                  To CEA's knowledge, the response to Items 2(d) and (e) of
Schedule 13D is negative with respect to CEA and all persons to whom
information is required hereunder by virtue of CEA's response to Item 2.

                  Insofar as the requirements of Items 3-6 inclusive of this
Schedule 13D Statement require that, in addition to CEA, the information called
for therein should be given with respect to each of the persons listed in this
Item 2, including CCP, CCP's individual general partners, Chase Capital, Chase
Capital's executive officers and directors, Principals, and Principals'
controlling partner, European Principals and European Principals' controlling
partner, Chase and Chase's executive officers and directors, the information
provided in Items 3-6 with respect to CEA should also be considered fully
responsive with respect to the aforementioned persons who have no separate
interests in the Issuer's Common Stock which is required to be reported
thereunder. Although the definition of "beneficial ownership" in Rule 13d-3
under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),
might also be deemed to constitute these persons beneficial owners of the
Issuer's Common Stock acquired by CEA, neither the filing of this statement nor
any of its contents shall be deemed an admission that any of such persons is a
beneficial owner of the Issuer's Common Stock acquired by CEA or a member of a
group together with CEA either for the purpose of Schedule 13D of the Exchange
Act or for any other purpose with respect to the Issuer's Common Stock.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Transactions Involving the Issuer

                  Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of
February 18, 1999 and amended as of June 28, 1999 (the "Securities Purchase
Agreement"), by and among Wyndham, Patriot American Hospitality, Inc.
("Patriot"), Patriot American Hospitality Partnership, L.P. ("Patriot OP"),
Wyndham International Operating Partnership, L.P. and certain investors,
including Apollo Investment IV (the "Original Investors"), the Original
Investors were entitled, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions set
forth therein to purchase 10,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock, $0.01 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), of Wyndham for
aggregate consideration of $1,000,000,000. Certain of the Original Investors
subsequently entered into Assignment and Assumption Agreements (the
"Assignments") with certain other Investors, including CEA and others who are
parties to the Stockholders' Agreement described below (collectively, the
"Co-Investors" and, together with the Original Investors, the "Investors"),
pursuant to which such Original Investors assigned to the Co-Investors their
right to purchase certain of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock that such
Original Investors were entitled to purchase under the Securities Purchase
Agreement.

                  Pursuant to that certain Assignment and Assumption Agreement,
dated as of June 29, 1999, by and among Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV, L.P.,
Thomas H. Lee Foreign Fund IV, L.P., Thomas H. Lee Charitable Investment L.P.,
Apollo Real Estate Investment Fund III, L.P. and Apollo Investment Fund, IV,
L.P. (collectively, the "Assignor"), Chase Equity Associates, L.P. (the
"Assignee" or "CEA"), Patriot, Patriot OP, Wyndham International, Inc.
("Wyndham") and Wyndham International Operating Partnership, L.P. and the
Original Investors, the Assignor assigned to CEA its right and obligation to
purchase 250,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock for an aggregate cash
purchase price of $25,000,000, and CEA accepted the assignment of and purchased
250,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock of Wyndham for $25,000,000.


Source of Funds

                  The funds provided by CEA for the purchase of the Issuer's
Series B Preferred Stock were obtained from CEA's contributed capital, which
includes funds that are held available for such purpose. CEA disclaims that it
is a member of a group with any other persons either for purposes of this
Schedule 13D or for any other purpose related to its beneficial ownership of
the Issuer's securities.

<PAGE>

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

                  The acquisition of the Issuer's equity securities has been
made by CEA for investment purposes. Although CEA has no present intention to
do so, CEA may make additional purchases of the Issuer's Common Stock or Series
B Preferred Stock either in the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions, including transactions with the Issuer, depending on an
evaluation of the Issuer's business prospects and financial condition, the
market for the Common Stock, other available investment opportunities, money
and stock market conditions and other future developments. Depending on these
factors, CEA may decide to sell all or part of its holdings of the Issuer's
Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock in one or more public or private
transactions. In addition, such transactions could include purchases pursuant
to the Rights Offering (as defined below) or pursuant to the exercise of
preemptive rights as described below. CEA may also maintain various credit
facilities and arrangements, including customary margin arrangements, with
banks and other financial institutions in the ordinary course of business and
in connection therewith provide to the lenders as collateral thereunder the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased by it or other securities of the
Issuer held by it.

                  Except as set forth in this Item 4, CEA has no present plan
or proposal that relates to or would result in any of the actions specified in
clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, CEA reserves the
right to propose or participate in future transactions which may result in one
or more of such actions, including but not limited to, an extraordinary
corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, liquidation or sale,
of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or its subsidiaries, or other
transactions which might have the effect of causing the Issuer's Common Stock
to cease to be listed on the NASDAQ National Market System or causing the
Common Stock to become eligible for termination of registration, under section
12(g) of the Exchange Act.

                  The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of
the holder, into shares of the Issuer's Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01
per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), which in turn is convertible on a one
for one basis into the Shares. For each share of Series B Preferred Stock
converted into Class B Common Stock, the holder is entitled to receive that
number of shares of Class B Common Stock equal to $100.00 divided by the
conversion price of the Series B Preferred Stock, which is currently $8.59 per
share, subject to adjustment, in addition to accrued by unpaid dividends. Each
share of the Series B Preferred Stock may also be converted into one share of
the Issuer's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share
(the "Series A Preferred Stock"), and other than certain permitted transfers
under the Securities Purchase Agreement, is mandatorily converted into one
share of Series A Preferred Stock if it is transferred to unaffiliated
transferees. The Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible into Shares at
the same conversion rate from time to time in effect at which the Series B
Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of Class B Common Stock.

                  Both the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred
Stock will pay quarterly dividends at the rate per annum of 9.75% of the stated
amount thereof, with a portion paid in cash and a portion paid in additional
shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, respectively.
The Series A Preferred Stock will vote on an as converted basis with the Shares
on matters submitted to the holders of the Shares and the Series B Preferred
Stock will vote as a separate class on certain specified matters, including
specified "change of control" events occurring prior to June 30, 2005. The
terms of the Series A Preferred Stock are otherwise identical to the terms of
the Series B Preferred Stock, except that the Series A Preferred Stock will not
have voting rights, except as required by law or as necessary to permit its
listing.

