FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain matters discussed herein are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and as such may involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the
actual results, performance or achievements of Host Marriott Corporation (the
"Company") to be different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although
the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance
that its expectations will be attained. These risks are detailed from time to

Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any
revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any
future events or circumstances.
ITEMS 1 & 2. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
GENERAL
The Company is one of the largest owners of hotels in the world, with 99
upscale and luxury full-service hotel lodging properties in its portfolio as
of March 3, 1998, primarily located in the United States. These properties are
generally operated under the Marriott brand and managed by Marriott
International, Inc. ("Marriott International"), formerly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. Four of the Company's properties are operated under
the Ritz-Carlton brand in which Marriott International acquired a 49% interest
in April 1995. The Marriott and Ritz-Carlton brand names are among the most
respected and widely recognized brand names in the lodging industry. The
Company also owns 31 senior living communities, all of which are managed by
Marriott International. The Company's primary focus is on the acquisition of
full-service hotel lodging properties. Since the beginning of 1994 through the
end of 1997, the Company has added 68 full-service hotels representing more
than 31,000 rooms for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3.1
billion. Based on data provided by Smith Travel Research, the Company believes
that its full-service hotels consistently outperform the industry's average
occupancy rate by a significant margin and averaged 78.4% occupancy for 1997
compared to a 71.1% average occupancy for competing hotels in the upscale
full-service segment of the lodging industry (the segment which is most
representative of the Company's full-service hotels).
The upscale and luxury full-service segments of the lodging industry are
benefiting from a favorable supply and demand relationship in the United
States. Management believes that demand increases have resulted primarily from
a strong domestic economic environment and a corresponding increase in
business travel. In spite of increased demand for rooms, the room supply
growth rate in the full-service segment has not increased in kind. Management
believes that this slower increase in the supply growth rate in the full-
service segment is attributable to many factors including the limited
availability of attractive building sites for full-service hotels, the lack of
available financing for new full-service hotel construction and the
availability of existing full-service properties for sale at a discount to
their replacement cost. The relatively high occupancy rates of the Company's
hotels, along with increased demand for full-service hotel rooms, have allowed
the managers of the Company's hotels to increase average daily room rates by
selectively raising room rates and by replacing certain discounted group
business with higher-rate group and transient business. As a result, on a
comparable basis, room revenues per available room ("REVPAR") for the
Company's full-service properties increased approximately 12.6% in 1997.
Furthermore, because the lodging property operations have a high fixed cost
component, increases in REVPAR generally yield greater percentage increases in
EBITDA (as defined herein). Accordingly, the approximate 12.6% increase in
REVPAR resulted in an approximate 17.3% increase in comparable full-service
hotel EBITDA in 1997. The Company expects this supply/demand imbalance in the
upscale and luxury full-service segments to continue, which should result in
improved REVPAR and EBITDA at its hotel properties in the near term, however,
there can be no assurance that such supply/demand imbalance will continue or
that REVPAR and EBITDA will continue to improve.
In 1997, the Company diversified its real estate investment portfolio by
acquiring a portfolio of 29 senior living communities through the acquisition
of the outstanding common stock of Forum Group, Inc., a subsidiary
1
<PAGE>
of Marriott International. Subsequently, the Company acquired one additional
senior living community in 1997 and another senior living community in 1998.
All of the properties are operated by Marriott Senior Living Services, Inc., a
subsidiary of Marriott International.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's primary business strategy is to continue to focus on
maximizing the profitability of its existing full-service hotel portfolio and
acquiring additional high-quality, full-service hotel properties, including
controlling interests in joint ventures, partnerships or other entities
holding such hotel properties. Although competition for acquisitions has
increased, the Company believes that the upscale and luxury full-service
segments of the market offer opportunities to acquire assets at attractive
multiples of cash flow and at discounts to replacement value, including
underperforming hotels which can be improved by conversion to the Marriott or
Ritz-Carlton brands. The Company believes that the upscale full-service
segment is very promising because:
. There is very limited new supply of upscale and luxury full-service hotel
rooms currently under construction. According to Smith Travel Research,
from 1988 to 1991, upscale full-service room supply for the Company's
competitive set increased an average of approximately 4% annually which
resulted in an oversupply of rooms in the industry. However, this growth
slowed to an average of approximately 1% from 1992 through 1997.
Furthermore, the lead time from conception to completion of a full-service
hotel is generally three to five years or more in the markets the Company
is principally pursuing, which management believes will contribute to the
continued low growth of supply in the upscale and luxury full-service
segments through 2000.
. Many desirable hotel properties are currently held by inadvertent owners
such as banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions which
are motivated and willing sellers. In recent years, the Company has
acquired a number of properties from inadvertent owners at significant
discounts to replacement cost, including luxury hotels operating under the
Ritz-Carlton brand. While in the Company's experience to date, these
sellers have been primarily U.S. financial organizations, the Company
believes that numerous international financial institutions are also
inadvertent owners of U.S. lodging properties and have only recently begun
to dispose of such properties. The Company expects that there will be
increased opportunities to acquire U.S. lodging properties from
international financial institutions and expects to dedicate significant
resources to aggressively pursue these opportunities.
. The Company believes that there are numerous opportunities to improve the
performance of acquired hotels by replacing the existing hotel manager with
Marriott International and converting the hotel to the Marriott brand.
Based on data provided by Smith Travel Research, the Company believes that
Marriott-flagged properties have consistently outperformed the industry.
Demonstrating the strength of the Marriott brand name, the average
occupancy rate for the Company's comparable full-service properties was
79.4%, compared to the average occupancy rate of 71.1% for competing
upscale full-service hotels. In addition, the Company's comparable
properties generated a 29% REVPAR premium over its competitive set.
Accordingly, management anticipates that any additional full-service
properties acquired by the Company in the future and converted from other
brands to the Marriott brand should achieve higher occupancy rates and
average room rates than has previously been the case for those properties
as the properties begin to benefit from Marriott's brand recognition,
reservation system and group sales organization. The Company intends to
pursue additional full-service hotel acquisitions, some of which may be
conversion opportunities. Sixteen of the Company's 68 acquired full-service
hotels from the beginning of 1994 through 1997 were converted to the
Marriott brand following their acquisition.
The Company believes it is well qualified to pursue its acquisition
strategy. Management has extensive experience in acquiring and financing
lodging properties and believes its industry knowledge, relationships and
access to market information provide a competitive advantage with respect to
identifying, evaluating and acquiring hotel assets.

<PAGE>
During 1997, the Company acquired, or purchased controlling interests in, 17
full-service hotels (8,624 rooms) for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $765 million (including the assumption of approximately $418
million of debt). The Company also completed the acquisition of the 504-room
New York Marriott Financial Center, after acquiring the mortgage on the hotel
for $101 million in late 1996.
Subsequent to year-end, the Company acquired a controlling interest in the
partnership that owns the Atlanta Marriott Marquis (1,671 rooms) for
approximately $239 million, including the assumption of approximately $164
million of mortgage debt. The Company also acquired a controlling interest in
a partnership that owns three full-service hotels (totaling 1,029 rooms) for
approximately $50 million. The Company is continually engaged in discussions
with respect to other potential acquisition properties and recently entered
into an agreement to acquire the 397-room Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner,
Virginia.
The Company holds minority interests and serves as a general partner or
limited partner in various partnerships that own, as of March 3, 1998, an
aggregate of 241 hotel properties, 21 of which are full-service properties,
managed by Marriott International. In 1997, the Company acquired, or obtained
controlling interests in, five affiliated partnerships, adding 10 hotels to
its portfolio. In January, the Company acquired a controlling interest in the
Marriott Hotel Properties Limited Partnership ("MHPLP"). MHPLP owns the 1,503-
room Marriott Orlando World Center and a 50.5% interest in the 624-room
Marriott Harbor Beach Resort. In April, the Company acquired a controlling
interest in the 353-room Hanover Marriott. In the fourth quarter, the Company
acquired the Chesapeake Hotel Limited Partnership ("CHLP"). CHLP owns the 430-
room Boston Marriott Newton; the 681-room Chicago Marriott O'Hare; the 595-
room Denver Marriott Southeast; the 588-room Key Bridge Marriott; the 479-room
Minnesota Airport Marriott; and the 221-room Saddle Brook Marriott in New
Jersey. In December 1997, the Company obtained controlling interests in the
partnerships that own the 884-room Marriott's Desert Springs Resort and Spa
and Leisure Park, a 418-unit senior living community. The Company is
considering the acquisition of additional full-service hotels currently held
by such partnerships and/or additional interests in such partnerships and, as
discussed above, in January 1998 acquired a controlling interest in the
Atlanta Marriott Marquis.
In addition to investments in partnerships in which it already held minority
interests, the Company has been successful in adding properties to its
portfolio through partnership arrangements with either the seller of the
property or the incoming managers (typically Marriott International or a
Marriott franchisee). During 1997, the Company acquired interests in five such
partnerships which owned five full-service hotels, including the 197-room
Waterford Hotel in Oklahoma City, the 404-room Norfolk Waterside Marriott in
Norfolk, Virginia; the 380-room Hartford/Farmington Marriott near Farmington,
Connecticut; the 380-room Manhattan Beach Radisson Plaza in Manhattan Beach,
California; and the 299-room Ontario Airport Marriott in Ontario, California.
The two non-Marriott hotels were converted to the Marriott brand. Subsequent
to year-end, the Company acquired a controlling interest in a partnership that
owns three hotels: the 359-room Albany Marriott in New York, the 350-room San
Diego Marriott Mission Valley in California, and the 320-room Minneapolis
Marriott Southwest in Minnesota. The Company has the financial flexibility
and, due to its existing partnership investment portfolio, the administrative
infrastructure in place to accommodate such arrangements. The Company views
this ability as a competitive advantage and expects to enter into similar
arrangements to add additional properties in the future.
The Company believes there is a significant opportunity to acquire
additional Ritz-Carlton hotels due to the Company's relationship with Marriott
International and due to the number of Ritz-Carlton brand hotels currently
owned by inadvertent owners. The Company also intends to purchase luxury
hotels with the intention of converting them to the Ritz-Carlton brand.
The Company intends to increase its pool of potential acquisition candidates
by considering acquisitions of select non-Marriott and non-Ritz-Carlton hotels
that offer long-term growth potential and are consistent with the overall
quality of its current portfolio, including upscale and luxury full-service
properties in difficult to duplicate locations with high barriers to entry and
quality brands.

<PAGE>
The Company currently owns six international properties, with 2,550 rooms,
located in Canada and Mexico. The overbuilding and economic stress currently
being experienced in some European and Pacific Rim countries may eventually
lead to additional international acquisition opportunities. The Company will
acquire international properties only when acquisitions achieve satisfactory
returns after adjustments for currency and country risks.
In addition to acquisitions, the Company plans to selectively develop new
full-service hotels in major urban markets and convention/resort locations
with strong growth prospects, unique or hard to duplicate sites, high barriers
to entry of other new hotels and limited new supply. The Company intends to
target only development projects that show promise of providing financial
returns that represent a premium to acquisitions. In 1997, the Company
announced that it will develop the 717-room Tampa Convention Center Marriott
for $104 million, including a $16 million subsidy provided by the City of
Tampa.
The Company may also expand certain existing hotel properties where strong
performance and market demand exists. Expansions to existing properties
creates a lower risk to the Company as the success of the market is generally
known and development time is significantly shorter than new construction. The
Company recently committed to add approximately 500 rooms and an additional
15,000 square feet of meeting space to the 1,503-room Marriott Orlando World
Center.
In addition to its primary business strategy of expanding and maximizing the
profitability of the Company's full-service hotel portfolio, the Company
believes that its diversification into senior living communities will offer
strong current economic benefits and growth prospects. The Company believes
that this diversification is a natural extension of its hotel ownership
strategy: high quality assets operated by Marriott International. The demand
for retirement communities and assisted living facilities is increasing as the
population of the 85 and over age group is expected to double between 1990 and
2000 (per the Bureau of Census). This growth in the 85 and over population
should generate strong demand for senior living communities. The Company
intends to grow its portfolio of quality senior living communities through the
acquisition of existing properties and the development of new communities.
In 1997, the Company acquired a portfolio of 29 senior living communities
with 6,127 units from a subsidiary of Marriott International for approximately
$460 million, including approximately $270 million of debt. The Company plans
to add approximately 1,060 units to these communities for approximately $107
million through an expansion plan which will be completed in 1999 (549 units
of the expansion plan were completed as of January 2, 1998). The Company also
acquired the 418-unit Leisure Park senior living community in Lakewood, New
Jersey in late 1997 and the Gables at Winchester, a 124-unit senior living
community outside of Boston in early 1998. The Gables at Winchester
represented Host Marriott's first acquisition of an independently-operated
community which was converted to Marriott management. In addition, the Company
has conditionally agreed to purchase two Marriott Brighton Gardens senior
living communities totaling 320 units to be built in Denver and Colorado
Springs, Colorado, after the anticipated completion of such communities in the
first quarter of 1999, if they meet certain operating performance criteria.
HOTEL LODGING INDUSTRY
The upscale and luxury full-service segments of the lodging industry
continue to benefit from a favorable cyclical imbalance in the supply/demand
relationship in which room demand growth has exceeded supply growth, which has
remained fairly limited. The lodging industry posted strong gains in revenues
and profits in 1997, as demand growth continued to outpace additions to
supply. The Company believes that upscale and luxury full-service hotel room
supply growth will remain limited through at least 1998. Accordingly, the
Company believes this supply/demand imbalance will result in improving
occupancy and room rates which should result in improved REVPAR and operating
profit.
Following a period of significant overbuilding in the mid-to-late 1980s, the
lodging industry experienced a severe downturn. Since 1991, new hotel
construction, excluding casino-related construction, has been modest and
largely offset by the number of rooms taken out of service each year. Due to
an increase in travel and an
4
<PAGE>
improving economy, hotel occupancy has grown steadily over the past several
years, and room rates have improved. The Company believes that room demand for
upscale and luxury full-service properties will continue to grow at
approximately the rate of inflation. Increased room demand should result in
increased hotel occupancy and room rates. According to Smith Travel Research,
upscale full-service occupancy for the Company and its competitive set grew in
1997 to 72.5%, while room rate growth continued to exceed inflation. While
room demand has been rising, new hotel supply growth has been minimal. Smith
Travel Research data shows that upscale full-service room supply increased an
average of only 1% annually from 1991 through 1997. The increase in room
demand and minimal growth in new hotel supply has also led to increased room
rates. The Company believes that these recent trends will continue, with
overall occupancy increasing slightly and room rates increasing at more than
one and one-half times the rate of inflation in 1998.
As a result of the overbuilding in the mid-to-late 1980s, many full-service
hotels built have not performed as originally planned. Cash flow has often not
covered debt service requirements, causing lenders (e.g., banks, insurance
companies, and savings and loans) to foreclose and become "inadvertent owners"
who are motivated to sell these assets. In the Company's experience to date,
these sellers have been primarily U.S. financial organizations. The Company
believes that numerous international financial institutions are also
inadvertent owners of lodging properties and expects there will be increased
opportunities to acquire lodging properties from international financial
institutions. While the interest of inadvertent owners to sell has created
attractive acquisition opportunities with strong current yields, the lack of
supply growth and increasing room night demand should contribute to higher
long-term returns on invested capital. Given the relatively long lead time to
develop urban, convention and resort hotels, as well as the lack of project
financing, management believes the growth in room supply in this segment will
be limited, at least until the year 2000.
HOTEL LODGING PROPERTIES
The Company's lodging portfolio as of March 20, 1998, consists of 99 upscale
and luxury full-service hotels with a total of over 48,000 rooms. The
Company's hotel lodging properties represent quality assets in the upscale and
luxury full-service lodging segment. All but three of the Company's hotel
properties are operated under the Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brand names. The
three hotels (representing an aggregate of 681 rooms, or approximately 1% of
the Company's total rooms) that do not carry the Marriott or Ritz-Carlton
brand have not been converted to the Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brand due to
their size, quality and/or contractual commitments which would not permit such
conversion.
One commonly used indicator of market performance for hotels is room revenue
per available room, or REVPAR, which measures daily room revenues generated on
a per room basis. This does not include food and beverage or other ancillary
revenues generated by the property. REVPAR represents the combination of the
average daily room rate charged and the average daily occupancy achieved. The
Company has reported annual increases in REVPAR since 1993.
To maintain the overall quality of the Company's lodging properties, each
property undergoes refurbishments and capital improvements on a regularly
scheduled basis. Typically, refurbishing has been provided at intervals of
five years, based on an annual review of the condition of each property. For
1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company spent $131 million, $87 million and $56
million, respectively, on capital improvements to existing properties. As a
result of these expenditures, the Company has been able to maintain high
quality rooms at its properties.
The Company's hotels primarily include Marriott and Ritz-Carlton brand
hotels and average nearly 500 rooms. Twelve of the Company's hotels have more
than 750 rooms. Hotel facilities typically include meeting and banquet
facilities, a variety of restaurants and lounges, swimming pools, gift shops,
and parking facilities. The Company's hotels primarily serve business and
pleasure travelers and group meetings at locations in downtown and suburban
areas, near airports and at resort convention locations throughout the United
States. The properties are well situated in locations where there are
significant barriers to entry by competitors. Marriott
5
<PAGE>
International serves as manager for 83 of the 99 hotels owned by the Company
and all but three are part of Marriott International's full-service hotel
system. The average age of the properties is 15 years, although several of the
properties have had substantial, more recent renovations or major additions.
In 1997, for example, the Company substantially completed a two-year $30
million capital improvement program at the New York Marriott Marquis which
included renovations to all guestrooms, refurbishment of ballrooms, restaurant
updates and retail additions. In early 1998, the Company completed a $15
million capital improvement program at the Denver Marriott Tech Center. The
program included replacement of guestroom interiors, remodeling of the lobby,
ballroom, meeting rooms and corridors, as well as renovations to the exterior
of the building.

85-room Sacramento property, which is operated as an independent hotel.
Revenues in 1997 for nearly all of the Company's hotels were improved or
comparable to 1996. This improvement was achieved through steady increases in
customer demand, as well as yield management techniques applied by the manager
to maximize REVPAR on a property-by-property basis. REVPAR for comparable
properties increased 12.6% as average room rates increased almost 11% and
average occupancy increased over one percentage point. Overall, this resulted
in outstanding sales growth. Sales expanded at a 9% rate for comparable hotels
and house profit margins increased by over two percentage points. The Company
believes that its hotels consistently outperform the industry's average REVPAR
growth rates. The relatively high occupancy rates of the Company's hotels,
along with increased demand for upscale and luxury full-service hotel rooms,
allowed the managers of the Company's hotels to increase average room rates by
selectively raising room rates and by replacing certain discounted group
business with higher-rate group and transient business. The Company believes
that these favorable REVPAR growth trends should continue due to the limited
new construction of full-service properties and the expected improvements from
the conversion of seven properties to the Marriott brand in 1996 and 1997.
A number of the Company's full-service hotel acquisitions were converted to
the Marriott brand upon acquisition; most recently the Coronado Island
Marriott Resort and the Manhattan Beach Marriott were converted in the fourth
quarter of 1997. The conversion of these properties to the Marriott brand is
intended to increase occupancy and room rates as a result of Marriott
International's nationwide marketing and reservation systems,
6
<PAGE>
its Marriott Rewards program, group sales force, as well as customer
recognition of the Marriott brand name. The Marriott brand name has
consistently delivered occupancy and REVPAR premiums over other brands. Based
on data provided by Smith Travel Research, the Company's comparable properties
have an eight percentage point occupancy premium and a 29% REVPAR premium over
its competitive set. The Company actively manages these conversions and, in
many cases, has worked closely with the manager to selectively invest in
enhancements to the physical product to make the property more attractive to
guests or more efficient to operate. The invested capital with respect to
these properties is primarily used for the improvement of common areas, as
well as upgrading soft and hard goods (i.e., carpets, drapes, paint, furniture
and additional amenities). The conversion process typically causes periods of
disruption to these properties as selected rooms and common areas are
temporarily taken out of service. Historically, the conversion properties have
shown improvements as the benefits of Marriott International's marketing and
reservation programs, group sales force and customer service initiatives take
hold. In addition, these properties have generally been integrated into
Marriott International's systems covering purchasing and distribution,
insurance, telecommunications and payroll processing.
The Company's focus is on maximizing profitability throughout the portfolio
by concentrating on key objectives. The Company has assembled a highly skilled
asset management team with extensive experience in hotel management and
operations, including revenue and operations management and capital
expenditure monitoring. The Company's experienced asset management team works
with the hotel managers to achieve these key objectives, which include
reducing property-level overhead by sharing management positions with other
jointly managed hotels in the vicinity, evaluating marginal restaurant
operations and selectively making additional investments where favorable
incremental returns are expected, including the expansion of certain
properties.
The Company and its hotel managers will continue to focus on cost control in
an attempt to ensure that hotel sales increases serve to maximize house and
operating profit. While control of fixed costs serves to improve profit
margins as hotel sales increase, it also results in more properties reaching
financial performance levels that allow the managers to share in the growth of
profits in the form of incentive management fees. The Company believes this is
a positive development as it strengthens the alignment of the Company's and
the managers' interests, which helps to drive further increases in
profitability but moderates operating leverage.
During 1996, the Company completed its divestiture of limited-service
properties through the sale and leaseback of 16 Courtyard properties and 18
Residence Inn properties. These properties, along with 37 Courtyard properties
sold and leased back during 1995, continue to be reflected in the Company's
revenues and are managed by Marriott International under long-term management
agreements. During 1997, limited-service properties represented 2% of the
Company's hotel EBITDA, compared to 5% in 1996, and the Company expects this
percentage to continue to decrease as the Company continues to acquire full-
service properties.
MARKETING
At March 20, 1998, 83 of the Company's 99 hotel properties are managed by
Marriott International as Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brand hotels. Thirteen of
the 16 remaining hotels are operated as Marriott brand hotels under franchise
agreements with Marriott International. The Company believes that these
Marriott-managed and franchised properties will continue to enjoy competitive
advantages arising from their participation in the Marriott International
hotel system. Marriott International's nationwide marketing programs and
reservation systems as well as the advantage of the strong customer preference
for Marriott brands should also help these properties to maintain or increase
their premium over competitors in both occupancy and room rates. Repeat guest
business in the Marriott hotel system is enhanced by the recently created
Marriott Rewards program, which expanded the previous Marriott Honored Guest
Awards program. Marriott Rewards membership includes more than 7.5 million
members.
The Marriott reservation system provides Marriott reservation agents
complete descriptions of the rooms available for sale, and up-to-date rate
information from the properties. The reservation system also features
connectivity to airline reservation systems, providing travel agents with
access to available rooms inventory for
7
<PAGE>
all Marriott and Ritz-Carlton lodging properties. In addition, software at
Marriott's centralized reservations centers enables agents to immediately
identify the nearest Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brand property with available
rooms when a caller's first choice is fully occupied.
SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITIES
At March 20, 1998, the Company's senior living communities portfolio
consists of 31 upscale properties with over 7,200 units. The Company's senior
living communities represent high quality assets in the senior living lodging
segment. The communities offer a combination of independent living, assisted
living and nursing components that differ mostly by the level of senior care
services provided.
Independent living components, which represent 54% of the Company's senior
living units, contain a variety of accommodations, together with amenities
such as dining facilities, lounges, and game and craft rooms. All residents of
the independent living components are provided security, meals and
housekeeping. Emergency healthcare service is available upon demand 24 hours a
day from on-site staff, and each independent living unit is equipped with an
emergency call system. The independent living components of the properties
generally consist of apartments or villas. Each resident enters into a
residency agreement that may be terminated by the resident on short notice.
Although there can be no assurance that available independent living units
will be reoccupied as residency agreements expire or are terminated, since
1988 at least 80% of the residents of the apartments and villas managed by
Marriott International have renewed their residency agreements from year to
year.
Assisted living components, which represent 22% of the Company's senior
living units, provide a supportive environment that encourages independent
living. Residents have private or semi-private units, eat meals in a private
dining room, and are provided the added services of scheduled activities,
housekeeping and linen service, preventive health surveillance, periodic
health monitoring, assistance with activities of daily living, and emergency
care.
Nursing components, which represent 24% of the Company's senior living
units, provide residents a full range of nursing care. Residents have private
or semi-private rooms and share communal dining and social facilities. In most
instances, each resident of the independent living component of a property is
entitled to priority admission in the assisted living (if any) or nursing
component.
Some communities also provide ancillary healthcare services, including the
operation of adult daycare centers on the premises of some communities. All
communities are managed by Marriott International under long-term management
agreements.
Similar to the hotel segment, one commonly used indicator of market
performance for senior living communities is revenue per available unit,
("REVPAU"), which measures charges for independent living units and assisted
living suites and nursing beds on a per unit basis. This does not include any
ancillary revenues from the properties, which are generated on a "fee for
service" basis for supplementary items requested by residents. REVPAU
represents the combination of the average daily unit rate charged and the
average daily occupancy achieved.
The chart below sets forth performance information for the Company's senior
living communities for 1997:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Number of properties............................................. 30
Number of units.................................................. 7,094
Average daily rate............................................... $ 83.88
Occupancy percentage............................................. 91.7%
REVPAU........................................................... $ 76.92
</TABLE>
During 1997, the average occupancy at the Company's senior living
communities was approximately 92% and the average daily rate was $84,
resulting in REVPAU of $77. Overall occupancies for 1997 were lower than
8
<PAGE>
the historical and future anticipated occupancies due to the significant
number of expansion units added during the year and the time required to fill
the expansion units.
The Company is an active owner of its senior living communities portfolio.
The Company focuses on maximizing profitability throughout the portfolio. The
Company's asset management department works closely with Marriott
International to identify and evaluate opportunities to increase profitability
by making selective investments where favorable incremental returns are
expected, including the expansion of certain properties, or implementing new
cost control programs.

