     The Notes offered hereby (the "Offering") are convertible into Common Stock
of Prime Hospitality Corp. ("Prime" or the "Company") at any time prior to
maturity, unless previously redeemed, at a conversion price of $     per share,
subject to adjustment in certain events. See "Description of Notes --Conversion
Rights" for a description of events which may cause an adjustment to the
conversion price. The Common Stock of the Company is traded on the New York
Stock Exchange under the symbol "PDQ." On April 17, 1995, the last reported sale
price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $10 per share. See
"Price Range of Common Stock and Dividend Policy."
    
 
     Interest on the Notes is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year,
commencing October 15, 1995. The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at
the option of the Company at any time on or after April 17, 1998, at the
redemption prices set forth herein, plus accrued interest, if any, to the
redemption date. If a Risk Event (as defined herein) occurs, each holder of
Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions and restrictions, to
require the Company to offer to repurchase all outstanding Notes, in whole or in
part, owned by such holder at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued
interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. The Notes are subordinated to all
existing and future Senior Indebtedness (as defined herein) of the Company and
will be effectively subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of
the Company's subsidiaries. At December 31, 1994, the Company had approximately
$131.2 million of outstanding Senior Indebtedness, and the subsidiaries of the
Company had approximately $52.6 million of outstanding indebtedness. The
Indenture governing the Notes does not restrict the ability of the Company or
its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including Senior
Indebtedness. See "Description of Notes" for a more complete discussion of the
Indenture's provisions.
 
     The Notes have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange,
subject to notice of issuance.

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
     The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the more
detailed information and Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes
thereto, appearing elsewhere in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.
Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, references in this
Prospectus to the "Company" or "Prime" are to Prime Hospitality Corp. and its
subsidiaries. Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Prospectus
assumes that the Underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised. See
"Underwriting."
 
                                  THE COMPANY
 
     Prime is a leading hotel owner/operator with a portfolio of 87 hotels
totalling 12,743 rooms. Located primarily in secondary markets in 19 states and
the U.S. Virgin Islands, Prime's hotels operate either under franchise
agreements with hotel brands such as Marriott, Radisson, Sheraton, Holiday Inn,
Ramada and Howard Johnson, or under the Company's proprietary brand names,
AmeriSuites(R) and Wellesley Inns(R). The Company owns or leases 50 hotels (the
"Owned Hotels") and manages 37 hotels for third parties (the "Managed Hotels").
Prime holds financial interests in the form of mortgages on or profit
participations in 17 of the Managed Hotels. In total, the Company has equity or
financial interests in 67 hotels containing approximately 10,000 rooms.
 
     The Company operates in three major lodging industry segments:
full-service, all-suites and limited-service. Approximately 53% of Prime's hotel
rooms are in full-service hotels. The AmeriSuites hotels, which comprise
approximately 12% of the Company's hotel rooms, are mid-priced, all-suites
hotels, situated near office parks and travel destinations in the Southern and
Central United States. Prime also competes in the limited-service segment, which
comprises approximately 35% of its hotel rooms, primarily through its
economically priced Wellesley Inns, which are located in Florida, the Middle
Atlantic and the Northeast.
 
     Prime is fundamentally committed to hotel equity ownership. Significant
elements of Prime's ownership strategy are strong in-house hotel management and
control of its proprietary brands, both of which have contributed to improved
hotel operating performance. Reflecting Prime's operating strengths, the
Company's hotels generated average operating profit margins that exceeded
comparable industry averages for 1993, as reported by industry sources, by
approximately 25% for full-service hotels, 21% for all-suites hotels and 6% for
limited-service hotels.
 
     The Company's growth strategy is to:
 
     - generate improved results at existing hotels through increased operating
       efficiencies;
 
     - acquire full-service hotels with potential for operating and marketing
       improvements; and
 
     - expand the AmeriSuites hotel brand to meet growing all-suites segment
       demand.
 
   
     The Company's strategy for improving results at its existing hotels
includes using sophisticated operating, marketing and financial systems and
capitalizing on the operating leverage inherent in the lodging industry.
Implementation of the Company's strategy, together with positive industry
trends, has produced improved performance in recent years. Exemplifying the
Company's operating leverage, during 1994 revenue per available room ("REVPAR")
increased 7.4% while net operating income increased 17.0%, as compared to the
prior year, for Company-owned comparable hotels, which are hotels that have been
open for all of 1993 and 1994. The Company expects further improvement for the
lodging sector and to continue to improve the performance of its existing
hotels.
    
 
     The Company seeks to capitalize on its strength as a full-service hotel
owner/operator and the favorable outlook for the full-service segment by
continuing to pursue the acquisition of full-service hotels. In 1994 the Company
acquired four full-service hotels with approximately 1,000 rooms. With a
continued industry outlook for limited new room supply, steady demand growth and
acquisition prices at discounts to replacement cost in the full-service segment,
Prime believes that the acquisition of full-service hotels will continue to
provide significant growth opportunities.
 
                                        4
<PAGE>   7
 
     Prime is also committed to developing its AmeriSuites all-suites hotel
brand. The Company believes that AmeriSuites provides an excellent guest
experience and offers desirable suite accommodations and other amenities at
mid-scale prices. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company acquired the
option of ShoLodge, Inc. to purchase a 50% interest in 11 of the Company's 12
AmeriSuites hotels, acquired the only AmeriSuites hotel not already owned by
Prime and assumed management of all 12 of these AmeriSuites hotels
(collectively, the "ShoLodge Transaction"), thereby establishing Prime's
exclusive control over the AmeriSuites brand. Prior to completion of the
ShoLodge Transaction, the Company had managed only one of the 13 AmeriSuites
hotels and the other 12 hotels were managed by ShoLodge, Inc. In 1994 the
Company opened four new AmeriSuites. The Company currently plans to open or
commence construction of ten new AmeriSuites with approximately 1,250 rooms in
1995. The Company already owns six development sites for new AmeriSuites hotels
and has begun construction at sites in Atlanta, Greensboro and Miami.
 