                  Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the
Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock (the "Certificate
of Designation"), during the 170-day period following the closing of the
transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, which occurred
on June 30, 1999, the Issuer has the right to redeem on a pro rata basis up to
3,000,000 of the 10,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock currently held
by the Investors with the proceeds of (i) a rights offering in which the
holders of the Issuer's common stock and Patriot OP's limited partnership
interests may purchase for cash up to 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock (the "Rights Offering") and/or (ii) the sale of specified assets of the
Issuer in excess of a

<PAGE>

fixed price at or prior to the closing of the Rights Offering, in each case at
a redemption price of 102% of the stated amount of $100 per share, plus accrued
but unpaid dividends to the redemption date.

                  Under the terms of the restated certificate of incorporation
of the Issuer (the "Restated Certificate"), on June 30, 1999, the Issuer's
Board of Directors (the "Board") was reconstituted to consist of 19 directors,
including eight Class A directors designated by the Board as it existed prior
to being reconstituted (the "Prior Board"), eight Class B directors designated
by the Investors and three Class C directors mutually designated by the
existing Board of Directors and the Investors. The Board is further classified
by term of office into three classes of directors, each serving a staggered
term of three years, until the annual meeting of Wyndham's stockholders in
2002.

                  The number of Class B directors that the Investors are
entitled to designate will decrease from seven to zero based on certain
specified beneficial ownership percentages of Wyndham Common Stock as more
fully set forth in the Restated Certificate.

                  The Securities Purchase Agreement provides that until the
June 30, 2004, so long as the Investors collectively own more than 15% of the
fully diluted Wyndham common stock, in the event that Wyndham proposes to sell
Wyndham common stock or securities convertible into Wyndham common stock (other
than in the Rights Offering or during the six month period following June 30,
1999), each of the Investors will have the right to purchase a portion of the
securities proposed to be sold equal to its percentage ownership of the
Issuer's outstanding securities. To the extent that one or more of the
Investors does not exercise its purchase rights in full, the unexercised
portion of the Investor's purchase rights will be allocated pro rata to the
other Investors.

                  The Securities Purchase Agreement also provides that, during
the six year period following June 30, 1999, the Investors will not (i) acquire
any shares of Wyndham common stock or securities convertible for the Issuer's
common stock, unless the securities are acquired (a) directly from the Issuer
in a transaction approved by a majority of the Class A and Class C directors,
(b) as a dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock or upon conversion of the
Series B Preferred Stock, (c) as part of the Issuer's sale of Series A
Preferred Stock or upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, (d) by an
affiliate of any Investor over whom the Investor does not control voting
decisions or hold over 50% of the outstanding voting securities, (e) as
non-voting preferred stock of the Issuer, (f) in the ordinary course of the
Investor's market-making activities or as investment adviser of broker-dealer
or (g) by an employee, partner or stockholder of an Investor for his individual
account if the individual does not acquire beneficial ownership of over 100,000
shares of Wyndham common stock; or (ii) make any public announcement or
proposal or solicitation of proxies concerning any business combination,
extraordinary transaction, restructuring or recapitalization involving the
Issuer or any affiliate of the Issuer or propose to seek representation on the
Board or seek to control or influence management, the Board or policies of the
Issuer's or an affiliate of Wyndham.

                  As contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
Board has adopted a shareholder rights plan (the "Rights Plan") under which
rights distributed to the Issuer's stockholders will become exercisable in the
event a third party (other than a "Grandfathered Person") acquires beneficial
ownership of at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the Issuer's common
stock. Each Investor will be a "Grandfathered Person" for so long as it
complies with the standstill provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement
described above.

                  On June 29, 1999, the Investors entered into a Stockholders'
Agreement (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), pursuant to which each of (i) Apollo
Management and Apollo Real Estate Management (collectively, the "Apollo
Stockholder") and (ii) THL Advisors (together with the Apollo Stockholder, the
"Lead Stockholders") will have the right, for so long as the Investors are
entitled to designate eight Class B directors to the Board, to designate four
directors to the Board. At such time as the Investors are entitled to designate
fewer than eight Class B directors, the right to designate will be allocated as
between the Apollo Stockholder and the THL Advisors based on a specified
formula. For so long as the Stockholders' Agreement is in effect, each of the
Investors has agreed to vote its Shares and Series B Preferred Stock in favor of
each of the director nominees of the Lead Stockholders.

<PAGE>

                  The Stockholders' Agreement provides that, for a five year
period from June 29, 1999, no Investor may offer, sell or otherwise dispose of
its shares of Series B Preferred Stock without the consent of each of the Lead
Stockholders, except for (i) transfers to affiliated transferees, (ii)
transfers of shares pursuant to the registration rights, tag along rights or
drag along provisions described below, (iii) bona fide pledges of shares to a
bank, financial institution or other lender and (iv) certain other permitted
transfers, subject in case of certain of these transfers to the transferee
agreeing to be bound by the provisions of the Stockholders' Agreement. The
Stockholders' Agreement does provide, however, for certain "tag-along rights"
and "drag-along rights" in favor of non-transferring stockholders with respect
to proposed transfers of securities.

                  On February 18, 1999, the Original Investors entered into a
Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with the
Issuer, pursuant to which the Investors have the right to require Wyndham to
register shares of the Issuer preferred stock or shares of the Issuer's common
stock into which the Issuer's preferred stock coverts in one or more
registrations and/or pursuant to a shelf registration statement. The
Stockholders' Agreement provides, however, that (i) any request for a
registration by the Issuer on or prior to the third anniversary of the date of
the Stockholders' Agreement shall only be made by or with the consent of both
Lead Stockholders, (ii) any request for a registration by Wyndham between the
third and fifth anniversaries of the date of the Stockholders' Agreement may
only be made by the Apollo Stockholder, THL Advisors or Beacon Capital Partners,
L.P. and its affiliates and (iii) any request for a shelf registration
statement on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of the Stockholders'
Agreement may be made only by or with the consent of the Lead Stockholders.

                  The Securities Purchase Agreement, the Assignments to which
CEA is a party, the Stockholders' Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement described are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D and are
incorporated herein by reference. The Certificate of Designation, the Restated
Certificate and the Rights Plan have been filed as exhibits to filings by the
Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The foregoing descriptions
of such agreements are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their
entirety by reference to such exhibits.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

                  (a) and (b). By virtue of the Stockholders' Agreement and the
relationships described herein, the Investors may be deemed to constitute a
"group" within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b) under the Exchange Act. As of the
date hereof, to the knowledge of CEA, the Investors collectively own an
aggregate of 116,414,435 Shares (or 39.2% of the Shares outstanding at July 9,
1999, based on information provided by Wyndham (the "Outstanding Shares"). CEA
expressly disclaims that it is a member of a "group" and the beneficial
ownership of those Investors' Shares held by any other members of such group or
Shares held individually by certain directors or executive officers of certain
of the Investors.