1998 ACQUISITIONS
In January 1998, the Company acquired a controlling interest in the Atlanta
Marquis Limited Partnership, which owns the 1,671-room Atlanta Marriott
Marquis Hotel, for approximately $239 million, including the assumption of
approximately $164 million of mortgage debt. In March 1998, the Company
acquired a controlling interest in the partnership that owns three hotels: the
359-room Albany Marriott, the 350-room San Diego Marriott Mission Valley and
the 320-room Minneapolis Marriott Southwest for approximately $50 million. The
Company also entered into an agreement to acquire The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons
Corner, Virginia (397 rooms).
In January 1998, the Company acquired, for approximately $21 million, the
124-unit senior living community, the Gables at Winchester in suburban Boston.
In February 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 41% interest in FRC I
Limited Partnership ("FRC") for approximately $3 million. FRC owns the
Remington Club II, a 222-unit full-service senior living community in Rancho
Bernardo, California. The Company has also entered into a conditional purchase
agreement to acquire two 160-unit Marriott Brighton Gardens assisted living
communities located in Denver and Colorado Springs, Colorado. After the
completion of construction in the first quarter of 1999, the Company may
acquire these properties for $35 million if they achieve certain operating
performance criteria.
INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATED PARTNERSHIPS
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries also manage the Company's
partnership investments and conduct the partnership services business. As
such, at January 2, 1998, the Company and/or its subsidiaries own an
investment in, and generally serve as a general partner or managing general
partner for, 20 unconsolidated partnerships which collectively own 22 Marriott
full-service hotels, 120 Courtyard hotels, 50 Residence Inns and 50 Fairfield
Inns. In addition, the Company holds notes receivable (net of reserves) from
partnerships totaling approximately $23 million at January 2, 1998.
12
<PAGE>
As the managing general partner, the Company and its subsidiaries are
responsible for the day-to-day management of partnership operations, which
includes payment of partnership obligations from partnership funds,
preparation of financial reports and tax returns and communications with
lenders, limited partners and regulatory bodies. The Company or its
subsidiaries are usually reimbursed for the cost of providing these services.
Hotel properties owned by the unconsolidated partnerships generally were
acquired from the Company or its subsidiaries in connection with limited
partnership offerings. These hotel properties are currently operated under
management agreements with Marriott International. As the managing general
partner of such partnerships, the Company or its subsidiaries oversee and
monitor Marriott International's performance pursuant to these agreements.
The Company's interests in these partnerships range from 1% to 50%. Cash
distributions provided from these partnerships are tied to the overall
performance of the underlying properties and the overall level of debt owed by
the partnership. Partnership distributions to the Company were $5 million in
each of 1997 and 1996 and $3 million in 1995. All partnership debt is
nonrecourse to the Company and its subsidiaries, except that the Company is
contingently liable under various guarantees of debt obligations of certain of
these partnerships. Such commitments are limited in the aggregate to $60
million at January 2, 1998. Subsequent to year-end, such maximum commitments
were reduced to $20 million in connection with the refinancing and acquisition
of a controlling interest in the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. In most cases,
fundings of such guarantees represent loans to the respective partnerships.
In December 1997, the Company, on behalf of six of its subsidiaries, filed a
preliminary Prospectus/Consent Solicitation with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which describes the potential consolidation of six of the
Company's affiliated partnerships into a single operating partnership and the
formation of a new general partner which would intend to qualify as a real
estate trust (the "Limited Service REIT") and be listed on the New York Stock
Exchange. The partnerships, which own 219 limited-service hotels, that are
anticipated to participate in the consolidation into a Limited Service REIT
are Courtyard by Marriott Limited Partnership; Courtyard by Marriott II
Limited Partnership; Marriott Residence Inn Limited Partnership; Marriott
Residence Inn II Limited Partnership; Marriott Residence Inn USA Limited
Partnership; and Fairfield Inn by Marriott Limited Partnership. The potential
Limited Service REIT would have separate management from the Company and would
focus solely on the ownership and acquisition of limited-service and extended-
stay hotels. The Limited Service REIT, if established, is not expected to have
a significant economic impact on the Company.
To satisfy certain tax requirements related to the nature of the income
received by the REIT, the assets would be leased to subsidiaries of the
Company. All of the hotels are, and will continue to be, managed by Marriott
International.
COMPETITION
The Company's hotels compete with several other major lodging brands in each
segment in which they operate. Competition in the industry is based primarily
on the level of service, quality of accommodations, convenience of locations
and room rates. The following table presents key participants in segments of
the lodging industry in which the Company competes:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SEGMENT REPRESENTATIVE PARTICIPANTS
- ------- ---------------------------
<S> <C>
Luxury Full-Service..... Ritz-Carlton; Four Seasons
Upscale Full-Service.... Marriott Hotels, Resorts and Suites; Crowne Plaza; Doubletree;
Hyatt; Hilton; Radisson; Red Lion; Sheraton; Westin; Wyndham
</TABLE>
The Company's senior living communities compete with facilities of varying
similarity in the respective geographical market areas in which the
communities are located. Competing facilities are generally operated on a
regional and local basis by religious groups and other nonprofit
organizations, as well as by public and private
13
<PAGE>
operators. There are a limited number of operators on a national basis. The
independent living components of the communities face competition from all the
various types of residential opportunities available to the elderly. However,
the number of communities that offer on-premises healthcare services is
limited. The assisted living and nursing components of the communities compete
with other assisted living and nursing facilities. Because the target market
segment of the communities (i.e., full-service retirement communities) is
relatively narrow, the risk of competition may be higher than with some other
types of retirement communities and assisted living and nursing facilities
developed in close proximity to them.
Significant competitive factors for attracting residents to the independent
living components of the communities include price, physical appearance, and
amenities and services offered. Additional competitive factors for attracting
residents to the assisted living and nursing components of the communities
include quality of care, reputation, physician and nursing services available,
and family preferences. The Company believes that its senior living
communities rate high in each of these categories, except that its senior
living communities are generally more expensive than competing facilities.
OTHER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
At January 2, 1998, the Company owned 12 undeveloped parcels of vacant land,
totaling approximately 83 acres, originally purchased primarily for the
development of hotels or senior living communities. The Company sold 17
parcels during 1997 for proceeds of approximately $30 million. The Company may
sell its remaining undeveloped parcels from time to time when market
conditions are favorable. Some of the properties may be developed as part of a
long-term strategy to realize the maximum value of these parcels. The Company
also has lease and sublease activity relating primarily to its former
restaurant operations.
In the fourth quarter of 1995, management instituted a program to
aggressively liquidate certain non-income producing assets and to reinvest the
proceeds in the acquisition of full-service hotels. As part of this program,
management determined that a 174-acre parcel of undeveloped land in
Germantown, Maryland, that was to be developed into an office project over an
extended period of time would no longer be developed and instead decided to
attempt to sell the property. Accordingly, the Company recorded a pre-tax
charge of $60 million in the fourth quarter of 1995 to reduce the asset to its
estimated sales value. In 1997, the Company sold a portion of the land parcel
for its approximate net book value of approximately $11 million.
SPECIAL DIVIDEND
On December 29, 1995, the Company distributed to its shareholders through a
special dividend (the "Special Dividend") all of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Host Marriott Services Corporation ("HM Services"), formerly a
direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company which, as of the date of the
Special Dividend, owned and operated the food, beverage and merchandise
concessions at airports, on tollroads and at stadiums and arenas and other
tourist attractions (the "Operating Group"). The Special Dividend provided
Company shareholders with one share of common stock of HM Services for every
five shares of Company common stock held by such shareholders on the record
date of December 22, 1995.
For the purpose of governing certain of the ongoing relationships between
the Company and HM Services after the Special Dividend, and to provide an
orderly transition, the Company and HM Services have entered into various
agreements, including agreements to a) allocate certain responsibilities with
respect to employee compensation, benefit and labor matters; b) define the
respective parties' rights and obligations with respect to deficiencies and
refunds of Federal, state and other income or franchise taxes relating to the
Company's businesses for tax years prior to the Special Dividend and with
respect to certain tax attributes of the Company's after the Special Dividend;
c) provide certain administrative and other support services to each other for
a transitional period on an as-needed basis; and d) to provide for the
issuance of HM Services common stock in connection with the exercise of
certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock.

<PAGE>
RELATIONSHIP WITH MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL; MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION
Prior to October 8, 1993, the Company was named "Marriott Corporation." In
addition to conducting its existing hotel ownership business and the business
of HM Services (prior to its distribution to shareholders through the Special
Dividend; see Items 1 and 2, "Business and Properties--Special Dividend"),
Marriott Corporation engaged in lodging and senior living services management,
timeshare resort development and operation, food service and facilities
management and other contract services businesses (the "Management Business").
On October 8, 1993, the Company completed the Marriott International
Distribution (as defined herein). Marriott International conducts the
Management Business as a separate publicly traded company.
The Company and Marriott International have entered into agreements which
provide, among other things, for Marriott International to (i) manage or
franchise various hotel properties and senior living communities owned or
leased by the Company, (ii) advance up to $225 million to the Company under
the Marriott International line of credit (the "MI Line of Credit") which was
terminated in 1997, (iii) provide first mortgage financing of $109 million for
the Philadelphia Marriott Hotel which was repaid in December 1996, (iv)
provide financing for certain Company acquisitions, (v) guarantee the
Company's performance in connection with certain loans or other obligations,
and (vi) provide certain limited administrative services. The Company views
its relationship with Marriott International as providing various advantages,
including access to high quality management services, strong brand names and
superior marketing and reservation systems.
Marriott International has the right to purchase up to 20% of the voting
stock of the Company if certain events involving a change of control of the
Company occur.
EMPLOYEES
The Company and its subsidiaries collectively have approximately 225
corporate employees, and approximately 300 other employees (primarily employed
at one of its non-U.S. hotels) which are covered by collective bargaining
agreements that are subject to review and renewal on a regular basis. The
Company believes that it has good relations with its labor unions and has not
experienced any material business interruptions as a result of labor disputes.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS
Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and
regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be
liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic
substances on, under or in such property. Such laws may impose liability
whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the
presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. In addition, certain
environmental laws and common law principles could be used to impose liability
for release of asbestos-containing materials ("ACMs"), and third parties may
seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury
associated with exposure to released ACMs. Environmental laws also may impose
restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or business may be
operated, and these restrictions may require expenditures. In connection with
its current or prior ownership or operation of hotels, the Company may be
potentially liable for any such costs or liabilities. Although the Company is
currently not aware of any material environmental claims pending or threatened
against it, no assurance can be given that a material environmental claim will
not be asserted against the Company.
Healthcare facility operations are subject to federal, state, and local
government regulations. Facilities are subject to periodic inspection by state
licensing agencies to determine whether the standards necessary for continued
licensure are being maintained. In granting and renewing licenses, the state
agencies consider, among other things, buildings, furniture, and equipment;
qualifications of administrative personnel and staff; quality of care; and
compliance with laws and regulations relating to operation of facilities.
State licensure of a nursing facility is a prerequisite to certification for
participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Requirements for
licensure of assisted living components are generally less comprehensive and
stringent than requirements for licensure of nursing facilities. Most states
do not have licensure requirements for the independent living
15
<PAGE>
components of senior living communities, except to the extent that such
independent living components are associated with the provision of healthcare
services. The Company's communities are presently in compliance with all
applicable federal, state and local regulations with respect to licensure
requirements. However, because those requirements are subject to change, there
can be no assurance that the Company's communities will be able to maintain
their licenses upon a change in standards, and future changes in those
standards could necessitate substantial expenditures by the Company to comply
therewith.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in litigation incidental to
their businesses. Management believes that such litigation is not significant
and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition and results of operations.
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company reached a settlement in a lawsuit
against Trinity Industries and others for claims related to construction on
the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel. In settlement of the lawsuit, the Company
and its affiliate received a cash settlement of approximately $70 million.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
None.
16
<PAGE>
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Stock
Exchange, the Pacific Stock Exchange and the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and
is traded under the symbol "HMT." The following table sets forth, for the
fiscal periods indicated, the high and low sales prices per share of the
common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape. The
Company has not declared any cash dividends on the common stock during the two
fiscal years ended January 2, 1998, and through the date hereof. The Company
currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, for use in its business
and does not anticipate paying regular cash dividends on the common stock. As
of January 2, 1998, there were approximately 50,759 holders of record of
common stock.

1998. The income statement data for fiscal year 1993 does not reflect the
Marriott International Distribution and related transactions and, accordingly,
the table presents data for the Company that includes amounts attributable to
Marriott International. As a result of the Marriott International Distribution
and related transactions, the assets, liabilities and businesses of the
Company have changed substantially.