   
     As a leading owner/operator of hotels, Prime believes that it is well
positioned to benefit from the continuing recovery occurring in the lodging
industry. The recovery has been driven by a favorable supply/demand imbalance
resulting primarily from increased economic activity and the sharp decline in
the growth of the supply of new hotel rooms since 1991. Demand growth exceeded
new supply growth by 3.0% in 1993 and by 3.3% in 1994, as reported by Smith
Travel Research. Since 1991, demand growth has outpaced new room supply growth,
resulting in an increase in industry-wide occupancy levels from 60.9% in 1991 to
65.2% in 1994. Higher occupancy levels have allowed the industry to increase
rates. In 1994 average daily rates ("ADR") increased by 3.8% over 1993 levels,
marking the first inflation-adjusted ADR growth since 1986. REVPAR, which
measures the combined impact of rate and occupancy, increased by 7.3% in 1994.
Because of the operating leverage inherent in the lodging industry, increases in
REVPAR have had a major impact on hotel operating performance, with industry
pretax profits growing from breakeven levels in 1992 to approximately $4.6
billion in 1994, as estimated by Smith Travel Research.
    
 
   
     The Company is the successor in interest to Prime Motor Inns, Inc. and
certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, "PMI"). PMI restructured its
operations and capital structure pursuant to a bankruptcy reorganization
completed on July 31, 1992 (the "Effective Date"). Under its restructuring, PMI
recruited new management and directors, reduced its liabilities by $448.8
million, revalued its assets to reflect fair market value, and eliminated
unprofitable contract commitments. During the period from July 31, 1992 through
December 31, 1994, the Company further reduced its debt by $82.6 million from
$266.4 million to $183.8 million, and reduced its portfolio of notes receivable
through cash collections and collateral recoveries by $143.4 million from $226.6
million to $83.2 million. In the process, the Company increased its investment
in hotel fixed assets by $138.9 million from $160.4 million to $299.3 million,
and increased stockholders' equity by $68.5 million from $135.6 million to
$204.1 million. With a strengthened balance sheet, a diminished note receivable
portfolio and a significantly increased base of Owned Hotels, the Company
believes that it is well positioned to implement its growth strategy.
    
 
     The Company is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1985. The business of
the Company is conducted through its subsidiaries and by the Company directly.
The principal office of the Company is 700 Route 46 East, Fairfield, New Jersey
07004 and its telephone number is (201) 882-1010.

                                conversion price of $     per share, subject to adjustment in
                                certain events.
Redemption at Option of
  Company.....................  The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option
                                of the Company, at any time on or after April 17, 1998, at
                                the redemption prices (expressed as percentage of principal
                                amount) set forth below for the 12-month period beginning
                                April 15 (or April 17, in the case of 1998) of the years
                                indicated:
 
                                1998......................................................  %
                                1999.........................................................
                                2000.........................................................
                                2001.........................................................
 
                                and at maturity at 100% of principal, together in the case of
                                any such redemption with accrued interest to the redemption
                                date.
Repurchase at Option of
  Holders.....................  If a Risk Event (as defined herein) occurs, each holder of
                                the Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions
                                and restrictions, to require the Company to offer to
                                repurchase all outstanding Notes, in whole or in part, owned
                                by such holder at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued
                                interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. If a Risk Event
                                were to occur, no assurance can be given that the Company
                                would have sufficient funds to pay the repurchase price for
                                all Notes tendered by the holders thereof. The Company's
                                ability to make such payments may be limited by its leverage
                                and the terms of its then-existing borrowing and other
                                agreements. See "Description of Notes -- Repurchase at Option
                                of Holders Upon a Risk Event" for a more complete discussion
                                of the rights of holders of Notes upon the occurrence of a
                                Risk Event.
Subordination.................  The Notes are subordinated to all existing and future Senior
                                Indebtedness (as defined herein) of the Company, and will be
                                effectively subordinated to all indebtedness and other
                                liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries. At December 31,
                                1994, the Company had approximately $131.2 million of
                                outstanding Senior Indebtedness, and the subsidiaries of the
                                Company had approximately $52.6 million of outstanding
                                indebtedness. The Notes are not guaranteed by any of the
                                Company's subsidiaries. The Indenture governing the Notes
                                does not restrict the ability of the Company or its
                                subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including
                                Senior Indebtedness.
Use of Proceeds...............  The proceeds of the Offering will be used to finance the
                                development or acquisition of hotels or hotel portfolios and
                                for general corporate purposes including the possible
                                repayment of outstanding indebtedness. See "Use of Proceeds."
Listing.......................  The Notes have been approved for listing on the New York
                                Stock Exchange, subject to notice of issuance. The Common
                                Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the
                                symbol "PDQ."

(1) Extraordinary items consist of gains on discharges of indebtedness, net of
    income taxes of $2.8 million in 1993 and $120,000 in 1994.
(2) Net income per common share has been restated for all periods to reflect a
    9.4% retroactive reduction in the number of shares distributed under PMI's
    plan of reorganization from 33.0 million to 29.9 million. This reduction was
    effected in September 1994.
(3) EBITDA represents earnings before extraordinary items, interest expense,
    provision for income taxes (if applicable) and depreciation and amortization
    and excludes interest income on cash investments and other income. EBITDA is
    used by the Company for the purpose of analyzing its operating performance,
    leverage and liquidity. Such data are not a measure of financial performance
    under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered
    as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating
    performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
(4) Earnings used in computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges consist of
    income before income taxes, fixed charges and extraordinary items. Fixed
    charges consist of interest expense, including amounts capitalized and the
    amortization of deferred financing fees, and that portion of rental expense
    representative of interest (deemed to be one third of rental expense).
(5) As adjusted to reflect the Offering and the incurrence of $42.6 million of
    mortgage debt during the first quarter of 1995. See "Use of Proceeds" and
    "Capitalization."