                  CEA has obtained beneficial ownership of 2,910,360 Shares
Pursuant to the Assignment and Securities Purchase Agreement, representing
approximately 1% of the Issuer's Outstanding Shares. CEA, however, is also
subject to regulation under Regulation Y of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and is therefore prohibited from ever owning more than
4.99% of any class of the Issuer's outstanding voting securities.

                  All of the foregoing information as to number of Shares and
percentage of Outstanding Shares beneficially owned is set forth without giving
effect to the accrual of dividends payable in additional shares of Series B
Preferred Stock. In addition, as discussed above, the number of Shares listed
above are each subject to reduction of up to 30% if redeemed by the Issuer with
the proceeds of the Rights Offering, depending upon the participation of the
Issuer's stockholders in the Rights Offering.

                  Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its
contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that CEA is a member of a
"group" and/or the beneficial owner of any of the Shares other than those which
such CEA has acquired pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or an
Assignment.

                  (c) The responses to Items 3 and 4 of this Schedule 13D are
incorporated herein by reference.

                  (d) Not applicable.

<PAGE>

                  (e) Not applicable.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
         to Securities of the Issuer.

                  The responses to Items 3, 4 and 5 of this Schedule 13D and
the Exhibits to this Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by reference.

                  Except for the agreements described in Items 3 and 4, to the
best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the persons named
in Item 2, and any other person, with respect to any securities of the Issuer
including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities,
finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls,
guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or

certificate or opinion of counsel shall be required in connection with a
transfer of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof.

Agreement; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to (a) transferees
(other than the Beacon Affiliates) pursuant to the Permitted Beacon Voting Trust
Transfer, (b) transferees pursuant to transfers permitted under Section 3.2(c)

sales pursuant to Article 5 hereof or in connection with a sale pursuant to Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933, each Stockholder shall refrain from
effecting any transfer of Shares, Series A Preferred Stock or Class B Common
Stock unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the other Stockholders shall
have been afforded the opportunity to join in such transfer on a pro rata basis,
as provided in this Section 4.1 (each such Stockholder, a "Tag-Along Person").

            (b) Prior to consummation of such proposed transfer, the Stockholder
proposing a transfer shall cause the person or group that proposes to acquire

Person, such that the number of Shares, Series A Preferred Stock or Class B
Common Stock so offered to be purchased from the Tag-Along Person shall be equal
to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate number of Shares, Series A
Preferred Stock or Class B Common Stock proposed to be purchased by the Proposed
Purchaser by such Tag-Along Person's Pro Rata Portion. If the Purchase Offer is
accepted by any Tag-Along Person, then the number of Shares, Series A Preferred
Stock or Class B Common Stock to be sold to the Proposed Purchaser by the
Stockholder proposing the transfer, shall be reduced by the aggregate number of
Shares, Series A Preferred Stock or Class B Common Stock to be purchased by the
Proposed Purchaser from such Tag-Along Person pursuant thereto. Such purchase
shall be made on the same terms and conditions (including timing of receipt of
consideration) as the Proposed Purchaser shall have offered to purchase Shares,
Series A Preferred Stock or Class B Common Stock to be sold by the Stockholder
who proposed the transfer (net, in the case of any options, warrants or rights,
of any amounts required to be paid by the holder upon exercise thereof). The
Tag-Along Person shall have 20 days from the date of receipt of the Purchase
Offer during which to accept such Purchase Offer, and the closing of such

require all other Stockholders to sell all Shares proposed to be sold therein
("Drag-Along Rights") then held by every Stockholder, for the same consideration
and otherwise on the same terms and conditions (including timing of receipt of

Stockholders, as applicable, designated in the Drag-Along Notice certificates
representing all the Shares and shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially
owned and held by such Stockholder, duly endorsed, together with all other
documents required to be executed in connection with such Drag-Along Sale, or if
such delivery is not permitted by applicable law, an unconditional agreement to
deliver such shares pursuant to this Section 4.2 at the closing for such
Drag-Along Sale against delivery to such Stockholder of the consideration
therefor.

            (c) The Lead Stockholders or the Majority Stockholders, as
applicable, shall have a period of 90 days from the date of receipt of the

however, that (i) any request for a Required

Required Registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of the Registration Rights
Agreement made during the period following the third anniversary of the date of
this Agreement through the fifth anniversary of the date of this Agreement shall
only be made by the Apollo Stockholder, the Lee Stockholder or the Beacon
Stockholder and (iii) any request for a Shelf (as such term is defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of the Registration
Rights Agreement made on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of this

Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Stockholders shall be
entitled to exercise its rights to include its Registrable Securities in a
registration effected by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(b) of the
Registration Rights Agreement if such registration is a Required Registration
made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence or if either Lead
Stockholder is including Registrable Securities in such registration. Each of
the Lead Stockholders agrees for the benefit of the other Lead Stockholder that
it will not, without the approval of the other Lead Stockholder, include its
Registrable Securities in a registration effected by the Company pursuant to
Section 2.1(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement during the three year period
following the date of this Agreement.

Beacon Voting Trust Transfer occurs, none of the shares of Preferred Stock or
Common Stock that are received by the beneficiaries of the Beacon Voting Trust
in connection therewith or are issued or issuable upon conversion of such shares
or shares received upon such conversion shall be Registrable Securities, other
than those shares that are held by the Beacon Stockholder or by a Beacon
Affiliate and remain subject to the transfer, conversion and other restrictions
of this Agreement. The Beacon Stockholder, in its capacities as the trustee and
initial beneficiary of the First Beacon Voting Trust and the Second Beacon
Voting Trust, hereby consents and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 5.1(b) on behalf of itself and all future beneficiaries of the Beacon
Voting Trust and acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility to
notify all such beneficiaries or transferees of Shares owned by the Beacon
Voting Trust of the terms of this Section 5.1(b) and the fact that they are
bound thereby.

                            Article 6. Miscellaneous

            Section 6.1. Further Actions; Cooperation. Each of the Stockholders

all respects with the requirements of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, Section 3.4 hereof). If any transferee of any Stockholder shall
acquire any Shares or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Shares, in
any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such shares shall be held
subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such
shares such Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits of and be
conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to comply with all of the
terms and provisions of this Agreement.