realizable value and a $60 million pre-tax charge to write down an
undeveloped land parcel to its estimated sales value. In 1995, the Company
recognized a $20 million extraordinary loss, net of taxes, on the
extinguishment of debt.
(3) In 1997, the Company recognized a $3 million extraordinary gain, net of
taxes, on the extinguishment of certain debt. In 1994, the Company
recognized a $6 million extraordinary loss, net of taxes, on the required
redemption of senior notes. In 1993, the Company recognized a $4 million
extraordinary loss, net of taxes, on the completion of an exchange offer
for its then outstanding bonds.
(4) Operating results for 1993 include the operations of Marriott
International only through the Marriott International Distribution date of
October 8, 1993. These operations had a net pre-tax effect on income of
$211 million for the year ended December 31, 1993 and are recorded as
"Profit from operations distributed to Marriott International" on the
Company's consolidated statements of operations and are, therefore, not
included in sales, operating profit before corporate expenses and
interest, interest expense and interest income for the same period. The
net pre-tax effect of these operations is, however, included in income
before income taxes, extraordinary item and cumulative effect of changes
in accounting principles and in net income for the same periods. Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes," was adopted in the first quarter of 1993. In the second quarter of
1993, the Company changed its accounting method for assets held for sale.
During 1993, the Company recorded a $34 million credit to reflect the
adoption of SFAS No. 109 and a $32 million charge, net of taxes, to
reflect the change in its accounting method for assets held for sale.
(5) Operating results in 1993 included pre-tax expenses related to the
Marriott International Distribution totaling $13 million.
(6) The Company recorded a loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, as
a result of the Special Dividend of $61 million in 1995, $6 million in
1994, and $4 million in 1993. The 1995 loss from discontinued operations
includes a pre-tax charge of $47 million for the adoption of SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting For the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed Of," a pre-tax $15 million restructuring charge and an
extraordinary loss of $10 million, net of taxes, on the extinguishment of
debt.
(7) Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding plus other dilutive securities. Diluted earnings (loss) per
share has not been adjusted for the impact of the Convertible Preferred
Securities for 1997 and 1996 and for the comprehensive stock plan and
warrants for 1994 through 1996, as they are anti-dilutive.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues primarily represent house profit from the Company's hotel
properties and senior living communities, net gains (losses) on property
transaction and equity in the earnings (losses) of affiliates. House profit
reflects the net revenues flowing to the Company as property owner and
represents gross hotel and senior living communities' sales less property-
level expenses (excluding depreciation, management fees, real and personal
property taxes, ground and equipment rent, insurance and certain other costs
which are classified as operating costs and expenses included in the
accompanying financial statements). Other operating costs and expenses include
idle land carrying costs and certain other costs.
The Company's hotel operating costs and expenses are, to a great extent,
fixed. Therefore, the Company derives substantial operating leverage from
increases in revenue. This operating leverage is somewhat diluted, however, by
the impact of base management fees which are calculated as a percentage of
sales, variable lease payments and incentive management fees tied to operating
performance above certain established levels. Successful hotel performance
resulted in certain of the Company's properties reaching levels which allowed
the manager to share in the growth of profits in the form of higher management
fees. The Company expects that this trend will continue in 1998 as the upscale
and luxury full-service segments continue to strengthen. At these higher
operating levels, the Company's and the managers' interests are closely
aligned, which helps to drive further increases in profitability, but
moderates operating leverage.
For the periods discussed herein, the Company's hotel properties have
experienced substantial increases in room revenues generated per available
room ("REVPAR"). REVPAR is a commonly used indicator of market performance for
hotels which represents the combination of the average daily room rate charged
and the average occupancy achieved. REVPAR does not include food and beverage
or other ancillary revenues generated by the property. The REVPAR increase
primarily represents strong percentage increases in room rates, while
occupancies have generally increased for its full-service properties.
Increases in average room rates have generally been achieved by the managers
through shifting occupancies away from discounted group business to higher-
rated group and transient business and by selectively increasing room rates.
This has been made possible by increased travel due to improved economic
conditions and by the favorable supply/demand characteristics existing in the
upscale and luxury full-service segments of the lodging industry. The Company
expects this favorable relationship between supply growth and demand growth to
continue in the luxury and upscale markets in which it operates, which should
result in improved REVPAR and operating profits at its hotel properties in the
near term. However, there can be no assurance that REVPAR will continue to
increase in the future.
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
Revenues. Revenues primarily represent house profit from the Company's hotel
and senior living communities properties, net gains (losses) on property
transactions and equity in earnings of affiliates. Revenues increased $415
million, or 57%, to $1.1 billion for 1997. The Company's revenue and operating
profit were impacted by:
. improved lodging results for comparable full-service hotel properties;
. the addition of 23 full-service hotel properties during 1996 and 18 full-
service properties during 1997;
. the addition of 30 senior living communities in 1997;
. the 1996 sale and leaseback of 16 Courtyard properties and 18 Residence
Inns;
. the 1997 results including 52 weeks versus 53 weeks in 1996.
Hotel revenues increased $376 million, or 52%, to $1.1 billion in 1997, as
all three of the Company's lodging concepts reported growth in REVPAR. Hotel
sales increased $864 million, or 44%, to over $2.8 billion in 1997, reflecting
the REVPAR increases for comparable units and the addition of full-service
properties during 1996 and 1997.
19
<PAGE>
Improved results for the Company's full-service hotels were driven by strong
increases in REVPAR for comparable units of 12.6% in 1997. Results were
further enhanced by a more than two percentage point increase in the house
profit margin for comparable full-service properties. On a comparable basis
for the Company's full-service properties, average room rates increased almost
11%, while average occupancy increased over one percentage point.
Revenues generated from the Company's 1997 third quarter acquisition of 29
senior living communities totaled $37 million. During 1997, average occupancy
of the communities was 92% and the average per diem rate was $84, which
resulted in 1997 revenue per available unit of $77. Overall occupancies for
1997 were lower than the historical and anticipated future occupancies due to
the significant number of expansion units added during the year, the overall
disruption to the communities as a result of the construction and the time
required to fill the expansion units. Senior living communities' sales totaled
$111 million for 1997.
Operating Costs and Expenses. Operating costs and expenses principally
consist of depreciation, management fees, real and personal property taxes,
ground, building and equipment rent, insurance, and certain other costs.
Operating costs and expenses increased $199 million to $698 million for 1997,
primarily representing increased hotel and senior living communities'
operating costs, including depreciation and management fees. Hotel operating
costs increased $188 million to $649 million, primarily due to the addition of
41 full-service properties during 1996 and 1997, and increased management fees
and rentals tied to improved property results. As a percentage of hotel
revenues, hotel operating costs and expenses decreased to 59% of revenues for
1997, from 64% of revenues for 1996, reflecting the impact of increased 1997
revenues on relatively fixed operating costs and expenses. The Company's
senior living communities' operating cost and expenses were $20 million (54%
of revenues) for 1997.
Operating Profit. As a result of the changes in revenues and operating costs
and expenses discussed above, the Company's operating profit increased $216
million, or 93%, to $449 million in 1997. Hotel operating profit increased
$188 million, or 73%, to $444 million, or 41% of hotel revenues, for 1997
compared to $256 million, or 36% of hotel revenues, for 1996. In nearly all
markets, the Company's hotels recorded improvements in comparable operating
results. In particular, the Company's hotels in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic
and Pacific coast regions benefited from the upscale and luxury full-service
room supply and demand imbalance. Hotels in New York City, Philadelphia, San
Francisco/Silicon Valley and in Southern California performed particularly
well. In 1998, the Company expects results to be strong in these markets and
other gateway cities in which the Company owns hotels. In 1997, the Company's
suburban Atlanta properties (three properties totaling 1,022 rooms) generally
reported decreased results due to higher activity in 1996 related to the
Summer Olympics and the impact of the additional supply added to the suburban
areas. However, the majority of the Company's hotel rooms in Atlanta are in
the core business districts in downtown and Buckhead where they realized
strong year-over-year results and were only marginally impacted by the
additional supply.
The Company's senior living communities generated $17 million (46% of
revenues) of operating profit.
Minority Interest. Minority interest expense increased $26 million to $32
million for 1997, primarily reflecting the impact of the consolidation of
affiliated partnerships and the acquisition of controlling interests in newly-
formed partnerships during 1996 and 1997.
Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses increased $4 million to $47 million
in 1997. As a percentage of revenues, corporate expenses decreased to 4.1% of
revenues in 1997 from 5.9% of revenues in 1996. This reflects the Company's
efforts to carefully control its corporate expenses in spite of the
substantial growth in revenues.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $65 million to $302 million in
1997, primarily due to the additional mortgage debt of approximately $1.1
billion assumed in connection with the 1996 and 1997 full-service hotel
additions, approximately $315 million incurred in connection with the
acquisition of the Forum Group, Inc., in the third quarter of 1997 and the
Leisure Park senior living community in December 1997, as well as the issuance
of $600 million of 8 7/8% senior notes (the "New Senior Notes") in July 1997.
20
<PAGE>
Dividends on Convertible Preferred Securities of Subsidiary Trust. The
dividends on the Convertible Preferred Securities reflect the dividends on the
$550 million in 6.75% Convertible Preferred Securities issued by the Company
in December 1996.
Interest Income. Interest income increased $4 million to $52 million for
1997, primarily reflecting the interest income on the available proceeds
generated by the December 1996 offering of Convertible Preferred Securities
and the proceeds generated by the issuance of the New Senior Notes in July
1997.
Income (Loss) Before Extraordinary Items. Income before extraordinary items
for 1997 was $47 million, compared to a $13 million loss before extraordinary
items for 1996 as a result of the items discussed above.
Extraordinary Gain (Loss). In March 1997, the Company purchased 100% of the
outstanding bonds secured by a first mortgage on the San Francisco Marriott
Hotel. The Company purchased the bonds for $219 million, which was an $11
million discount to the face value of $230 million. In connection with the
redemption and defeasance of the bonds, the Company recognized an
extraordinary gain of $5 million, which represents the $11 million discount
less the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees, net of taxes. In
December 1997, the Company refinanced the mortgage debt secured by the
Marriott's Orlando World Center. In connection with the refinancing, the
Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $2 million, which represents
payment of a prepayment penalty and the write-off of unamortized deferred
financing fees, net of taxes.
Net (Loss) Income. The Company's net income in 1997 was $50 million,
compared to a net loss of $13 million in 1996. Basic earnings per common share
was $.25 for 1997, compared to a basic loss per common share of $.07 in 1996.
Diluted earnings per common share was $.24 for 1997, compared to a diluted
loss per common share of $.07 in 1996.
1996 COMPARED TO 1995
Revenues. Revenues primarily represent house profit from the Company's hotel
properties, net gains (losses) on property transactions and equity in earnings
of affiliates. Revenues increased $248 million, or 51%, to $732 million in
1996. The Company's revenue and operating profit were impacted by:
. improved lodging results for comparable full-service hotel properties;
. the addition of nine full-service hotel properties during 1995 and 23
full-service properties during 1996;
. the 1996 and 1995 sale and leaseback of 53 of the Company's Courtyard
properties and 18 of the Company's Residence Inns;
. the 1996 change in the estimated depreciable lives and salvage values for
certain hotel properties which resulted in additional depreciation
expense of $15 million;
. the 1996 results including 53 weeks versus 52 weeks in 1995;
. the $60 million pre-tax charge in 1995 to write down the carrying value
of one undeveloped land parcel to its estimated sales value;
. a $10 million pre-tax charge in 1995 to write down the carrying value of
certain Courtyard and Residence Inn properties held for sale to their net
realizable values included in "Net gains (losses) on property
transactions"); and
. the 1995 sale of four Fairfield Inns.
Hotel revenues increased $243 million, or 51%, to $717 million in 1996, as
all three of the Company's lodging concepts reported growth in REVPAR. Hotel
sales increased $590 million, or 44%, to $1.9 billion in 1996, reflecting the
REVPAR increases for comparable units and the addition of full-service
properties during 1995 and 1996.
Improved results for the Company's full-service hotels were driven by strong
increases in REVPAR for comparable units of 11% in 1996. Results were further
enhanced by almost a two percentage point increase in
21
<PAGE>
the house profit margin for comparable full-service properties. On a
comparable basis for the Company's full-service properties, average room rates
increased 8%, while average occupancy increased over two percentage points.
Operating Costs and Expenses. Operating costs and expenses principally
consist of depreciation, management fees, real and personal property taxes,
ground, building and equipment rent, insurance, and certain other costs.
Operating costs and expenses increased $129 million to $499 million for 1996,
primarily representing increased hotel operating costs, including
depreciation, partially offset by the $60 million pre-tax charge in 1995 to
write down the carrying value of one undeveloped land parcel to its estimated
sales value. Hotel operating costs increased $180 million to $461 million,
primarily due to the addition of 32 full-service properties during 1995 and
1996, increased management fees and rentals tied to improved property results
and a change in the depreciable lives and salvage values of certain large
hotel properties ($15 million). As a percentage of hotel revenues, hotel
operating costs and expenses increased to 64% of revenues for 1996, from 59%
of revenues for 1995, reflecting the impact of the lease payments on the
Courtyard and Residence Inn properties which have been sold and leased back,
and the change in depreciable lives and salvage values for certain large hotel
properties discussed above, as well as the shifting emphasis to full-service
properties. Full-service hotel rooms accounted for 100% of the Company's total
hotel rooms on January 3, 1997, versus 84% on December 29, 1995.
Operating Profit. As a result of the changes in revenues and operating costs
and expenses discussed above, the Company's operating profit increased $119
million, or 104%, to $233 million in 1996. Hotel operating profit increased
$63 million, or 33%, to $256 million, or 36% of hotel revenues, for 1996
compared to $193 million, or 41% of hotel revenues, for 1995. Across the
board, the Company's hotels recorded substantial improvements in comparable
operating results. In addition, several hotels, including the New York
Marriott Marquis, the New York Marriott East Side, the Philadelphia Marriott,
the San Francisco Marriott and the Miami Airport Marriott posted particularly
significant improvements in operating profit for the year. The Company's
Atlanta properties also posted outstanding results, primarily due to the 1996
Summer Olympics. Additionally, several hotels which recently converted to the
Marriott brand, including the Denver Marriott Tech Center, the Marriott's
Mountain Resort at Vail and the Williamsburg Marriott, recorded strong results
compared to the prior year as they completed renovations and began to realize
the benefit of their conversions.
Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses increased $7 million to $43 million
in 1996. As a percentage of revenues, corporate expenses decreased to 5.9% of
revenues in 1996 from 7.4% of revenues in 1995. This reflects the Company's
efforts to carefully control its corporate administrative expenses in spite of
the substantial growth in revenues.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased 33% to $237 million in 1996,
primarily due to the additional mortgage debt of approximately $696 million
incurred in connection with the 1996 full-service hotel additions and the
issuance of $350 million of notes issued by HMC Acquisition Properties, Inc.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in December 1995, partially offset
by the net impact of the 1995 redemptions of Host Marriott Hospitality, Inc.
notes ("Hospitality Notes").
Loss from Continuing Operations. The loss from continuing operations for
1996 decreased $49 million to $13 million, as a result of the changes
discussed above.
Net Loss. The Company's net loss in 1996 was $13 million, compared to a net
loss of $143 million in 1995, which included a $61 million loss from
discontinued operations and a $20 million extraordinary loss primarily
representing premiums paid on bond redemptions and the write-off of deferred
financing fees and discounts on the debt. The basic and diluted loss per
common share was $.07 for 1996 and $.90 for 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company funds its capital requirements with a combination of operating
cash flow measured as EBITDA, debt and equity financing, and proceeds from
sales of selected properties and other assets. The
22
<PAGE>
Company utilizes these sources of capital to acquire new properties, fund
capital additions and improvements, and make principal payments on debt.
Capital Transactions. In June 1997, HMC Capital Resources Corporation
("Capital Resources"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into
a revolving line of credit agreement ("Line of Credit") with a group of
commercial banks under which it may borrow up to $500 million for certain
permitted uses. On June 19, 2000, any then outstanding borrowings on the Line
of Credit convert to a term loan arrangement with all unpaid advances due June
19, 2004. Borrowings under the Line of Credit bear interest at either the
Eurodollar rate plus 1.7%, or the Base Rate (as defined in the agreement) plus
0.7%, at the option of the Company. An annual fee of 0.35% is charged on the
unused portion of the commitment. The Line of Credit was originally secured by
six hotel properties, with a carrying value of approximately $500 million at
January 2, 1998, which were contributed to Capital Resources. The Line of
Credit is guaranteed by the Company. As a result of this transaction, the
Company terminated its line of credit with Marriott International. During the
fourth quarter of 1997, the Company borrowed approximately $22 million under
the Line of Credit for the acquisition of the Ontario Airport Marriott.
In July 1997, HMH Properties, Inc. ("Properties") and HMC Acquisition
Properties, Inc. ("Acquisitions"), indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the
Company, completed consent solicitations (the "Consent Solicitations") with
holders of their senior notes to amend certain provisions of their senior
notes indentures. The Consent Solicitations facilitated the merger of
Acquisitions with and into Properties (the "Merger"). The amendments to the
indentures also increased the ability of Properties to acquire, through
certain subsidiaries, additional properties subject to non-recourse
indebtedness and controlling interests in corporations, partnerships and other
entities holding attractive properties and increased the threshold for
distributions to affiliates to the excess of Properties' earnings before
interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and other non-
cash items subsequent to the Consent Solicitations over 220% of Properties'
interest expense. Properties paid dividends to the Company of $54 million, $29
million and $36 million in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, as permitted
under the indentures.
Concurrent with the Consent Solicitations and the Merger, Properties issued
an aggregate of $600 million of 8 7/8% senior notes (the "New Properties
Notes") at par with a maturity of July 2007. Properties received net proceeds
of approximately $570 million, net of the costs of the Consent Solicitations
and the offering, which will be used to fund future acquisitions of, or the
purchase of controlling interests in, full-service hotels and other lodging-
related properties, which may include senior living communities.
In December 1996, the Host Marriott Financial Trust (the "Issuer"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary trust of the Company, issued 11 million shares of 6
3/4% convertible quarterly income preferred securities (the "Convertible
Preferred Securities"), with a liquidation preference of $50 per share (for a
total liquidation amount of $550 million). The Convertible Preferred
Securities represent an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the
Issuer and, pursuant to various agreements entered into in connection with the
transaction, are fully, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed by the
Company. Proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Securities
were invested in 6 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "Debentures")
due December 2, 2026 issued by the Company. The Issuer exists solely to issue
the Convertible Preferred Securities and its own common securities (the
"Common Securities") and invest the proceeds therefrom in the Debentures,
which are its sole assets. Each of the Convertible Preferred Securities is
convertible at the option of the holder into shares of Company common stock at
the rate of 2.6876 shares per Convertible Preferred Security (equivalent to a
conversion price of $18.604 per share of Company common stock). The Debentures
are convertible at the option of the holders into shares of Company common
stock at a conversion rate of 2.6876 shares for each $50 in principal amount
of Debentures. The Issuer will only convert Debentures pursuant to a notice of
conversion by a holder of Securities. During 1997 and 1996, no shares were
converted into common stock. Holders of the Convertible Preferred Securities
are entitled to receive preferential cumulative cash distributions at an
annual rate of 6 3/4% accruing from the original issue date, commencing March
1, 1997, and payable quarterly in arrears thereafter. The distribution rate
and the distribution and other payment dates for the Convertible Preferred
23
<PAGE>
Securities will correspond to the interest rate and interest and other payment
dates on the Debentures. The Company may defer interest payments on the
Debentures for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. If interest
payments on the Debentures are deferred, so too are payments on the
Convertible Preferred Securities. Under this circumstance, the Company will
not be permitted to declare or pay any cash distributions with respect to its
capital stock or debt securities that rank pari passu with or junior to the
Debentures. Subject to certain restrictions, the Convertible Preferred
Securities are redeemable at the Issuer's option upon any redemption by the
Company of the Debentures after December 2, 1999. Upon repayment at maturity
or as a result of the acceleration of the Debentures upon the occurrence of a
default, the Debentures shall be subject to mandatory redemption, from which
the proceeds will be applied to redeem Convertible Preferred Securities and
Common Securities, together with accrued and unpaid distributions.
In March 1996, the Company completed the issuance of 31.6 million shares of
common stock for net proceeds of nearly $400 million.
In December 1995, Acquisitions issued $350 million of 9% senior notes (the
"Acquisitions Notes"). The Acquisitions Notes were issued at par and have a
final maturity of December 2007. The net proceeds totaled $340 million and
were utilized to repay in full the outstanding borrowings of $210 million
under Acquisitions' $230 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"),
which was then terminated to acquire three full-service properties and to
finance future acquisitions of full-service hotel properties with the
remaining proceeds.
In May 1995, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Host Marriott Hospitality,
Inc. ("Hospitality"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued an
aggregate of $1 billion of 9.5% senior secured notes in two concurrent
offerings. Properties, the owner of 58 of the Company's 95 full-service hotel
properties at January 2, 1998 and Host Marriott Travel Plazas, Inc. ("HMTP"),
the operator/manager of HM Services' food, beverage and merchandise
concessions business, issued $600 million (the "Properties Notes") and $400
million, respectively, of senior notes. The bonds were issued at par and have
a final maturity of May 2005. The net proceeds of approximately $971 million
were used to defease, and subsequently redeem, all of Hospitality's remaining
bonds (the "Hospitality Notes") and to repay borrowings under the line of
credit with Marriott International. The HMTP senior notes were included in the
HM Services' Special Dividend.
The Properties Notes, the Acquisitions Notes and the New Properties Notes
are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of Properties'
subsidiaries and rank pari passu in right of payment with all other existing
future senior indebtedness of Properties. The net assets of Properties at
January 2, 1998 were approximately $518 million, substantially all of which
were restricted. The indentures governing the Properties Notes, the
Acquisitions Notes and the New Properties Notes contain covenants that, among
other things, limit the ability to incur additional indebtedness and issue
preferred stock, pay dividends or make other distributions, repurchase capital
stock or subordinated indebtedness, create certain liens, enter into certain
transactions with affiliates, sell certain asses, issue or sell stock of
subsidiaries, and enter into certain mergers and consolidations.
During 1995, the Company replaced its line of credit with a line of credit
from Marriott International pursuant to which the Company had the right to
borrow up to $225 million. The line of credit with Marriott International was
terminated as a result of the Capital Resources transaction discussed above.
There are no plans to pay regular cash dividends on the Company's common
stock in the near future, and the Company is prohibited from paying dividends
on its common stock if interest on the Debentures is deferred.
Asset Dispositions. The Company historically has sold, and may from time to
time in the future consider opportunities to sell, certain of its real estate
properties at attractive prices when the proceeds could be redeployed into
investments with more favorable returns. During 1997, the Company sold the
255-room Sheraton Elk Grove Suites for proceeds of approximately $16 million.
The Company also sold 90% of its 174-acre parcel of undeveloped land in
Germantown, Maryland, for approximately $11 million, which approximated its
carrying value. During the first and second quarters of 1996, 16 of the
Company's Courtyard properties and 18 of the Company's Residence Inn
properties were sold (subject to a leaseback) to the REIT for approximately
$314
24
<PAGE>
million and the Company will receive approximately $35 million upon expiration
of the leases. A gain on the transactions of approximately $46 million was
deferred and is being amortized over the initial term of the leases. During
the first and third quarters of 1995, 37 of the Company's Courtyard properties
were sold to and leased back from the REIT for approximately $330 million. The
Company received net proceeds from the two 1995 transactions of approximately
$297 million and will receive approximately $33 million upon expiration of the
leases. A deferred gain of $14 million on the sale/leaseback transactions is
being amortized over the initial term of the leases. In 1995, the Company also
sold its four remaining Fairfield Inns for net cash proceeds of approximately
$6 million, which approximated their carrying value.
In cases where the Company has made a decision to dispose of particular
properties, the Company assesses impairment of each individual property to be
sold on the basis of expected sales price less estimated costs of disposal.
Otherwise, the Company assesses impairment of its real estate properties based
on whether it is probable that undiscounted future cash flows from such
properties will be less than their net book value. If a property is impaired,
its basis is adjusted to its fair market value. In the second quarter of 1995,
the Company made a determination that its owned Courtyard and Residence Inn
properties were held for sale and recorded a $10 million charge to write down
the carrying value of five individual Courtyard and Residence Inn properties
to their estimated net sales values.
Capital Acquisitions, Additions and Improvements. The Company seeks to grow
primarily through opportunistic acquisitions of full-service hotels and senior
living communities. The Company believes that the upscale and luxury full-
service hotel segments of the market offer opportunities to acquire assets at
attractive multiples of cash flow and at discounts to replacement value,
including under performing hotels which can be improved by conversion to the
Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brands. During 1997, the Company acquired eight full-
service hotels (3,600 rooms) and controlling interests in nine additional
full-service hotels (5,024 rooms) for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $766 million (including the assumption of approximately $418
million of debt). The Company also completed the acquisition of the 504-room
New York Marriott Financial Center, after acquiring the mortgage on the hotel
for $101 million in late 1996. During 1996, the Company acquired six full-
service hotels (1,964 rooms) for an aggregate purchase price of $189 million
and controlling interests in 17 additional full-service properties (8,917
rooms) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.1 billion
(including the assumption of $696 million of debt). During 1995, the Company
acquired nine hotels totaling approximately 3,900 rooms in separate
transactions for approximately $390 million ($141 million of which was
financed through first mortgage financing on four of the hotels).
In the first quarter of 1998, the Company acquired a controlling interest in
the partnership that owns the 1,671-room Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel for
$239 million, including the assumption of $164 million of mortgage debt. The
Company also acquired a controlling interest in the partnership that owns the
359-room Albany Marriott, the 350-room San Diego Marriott Mission Valley and
the 320-room Minneapolis Marriott Southwest for approximately $50 million. The
Company is continually engaged in discussions with respect to other potential
acquisition properties and, subsequent to January 2, 1998, entered into an
agreement to acquire the 397-room The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner, Virginia.
Under the terms of its hotel management agreements, the Company is generally
required to spend approximately 5% of gross hotel sales to cover the capital
needs of the properties, including major guest room and common area
renovations which occur every five to six years. The Company anticipates
spending approximately $160 million annually on the renovation and
refurbishment of its existing lodging properties.
The Company completed the construction of the 1,200-room Philadelphia
Marriott, which opened on January 27, 1995. The construction costs of this
hotel were funded 60% through a loan from Marriott International which was
repaid in the fourth quarter of 1996. In March 1997, the Company obtained a
$90 million mortgage which bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.49% and matures
in 2009. Construction of a second hotel in Philadelphia, the 419-room
Philadelphia Airport Marriott (the "Airport Hotel"), was completed and opened
on November 1, 1995. The Airport Hotel was financed principally with $40
million of proceeds from an industrial development bond financing. The Company
also completed construction of a 300-room Residence Inn in Arlington,
Virginia, which opened in March 1996. Capital expenditures for these three
hotels totaled $11 million in 1996 and $64 million in 1995.
25
<PAGE>
In November 1997, the Company announced that it had committed to develop and
construct the 717-room Tampa Convention Center Marriott for a cost estimated
at approximately $88 million, net of an approximate $16 million subsidy
provided by the City of Tampa.
While the Company's portfolio of lodging properties consists primarily of
upscale and luxury full-service hotels, management continually considers the
merits of diversifying into other compatible lodging related real estate
assets that offer strong current economic benefits and growth prospects. In
1997, the Company acquired the outstanding common stock of the Forum Group
from Marriott Senior Living Services, Inc., ("MSLS") a subsidiary of Marriott
International. The Company purchased the Forum Group portfolio of 29 senior
living communities for approximately $460 million, including approximately
$270 million in debt. The properties will continue to be operated by MSLS. In
addition, the Company plans to add approximately 1,060 units to these
communities for approximately $107 million through an expansion plan which
will be completed in 1999. In 1997, approximately $56 million (549 units) of
the expansion plan had been completed (including $33 million of debt financing
provided by Marriott International). The Company also acquired 49% of the
remaining 50% interest in the venture which owned the 418-unit Leisure Park
senior living community from Marriott International for approximately $23
million, including approximately $15 million of debt.
During the first quarter of 1998, the Company also acquired the Gables at
Winchester in suburban Boston, a 124-unit senior living community, for $21
million and entered into conditional purchase agreements to acquire two
Marriott Brighton Gardens assisted living communities from the Summit
Companies of Denver, Colorado. After the anticipated completion of
construction in the first quarter of 1999, the Company may acquire these two
160-unit properties located in Denver and Colorado Springs, Colorado, for $35
million, if they achieve certain operating performance criteria. All three of
these communities will be operated by MSLS under long-term operating
agreements.
The Company may also expand certain existing hotel properties where strong
performance and market demand exists. Expansions to existing properties
creates a lower risk to the Company as the success of the market is generally
known and development time is significantly shorter than new construction. The
Company recently committed to add approximately 500 rooms and an additional
15,000 square feet of meeting space to the 1,503-room Marriott's Orlando World
Center.
Under the terms of its senior living communities' management agreements, the
Company is generally required to spend an amount of gross revenues to cover
certain routine repairs and maintenance and replacements and renewals to the
communities' property and improvements. The amount the Company is required to
spend will be 2.65% through fiscal year 2002, 2.85% for fiscal years 2003
through 2007, and 3.5% thereafter. The Company anticipates spending
approximately $6 million in 1998.
Debt Payments. At January 2, 1998, the Company and its subsidiaries had
approximately $1,585 million of senior notes ($1,550 million of which have
been issued and guaranteed by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company),
approximately $2.0 billion of non-recourse mortgage debt secured by real
estate assets and approximately $219 million of unsecured and other debt. The
parent company was obligated on approximately $232 million of recourse debt as
of January 2, 1998.
Maturities over the next five years were limited to $942 million as of
January 2, 1998, a significant portion of which represents the maturity of the
mortgage on the New York Marriott Marquis of approximately $270 million in
December 1998. Management anticipates that the mortgage will be refinanced by
the end of 1998 on comparable terms. The Company's interest coverage, defined
as EBITDA divided by cash interest expense, improved to nearly 2.5 times in
1997 from 2.0 times in 1996.
At January 2, 1998, the Company was party to an interest rate exchange
agreement with a financial institution (the contracting party) with an
aggregate notional amount of $100 million. Under this agreement, the Company
collects interest based on specified floating interest rates of one month
LIBOR (rate of 6% at January 2, 1998) and pays interest at fixed rates (rate
of 7.99% at January 2, 1998). This agreement expires in 1998, in conjunction
with the maturity of the mortgage on the New York Marriott Marquis. Also in
1997, the Company was party to two additional interest rate swap agreements
with an aggregate notional amount of $400 million.
26
<PAGE>
These agreements expired in May 1997. The Company realized a net reduction of
interest expense of $1 million in 1997, $6 million in 1996 and $5 million in
1995 related to interest rate exchange agreements. The Company monitors the
creditworthiness of its contracting parties by evaluating credit exposure and
referring to the ratings of widely accepted credit rating services. The
Standard and Poors' long-term debt ratings for the contracting party is A- for
its sole outstanding interest rate exchange agreement. The Company is exposed
to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the contracting party to the
interest rate swap agreement; however, the Company does not anticipate non-
performance by the contracting party.
Cash Flows. The Company's cash flow from continuing operations in 1997, 1996
and 1995 totaled $464 million, $205 million and $110 million, respectively.
Cash flow from operations increased principally due to improved lodging
results and the significant acquisitions of hotels and senior living
communities.
The Company's cash used in investing activities from continuing operations
in 1997, 1996 and 1995 totaled $1,046 million, $504 million and $156 million,
respectively. Cash used in investing activities primarily consists of net
proceeds from the sales of certain assets, offset by the acquisition of hotel
and other real estate assets and other capital expenditures previously
discussed, as well as the purchases of short-term marketable securities. Cash
used in investing activities was significantly impacted by the purchase of
$354 million of short-term marketable securities in 1997.
The Company's cash from financing activities from continuing operations was
$389 million for 1997, $806 million for 1996 and $204 million for 1995. The
Company's cash from financing activities primarily consists of the proceeds
from debt and equity offerings, the issuance of the Convertible Preferred
Securities, mortgage financing on certain acquired hotels and borrowings under
the Line of Credit, offset by redemptions and payments on senior notes,
prepayments on certain hotel mortgages, and other scheduled principal
payments.
EBITDA and Comparative FFO. The Company's consolidated earnings before
interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items
("EBITDA") increased $266 million, or 60%, to $708 million in 1997 from $442
million in 1996.
Hotel EBITDA increased $252 million, or 57%, to $691 million in 1997 from
$439 million in 1996 reflecting comparable full-service hotel EBITDA growth,
as well as incremental EBITDA from 1996 and 1997 acquisitions. Full-service
hotel EBITDA from comparable hotel properties increased 17.3% on a REVPAR
increase of 12.6%. The Company's senior living communities contributed $27
million of EBITDA in 1997.
The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA to the Company's income (loss)
before extraordinary items (in millions):

The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.3 to 1.0, 1.0 to 1.0 and .7 to
1.0 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The deficiency of earnings to fixed
charges of $70 million for 1995 is largely the result of depreciation and
amortization of $122 million. In addition, the deficiency for 1995 was
impacted by the $60 million pre-tax charge to write down the carrying value of
one undeveloped land parcel to its estimated sales value.
The Company also believes that Comparative Funds From Operations
("Comparative FFO," which represents Funds From Operations, as defined by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, plus
27
<PAGE>
deferred tax expense) is a meaningful disclosure that will help the investment
community to better understand the financial performance of the Company,
including enabling its shareholders and analysts to more easily compare the
Company's performance to Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs"). Comparative
FFO increased $131 million, or 80%, to $295 million in 1997. The following is
a reconciliation of the Company's income (loss) before extraordinary items to
Comparative FFO (in millions):