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
     Prospective purchasers of Notes should carefully consider, among other
things, the following risk factors before purchasing the Notes offered hereby.
 
LEVERAGE
 
     As of December 31, 1994, as adjusted for the issuance of the Notes and the
incurrence of $42.6 million of mortgage debt during the first quarter of 1995,
the Company's total long-term debt (including current installments) and
shareholders' equity would have been $301.4 million and $204.1 million,
respectively. The Company expects it will incur indebtedness in addition to the
Notes in connection with the implementation of its growth strategy. The
Indenture governing the Notes does not restrict the ability of the Company or
its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including Senior
Indebtedness. Additional indebtedness of the Company may rank senior or pari
passu with the Notes in certain circumstances, while additional indebtedness of
the Company's subsidiaries will rank effectively senior to the Notes. See
"Description of Notes." The Company's ability to satisfy its obligations will be
dependent upon its future performance, which is subject to prevailing economic
conditions and financial, business and other factors, including factors beyond
the Company's control. There can be no assurance that the Company's operating
cash flow will be sufficient to meet its debt service requirements or to repay
the Notes at maturity or that the Company will be able to refinance the Notes or
other indebtedness at maturity. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources." In addition, the Indenture provides that if a Risk Event occurs,
each holder of the Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions and
restrictions, to require the Company to offer to repurchase all outstanding
Notes, in whole or in part, owned by such holder at 100% of their principal
amount plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. If a Risk Event
were to occur, no assurance can be given that the Company would have sufficient
funds to pay the repurchase price for all Notes tendered by the holders thereof.
The Company's ability to make such payments may be limited by its leverage and
the terms of its then-existing borrowing and other agreements. See "Description
of Notes -- Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Risk Event."
 
SUBORDINATION
 
     The Notes will be unsecured subordinated obligations of the Company and
will be subordinated in right of payment to all present and future Senior
Indebtedness of the Company and will be effectively subordinated to all
indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries. In the event
of bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, the assets of the
Company will be available to pay obligations on the Notes only after all Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full, and there may not be sufficient assets
remaining to pay amounts due on any or all of the Notes then outstanding. The
holders of any indebtedness of the Company's subsidiaries will be entitled to
payment of their indebtedness from the assets of the subsidiaries prior to the
holders of any general unsecured obligations of the Company, including the
Notes. At December 31, 1994, the Company had approximately $131.2 million of
outstanding Senior Indebtedness, and the subsidiaries of the Company had
approximately $52.6 million of outstanding indebtedness. Of the $42.6 million of
indebtedness incurred during the first quarter of 1995, $27.0 million is Senior
Indebtedness of the Company and $15.6 million is indebtedness of subsidiaries.
In the event of a payment default with respect to Senior Indebtedness, no
payments may be made on account of the Notes until such default has been cured
or waived. In addition, under certain circumstances, no payments with respect to
the Notes may be made for a period of up to 179 days if certain non-payment
defaults exist with respect to Senior Indebtedness of the Company. See
"Description of Notes." See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
RISKS OF THE LODGING INDUSTRY; COMPETITION
 
     The Company's business is subject to all of the risks inherent in the
lodging industry. These risks include, among other things, adverse effects of
general and local economic conditions, changes in local market conditions,
oversupply of hotel space, a reduction in local demand for hotel rooms, changes
in travel patterns, changes in governmental regulations that influence or
determine wages, prices or construction costs, changes
 
                                       10
<PAGE>   13
 
in interest rates, the availability of credit and changes in real estate taxes
and other operating expenses. The Company's ownership of real property,
including hotels, is substantial. Real estate values are sensitive to changes in
local market and economic conditions and to fluctuations in the economy as a
whole. Due in part to the strong correlation between the lodging industry's
performance and economic conditions, the lodging industry is subject to cyclical
changes in revenues and profits.
 
     The lodging industry is highly competitive. During the 1980s, construction
of lodging facilities in the United States resulted in an excess supply of
available rooms. This oversupply had an adverse effect on occupancy levels and
room rates in the industry, although the oversupply has largely been absorbed.
Competitive factors in the industry include reasonableness of room rates,
quality of accommodations, brand recognition, service levels and convenience of
locations. The Company's hotels generally operate in areas that contain numerous
other competitors. There can be no assurance that demographic, geographic or
other changes in markets will not adversely affect the convenience or
desirability of the locales in which the Company's hotels are located.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that, in the locales in which the
Company's hotels operate, competing hotels will not pose greater competition for
guests than presently exists, or that new hotels will not enter such locales.
See "Business -- Lodging Industry."
 
HOTEL DEVELOPMENT AND ACQUISITION RISKS
 
     The Company's growth strategy of developing new hotels and acquiring hotels
with repositioning potential will subject the Company to pre-opening,
pre-stabilization and repositioning costs. As the Company opens additional
Company-owned hotels, such costs may adversely affect the Company's results of
operations. Newly opened hotels historically begin with lower occupancy and room
rates that improve over time. While the Company has in the past successfully
opened or repositioned new hotels, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to achieve its growth strategy. Construction, acquisition and
repositioning of hotels involves certain risks, including the possibility of
construction cost overruns and delays, site acquisition cost and availability,
uncertainties as to market potential, market deterioration after commencement of
the acquisition or repositioning, possible unavailability of financing on
favorable terms and the emergence of market competition from unanticipated
sources. Although the Company seeks to manage its construction, acquisition and
repositioning activities so as to minimize such risks, there can be no assurance
that such projects will perform in accordance with the Company's expectations.
 