            Section 6.3. Representatives. Each of the Stockholders hereby
designates and appoints (and each Third Party Transferee of each such
Stockholders is hereby deemed to have so designated and appointed) the Lead
Stockholders to serve as the representatives of each such Stockholder to
administer and make determinations as to matters arising or contemplated by the
Securities Purchase Agreement and related documentation, including without
limitation indemnification obligations, disputes and other rights and
obligations. Each of the Stockholders hereby agrees and acknowledges that the
Lead Stockholders shall be the only persons authorized to take any action so
required, authorized or contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement by
each such person. Each such person hereby authorizes (and each such Third Party
Transferee shall be deemed to have authorized) the other parties hereto to
disregard any notice or other action taken by such person pursuant to the
Securities Purchase Agreement except for the Lead Stockholders. The other
parties hereto are and will be entitled to rely on any action so taken by the
Lead Stockholders.

            Section 6.4. Amendment; Modification; Waiver. No provision of this
Agreement may be amended, modified or waived except by an instrument in writing
executed by the Majority Stockholders at the time of such proposed amendment,
modification or waiver; provided, however, that, so long as either of the Lead

                                      5
<PAGE>

                  (i) Right to Require Registration. One or more Holders of
Registrable Securities shall have the right from time to time to request in
writing (a "Request") which Request shall specify the Registrable Securities

the Registrable Securities which Wyndham has been so requested to register by
Holders thereof other than the Initial Holder(s) initiating the Request by
written request given to Wyndham within 9 business days after the giving of

Required Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as

Statement have been sold pursuant thereto), including, if necessary, by filing
with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Required
Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated
therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise
supplementing or amending the Required Registration Statement, if required by
the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form
used by Wyndham for such Required Registration Statement or by the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and
regulations thereunder.

                  Wyndham shall not be required to effect, pursuant to this
Section 2(a)(i), (i) a Required Registration hereunder unless Holders
beneficially owning Registrable Securities with an aggregate Market Value of
$50 million have initiated or joined in such Request and (ii) more than eight
registrations in the aggregate requested by the Holders, provided that so long
as the Holders collectively beneficially own Registrable Securities with a
Market Value of at least $100 million,


                                      6
<PAGE>

the Holders shall have the right to require Wyndham to effect additional
Required Registrations provided that the Registrable Securities included
therein have an aggregate Market Value of at least $50 million and provided
further that any Investor proposing to distribute its Registrable Securities

effect an additional Required Registrations to facilitate such distribution.

                  A Request may be withdrawn prior to the filing of the
Required Registration Statement by the Holder(s) which made such Request (a
"Withdrawn Request") and a Required Registration Statement may be withdrawn
prior to the effectiveness thereof by the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities included therein (a "Withdrawn Required Registration"),
and, in either such event, such withdrawal shall be treated as a Required
Registration which shall have been effected pursuant to clause (ii) of the
immediately preceding paragraph, except that the Holders may require Wyndham
to disregard one Withdrawn Request for purposes of such clause (ii).

                  The Holders shall not, without Wyndham's consent, be
entitled to deliver a Request for a Required Registration after the completion
of the Required Registration if less than 90 calendar days have elapsed since
(A) the effective date of a prior Required Registration Statement, (B) in the
case of a Required Registration which is effected other than by means of an
Underwritten Offering, the date of sale by the Holders of their Registrable
Securities pursuant thereto or (C) the date of withdrawal of a Withdrawn
Required Registration.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing,
Wyndham may delay the filing of a Required Registration Statement if the Board
of Directors of Wyndham determines that such action is in the best interests
of Wyndham's stockholders, and only for an aggregate number of days, taken
together with any Blackout Period invoked pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii), not to
exceed 60 days in any twelve month period (a "Blackout Period").

                  The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 2(a)(i) shall be in addition to the registration rights
granted pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 2.

                  (ii) Shelf Registration. Promptly upon the Request of the
Holders (but in no event later than the 75th calendar day after the receipt of
such a Request), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly
process, file and cause to become effective a Registration Statement on Form
S-3 (the "Shelf") for an


                                      7
<PAGE>

offering of Registrable Securities to be made on a delayed or continuous basis
pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any similar rule that may be
adopted by the SEC) and permitting sales in ordinary course brokerage or
dealer transactions not involving an Underwritten Offering. Each Holder which
owns, on the date of the initial filing of the Shelf (the "Initial Filing
Date"), Registrable Securities (each such Holder, an "Eligible Holder") shall
have the right to resell such Registrable Securities under the Shelf until the
date that such Eligible Holder sells all of such Registrable Securities,
whether or not under the Shelf (such Eligible Holder's "Termination Date").
The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf
continuously effective and usable for resale of Registrable Securities until
all Eligible Holders lose their rights to resell Registrable Securities under
the Shelf.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) from the Closing and
until the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement, Wyndham may delay
the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement, or (B) from and after the
effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder agrees that it
will not effect any sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf
Registration, in either case, if the Board of Directors of Wyndham determines
that such action is in the best interests of Wyndham's stockholders, and only
for a Blackout Period, taken together with any Blackout Period invoked
pursuant to Section 2(a)(i), not to exceed 60 days.

                  The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 2(a)(ii) shall be in addition to the registration rights
granted pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 2.

                  (iii) Priority in Required and Shelf Registrations. If a
Required or Shelf Registration pursuant to this Section 2(a) involves an
Underwritten Offering, and the sole Underwriter or the lead managing
Underwriter, as the case may be, of such Underwritten Offering shall advise
Wyndham in writing (with a copy to each Holder requesting registration) on or
before the date 5 days prior to the date then scheduled for such offering
that, in its opinion, the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such Required or Shelf Registration exceeds the amount which can
be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the
Registrable Securities being offered, Wyndham will include in such Required or
Shelf Registration only the amount of Registrable Securities that Wyndham is
so advised can be sold in such offering; provided, however, that Wyndham shall
be required to include in such Required or Shelf Registration: first, all
Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Required or Shelf
Registration by the Holders and, to the extent not all such Registrable
Securities can be included in such Required Registration, the number of
Registrable Securities to be included shall be


                                      8
<PAGE>

allocated pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Preferred Stock or
Common Stock (whichever is applicable) beneficially owned at that time by all
the Holders requesting to participate in the Required or Shelf Registration or
on such other basis as shall be agreed among the Holders, by agreement of the
Majority Holders; and second, if all Registrable Securities requested to be
included in the Required or Shelf Registration by the Holders can be so
included, all other securities requesting, in accordance with any registration
rights which are granted in compliance with Section 6(a), to be included in
such Required Registration which are of the same class as the Registrable
Securities and, to the extent not all such securities can be included in such
Required or Shelf Registration, the number of securities to be included shall
be allocated pro rata among the holders thereof requesting inclusion in such
Required or Shelf Registration on the basis of the number of securities
requested to be included by all such holders.

                  (b)      Incidental Registration.

