operating Partnership,
L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") in exchange for an approximate 81.3%
aggregate equity interest in the Operating Partnership.  The General Partner, a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, owns a 1.0% interest in the Operating
Partnership.  The Limited Partner, also a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company, owns an approximate 80.3% limited partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership.
 
     In connection with the IPO, the Company acquired equity interests in 13
hotels (the "Initial Hotels").  Four of the Initial Hotels (the "AGH Predecessor
Hotels") were acquired primarily from limited partnerships controlled by the
shareholders of American General Hospitality, Inc. ("AGHI") and principals of
the Lessee and certain of their respective affiliates (the "Primary
Contributors").  The remaining nine Initial Hotels (the "AGH Acquisition
Hotels") were acquired primarily from parties unaffiliated with the Primary
Contributors.  In addition, the Company acquired interests in five of the
Initial Hotels from the AGHI Employee Retirement Savings Plan (the "Retirement
Plan") in exchange for 137,008 shares of restricted common stock.

     Also on July 31, 1996 the Operating Partnership acquired directly or
indirectly the remaining equity interests in each of the Initial Hotels for an
aggregate of 1,896,996 units of limited partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership ("OP Units") (560,178 OP Units to the Primary Contributors and
1,336,818 OP Units to parties unaffiliated with the Primary Contributors) and
approximately $91.0 million in cash to parties unaffiliated with the Primary
Contributors.

     On February 7, 1997 the Company completed a follow-on primary offering (the
"1997 Public Offering") of 5,800,000 shares of its Common Stock.  An additional
568,300 shares of Common Stock were issued by the Company on March 7, 1997 upon
exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option.  The offering price of all
shares sold in the 1997 Public Offering was $27.25 per share, resulting in net
proceeds of approximately $161.7 million after deducting offering expenses.  All
of the net proceeds were contributed to AGH GP, Inc. and AGH LP, Inc., which in
turn contributed such proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for an
88.5% aggregate equity interest in the Operating Partnership.

     Subsequent to the IPO, the Company has acquired the following hotels:

Leasing, L.P. ("Twin Towers Leasing") (together with AGH Leasing, the "Lessee")
pursuant to 12-year operating leases providing for the payment of participating
rent based on the revenues of the Hotels (the "Participating Leases").  AGH
Leasing is owned in part by certain executive officers of the Company and AGH

     In addition, the Lessee has engaged American General Hospitality, Inc.
("AGHI") to manage 25 of the Hotels pursuant to separate management agreements

Marietta, is managed by Wyndham Hotel Corporation.

     These unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the

Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 (the "10-K").  The notes
to the financial statements included herein highlight significant changes to the
notes included in the 10-K and present interim disclosures required by the SEC.
The accompanying financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial

                   AMERICAN GENERAL HOSPITALITY CORPORATION

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

     Net Income per common share for third quarter ended June 30, 1997 is
computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding.  The impact of common stock equivalents to earnings per share is
immaterial.

     In February 1997, Financial Accounting Standard Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), Earnings Per Share ("EPS").
SFAS 128 requires basic EPS to be computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
for the period and diluted EPS to reflect the potential dilution that could
occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or
converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that
then shared in the earnings of the entity.  SFAS 128 is effective for financial
statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997 and requires
restatement of all prior period EPS data presented.  Earlier application is not
permitted.  The impact of the implementation of SFAS 128 on the Company's
consolidated financial statements is expected to be immaterial.

3.  DISTRIBUTIONS PAYABLE

     On June 15, 1997, the Company declared a distribution of $0.4075 per share
for the second quarter payable on July 30, 1997 to stockholders of record on
July 15, 1997.

4.  DEBT OBLIGATIONS

     Mortgage debt outstanding at December 31, 1996 remained outstanding for the
second quarter of 1997.  The following debt was assumed in connection with the
Radisson Hotel Arlington Heights and the DoubleTree Guest Suites Atlanta
acquisitions.

</TABLE>

          Substantially all of the borrowings under the Line of Credit were
repaid in February, 1997, with a portion of the proceeds from the 1997 Public
Offering.  Borrowings have been made subsequently to fund property acquisitions
and capital improvements and renovations at the Hotels.

5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company increased its Line of Credit (the "Line of Credit") from $150
million to $300 million on July 24, 1997.  The Line of Credit matures on July
31, 1999.  At June 30, 1997, there was $170,701,000 outstanding on the Line of
Credit.  The Line of Credit is with a consortium of banks led by Societe
Generale, Southwest Agency and Bank One, Texas, N.A.  The Line of Credit is
collateralized by, among other things, first mortgage liens on all of the
Hotels, other than the Holiday Inn Select Dallas DFW Airport South, the
Courtyard by Marriott Meadowlands, the Radisson Hotel Arlington Heights and the
DoubleTree Guest Suites Atlanta, which hotels collateralize other indebtedness.
Borrowings under the Line of Credit bear interest at 30-day, 60-day or 90-day
LIBOR (the "London Interbank Offered Rate") plus 1.75% per annum, 7.44% at June
30, 1997, payable monthly in arrears or one-half percent in excess of the prime
rate, at the option of the Company.

     Franchise costs represent the annual expense for franchise royalties and
reservation services under the terms of hotel franchise agreements which expire
from 1998 to 2013. Franchise costs are based upon varying percentages of gross

                                       9

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

room revenue ranging from 1.0% to 5.0%. These fees are paid by the Lessee. No
franchise costs were incurred for the Hotel Maison de Ville.

     Twenty-five of the hotels are managed by AGHI on behalf of the Lessee. The
Lessee pays AGHI a base management fee of 1.5% of total revenue and an incentive
fee of up to 2.0% of total revenue. The incentive fee, if applicable, is equal
to 0.025% of annual total revenue for each 0.1% increase in annual total revenue
over the total revenues for the preceding twelve month period up to the maximum
incentive fee. The remaining hotel, the Wyndham Garden Hotel Marietta, is
managed by Wyndham Hotel Corporation under a similar agreement.

     Each hotel, except the Hotel Maison de Ville, is required to remit varying
percentages of gross room revenues ranging from 1.0% to 5.0% to the various
franchisors for sales and advertising expenses incurred to promote the hotel at
the national level. Additional sales and advertising costs are incurred at the
local property level. These fees are paid by the Lessee.

     The Company entered into an agreement for a license and an association
membership with one of the sellers of the Days Inn Lake Buena Vista which the
Company immediately assigned to the Lessee.  Commencing January 1998, in
connection with the license and the association membership, the Lessee is
required to pay recurring association fees including a base monthly fee equal to
1.0% of the prior month's gross room revenues generated at the hotel, and an
additional fee of 0.5% to 1.0% of gross monthly revenues if the trailing twelve
month's gross room revenues at the hotel exceed a threshold of approximately $13
million, (subject to increase based on the percentage increase in the CPI).  In
addition, the Lessee is obligated to pay a recurring royalty for the African
royal safari theme equal to an amount which ranges from 10% to 25% of net
operating income in excess of $6 million (subject to adjustment if the Operating
Partnership invests more than $40 million in the hotel).  The Lessee is also
obligated to pay a marketing assistance fee equal to .25% of gross room
revenues.  The marketing and association fees are not expected to exceed 2.25%
of gross room revenues for any twelve-month period.  The association membership
agreement terminates in October 2008; the Lessee is obligated to pay liquidated
damages if the agreement is terminated earlier.

Participating Leases

     The Lessee has future lease commitments to the Company under the
Participating Leases which expire from July 2008 to June 2009. Minimum future
rental income (i.e., base rents) under these noncancellable Participating Leases
at June 30, 1997 is as follows:

Additionally, the Company is required to establish annual minimum reserves equal
to 4.0% of total revenue for each of the Hotels which will be utilized by the
Lessee for the replacement and refurbishment of furniture, fixtures & equipment
("FF&E") and other capital expenditures to enhance the competitive position of
the Hotels. At June 30, 1997, actual capital expenditures were greater than the
amount required to be reserved.

Ground Leases

     Four of the Hotels are subject to ground leases with third parties with
respect to the land underlying each such hotel and the Sheraton Key Largo has a
ground lease related to the bay bottom area fronting the property.  The ground
leases are triple net leases which require the tenant to pay all expenses of
owning and operating the hotel, including real estate taxes and structural
maintenance and repair.

     The Courtyard by Marriott Meadowlands is subject to a ground lease with
respect to approximately 0.37 acres. The ground lease terminates in March 2036,
with two ten-year options to renew. The lease requires a fixed rent payment
equal to $150,000 per year, subject to a 25.0% increase every five years
thereafter beginning in 2001 and a percentage rent payment equal to 3.0% of
gross room revenues.

     The Wyndham Albuquerque Airport Hotel is subject to a ground lease with
respect to approximately 10 acres. The ground lease terminates in December 2013,
with two five-year options to renew. The lease requires a fixed rent payment
equal to $19,180 per year subject to annual consumer price index adjustment and
a percentage rent payment equal to 5.0% of gross room revenues, 3.0% of gross
receipts from the sale of alcoholic beverages, 2.0% of gross receipts from the
sale of food and non-alcoholic beverages and 1.0% of gross receipts from the
sale of other merchandise or services. The lease also provides the landlord with
the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company, at its
expense, to construction 100 additional hotel rooms if the occupancy rate at the
hotel is 85.0% or more for 24 consecutive months and to approve any significant
renovations scheduled at the hotel. The occupancy rate at the Wyndham
Albuquerque Airport Hotel for the twelve months ended June 30, 1997 was 74.1%.

     The Hilton Hotel Toledo is subject to a ground lease with respect to
approximately 8.8 acres. The ground lease terminates in June 2026, with four
successive renewal options, each for a ten-year term. The lease requires annual
rent payments equal to $25,000, increasing to $50,000 or $75,000 if annual gross
room revenues exceed $3.5 million or $4.5 million, respectively.