</TABLE>
The Company considers EBITDA and Comparative FFO to be indicative measures
of the Company's operating performance due to the significance of the
Company's long-lived assets and because such data is considered useful by the
investment community to better understand the Company's results, and can be
used to measure the Company's ability to service debt, fund capital
expenditures and expand its business, however, such information should not be
considered as an alternative to net income, operating profit, cash from
operations, or any other operating or liquidity performance measure prescribed
by generally accepted accounting principles. Cash expenditures for various
long-term assets, interest expense (for EBITDA purposes only) and income taxes
have been, and will be, incurred which are not reflected in the EBITDA and
Comparative FFO presentation.
Partnership Activities. The Company has general and limited partner
interests in numerous limited partnerships which own 241 hotels (including 21
full-service hotels) as of March 3, 1998, managed by Marriott International.
Debt of the hotel limited partnerships is typically secured by first mortgages
on the properties and is generally nonrecourse to the partnership and the
partners. However, the Company has committed to advance amounts to certain
affiliated limited partnerships, if necessary, to cover certain future debt
service requirements. Such commitments were limited, in the aggregate, to an
additional $60 million at January 2, 1998. Subsequent to year-end, this amount
was reduced to $20 million in connection with the refinancing and acquisition
of a controlling interest in the partnership which owns the Atlanta Marriott
Marquis. Amounts repaid to the Company under these guarantees totaled $2
million and $13 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Fundings by the
Company under these guarantees amounted to $10 million in 1997 and $8 million
for 1995.
In December 1997, the Company, on behalf of six of its subsidiaries, filed a
preliminary Prospectus/Consent Solicitation with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which describes the potential consolidation of six of the
Company's affiliated partnerships, which own 219 limited-service hotels, into
a single operating partnership and the formation of a new general partner
which would intend to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") and
be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The potential REIT would have
separate management from the Company and would focus solely on the ownership
and acquisition of limited-service and extended-stay hotels. To satisfy
certain tax requirements related to the nature of the income received by the
REIT, the assets would be leased to subsidiaries of the Company. The REIT, as
contemplated, and if completed, is not expected to have a significant economic
impact on the Company.
Leases. The Company leases certain property and equipment under
noncancelable operating leases, including the long-term ground leases for
certain hotels, generally with multiple renewal options. The leases related to
the 53 Courtyard properties and 18 Residence Inn properties sold during 1995
and 1996 are non-recourse to the Company and contain provisions for the
payment of contingent rentals based on a percentage of sales in excess of
stipulated amounts. The Company remains contingently liable on certain leases
related to divested non-lodging properties. Management considers the
likelihood of any substantial funding related to these divested properties'
leases to be remote.
28
<PAGE>
Inflation. The Company's hotel lodging properties are impacted by inflation
through its effect on increasing costs and on the managers' ability to
increase room rates. Unlike other real estate, hotels have the ability to
change room rates on a daily basis, so the impact of higher inflation
generally can be passed on to customers.
A substantial portion of the Company's debt bears interest at fixed rates.
This debt structure largely mitigates the impact of changes in the rate of
inflation on future interest costs. However, the Company currently is exposed
to variable interest rates through an interest rate exchange agreement with a
financial institution with an aggregate notional amount of $100 million. Under
this agreement, the Company collects interest based on the specified floating
rates of one month LIBOR (rate of 6% at January 2, 1998) and pays interest at
fixed rates (rate of 7.99% at January 2, 1998). This agreement expires in 1998
in conjunction with the maturity of the mortgage on the New York Marriott
Marquis. The Company's Line of Credit and the mortgage on the San Diego
Marriott Hotel and Marina ($199 million at January 2, 1998) bears interest
based on variable rates. Accordingly, the amount of the Company's interest
expense under the interest rate swap agreements and the floating rate debt for
a particular year will be affected by changes in short-term interest rates.
Year 2000 Issues. Over the last few years, the Company has invested in
implementing new accounting systems which are Year 2000 compliant.
Accordingly, the Company believes that future costs associated with Year 2000
issues will be minimal and not material to the Company's consolidated
financial statements.
However, the Company does rely upon accounting software used by the managers
and operators of its properties to obtain financial information. Management
believes that the managers and operators have begun to implement changes to
the property specific software to ensure that software will function properly
in the Year 2000 and does not expect to incur significant costs related to
these modifications.
Accounting Standards. The Company adopted Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan"
and SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" during 1995. Adoption of these statements
did not have a material effect on the Company's continuing operations. See the
discussion below for a discussion of the impact of the adoption of SFAS No.
121 on discontinued operations.
SFAS No. 121 requires that an impairment loss be recognized when the
carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted estimated
future cash flows associated with the asset. Under SFAS No. 121, the Company
reviewed the impairment of its assets employed in its operating group business
lines (airport, toll plaza and sports and entertainment) on an individual
operating unit basis. For each individual operating unit determined to be
impaired, an impairment loss equal to the difference between the carrying
value and the fair market value of the unit's assets was recognized. Fair
market value was estimated to be the present value of expected future cash
flows of the individual operating unit, as determined by management, after
considering such factors as future air travel and toll-pay vehicle data and
inflation. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 121, the Company recognized
a non-cash, pre-tax charge against earnings during the fourth quarter 1995 of
$47 million, which was reflected in discontinued operations.
In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock Based Compensation." The adoption of SFAS No. 123 did not have a
material effect on the Company's financial statements.
During 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share;" SFAS
No. 129, "Disclosure of Information About Capital Structure" and SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The
adoption of these statements did not have a material effect on the Company's
consolidated financial statements and the appropriate disclosures required by
these statements have been incorporated herein. The Company will adopt SFAS
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" in 1998 and does not expect it to
have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
29
<PAGE>
On November 20, 1997, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on EITF 97-2,
"Application of FASB Statement No. 94 and APB Opinion No. 16 to Physician
Practice Management Entities and Certain Other Entities with Contractual
Management Arrangements." EITF 97-2 addresses the circumstances in which a
management entity may include the revenues and expenses of a managed entity in
its financial statements.
The Company is assessing the impact of EITF 97-2 on its policy of excluding
the property-level revenues and operating expenses of its hotels and senior
living communities from its statements of operations (see Note 18). If the
Company concludes that EITF 97-2 should be applied to its hotels and senior
living communities, it would include operating results of those managed
operations in its financial statements. Application of EITF 97-2 to financial
statements as of and for the 52 weeks ended January 2, 1998, would have
increased both revenues and operating expenses by approximately $1.7 billion
and would have had no impact on operating profit, net income or earnings per
share.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Host Marriott Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Host
Marriott Corporation and subsidiaries as of January 2, 1998 and January 3,
1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended
January 2, 1998. These financial statements and the schedules referred to
below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Host
Marriott Corporation and subsidiaries as of January 2, 1998 and January 3,
1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three fiscal years in the period ended January 2, 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, in
1995 the Company changed its method of accounting for the impairment of long-
lived assets.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the index at
Item 14(a)(2) are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic financial
statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion,
fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set
forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
As of January 2, 1998, Host Marriott Corporation (the "Company") owned, or
had controlling interests in, 95 upscale and luxury full-service hotel lodging
properties generally located throughout the United States and operated under
the Marriott and Ritz-Carlton brand names. Most of these properties are
managed by Marriott International, Inc. ("Marriott International"). At that
date, the Company also held minority interests in various partnerships that
own 242 additional properties, including 22 full-service hotel properties,
managed by Marriott International. The Company also owned a portfolio
consisting of 30 premier senior living communities as of January 2, 1998, all
of which are managed by Marriott Senior Living Services, Inc. ("MSLS"), a
subsidiary of Marriott International.
On December 29, 1995, the Company distributed to its shareholders through a
special tax-free dividend (the "Special Dividend") its food, beverage, and
merchandise concessions business at airports, on tollroads, and at arenas and
other attractions (the "Operating Group"). See Note 2 for a discussion of the
Special Dividend. The 1995 consolidated financial statements were restated to
reflect the Operating Group as discontinued operations.
The structure of the Company was substantially altered on October 8, 1993
(the "Marriott International Distribution Date") when the Company distributed
the stock of a wholly-owned subsidiary, Marriott International, Inc., in a
special dividend (the "Marriott International Distribution"). See Note 14 for
a description of the Marriott International Distribution and related
transactions.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates. Investments in affiliates over
which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does
not control, are accounted for using the equity method. All material
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Fiscal Year
The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest to December 31. Fiscal
years 1997 and 1995 included 52 weeks compared to 53 weeks for fiscal year
1996.
Revenues and Expenses
Revenues primarily represent house profit from the Company's hotel
properties and senior living communities because the Company has delegated
substantially all of the operating decisions related to the generation of
house profit from its hotel properties and senior living communities to the
manager. Revenues also include net gains (losses) on property transactions and
equity in the earnings of affiliates. House profit reflects the net revenues
flowing to the Company as property owner and represents hotel properties' and
senior living communities' operating results, less property-level expenses,
excluding depreciation, management fees, real and personal property taxes,
ground and equipment rent, insurance and certain other costs, which are
classified as operating costs and expenses in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. See Note 18.
On November 20, 1997, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on EITF 97-2,
"Application of FASB Statement No. 94 and APB Opinion No. 16 to Physician
Practice Management Entities and Certain Other Entities with Contractual
Management Arrangements." EITF 97-2 addresses the circumstances in which a
management entity may include the revenues and expenses of a managed entity in
its financial statements.
37
<PAGE>
HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
The Company is assessing the impact of EITF 97-2 on its policy of excluding
the property-level revenues and operating expenses of its hotels and senior
living communities from its statements of operations (see Note 18). If the
Company concludes that EITF 97-2 should be applied to its hotels and senior
living communities, it would include operating results of those managed
operations in its statements of operations. Application of EITF 97-2 to
financial statements as of and for the 52 weeks ended January 2, 1998 would
have increased both revenues and operating expenses by approximately $1.7
billion and would have had no impact on operating profit, net income or
earnings per share.
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted
earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus other dilutive
securities. Diluted earnings per common share has not been adjusted for the
impact of the Convertible Preferred Securities for 1997 and 1996 and for the
comprehensive stock plan and warrants for 1996 and 1995 as they are anti-
dilutive.
A reconciliation of the number of shares utilized for the calculation of
dilutive earnings per common share follows:

</TABLE>
International Operations
The consolidated statements of operations include the following amounts
related to non-U.S. subsidiaries and affiliates: revenues of $39 million and
$18 million and loss before income taxes of $9 million and $2 million in 1997
and 1996, respectively. International revenues and income before income taxes
in 1995 were not material.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. For newly developed properties,
cost includes interest, rent and real estate taxes incurred during development
and construction. Replacements and improvements are capitalized.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, generally 40 years for buildings and three to ten
years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over
the shorter of the lease term or the useful lives of the related assets.
Gains on sales of properties are recognized at the time of sale or deferred
to the extent required by generally accepted accounting principles. Deferred
gains are recognized as income in subsequent periods as conditions requiring
deferral are satisfied or expire without further cost to the Company.
In cases where management is holding for sale particular hotel properties or
senior living communities, the Company assesses impairment based on whether
the estimated sales price less costs of disposal of each individual property
to be sold is less than the net book value. A property is considered to be
held for sale when
38
<PAGE>
HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
the Company has made the decision to dispose of the property. Otherwise, the
Company assesses impairment of its real estate properties based on whether it
is probable that undiscounted future cash flows from each individual property
will be less than its net book value. If a property is impaired, its basis is
adjusted to its fair market value.
Deferred Charges
Deferred financing costs related to long-term debt are deferred and
amortized over the remaining life of the debt.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Marketable Securities
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90
days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents includes approximately $115 million and $67 million at January 2,
1998 and January 3, 1997, respectively, of cash related to certain
consolidated partnerships, the use of which is restricted generally for
partnership purposes to the extent it is not distributed to the partners.
Short-term marketable securities include investments with a maturity of 91
days to one year at the date of purchase. The Company's short-term marketable
securities represent investments in U.S. government agency notes and high
quality commercial paper. The short-term marketable securities are categorized
as available for sale and, as a result, are stated at fair market value.
Unrealized holding gains and losses are included as a separate component of
shareholders' equity until realized.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents
and short-term marketable securities. The Company maintains cash and cash
equivalents and short-term marketable securities with various high credit-
quality financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of
the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and limits the
amount of credit exposure with any institution.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Self-Insurance Programs
Prior to the Marriott International Distribution Date, the Company was self-
insured for certain levels of general liability, workers' compensation and
employee medical coverage. Estimated costs of these self-insurance programs
were accrued at present values of projected settlements for known and
anticipated claims. The Company discontinued its self-insurance programs for
claims arising subsequent to the Marriott International Distribution Date.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
The Company has entered into a limited number of interest rate swap
agreements to diversify certain of its debt to a variable rate or fixed rate
basis. The interest rate differential to be paid or received on interest rate
swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and is recognized as an
adjustment to interest expense.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
New Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
The Company adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed Of" during 1995. Adoption of these statements did not have a
material effect on the Company's continuing operations. See Note 2 for a
discussion of the adoption of SFAS No. 121 on discontinued operations.
During 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." The adoption of SFAS No. 123 did not have a material effect on
the Company's consolidated financial statements. See Note 10.
During 1997, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share;" SFAS
No. 129, "Disclosure of Information About Capital Structure" and SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The
adoption of these statements did not have a material effect on the Company's
consolidated financial statements and the appropriate disclosures required by
these statements have been incorporated herein. The Company will adopt SFAS
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," in 1998 and does not expect it to
have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
2. HM SERVICES SPECIAL DIVIDEND
On December 29, 1995, the Company distributed to its shareholders through
the Special Dividend all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Host
Marriott Services Corporation ("HM Services"), formerly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company, which, as of the date of the Special Dividend,
owned and operated food, beverage and merchandise concessions at airports, on
tollroads and at stadiums and arenas and other tourist attractions. The
Special Dividend provided Company shareholders with one share of common stock
of HM Services for every five shares of Company common stock held by such
shareholders on the record date of December 22, 1995. The Company recorded
approximately $9 million of expenses related to the consummation of the
Special Dividend in 1995. Revenues for the Company's discontinued operations
totaled $1,158 million in 1995. The provision for loss on disposal includes
the operating loss from discontinued operations from August 9, 1995
(measurement date) through December 29, 1995 of $44 million, net of taxes, and
estimated expenses related to the Special Dividend of $9 million.
Effective September 9, 1995, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121, which
requires that an impairment loss be recognized when the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows
associated with the asset. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 121, the
Company recognized a non-cash, pre-tax charge during the fourth quarter of
1995 of $47 million. Such charge has been reflected in discontinued operations
for fiscal year 1995.
For purposes of governing certain of the ongoing relationships between the
Company and HM Services after the Special Dividend and to provide for an
orderly transition, the Company and HM Services entered into various
agreements including a Distribution Agreement, an Employee Benefits Allocation
Agreement, a Tax Sharing Agreement and a Transitional Services Agreement.
Effective as of December 29, 1995, these agreements provide, among other
things, for the division between the Company and HM Services of certain assets
and liabilities, including but not limited to liabilities related to employee
stock and other benefit plans and the establishment of certain obligations for
HM Services to issue shares upon exercise of warrants (see Note 7) and to
issue shares or pay cash to the Company upon exercise of stock options held by
certain former employees of the Company (see Note 10).

Interest cost capitalized in connection with the Company's development and
construction activities totaled $1 million in 1997, $3 million in 1996 and $5
million in 1995.
In 1997, the Company, through an agreement with the ground lessor of one of
its properties terminated its ground lease and recorded a $15 million loss on
the write-off of its investment, including certain transaction costs, which
has been included in net gains (losses) on property transactions in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
In 1996, the Company recorded additional depreciation expense of $15 million
as a result of a change in the estimated depreciable lives and salvage values
for certain hotel properties. Also, in 1996, the Company recorded a $4 million
charge to write down an undeveloped land parcel to its net realizable value
based on its expected sales value.
In 1995, the Company made a determination that its owned Courtyard and
Residence Inn properties were held for sale and recorded a $10 million charge
to write down the carrying value of five of these individual properties to
their estimated net realizable values. In the fourth quarter of 1995,
management instituted a program to liquidate certain non-income producing
assets and to reinvest the proceeds in the acquisition of full-service hotels.
As part of this program, management determined that a 174-acre parcel of
undeveloped land in Germantown, Maryland that was to be developed into an
office project over an extended period of time would no longer be developed
and instead decided to attempt to sell the property. Accordingly, the Company
recorded a pre-tax charge of $60 million in the fourth quarter of 1995 to
reduce the asset to its estimated sales value. In 1997, the Company sold a
portion of the land parcel at its approximate net book value of $11 million.

Hotel properties owned by affiliates generally were acquired from the
Company in connection with limited partnership offerings. The Company or one
of its subsidiaries typically serve as a general partner of each partnership
and the hotels are operated by Marriott International under long-term
agreements.
In 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding interests in the
Chesapeake Hotel Limited Partnership ("CHLP") that owns six hotels and
acquired controlling interests in four affiliated partnerships for
approximately $550 million, including the assumption of approximately $410
million of debt. These affiliated partnerships included the partnerships that
own the 353-room Hanover Marriott; the 884-room Marriott's Desert Springs
Resort and Spa; the Marriott Hotel Properties Limited Partnership ("MHPLP")
that owns the 1,503-room Marriott Orlando World Center and a 50.5% interest in
the 624-room Marriott Harbor Beach Resort; and the partnership that owns the
418-unit Leisure Park retirement community. Subsequent to year-end, the
Company obtained a controlling interest in the partnership that owns the
1,671-room Atlanta Marriott Marquis for approximately $239 million, including
the assumption of $164 million of mortgage debt.
In 1996, the Company purchased controlling interests in four affiliated
partnerships for $640 million, including $429 million of existing debt. These
affiliated partnerships included the partnership that owns the 1,355-room San
Diego Marriott Hotel and Marina; the Marriott Hotel Properties II Limited
Partnership that owns the 1,290-room New Orleans Marriott, the 999-room San
Antonio Marriott Rivercenter, the 368-room San Ramon Marriott, and a 50%
limited partner interest in the 754-room Santa Clara Marriott; the Marriott
Suites Limited Partnership that owns four hotels; and the partnership that
owns the 510-room Salt Lake City Marriott.
Receivables from affiliates are reported net of reserves of $144 million at
January 2, 1998 and $227 million at January 3, 1997. Receivables from
affiliates at January 2, 1998 include a $10 million debt service guarantee for
the partnership that owns the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, which was repaid in
early 1998. Receivables from affiliates at January 3, 1997 included a $140
million mortgage note at 9% that amortizes through 2003, which was eliminated
in the consolidation of CHLP in 1997. The Company has committed to advance
additional amounts to affiliates, if necessary, to cover certain debt service
requirements. Such commitments are limited, in the aggregate, to an additional
$60 million at January 2, 1998. Subsequent to January 2, 1998, this amount was
reduced to $20 million in connection with the refinancing and acquisition of a
controlling interest in the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Net amounts repaid to
the Company under these commitments totaled $2 million and $13 million in 1997
and 1996, respectively. Net amounts funded by the Company totaled $10 million
in 1997 and $8 million in 1995. There were no fundings in 1996.

In December 1997, the Company, on behalf of six of its subsidiaries, filed a
preliminary Prospectus/Consent Solicitation with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which describes the potential consolidation of six limited
partnerships, including 219 limited-service hotel properties, into a single
operating partnership and the formation of a new general partner which would
intend to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). Completion of
this transaction is subject to several major contingencies, including a vote by
the partners in each partnership, and no assurance can be given that the
transaction will be consummated.

In May 1995, HMH Properties, Inc. ("Properties"), a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Host Marriott Hospitality, Inc., issued an aggregate of $600 million of 9
1/2% senior secured notes (the "Properties Notes"). The bonds were issued in
conjunction with a concurrent $400 million offering by a subsidiary of the
Company's discontinued HM Services' business at par, and have a final maturity
of May 2005. The net proceeds were used to defease, and subsequently redeem,
all of the senior notes issued by Host Marriott Hospitality, Inc. and to repay
borrowings under the line of credit with Marriott International. In connection
with the redemptions and defeasance, the Company recognized an extraordinary
loss in 1995 of $17 million, net of taxes, related to continuing operations.
In December 1995, HMC Acquisition Properties, Inc. ("Acquisitions"), an
indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $350 million of 9%
senior notes (the "Acquisitions Notes"). The Acquisitions Notes were issued at
par and have a final maturity of December 2007. A portion of the net proceeds
were utilized to repay in full the outstanding borrowings under the $230
million revolving line of credit (the "Acquisition Revolver"), which was then
terminated. In connection with the termination of the Acquisition Revolver,
the Company recognized an extraordinary loss in 1995 of $3 million, net of
taxes.
On July 10, 1997, Properties and Acquisitions completed consent
solicitations (the "Consent Solicitations") with holders of their senior notes
to amend certain provisions of their senior notes' indentures. The Consent
Solicitations facilitated the merger of Acquisitions with and into Properties
(the "Merger"). The amendments to the indentures also increased the ability of
Properties to acquire, through certain subsidiaries, additional properties
subject to non-recourse indebtedness and controlling interests in
corporations, partnerships and other entities holding attractive properties
and increased the threshold required to permit Properties to make
distributions to affiliates.
Concurrent with the Consent Solicitations and the Merger, Properties issued
an aggregate of $600 million of 8 7/8% senior notes (the "New Properties
Notes") at par with a maturity of July 2007. Properties received
44

net proceeds of approximately $570 million, net of the costs of the Consent
Solicitations and the Offering, which will be used to fund future acquisitions
of, or the purchase of interests in, full-service hotels and other lodging-
related properties, which may include senior living communities, as well as
for general corporate purposes.
The Properties Notes, the Acquisitions Notes and the New Properties Notes
are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of Properties'
subsidiaries and rank pari passu in right of payment with all other existing
future senior indebtedness of Properties. Properties was the owner of 58 of
the Company's 95 lodging properties at January 2, 1998.
The net assets of Properties at January 2, 1998 were approximately $518
million, substantially all of which were restricted. The indentures governing
the Properties Notes, the Acquisitions Notes and the New Properties Notes
contain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability to incur
additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay dividends or make other
distributions, repurchase capital stock or subordinated indebtedness, create
certain liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, sell certain
assets, issue or sell stock of subsidiaries, and enter into certain mergers
and consolidations.
During 1997, the Company, through a newly-created, wholly-owned subsidiary,
HMC Capital Resources Corporation ("Capital Resources"), entered into a
revolving line of credit agreement (the "Line of Credit") with a group of
commercial banks under which it may borrow up to $500 million for the
acquisition of lodging real estate and for the Company's working capital
purposes. On June 19, 2000, any outstanding borrowings on the Line of Credit
convert to a term loan arrangement with all unpaid advances due June 19, 2004.
Borrowings under the Line of Credit bear interest at either the Eurodollar
rate plus 1.7% or the Base Rate (as defined in the agreement) plus 0.7%, at
the option of the Company. An annual fee of 0.35% is charged on the unused
portion of the commitment. The Line of Credit was originally secured by six
hotel properties contributed to Capital Resources, with a carrying value of
approximately $500 million as of January 2, 1998, and is guaranteed by the
Company. As a result of this transaction, the Company terminated its line of
credit with Marriott International. As of January 2, 1998, outstanding
borrowings on the Line of Credit were approximately $22 million as a result of
a borrowing to fund the acquisition of the Ontario Airport Marriott.
The Company also purchased 100% of the outstanding bonds secured by a first
mortgage on the San Francisco Marriott in 1997. The Company purchased the
bonds for $219 million, an $11 million discount to the face value of $230
million. In connection with the redemption and defeasance of the bonds, the
Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $5 million, which represents the
$11 million discount less the write-off of unamortized deferred financing
fees, net of taxes.
In 1997, the Company incurred approximately $418 million of mortgage debt in
conjunction with the acquisition of 11 hotels. In connection with the
acquisition of the outstanding common stock of Forum Group, Inc. (the "Forum
Group") in June 1997 (see Note 12), the Company also assumed debt of
approximately $270 million. The $270 million of debt is comprised of secured
debt of approximately $198 million and unsecured debt of approximately $72
million ($59 million of which was provided by Marriott International). In
1997, the Company completed $56 million of the $107 million expansion plan for
the Forum Group properties. As a result, an additional $33 million of debt
financing has been provided by Marriott International, and Marriott
International may provide additional financing as the expansion plan is
completed. The Company also assumed approximately $15 million of debt in
conjunction with the acquisition of the Leisure Park retirement community.
In conjunction with the construction of the Philadelphia Marriott, which was
completed and opened in January 1995, the Company obtained first mortgage
financing from Marriott International for 60% of the construction and
development costs of the hotel. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company
repaid the $109 million mortgage, prior to the rate increasing to 10% per
annum with an additional 2% deferred, with the
45

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
proceeds from the convertible preferred securities offering discussed in Note
6. In the first quarter of 1997, the Company obtained $90 million in first
mortgage financing from two insurance companies secured by the Philadelphia
Marriott. The mortgage bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.49% and matures in
April 2009.
In December 1997, the Company successfully completed the refinancing of the
MHPLP mortgage debt for approximately $152 million. The new mortgage bears
interest at 7.48% and matures in January 2008. In connection with the
refinancing, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $2 million, which
represents payment of a prepayment penalty and the write-off of unamortized
deferred financing fees, net of taxes.
At January 2, 1998, the Company was party to an interest rate exchange
agreement with a financial institution (the contracting party) with an
aggregate notional amount of $100 million. Under this agreement, the Company
collects interest based on specified floating interest rates of one month
LIBOR (rate of 6% at January 2, 1998) and pays interest at fixed rates (rate
of 7.99% at January 2, 1998). This agreement expires in 1998 in conjunction
with the maturity of the mortgage on the New York Marriott Marquis. Also in
1997, the Company was party to two additional interest rate swap agreements
with an aggregate notional amount of $400 million which expired in May 1997.
The Company realized a net reduction of interest expense of $1 million in
1997, $6 million in 1996 and $5 million in 1995 related to interest rate
exchange agreements. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its
contracting parties by evaluating credit exposure and referring to the ratings
of widely accepted credit rating services. The Standard and Poors' long-term
debt rating for the contracting party is A-. The Company is exposed to credit
loss in the event of non-performance by the contracting party to the interest
rate swap agreements; however, the Company does not anticipate non-performance
by the contracting party.
The Company's debt balance at January 2, 1998, includes $232 million of debt
that is recourse to the parent company. Aggregate debt maturities at January
2, 1998, excluding capital lease obligations, are (in millions):

Cash paid for interest for continuing operations, net of amounts
capitalized, was $286 million in 1997, $220 million in 1996 and $177 million
in 1995. Deferred financing costs, which are included in other assets,
amounted to $97 million and $61 million, net of accumulated amortization, as
of January 2, 1998 and January 3, 1997, respectively. Amortization of deferred
financing costs totaled $7 million, $5 million and $4 million in 1997, 1996
and 1995, respectively.
6. COMPANY-OBLIGATED MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED SECURITIES
OF A SUBSIDIARY TRUST HOLDING COMPANY SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF WHOSE ASSETS ARE
THE CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES DUE 2026
In December 1996, Host Marriott Financial Trust (the "Issuer"), a wholly-
owned subsidiary trust of the Company, issued 11 million shares of 6 3/4%
convertible quarterly income preferred securities (the "Convertible Preferred
Securities"), with a liquidation preference of $50 per share (for a total
liquidation amount of $550 million). The Convertible Preferred Securities
represent an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Issuer. The
payment of distributions out of moneys held by the Issuer and payments on
liquidation of the Issuer
46

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
or the redemption of the Convertible Preferred Securities are guaranteed by
the Company to the extent the Issuer has funds available therefor. This
guarantee, when taken together with the Company's obligations under the
indenture pursuant to which the Debentures were issued, the Debentures, the
Company's obligations under the Trust Agreement and its obligations under the
indenture to pay costs, expenses, debts and liabilities of the Issuer (other
than with respect to the Convertible Preferred Securities) provides a full and
unconditional guarantee of amounts due on the Convertible Preferred
Securities. Proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Securities
were invested in 6 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "Debentures")
due December 2, 2026 issued by the Company. The Issuer exists solely to issue
the Convertible Preferred Securities and its own common securities (the
"Common Securities") and invest the proceeds therefrom in the Debentures,
which is its sole asset. Separate financial statements of the Issuer are not
presented because of the Company's guarantee described above; the Company's
management has concluded that such financial statements are not material to
investors and the Issuer is wholly-owned and essentially has no independent
operations.
Each of the Convertible Preferred Securities is convertible at the option of
the holder into shares of Company common stock at the rate of 2.6876 shares
per Convertible Preferred Security (equivalent to a conversion price of
$18.604 per share of Company common stock). The Debentures are convertible at
the option of the holders into shares of Company common stock at a conversion
rate of 2.6876 shares for each $50 in principal amount of Debentures. The
Issuer will only convert Debentures pursuant to a notice of conversion by a
holder of Convertible Preferred Securities. During 1997 and 1996, no shares
were converted into common stock.
Holders of the Convertible Preferred Securities are entitled to receive
preferential cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 6 3/4%
accruing from the original issue date, commencing March 1, 1997, and payable
quarterly in arrears thereafter. The distribution rate and the distribution
and other payment dates for the Convertible Preferred Securities will
correspond to the interest rate and interest and other payment dates on the
Debentures. The Company may defer interest payments on the Debentures for a
period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. If interest payments on the
Debentures are deferred, so too are payments on the Convertible Preferred
Securities. Under this circumstance, the Company will not be permitted to
declare or pay any cash distributions with respect to its capital stock or
debt securities that rank pari passu with or junior to the Debentures.
Subject to certain restrictions, the Convertible Preferred Securities are
redeemable at the Issuer's option upon any redemption by the Company of the
Debentures after December 2, 1999. Upon repayment at maturity or as a result
of the acceleration of the Debentures upon the occurrence of a default, the
Debentures shall be subject to mandatory redemption, from which the proceeds
will be applied to redeem Convertible Preferred Securities and Common
Securities, together with accrued and unpaid distributions.
7. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Six hundred million shares of common stock, with a par value of $1 per
share, are authorized, of which 203.8 million and 202.0 million were issued
and outstanding as of January 2, 1998 and January 3, 1997, respectively. One
million shares of no par value preferred stock are authorized with none
outstanding. During 1995, substantially all outstanding shares of such
preferred stock were converted into approximately five million shares of
common stock with the remainder defeased.
On March 27, 1996, the Company completed the issuance of 31.6 million shares
of common stock for net proceeds of nearly $400 million.
In connection with a class action settlement, the Company issued warrants to
purchase up to 7.7 million shares of the Company's common stock at $8.00 per
share through October 8, 1996 and $10.00 per share thereafter. During 1996,
6.8 million warrants were exercised at $8.00 per share and an equivalent
number of
47
<PAGE>
HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
shares of Company common stock were issued. During 1997, approximately 60,000
warrants were exercised at $10.00 per share and an equivalent number of shares
of Company common stock were issued. As of January 2, 1998, there were
approximately 550,000 warrants outstanding.
In February 1989, the Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan
under which a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right was distributed
for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock. Each right entitles
the holder to buy 1/1,000th of a share of a newly issued series of junior
participating preferred stock of the Company at an exercise price of $150 per
share. The rights will be exercisable 10 days after a person or group acquires
beneficial ownership of at least 20%, or begins a tender or exchange offer for
at least 30%, of the Company's common stock. Shares owned by a person or group
on February 3, 1989 and held continuously thereafter are exempt for purposes
of determining beneficial ownership under the rights plan. The rights are non-
voting and will expire on February 2, 1999, unless exercised or previously
redeemed by the Company for $.01 each. If the Company is involved in a merger
or certain other business combinations not approved by the Board of Directors,
each right entitles its holder, other than the acquiring person or group, to
purchase common stock of either the Company or the acquiror having a value of
twice the exercise price of the right.