AMERISUITES EXPANSION
 
     As part of its growth strategy, the Company intends to expand its
AmeriSuites hotel brand to meet growing demand in the all-suites hotel segment.
On March 31, 1995, in connection with the ShoLodge Transaction, the Company
assumed management of the AmeriSuites hotel brand. Prior to completion of the
ShoLodge Transaction, the Company had operated only one of the 13 AmeriSuites
hotels. In addition to the risks associated with hotel development generally,
the Company is subject to additional risks in the all-suites hotel segment due
to its limited operating history in this segment. Also, the Company competes
with other companies in the all-suites segment, some of whom have greater brand
recognition, financial resources and experience than the Company. There is no
assurance that the Company can compete effectively with these other franchises.
 
GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION OF HOTELS
 
     Many of the Company's hotels are located in Florida, New Jersey and New
York, and such geographic concentration exposes the Company's operating results
to events or conditions which specifically affect those areas, such as local and
regional economic, weather and other conditions. Adverse developments which
specifically affect those areas may have a material adverse effect on the
results of operations of the Company.
 
     In addition, the Company owns the Marriott's Frenchman's Reef Beach Resort
(the "Frenchman's Reef") in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. The Company
obtained ownership and control of this hotel in December 1994 pursuant to the
restructuring of a note receivable. The Frenchman's Reef accounted for
 
                                       11
<PAGE>   14
 
$5.7 million of the Company's operating income in 1994. The Frenchman's Reef's
operating results have been adversely affected in recent years by a hurricane,
disruption in airline service and the Persian Gulf War. As a resort hotel
primarily operated for leisure travellers, operating results at the Frenchman's
Reef also are subject to adverse developments in general economic conditions and
changes in travel patterns. Adverse developments with respect to the Frenchman's
Reef may have a material adverse effect on the results of operations of the
Company.
 
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ROSE AND COHEN SETTLEMENT
 
     In April 1994, the Company received a favorable ruling from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida in litigation with
Financial Security Assurance, Inc. ("FSA") with respect to FSA's attempt to
recover a payment made to the Company pursuant to a settlement agreement with
Allan V. Rose ("Rose") and Arthur G. Cohen ("Cohen"). In 1993, the Company
reached a settlement with Rose and Cohen of an adversary proceeding regarding a
promissory note and personal guarantee. FSA asserted in the Bankruptcy Court
proceeding that it was entitled to receive the settlement proceeds otherwise
payable to the Company (approximately $31.2 million) under the terms of an
intercreditor agreement. The Bankruptcy Court ruled in favor of the Company in
April 1994 and, immediately thereafter, the Company used $25.0 million of the
settlement proceeds to retire its remaining Senior Secured Notes due July 31,
1997. On April 21, 1994, FSA filed a notice of appeal of the Bankruptcy Court's
order. The appeal has been argued before the United States District Court for
the Southern District of Florida and a decision of the District Court is
pending. The Company is retaining the remaining $6.2 million of settlement
proceeds as restricted cash pending disposition of the appeal. If the favorable
decision of the Bankruptcy Court were reversed by the District Court or on
further appeal by FSA, the Company could be required to pay over the $31.2
million in settlement proceeds to FSA, which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company. The Company anticipates that it would finance the
potential award of settlement proceeds to FSA through existing cash balances,
mortgage financings on unencumbered properties or conversions of mortgages and
notes receivable to cash. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations --Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
EMPLOYMENT AND OTHER GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
     The lodging industry is subject to numerous federal, state and local
government regulations, including those relating to the preparation and sale of
food and beverage (such as health and liquor license laws) and building and
zoning requirements. Also, the Company is subject to laws governing its
relationship with employees, including minimum wage requirements, overtime,
working conditions and work permits requirements. The failure to obtain or
retain liquor licenses or an increase in the minimum wage rate, employee benefit
costs or other costs associated with employees, could adversely affect the
Company. Both at the federal and state level, there are proposals under
consideration to increase the minimum wage and introduce a system of mandated
health insurance. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"),
all public accommodations are required to meet certain federal requirements
related to access and use by disabled persons. While the Company believes its
hotels are substantially in compliance with these requirements, a determination
that the Company is not in compliance with the ADA could result in the
imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. These and other
initiatives could adversely affect the Company as well as the lodging industry
in general.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
 
     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 often impose liability whether or not
the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such
hazardous or toxic substances. Certain environmental laws and common law
principles could be used to impose liability for release of asbestos-containing
materials ("ACMs") into the air, 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
 
                                       12
<PAGE>   15
 
impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses
may be operated, and these restrictions may require expenditures. In connection
with the ownership or operation of hotels, the Company may be potentially liable
for any such costs. 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 or
against the Company and its managed hotels. The cost of defending against claims
of liability or of remediating a contaminated property could have a material
adverse effect on the results of operations of the Company.
 
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
 
     The Company currently manages 37 hotels under agreements with third party
hotel owners, including 16 Wellesley Inns for which the Company provides the
brand name. Terms of the management agreements vary but the majority are
short-term and, therefore, there are risks associated with termination of these
agreements. Furthermore, management agreements may be terminated in connection
with a change in ownership of the underlying hotels. Although such risks may be
limited due to the Company's role as lender or provider of the Wellesley Inn
brand name, 18 of the Managed Hotels, including the 16 Wellesley Inns referenced
above, are highly leveraged with debt maturing in December 1995. There can be no
assurance that such debt can be repaid or restructured by the third party hotel
owners in a manner that would permit the Company to continue as manager of such
properties.
 