     The Wyndham Airport Hotel San Jose is subject to a ground sublease with
respect to approximately 5.3 acres, which in turn is subject to a ground lease
covering a larger tract of land. The sublease terminates in 2022, with one 30-
year option to renew. The sublease requires the greater of a fixed minimum
annual rent of $75,945 (increasing to an annual minimum rent of $100,000 if the
option is exercised) or, in the aggregate, 4.0% of gross room revenues, 2.0% of
gross food receipts, and 3.0% of gross bar and miscellaneous operations
receipts. The sublease also provides the sublessor with the right to approve any
significant renovations scheduled at the hotel.

     The Sheraton Key Largo is subject to a ground lease with respect to 42,500
square feet of off-shore bay bottom land in the Florida Bay on which a
commercial marina is operated pursuant to a lease from the Board of Trustees of
the Internal Improvement Trust Fund of the State of Florida, as Lessor.  The
lease terminates in May 2021 and requires an annual lease fee of approximately
$3,100.

7.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On July 14, 1997, as part of the terms of the strategic alliance between
Wyndham Hotel Corporation ("Wyndham") and the Company, Wyndham purchased 112,969
shares of restricted common stock (the "Wyndham Shares") at a negotiated price

8.  PRO FORMA INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of June 30,
1997 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 are presented as if the acquisition of the 26
Hotels owned as of June 30, 1997, the IPO, the 1997 Public Offering, the two
increases to the Line of Credit and the Wyndham Shares had occurred on January
1, 1997 and all of the Hotels had been leased to the Lessee pursuant to the
Participating Leases.  Such pro forma information is based in part upon the
Statement of Operations of the Lessee included elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.  Such information should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements listed in the Index on page 2.

     In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects
of the transactions previously described have been made.  The pro forma
information does not purport to present what actual results of operations would
have been if the acquisitions and the consummation of the IPO had occurred on
such date or to project results for any future period.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   Organization

     AGH Leasing, L.P. ("AGH Leasing"), is a Delaware limited partnership which
was formed on May 29, 1996 and commenced operations on July 31, 1996. AGH
Leasing is owned in part by certain executive officers of American General
Hospitality Corporation (the "Company") and American General Hospitality, Inc.
("AGHI").  AGH Leasing leases 25 of the 26 hotels (the "Hotels") owned by
American General Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating
Partnership") at June 30, 1997 pursuant to operating leases ("Participating
Leases") which provide for rent based on the revenues of the Hotels.

     Twin Towers Leasing, L.P. ("Twin Towers Leasing") (together with AGH
Leasing, the "Lessee") leases the remaining Hotel, the Radisson Twin Towers
Orlando, pursuant to a Participating Lease which is substantially similar in
form to the other Participating Leases.  Twin Towers Leasing is a Florida
limited partnership which was formed on June 1, 1997 and commenced operations on
June 25, 1997.  AGH Leasing is the 51% sole general partner of Twin Towers
Leasing.  The remaining 49% is owned by Regent Carolina Corporation ("Regent"),
an affiliate of the selling entity.  Based on the partnership agreement, Regent
is allocated 100% of any losses generated by Twin Towers Leasing up to their
capital contribution of $3 million.  The operations of Twin Towers Leasing are
consolidated with the operations of AGH Leasing for financial statement
purposes.

     The consolidated financial statements of the Lessee include the results of
operations of the hotels leased from the Operating Partnership due to the
Lessee's control over the operations of the hotels during the 12 year term of
the Participating Leases. The Lessee has complete discretion in establishing
room rates and all rates for hotel goods and services. Likewise, all operating
expenses of the hotels are under the control of the Lessee. The Lessee has the
right to manage or to enter into management contracts with other parties to
manage the hotels. If the Lessee elects to enter into management contracts with
parties other than American General Hospitality, Inc., the Lessee must obtain
the prior written consent of the Operating Partnership, which consent may not be
unreasonably withheld. The Lessee has entered into management agreements
pursuant to which twenty-five of the Hotels are managed by AGHI and the
remaining Hotel is managed by Wyndham Hotel Corporation.

     The Lessee's results of operations are seasonal. The aggregate room
revenues in the second and third quarters of each fiscal year may be higher than
room revenues in the first quarter and fourth quarter of each fiscal year.
Consequently, the Lessee may have net income in some quarters and may have net
losses in other quarters of the same year.

     Upon consummation of the Company's Initial Public Offering (the "IPO"), the
partners of AGH Leasing capitalized AGH Leasing with $500,000 cash and pledged
275,000 units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership ("OP
Units") to the Company to collateralize the Lessee's obligations under the
Participating Leases.  Twin Towers Leasing was capitalized with $3 million by
the 49% limited partner upon commencement of operations.

     These unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of
the Company, the Lessee and the AGH Predecessor Hotels included in the Company's
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 (the "10-K").  The notes
to the financial statements included herein highlight significant changes to the
notes included in the 10-K and present interim disclosures required by the SEC.
The accompanying financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial
statements.  All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

2.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Franchise costs represent the annual expense for franchise royalties and
reservation services under the terms of hotel franchise agreements which expire
from 1998 to 2013. Franchise costs are based upon varying percentages of gross
room revenue ranging from 1.0% to 5.0%. These fees are paid by the Lessee. No
franchise costs were incurred for the Hotel Maison de Ville.

                               AGH LEASING, L.P.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

     Twenty-five of the Hotels are managed by AGHI on behalf of the Lessee. The
Lessee pays AGHI a base management fee of 1.5% of total revenue and an incentive
fee of up to 2.0% of total revenue. The incentive fee, if applicable, is equal
to 0.025% of annual total revenue for each 0.1% increase in annual total revenue
over the total revenues for the preceding twelve month period up to the maximum
incentive fee.
 
     The remaining Hotel, the Wyndham Garden Hotel Marietta, is managed by
Wyndham Hotel Corporation ("Wyndham") on behalf of the Lessee.  The Lessee pays
Wyndham a base management fee equal to  1.5% of gross revenues at the Hotel plus
an incentive management fee of up to 1.5% of gross revenues.  The incentive fee,
if applicable, will be earned if gross revenues exceed certain year over year
thresholds.
 
     Each hotel, except the Hotel Maison de Ville, is required to remit varying
percentages of gross room revenue ranging from 1.0% to 5.0% to the various
franchisors for sales and advertising expenses incurred to promote the hotel at
the national level.  Additional sales and advertising costs are incurred at the
local property level. These fees are paid by the Lessee.

     The Company entered into an agreement for a license and an association
membership from one of the sellers of the Days Inn Lake Buena Vista which the
Company immediately assigned to the Lessee.  Commencing January 1998, in
connection with the license and the association membership, the Lessee is
required to pay recurring association fees including a base monthly fee equal to
1.0% of the prior month's gross room revenues generated at the hotel, and an
additional fee of 0.5% to 1.0% of gross monthly revenues if the trailing twelve
month's gross room revenues at the hotel exceed a threshold of approximately $13
million, (subject to increase based on the percentage increase in the Consumer
Price Index ("CPI")).  In addition, the Lessee is obligated to pay a recurring
royalty for the African royal safari theme equal to an amount which ranges from
10% to 25% of net operating income in excess of $6 million (subject to
adjustment if the Operating Partnership invests more than $40 million in the
hotel).  The Lessee is also obligated to pay a marketing assistance fee equal to
 .25% of gross room revenues.  The marketing and association fees are not
expected to exceed 2.25% of gross room revenues for any twelve-month period.
The association membership agreement terminates in October 2008; the Lessee is
obligated to pay liquidated damages if the agreement is terminated earlier.

     The Lessee has future lease commitments to the Company under the
Participating Leases which have various expiration dates between July 2008 to
June 2009. The Participating Lease expenses are based on percentages of room
revenues, food and beverage revenues and telephone and other revenues. The
departmental revenue thresholds in the Participating Leases are seasonally
adjusted for interim periods and the Participating Lease formulas are adjusted
effective January 1, 1997 by a percentage equal to the percentage increase in
the Consumer Price Index plus .75% as compared to the prior year. Additionally,
several of the Hotels will have further adjustments to the Participating Lease
formulas due to the significant renovations expected to be completed in those
hotels in 1997.  Minimum future rental expense (i.e. base rents) under these
noncancellable Participating Leases is as follows:

     Five of the Hotels are subject to ground leases with third parties with
respect to the land underlying each such hotel. The ground leases are triple net
leases which require the tenant to pay all expenses of owning and operating the
hotel, including real estate taxes and structural maintenance and repair. The
Company is responsible for payments under the ground leases.

3.  PRO FORMA INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

     The following unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 is presented as if the acquisition of the 26 Hotels
owned as of June 30, 1997, the IPO had occurred at the beginning of the period
presented and all of the Hotels had been leased to the Lessee pursuant to the
Participating Leases.  Such pro forma information is based in part upon the
Statement of Operations of the Lessee included elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.  Such information should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements listed in the Index on page 2.

     In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects
of the transactions previously described have been made.  The pro forma
information does not purport to present what actual results of operations would
have been if the acquisitions and leasing to the Lessee had occurred on such
date or to project results for any future period.

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

OVERVIEW AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     The following should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this report.  Certain statements in
this Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined
under the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995 and the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  The words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "estimate"
and other expressions which are predictions of or indicate future events and
trends and which do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking
statements.  Although the Company believes that such forward-looking statements
are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its
expectations will be achieved.

     On July 31, 1996, the Company completed its IPO of 8,075,000 shares of
Common Stock (including 575,000 shares of common stock issued upon exercise of
the underwriters' over-allotment option on August 28, 1996) and contributed
substantially all of the net proceeds from the IPO in exchange for an
approximate 81.3% interest in the Operating Partnership.

     The Operating Partnership used approximately $119.8 million of the net
proceeds from the IPO together with the proceeds of initial borrowings of $10.0
million under the Line of Credit (which was repaid upon the exercise of the
underwriters' over-allotment option) to acquire the thirteen Initial Hotels and
to repay existing mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Initial Hotels. In
addition, in connection with the IPO, the Company closed on its $100 million
Line of Credit that it utilizes primarily for the acquisition and renovation of
hotels, and for working capital.