At January 2, 1998, the Company had approximately $41 million of alternative
minimum tax credit carryforwards available which do not expire.
Through 1997, the Company settled with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
substantially all issues for tax years 1979 through 1993. The Company expects
to resolve any remaining issues with no material impact on the consolidated
financial statements. The Company made net payments to the IRS of
approximately $10 million and $45 million in 1997 and 1996, respectively,
related to these settlements. Certain adjustments totaling approximately $2
million and $11 million in 1996 and 1995, respectively, were made to the tax
provision related to those settlements.

As discussed in Note 12, the Company sold and leased back 37 of its
Courtyard properties in 1995 and an additional 16 Courtyard properties in 1996
to a REIT. Additionally, in 1996, the Company sold and leased back 18 of its
Residence Inns to the same REIT. These leases, which are accounted for as
operating leases and are included above, have initial terms expiring through
2012 for the Courtyard properties and 2010 for the Residence Inn properties,
and are renewable at the option of the Company. Minimum rent payments are $51
million annually for the Courtyard properties and $17 million annually for the
Residence Inn properties, and additional rent based upon sales levels are
payable to the owner under the terms of the leases.
Leases also include long-term ground leases for certain hotels, generally
with multiple renewal options. Certain leases contain provision for the
payment of contingent rentals based on a percentage of sales in excess of
stipulated amounts.
Certain of the lease payments included in the table above relate to
facilities used in the Company's former restaurant business. Most leases
contain one or more renewal options, generally for five or 10-year periods.
Future rentals on leases have not been reduced by aggregate minimum sublease
rentals of $124 million payable to the Company under non-cancelable subleases.
The Company remains contingently liable at January 2, 1998 on certain leases
relating to divested non-lodging properties. Such contingent liabilities
aggregated $110 million at January 2, 1998. However, management considers the
likelihood of any substantial funding related to these leases to be remote.

10. EMPLOYEE STOCK PLANS
At January 2, 1998, the Company has two stock-based compensation plans which
are described below. Under the comprehensive stock plan (the "Comprehensive
Plan"), the Company may award to participating employees (i) options to
purchase the Company's common stock, (ii) deferred shares of the Company's
common stock and (iii) restricted shares of the Company's common stock. In
addition, the Company has an employee stock purchase plan (the "Employee Stock
Purchase Plan"). The principal terms and conditions of the two plans are
summarized below.
Total shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance under
employee stock plans at January 2, 1998 are:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
(IN MILLIONS)
<S> <C>
Comprehensive Plan............................................. 28
Employee Stock Purchase Plan................................... 3

===
</TABLE>
Employee stock options may be granted to officers and key employees with an
exercise price not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the
date of grant. Options granted before May 11, 1990 expire 10 years after the
date of grant and nonqualified options granted on or after May 11, 1990 expire
up to 15 years after the date of grant. Most options vest ratably over each of
the first four years following the date of the grant. In connection with the
Marriott International Distribution, the Company issued an equivalent number
of Marriott International options and adjusted the exercise prices of its
options then outstanding based on the relative trading prices of shares of the
common stock of the two companies.
The Company continues to account for expense under its plans under the
provisions of Accounting Principle Board Opinion 25 and related
interpretations as permitted under SFAS No. 123. Accordingly, no compensation
cost has been recognized for its fixed stock options under the Comprehensive
Plan and its Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
For purposes of the following disclosures required by SFAS No. 123, the fair
value of each option granted has been estimated on the date of grant using an
option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for
grants in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 6.2%,
6.6% and 6.8%, respectively, volatility of 35%, 36% and 37%, respectively,
expected lives of 12 years and no dividend yield. The weighted average fair
value per option granted during the year was $13.13 in 1997, $8.68 in 1996 and
$5.76 in 1995.
Pro forma compensation cost for 1997, 1996 and 1995 would have reduced
(increased) net income (loss) by approximately $330,000, ($150,000) and
($5,000), respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share on a pro forma
basis were not impacted by the pro forma compensation cost in 1997, 1996 and
1995.
The effects of the implementation of SFAS No. 123 are not representative of
the effects on reported net income in future years because only the effects of
stock option awards granted in 1995, 1996 and 1997 have been considered.
In connection with the Special Dividend, the then outstanding options held
by current and former employees of the Company were redenominated in both
Company and HM Services stock and the exercise prices of the options were
adjusted based on the relative trading prices of shares of the common stock of
the two companies. For all options held by certain current and former
employees of Marriott International, the number and exercise price of the
options were adjusted based on the trading prices of shares of the Company's
common stock
51

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
immediately before and after the Special Dividend. Therefore, the options
outstanding reflect these revised exercise prices. Pursuant to the
Distribution Agreement between the Company and HM Services, the Company has
the right to receive up to 1.4 million shares of HM Services' common stock or
an equivalent cash value subsequent to exercise of the options held by certain
former and current employees of Marriott International. As of January 2, 1998,
the Company valued this right at approximately $20 million, which is included
in other assets. A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plan

Deferred stock incentive plan shares granted to officers and key employees
after 1990 generally vest over 10 years in annual installments commencing one
year after the date of grant. Certain employees may elect to defer payments
until termination or retirement. Deferred stock incentive plan shares granted
in 1990 and prior years generally vest in annual installments commencing one
year after the date of grant and continuing for 10 years. Employees also could
elect to forfeit one-fourth of their deferred stock incentive plan award in
exchange for accelerated vesting over a 10-year period. The Company accrues
compensation expense for the fair market value of the shares on the date of
grant, less estimated forfeitures. In 1997, 1996 and 1995, 14,000, 13,000 and
158,000 shares were granted, respectively, under this plan. The compensation
cost that has been charged against income for deferred stock was $1 million in
1995 and was not material in 1996 and 1997. The weighted average fair value
per share granted during each year was $15.81 in 1997, $11.81 in 1996 and
$8.49 in 1995.
In 1993, 3,537,000 restricted stock plan shares under the Comprehensive Plan
were issued to officers and key executives to be distributed over the next
three to 10 years in annual installments based on continued employment and the
attainment of certain performance criteria. The Company recognizes
compensation expense over the restriction period equal to the fair market
value of the shares on the date of issuance adjusted for

forfeited in 1997. The Company recorded compensation expense of $13 million,
$11 million and $5 million in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, related to
these awards. The weighted average fair value per share granted during each
year was $16.88 in 1997 and $14.01 in 1996. There were no restricted stock
plan shares granted in 1995.
Under the terms of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, eligible employees may

11. PROFIT SHARING AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLANS
The Company contributes to profit sharing and other defined contribution
plans for the benefit of employees meeting certain eligibility requirements
and electing participation in the plans. The amount to be matched by the
Company is determined annually by the Board of Directors. The Company provides
medical benefits to a limited number of retired employees meeting restrictive
eligibility requirements. Amounts for these items were not material in 1995
through 1997.

Also in 1997, the Company acquired the outstanding common stock of the Forum
Group from MSLS (29 senior living communities) for approximately $460 million,
including approximately $270 million in debt, as described in Note 5. In
addition, the Company plans to add approximately 1,060 units to these
communities for approximately $107 million through an expansion plan which
will be completed in 1999. In 1997, approximately $56 million of the expansion
plan had been completed (including approximately $33 million of debt financing
provided by Marriott International). The Company also acquired 49% of the
remaining 50% interest in the partnership which owned the 418-unit Leisure
Park retirement community for approximately $23 million, including the
assumption of approximately $15 million of debt.

14. MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION AND RELATIONSHIP WITH MARRIOTT
INTERNATIONAL
On October 8, 1993 (the "Marriott International Distribution Date"),
Marriott Corporation distributed, through a special tax-free dividend (the
"Marriott International Distribution"), to holders of Marriott Corporation's
common stock (on a share-for-share basis), approximately 116.4 million
outstanding shares of common stock of an existing wholly-owned subsidiary,
Marriott International, resulting in the division of Marriott Corporation's
operations into two separate companies. The distributed operations included
the former Marriott Corporation's lodging management, franchising and resort
timesharing operations, senior living service operations, and the
institutional food service and facilities management business. The Company
retained the former Marriott Corporation's airport and tollroad food, beverage
and merchandise concessions operations, as well as most of its real estate
properties. Effective at the Marriott International Distribution Date,
Marriott Corporation changed its name to Host Marriott Corporation.
The Company and Marriott International have entered into various agreements
in connection with the Marriott International Distribution and thereafter
which provide, among other things, that (i) the majority of the Company's
hotel lodging properties are managed by Marriott International under
agreements with initial terms of 15 to 20 years and which are subject to
renewal at the option of Marriott International for up to an additional 16 to
30 years (see Note 15); (ii) 10 of the Company's full-service properties are
operated under franchise agreements with Marriott International with terms of
15 to 30 years; (iii) all of the Company's senior living communities are
managed by MSLS under agreements with initial terms of 25 to 30 years and
which are subject to renewal at the option of Marriott International for an
additional five to ten years (see Note 16); (iv) Marriott International
provided the Company with $92 million of financing at an average rate of 9% in
1997 (and may provide additional financing as the expansion plan is completed)
in conjunction with the acquisition of senior living communities from Marriott
International (see Notes 5 and 12); (v) the Company acquired 49% of Marriott
International's 50% interest in the Leisure Park retirement community in 1997
for $23 million, including approximately $15 million of assumed debt; (vi)
Marriott International guarantees the Company's performance in connection with
certain loans and other obligations ($107 million at January 2, 1998); (vii)
the Company borrowed and repaid $109 million of first mortgage financing for
construction of the Philadelphia Marriott (see Note 5); (viii) Marriott
International provided the Company with $70 million of mortgage financing in
1995 for the acquisition of three full-service properties by the Company at an
average interest rate of 8.5% (Marriott International subsequently sold one of
the loans in November 1996); (ix) Marriott International and the Company
formed a joint venture and Marriott International provided the Company with
$29 million in debt financing at an average interest rate of 12.7% and $28
million in preferred equity in 1996 for the acquisition of two full-service
properties in Mexico City, Mexico; (x) in 1995, the Company also acquired a
full-service property from a partnership in which Marriott International owned
a 50% interest; and (xi) Marriott International provides certain limited
administrative services.
In 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Company paid to Marriott International $162
million, $101 million and $67 million, respectively, in hotel management fees;
$13 million, $18 million and $21 million, respectively, in interest and
commitment fees under the debt financing and line of credit provided by
Marriott International, $3 million, $4 million and $12 million, respectively,
for limited administrative services. The Company also paid Marriott
International $4 million, $2 million and $1 million, respectively, of
franchise fees in 1997, 1996 and 1995. In connection with the acquisition of
the Forum Group, the Company paid Marriott International $6 million in senior
living community management fees during 1997.
Additionally, Marriott International has the right to purchase up to 20% of
the voting stock of the Company if certain events involving a change in
control of the Company occur.

15. HOTEL MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
Most of the Company's hotels are subject to management agreements (the
"Agreements") under which Marriott International manages most of the Company's
hotels, generally for an initial term of 15 to 20 years with renewal terms at
the option of Marriott International of up to an additional 16 to 30 years.
The Agreements generally provide for payment of base management fees equal to
one to four percent of sales and incentive management fees generally equal to
20% to 50% of Operating Profit (as defined in the Agreements) over a priority
return (as defined) to the Company, with total incentive management fees not
to exceed 20% of cumulative Operating Profit, or 20% of current year Operating
Profit. In the event of early termination of the Agreements, Marriott
International will receive additional fees based on the unexpired term and
expected future base and incentive management fees. The Company has the option
to terminate certain management agreements if specified performance thresholds
are not satisfied. No agreement with respect to a single lodging facility is
cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted to any other agreement and a single
agreement may be canceled under certain conditions, although such cancellation
will not trigger the cancellation of any other agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreements, Marriott International is required
to furnish the hotels with certain services ("Chain Services") which are
generally provided on a central or regional basis to all hotels in the
Marriott International hotel system. Chain Services include central training,
advertising and promotion, a national reservation system, computerized payroll
and accounting services, and such additional services as needed which may be
more efficiently performed on a centralized basis. Costs and expenses incurred
in providing such services are allocated among all domestic hotels managed,
owned or leased by Marriott International or its subsidiaries. In addition,
the Company's hotels also participate in the Marriott Rewards program. The
cost of this program is charged to all hotels in the Marriott hotel system.
The Company is obligated to provide the manager with sufficient funds to
cover the cost of (a) certain non-routine repairs and maintenance to the
hotels which are normally capitalized; and (b) replacements and renewals to
the hotels' property and improvements. Under certain circumstances, the
Company will be required to establish escrow accounts for such purposes under
terms outlined in the Agreements.
The Company has entered into franchise agreements with Marriott
International for ten hotels. Pursuant to these franchise agreements, the
Company generally pays a franchise fee based on a percentage of room sales and
food and beverage sales as well as certain other fees for advertising and
reservations. Franchise fees for room sales vary from four to six percent of
sales, while fees for food and beverage sales vary from two to three percent
of sales. The terms of the franchise agreements are from 15 to 30 years.
The Company has entered into management agreements with The Ritz-Carlton
Hotel Company, LLC ("Ritz-Carlton"), an affiliate of Marriott International,
to manage four of the Company's hotels. These agreements have an initial term
of 15 to 25 years with renewal terms at the option of Ritz-Carlton of up to an
additional 10 to 40 years. Base management fees vary from two to four percent
of sales and incentive management fees are generally equal to 20% of available
cash flow or operating profit, as defined in the agreements.
The Company has also entered into management agreements with hotel
management companies other than Marriott International and Ritz-Carlton for 12
of its hotels (10 of which are franchised under the Marriott brand). These
agreement generally provide for an initial term of 10 to 20 years with renewal
terms at the option of either party of up to an additional one to 15 years.
The agreement generally provide for payment of base management fees equal to
one to three percent of sales. Seven of the 12 agreements also provide for
incentive management fees generally equal to 15 to 20 percent of available
cash flow, as defined in the agreements.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
At January 2, 1998 and January 3, 1997, $75 million and $76 million,
respectively, have been advanced to the hotel managers for working capital and
are included in "Due From Managers" in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets.
16. SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY OPERATING AGREEMENTS
The Company's senior living communities (the "Communities") are subject to
operating agreements (the "SLC Agreements") which provide for MSLS to operate
the communities, generally for an initial term of 25 to 30 years with renewal
terms subject to certain performance criteria at the option of MSLS of up to
an additional five to ten years. The SLC Agreements provide for payment of
base management fees generally equal to five to eight percent of gross
revenues and incentive management fees generally equal to zero to 20% of
Operating Profit (as defined in the SLC Agreements) over a priority return to
the Company. In the event of early termination of the SLC Agreements, MSLS
will receive additional fees based on the unexpired term and expected future
base and incentive management fees. The Company has the option to terminate
certain, but not all, management agreements if specified performance
thresholds are not satisfied. No SLC Agreement with respect to a single
community is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted to any other SLC
Agreement and any single SLC Agreement may be terminated following a default
by the Company or MSLS, although such termination will not trigger the
cancellation of any other SLC Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the SLC Agreements, MSLS is required to furnish the
Communities with certain services ("Central Administrative Services") which
are provided on a central or regional basis to all properties in the Marriott
Retirement Community System. These services include the development and
operation of computer systems, computer payroll and accounting services,
marketing and public relations services, and such additional services as may
from time-to-time be performed more efficiently on a central or regional
level. The SLC Agreements establish payment of Central Administrative Services
fees generally equal to 0% of Gross Revenues for the first year and 2%
thereafter.
MSLS is required under the SLC Agreements to deduct an amount from gross
revenues and place the funds into an interest bearing reserve account to cover
the cost of (a) certain routine repairs and maintenance to the Communities
which are normally capitalized; and (b) replacements and renewals to the
Communities' property and improvements. The annual payment amount (expressed
as a percentage of gross revenues) generally will be 2.65% through fiscal year
2002, 2.85% for fiscal years 2003 through 2007, and 3.5% thereafter. The SLC
Agreements provide that the Company shall provide MSLS with sufficient funds
to cover the cost of certain major or non-routine repairs, alterations,
improvements, renewals and replacements to the Communities which are required
to maintain a competitive, efficient and economical operating condition in
accordance with Marriott standards or for the continued safe and orderly
operation of the Communities.
At January 2, 1998, approximately $6 million has been advanced to MSLS for
working capital for the senior living communities.
17. LITIGATION
The Company is from time-to-time the subject of, or involved in, judicial
proceedings. Management believes that any liability or loss resulting from
such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position
or results of operations of the Company.
In the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company reached a settlement in a lawsuit
against Trinity Industries and others for claims related to construction of
the New York Marriott Marquis. In settlement of the lawsuit, the Company and
its affiliate received a cash settlement of approximately $70 million, the
majority of which was considered a recovery of construction costs and $10
million of which has been recorded as other revenues in the accompanying
financial statements.

18. HOTEL AND SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY OPERATIONS
As discussed in Note 1, revenues reflect house profit from the Company's
hotel properties and senior living communities. House profit reflects the net
revenues flowing to the Company as property owner and represents all gross
hotel and senior living communities' operating revenues, less all gross
property-level expenses, excluding depreciation, management fees, real and
personal property taxes, ground and equipment rent, insurance and certain
other costs, which are classified as operating costs and expenses.
Accordingly, the following table presents the details of house profit for
the Company's hotels for 1997, 1996 and 1995:

19. GEOGRAPHIC AND BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates in two business segments in the lodging industry:
hotels and senior living communities. The Company's hotels are primarily
operated under the Marriott or Ritz-Carlton brands, contain an average of
nearly 500 rooms, as well as supply other amenities such as meeting space and
banquet facilities; a variety of restaurants and lounges; gift shops; and
swimming pools. They are typically located in downtown, airport, suburban and
resort areas throughout the United States. Senior living communities generally
contain 100 to 300 units and offer a variety of senior care services that
include independent living, assisted living and health care. The communities
provide security, meals, housekeeping, linen service and 24-hour emergency
health care.
The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on
operating profit before depreciation, corporate expenses, and interest
expense. The Company's income taxes are included in the consolidated Federal
income tax return of the Company and its affiliates and is allocated based
upon the relative contribution to the Company's consolidated taxable
income/loss and changes in temporary differences. The allocation of taxes is
not evaluated at the segment level and, therefore, the Company does not
believe the information is material to the consolidated financial statements.

HOST MARRIOTT CORPORATION
CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF REGISTRANT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION--(CONTINUED)
A) The accompanying condensed financial information of Host Marriott
Corporation (the "Parent Company") presents the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of the Parent Company with the
investment in, and operations of, consolidated subsidiaries with
restricted net assets on the equity method of accounting.
In May 1995, HMH Properties, Inc. ("Properties"), an indirect, wholly-
owned subsidiary of the Parent Company, issued $600 million of 9.5%
senior notes at par value with a final maturity of May 2005 (the
"Properties Notes").
In December 1995, HMC Acquisition Properties, Inc. ("Acquisitions"), an
indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent Company, issued $350
million of 9% senior notes (the "Acquisitions Notes") at par value with
a final maturity of December 2007.
On July 10, 1997, Properties and Acquisitions completed consent
solicitations (the "Consent Solicitations") with holders of their senior
notes to amend certain provisions of their senior notes indentures. The
Consent Solicitations facilitated the merger of Acquisitions with and
into Properties (the "Merger"). The amendments to the indentures also
increased the ability of Properties to acquire, through certain
subsidiaries, additional properties subject to non-recourse indebtedness
and controlling interests in corporations, partnerships and other
entities holding attractive properties and increased the threshold
required to permit Properties to make distributions to affiliates.
Concurrent with the Consent Solicitations and the Merger, Properties
issued an aggregate of $600 million of 8 7/8% senior notes (the "New
Properties Notes") at par with a maturity of July 2007.
The Properties Notes, the Acquisitions Notes and the New Properties
Notes are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of
Properties' subsidiaries and rank pari passu in right of payment with
all other existing future senior indebtedness of Properties. Properties
is the owner of 58 of the Company's 95 lodging properties at January 2,
1998.
The net assets of Properties at January 2, 1998 were approximately $518
million, substantially all of which were restricted. The indentures
governing the Properties Notes, the Acquisitions Notes and the New
Properties Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit the
ability to incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay
dividends or make other distributions, repurchase capital stock or
subordinated indebtedness, create certain liens, enter into certain
transactions with affiliates, sell certain assets, issue or sell stock
of subsidiaries and enter into certain mergers and consolidations.
HMC Capital Resources Corporation ("Resources") was incorporated in
Delaware on June 5, 1997, to acquire and own full-service hotels. HMC
Capital Corporation ("Capital") was incorporated as a Delaware
Corporation on November 25, 1996, and is the holder of a mortgage on the
New York Marriott Financial Center Hotel, which is owned by Resources.
The combined companies (collectively "Capital Resources") are wholly-
owned subsidiaries of HMC Capital Resources Holding Corporation
("Holdings"), a Delaware corporation formed on June 5, 1998, which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION--(CONTINUED)
On June 19, 1997, the Parent Company contributed six full-service hotels
and other assets to Resources which, when combined with the mortgage for
one of the six hotels held by Capital, represented a total contribution
of approximately $447 million. Capital Resources is the owner of seven
of the Company's 95 lodging properties at January 2, 1998.
On June 19, 1997, Resources entered into a revolving line of credit
agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with a group of commercial banks
under which it may borrow up to $500 million for certain permitted uses.
Any outstanding borrowings on the Credit Agreement as of June 19, 2000,
will be converted to a term loan arrangement with all unpaid advances
due June 19, 2004. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by
substantially all of the assets of Capital Resources and its
subsidiaries and are also guaranteed in their entirety by the Parent
Company and Holdings.
The Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit
Capital Resources' ability to pay dividends, incur additional debt,
create additional liens on its assets, engage in certain transactions
with affiliates, make investments and incur certain capital
expenditures. Capital Resources is also required to make certain
contributions to a property improvement fund and to maintain certain
debt coverage and leverage ratios.
Interest on the Credit Agreement is accrued at either the Eurodollar
rate plus 170 basis points or at the prime rate plus 70 basis points at
Capital Resources' option. Capital Resources also owes a commitment fee
of 35 basis points on the unused commitment, with payments due quarterly
in February, May, August and November. The Company paid commitment fees
of $941,000 for the fiscal year ended January 2, 1998. The Company drew
$22.2 million for the acquisition of one property. The loan matures
March 1998 and accrues interest at 7.6%.
Properties and Capital Resources are restricted subsidiaries of the
Parent Company (the "Restricted Subsidiaries") and are accounted for
under the equity method of accounting on the accompanying condensed
financial information of the Parent Company.
B) On October 8, 1993 (the "Marriott International Distribution Date"), the
Parent Company distributed, through a special tax-free dividend (the
"Marriott International Distribution") to holders of its common stock
(on a share-for-share basis) all outstanding shares of common stock of
an existing wholly-owned subsidiary, Marriott International, Inc.
("Marriott International"). Under the terms of an exchange offer (the
"Exchange Offer"), which the Parent Company completed in connection with
the Marriott International Distribution, the Parent Company secured
certain notes (the "Old Series I Notes") with a principal balance of $87
million equally and ratably with senior notes (the "Hospitality Notes")
issued in the Exchange Offer by Host Marriott Hospitality, Inc.
("Hospitality"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent
Company. The Old Series I Notes were repaid upon its maturity in May
1995. Interest expense includes $4 million in 1995 related to the
pushed-down debt discussed above.
C) Properties paid $54 million, $29 million and $36 million in 1997, 1996
and 1995, respectively, in cash dividends to the Parent Company as
permitted under the indenture agreements. There were no cash dividends
paid to the Parent Company by Capital Resources in 1997.