IMPORTANCE OF FRANCHISOR RELATIONSHIPS
 
     The Company currently enjoys good relationships with its major franchisors,
Marriott, Radisson, Sheraton, Holiday Inn, Ramada and Howard Johnson, and the
Company has no reason to believe that such relationships will not continue.
However, under the applicable franchise agreements, the franchisor can terminate
the agreement if its quality standards are not maintained or if payments due are
not made in a timely fashion. If any of the franchise agreements were terminated
by the franchisor, the Company could explore entering into a franchise agreement
with another franchisor. There can be no assurance, however, that a desirable
replacement relationship would be available.
 
DEPENDENCE ON KEY EMPLOYEES
 
     The Company is dependent on its President, Chief Executive Officer and
Chairman of the Board, David A. Simon, its Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer, John M. Elwood, its Executive Vice President of Operations,
Paul H. Hower, and on certain other key members of its executive management
staff, the loss of whose services could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business and future operations. See "Management."
 
ABSENCE OF PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE NOTES
 
     The Notes are a new issue of securities for which there is currently no
public market. Although the Notes have been approved for listing on the New York
Stock Exchange, subject to notice of issuance, there can be no assurance as to
the liquidity of the market for the Notes that may develop, the ability of the
holders to sell their Notes or the prices at which holders of the Notes would be
able to sell their Notes. If a market for the Notes does develop, the Notes may
trade at a discount from their initial public offering price, depending on
prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, performance of the
Company, the market price of the Company's Common Stock, performance of the
lodging sector and other factors. No assurance can be given as to whether an
active trading market will develop or be maintained for the Notes. See
"Underwriting."

<PAGE>   16
 
                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
     The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes offered hereby are estimated to
be approximately $72.2 million (approximately $83.1 million if the Underwriters'
over-allotment option is exercised in full) after deducting the underwriting
discount and estimated expenses related to the Offering. The Company intends to
use the net proceeds to finance the development or acquisition of hotels or
hotel portfolios and for general corporate purposes. The Company is engaged in
an ongoing program of evaluating and acquiring hotels and hotel portfolios in
selected markets in the United States. However, the Company has no agreement,
understanding or arrangement with any person to effect any material acquisition.
Until used, the net proceeds of this Offering will be invested in short-term
investment grade marketable securities or money market funds or used to repay
mortgage debt on existing hotels that the Company expects would be available, as
a result of such repayment, to support additional indebtedness. The mortgage
debt considered for repayment consists of debt with an outstanding balance of
$43.5 million at March 31, 1995 which bears interest at 10.25% and matures in
April 1997.

(1) Extraordinary items consist of gains on discharges of indebtedness, net of
    income taxes of $2.8 million in 1993 and $120,000 in 1994.
 
(2) Net income per common share has been restated for all periods to reflect a
    9.4% retroactive reduction in the number of shares distributed under PMI's
    plan of reorganization from 33.0 million to 29.9 million. This reduction was
    effected in September 1994.
 
(3) EBITDA represents earnings before extraordinary items, interest expense,
    provision for income taxes (if applicable) and depreciation and amortization
    and excludes interest income on cash investments and other income. EBITDA is
    used by the Company for the purpose of analyzing its operating performance,
    leverage and liquidity. Such data are not a measure of financial performance
    under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered
    as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating
    performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
 
(4) Earnings used in computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges consist of
    income before income taxes, fixed charges and extraordinary items. Fixed
    charges consist of interest expense, including amounts capitalized and the
    amortization of deferred financing fees, and that portion of rental expense
    representative of interest (deemed to be one third of rental expense).

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
GENERAL
 
     The Company is a leading hotel owner/operator which owns or leases 50 Owned
Hotels and manages 37 Managed Hotels for third parties. The Company has a
financial interest in the form of mortgages or profit participations (primarily
incentive management fees) in 17 of the Managed Hotels. The Company consolidates
the results of operations of its Owned Hotels and records management fees
(including incentive management fees) and interest income, where applicable, on
the Managed Hotels.
 
     The Company has implemented a growth strategy which focuses on improving
results at existing hotels through increased operating efficiencies, acquiring
full-service hotels and expanding its AmeriSuites hotel brand in the all-suites
segment. Operating results have continued to improve at comparable hotels due to
repositioning efforts, yield management programs and overall improvements in the
industry. The Company also added 11 Owned Hotels in 1994 through acquisition,
construction or settlements of notes receivable, thereby increasing its Owned
Hotel rooms by approximately 40%. Although future results of operations may be
adversely affected in the short-term by the costs associated with the
acquisition and construction of new hotels, it is expected that this impact will
be offset, after an initial period, by revenues generated by these new hotels.
The Company believes it is well positioned to benefit from the expected
continued improvements in the lodging industry due to its hotel equity ownership
position and its growth strategy.
 
     The Company has restated net income per common share for all periods to
reflect a 9.4% reduction in the number of shares distributed under the plan of
reorganization (the "Plan") of the Company's predecessor, PMI. The financial
statements had previously given effect to the maximum amount of 33,000,000
shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, whereas the Company in total
distributed only 29,913,000 shares under the Plan.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO THE YEAR
ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1993
 
     The following table presents the components of operating income, operating
expense margins and other data for the Company and the Company's comparable
Owned Hotels for 1993 and 1994. The results of the four hotels divested during
1993 and 1994 are not material to an understanding of the results of the
Company's operations in such periods and, therefore, are not separately
discussed.