     On February 7, 1997, the Company completed the 1997 Public Offering of
6,368,300 shares of Common Stock (including 568,300 shares of Common Stock
issued upon exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option on March 7,
1997).  The Company contributed all of the net proceeds to the Operating
Partnership and, following such contribution, owned an approximate 88.5%
interest in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used the net
proceeds (i) to repay amounts borrowed under the Line of Credit, (ii) to pay
fees and expenses in connection with the increase in the borrowing limit under
the Line of Credit, (iii) to fund the cash portion of the purchase price of the
Radisson Hotel Arlington Heights and the Portfolio Purchase, (iv) for hotel
renovations and (v) for working capital purposes.  Concurrent with the
completion of the 1997 Public Offering, the Company increased the borrowing
limit on its Line of Credit to $150 million.

     On June 24, 1997, the Company increased its Line of Credit from $150
million to $300 million and improved the terms of the Line of Credit Agreement.
The interest rate on the increased facility decreased from 1.85 percent over
LIBOR to 1.75 percent over LIBOR and the advance rate increased from 40% of the
qualified borrowing base to 50% of the qualified borrowing base, subject to
other financial ratio tests and limitations.

     Consistent with the Company's acquisition strategy, the Company has
acquired the following hotels since the IPO for the purchase prices (including
closing costs) set forth below:

     In order for the Company to qualify as a REIT, neither the Company nor the
Operating Partnership can operate hotels.  The Operating Partnership leases the
Hotels to the Lessee for terms of twelve years pursuant to separate
Participating Leases providing for the payment of base rent and participating
rent.  The principal source of revenue for the Operating Partnership and the
Company is lease payments paid by the Lessee under the Participating Leases. The
Lessee's ability to make payments to the Operating Partnership under the
Participating Leases is dependent on the ability of the Lessee, AGHI and any
other lessees or operators to generate cash flow from the operations of the
Hotels.  The Lessee has entered into management agreements whereby 25 of the
Hotels are managed by AGHI and the remaining Hotel is managed by Wyndham Hotel
Corporation.  The management agreements are for a period of twelve years from
the date each Hotel was acquired.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Actual for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

     For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company had revenues of
$23,514,877 consisting of Participating Lease revenue of $22,832,233 and
interest income of $682,644.  The interest income earned was primarily from the
excess cash from the Company's 1997 Public Offering and from excess cash
balances of the Company's subsidiaries.  Depreciation expense for the six months
was $4,825,333 reflecting the additional depreciation expense related to the
Company's recent property acquisitions.  Amortization expense was comprised of
deferred financing costs related to the Company's Line of Credit and the two
subsequent increases to the Line of Credit of $370,732, franchise transfer fees
of $40,765, other deferred expenses, such as organization costs, of $10,732 and
amortization relating to the restricted stock grants issued at the IPO of
$44,375.  Real estate and personal property taxes and insurance for the six
month period was $2,618,218.  The Company reported $1,995,176 of interest
expense for the period which consists of $609,810 attributable to the
indebtedness on the Holiday Inn Select Dallas DFW Airport South, $193,253
attributable to the indebtedness on the Courtyard by Marriott Meadowlands,
$212,318 attributable to the indebtedness on the Radisson Hotel Arlington
Heights, $263,894 attributable to the indebtedness on the DoubleTree Guest
Suites Atlanta and $715,901 attributable to the borrowings on the Line of
Credit.  The Line of Credit balance outstanding at December 31, 1996 and the
additional borrowings made before the Company's 1997 Public Offering were
substantially repaid with the net proceeds from the 1997 Public Offering.  The
Company has subsequently borrowed approximately $171 million to fund property
acquisitions, renovations and working capital needs.  The minority interest in
income for the period was $1,567,225.  The resulting net income applicable to
the common stockholders was $10,471,756 or $0.79 per share.

     The Company believes that the hotels it acquires will generally experience
increases in revenues (and accordingly, provide the Company with increases in
Participating Lease revenues) after the completion of the renovation and
conversion process; however, as individual hotels undergo such renovations,
their performance has been, and is expected to continue to be adversely affected
by such temporary factors as rooms out of service and disruptions of hotel
operations.  (A more detailed discussion of hotel revenue is contained in "The
Lessee - Actual" section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.)

Actual for the Three Months Ended June 30, 1997

     For the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company had revenues of
$13,611,799 consisting of Participating Lease revenue of $13,323,868 and
interest income of $287,931.  The interest income earned was primarily from the
excess cash remaining from the Company's 1997 Public Offering and from excess
cash balances of the Company's subsidiaries.  Depreciation expense for the three
months was $2,893,943.  Amortization expense was comprised of deferred financing
costs related to the Company's Line of Credit and the two subsequent increases
to the Line of Credit of $196,774, franchise transfer fees of $22,539, other
deferred expenses such as organization costs of $5,702 and amortization relating
to the restricted stock grants issued at the IPO of $22,188.  Real estate and
personal property taxes and insurance for the three month period was $1,368,101.
The Company reported interest expense for the quarter of $1,053,176 which
consists of $304,111 attributable to the indebtedness on the Holiday Inn Select
DFW Airport South, $93,179 attributable to the indebtedness on the Courtyard by
Marriott Meadowlands, $160,951 attributable to the indebtedness on the Radisson
Hotel Arlington Heights, $231,436 attributable to the indebtedness on the
DoubleTree Guest Suites Atlanta and $263,499 attributable to the borrowings on
the Line of Credit.  During the quarter, the Company borrowed approximately $171
million to fund property acquisitions, renovations and working capital.  The
minority interest in income for the period was $840,531.  The resulting net
income applicable to the common stockholders was $6,455,133 or $0.44 per share

Pro Forma for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

     Pro forma revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 would have been
$38,199,120 consisting of Participating Lease revenue of $36,381,894, interest
income of $682,644 earned on excess cash balances and office building rental
income of $1,134,582.  The office building rental income is related to the
office building connected to the Marriott West Loop Hotel which was acquired on
June 25, 1997.  The office building is currently 68% occupied with two major
leases in the process of being negotiated.  The office building, which is not
part of the Company's business strategy, is not intended to be a long-term
asset.

     Pro forma expenses for the period consist of:  depreciation expense of
$8,506,996; real estate and personal property taxes and insurance of $3,888,265;
general and administrative expense of $968,466; ground lease expense of
$602,099; amortization expense of $481,459 and office building operating expense
of $658,611.  Also included in pro forma expense is interest expense of
$8,258,024 relating to the Line of Credit and mortgage indebtedness assumed
relating to:  the Holiday Inn Select DFW Airport South; the Courtyard by
Marriott Meadowlands; the Radisson Hotel Arlington Heights; and the DoubleTree
Guest Suites Atlanta.

Funds From Operations

     Actual Funds From Operations for the six months and three months ended June
30, 1997, calculated using the NAREIT definition of Funds From Operations, was
$14,668,931 and $9,015,666, respectively which is the sum of net income
applicable to common stockholders and the Company's share of depreciation.

     The Company considers Funds From Operations to be a key measure of the
performance of an equity REIT.  Funds From Operations should not be considered
an alternative to net income or other measurements under generally accepted
accounting principles as an indicator of operating performance or an alternative
to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of
liquidity.

     The following is a reconciliation of net income applicable to common
stockholders to Funds From Operations and illustrates the difference in the two
measures of operating performance:

THE LESSEE

     The "Lessee" refers to the consolidated operations of AGH Leasing and Twin
Towers Leasing.  Twin Towers Leasing commenced operations on June 25, 1997 with
the acquisition of the Radisson Twin Towers Hotel in Orlando, Florida.  Twin
Towers Leasing is owned 51% by AGH Leasing, which is the sole general partner,
and 49% by Regent Carolina Corporation, which is an affiliate of the selling
entity and the sole limited partner.  Regent Carolina Corporation is allocated
100% of the losses of Twin Towers Leasing up to their capital contribution of $3
million.

<PAGE>
 
Actual for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

     For the six months ended June 30, 1997 the Lessee's revenues were
$64,420,518 consisting of room revenues of $48,520,357, food and beverage
revenues of $12,890,419 and other revenues of $3,009,742.

     Participating Lease payments and property operating costs and expenses were
$22,832,233 and $42,177,734, respectively.  The resulting net loss for the
period was $589,449.

     Certain Hotels are performing below the Company's expectations and below
last year's performance due to increased market supply, disruptions in
operations due to renovations and capital improvements and a slower than
expected improvements in operations created by the renovations and rebranding
process.  Hotels which have completed the renovation process are reflecting
marked improvements in operations.  The Company expects these trend to continue
for the remainder of the current year and into the following year.

Actual for the Three Months Ended June 30, 1997

     For the three months ended June 30, 1997 the Lessee's revenues were
$38,451,453 consisting of room revenues of $29,054,389, food and beverage
revenues of $7,693,175 and other revenues of $1,703,889.

     Participating Lease payments and property operating costs and expenses were
$13,323,868 and $25,309,527, respectively.  The resulting net loss for the
period was $181,942.

     (1)  In this reference, proforma results are calculated as if the Company
          owned the hotels listed above for the full period from April 1, 1996
          through June 30, 1996.

     Revenue per available room (REVPAR) for the Company's 14 hotels that were
not undergoing repositioning during the quarter increased 13 percent to $67.38,
while average daily room rate (ADR) increased 12% to $87.04.  Occupancy for
these hotels increased to 78 percent in the second quarter from 77 percent in
last year's second quarter.

     The 12 hotels experiencing renovation or brand repositioning in the second
quarter generated REVPAR of $58.07 compared with $55.96 last year, up 4 percent.
ADR for these hotels increased 15 percent to $83.35 from $72.46, reflecting the
higher rates being generated from those rooms which have been refurbished.
Occupancy was reduced to 70 percent from 77 percent, reflecting the impact of
both rooms out of service, and public area and exterior construction.

     In total, the 26 hotels currently in the Company's portfolio produced
REVPAR for the second quarter of $62.81, an increase of 9 percent.  ADR rose 13
percent to $85.32 for the three months, while occupancy decreased to 74 percent
in the second quarter from 77 percent in last year's second quarter, reflecting
the impact of the renovation work in progress.