                  (i) Right to Include Registrable Securities. If at any time
Wyndham proposes to register any of their Preferred Stock or Common Stock
under the Securities Act (other than (A) any registration of public sales or
distributions solely by and for the account of Wyndham of securities issued
(x) pursuant to any employee benefit or similar plan or any dividend
reinvestment plan or (y) in any acquisition by Wyndham, or (B) pursuant to
Section 2(a) hereof), either in connection with a primary offering for cash
for the account of Wyndham or a secondary offering, Wyndham will, each time it
intends to effect such a registration, give written notice to all Initial
Holders of Registrable Securities at least 10 business days prior to the
initial filing of a Registration Statement with the SEC pertaining thereto,
informing such Initial Holders of its intent to file such Registration
Statement and of the Holders' rights to request the registration of the
Registrable Securities held by the Holders under this Section 2(b) (the
"Company Notice"). Upon the written request of any Initial Holder made within
7 business days after any such Company Notice is given (which request shall
specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Initial
Holder and such Initial Holder's Permitted Transferees and, unless the
applicable registration is intended to effect a primary offering of Preferred
Stock or Common Stock for cash for the account of Wyndham, the intended method
of distribution thereof), Wyndham will use all reasonable efforts to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which
Wyndham has been so requested to register by such Initial Holders to the extent
required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods of
distribution thereof or, in the case of a registration which is intended to
effect a primary offering for cash for the account of Wyndham, in accordance
with


                                      9
<PAGE>

Wyndham's intended method of distribution) of the Registrable Securities so
requested to be registered, including, if necessary, by filing with the SEC a
post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Incidental Registration
Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by
reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing
or amending the Incidental Registration Statement, if required by the rules,
regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by
Wyndham for such Incidental Registration Statement or by the Securities Act,
any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and regulations
thereunder; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written
notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective
date of the Incidental Registration Statement filed in connection with such
registration, Wyndham shall determine for any reason not to register or to
delay registration of such securities, Wyndham may, at its election, give
written notice of such determination to each Initial Holder of Registrable
Securities and, thereupon, (A) in the case of a determination not to register,
Wyndham shall be relieved of their obligation to register any Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration (but not from their obligation
to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith), and (B) in
the case of a determination to delay such registration, Wyndham shall be
permitted to delay registration of any Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such Incidental Registration Statement for the same period as the
delay in registering such other securities.

                  The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 2(b) shall be in addition to the registration rights granted
pursuant to the other provisions of this Section.

                  (ii) Priority in Incidental Registrations. If a registration
pursuant to this Section 2(b) involves an Underwritten Offering of the
securities so being registered, whether or not for sale for the account of
Wyndham, and the sole Underwriter or the lead managing Underwriter, as the
case may be, of such Underwritten Offering shall advise Wyndham in writing
(with a copy to each Initial Holder of Registrable Securities requesting
registration) on or before the date 5 days prior to the date then scheduled
for such offering that, in its opinion, the amount of securities (including
Registrable Securities) requested to be included in such


                                      10
<PAGE>

registration exceeds the amount which can be sold in (or during the time of)
such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the securities
being offered, then Wyndham will include in such registration: first, all the
securities entitled to be sold pursuant to such Registration Statement without
reference to the incidental registration rights of any holder (including the
Holders), and second, the amount of other securities (including Registrable
Securities) requested to be included in such registration that Wyndham is so
advised can be sold in (or during the time of) such offering, allocated, if
necessary, pro rata among the holders (including the Holders) thereof
requesting such registration on the basis of the number of the securities
(including Registrable Securities) beneficially owned at the time by the
holders (including the Holders) requesting inclusion of their securities;
provided, however, that in the event Wyndham will not, by virtue of this
paragraph, include in any such registration all of the Registrable Securities
of any Holder requested to be included in such registration, such Holder may,
upon written notice to Wyndham given within 3 days of the time such Holder
first is notified of such matter, reduce the amount of Registrable Securities
it desires to have included in such registration, whereupon only the
Registrable Securities, if any, it desires to have included will be so
included and the Holders not so reducing shall be entitled to a corresponding
increase in the amount of Registrable Securities to be included in such
registration.

                  (c) Expenses. Wyndham agrees to pay all Registration
Expenses in connection with (i) each of the registrations requested pursuant
to Section 2(a) and (ii) each registration as to which Holders request
inclusion of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(b). All Selling
Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be
borne by the Holders of shares included in such registration, other selling
stockholders and Wyndham pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of
Preferred Stock or Common Stock so registered.

                  (d) Effective Registration Statement; Suspension. Subject to
the third paragraph of Section 2(a)(i), a Registration Statement pursuant to
Section 2(a) will not be deemed to have become effective (and the related
registration will not be deemed to have been effected) unless it has been
declared effective by the SEC prior to a request by the Holders of a majority
of the Registrable Securities included in such registration that such
Registration Statement be withdrawn; provided, however, that if, after it has
been declared effective, the offering of any Registrable Securities pursuant
to such Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order,
injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental
agency or court shall have been in effect for at least 30 days, such
Registration Statement will be deemed not to have become effective and the
related registration will not be deemed to have been effected.

                  (e) Selection of Underwriters. At any time or from time to
time, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by a
Required Registration Statement may elect to have such Registrable Securities
sold in an Underwritten Offering and may select the investment banker or
investment bankers and manager or managers that will serve as lead and
co-managing Underwriters with


                                      11
<PAGE>

respect to the offering of such Registrable Securities, subject to the consent
of Wyndham which shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Holder may participate
in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell
such Holder's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting
arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, custody agreements, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other
documents required under the terms of such Underwritten Offering.

                  Section  3.       Restrictions on Public Sale by Wyndham.

                  If requested by the sole Underwriter or lead managing
Underwriter(s) in such Underwritten Offering, Wyndham agrees not to effect any
public sale or distribution (other than public sales or distributions solely
by and for the account of Wyndham of securities issued pursuant to any
employee benefit or similar plan or any dividend reinvestment plan) of any
securities during the period commencing on the date Wyndham receives a Request
from any Initial Holder and continuing until (a) for a Registration Statement
relating to such Underwritten Offering other than a Shelf Registration, 90
days after such Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC and
(b) for a Shelf Registration Statement relating to such Underwritten Offering,
90 days after the commencement of such Underwritten Offering, (or for such
shorter period as the sole or lead managing Underwriter shall request) unless
earlier terminated by the sole Underwriter or lead managing Underwriter(s) in
such Underwritten Offering.

                  Section 4.        Registration Procedures.