     Room revenues increased by $19.3 million, or 27.7%, from $69.5 million in
1993 to $88.8 million in 1994. This increase was primarily due to incremental
room revenues of $17.6 million from hotels acquired or built in 1993 and 1994
and an increase in room revenues at comparable Owned Hotels. Room revenues for
comparable Owned Hotels increased by $4.5 million, or 7.2%, in 1994 compared to
1993 due to improvements in ADR. ADR increased by $4.22 or 7.5% for all hotels
and $4.32 or 7.6% for comparable Owned Hotels due to repositioning and
refurbishment efforts at several full-service hotels and the continued
improvements in the lodging industry. In 1994, the industry continued its
recovery, as demand growth continued to outpace new hotel supply growth,
resulting in higher occupancy levels which have allowed the industry to increase
room rates. The Company has pursued a strategy of increasing ADR, which has a
greater impact on net operating income than changes in occupancy. Occupancy
rates for all hotels decreased from 70.4% in 1993 to 68.0% in 1994 due to the
lower occupancy rates normally associated with new hotels, including both newly
constructed hotels and repositioned hotels during the refurbishment period.
Occupancy rates for comparable Owned Hotels remained constant in 1994 compared
to 1993.
    
 
     Food and beverage revenues increased by $5.8 million, or 47.4%, from $12.3
million in 1993 to $18.1 million in 1994. This increase was primarily due to the
impact of incremental revenues of $5.6 million from additional food and beverage
operations of four full-service hotels acquired in 1994. Food and beverage
revenues for comparable Owned Hotels increased by $535,000, or 4.9%, in 1994
compared to 1993 primarily as a result of increased banquet sales and the
repositioning of three lounges to a sports bar theme.

     Management and other fees consist of base and incentive fees earned under
management agreements, fees for additional services rendered to Managed Hotels
and sales commissions earned by the Company's national sales group, Market
Segments, Inc. Management and other fees decreased by $810,000, or 7.5%, from
$10.8 million in 1993 to $10.0 million in 1994 primarily due to the loss of
management fees on four Managed Hotels acquired by the Company during 1994. In
addition, the Company's management contracts covering six additional hotels were
terminated during 1994 upon divestiture of those hotels by the third party hotel
owners. Partially offsetting these decreased management fees were the addition
of two new management contracts and increased revenues associated with the
remaining Managed Hotels.
 
     Interest on mortgages and notes receivable in 1993 and 1994 primarily
related to mortgages secured by certain Managed Hotels including the Frenchman's
Reef. Interest income on mortgages and notes receivable increased by $1.1
million, or 7.5%, from $14.8 million in 1993 to $15.9 million in 1994 primarily
due to interest recognized on the Company's cash flow notes, which are
subordinated or junior mortgages which remit payment based on hotel cash flow.
In accordance with fresh start reporting adopted on the Effective Date, assets
and liabilities were recorded at their then-current fair market values. As these
cash flow notes bear many of the characteristics and risks of operating hotel
equity investments, no value was assigned to these notes on the Company's
balance sheet due to substantial doubt as to their recoverability. The Company's
policy is to recognize interest on cash flow notes when cash is received. In
1994, the portion of interest on mortgages and other notes receivable
attributable to cash flow notes increased to $2.0 million from $1.0 million in
1993 primarily due to the execution of revised cash flow note agreements on
three hotels and the improved operating performance of the underlying hotels.
See "Business -- Mortgages and Notes Receivable."
 
     Approximately $4.3 million and $4.6 million of interest on mortgages and
notes receivable in 1993 and 1994, respectively, was derived from the Company's
$50.0 million note receivable secured by the Frenchman's Reef. This note was
restructured in December 1994 and pursuant to such restructuring, the Company
obtained ownership and control of the Frenchman's Reef (see "-- Liquidity and
Capital Resources"). The impact of this restructuring on operating income is
expected to be minimal, as direct revenues, expenses and depreciation will
increase and interest income and management fees will decrease.
 
     Direct room expenses increased by $5.0 million, or 26.1%, from $19.5
million in 1993 to $24.5 million in 1994 due primarily to the addition of new
hotels. As a percentage of room revenue, direct room expenses decreased from
28.0% in 1993 to 27.6% in 1994 primarily due to increases in ADR which had
minimal corresponding increases in expenses. For comparable Owned Hotels, direct
room expenses increased $411,000, or 2.4%, but decreased as a percentage of
comparable room revenue from 27.1% in 1993 to 25.9% in 1994.
 
     Direct food and beverage expenses increased by $3.7 million, or 35.7%, from
$10.2 million in 1993 to $13.9 million in 1994 due primarily to the addition of
new full-service hotels. As a percentage of food and beverage revenue, direct
food and beverage expenses decreased from 83.4% in 1993 to 76.8% in 1994
primarily due to increased revenues in higher margin areas such as banquet
departments and sports lounges. For comparable Owned Hotels, direct food and
beverage expenses increased $114,000, or 1.3%, but decreased as a percentage of
food and beverage revenue from 83.0% in 1993 to 80.1% in 1994.
 
   
     Direct hotel selling and general expenses consist primarily of hotel
expenses for Owned Hotels which are not specifically allocated to rooms or food
and beverage activities, such as administration, selling and advertising,
utilities, repairs and maintenance. Direct hotel selling and general expenses
increased by $6.3 million, or 30.9%, from $20.4 million in 1993 to $26.7 million
in 1994 due primarily to the addition of 11 new hotels. Of these 11 hotels, four
were managed by the Company in 1993 or during a portion of 1994, while the other
seven had no previous relationship to the Company. As a percentage of hotel
revenues (defined as rooms and food and beverage revenues), direct hotel selling
and general expenses remained relatively constant at 25.0% in 1994 and 1993. For
comparable Owned Hotels, direct selling and general expenses increased $1.1
million, or 6.2%, but decreased slightly as a percentage of comparable Owned
Hotel revenues from 24.3% in 1993 to 24.1% in 1994.
    