</TABLE>

     For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Lessee would have had pro forma
room revenues of $74,225,424 from the Hotels and pro forma total revenues of
$100,941,034. Pro forma operating expenses were $65,154,150 and pro forma
Participating Lease payments would have been $36,381,894.

     Pro forma net loss for the period was $595,010.
 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements,
including distributions to stockholders, is its share of the Operating
Partnership's cash flow from the Participating Leases. For the six months ended
June 30, 1997 cash flow provided by operating activities, consisting primarily
of Participating Lease revenue was $18,704,719 and Funds From Operations (as
previously defined) was $14,668,931.  The Lessee's obligations under the
Participating Leases are collateralized by the pledge of 275,000 OP Units in AGH
Leasing and the contribution of $3 million in Twin Towers Leasing.  The Lessee's
ability to make rent payments under the Participating Leases and the Company's
liquidity, including its ability to make distributions to stockholders, are
substantially dependent on the ability of the Lessee, AGHI and other operators
and managers to generate sufficient cash flow from the operation of the Hotels.

     During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company completed the 1997
Public Offering, producing net proceeds to the Company of $161.7 million.  In
addition, the Company increased its Line of Credit from $100 million to $150
million in February, 1997 and from $150 million to $300 million in June, 1997.
The June, 1997 amendment to the Company's Line of Credit decreased the
applicable interest rate from 1.85% plus LIBOR to 1.75% plus LIBOR and increased
the advance rate from 40% of the qualified borrowing base to 50% of the
qualified borrowing base, subject to other financial ratio tests and
limitations.  The June 25, 1997 Line of Credit amendment also increased the
number of facility banks, led by Societe Generale and Bank One, from five banks
to twelve banks.   The Company's borrowing capacity under the Line of Credit at
June 30, 1997 is approximately $232 million.

     At June 30, 1997 the Company had $3.5 million in cash and cash equivalents
and $171 million outstanding under the Line of Credit.  The Line of Credit
balance outstanding at December 31, 1996 and the additional borrowings made
before the Company's 1997 Public Offering were substantially repaid with the net
proceeds from the 1997 Public Offering.  The Company has subsequently borrowed
approximately $171 million to fund property acquisitions, renovations and
capital improvements and working capital needs.  Borrowings under the Line of
Credit bear interest at 30-day, 60-day or 90-day LIBOR (5.69%, 5.72% and 5.78%
at June 30, 1997) plus 1.75% per annum, payable monthly in arrears or one-half
percent in excess of the prime rate at the option of the Company.  While no
definitive agreements with respect to the acquisition of any additional hotels
have been entered into, the Company expects that during 1997 additional
acquisitions will be completed and funded with borrowings under the Line of
Credit or permanent debt or equity financing. To the extent that the Line of
Credit is not sufficient to make additional property acquisitions, complete the
renovation and capital improvement programs and for working capital, the Company
expects that it will return to the equity market or will seek alternative
financing opportunities.

     Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 1997 were $3,487,475.  Restricted
cash of $429,092 includes escrow deposits on the Holiday Inn Select Dallas DFW
Airport South hotel as required by its loan agreement and an escrow deposit used
to pay certain unused facility fees under the Line of Credit. Cash flow from
operating activities of the Company was $18,704,719 for six months ended June
30, 1997, which primarily represents the collection of rents under the
Participating Leases, less the Company's operating expenses for the period,
adjusted for changes in other working capital components.  Cash flow used in
investing activities during that period in the amount of $280,977,022 resulted
from the purchase of and improvements made to the Hotels.  Cash flows from
financing activities of $261,871,497 during this period was primarily related to
the receipt of proceeds from the 1997 Public Offering and borrowings on the Line
of Credit, net of principal payments on borrowings and payments for deferred
loan costs.

     To provide for additional financing flexibility, the Company has registered
up to an aggregate of $500 million in common stock, $0.01 par value per share,
and warrants to purchase common stock pursuant to a shelf registration filed on
August 6, 1997 but not yet declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Under the terms of the registration, the Company may decide the
amount of securities to sell from time to time.  Any proceeds from such a sale
would be for various purposes, which may include, without limitation, the
repayment of outstanding indebtedness, the acquisition of additional hotels, the
improvement and/or expansion of one or more of its hotel properties or for
working capital purposes.

RENOVATIONS AND OTHER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS

     The Participating Leases require the Company to establish annual minimum
reserves equal to 4.0% of total revenue of the Hotels which will be utilized by
the Lessee for the replacement and refurbishment of FF&E and other capital
expenditures to enhance the competitive position of the Hotels. The Company and
the Lessee will jointly determine the use of funds in this reserve, and the
Company will have the right to approve the Lessee's capital expenditure budgets.
While the Company expects its reserve to be adequate to fund recurring capital
needs the Company may use Cash Available for Distribution in excess of
distributions paid or funds drawn under the Line of Credit or other borrowings
or equity to fund additional capital improvements, as necessary, including major
renovations at the Company's hotels.

     The Company has budgeted $105.9 million to fund capital improvements and
renovations at the Hotels.  As of June 30, 1997, the Company had spent
approximately $36.3 million on capital improvements and renovations and the
Company has budgeted to spend the remaining $69.6 million on the Hotels during
the remainder of 1997, and in 1998 and 1999.  In certain circumstances such
capital improvements are being completed in connection with franchisor
requirements.  The following table describes the remaining renovations and
improvements:

</TABLE>
     The Company intends to use borrowings under the Line of Credit and the FF&E
reserve established under the Participating Leases to fund these expenditures.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to complete the
scheduled capital improvements within the expected time frames or that the
anticipated costs for the capital improvements will not exceed the amounts
budgeted for that purpose. Changes in the scope of the work are inherent in
large renovation projects such as the ones undertaken by the Company.  The
Company has increased the scope of the work in certain projects in response to
market conditions, building code and other requirements.  The Company attempts
to schedule renovations and improvements during traditionally lower occupancy
periods in an effort to minimize disruption to the hotels' operations, however,
the impact of rooms out of service and public area construction remains
significant.  As individual hotels undergo such renovation and capital
improvements, their performance may be adversely affected, although such effects
are expected to be temporary.

INFLATION

     Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates
quickly. Competitive pressures may, however, limit the Lessee's ability to raise
room rates in the face of inflation.

SEASONALITY

     The hotel industry is seasonal in nature. Generally, hotel revenue is
greater in the second and third quarters of a calendar year, although this may
not be true for hotels in major tourist destinations.  Seasonal variations in
revenue at the Hotels may cause quarterly fluctuations in the Company's lease
revenue. To the extent that cash flow from operations may be insufficient during
any quarter to pay distributions at its current distribution rate due to
temporary or seasonal fluctuations in lease revenues, the Company expects to
utilize other cash on hand or borrowings under the Line of Credit to make such
distributions.

If the Initial Maturity Date has been extended as provided in this Section
2.01(b), the aggregate Banks' Commitments shall be capped at the then
outstanding principal balance of all Advances and the Letter of Credit Exposure
and the Borrower shall have the right to extend the Expiration Date to the new
Maturity Date.  After the Initial Maturity Date, the Borrower will no longer
have the right to request any more Advances, or any increase in the Letter of
Credit Exposure and shall repay the Advances in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.05.

  Section 2.02  Method of Borrowing.
                ------------------- 

  (a) Notice.  Each Borrowing shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing,
      ------                                                                  
given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas time) on the third Business Day
before the date of the proposed Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent, which shall give each Bank prompt notice on the day of receipt of such
timely Notice of Borrowing of such proposed Borrowing by telecopier. Each Notice
of Borrowing shall be in writing or by telecopier specifying the requested (i)
date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii)
aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be
comprised of LIBOR Rate Advances, the Interest Period for each such Advance.  In
the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of LIBOR Rate Advances, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the applicable interest
rate under Section 2.06(b).  Each Bank shall, before 11:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas
time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its
Applicable Lending Office to the  Administrative

                                     -40-
<PAGE>
 
Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02, or such other location as the
Administrative Agent may specify by notice to the Banks, in same day funds, such
Bank's Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing.  After the Administrative Agent's
receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set
forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to
the Borrower at its account with the Administrative Agent.

  (b) Conversions and Continuations.  In order to elect to Convert or continue
      -----------------------------                                           
Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under this Section, the Borrower
shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Conversion or Continuation to the
Administrative Agent at the  Administrative Agent's office no later than 11:00
a.m. (Dallas, Texas time) at least three Business Days in advance of the
proposed Conversion or continuation date.  Each such Notice of Conversion or
Continuation shall be in writing or by telecopier, specifying (i) the requested
Conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the
Borrowing amount and Type of the Advances to be Converted or continued, (iii)
whether a Conversion or continuation is requested, and if a Conversion, into
what Type of Advances, and (iv) in the case of a Conversion to, or a
continuation of, LIBOR Rate Advances, the requested Interest Period.  Promptly
after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph,
the  Administrative Agent shall provide each Bank with a copy thereof and, in
the case of a Conversion to or a continuation of LIBOR Rate Advances, notify
each Bank of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.06(b).  For purposes
other than the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the portion of Advances
comprising part of the same Borrowing that are Converted to Advances of another
Type shall constitute a new Borrowing.  If the Borrower shall fail to specify an
Interest Period for a LIBOR Rate Advance including the continuation of a LIBOR
Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a Prime Rate
Advance.

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

     (i) in the case of LIBOR Rate Advances each Borrowing shall be in an
  aggregate amount of not less than $2,000,000 or greater multiples of $100,000;

     (ii) except for Borrowings for the acquisition of  Future Properties by
  the Borrower or a Permitted New Subsidiary, (A) the Borrower may not request
  Borrowings on more than two days in any calendar month, and (B) the Borrower
  shall not request more than one Borrowing in any calendar month for the
  payment of Capital Expenditures and FF&E and any such request shall be made
  contemporaneously with any request to withdraw funds from the CAPEX Reserve

                                     -41-
<PAGE>
 
  as set forth in Section 5.07 in such month and shall be accompanied by the
  same documentation as required for a withdraw from the CAPEX Reserve.