D) The Parent Company purchased 100% of the outstanding bonds secured by a
first mortgage on the San Francisco Marriott Hotel in 1997. The Parent
Company purchased the bonds for $219 million, an $11 million discount to
the face value of $230 million. In connection with the redemption and
defeasance of the bonds, the Parent Company recognized an extraordinary
gain of $5 million, which represents the $11 million discount less the
write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees, net of taxes.
In December 1997, the Parent Company successfully completed the
refinancing of the Marriott Hotel Properties Limited Partnership
mortgage debt for approximately $152 million. The new mortgage bears
interest at 7.48% and matures in January 2008. In connection with the
refinancing, the Parent Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $2
million which represents payment of a prepayment penalty and the write-
off of unamortized deferred financing fees, net of taxes.
Aggregate debt maturities at January 2, 1998, excluding $19 million in
capital lease obligations, are (in millions):

E) In December 1996, Host Marriott Financial Trust (the "Issuer"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary trust of the Parent Company, issued 11 million
shares of 6 3/4% convertible quarterly income preferred securities (the
"Convertible Preferred Securities"), with a liquidation preference of
$50 per share (for a total liquidation amount of $550 million). The
Convertible Preferred Securities represent an undivided beneficial
interest in the assets of the Issuer and are fully, irrevocably and
unconditionally guaranteed by the Parent Company. Proceeds from the
issuance of the Convertible Preferred Securities were invested in 6 3/4%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "Debentures") due December 2,
2026 issued by the Parent Company. The Issuer exists solely to issue the
Convertible Preferred Securities and its own common securities (the
"Common Securities") and invest the proceeds therefrom in the
Debentures, which are its sole asset.
Each of the Convertible Preferred Securities is convertible at the
option of the holder into shares of Parent Company common stock at the
rate of 2.6876 shares per Convertible Preferred Security (equivalent to
a conversion price of $18.604 per share of Parent Company common stock).
The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holders into shares
of Parent Company common stock at a conversion rate of 2.6876 shares for
each $50 in principal amount of Debentures. The Issuer will only convert
Debentures pursuant to a notice of conversion by a holder of Securities.
During 1997 and 1996, no shares were converted into common stock.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION--(CONTINUED)
Holders of the Convertible Preferred Securities are entitled to receive
preferential cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 6 3/4%
accruing from the original issue date, commencing March 1, 1997, and
payable quarterly in arrears thereafter. The distribution rate and the
distribution and other payment dates for the Convertible Preferred
Securities will correspond to the interest rate and interest and other
payment dates on the Debentures. The Parent Company may defer interest
payments on the Debentures for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive
quarters. If interest payments on the Debentures are deferred, so too
are payments on the Convertible Preferred Securities. Under this
circumstance, the Parent Company will not be permitted to declare or pay
any cash distributions with respect to its capital stock or debt
securities that rank pari passu with or junior to the Debentures.
Subject to certain restrictions, the Convertible Preferred Securities
are redeemable at the Issuer's option upon any redemption by the Parent
Company of the Debentures after December 2, 1999. Upon repayment at
maturity or as a result of the acceleration of the Debentures upon the
occurrence of a default, the Debentures shall be subject to mandatory
redemption, from which the proceeds will be applied to redeem
Convertible Preferred Securities and Common Securities, together with
accrued and unpaid distributions.
F) The accompanying statements of income reflect the equity in earnings of
Restricted Subsidiaries after elimination of interest expense (see Note
B) and before income taxes. The Restricted Subsidiaries are included in
the consolidated income tax returns of Host Marriott Corporation.
G) As more fully described in Note 2 to the Company's consolidated
financial statements, the Company completed a special dividend to
shareholders on December 29, 1995 of its operating group (the "Operating
Group") which comprised its food, beverage and merchandise concessions
business. The accompanying condensed financial information has been
restated to reflect the Operating Group as discontinued operations for
the fiscal year ended December 29, 1995.

Amendment No. 2, Revolving Credit Line
AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO
REVOLVING CREDIT LINE AND
GUARANTEE REIMBURSEMENT
AGREEMENT
Amendment No. 2 dated as of June 19, 1997 (this "Amendment") to Revolving
Credit Line and Guarantee Reimbursement Agreement dated as of June 26, 1995, as
amended by Amendment No.1 dated as of October 4, 1995 (as so amended, the
"Present Agreement") among Host Marriott Corporation, a Delaware corporation, as
borrower, Marriott International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as lender, and
certain subsidiaries of Host Marriott Corporation signatory thereto and hereto.
All capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have
the same meanings as set forth in the Present Agreement.
RECITALS:
Whereas, Host Marriott has no outstanding Advances under the Present
Agreement and has notified Marriott International of its intention to terminate
the Commitment pursuant to Section 2.3(a) of the Present Agreement; and
Whereas, upon termination of the Commitment, the Revolver Covenant Release
Date will occur, and the Revolving Credit Period will end, and the Residual
Credit Period will begin, with the result that, among other things, many of the
provisions of the Present Agreement will no longer be applicable; and
Whereas, in connection with the termination of the Commitment, Host
Marriott has requested that Marriott International release it from certain
covenants pertaining to the Acquisitions Group and acknowledge the termination
of certain other covenants pursuant to their terms, and Marriott International,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, is amenable to amending the
Present Agreement and the parties agree to do so as hereafter provided.
AGREEMENT:
Now, therefore, it is agreed:
A. Termination of the Commitment. Host Marriott hereby (1) certifies that
it has to date repaid in full all outstanding Advances, together with all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all fees payable hereunder through the
date hereof, and (2) hereby irrevocably terminates the Commitment in accordance
with Section 2.3(a). Marriott International accepts such termination (waiving
the five Business Day notice requirement of Section 2.3(a) to the extent, if
any, that such requirement may not have been satisfied). Accordingly, the
Commitment Termination Date and the Revolver Covenant Release Date shall be the
date of this Amendment for all purposes under the Agreement, and pursuant to
Section 2.7, the Commitment Fee is due and payable to Marriott International
upon execution of this Amendment.
1
<PAGE>
B. Affect of Commitment Termination on Agreement; Released Subsidiaries.
With the occurrence of the Commitment Termination Date and the Revolver Covenant
Release Date, the Revolving Credit Period ends and the Residual Credit Period
begins. Accordingly, (1) provisions under the Agreement which by their terms are
only applicable prior to the Commitment Termination Date or during the Revolving
Credit Period, including without limitation, Sections 2.1(a), 2.2, 2.3, 2.10,
2.12, 5.2, 5.3, and Article 7 shall have no further force or affect; (2) all
Pledged Collateral is hereby released; and (3) HMH Realty, Inc., HMH Holdings,
Inc., Host Marriott GTN Corporation, Host La Jolla, Inc., and Willmar
Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the "Released Subsidiaries") shall, from and
after this date, no longer be party to the Agreement.
C. Maturity of Guarantee Advances. The Host Marriott Parties hereby
acknowledge and confirm that in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Agreement,
Guarantee Advances incurred on or after the date of this Amendment shall be
immediately due and payable, and if not then paid shall incur interest at the
default rate provided for under Section 2.6(b). Marriott International agrees to
promptly notify Host Marriott of any Marriott International Guaranty funding,
provided that any failure or delay in giving such notice will neither prevent
such funding from being a Guarantee Advance nor delay the date on which that
Guarantee Advance begins to accrue interest.
D. Marriott International Guarantees and Guarantee Fee Limited to
Identified Guarantees. Host Marriott Represents and warrants that as of the date
hereof it is not aware of any outstanding "Marriott International Guarantee"
other than (1) those which are listed on Schedule 2.7 to this Amendment (the
"Scheduled Guarantees") and (2) the following three guarantees: Camelback Inn
(approximately $7.15 million), San Diego ($15 million), and Ritz-Carlton
Buckhead and Naples (approximately $5.325 million). The parties acknowledge and
confirm that the guarantees identified in clause (2) above are not (and were not
ever intended to be) subject to reimbursement pursuant to the Agreement, and
accordingly further acknowledge and agree that from and after the date of this
Amendment, only the Scheduled Guarantees shall be considered "Marriott
International Guarantees" for the purposes of determining (x) whether the
funding of a Marriott International Guarantee constitutes a Guarantee Advance
under Section 2.1(b) and (y) the amount of the Marriott International Guarantee
Fee due under Section 2.7.
E. Deletion of Covenants Pertaining to Acquisitions Group. The heading and
entire text of Section 5.5 of the Present Agreement shall be deleted and
replaced with the phrase "[Intentionally deleted]."
F. Revised Reporting Requirements. Exhibit E of the Present Agreement shall
be replaced with Exhibit E attached hereto.
G. Representations and Warranties: The Agreement and the Amendment. Each
Host Marriott Party represents and warrants that (a) each of the representations
and warranties contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.7 and 4.9 of the
Present Agreement is true and correct with respect to such Host Marriott Party
on and as of the date hereof, as though made on and as of such date (except that
the Released Subsidiaries make no representation or warranty with respect to
Section 4.2, 4.7, or 4.9) and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing on and as of the date hereof. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, each representation made in clause (a) with respect to this
Agreement shall be deemed to apply independently to both (i) this Amendment and
(ii) the Agreement, as amended hereby.
2
<PAGE>
H. Reference to and Effect on the Agreement. From and after the date of
this Amendment each reference in the Present Agreement to "this Agreement",
"hereunder", "hereof" or words of like import referring to the Agreement shall
mean and be a reference to the Present Agreement as amended hereby. Except as
specifically amended hereby, the Present Agreement is and shall continue to be
in full force and effect and is hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.
The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as
expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of
Marriott International nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the
Agreement.
I. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and
all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.
J. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be
executed and delivered by their respective duly authorized officers as of the
date first written above.

Bank and outstanding at such time shall (unless such Revolving Loans have been
declared (or have become) due and payable pursuant to this Agreement), without
any notice or action by any party hereto, automatically convert to and
thereafter constitute Term Loans owing to such Bank hereunder. The Term Loans of
any Bank (i) shall, at the option of the Borrower, be Base Rate Loans or
Eurodollar Loans, provided that, except as otherwise specifically provided in
Section 1.10(b), all Term Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times
be of the same Type and (ii) shall not exceed in initial principal amount for
such Bank an amount which equals the aggregate principal amount of Revolving
Loans owed to such Bank and outstanding immediately prior to such conversion.
Once repaid, Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
1.02 Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of
each Borrowing of Loans shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount
applicable thereto. More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at
no time shall there be outstanding more than ten Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans.
1.03 Notice of Borrowing. (a) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur a
Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent
at the Notice Office at least one Business Day's prior written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Base Rate Loan and at
least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of each Eurodollar Loan to be made hereunder, provided
that any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if
given before 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on such day. Each such written notice or
written confirmation of telephonic notice (each a "Notice of Borrowing"), except
as otherwise expressly provided in Section 1.10, shall be irrevocable and shall
be given by the Borrower in the form of Exhibit A, appropriately completed to
specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans to be incurred
pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a
Business Day), (iii) the specific uses to be made of the proceeds of such
Revolving Loans and (iv) whether the Revolving Loans being incurred pursuant to
such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar
Loans and, if Eurodollar Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable
thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Bank facsimile or
other written notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Bank's proportionate
share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding
sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless the Administrative Agent
otherwise agrees, no more than four Notices of Borrowing may be given in any 30
consecutive day period.
-2-
<PAGE>
(b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm
in writing any telephonic notice of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the
Administrative Agent may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic
notice of such Borrowing believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to
be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower prior to receipt of written
confirmation. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute
the Administrative Agent's record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such
Borrowing.
1.04 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the
date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Bank which has received the
notice referred to in the next to last sentence of Section 1.03(a) will disburse
its pro rata portion of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date. All
such amounts shall be disbursed in Dollars and in immediately available funds at
the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will promptly disburse to the
Borrower at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds,
the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Banks. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the date of
Borrowing that such Bank does not intend to disburse to the Administrative Agent
such Bank's portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Bank has disbursed such amount to the Administrative
Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, disburse to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such
corresponding amount is not in fact disbursed to the Administrative Agent by
such Bank, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount on demand from such Bank. If such Bank does not pay such
corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower
shall within one Business Day thereafter pay such corresponding amount to the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover
on demand from such Bank or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such
corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding
amount was disbursed by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until the date
such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Bank, at the overnight Federal
Funds Rate and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest
applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 1.08.
Nothing in this Section 1.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Bank from its
obligation to make Revolving Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which
the Borrower may have against any Bank as a result of any failure by such Bank
to make Revolving Loans hereunder.
-3-
<PAGE>
1.05 Notes. (a) The Borrower's obligation to pay the principal of, and
interest on, the Loans made by each Bank to the Borrower shall be evidenced by a
promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the
form of Exhibit B with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith
(each, a "Note" and, collectively, the "Notes"). The Note issued by the Borrower
to each Bank shall (i) be executed by the Borrower, (ii) be payable to such Bank
or its registered assigns and be dated the Effective Date (or, if issued after
the Effective Date, be dated the date of the issuance thereof), (iii) be in a
stated principal amount equal to the Commitment of such Bank (or, if issued
after the termination of such Commitment, be in a stated principal amount equal
to the outstanding Loans of such Bank at such time) and be payable in the
principal amount of the outstanding Loans evidenced thereby, (iv) mature on the
Final Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in the appropriate clause of
Section 1.08 in respect of the Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans, as the case
may be, evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to voluntary prepayment as provided
in Section 3.01, or mandatory repayment as provided in Section 3.02 and (vii) be
entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
(b) Each Bank will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan
made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will prior to any transfer of
its Note properly endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal
amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation (or any
error in such notation) shall not affect the Borrower's obligations to the
holder from time to time of each Note in respect of such Loans.
1.06 Conversions. The Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any
Business Day occurring after the Effective Date, all or a portion equal to at
least the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal
amount of Loans made to the Borrower into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another
Type of Loan, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.10(b),
Eurodollar Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of
an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no partial
conversion of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall reduce the outstanding
principal amount of such Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to
less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) Base Rate Loans
may only be converted into Eurodollar Loans if no Default or Event of Default is
in existence on the date of the conversion, and (iii) no conversion pursuant to
this Section 1.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of Eurodollar
Loans than is permitted under Section 1.02. Each such conversion shall be
effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office
prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) at least three Business Days' prior written
notice (or one Business Day's prior written notice in the case of a conversion
of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans) (each a "Notice of Conversion")
specifying the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such
Loans were made and, if to be converted into Eurodollar Loans, the Interest
Period to be initially applicable thereto.
-4-
<PAGE>
The Administrative Agent shall give each Bank prompt notice of any such proposed
conversion affecting any of its Loans.
1.07 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Revolving Loans shall be
incurred from the Banks pro rata on the basis of their respective Commitments.
It is understood that no Bank shall be responsible for any default by any other
Bank of its obligation to make Revolving Loans hereunder and that each Bank
shall be obligated to make the Revolving Loans provided to be made by it
hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Bank to make its Revolving
Loans hereunder.
1.08 Interest. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the
unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date the proceeds
thereof are made available to the Borrower until the earlier of (i) the maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan and (ii) the
conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to Section 1.06,
at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin
plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time.
(b) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal
amount of each Eurodollar Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made
available to the Borrower until the earlier of (i) the maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurodollar Loan and (ii) the conversion of
such Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 1.06, 1.09 or 1.10,
as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period
applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period.
(c) Overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest
in respect of each Loan and any other overdue amount payable hereunder shall, in
each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) 2% per
annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans from time to
time and (y) the rate which is 2% in excess of the rate then borne by such Loans
(without giving effect to any increase in the rate borne by such Loans as a
result of the operation of this clause (c)), in each case with such interest to
be payable on demand.
(d) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable in respect
of each Loan, (i) monthly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar
month and (ii) on any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount repaid or
prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such
maturity, on demand.
-5-
<PAGE>
(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall
determine the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period applicable to Eurodollar
Loans and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks thereof. Each such
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and
binding on all parties hereto.
1.09 Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion in respect of the making of, or conversion
into, any Eurodollar Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable
thereto) or on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest
Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan (in the case of any subsequent
Interest Period), the Borrower shall have the right to elect, by giving the
Administrative Agent notice thereof, the interest period (each an "Interest
Period") applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the
option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six-month period, provided that:
(i) all Eurodollar Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have
the same Interest Period;
(ii) the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan shall commence on
the date of Borrowing of such Eurodollar Loan (including the date of
any conversion thereto from a Loan of a different Type) and each
Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurodollar
Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest
Period applicable thereto expires;
(iii) if any Interest Period relating to a Eurodollar Loan begins on a day
for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar
month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall
end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;
(iv) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a
Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest
Period for a Eurodollar Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is
not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further
Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire
on the next preceding Business Day;
(v) no Interest Period may be selected at any time when a Default or an
Event of Default is then in existence;
-6-
<PAGE>
(vi) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans
shall be selected which extends beyond the Final Maturity Date; and
(vii) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Term Loans
shall be selected which extends beyond any date upon which a
mandatory repayment of such Term Loans will be required to be made
under Section 3.02(b), if the aggregate principal amount of such Term
Loans which have Interest Periods which will expire after such date
will be in excess of the aggregate principal amount of such Term
Loans then outstanding less the aggregate amount of such required
repayment.
If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect, or is not permitted to
elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Loans as
provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such
Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of
such current Interest Period.
1.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that any Bank shall
have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i)
below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):
(i) on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes
arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank
Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for
ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for
in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or
(ii) at any time, that such Bank shall incur increased costs or reductions
in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any
Eurodollar Loan because of (x) any change since the date of this
Agreement in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation,
order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law)
or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including
the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation,
order, guideline or request, such as, for example, but not limited
to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payment to any Bank of
the principal of or interest on such Eurodollar Loan or any other
amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on,
or determined by reference to, the net income or net profits of such
Bank, or any franchise tax based on the net income or net profits of
a Bank, in either case pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in
which such Bank is organized or in which such Bank's principal office
or applicable lending office is located or any subdivision thereof or
therein), or
-7-
<PAGE>
(B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events,
excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included
in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate and/or (y) other
circumstances since the date of this Agreement affecting such Bank or
the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Bank in such
market; or
(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan
has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule,
regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Bank in good
faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of
law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring
after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely
affects the interbank Eurodollar market;
then, and in any such event, such Bank (or the Administrative Agent, in the case
of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in
writing) to the Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the
Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Banks). Thereafter (x) in the
case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until
such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Banks that
the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no
longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or notice
given under Section 1.09 given by the Borrower with respect to Eurodollar Loans
which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be
deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the
Borrower shall pay to such Bank, upon written demand therefor, such additional
amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of
calculating, interest or otherwise as such Bank in its sole discretion shall
determine) as shall be required to compensate such Bank for such increased costs
or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as
to the additional amounts owed to such Bank, showing the basis for the
calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Bank in good faith shall,
absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties
hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one
of the actions specified in Section 1.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any
event, within the time period required by law. Each of the Administrative Agent
and each Bank agrees that if it gives notice to the Borrower of any of the
events described in clause (i) or (iii) above, it shall promptly notify the
Borrower and, in the case of any such Bank, the Administrative Agent, if such
event ceases to exist. If any such event described in clause (iii) above ceases
to exist as to a Bank, the obligations of such Bank to make Eurodollar Loans and
to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans on the terms and conditions
contained herein shall be reinstated. In addition, if the Administrative Agent
gives notice to the Borrower that the events described in clause
-8-
<PAGE>
(i) above cease to exist, then the obligations of the Banks to make Eurodollar
Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans on the terms and
conditions contained herein (but subject to clause (iii) above) shall also be
reinstated.
(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances
described in Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of
a Eurodollar Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section
1.10(a)(iii) the Borrower shall) either (x) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is
then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel the respective
Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in
writing) on the same date that the Borrower was notified by the affected Bank or
the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the
affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days'
written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Bank to convert
such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that, if more than one Bank
is affected at any time, then all affected Banks must be treated the same
pursuant to this Section 1.10(b).
(c) If at any time any Bank determines that, after the date of this
Agreement, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or
governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether
or not having the force of law and including, without limitation, those
announced or published prior to the Effective Date) concerning capital adequacy,
or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing
the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any
corporation controlling such Bank based on the existence of such Bank's
Commitment hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Borrower shall pay
to such Bank, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall
be required to compensate such Bank or such other corporation for the increased
cost to such Bank or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of
return to such Bank or such other corporation as a result of such increase of
capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Bank will act reasonably
and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are
reasonable, provided that such Bank's reasonable good faith determination of
compensation owing under this Section 1.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be
final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Bank, upon
determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this
Section 1.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which
notice shall show the basis for calculation of such additional amounts. In
addition, each such Bank, upon determining that the circumstances giving rise to
the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.10(c) cease to
exist, will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower.

<PAGE>
1.11 Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate each Bank, upon its
written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such
compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Bank to
fund its Eurodollar Loans but excluding any loss of anticipated profit) which
such Bank may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Bank
or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing or continuation of, or conversion
from or into, Eurodollar Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or notice under Section 1.09
(whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to
Section 1.10(a)); (ii) if any repayment (including any repayment made pursuant
to Section 3.01 or 3.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant
to Section 9) or conversion of any Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date which is
not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any
prepayment of any Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice
of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other
default by the Borrower to repay the Loans when required by the terms of this
Agreement or the Note held by such Bank or (y) any election made pursuant to
Section 1.10(b).
1.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Bank agrees that on the occurrence of
any event giving rise to the operation of Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section
1.10(c) or Section 3.04 with respect to such Bank, it will, if requested by the
Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of
such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such
event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Bank and
its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with
the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation
of such Section. Nothing in this Section 1.12 shall affect or postpone any of
the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Bank provided in Sections
1.10 and 3.04.
1.13 Replacement of Banks. (a) (x) If any Bank (i) becomes a Defaulting
Bank or otherwise defaults in its obligations to make Revolving Loans or (ii)
refuses to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or
terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the
Required Banks as provided in Section 12.12(b) or (y) upon the occurrence of any
event giving rise to the operation of Section 1.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section
1.10(c) or Section 3.04 with respect to any Bank which results in such Bank
charging to the Borrower increased costs in excess of those being generally
charged by the other Banks, the Borrower shall have the right, in accordance
with the requirements of Section 12.04(b), if no Default or Event of Default
will exist after giving effect to such replacement, to replace such Bank (the
"Replaced Bank") with one or more other Eligible Transferee or Transferees
reasonably acceptable
-10-
<PAGE>
to the Administrative Agent, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Bank at
the time of such replacement (collectively, the "Replacement Bank"), provided
that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 1.13, the
Replaced Bank and the Replacement Bank shall enter into one or more Assignment
and Assumption Agreements pursuant to Section 12.04(b) (and with all fees
payable pursuant to said Section 12.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Bank)
pursuant to which the Replacement Bank shall acquire the entire Commitment and
all of the outstanding Loans of the Replaced Bank and, in connection therewith,
shall pay to the Replaced Bank in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of
(1) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all
outstanding Loans of the Replaced Bank at such time and (2) an amount equal to
all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Bank pursuant to
Section 2.01 and (ii) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the Replaced
Bank (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above of this
proviso in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is
concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Bank
concurrently with such replacement.
(b) Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption
Agreements, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of the
proviso of Section 1.13(a) and, if so requested by the Replacement Bank,
delivery to the Replacement Bank of the appropriate Note executed by the
Borrower, the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank hereunder and the Replaced
Bank shall cease to constitute a Bank hereunder, except with respect to
indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
Sections 1.10, 1.11, 3.04, 12.01 and 12.06), which shall survive as to such
Replaced Bank. Upon the Replaced Bank ceasing to be a Bank hereunder, such
Replaced Bank agrees to promptly return to the Borrower the Note theretofore
delivered to such Replaced Bank pursuant to this Agreement marked "cancelled",
or if such Replaced Bank has lost or cannot find such Note, such Replaced Bank
will execute and deliver to the Borrower a customary lost note and indemnity
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower.
SECTION 2. Fees; Reductions of Commitment.
2.01 Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
distribution to each Non-Defaulting Bank a commitment commission (the
"Commitment Commission") for the period from the Effective Date to but not
including the Conversion Date (or until such earlier date as the Total
Commitment shall have been terminated), computed at a rate for each day equal to
.35% per annum on the daily average Unutilized Commitment of such Non-Defaulting
Bank. Accrued Commitment Commission shall be due and payable quarterly in
arrears on the last Business Day of each February, May, August and November and
on the Conversion Date or such earlier date upon which the Total Commitment is
terminated.
-11-
<PAGE>
(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each
Co-Agent, for their own account, such other fees as have been agreed to in
writing by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent.
2.02 Voluntary Termination of Unutilized Commitments. (a) Upon at least two
Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at the Notice
Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of
the Banks), the Borrower shall have the right, at any time or from time to time,
without premium or penalty, to terminate or partially reduce the Total
Unutilized Commitment, in integral multiples of $1,000,000; provided that each
such reduction shall apply proportionately to permanently reduce the
Commitment of each Bank.
(b) In the event of certain refusals by a Bank to consent to certain
proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this
Agreement which have been approved by the Required Banks as provided in Section
12.12(b), the Borrower may, upon five Business Days' written notice to the
Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice the Administrative Agent
shall promptly transmit to each of the Banks) terminate the entire Commitment of
such Bank so long as all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, Fees
and all other amounts owing to such Bank are repaid concurrently with the
effectiveness of such termination pursuant to Section 3.01(b) (at which time
Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect such changed amounts), and at
such time, such Bank shall no longer constitute a "Bank" for purposes of this
Agreement, except with respect to indemnifications under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, Sections 1.10, 1.11, 3.04, 12.01 and 12.06),
which shall survive as to such repaid Bank.
2.03 Mandatory Termination of Commitments. (a) The Total Commitment (and
the Commitment of each Bank) shall terminate in its entirety on June 30, 1997,
unless the Effective Date shall have occurred on or prior to such date.
(b) At 9:00 A.M. (New York time) on the Conversion Date, the Total
Commitment (and the Commitment of each Bank) shall terminate in its entirety.
SECTION 3. Prepayments; Payments; Taxes.
3.01 Voluntary Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay
the Loans, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part at any time and from
time to time on the following terms and conditions: (i) the Borrower shall give
the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) at the Notice
Office (x) at least one Business Day's prior written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Borrower's intent to prepay Base
Rate Loans and (y) at
-12-
<PAGE>
least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of the Borrower's intent to prepay Eurodollar Loans, the
amount of such prepayment and the Types of Loans to be prepaid and, in the case
of Eurodollar Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which
made, which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of
the Banks; (ii) each prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal
amount of at least $1,000,000, provided that if any partial prepayment of
Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to any Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding
Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the
Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, then such Borrowing may not be
continued as a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and any election of an Interest
Period with respect thereto given by the Borrower shall have no force or effect;
(iii) each prepayment in respect of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall
be applied pro rata among such Loans, provided that at the Borrower's election
in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section
3.01(a), such prepayment shall not be applied to any Revolving Loans of a