                  In connection with the obligations of Wyndham pursuant to
Section 2, Wyndham shall use all reasonable efforts to effect or cause to be

by the selling Holders thereof and (z) shall comply as to form with the
requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements
required by the SEC to be filed therewith and all other information reasonably
requested by the lead managing Underwriter or sole


                                      12
<PAGE>

Underwriter, if applicable, to be included therein, (ii) use all reasonable
efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain
effective in accordance with Section 2, (iii) use all reasonable efforts to
not take any action that would cause a Registration Statement to contain a
material misstatement or omission or to be not effective and usable for resale
of Registrable Securities during the period that such Registration Statement
is required to be effective and usable and (iv) cause each Registration
Statement and the related Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto,
as of the effective date of such Registration Statement, amendment or
supplement (x) to comply in all material respects with any requirements of the
Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC and (y) not to contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading;

                  (b) subject to paragraph (j) of this Section 4, prepare and
file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each such
Registration Statement, as may be necessary to keep such Registration
Statement effective for the applicable period; cause each such Prospectus to
be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented
to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by each Registration Statement during the applicable period
in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the
selling Holders thereof, as set forth in such registration statement;

                  (c) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities and to
each Underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if
any, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus, including each
preliminary Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto and such other
documents as such Holder or Underwriter may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of any Registrable Securities;
Wyndham hereby consents to the use of the Prospectus, including each
preliminary Prospectus, by each Holder of Registrable Securities and each
Underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if any, in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
the Prospectus or the preliminary Prospectus (the Holders hereby agreeing not
to make a broad public dissemination of a form of preliminary Prospec tus
which is designed to be a "quiet filing" without Wyndham's consent, such
consent to not be withheld unreasonably);

                  (d) (i) use all reasonable efforts to register or qualify
the Registrable Securities, no later than the time the applicable Registration
Statement is


                                      13
<PAGE>

declared effective by the SEC, under all applicable state securities or "blue
sky" laws of such jurisdictions as each Underwriter, if any, or any Holder of
Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement, shall reasonably
request; (ii) use all reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or
qualification effective during the period such Registration Statement is
required to be kept effective; and (iii) do any and all other acts and things
which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each such
Underwriter, if any, and Holder to consummate the disposition in each such
jurisdiction of such Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; pro vided,
however, that Wyndham shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corpora
tion or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so
qualified or to consent to be subject to general service of process (other
than service of process in connection with such registration or qualification
or any sale of Registrable Securities in connection therewith) in any such
jurisdiction;

                  (e) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities promptly,
and, if requested by such Holder, confirm such advice in writing, (i) when a
Registration Statement has become effective and when any post-effective
amendments and supplements thereto become effective, (ii) of the issuance by
the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order, injunction or
other order or requirement suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iii) if,
between the effective date of a Registration Statement and the closing of any
sale of securities covered thereby pursuant to any agreement to which Wyndham

<PAGE>

                  (p) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made
with the NASD and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any
Under writer in an Underwritten Offering; and

                  (q) use all reasonable efforts to facilitate the

this Agreement, including without limitation by making road show

                  Each selling Holder of Registrable Securities as to which

condition to the registration obligations with respect to such Holder provided

Securities by such Holder and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such
Registrable Securities as Wyndham may from time to time reasonably request in
writing.

such Holder will deliver to Wyndham (at the expense of Wyndham), all copies in
its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder's
possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities which was
current at the time of receipt of such notice.

                  Section 5.        Indemnification; Contribution.

                  (a) Indemnification by Wyndham. Wyndham agrees, jointly and
severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Person who participates as an
underwriter (any such Person being an "Underwriter"), each Holder and their
respective partners, directors, officers and employees and each Person, if
any, who controls any Holder or Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:


                                      18
<PAGE>

                  (i) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims,
         damages, judg ments and expenses whatsoever, as incurred, arising out
         of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
         fact contained in any Registration Statement pursuant to which
         Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act,
         including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the
         omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to
         be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
         misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue
         statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, including
         all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or
         alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to
         make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
         which they were made, not misleading;

                  (ii) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims,
         damages, judgments and expenses whatsoever, as incurred, to the
         extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation,
         investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body,
         commenced or threatened, or of any other claim whatsoever based upon
         any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue
         statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the
         written consent of Wyndham; and

                  (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred
         (including fees and disbursements of counsel), incurred in
         investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
         investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body,
         commenced or threatened, in each case whether or not such Person is a
         party, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or
         omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the
         extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or
         (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement does not apply to any Holder
or Underwriter with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment or
expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, or the omission or
alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, in any such case made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to Wyndham by such Holder or Underwriter
expressly for use in a Registration


                                      19
<PAGE>

Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus (or any amendment or
supple ment thereto).

                  (b) Indemnification by Holders. (i) Each selling Holder
severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Wyndham, each Underwriter and
the other selling Holders, and each of their respective partners, directors,
officers and employ ees (including each officer of Wyndham who signed the
Registration Statement), and each Person, if any, who controls Wyndham, any
Underwriter or any other selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages,
judgments and expenses described in the indemnity contained in paragraph (a)
of this Section (provided that any settlement of the type described therein is
effected with the written consent of such selling Holder), as incurred, but
only with respect to untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of a
material fact contained in any Prospectus or the omissions, or alleged
omissions therefrom of a material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, in any such case made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to Wyndham by such selling Holder expressly for
use in such Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such
Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

                  (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Each indemnified
party or parties shall give reasonably prompt notice to each indemnifying
party or parties of any action or proceeding commenced against it in respect
of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an
indemnifying party or parties shall not relieve it or them from any liability
which it or they may have under this indemnity agreement, except to the extent
that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give
notice. If the indemnifying party or parties so elects within a reasonable
time after receipt of such notice, the indemnifying party or parties may
assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party's
or parties' expense with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party or parties
and approved by the indemnified party defendant in such action or proceeding,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that, if
such indemnified party or parties determine in good faith that a conflict of
interest exists and that therefore it is advisable for such indemnified party
or parties to be represented by separate counsel or that, upon advice of
counsel, there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are
different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party,
then the indemnifying party or parties shall not be entitled to assume such
defense and the indemnified party or parties shall be entitled to separate
counsel (limited in each jurisdiction to one


                                      20
<PAGE>

counsel for all Underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified
parties under this Agreement) at the indemnifying party's or parties' expense.
If an indemnifying party or parties is not so entitled to assume the defense
of such action or does not assume such defense, after having received the
notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying
party or parties will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the
indemnified party or parties (limited in each jurisdiction to one counsel for
all Underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified parties under
this Agreement). No indemnifying party or parties will be liable for any
settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party or
parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If an indemnifying
party is entitled to assume, and assumes, the defense of such action or
proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, such indemnifying party or
parties shall not, except as otherwise provided in this subsection (c), be
liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified parties
incurred thereafter in connection with such action or proceeding.