     (iii)     at no time shall there be more than three Interest Periods
  applicable to outstanding LIBOR Rate Advances;

     (iv) the Borrower may not select LIBOR Rate Advances for any Borrowing to
  be made, Converted or continued if a Default has occurred and is continuing;

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

     (vi) if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the LIBOR Rate for
  LIBOR Rate Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the
  Borrower to select LIBOR Rate Advances for such Borrowing or for any
  subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall
  notify the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances causing such
  suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall
  be a Prime Rate Advance;

     (vii)     if the Majority Banks shall, at least one Business Day before the
  date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the
  LIBOR Rate for LIBOR Rate Advances comprising such Borrowing will not
  adequately reflect the cost to such Banks of making or funding their
  respective LIBOR Rate Advances, as the case may be, for such

                                     -42-
<PAGE>
 
  Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select LIBOR Rate Advances for such
  Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the
  Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the
  circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance
  comprising such Borrowing shall be a Prime Rate Advance; and

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

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

  (e) Administrative Agent Reliance.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
      -----------------------------                                             
received notice from a Bank before the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will
not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made its Pro
Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the date
of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.02 and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that
such Bank shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available
to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to
immediately repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding
amount, together with interest on such amount, for each day from the date such
amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to
the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate
applicable on each such day to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in
the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate for each such

                                     -43-
<PAGE>
 
day.  If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding
amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall
constitute such Bank's Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this
Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising
such Borrowing.

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

  (g) Notes.  The indebtedness of the Borrower to each Bank resulting from
      -----                                                               
Advances owing to such Bank shall be evidenced by the Note of the Borrower
payable to the order of such Bank in substantially the form of Exhibit A.

  Section 2.03  Fees.
                ---- 

  (a) Commitment Fees.   For the period from the Effective Date until the

the Agent's Fee Letter.  The Borrower also agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for its benefit the Administrative Agent's Fee described in the letter
dated June 25, 1997, executed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

  Section 2.04  Reduction of the Commitments.
                ---------------------------- 

  (a) Change of Control.  Upon the occurrence of any of the following:
      -----------------                                               

          (i) a change in control is reported by the Borrower, the Parent, AGH
       Leasing or any other Participating Lessee which is an Affiliate of the
       Borrower, or AGHI in response to either Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of
       Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
       "Exchange Act"), or

          (ii) any "person" (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and Section
       14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as
       defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
       securities of the Borrower, the Parent, AGH Leasing or any other
       Participating Lessee which is an Affiliate of the Borrower, or AGHI
       representing the Control Percentage or more of the combined voting power
       of the Borrower's, the Parent's, such Participating Lessee's or the
       Manager's, as applicable, then outstanding securities;

then, in such event the Majority Banks may, at their sole option upon written
notice to the Borrower (a "Termination Notice"), declare the obligation of each
Bank to make Advances and the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue, increase,
or extend Letters of Credit to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith
terminate and the Commitments shall reduce to zero.

  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "change of control" shall not be deemed to
occur as a result of the acquisition of securities of the Borrower, the Parent,
AGH Leasing or any other Participating Lessee which is an Affiliate of the
Borrower or AGHI by any of Steven D. Jorns, Bruce G. Wiles, Kenneth E. Barr,
James E. Sowell, Louis W. Shaw, II, Kenneth W. Shaw or their respective
Associates (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange
Act) or controlled Affiliates.

  (b) Borrower Capitalization Event.  Upon the occurrence of any Borrower
      -----------------------------                                      
Capitalization Event, the aggregate Commitments shall reduce by an amount equal

  Advances.  The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of each
  --------                                                                    
Advance on the Initial Maturity Date; provided that if the Maturity Date is
extended as provided in Section 2.01(b), the total outstanding balance of all
Advances as of the Initial Maturity Date shall be payable thereafter in
quarterly installments on August 1, 1999, November 1, 1999, February 1, 2000 and
May 1, 2000 in an amount equal to the product of (i) one sixtieth (1/60) times
(ii) the sum of (A) the amount of the outstanding Advances on the Initial
Maturity Date following the conversion of the loan to a term loan and (B) the
amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure on the Initial Maturity Date. The
Borrower shall on the Maturity Date repay the outstanding principal amount of
Advances.

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

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

  (b) LIBOR Rate Advances.  If such Advance is a LIBOR Rate Advance, a rate per
      -------------------                                                      
annum (computed on the actual number of days elapsed, including the first day
and excluding the last, based on a 360 day year) equal at all times during the
Interest Period for such Advance to the lesser of (i) the LIBOR Rate for such
Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) the Maximum Rate, payable in
                ----                                                            
arrears on the last day of each calendar month and the last day of such Interest
Period, and on the date such LIBOR Rate Advance shall be paid in full; provided
                                                                       --------
that during the continuance of an Event of Default, LIBOR Rate Advances shall
bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times

                                     -46-
<PAGE>
 
to the lesser of the rate required to be paid on such Advance immediately
prior to the date on which such amount became due plus three percent (3%) and
                                                  ----                       
(ii) the Maximum Rate.

  (c) Usury Recapture.  In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this
      ---------------                                                          
Agreement or the Notes at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid
principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the
total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Notes equals the amount of
interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Notes if the stated rates
of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect.  In the
event, upon payment in full of the Notes, the total amount of interest paid or
accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Notes is less than the total
amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of
interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then the
Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks an amount equal to the
difference between (i) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have
been charged on the Notes if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect
and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the Notes if the
rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect
and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement on
the Notes.  In the event the Banks ever receive, collect or apply as interest
any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the
Notes, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof
remaining shall be paid to the Borrower.

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

  (e) Late Payment Fee.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.12, if any
      ----------------                                                    
interest payable under this Agreement is not paid when due and payable (after
taking into account any applicable grace period), then the Borrower will pay to
the Banks contemporaneously with the payment of such past due interest a late
payment fee equal to an amount equal to the product of (i) such overdue interest
times (ii) four percent (4%).

comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, and
shall also pay accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal
amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08
as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided, however, that
                                                        --------  -------

  to the excess of (A) the aggregate amount of outstanding Advances and Letter
  of Credit Exposure on such date over (B) the Borrowing Base, as determined on
  such Borrowing Base Determination Date (or, upon payment in full of all
  outstanding Advances, to deposit with the Administrative Agent into the Cash
  Collateral Account an amount equal to the amount of the Letter of Credit
  Exposure which exceeds the Borrowing Base).

     (iii) Asset Sale. Contemporaneously with the occurrence of any Asset
           ----------                                                    
  Sale, the Borrower shall prepay Advances in an amount equal to the Release
  Amount of each such Asset

                                     -48-
<PAGE>
 
  Sale (except as otherwise provided in the definition of Conditions to
  Collateral Release for a sale of a Permitted Non-Eligible Property).

     (iv) Capitalization Event.  Upon the occurrence of any Capitalization
          --------------------                                            
  Event, the Borrower shall prepay Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the
  Net Cash Proceeds of such Capitalization Event on the Business Day such Net
  Cash Proceeds are received by the Borrower or the Parent, as applicable (or,
  in connection with a Borrower Capitalization Event only, upon payment in full
  of all outstanding Advances, to deposit with the Administrative Agent into the
  Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of the
  Letter of Credit Exposure or the remaining Net Cash Proceeds).

     (v) Accrued Interest.  Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.07(c)
         ----------------                                                   
  shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of
  such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section
  2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date.

     (vi) Avoidance of Breakage Costs.  In the event that the amount of any
          ---------------------------                                      
  mandatory prepayment of Advances under this Section 2.07(c) exceeds the
  aggregate principal amount of Advances which consist of Prime Rate Advances
  (the amount of such excess being the "Excess Amount"), the Borrower shall have
                                        -------------                           
  the right, in lieu of making such prepayment in full, to prepay such
  outstanding Advances which are Prime Rate Advances and to deposit an amount
  equal to the Excess Amount with the Administrative Agent in the Cash
  Collateral Account maintained by and in the sole dominion and control of the
  Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks.  Any amount so
  deposited shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the
  Obligations and applied to the prepayment of Advances which are LIBOR Rate
  Advances at the end of the current Interest Period(s) applicable thereto.  On
  any day on which amounts collected in the Cash Collateral Account remain on
  deposit in or to the credit of the Cash Collateral Account after giving effect
  to the payment made on such day pursuant to this Section 2.07(c), and the
  Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a written request or
  a telephonic request (which shall be promptly confirmed in writing) prior to
  11:00 am (Dallas, Texas time) that such remaining collected amounts be
  invested in cash equivalents specified in such request, the Administrative
  Agent shall invest such funds, to the extent the Administrative Agent is
  reasonably able to do so, in such cash equivalents as are acceptable to, and
  with no risk to, the Administrative Agent on an overnight basis or with
  maturities such that amounts will be available to pay the Obligations secured
  thereby as they become due, whether

                                     -49-
<PAGE>
 
  at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise; provided, however, that any loss
                                             --------  -------               
  resulting from such investments shall be charged to and be immediately payable
  by the Borrower on demand by the Administrative Agent.

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

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

  (f) Payments with respect to Hotel Property Limitations.  Notwithstanding
      ----------------------------------------------------                 
anything in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, each
payment of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.07 or any other provision of
this Agreement shall be made in a manner such that all Advances secured by a
Hotel Property for which any of the Security Documents for such Hotel Property
state that the amount of the Obligations secured by such Hotel Property is
limited in some way shall be deemed the last Advances repaid and, to the extent
that the Advances are repaid to an amount less than the amount of any such
limitation, shall be deemed the first Advances made to the Borrower if and when
the Borrower requests any further Advances.