 
     Occupancy and other operating expenses which consist primarily of
insurance, real estate and other taxes, and rent expense, increased by $214,000,
or 1.9%, from $11.0 million in 1993 to $11.3 million in 1994. As a percentage of
hotel revenues, occupancy and other operating expenses decreased from 13.5% in
1993 to 10.5%
 
                                       20
<PAGE>   23
 
in 1994 primarily due to operating leverage, lower property and liability
insurance charges based on favorable claims experiences and reductions in real
estate taxes as a result of successful tax appeals on certain properties.
 
     General and administrative expenses consist primarily of centralized
management expenses such as operations management, sales and marketing, finance
and hotel support services associated with operating both the Owned and Managed
Hotels and general corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased by $596,000, or 3.8%, from $15.7 million in 1993 to $15.1 million in
1994 primarily due to savings realized from the restructuring of the Company's
centralized management operations in 1993. As a percentage of total revenues,
general and administrative expenses decreased from 14.4% in 1993 to 11.2% in
1994.
 
     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $2.3 million, or 32.5%,
from $7.1 million in 1993 to $9.4 million in 1994, due to the impact of new
hotel properties acquired in the past year and refurbishment efforts at several
hotels.
 
     Interest expense decreased by $2.1 million, or 13.2%, from $16.1 million in
1993 to $14.0 million in 1994, primarily due to the net reduction of
approximately $27.4 million of debt over the past two years. Interest income on
cash investments increased by approximately $700,000, or 55.2%, from $1.3
million in 1993 to $2.0 million in 1994 due to higher average cash balances in
1994.
 
   
     Other income for 1994 consisted primarily of a gain of approximately $6.2
million related to the settlement of the Rose and Cohen note receivable (see
"-- Liquidity and Capital Resources"), gains on sales of other hotel assets of
approximately $1.0 million and rebates of prior years' insurance premiums of
$1.2 million.
    
 
     Pretax extraordinary gains of approximately $292,000 for 1994 relate to the
retirement of secured notes with a face value of $8.3 million. Pretax
extraordinary gains of approximately $6.8 million in 1993 relate to the
retirement of debt with a face value of $25.8 million.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993 COMPARED TO THE YEAR
ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1992
 
     The Company is the successor in interest to PMI, which emerged from chapter
11 reorganization on the Effective Date. During its approximately two-year
reorganization, PMI restructured its assets, operations and capital structure.
As a result, the Company (i) eliminated numerous unprofitable lease and
management agreements, (ii) revalued its assets to reflect the then approximate
current fair market value of such assets on its financial statements and (iii)
reduced its liabilities by $448.8 million. On the Effective Date, the Company
emerged from chapter 11 reorganization with 75 Owned or Managed Hotels (as
compared to 141 hotels prior to the chapter 11 reorganization), $135.6 million
of total equity and $266.4 million of long-term debt.
 
     The Company implemented "fresh start" reporting in accordance with
Statement of Position 90-7 of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants upon its emergence from reorganization on the Effective Date. Under
"fresh start" reporting, the purchase method of accounting was used and the
assets and liabilities of the Company were restated to reflect their approximate
fair value at the Effective Date. In addition, during the reorganization period
(September 18, 1990 to the Effective Date), the Company's financial statements
were prepared under accounting principles for entities in reorganization which
include reporting interest expense only to the extent paid and recording
transactions and events directly associated with the reorganization proceedings.
Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements of the Company are not
comparable in all material respects to any such financial statement as of any
date or for any period prior to the Effective Date. Subsequent to the Effective
Date, the Company elected to change its fiscal year end from June 30 to December
31.
 
   
     The financial information below should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company included elsewhere in this
Prospectus. Since the Company changed its fiscal year in 1992, management has
compiled unaudited data for the calendar year ended December 31, 1992.

- ---------------
(1) For purposes of this discussion of results of operations for the year ended
    December 31, 1993 compared to the year ended December 31, 1992, Comparable
    Owned Hotels refers to the 29 Owned Hotels that were owned or leased by the
    Company during all of 1993 and 1992.
 
     Room revenue increased by $7.1 million, or 11.4%, from $62.4 million in
1992 to $69.5 million in 1993. This increase was primarily due to incremental
room revenues of $10.9 million from hotels acquired or built during 1993 and
1992 and increased occupancy and ADR at comparable hotels. The increase was
partially offset by a decrease in room revenues of $7.4 million resulting from
the divestiture of four hotels in 1992 and 1993. Room revenues for comparable
Owned Hotels increased by $3.5 million, or 6.8%, in 1993 compared to 1992,
primarily due to an increase in occupancy of 5.9% for 1993, reflecting improved
economic conditions and continued limited new room supply. ADR increased $1.30,
or 2.4%, in 1993.
 
     Food and beverage revenues decreased by $792,000, or 6.1%, from $13.1
million in 1992 to $12.3 million in 1993. The decrease was primarily due to the
loss of food and beverage operations at divested hotels which
 
                                       22
<PAGE>   25
 
was partially offset by an increase in food and beverage revenue at comparable
Owned Hotels of $506,000, or 5.3%, in 1993.
 