                  (d) Contribution. (i) In order to provide for just and
equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement
provided for in this Section is for any reason held to be unenforceable by the
indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms in
respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses
suffered by an indemnified party referred to therein, each applicable
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Wyndham on the
one hand and of the liable selling Holders (including, in each case, that of
their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages, judgments or expenses, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of Wyndham on the one
hand and of the liable selling Holders (including, in each case, that of
their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other shall
be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Wyndham,
on the one hand, or by or on behalf of the selling Holders, on the other, and
the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable
by a party as a result of the losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments
and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section, any legal or other
fees or expenses reasona-


                                      21
<PAGE>

bly incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any
action or claim.

                  (ii) Wyndham and each Holder of Registrable Securities agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
paragraph (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in sub-paragraph (i) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
paragraph (d), in the case of distributions to the public, an indemnifying
Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount
by which (A) the total price at which the Registrable Securities sold by such
indemnifying Holder and its affiliated indemnifying Holders and distributed to
the public were offered to the public exceeds (B) the amount of any damages
which such indemnifying Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No
Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11 (f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

                  (iii) For purposes of this Section, each Person, if any, who
controls a Holder or an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act (and their respective partners, directors, officers and
employees) shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder or
Underwriter; and each director of Wyndham, each officer of Wyndham who signed
the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who controls Wyndham
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, shall have the same
rights to contribution as Wyndham.

                  Section 6.        Miscellaneous.

                  (a) Inconsistent Agreements. Wyndham is not a party to, and
will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into, any agreement
which conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement nor has Wyndham entered
into any such agreement, and Wyndham will not on or after the date of this
Agreement modify in any manner adverse to the Holders any such agreement;
provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall prohibit Wyndham from
granting registration rights, which become exercisable from and after the
Closing, to any Person (a "Third Party") who becomes an owner of shares of any
of Wyndham's capital stock after the date hereof (including granting
incidental registration rights with respect to any Registration Statement
required to be filed or maintained hereunder) if and only if (i) the
Third-Party's registration rights (including, without limitation, demand
registration rights) provide to the Holders of Registrable Securities who
seek to


                                      22
<PAGE>

participate in such registration (whether or not such registration is
initiated hereunder) rights no less favorable to such Holders than those
rights provided to the Holders hereunder as if such registration were a
Required Registration (including, without limitation, the priority provisions
contained in Section 2(a)(iii)), provided, further, however, that if such
registration is not initiated by the Initial Holders such registration shall
not be deemed one of the eight Required Registrations for purposes of the
limitations contained in the second paragraph of Section 2(a)(i), and (ii) the
Third Party is required to enter into the agreements provided for in Section 3
hereof (as if it were Wyndham) on the terms and for the period applicable to
Wyndham (including preventing sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act) if requested by the sole Underwriter or lead managing Underwriter in an
Underwritten Offering initiated by Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant
to Section 2(a). The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way
conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders
of Wyndham's other issued and outstanding securities under any such
agreements.

                  (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this
Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,
modified or supple mented, and waivers or consents to departures from the
provisions hereof may not be given unless Wyndham has obtained the written
consent of a majority of the Holders and, if any such amendment, modification,
supplement, waiver or consent would adversely affect the rights of any Holder
hereunder, the written consent of each Holder which is affected shall be
obtained; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit any amendment,
modification, supplement, waiver or consent the effect of which is limited
only to those Holders who have agreed to such amendment, modification,
supplement, waiver or consent.

                  (c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided
for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, telex,
telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (i) if to a Holder,
at the most current address given by such Holder to Wyndham by means of a
notice given in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (c), which
address initially is, with respect to each Holder as of the date hereof, the
address set forth next to such Holder's name on the signature pages hereof
with a copy to Randall H. Doud, Esq., telecopier number (212) 735-2000, and
with respect to each Holder who becomes such after the date hereof, the
address of such Holder in the stock records of Wyndham, (ii) if to Wyndham, at
1950 Stemmons Freeway, Suite 6001, Dallas, Texas 75207, telecopier number
(214) 863-1527, Attention: General Counsel, with a copy to Gilbert G. Menna,
P.C., telecopier number (617) 523-1231, and thereafter at such other address,
notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph.



                                      23

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Wyndham shall not be obligated to provide any
notice to any Holder which is not an Initial Holder except with respect to a
Required or Incidental Registration Statement which has been filed and
pursuant to which such Holder is identified as a selling stockholder.

                  All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have
been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; when
answered back, if telexed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on
the next business day if timely delivered to a courier guaranteeing overnight
delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6(c) is

each of the parties, including, without the need for an express assignment,
subsequent Holders. If any successor, assignee or transferee of any Holder
shall acquire Registrable Securities in any manner, whether by operation of
law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be held subject to all of
the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable
Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound
by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and to
receive the benefits hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this
Section 6(d) is intended to enlarge the class of Persons which are Holders, as
defined in the preamble of this Agreement, and thus entitled to the rights
granted hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, "successor" for any entity
other than a natural person shall mean a successor to such entity as a result
of such entity's merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, sale of
substantially all of its assets, or similar transaction.

                  (e) Recapitalizations, Exchanges, Etc., Affecting
Registrable Securities. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply, to the
full extent set forth herein with respect to the Registrable Securities, to
any and all securities or capital stock of Wyndham or any successor or assign
of Wyndham (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets or otherwise)
which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for, or in substitution of such
Registrable Securities, by reason of any dividend, split, issuance, reverse
split, combination, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation
or otherwise. Upon the occurrence of any of such events, Preferred Stock and
Common Stock amounts hereunder shall be appropriately adjusted if necessary.

                  (f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be
deemed to be an original, but all of which counterparts, taken together, shall
constitute one and the same instrument.

                  (g) Descriptive Headings, Etc. The headings in this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or
otherwise affect the meaning of terms contained herein. Unless the context of
this Agreement otherwise requires: (1) words of any gender shall be deemed to
include each other gender; (2) words using the singular or plural number shall
also include the plural or singular number, respectively; (3) the words
"hereof", "herein" and "hereunder" and words of similar import when used in
this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any
particular provision of this Agreement, and Article, Section, paragraph and
clause references are to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs and clauses to
this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (4) the word "including" and words
of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean "including, without
limitation," unless otherwise specified; (5) "or" is not exclusive; and (6)
provisions apply to successive events and transactions.