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

  Section 2.09  Increased Costs.
               --------------- 

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

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

                                     -51-
<PAGE>
 
Letters of Credit and (ii) with respect to the Issuing Bank, to the extent that
such Issuing Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable
to the issuance or maintenance of the Letters of Credit.  A certificate as to
such amounts and detailing the calculation of such amounts submitted to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank or the Issuing Bank shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

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

  Section 2.10  Payments and Computations.
               ------------------------- 

  (a) Payment Procedures.  Except if otherwise set forth herein, the Borrower
      ------------------                                                     
shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than
11:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas time)

                                     -52-
<PAGE>
 
on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the location
referred to in the Notes (or such other location as the Administrative Agent
shall designate in writing to the Borrower) in same day funds.  The
Administrative Agent will on the same day cause to be distributed like funds
relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than
amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, or a
specific Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(b), 2.03(c), 2.06(c), 2.08, 2.09, 2.11,
2.12, or 2.13(c) but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to
Section 9.04) to the Banks in accordance with each Bank's Pro Rata Share for the
account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating
to the payment of any other amount payable to any Bank or Issuing Bank for the
account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Borrower hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to instruct the Cash Manager following and during the
continuance of an Event of Default to withdraw from or offset against the
Borrower's and the Borrower's Subsidiaries accounts with the Cash Manager
(including the Borrower's Bank Accounts) in order to cause timely payment to be
made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses
due hereunder or under the Notes or the other Credit Documents (subject to
sufficient funds being available in such accounts for that purpose).

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

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

  (d) Administrative Agent Reliance.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
      -----------------------------                                             
received written notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
is due to the Banks that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the
Administrative Agent may assume that the

                                     -53-
<PAGE>
 
Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date
and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be
distributed to each Bank on such date an amount equal to the amount then due
such Bank.  If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such
payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank,
together with interest, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to
such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative
Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for each such day.

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

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

  Section 2.11  Taxes.
               ----- 

  (a) No Deduction for Certain Taxes.  Any and all payments by the Borrower
      ------------------------------                                       
shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.10, free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect


                                     -54-
<PAGE>
 
thereto, excluding, in the case of each Bank, Issuing Bank, and the
Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed
on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank, Issuing Bank, or
the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political
subdivision of the jurisdiction (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to
as "Taxes") and, in the case of each Bank and Issuing Bank, Taxes by the
jurisdiction of such Bank's Applicable Lending Office or any political
subdivision of such jurisdiction.  If the Borrower shall be required by law to
deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable to any Bank, Issuing
Bank, or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may
be necessary so that, after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11), such Bank,
Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;
                                                                                
provided, however, that if the Borrower's obligation to deduct or withhold Taxes
- --------                                                                        
is caused solely by such Bank's, Issuing Bank's, or the Administrative Agent's
failure to provide the forms described in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.11 and
such Bank, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent could have provided such
forms, no such increase shall be required; (ii) the Borrower shall make such
deductions; and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable
Legal Requirements.

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

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

                                     -55-
<PAGE>
 
by the Borrower under this paragraph (c), such Bank, the Administrative Agent,
or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall promptly pay to the Borrower the
Borrower's share of such refund.

  (d) Evidence of Tax Payments.  The Borrower will pay prior to delinquency all
      ------------------------                                                 
Taxes and other Taxes payable in respect of any payment.  Within 30 days after
the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the
Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original
or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment of such Taxes or Other
Taxes.

  (e) Foreign Bank Withholding Exemption.  Each Bank and each Issuing Bank that
      ----------------------------------                                       
is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state
thereof agrees that it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
on the date of this Agreement or upon the effectiveness of any Assignment and
Acceptance (i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue
Service Form 1001 or 4224 or successor applicable form, as the case may be,
certifying in each case that such Bank is entitled to receive payments under
this Agreement and the Notes payable to it, without deduction or withholding of
any United States federal income taxes, (ii) if applicable, an Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8 or W-9 or successor applicable form, as the case may be, to
establish an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, and (iii) any
other governmental forms which are necessary or required under an applicable tax
treaty or otherwise by law to reduce or eliminate any withholding tax, which
have been reasonably requested by the Borrower.  Each Bank which delivers to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent a Form 1001 or 4224 and Form W-8 or W-9
pursuant to the next preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of Form 1001 or 4224
and Form W-8 or W-9, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of
certification, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form
expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a
change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, and such extensions or renewals thereof as may
reasonably be requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent certifying
in the case of a Form 1001 or 4224 that such Bank is entitled to receive
payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United
States federal income taxes.  If an event (including without limitation any
change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any
delivery required by the preceding sentence would otherwise be required which
renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent any Bank from duly
completing and delivering any such letter or form with respect to it and such
Bank advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of
receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal
income tax,

                                     -56-
<PAGE>
 
and in the case of a Form W-8 or W-9, establishing an exemption from United
States backup withholding tax, such Bank shall not be required to deliver such
forms.  The Borrower shall withhold tax at the rate and in the manner required
by the laws of the United States with respect to payments made to a Bank failing
to timely provide the requisite Internal Revenue Service forms.

  Section 2.12  Illegality.  If any Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent
               ----------                                                    
and the Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any Legal Requirement makes it unlawful, or that any central
bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful for such Bank
or its LIBOR Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to
maintain any LIBOR Rate Advances of such Bank then outstanding hereunder, then,
notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall, if demanded
by such Bank by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent no later
than 11:00 a.m. (Dallas, Texas time), (a) if not prohibited by Legal Requirement
to maintain such LIBOR Rate Advances for the duration of the Interest Period, on
the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Rate Advance of
such Bank or (b) if prohibited by Legal Requirement to maintain such LIBOR Rate
Advances for the duration of the Interest Period, on the second Business Day
following its receipt of such notice from such Bank, Convert all LIBOR Rate
Advances of such Bank then outstanding to Prime Rate Advances, and pay accrued
interest on the principal amount Converted to the date of such Conversion and
amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of
such Conversion being made on such date.  Each Bank agrees to use commercially
reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and
regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if
the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and
would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous
to such Bank.

  Section 2.13  Letters of Credit.
               ----------------- 

  (a) Issuance.  From time to time from the date of this Agreement until three
      --------                                                                
months before the Maturity Date, at the request of the Borrower, each Issuing
Bank shall, on any Business Day and on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth, issue, increase, decrease, amend, or extend the expiration date of
Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower (for its own benefit or for
the benefit of any of its Subsidiaries).  No Letter of Credit will be issued,
increased, or extended (i) if such issuance, increase, or extension would cause
the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the lesser of (x) $20,000,000 or (y) an
amount equal to (A) the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the aggregate
Commitments less (B) the aggregate outstanding Advances and Letter of Credit
            ----                                                            
Exposure at such time; (ii) unless such Letter of Credit has an Expiration Date
not later than the earlier of (A) one year

                                     -57-
<PAGE>
 
after the date of issuance thereof and (B) one day prior to the Maturity Date;
(iii) unless such Letter of Credit is in form and substance acceptable to the
respective Issuing Bank; (iv) unless such Letter of Credit is a standby letter
of credit not supporting the repayment of indebtedness for borrowed money of any
Person; (v) unless the Borrower has delivered to the respective Issuing Bank the
completed and executed Letter of Credit Documents (other than the Letter of
Credit) on such Issuing Bank's standard form, which shall contain terms no more
restrictive than the terms of this Agreement; (vi) unless such Letter of Credit
is governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993
Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500 ("UCP") or any
successor to the UCP.  After the Initial Maturity Date, the Borrower will no
longer have the right to any increase in the Letter of Credit Exposure; and
(vii) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the
issuance of such Letter of Credit.  If the terms of any of the Letter of Credit
Documents referred to in the foregoing clause (v) conflicts with the terms of
this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

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

  (c) Reimbursement.  The Borrower shall have the right (but not the obligation)
      -------------                                                             
to pay promptly on demand to each Issuing Bank in respect of each Letter of
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank an amount equal to any amount paid by such
Issuing Bank under or in respect of such Letter

                                     -58-
<PAGE>
 
of Credit.  In the event any Issuing Bank makes a payment pursuant to a request
for draw presented under a Letter of Credit and such payment is not promptly
reimbursed by the Borrower upon demand, such Issuing Bank shall give notice of
such payment to the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and each Bank shall
promptly reimburse such Issuing Bank for such Bank's Pro Rata Share of such
payment, and such reimbursement shall be deemed for all purposes of this
Agreement to constitute a Prime Rate Advance to the Borrower from such Bank.  If
such reimbursement is not made by any Bank to any Issuing Bank on the same day
on which such Issuing Bank shall have made payment on any such draw, such Bank
shall pay interest thereon to such Issuing Bank for each such day from the date
such payment should have been made until the date repaid at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each such day.  The Borrower hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the
Administrative Agent and the Banks to record and otherwise treat each payment
under a Letter of Credit not immediately reimbursed by the Borrower as a
Borrowing comprised of Prime Rate Advances to the Borrower.

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

     (i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit
  Documents;

     (ii)   any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any
  Letter of Credit Documents;

     (iii)  the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which
  the Borrower or any Bank or any other Person may have at any time against any
  beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom
  any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the respective
  Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity, whether in connection with this
  Agreement, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or in any Letter of
  Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction;

     (iv)   any statement or any other document presented under such Letter of
  Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any
  respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect to
  the extent the respective Issuing Bank would not be liable therefor pursuant
  to the following paragraph (e);

                                     -59-
<PAGE>
 
     (v)   payment by the respective Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit
  against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not comply with the
  terms of such Letter of Credit; or

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

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

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

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

     (iii) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents
  which do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of
  any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant
  Letter of Credit; or

     (iv)  any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make
  payment under any Letter of Credit (including such Issuing Bank's own
  negligence),

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

  Section 2.14  Determination of Borrowing Base.  The Borrowing Base shall be
                -------------------------------                              
determined by the Administrative Agent, as follows:

  (a) Quarterly.  On the 45th day following each calendar quarter the
      ---------                                                      
Administrative Agent shall determine the Borrowing Base upon receipt of a
Borrowing Base Certificate setting forth the components of the Borrowing Base
dated as of the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

  (b) Property Adjustments.  Following each addition or deletion of a Hotel

Property as an Eligible Property (an "Adjustment Event"), and with respect to
                                      ----------------

Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with the preceding paragraphs, the
Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Banks and the Borrower of the new
Borrowing Base.

  Section 2.15  Bank Replacement.
                ---------------- 

  (a) Right to Replace.  The Borrower shall have the right to replace each Bank
      ----------------                                                         
affected by a condition under Section 2.02(c)(v), 2.09, or 2.12 for more than 90
days (each such affected Bank, an "Affected Bank") in accordance with the
procedures in this Section 2.15 and provided that no reduction of the total
Commitments occurs as a result thereof.