based on the net income or net profits of a Bank, in either case pursuant to the
laws of the jurisdiction in which such Bank is organized or in which the
principal office or applicable lending office of such Bank is located or under
the laws of any poli- tical subdivision or taxing authority of any such

applicable law certified copies of tax receipts or other documentation
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, evidencing such payment by
the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Bank, and

hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such
assignment or transfer to such Bank, (i) two accurate and complete original
signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or 1001 (or successor forms)

and under any Note, or (ii) if such Bank is not a "bank" within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue
Service Form 1001 or 4224 pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit C (any such certificate, a "Section
3.04(b)(ii) Certificate") and (y) two accurate and complete original signed
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or successor form) certifying to
such Bank's enti- tlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding
tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and
under any Note. In addition, each Bank agrees that from time to time after the
Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the
previous certification invalid or inaccurate in any material respect, such Bank
will promptly deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new
accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
4224 or 1001 (or successor forms), or Form W-8 (or successor form) and a Section
3.04(b)(ii) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be
required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Bank to a
continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with
respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note, or it shall immediately
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any
such Form or Certificate, in which case such Bank shall not be required to
deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.04(b).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3.04(a), but
subject to Section 12.04(b) and the immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the
Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to
deduct or withhold income or similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest,
Fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Bank which is not
a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the
Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Bank has not
provided to the Borrower U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms that establish a
complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (y) the Borrower shall
not be obligated pursuant to any provision of Section 3.04(a) to gross-up
payments to be made to a Bank in respect of income or similar taxes imposed by
the United States if (I) such Bank has not provided to the Borrower the Internal
Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 3.04(b) or (II) in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Bank
described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that
-17-
<PAGE>
such Forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of such
taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding
sentence or elsewhere in this Section 3.04 and except as set forth in Section
12.04(b), the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each
Bank in the manner set forth in Section 3.04(a) (without regard to the identity
of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any
Taxes deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding
sentence as a result of any changes after the Effective Date in any applicable
law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the
interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of such Taxes.

contemplated hereby, which consolidated balance sheets and projections shall be
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and
the Required Banks.

5.03 Hotel Property and Senior Living Care Facility Information; etc. Prior

other information which would reasonably lead the Administrative Agent or the
Required Banks to believe that (i) the information provided in any Information
Package with respect to any Borrowing Base Property is not true and accurate in
all material respects (or was not true and accurate in all material respects at
the time such Information Package was furnished pursuant to this Agreement) or
is incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information
not misleading in any material respect (or was incomplete by omitting to state
any fact necessary to make such information not misleading in any material
respect at the time such Information Package was furnished pursuant to this
Agreement) and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Required Banks shall
have so informed the Borrower in writing thereof or (ii) the representations and
warranties made in any of Sections 6.16(b), 6.19 and 6.20 are (or were) untrue
in any material respect at the time such representations and warranties are (or

Administrative Agent nor the Required Banks shall have so informed the Borrower
in writing thereof.
5.04 Certain Requirements with Respect to Loans. (a) Prior to the making of
any Revolving Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate
from an Authorized Financial Officer of the Borrower certifying as to the
specific uses to be made of the proceeds thereof (broken down by Hotel Property
and/or Senior Living Care Facility, as the case may be, and showing the
categories of uses as specified in Section 6.08(a)), which certificate shall be
in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(b) Prior to or contemporaneously with (as applicable) the incurrence of
any Revolving Loan the proceeds of which are to be used to acquire a Borrowing
Base Property (including by purchasing the capital stock or other equity
interests of the Person(s) owning such Borrowing Base Property), the Borrower
shall have satisfied the relevant requirements of Sections 7.11 and 8.02(viii).
Prior to the incurrence of any

Revolving Loan the proceeds of which are to be used for the purposes set forth

Loan, the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent (x)
evidence, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, demonstrating that all mortgage recording taxes and similar taxes and
charges have been paid (or funds sufficient therefor have been deposited with
the title insurance company insuring the lien of the respective Mortgages for
payment to the applicable taxing authorities) in all jurisdictions as may be
necessary with respect to such Revolving Loan or that, in the reasonable opinion
of the Administrative Agent, are desirable to maintain the priority and/or
enforceability of the Mortgages with respect to the Revolving Loans to be made
and all Revolving Loans theretofore made and (y) to the extent requested by the
Administrative Agent, a title update and endorsement as necessary to increase,
or confirm, the coverage (as applicable) of those Mortgage Policies for the
respective Borrowing Base Properties as may be necessary under applicable law to
maintain the priority of the mortgage lien as to the Revolving Loan to be made.
5.05 Subsequent Legal Opinions. If, at the time of any Revolving Loan
subsequent to the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent or the Required Banks
shall have reasonably determined that any facts, circumstances or conditions
exist which could reasonably be expected to adversely affect either (x) the
ability of counsel to issue at such time the legal opinions originally delivered
pursuant to Section 4.03 or (y) the perfection of any of the security interests
created pursuant to any Security Document, and the Administrative Agent or the
Required Banks shall have requested the Borrower to deliver one or more opinions
of counsel covering such of the matters set forth in the opinions of counsel
theretofore delivered pursuant to Section 4.03 as the Administrative Agent or
the Required Banks shall specify, then prior to the incurrence of such Revolving
Loan the Administrative Agent shall have received from counsel (who shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) an opinion in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, addressed to each
of the Agents and each of the Banks and dated the date of such Revolving Loan,

representation and warranty by Holdings, HMC Capital and the Borrower to each of
the Agents and each of the Banks that all the conditions specified in this
Section 5 and applicable to such Revolving Loan exist as of that time (except to
the extent that any of the conditions specified in this Section 5 are required
to be satisfactory to or determined by any Bank, the Required Banks, the
Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent or otherwise expressly calls
for a subjective determination to be made by any Bank, the Required Banks, the

other documents and papers referred to in this Section 5, unless otherwise
specified, shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office
for the benefit of each of the Banks.
SECTION 6. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the Banks to
enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans as provided herein, each of
Holdings, HMC Capital and the Borrower makes (as to itself and each of its
Subsidiaries), the following representations, warranties and agreements, all of
which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes
and the making of the Loans, with the occurrence of the Effective Date and the
incurrence of each Revolving Loan on or after the Effective Date being deemed to
constitute a representation and warranty that the matters specified in this
Section 6 are true and correct on and as of the Effective Date and on the date
of each such Revolving Loan (it being understood and agreed that (x) any
representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date
shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of
such specified date and (y) no representation or warranty made by Holdings, HMC
Capital and the Borrower in Section 6.02 or 6.03 is being made as to Host
Marriott).
6.01 Status. Each of Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly
organized and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability
company, as the case may be, in good standing (if applicable) under the laws of
the jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) has the corporate, partnership or
limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to own or
lease its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is
engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is
authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the
conduct of its business requires such qualifications except for failures to be
so qualified which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations,
property, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects
of Holdings, Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, the Borrower or the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

6.02 Power and Authority. Each Credit Party has the corporate, partnership
or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to
execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of each of the Credit
Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate,
partnership or limited liability company action, as the case may be, to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of each of such Credit
Documents. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Credit
Documents to which it is a party, and each of such Credit Documents constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof
may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance (but
only with respect to any guaranties or security interests given by a Subsidiary
Guarantor), reorganization or other similar laws generally affecting creditors'
rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought
in equity or at law).
6.03 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any
Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by
it with the terms and provisions thereof, (i) will contravene any provision of
any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any applicable order, writ,
injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) will
conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions
or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or
imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant
to the Security Documents) upon any of the properties or assets of Holdings or
any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed
of trust, credit agreement or loan agreement, or any other material agreement,
contract or instrument, to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is a party
or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may be
subject or (iii) will violate any provision of the certificate of incorporation,
partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, limited liability company
agreement or by-laws, as the case may be, of Holdings or any of its
Subsidiaries.
6.04 Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license,
authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with
(except as have been obtained or made and which remain in full force and
effect), or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any
subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection
with, (i) the execution, delivery and performance of any Credit Document or (ii)
the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Credit Document.

6.05 Financial Statements; Financial Condition; Undisclosed Liabilities;
Projections; etc. (a) (i) The unaudited cash flow statements for each Initial
Hotel Property for each of (x) the twelve week period ended on March 28, 1997
and (y) the latest fifty-three week period ended on January 3, 1997 and (ii) the
pro forma combined balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at March
28, 1997 and the pro forma combined cash flow statements for the latest
fifty-three week period ended January 3, 1997 (which statements have been
prepared based on the assumption that (x) in the case of the balance sheet, that
the Initial Hotel Properties were acquired by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries
on January 3, 1997 and (y) in the case of the cash flow statements, that the
Initial Hotel Properties were acquired by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries on
December 30, 1995), each present fairly the historical financial results of the
Initial Hotel Properties (and the combined results which would have applied on
the basis of the assumptions provided above). All information contained in each
Information Package furnished to the Banks pursuant to Section 4.13 (with
respect to the Initial Hotel Properties) or Section 7.11 (with respect to
subsequently acquired Borrowing Base Properties) is, to the best knowledge of
the Borrower, true and accurate in all material respects and not incomplete by
omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information not misleading in
any material respect. Since January 3, 1997 (but assuming that the Initial Hotel
Properties had been acquired by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries on such date),
there has been no material adverse change in the business, operations, property,
assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of
Holdings, Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, the Borrower or the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
(b) On and as of the Effective Date and on the date on which each Revolving
Loan is made, on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to all Indebtedness
(including the Revolving Loans) being incurred or assumed and Liens created by
each Credit Party (other than Host Marriott) in connection therewith, (x) the
sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of Holdings and its Subsidiaries (taken
as a whole) and the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) will exceed their
respective debts, (y) Holdings and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) and the
Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) have not incurred and do not intend to incur,
and do not believe that they will incur, debts beyond their ability to pay such
debts as such debts mature and (z) Holdings and its Subsidiaries (taken as a
whole) and the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) have sufficient capital with
which to conduct its business. For purposes of this Section 6.05(b) "debt" means
any liability on a claim, and "claim" means (i) right to payment whether or not
such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed,
contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured
or unsecured or (ii) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if
such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable
remedy is reduced
-31-
<PAGE>
to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed,
secured or unsecured.
(c) Except as fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered
pursuant to Section 6.05(a), there were as of the Effective Date no liabilities
or obligations with respect to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any
nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and
whether or not due) which, either individually or in aggregate, would be
material to Holdings, HMC Capital, the Borrower or the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole. As of the Effective Date, none of Holdings, HMC
Capital or the Borrower knows of any basis for the assertion against it or any
of its Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation of any nature that is not
fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section
6.05(a) which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on Holdings, Holdings and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, the Borrower or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole.
(d) On and as of the Effective Date, the financial projections, including
those prepared on a combined basis and those prepared for the individual Initial
Hotel Properties (the "Projections") previously delivered to the Administrative
Agent and the Banks have been prepared on a basis consistent in all material
respects with the financial statements referred to in Section 6.05(a) (other
than as set forth or presented in such Projections), and there are no statements
or conclusions in any of the Projections which are based upon or include
information known to Holdings, HMC Capital or the Borrower to be misleading in
any material respect or which fail to take into account known material
information regarding the matters reported therein. On the Effective Date, each
of Holdings, HMC Capital and the Borrower believed that the Projections were
reasonable and attainable. On the date of the delivery of any projections
contained in the Information Package with respect to each subsequently acquired
Borrowing Base Property, there shall be no statements or conclusions in any of
such projections which are based upon or include information known by Holdings,
HMC Capital or the Borrower to be misleading in any material respect or which
fail to take into account known material information regarding the matters
reported therein. On the date any such projections are furnished pursuant to
Section 7.11, each of Holdings, HMC Capital and the Borrower shall believe that
such projections are reasonable and attainable.
6.06 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to
the best knowledge of Holdings, HMC Capital or the Borrower, threatened (i) with
respect to any Credit Document, (ii) with respect to any material Indebtedness
of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) that could reasonably be
expected to materially and adversely affect the business, operations, property,
assets, liabilities,
-32-
<PAGE>
condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Holdings, Holdings and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole, the Borrower or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole.
6.07 True and Complete Disclosure. All factual information (taken as a
whole) furnished by or on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries in
writing to the Administrative Agent or any Bank (including, without limitation,
all information contained in the Credit Documents and all information contained
in each Information Package furnished to the Banks pursuant to Section 4.13
(with respect to the Initial Hotel Properties) or 7.11 (with respect to
subsequently acquired Borrowing Base Properties) for purposes of or in
connection with this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any transaction
contemplated herein or therein is, and all other such factual information (taken
as a whole) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of Holdings, or any of the its
Subsidiaries in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Bank will be, true
and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information
is dated or certified and, to the best of Holdings', HMC Capital's and the
Borrower's knowledge, not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to
make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect
at such time in light of the circumstances under which such information is or
was provided (subject, in the case of any information referred to in Section
6.05, to the qualifications (if any) set forth in Section 6.05 with respect to
any such information).
6.08 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. (a) The proceeds of all Revolving
Loans shall be used by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, subject to the other
restrictions set forth in this Agreement, (i) to acquire Borrowing Base
Properties, (ii) to purchase related working capital in connection with the
acquisition of such Borrowing Base Properties, (iii) to pay pre-opening costs
and make improvements to the Borrowing Base Properties so acquired to bring such
Borrowing Base Properties up to the respective Credit Party's and Facility
Manager's standards so long as (A) such pre-opening costs and improvements are
incurred and completed on or prior to the second year anniversary of such
acquisition and (B) any payments made in respect thereof utilizing Revolving
Loans are made on or prior to the thirtieth month after such acquisition, (iv)
to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition of such
Borrowing Base Properties, and (v) to make acquisitions pursuant to Sections
8.02(viii) and (ix) and/or Investments pursuant to Sections 8.05(vi) and (vii).
(b) No part of the proceeds of any Revolving Loan will be used to purchase
or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any Margin Stock. Neither the making of any Revolving Loan nor the use
of the proceeds thereof will violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of
Regulation G, T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
-33-
<PAGE>
6.09 Tax Returns and Payments. Each of Holdings and each of its
Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed, on the due dates
thereof or within applicable grace periods, with the appropriate taxing
authority, all Federal, state and other material returns, statements, forms and
reports for taxes (the "Returns") required to be filed by or with respect to the
income, properties or operations of Holdings and/or its Subsidiaries. The
Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of
Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby. Each of Holdings
and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all material taxes payable by them other
than taxes which are not delinquent, and other than those contested in good
faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. There is no material action, suit,
proceeding, investigation, audit, or claim now pending or, to the best knowledge
of Holdings, HMC Capital or the Borrower, threatened by any authority regarding
any material taxes relating to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries. As of the
Effective Date, neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into an
agreement or waiver or been requested to enter into an agreement or waiver
extending any statute of limitations relating to the payment or collection of
taxes of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries.
6.10 Compliance with ERISA. (i) Each Plan that is a single employer plan as
defined in Section 4001(a)(15) of ERISA (a "Single Employer Plan") is in
substantial compliance with ERISA and the Code; no Reportable Event has occurred
with respect to a Single Employer Plan; no Single Employer Plan is insolvent or
in reorganization; to the best knowledge of Holdings, HMC Capital or the
Borrower, no Multiemployer Plan is insolvent or in reorganization; no Single
Employer Plan has an Unfunded Current Liability; no Single Employer Plan which
is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA has an accumulated
funding deficiency, within the meaning of such Sections of the Code or ERISA, or
has applied for or received an extension of any amortization period within the
meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA; all
contributions required to be made by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any
ERISA Affiliate with respect to a Plan and a Foreign Pension Plan have been
timely made; neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any ERISA
Affiliate has incurred any material liability to or on account of a Plan
pursuant to Section 409, 502(i), 502(l), 515, 4062, 4063, 4064, 4069, 4201, 4204
or 4212 of ERISA or Section 401(a)(29), 4971, 4975 or 4980 of the Code or
reasonably expects to incur any material liability (including any indirect,
contingent, or secondary liability) under any of the foregoing Sections with
respect to any Plan; no proceedings have been instituted to terminate or appoint
a trustee to administer any Single Employer Plan; to the best knowledge of
Holdings, HMC Capital or the Borrower, no proceedings have been instituted to
terminate or appoint a trustee to administer any Multiemployer Plan; no
condition exists which presents a substantial risk to Holdings or any of its
Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a material liability to or on
account
-34-
<PAGE>
of a Single Employer Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of ERISA and the
Code; to the best knowledge of Holdings, HMC Capital or the Borrower, no
condition exists which presents a substantial risk to Holdings or any of its
Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring any material liability to or on
account of a Multiemployer Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of ERISA
and the Code; Holdings, HMC Capital and the Borrower believe that the aggregate
liabilities of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and its ERISA Affiliates to all
Multiemployer Plans in the event of a withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of
the most recent fiscal year of each such Plan ended prior to the date of the
incurrence of any Loan, could not reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the ability of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries to perform
its obligations under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents to which it
is a party; each group health plan (as defined in Section 607(1) of ERISA or
Section 4980B(g)(2) of the Code) which covers or has covered employees or former
employees of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has at
all times been operated in substantial compliance with the provisions of Part 6
of subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code; no lien imposed
under the Code or ERISA on the assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or
any ERISA Affiliate exists or, to the best knowledge of Holdings, HMC Capital or
the Borrower is likely to arise on account of any Plan; and Holdings and its
Subsidiaries do not maintain or contribute to (A) any employee welfare benefit
plan (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) which provides benefits to retired
employees or other former employees (other than as required by Section 601 of
ERISA) or (B) any Plan, the obligations with respect to which could reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Holdings or any
of its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the other
Credit Documents to which it is a party.
(ii) Each Foreign Pension Plan has been maintained in substantial
compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable
laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where
required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities. Neither
Holdings nor or any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in
connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Pension Plan.
The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested)
under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of the Borrower's most
recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which
is reasonable, does not exceed the current value of the assets of each Foreign
Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities, in the aggregate, by a
material amount.
6.11 The Security Documents. (a) With respect to the Security Agreement
Collateral that consists of cash, Cash Equivalents and property in which a
security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under
the UCC,
-35-
<PAGE>
upon (i) possession by the Collateral Agent or its designee in the case of cash,
(ii) the taking of all action required under Article 8 or Article 9, as
applicable, of the UCC in the case of Cash Equivalents and instruments and (iii)
the filing of appropriate financing statements under the UCC in the case of such
other Security Agreement Collateral (all of the foregoing actions described in
preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) having been done and being in full force
and effect with respect to such Security Agreement Collateral owned by such
Credit Party on any date on which this representation and warranty is made or
deemed made or, (x) in the case of the Effective Date, will have been done
within 10 days following the Effective Date or (y) in the case of any Security
Agreement Collateral acquired on any Addition Date, within 10 days following
such Addition Date), the Collateral Agent has been granted, for the benefit of
the Secured Creditors and pursuant to the Security Agreement, a legal, valid and
enforceable security interest in all right, title and interest of such Credit
Party in such Security Agreement Collateral, which security interest is a fully
perfected first lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest
of such Credit Party in all of such Security Agreement Collateral, subject to no
other Liens other than Permitted Liens, it being understood that no
representation and warranty is made in this Section 6.11(a) with respect to Cash
Equivalents which, in the aggregate, total less than $100,000. The recordation
of the Assignment of Security Interest in U.S. Patents and Trademarks in the
form attached to the Security Agreement (appropriately completed) in the United
States Patent and Trademark Office together with filings of financing statements
under the UCC will be effective, under applicable law, to perfect the security
interest granted to the Collateral Agent in the United States trademarks (if
any) and United States patents (if any) covered by the Security Agreement and
owned by any Credit Party party thereto on any date on which this representation
and warranty is made or deemed made and the recordation of the Assignment of
Security Interest in U.S. Copyrights in the form attached to the Security
Agreement (appropriately completed) in the United States Copyright Office
together with filings of financing statements under the UCC will be effective,
under applicable law, to perfect the security interest granted to the Collateral
Agent in the United States registered copyrights (if any) covered by the
Security Agreement and owned by any Credit Party party thereto on any date on
which this representation and warranty is made or deemed made. Each Credit Party
has good and marketable title to all Security Agreement Collateral, free and
clear of all Liens except those described above in this clause (a).
(b) Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of any certificated Pledged
Securities referred to in the Pledge Agreement and upon the taking of all
actions required by Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the UCC in the
case of any uncertificated Pledged Stock (which delivery and/or such other
actions have been done and remain in full force and effect as to all such Pledge
Agreement Collateral owned by any Credit Party on any date on which this
representation and warranty is made or
-36-
<PAGE>
deemed made), the security interests created in favor of the Collateral Agent,
as Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors under the Pledge Agreement
constitute first priority perfected security interests in the Pledged Securities

Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Borrowing Base Property of $1,000,000 or
more without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that this
provision shall not restrict the right of the lessor under any ground lease
applicable to such Borrowing Base Property (1) to settle, adjust or compromise
any claim for Insurance Proceeds to the extent such lessor is granted the power
to do so under such ground lease or (2) to approve any settlement, adjustment or

Party covenants that until so paid over to the Administrative Agent, such Credit
Party, shall hold such Insurance Proceeds in trust for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and shall not commingle such Insurance Proceeds with any
other funds or assets of such Credit Party or any other Person.
(c) The Borrower will promptly deliver written notice to the Administrative
Agent upon obtaining knowledge of the institution, or the proposed institution,
of any bona fide action or proceeding for the Taking of all or any portion of
any Borrowing Base Property. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to
participate in any negotiation, action or proceeding relating to any such action
or proceeding affecting any Borrowing Base Property, and no settlement or

no event shall any Credit Party settle, adjust or compromise any claim for
Condemnation Proceeds in respect of any Borrowing Base Property of $1,000,000 or
more without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that this
provision shall not restrict the right of the lessor under any ground lease
applicable to such Borrowing Base Property (1) to settle or compromise any claim
for Condemnation Proceeds to the extent such lessor is granted the power to do
so under such ground lease or (2) to approve any settlement or compromise of any
claim for Condemnation Proceeds to the extent the approval of such lessor is
required under such ground lease. Subject to the requirements of any ground
lease affecting any Borrowing Base Property, each condemn or concerned is hereby
authorized and directed to make payment of all Condemnation Proceeds in respect
of each of the Borrowing Base Properties payable by it directly to the
Administrative Agent. If any Credit Party receives any Condemnation Proceeds

such Borrowing Base Property) promptly endorse and transfer such Condemnation
Proceeds to the Administrative Agent and each Credit Party covenants that until
so paid over to the Administrative Agent, such Credit Party shall

Taking and (y) the commencement of the Restoration of such Borrowing Base
Property, either:
(i) to remove such Borrowing Base Property from the calculation of the
Borrowing Base, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the Release Price with
respect to such Borrowing Base Property pursuant to Section 3.02(d) in the

the respective Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to the extent same are
available to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Collateral Agent)
and not Restore such Borrowing Base Property (or Restore such Borrowing Base
Property to the extent then permitted by Section 8.07 in respect of
non-Borrowing Base Properties); or
(ii) if all the following conditions shall be satisfied, to Restore such

(F) the Credit Parties shall have complied with all notices and
other requirements under any ground lease affecting such
Borrowing Base Property that must be satisfied in respect of
such Restoration, such Restoration is permitted under the