                  (h) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the
provisions, paragraphs, words, clauses, phrases or sentences contained
herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality
and enforceability of any such provision, paragraph, word, clause, phrase or

                           ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION

                  THIS ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION (this "Assignment") is made
as of this __ day of June, 1999, by and among (i) Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund

and among the Companies and the Original Investors (the "Securities Purchase

meanings ascribed to such terms in the Securi ties Purchase Agreement.

                             W I T N E S S E T H:

                  WHEREAS, in accordance with Sections 1.1(b) and 11.3 of the
Securities Purchase Agreement, the Original Investors have the right to assign
their rights and obligations to purchase some or all of the Shares with the
Companies' consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to other
persons, provided that no more than 25% in interest in the aggregate in the
rights and obligations to purchase Shares may be assigned to persons other
than Permitted Assignees;

                  WHEREAS, the Assignor desires to assign to the Assignee its
right and obligation to purchase 250,000 Shares (the "Subject Shares") and the
Assignee desires to accept such assignment and assume such obligation.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of
which is hereby acknowledged:

                  1.       Assignment and Assumption.

                   (a) The Assignor hereby assigns its right and obligation to
purchase the Subject Shares under the Securities Purchase Agreement to the
Assignee.

<PAGE>



                  (b) The Assignee, for the benefit of the Companies, each of
the Original Investors and any other persons who become Investors under the
Securities Purchase Agreement, hereby accepts the assignment of the Assignor's
right, and assumes its obligation, to purchase the Subject Shares under the
Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees to pay at the Closing all amounts due
under the Securities Purchase Agreement in respect of the Subject Shares. The
Assignee, for the benefit of the Companies, each of the Original Investors and
any other persons who become Investors under the Securities Purchase
Agreement, hereby makes the representations and warranties contained in
Article IV of the Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees to perform and
discharge all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions, conditions and
other obligations to be performed by an Investor under the Securities Purchase
Agreement as if the Assignee were an Investor originally named in the
Securities Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Assignee
agrees that it will not have any rights under Section 6.12 of the Securities

Securities Purchase Agreement that (i) the Assignee has received copies of the
Securities Purchase Agreement and in making its determination to purchase the
Subject Shares and undertake the obligations of an Investor under the
Securities Purchase Agreement has relied solely on the representations and
warranties, covenants and other agreements of the Companies contained therein
and not on any representations, warranties or undertakings by the Assignor or
any of the other Original Investors, (ii) the Assignee currently has, or prior
to the Closing will have, sufficient funds to purchase the Subject Shares as
contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, and (iii) the Assignee's
purchase of the Subject Shares will qualify as a passive investment by the
Assignee for purposes of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of
1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and accordingly the Assignee is not required
to make any filings under the HSR Act to purchase the Subject Shares.

                  (d) The Assignee agrees, for the benefit of each of the
Original Investors and any other persons who become Investors under the
Securities Purchase Agreement, (i) to fulfill its obligations under the
Securities Purchase Agreement assumed hereunder, including without limitation
those contained in Article VII, (ii) not to assign without the prior written
consent of the Original Investors any of its rights or obligations under this

Original Investors and any other persons who become Investors under the
Securities Purchase Agreement, to pay the purchase price for the Subject

L.P. acting as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"), pending the Closing. The
Escrow Agent shall be permitted to invest the Escrow Amount in the Chase Vista
Premiere U.S. Government Money Fund or similar investments until the Escrow

1999, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Assignee the amount of the Escrow
Amount which it deposited with the Escrow Agent. Any interest or other income
received on the on the Escrow Amount shall be distributed to the Assignee in

own gross negligence or willful misconduct and, except with respect to claims
based upon such gross negligence or willful misconduct that are successfully
asserted against the Escrow Agent, and the Assignee hereto shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Escrow Agent and its officers, directors, employees and
agents from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, actions,
damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements,
arising out of and in connection with its acting as escrow agent under this
Assignment. Without limiting the foregoing, the Escrow Agent shall in no event
be liable in connection with its investment or reinvestment of any cash held
by it hereunder in good faith, in accordance with the terms hereof, including
without limitation any liability for any delays (not resulting from its gross
negligence or willful misconduct) in the investment or reinvestment of the
Escrow Amount or any loss of interest incident to any such delays.

                  (iii) The Assignee shall pay or reimburse the Escrow Agent
upon request for any taxes relating to income derived from the Escrow Amount
and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent from any amounts that
it is obligated to pay in the way of such taxes. Any payments of income from
this Escrow Account shall be subject to withholding regulations then in force

                  (f) The Assignee agrees that Thomas H. Lee Equity Fund IV,
L.P. and Apollo Management IV, L.P. (collectively, the "Lead Investors") shall
have the sole authority to administer and make determinations as to matters
arising under the Securities Purchase Agreement and related documentation and
that any


                                      3
<PAGE>

determination made by the Lead Investors under the Securities Purchase
Agreement and any related documentation shall be binding upon the Assignee as
if the Assignee had consented thereto, including without limitation any
determination as to whether closing conditions have been satisfied or waived,
any amendments or waivers of provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement
and any determination or exercise of remedies by the Investors under the
Securities Purchase Agreement.

                  (g) The Companies acknowledge their consent to the
assignment and assumption effected hereby and agree that (i) the Assignor
shall no longer be obligated to purchase the Subject Shares under the
Securities Purchase Agreement and (ii) the Assignee shall be entitled to rely
on the Companies' representations and warranties, covenants and other
agreements under the Securities Purchase Agreement as if the Assignee were an
Investor originally named in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

                  (h) The Original Investors other than the Assignor hereby
consent to this Assignment and Assumption and acknowledge that the assignment
contemplated hereby will limit their collective right to make assignments
under the Securities Purchase Agreement.

                  (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Assignee agrees that, upon its payment for the Subject Shares in accordance
with the terms of this Assignment and Assumption and the Securities Purchase
Agreement, it shall only be entitled to receive the Subject Shares from the
Companies and shall not, under any circumstances, be entitled to receive any
fees or expenses pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement or otherwise
from the Companies, the Original Investors or any other persons that may
become Investors under the Securities Purchase Agreement, except that the
Assignee will be entitled to receive and the Companies hereby agree to pay an
equity transaction funding fee of $262,500 at the time the Subject Shares are
purchased by the Assignee. The Companies acknowledge that this Assignment and
Assumption shall in no way affect the Companies' obligation to pay the fees
payable under the Securities Purchase Agreement to the Original Investors as
if the Original Investors had not assigned any portion of the right and
obligation to acquire the Shares.

                   2. Acknowledgment as to Advisors. (a) The Assignee
acknowledges that Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP is representing the