  (b) First Right of Refusal; Replacement.
      ----------------------------------- 

     (i) Upon the occurrence of any condition permitting the replacement of a
  Bank, each Bank which is not an Affected Bank shall have the right, but not
  the obligation, to elect to increase its respective Commitment by an amount
  not to exceed the amount of the Commitments of the Affected Banks, which
  election shall be made by written notice from each such Bank to the
  Administrative Agent and the Borrower given within 30 days after the date such
  condition occurs specifying the amount of such proposed increase in such
  Bank's Commitment.

                                     -61-
<PAGE>
 
     (ii)   If  the aggregate amount of the proposed increases in Commitments
  of all such Banks making such an election is in excess of the Commitments of
  the Affected Banks, (A) the Commitments of the Affected Banks shall be
  allocated pro rata among such Banks based on the respective amounts of the
  proposed increases to Commitments elected by each of such Banks, and (B) the
  respective Commitments of such Banks shall be increased by the respective
  amounts as so allocated so that after giving effect to such termination and
  increases the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Banks will be the
  same as prior to such termination.

     (iii)  If the aggregate amount of the proposed increases to Commitments of
  all Banks making such an election equals the Commitments of the Affected
  Banks, the respective Commitments of such Banks shall be increased by the
  respective amounts of their proposed increases, so that after giving effect to
  such termination and increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments of all
  of the Banks will be the same as prior to such termination.

     (iv)   If the aggregate amount of the proposed increases to Commitments of
  all Banks making such an election is less than the Commitments of the Affected
  Banks, (A) the respective Commitments of such Banks shall be increased by the
  respective amounts of their proposed increases, and (B) the Borrower shall
  have the right to add additional Banks which are Eligible Assignees to this
  Agreement to replace such Affected Banks, which additional Banks would have
  aggregate Commitments no greater than those of the Affected Banks minus the
                                                                    -----    
  amounts thereof assumed by the other Banks pursuant to such increases.

  (c) Procedure.  Any assumptions of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15
      ---------                                                               
shall be (i) made by the purchasing Bank or Eligible Assignee and the selling
Bank entering into an Assignment and Assumption and by following the procedures
in Section 9.06 for adding a Bank. In connection with the increase of the
Commitments of any Bank pursuant to the foregoing paragraph (b), each Bank with
an increased Commitment shall purchase from the Affected Banks at par such
Bank's ratable share of the outstanding Advances of the Affected Banks and
assume such Bank's ratable share of the Affected Banks' Letter of Credit
Exposure.

  Section 2.16  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Bank shall obtain any payment
                ------------------------                                       
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or
otherwise) on account of its Advances or its share of Letter of Credit
Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share of payments on account of the
Advances or Letter of Credit Obligations obtained by all the Banks, such Bank
shall notify the Administrative Agent and forthwith purchase from the other
Banks such participations in

                                     -62-
<PAGE>
 
the Advances made by them or Letter of Credit Obligations held by them as shall
be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably
in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement with each of them;
provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
- --------                                                               
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank
shall be rescinded and such Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase
price to the extent of such Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of
(a) the amount of the participation sold by such Bank to the purchasing Bank as
a result of such excess payment to (b) the total amount of such excess payment)
of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Bank's ratable share
(according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Bank's required repayment
to the purchasing Bank to (b) the total amount of all such required repayments
to the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees
that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this
Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Requirement, unless
and until rescinded as provided above, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

benefit of the Banks to secure the Obligations in accordance with the terms of
the Security Documents.

agreements, assignments, mortgages, Financing Statements, stock powers, and
other collateral documentation, and take such other actions deemed by the
Administrative Agent and its counsel to be necessary in order to effect the
foregoing.

  (c) Appraisals.  The Borrower agrees to obtain, at its own expense and as
      ----------

conditions within 90 days following the occurrence of the damage for which the
Proceeds are collected:

     (i) The Borrower shall demonstrate to the Administrative Agent's reasonable
  satisfaction that the Proceeds, together with amounts deposited by the
  Borrower pursuant to subparagraph (ii) will be adequate to accomplish the
  repair and reconstruction of the Improvements and to restore the fair market
  value of the Hotel Property to at least the value it had immediately prior to
  sustaining the damage.  Such demonstration shall include delivery to the
  Administrative Agent of (i) plans and specifications satisfactory to the
  Administrative Agent; and (ii) a construction contract in form and content,
  and with a contractor, satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

     (ii) To the extent that the Proceeds are insufficient in the reasonable
  determination of the Administrative Agent to accomplish the repairs and
  reconstruction required above, the Borrower shall deliver to the
  Administrative Agent funds (the "Shortfall Funds") in the amount of such
  shortfall, which funds shall be, at the Administrative Agent's option,
  assigned to the Administrative Agent as security for the Borrower's
  obligations hereunder and shall be maintained with the Administrative Agent
  and disbursed in the same manner as the Proceeds.

     (iii)     The Borrower shall execute such documents, in form and content
  satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent requires
  to evidence and secure the Borrower's obligation to use all amounts disbursed
  for the prompt repair and reconstruction of the Hotel Property in accordance
  with the plans and specifications approved by the Administrative Agent.

     (iv) There shall have occurred no Default which is continuing or has not
  otherwise been cured or waived, and the Administrative Agent shall have
  received a certificate to that effect signed by a Responsible Officer of the
  Borrower.

  (b) Any Proceeds and Shortfall Funds to be disbursed to the Borrower shall be
held by the Administrative Agent and disbursed at such times and in such amounts
as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably deem necessary to fund the ongoing
repairs, provided the Administrative Agent is satisfied with such repairs.  The
Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disburse proceeds more than
once per month.  Any amounts remaining undisbursed following completion of (and
full payment for) such repairs and reconstruction shall be returned to the
Borrower up to the amount of

                                      -97-
<PAGE>
 
any Shortfall Funds deposited by Borrower, and any other amounts remaining shall
be applied against the outstanding principal balance of and/or unpaid accrued
interest on, the Notes, in such order as the Administrative Agent chooses in its
sole discretion.

  (c) In the event the Borrower fails to fulfill the conditions set forth in
Sections 5.11(a)(i)-(iv) within 90 days following the date on which the damage
occurs, the Proceeds shall be applied by the Administrative Agent against the
outstanding principal balance of and/or unpaid accrued interest on, the Notes in
such order as the Administrative Agent chooses in its sole discretion.

  (d) The Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent, as security for
the Borrower's obligations under the Credit Documents, all compensation, awards
and other amounts payable to the Borrower in connection with any taking of any
portion of a Hotel Property for public use, and any proceeds of any related
settlement regardless of whether eminent domain proceedings are instituted in
connection therewith (collectively, "Compensation").  The Borrower shall deliver
all Compen  sation to the Administrative Agent immediately upon receipt.  If
such condemnation or taking would result in a decrease to the Borrowing Base
which would require a prepayment of the Obligations pursuant to the provisions
of this Agreement at the Administrative Agent's option and in its sole
discretion, any Compensation received by the Administrative Agent shall be (i)
disbursed to Borrower for repairs and reconstruction; and/or (ii) paid to
Borrower; and/or (iii) applied against the outstanding principal balance of
and/or unpaid accrued interest on, the Notes in such order as the Administrative
Agent chooses in its sole discretion; all in accordance with the rights,
procedures and other provisions set forth in Sections 5.11(a)-(c) for the
application of casualty insurance proceeds. Otherwise, the Compensation shall be
disbursed by the Administrative Agent to Borrower for repairs and
reconstruction.

each Hotel Property (except for any Permitted Other Subsidiary Properties
and any Permitted Non-Eligible Property) shall be deposited on a daily basis by
the applicable Participating Lessee into the Deposit Account established for
such Hotel Property as part of the Cash Management System (Participating

(except for any Permitted Other Subsidiary Property and any Permitted Non-
Eligible Property) to be swept at the end of each Business Day into the
respective Operating Account (Participating Lessee) for such Hotel Property to
reduce the net daily balance of good funds in such Deposit Account to an amount,
sufficient in the reasonable opinion of the Agents, to cover usual and customary
account fees and chargebacks applicable to such Deposit Account.  As provided in
the Irrevocable Direction to Pay Rent, the rental payments and other sums owed
by the Participating Lessee to the Borrower and the Borrower's Subsidiaries
under the Participating Leases (except for Permitted Other Subsidiary
Properties) shall be paid into the Concentration Bank Account established as

Bank Accounts except the pledge to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the

Borrower shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and the Participating
Lessees to, perform and comply with the following covenants and agreements:

in trust for the Borrower and the Borrower's Subsidiaries as collateral for the
Participating Lessee's obligations under the Participating Lease.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit
Document, all such cash, cash equivalents and other revenues from the Eligible
Properties shall be paid by the Collecting Agents into Deposit Accounts subject
to a Depository Account Agreement and the Cash Management Systems.  Funds
received from credit card companies pursuant to the Credit Card Agreements for
any Hotel Property (except for Permitted Other Subsidiary Properties and any
Permitted Non-Eligible Property) shall be deposited either directly into the
Operating Account ( Participating Lessee) for such Hotel Property or Deposit
Account for such Hotel Property subject to a Depository Account Agreement and
the Cash Management System (Participating Lessee).

Administrative Agent instruct the Cash Manager to either (i) apply Dollars on
deposit in the Concentration Bank Account to pay the Obligations, (ii) transfer

Subsidiary Properties) and to make distributions to the Borrower's or its
Subsidiaries partners as permitted by the provisions of Section 6.04, in each
case by delivering such a request to the Administrative Agent in accordance with

the Concentration Bank Account as so requested, in each case subject to the
availability of funds on deposit in the Concentration Bank Account.  Funds
transferred into any of the Operating Accounts (Borrower) shall be withdrawn by
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and used to pay for those
matters for which the Borrower had made request.