(G) either (1) the Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds shall be
sufficient to complete the costs of such Restoration, as
determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion, or (2) in the event that such Net
Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds are insufficient to complete
the costs of such Renovation, the Credit Parties shall have
provided a cash deposit for the amount of any shortfall in
the amount of Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds necessary
to cover the costs to complete such Restoration.
If the Credit Parties shall fail to satisfy the conditions set forth in clause
(ii) of the preceding sentence or in Section 7.18(f) with respect to the related
Borrowing Base Property, or shall fail to diligently and continuously prosecute
the Work to completion (other than as a result of Excusable Delay), as

(ii) of the first sentence of Section 7.18(e) are satisfied, all Net
Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds shall be held by the Administrative Agent
(subject to the requirements of any ground lease affecting such Borrowing Base
Property) in an interest-bearing account with the Administrative Agent, with all
interest to be held therein until completion and final inspection of the Work,
and shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of the cost of
Restoring such Borrowing Base Property so damaged or destroyed or of the portion
or portions of such Borrowing Base Property not so Taken (the "Work") and shall
be paid out from time to time to the Borrower as the Work progresses, subject to
retainage as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance
with its customary construction lending practices and otherwise in accordance
with any conditions reasonably imposed by the Administrative Agent but subject
to each of the following conditions:
(i) Subject to Excusable Delays, the Borrower shall promptly (and in
any event within 60 days after the applicable Casualty Event or Taking)
commence, or cause the commencement of, Restoration of such Borrowing Base
Property.
(ii) If the Work is structural or if the cost of the Work, as
estimated by the Borrower, shall exceed the lesser of 10% of the Borrowing
Base Property Amount with respect to such Borrowing Base Property and
$1,000,000, the Work shall be in the charge of an architect or engineer
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (who may be an employee
or Affiliate of the Borrower), and before any Credit Party commences any
Work, other than temporary work to protect property or prevent interference
with business, the Administrative Agent shall have approved the plans and
specifications and the general contract for the Work to be submitted by
such Credit Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. Such plans and specifications shall provide for
such Work that, upon completion thereof, the Improvements shall (x) be in
compliance in all material respects with all Legal Requirements such that
all representations or warranties of the Credit Parties relating to the
compliance of such Borrowing Base Property with applicable laws as set
forth in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents would then be
true and correct in all material respects, and (y) be reasonably equivalent
in value and general utility to the Improvements which were on such
Borrowing Base Property prior to the Casualty Event or Taking. Such plans
and specifications shall be accompanied by (1) a signed estimate of the
Borrower, or, if an architect or engineer is required to supervise the
Work, such architect or engineer, stating the estimated cost of completing
the Work, which estimate shall bear the architect's or
-66-

engineer's seal if not made by the Borrower and (2) to the extent necessary
at such stage of the Work, certified copies of all authorizations required
in connection with the commencement and performance of the Work.
(iii) Each request for payment shall be made on seven days' prior
notice to the Administrative Agent and shall be accompanied by invoices and
by (a) a certificate to be made by such architect or engineer, if one be
required under clause (ii) above, otherwise by a certificate of an
Authorized Officer of the Borrower, stating that (1) all of the Work
completed has been done in substantial compliance with the approved plans
and specifications, if any be required under said clause (ii) above, and
(2) the sum requested is justly required to reimburse any of the Credit
Parties for payments made by the applicable Credit Party to, or is justly
due to, the contractor, subcontractors, materialmen, laborers, engineers,
architects or other Persons rendering services or materials for the Work
(giving a brief description of such services and materials), and that when
added to all sums previously paid out by the Administrative Agent does not
exceed the cost of the Work done to the date of such certificate, and (b) a
certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower stating either that
(x) the amount of such proceeds remaining in the hands of the
Administrative Agent, or (y) the amount of such funds, in the hands of the
applicable Credit Party from other sources irrevocably committed to the
completion of the Work in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent (including delivery of such funds to the
Administrative Agent for application to pay the costs of the Restoration),
will be sufficient on completion of the Work to pay for the same in full
(giving in such reasonable detail as the Administrative Agent may require
an estimate of the cost of such completion). The Administrative Agent may
require that any such statements be independently verified by an inspector
approved by the Administrative Agent to the extent that any such costs for
the Work equal or exceed $1,000,000.
(iv) Each request shall be accompanied by lien waivers satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent covering that part of the Work for which payment
or reimbursement has been made (or other evidence as shall be satisfactory

rights of mechanics, contractors, subcontractors, materialmen or suppliers
are outstanding in respect of such Work) and by a search prepared by a
title company reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
establishing that there has not been filed with respect to such Borrowing

of title in respect of any part of the Work not discharged of record or
bonded to the reasonable

priority of the Mortgage on such Borrowing Base Property.
(v) The available property Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds
which are paid or will be payable by the insurance company, together with
other cash proceeds available to the Borrower and held in a reserve by the
Administrative Agent are, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative
Agent, sufficient to pay in full costs of the Restoration.
(vi) There shall be no Default or Event of Default.
(vii) The request for any payment after the Work has been completed
shall be accompanied by (a) a copy of any certificate or certificates
required by law to render occupancy of the improvements being rebuilt,
repaired or restored legal and (b) final lien waivers for all labor,
materials and supplies from all contractors, subcontractors and
materialmen, except with respect to claims or rights being contested or
bonded in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(ii).
(viii) After commencing the Work, the Borrower or its applicable
Subsidiary shall, subject to Excusable Delays, cause such Work to be
performed diligently and in good faith in a good and workmanlike manner to
completion in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, if
any.
(xi) The Administrative Agent shall have received "agreements to
complete" of the general contractor and any independent architects or
engineers, which agreements to complete shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(x) The Borrower shall have obtained and maintained, or shall have
caused the applicable Credit Party to obtain and maintain, "all risks"
insurance in accordance with Section 7.03.

any Work, engineer's fees, architect's fees or contractor's fees and the cost
and expense of complying with this Section 7.18(f), shall be for the account of
the Borrower and/or its applicable Subsidiary. Upon completion of the Work and
payment in full therefor, the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the

Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds then or thereafter in the hands of
the Administrative Agent on account of the Casualty Event or Taking
-68-

interest thereon. Subject to the terms of any ground lease, nothing in this
Section 7.18 shall prevent the Administrative Agent from applying at any time
all or any part of the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the curing
of any Event of Default.
(g) In the event of any Casualty Event or Taking with respect to a
Borrowing Base Property which will cost (or may reasonably be expected to cost)
$1,000,000 or more to Restore (as reasonably determined by the Borrower and so
certified in a certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent) which a Credit
Party has elected to Restore, upon completion of the Restoration and delivery to
the Administrative Agent of a Completion Certificate, (i) the Administrative
Agent may hire an independent engineer to inspect the applicable Borrowing Base
Property and the Administrative Agent may deem any related Restoration not
complete unless the engineer determines that the Restoration was completed in
accordance with this Agreement and (ii) to the extent that the remaining Net
Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds from such Casualty Event or Taking equals or
exceeds $500,000, such remaining Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds shall be
applied at such time to prepay the Loans pursuant to Section 3.02(d) in the
manner set forth in Section 3.02(e) and (f). The cost of such inspection shall
be for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary.

Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or
therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and
thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of such Agent by the
terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Each Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its
respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates.

respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set
forth herein or therein.
11.03 Lack of Reliance on the Agents. Independently and without reliance
upon any Agent, each Bank and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems
appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party and
each of their Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of
the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and
(ii) its own appraisal of the credit-worthiness of each Credit Party and each
of its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no
Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing
basis, to provide any Bank or the holder of any Note with any credit or other
information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the
making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. No Agent shall be
responsible to any Bank or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements,
information, representations or warranties herein or in any document,

11.04 Certain Rights of the Agents. If any Agent shall request instructions
from the Required Banks with respect to any act or action (including failure to

shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and
until such Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Banks or, if
required by Section 12.12, the Supermajority Banks or all of the Banks, as the
case may be; and such Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of
so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank or the holder of any Note
shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such
Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit
Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks or, if
required by Section 12.12, the Supermajority Banks or all of the Banks, as the
case may be.

such Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal
matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its
duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by such Agent.

for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
11.07 Each Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation
to make Loans under this Agreement, each Agent shall have the rights and powers
specified herein for a "Bank" and may exercise the same rights and powers as
though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term "Banks,"
"Required Banks," "holders of Notes" or any similar terms shall, unless the
context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual
capacity. Each Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally
engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Credit Party or
any Affiliate of any Credit Party as if they were not performing the duties
specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower
or any other Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and
otherwise without having to account for the same to the Banks.
11.08 Holders. Each Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the
owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the
assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been
filed with such Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at
the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the
holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder,

further, that, although any Bank may transfer, assign or grant participations in
its rights hereunder, such Bank shall remain a "Bank" for all purposes hereunder
(and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitment hereunder
except as provided in Section 12.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or
participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a "Bank" hereunder and,
provided further, that no Bank shall transfer or grant any participation under
which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of
this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment
or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in
which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time
of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of
applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the
principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant's
participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a
waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the
Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such
participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted
without the consent of any participant if the participant's participation is not
increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by
the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii)
release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security
Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the
Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. In the case of any
such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this
Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant's rights against
such Bank in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the
agreement executed by such Bank in favor of the participant relating thereto)
and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such
Bank had not sold such participation.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Bank (or any Bank together with one
or more other Banks) may (x) assign all or a portion of its Commitment (and
related outstanding Obligations hereunder) to (i) its parent company and/or any
affiliate of such Bank which is at least 50% owned by such Bank or its parent
company or to one or more Banks or (ii) in the case of any Bank that is a fund
that invests in bank loans, any other fund that invests in bank loans and is
managed by the same investment advisor of such Bank or by an Affiliate of such
investment advisor or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at
least $5,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Bank or assigning Banks, of
such Commitment (and related outstanding Obligations hereunder) to one or more
Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in bank loans and any other
fund that invests in bank loans and is managed by the same investment advisor of
such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible
Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as
a Bank by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that (i)
at such time Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments
(and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be) of such new Bank and of the
existing Banks, (ii) upon surrender of the old Notes, new Notes will be issued
to such new Bank and to the assigning Bank, such new Notes to be in conformity
with the requirements of Section 1.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the
extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments (and/or outstanding Loans, as
the case may be), (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be
required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (iv) the Administrative
Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or
assignee Bank, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 and,
provided further, that such transfer or assignment will not be effective until
recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 12.16.
The Administrative Agent will promptly give the Borrower notice of any
assignment to an Eligible Transferee pursuant to clause (y) of the first
sentence of this Section 12.04(b), although the failure to give any such notice
shall not affect such assignment or result in any liability by the
Administrative Agent. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section
12.04(b), the assigning Bank shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with
respect to its assigned Commitments. At the time of each assignment pursuant to
this Section 12.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Bank hereunder and
which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective
assignee Bank shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the
appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable a Section
3.04(b)(ii) Certificate) described in Section 3.04(b). To the extent that an
assignment of all or any portion of a Bank's Commitment and related outstanding
Obligations pursuant to Section 1.13 or this Section 12.04(b) would, at the time
of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 1.10, 1.11 or 3.04
from those being charged by the respective assigning Bank prior to such
-140-
<PAGE>
assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay or reimburse such
increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other
increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the
date of the respective assignment).
(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Bank from
pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of
borrowings made by such Bank from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with the
consent of the Administrative Agent, any Bank which is a fund may pledge all or
any portion of its Loans and Notes to its trustee in support of its obligations
to its trustee. No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the
transferor Bank from any of its obligations hereunder.
12.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of
any Agent or any Bank or any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power
or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of
dealing between any Borrower or any other Credit Party and any Agent or any Bank
or the holder of any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under
any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The
rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies
which any Agent or any Bank or the holder of any Note would otherwise have. No
notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit
Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances
or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Agent or any Bank or the holder of
any Note to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or
demand.
12.06 Payments Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of
each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations
hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Banks (other than any Bank
that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment)
pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with
respect to which such payment was received.
(b) Each of the Banks agrees that, if it should receive any amount
hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the
exercise of the right of setoff or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross
action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or
otherwise), which is
-141-
<PAGE>
applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or
Commitment Commission, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums
received by other Banks is in a greater proportion than the total of such
Obligation then owed and due to such Bank bears to the total of such Obligation
then owed and due to all of the Banks immediately prior to such receipt, then
such Bank receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse
or warranty from the other Banks an interest in the Obligations of the
respective Credit Party to such Banks in such amount as shall result in a
proportional participation by all the Banks in such amount; provided that if all
or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Bank,
such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent
of such recovery, but without interest.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
provisions of the preceding Sections 12.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the
express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing
payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Banks as opposed to Defaulting Banks.
12.07 Calculations; Computations. (a) The financial statements to be
furnished to the Banks pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently
applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes
thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Banks)
("GAAP"); provided that, (i) except as otherwise specifically provided herein,
all computations of Quarterly Excess Cash Flow and Annual Excess Cash Flow, all
computations determining compliance with Sections 8.07 through 8.12, inclusive,
and all computations of the Borrowing Base shall utilize accounting principles
and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the historical financial
statements referred to in Section 6.05(a), (ii) for purposes of determining the
Borrowing Base and compliance with Sections 8.08 through 8.12 (in each case) for
any portion of a Test Period ended prior to the Effective Date, such
calculations shall be determined on a Pro Forma Basis as if the Initial Capital
Contributions had occurred on the first day of such Test Period and (iii) for
purposes of determining Quarterly Excess Cash Flow, Annual Excess Cash Flow and
compliance with Sections 8.08 through 8.12, such definitions and covenants shall
be determined as if the Existing New York Marriott Financial Center Notes did
not exist and as if there were no interest expense related thereto.
(b) All computations of interest, Commitment Commission and other Fees
hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number
of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest, Commitment Commission or other Fees are payable.

change, waiver, discharge or termination or (B) terminate such non- consenting
Bank's Commitment and repay such non-consenting Bank's outstanding Loans in

required consent by such Bank) pursuant to the second proviso to Section
12.12(a).
12.13 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without
limitation, in Sections 1.10, 1.11, 3.04, 12.01 and 12.06 shall survive the

making and repayment of the Loans.
12.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Bank may transfer and carry its Loans at, to
or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a
transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 12.14 would, at the time of such
transfer, result in increased costs under Section 1.10, 1.11, or 3.04 from those
being charged by the respective Bank prior to such transfer, then the Borrower
shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall
be obligated to pay any other
-146-
<PAGE>
increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the
date of the respective transfer).
12.15 Confidentiality. (a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this
Section 12.15, each Bank agrees that it will use its reasonable efforts not to
disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to its employees,
auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Bank if such Bank or such Bank's
holding or parent company in its reasonable good faith discretion determines
that any such party should have access to such information, provided such
Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.15 to the same
extent as such Bank) any information with respect to any Credit Party or any of
its Subsidiaries which has been, is now or in the future furnished pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Credit Document and which is designated by any
Credit Party to the Banks in writing as confidential, provided that any Bank may
disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the
public, (b) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or
testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or
claiming to have jurisdiction over such Bank or to the Federal Reserve Board or
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in
the United States or else- where) or their successors, (c) as may be required or
appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any
litigation, (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling
applicable to such Bank, (e) to any Agent or the Collateral Agent and (f) to any
prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any
contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any
interest therein by such Bank, provided, that such prospective transferee agrees
with such Bank to be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.15(a).
(b) Holdings and the Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that each Bank
may share with any of its affiliates any information related to Credit Parties
or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any
nonpublic customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Credit
Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, provided such Persons shall be
subject to the provisions of this Section 12.15 to the same extent as such
Bank), it being understood that for purposes of this Section 12.15(b) the term
"affiliate" shall mean any direct or indirect holding company of a Bank as well
as any direct or indirect Subsidiary of such holding company.
12.16 Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to
serve as the Borrower's agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.16, to
maintain a register (the "Register") on which it will record the Commitments
from time to time of each of the Banks, the Loans made by each of the Banks and
each repayment
-147-
<PAGE>
in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Bank. Failure to make
any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the
Borrower's obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Bank, the
transfer of the Commitment of such Bank and the rights to the principal of, and
interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective
until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such
recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment
and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment
or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the
Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the
Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and
Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.04(b). Coincident with the delivery
of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for
acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan,
or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Bank shall
surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in
the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or
transferor Bank and/or the new Bank. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of
whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the
Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section 12.16, provided
that the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent
for any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense which resulted solely from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.
12.17 Purchase of Loans by Marriott International. In the event that the
Obligations have been declared (or have become) due and payable or the
Collateral Agent shall have commenced foreclosure proceedings on the Collateral,
each of the Agents and the Banks hereby acknowledges and agrees for the sole
benefit of Marriott International that Marriott International or a Wholly-Owned
Subsidiary thereof shall have the right to purchase all (but not less than all)
of the Loans and Commitments of all (but not less than all) of the Banks
pursuant to this Agreement by paying the Agents and the Banks in cash an amount
equal to all outstanding principal, interest, Fees and other amounts pursuant to
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each of Holdings, HMC Capital and
the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section
12.17 are for the sole benefit of Marriott International (and may not be
amended, modified or waived without the consent of Marriott International) and
shall not affect the obligations that Holdings, HMC Capital, the Borrower or any
other Credit Party may have under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.
-148-
<PAGE>
12.18 Commercial Loan Transactions. Each of the Banks acknowledges that the
making of its Loans and the issuance by the Borrower of a Note to such Bank are
in the nature of a commercial loan transaction, and that no such Bank shall
assert that such actions are a securities transaction regulated under the
Exchange Act, the Securities Act or any other Federal or state securities laws,
it being understood that nothing in this Section 12.18 shall limit the rights of
the Banks pursuant to Section 12.04.
SECTION 13. Parents Guaranty.
13.01 The Guaranty. In order to induce each Agent and the Banks to enter
into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and in recognition of the
direct benefits to be received by each Parent Guarantor from the proceeds of the
Loans and the entering into by the Borrower of Interest Rate Protection
Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, each Parent Guarantor hereby agrees with
each Agent and the Banks as follows: each Parent Guarantor hereby jointly and
severally, and absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees as
primary obligor and not merely as surety all of the Guaranteed Obligations of
the Borrower to each Creditor. If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations
becomes due and payable hereunder, each Parent Guarantor, jointly and severally,
and absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably promises to pay such
indebtedness to the Creditors or order, on demand, together with any and all
reasonable expenses which may be incurred by the Creditors in collecting any of
the Guaranteed Obligations. This Parents Guaranty shall constitute a guaranty of
payment, and not of collection.
13.02 Bankruptcy. Additionally, each Parent Guarantor, jointly and
severally, and absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably, guarantees the payment
of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower to the Creditors
whether or not then due or payable by the Borrower upon the occurrence in
respect of the Borrower of any of the events specified in Section 9.05, and
unconditionally and irrevocably promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to
the Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.
13.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of each Parent Guarantor hereunder
is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the
Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower whether executed by such Parent
Guarantor, the other Parent Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other
party, and the liability of each Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be
affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the
Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty,
undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the
Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower, or (c) any pay-
-149-
<PAGE>
ment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking except to the
extent that such payment actually results in a permanent reduction of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase,
decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to
any Creditor on the indebtedness which such Creditor repays the Borrower
pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Parent Guarantor waives
any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason
of any such proceeding.
13.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of each Parent Guarantor
hereunder are independent of the obligations of the other Parent Guarantor, any
other guarantor or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought
and prosecuted against either Parent Guarantor whether or not action is
brought against the other Parent Guarantor, any other guarantor or the Borrower
and whether or not the other Parent Guarantor, any other guarantor or the
Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Each Parent Guarantor waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of
limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any
payment by the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute
of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of
limitations as to each Parent Guarantor.
13.05 Authorization. Each Parent Guarantor authorizes each Agent and the
other Creditors without notice or demand or consent (except as shall be required
by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing
its liability hereunder, from time to time to:
(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or
extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of
the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the rate
of interest thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and the Guaranty herein made
shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed
or altered;
(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, impair, realize upon or
otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by
whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever
securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of
those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or
hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;
-150-
<PAGE>
(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
Borrower, any other Credit Party or any other Person or otherwise act or
refrain from acting;
(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the
Borrower or other obligors;
(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any
security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder)
incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and
subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any
liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than
the Creditors, provided that the Creditors will not, without the prior
written consent of each Parent Guarantor, contractually subordinate the
payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations to any other
creditor or creditors of the Borrower, provided further that if any consent
required by the immediately preceding proviso is not obtained and
contractual subordination as described therein is agreed to, then (x) any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations not so subordinated will continue to be
entitled to the full benefits of this Parents Guaranty and (y) with respect
to any part of the Guaranteed Obligations so contractually subordinated,
each Parent Guarantor will be relieved of its obligations hereunder only to
the extent each establishes that it has been actually damaged by such
contractual subordination;
(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any
liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Creditors regardless of
what liability or liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;
(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default
under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to
herein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of
such other instruments or agreements; and/or
(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable
principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of
any Parent Guarantor from its liabilities under this Section 13.
13.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Agent or the other Creditors to
inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any other Credit Party or
the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its
behalf, and any Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the
professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.
-151-
<PAGE>
13.07 Subordination. Any of the indebtedness of the Borrower now or
hereafter owing to any Parent Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed
Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Agents and the other Creditors; and if
the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists,
all such indebtedness of the Borrower to such Parent Guarantor shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Parent Guarantor for the benefit of the
Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the
Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower to the
Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of
such Parent Guarantor under the other provisions of this Parents Guaranty. Prior
to the transfer by any Parent Guarantor of any note or negotiable instrument
evidencing any of the indebtedness relating to the Guaranteed Obligations of the
Borrower to such Parent Guarantor, such Parent Guarantor shall mark such note or
negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this
subordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Parent
Guarantor hereby agrees with the Creditors that it will not exercise any right
of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this
Parents Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code,
or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash
(it being understood that no Parent Guarantor is waiving any right of
subrogation that it may otherwise have but is only waiving the exercise thereof
as provided above).
13.08 Waiver. (a) Each Parent Guarantor waives any right (except as shall
be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require any Agent or
the other Creditors to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or
any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the
Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other
remedy in such Agent's or the other Creditors' power whatsoever. Each Parent
Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the
Borrower, such Parent Guarantor the other Parent Guarantor, any other guarantor
or any other party, other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations,
based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor
or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the
liability of the Borrower other than payment in full of the Guaranteed
Obligations. Each Agent and the other Creditors may, at their election,
foreclose on any security held by such Agent, the Collateral Agent or the other
Creditors by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every
aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is
permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy any Agent
and the other Creditors may have against the Borrower or any other party, or any
security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Parent
Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been
paid. Each Parent Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election
-152-
<PAGE>
by any Agent and the other Creditors, even though such election operates to
impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or
remedy of such Parent Guarantor against the Borrower or any other party or any
security.
(b) Each Parent Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance,
protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance,
notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty,
and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional
Guaranteed Obligations. Each Parent Guarantor assumes all responsibility for
being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower's financial condition and
assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of
the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which
such Parent Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Agents
and the other Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Parent Guarantor of
information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.
(c) Each Parent Guarantor hereby acknowledges and affirms that each
understands that to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by Real
Property located in the State of California, each Parent Guarantor shall be
liable for the full amount of the liability hereunder notwithstanding the
foreclosure on such Real Property by trustee sale or any other reason impairing
such Parent Guarantor's or any Creditor's right to proceed against the Borrower
or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations. In accordance with Section
2856 of the California Civil Code, each Parent Guarantor hereby waives:
(i) all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and
contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become
available to such Parent Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive, 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code;
(ii) all rights and defenses that such Parent Guarantor may have
because the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by Real Property located in
the State of California. This means, among other things: (A) the Creditors
may collect from any Parent Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real
or personal property collateral pledged by the Borrower; and (B) if the
Creditors foreclose on any Real Property collateral pledged by the
Borrower, (1) the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be reduced only
by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale,
even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (2) the
Creditors may collect from any Parent Guarantor even if the Creditors, by
foreclosing on the Real Property collateral, have destroyed any right such
Parent Guarantor may have to collect
-153-
<PAGE>
from the Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any
rights and defenses each Parent Guarantor may have because the Guaranteed
Obligations are secured by Real Property. These rights and defenses
include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section
580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure; and
(iii) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies
by the Creditors, even though that election of remedies, such as a
nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Guaranteed
Obligationis, has destroyed any Parent Guarantor's rights of subrogation
and reimbursement against the Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of
the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
Each Parent Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth
above is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that
if any of such waivers is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or
public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent
permitted by law.
13.09 Nature of Liability. It is the desire and intent of each Parent
Guarantor and the Creditors that this Parents Guaranty shall be enforced against
each Parent Guarantor to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and
public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If,
however, and to the extent that, the obligations of any Parent Guarantor under
this Parents Guaranty shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for
any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or
federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of
the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to be reduced and such Parent
Guarantor shall pay the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would
be permissible under applicable law.
13.10 Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Parents Guaranty, no
Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement shall be entitled
to the benefits of this Parents Guaranty unless such Interest Rate Protection
-154-
<PAGE>
Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement is reasonably related to the Loans
(including, in any event, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement entered into to
satisfy the requirements of Section 7.16) or such Interest Rate Protection
Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement provides that it is to be entitled to the
benefits of this Parents Guaranty or the Security Documents generally.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused their duly authorized
officers to execute and deliver this Agreement as of the date first above
written.