  (c) The Borrower or all Subsidiaries of Borrower (except for the Permitted
Other Subsidiaries) irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the
Administrative Agent, and all Persons designated by Administrative Agent for
that purpose (including the Cash Manager), at any time, as such Person's true

endorse such Person's name on any checks, notes, drafts or any other form of
payment relating to Hotel Property that come into the Administrative Agent's or

the same as though it were not an Agent.  The term "Bank" or "Banks" shall,
unless otherwise expressly indicated, include each Agent in its individual
capacity.  Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of

Agent and each Issuing Bank (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower),
according to their respective Pro Rata Shares from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent or such Issuing Bank in
any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or
omitted by such Agent or such Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any other
Credit Document (including such Agent's or such Issuing Bank's own negligence),
provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent's or such Issuing Bank's
gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Without limitation of the foregoing,
each Bank agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata
Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by such
Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, to the
extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.

Majority Banks upon receipt of written notice from the Majority Banks to such

successor Agent or Issuing Bank shall have been so appointed, and shall have
accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent's or Issuing

behalf of the Banks and the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent or Issuing Bank,
which shall be a commercial bank meeting the financial requirements of an
Eligible Assignee and, in the case of an Issuing Bank, a Bank.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Agent or Issuing Bank by a successor Agent or
Issuing Bank, such successor Agent or Issuing Bank shall thereupon succeed to
and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Agent or Issuing Bank, and the retiring Agent or Issuing Bank shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents, except that the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain an Issuing
Bank with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and
outstanding on the effective date of its resignation or removal and the
provisions affecting such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit

delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least three

<PAGE>
 
an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of such
Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be
a party hereto).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Bank may
assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights under the Credit Documents
to any Federal Reserve Bank.

  (b) Term of Assignments.  By executing and delivering an Assignment and
      -------------------                                                
Acceptance, the Bank thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree
with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (i) other than as
provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such Bank makes no representation or
warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or
the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency of
value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant

any of their obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has

as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will,

Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at
the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking
action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes each
Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers
under this Agreement as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such
assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by
it as a Bank.

  (c) The Register.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address
      ------------                                                         
referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered
to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Banks and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the
Advances owing to, each Bank from time to time (the "Register").  The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error, and the Borrower, each Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Banks may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall

                                     -127-

be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

  (d) Procedures.  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by
      ----------                                                               
a Bank and an Eligible Assignee, together with the Note subject to such
assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance
has been completed and is in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit B,

Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its
own expense, shall execute and deliver to the  Administrative Agent in exchange
for the surrendered Note, a new Note payable to the order of such Eligible
Assignee in amount equal to, respectively, the Commitment and the outstanding
Advances assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, and if the
assigning Bank has retained any Commitment hereunder, a new Note payable to the
order of such Bank in an amount equal to, respectively, the Commitment and the
outstanding Advances retained by it hereunder. Such new Note shall be dated the
effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in
substantially the form of the attached Exhibit A.

  (e) Participations.  Each Bank may sell participations to one or more banks or
      --------------                                                            
other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its
Commitment, the Advances owing to it, its participation interest in the Letter
of Credit Obligations, and the Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i)
                                                  --------  -------          
such Bank's obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its
Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance
of such obligations, (iii) such Bank shall remain the holder of any such Note
for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, each Agent, and the
Issuing Banks and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obligations under this
Agreement, (v) such Bank shall not require the participant's consent to any
matter under this Agreement, except for change in the principal amount of any
Note in which the participant has an interest, reductions in fees or interest,
or extending the Maturity Date except as permitted in this Agreement, and (vi)
such Bank shall give prompt notice to the Borrower of each such participation
sold by such Bank.  The Borrower hereby agrees that participants shall have the
same rights under Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.11(c), and 9.07 hereof as the Bank to
the extent of their respective participations.

                                     -128-

  (f) Confidentiality.  Each Bank may furnish any information concerning the
      ---------------                                                       
Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Bank from time to time
to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and
participants); provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or
               --------                                                    
participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree in writing to
preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries received by it from such Bank.  Such Bank shall
promptly deliver a signed copy of any such confidentiality agreement to the
Borrower.

 Section 9.07  Indemnification.  The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, the
               ---------------                                               
Banks (including any lender which was a Bank hereunder prior to any full
assignment of its Commitment), the Issuing Banks, and each affiliate thereof and
their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from, and discharge,
release, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses,
liabilities, claims or damages to which any of them may become subject, insofar
as such losses, liabilities, claims or damages arise out of or result from (i)
any actual or proposed use by the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower of
the proceeds of any Advance, (ii) any breach by the Borrower or any Guarantor of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (iii) any
investigation, litigation or other proceeding (including any threatened
investigation or proceeding) relating to the foregoing, or (iv) any
Environmental Claim or requirement of Environmental Laws concerning or relating
to the present or previously-owned or operated properties, or the operations or
business, of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and the Borrower shall
reimburse each Agent, each Issuing Bank, and each Bank, and each affiliate
thereof and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, upon
demand for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees) incurred
in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding; and
expressly including any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expense
incurred by reason of the Person being indemnified's own negligence, but
excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by
reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be
indemnified.

  THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT CERTAIN OF ITS OBLIGATIONS AND
INDEMNITIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDE ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM THE
NEGLIGENCE OR ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE OF THE DOCUMENTATION AGENT, THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, THE BANKS, OR ANY OTHER PERSON BEING INDEMNIFIED.

  Section 9.08  Execution in Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in
                -------------------------  
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

  Section 9.09  Survival of Representations, Indemnifications, etc.  All
                --------------------------------------------------      
representations, warranties contained in this Agreement or made in writing by or
on behalf of the Borrower in connection herewith shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the Credit Documents, the making of the Advances
and any investigation made by or on behalf of the Banks, none of which
investigations shall diminish any Bank's right to rely on such representations
and warranties.  All obligations of the Borrower provided for in Sections 2.08,
2.09, 2.11(c), 8.05 and 9.07 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and
repayment in full of the Obligations.

  Section 9.10  Severability.  In case one or more provisions of this Agreement
                ------------                                                   
or the other Credit Documents  shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect under any applicable law, the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not be affected or
impaired thereby.

  Section 9.11  Business Loans.  The Borrower warrants and represents that the
                --------------                                                
Advances evidenced by the Notes are and shall be for business, commercial,
investment or other similar purposes and not primarily for personal, family,
household or agricultural use, as such terms are used in Chapter One ("Chapter
One") of the Texas Credit Code.  At all such times, if any, as Chapter One shall
establish a Maximum Rate, the Maximum Rate shall be the "indicated rate ceiling"
(as such term is defined in Chapter One) from time to time in effect.

  Section 9.12  Usury Not Intended.  It is the intent of the Borrower and each
                ------------------                                            
Bank in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including
conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Bank including such
applicable laws of the State of Texas and the United States of America from time
to time in effect.  In furtherance thereof, the Banks and the Borrower stipulate
and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or
the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay,
as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a
rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes hereof "interest" shall
include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws
that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the
event that, notwithstanding the

                                     -130-
<PAGE>
 
foregoing, under any circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved,
charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable
law are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess
shall be deemed to be a mistake and each Bank receiving same shall credit the
same on the principal of its Notes (or if such Notes shall have been paid in
full, refund said excess to the Borrower).  In the event that the maturity of
the Notes is accelerated by reason of any election of the holder thereof
resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the
event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that
constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate and excess
interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled
automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if
theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Notes (or, if the
applicable Notes shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower). The
provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of this
Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict
herewith.

  Section 9.13  Houston, Texas Marriott Office Space.  The Banks acknowledge and
                ------------------------------------                            
agree that the office portion of the Houston, Texas Marriott (a) will not be
subject to a Participating Lease, Franchise Agreement or Management Agreement,
(b) will not be part of the Cash Management System, (c) will, if complying with
the other requirements for qualifying as an Eligible Property, be included in
the calculation of the Borrowing Base, and (d) may be sold or transferred
separately from the hotel portion of such Hotel Property in accordance with the
requirements of a Permitted Hotel Sale.  If in connection with any such sale or
transfer, the office and hotel portions of such Hotel Property need to enter
into any agreements pertaining to the joint use of facilities, such agreements
will be subject to the reasonable approval of the Documentation Agent.

  Section 9.14  Governing Law.  This Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit
                -------------

  Section 9.15  Consent to Jurisdiction.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably
                ----------------------- 
submits to the jurisdiction of any Texas state or federal court sitting in
Dallas, Texas in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents, and the Borrower hereby
irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may
be heard and determined in such court. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any right it may have to the
defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding. The Borrower hereby agrees that service of copies of the summons and
complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or 

                                     -131-
<PAGE>
 
proceeding may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the
Borrower at its address specified in Section 9.02.  The Borrower agrees that a
final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law.  Nothing in this Section shall affect the rights of any Bank,
the Documentation Agent, or the Administrative Agent to serve legal process in
any other manner permitted by the law or affect the right of any Bank, the
Documentation Agent or the Administrative Agent to bring any action or
proceeding against the Borrower or its Property in the courts of any other
jurisdiction.

  Section 9.16  Knowledge of Borrower.  For purposes of this Agreement,
                ---------------------                                  
"knowledge of the Borrower" means the actual knowledge of any of the executive
officers and all other Responsible Officers of the Parent or the general manager
of each Hotel Property.

  Section 9.17  Banks Not in Control.  None of the covenants or other provisions
                --------------------                                            
contained in the Credit Documents shall or shall be deemed to, give the Banks
the rights or power to exercise control over the affairs and/or management of
the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any Guarantor, the power of the Banks
being limited to the right to exercise the remedies provided in the Credit
Documents; provided, however, that if any Bank becomes the owner of any stock,
or other equity interest in, any Person whether through foreclosure or
otherwise, such Bank shall be entitled (subject to requirements of law) to
exercise such legal rights as it may have by being owner of such stock, or other
equity interest in, such Person.

  Section 9.18  Headings Descriptive.  The headings of the several Sections and
                --------------------                                           
paragraphs of the Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in
any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

  Section 9.19  Time is of the Essence.  Time is of the essence under the Credit