     Management and other fees decreased by $621,000, or 5.4%, from $11.5
million in 1992 to $10.8 million in 1993. The decrease was primarily
attributable to the loss of five management contracts due to property
divestitures by independent owners, of which two properties were acquired by the
Company. This decrease was partially offset by increases in management fees
attributable to improved operating results of the Managed Hotels.
 
     Interest on mortgages and notes receivable decreased by $5.3 million, or
26.4%, from $20.1 million in 1992 to $14.8 million in 1993. This decrease was
primarily due to the Company's early collection of a $58.0 million note
receivable in August 1992. The decrease was partially offset by interest income
of $1.0 million recognized on cash flow notes in 1993 due to the improved
performance of the underlying hotels.
 
     Rental and other revenues decreased by $725,000, or 32.5% from $2.2 million
in 1992 to $1.5 million in 1993. The decrease was primarily attributable to the
loss of rental revenues on properties which the Company converted into operating
hotel assets.
 
     Direct room expenses increased by $1.6 million, or 8.9%, from $17.9 million
in 1992 to $19.5 million in 1993. As a percentage of room revenue, direct room
expenses decreased from 28.6% in 1992 to 28.0% in 1993, primarily due to
increases in ADR which had minimal corresponding increases in expenses. Direct
room expenses for comparable Owned Hotels increased by $845,000, or 6.0%, but
decreased as a percentage of room revenue from 27.1% in 1992 to 26.9% in 1993.
 
     Direct food and beverage expenses decreased by $1.2 million, or 10.3%, from
$11.4 million in 1992 to $10.2 million in 1993. As a percentage of food and
beverage revenue, direct food and beverage expenses decreased from 87.3% in 1992
to 83.4% in 1993 which reflected an increase in higher margin beverage sales.
For comparable hotels, direct food and beverage expenses increased by $202,000,
or 2.4%, but decreased as a percentage of food and beverage revenue from 86.7%
in 1992 to 84.3% in 1993.
 
     Direct selling and general expenses decreased by $1.7 million, or 7.6%,
from $22.1 million in 1992 to $20.4 million in 1993. As a percentage of hotel
revenue, direct selling and general expenses decreased from 29.3% in 1992 to
25.0% in 1993, primarily due to the divestiture of four full-service hotels in
1992 and 1993, which generally required increased overhead costs. For comparable
Owned Hotels, direct selling and general expenses decreased as a percentage of
hotel revenue from 26.1% in 1992 to 24.8% in 1993, primarily due to the
restructuring of the Company's centralized operations which eliminated certain
allocated central office charges. These cost savings were offset by higher
utility charges as a result of an unusually warm summer in 1993.
 
     Occupancy and other operating expenses decreased by $2.0 million or 15.3%
from $13.0 million in 1992 to $11.0 million in 1993 primarily due to the
divesture of two properties operated under lease agreements.
 
     General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.5 million, or 8.6%,
from $17.2 million in 1992 to $15.7 million in 1993. As a percentage of total
revenue, general and administrative charges decreased from 15.7% in 1992 to
14.4% in 1993. These decreases were primarily due to the restructuring of the
Company's centralized management operations in February 1993 which eliminated
approximately $2.5 million of annual costs.
 
     Depreciation expense decreased by $107,000 or 1.5% from $7.2 million in
1992 to $7.1 million in 1993. In accordance with fresh start reporting,
property, equipment and leasehold improvements were valued at their fair market
value as of the Effective Date. Prior to the Effective Date, property, equipment
and leasehold improvements were recorded at cost. Accordingly, a meaningful
comparison of depreciation expense cannot be made.
 
     Interest expense increased by $5.0 million or 44.9% from $11.1 million in
1992 to $16.1 million in 1993. Prior to the Effective Date, the Company's
financial statements were prepared under accounting principles for entities in
reorganization which includes reporting interest expense only to the extent
paid. Additionally, the
 
                                       23
<PAGE>   26
 
Company restructured its debt obligations pursuant to the reorganization which
was completed on the Effective Date. Accordingly, a meaningful comparison of
interest expense cannot be made.
 
     Other income in 1993 consisted primarily of a gain on the sale of a hotel
of $1.0 million, settlement of closing adjustments of $625,000 related to the
sale of a hotel in a prior year, interest of $1.2 million received as part of a
federal tax refund and $500,000 received in settlement of prior year's fees on a
Managed Hotel.
 
     Pretax extraordinary gains of $6.8 million in 1993 relate to the repurchase
of debt.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     The Company has financed its operations and capital needs through a
combination of cash flow from operations, conversion of non-operating assets to
cash and proceeds from mortgage financings. The Company believes that its cash
flow from operations is sufficient to fund its anticipated working capital
needs, routine capital expenditures and debt service obligations due through
1995. An important component of the Company's growth strategy is to increase its
equity ownership in hotels, particularly in the full-service and all-suites
segments of the market. The Company intends to actively pursue acquisitions of
full-service hotels or hotel portfolios which may also require additional
capital for the costs of any necessary renovation or refurbishment.
Additionally, the Company plans to expand its AmeriSuites hotel brand by opening
or commencing construction on ten AmeriSuites hotels in 1995. The Company plans
to fund its development and acquisition program in 1995 with the proceeds of the
Offering, mortgage financings of $42.6 million being incurred in the first
quarter of 1995 and additional mortgage financings on its unencumbered
properties, as well as, potentially, on any properties acquired. The Company
believes that these sources will be adequate to fund the implementation of its
growth strategy in 1995.
 
     At December 31, 1994, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $12.5
million and restricted cash of $9.7 million, which was primarily collateral for
various debt obligations. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $29.0 million
during 1994 primarily due to capital expenditures related to the Company's
development plan.
 
     Cash flow from operations was approximately $28.7 million in 1994 as
compared to $19.7 million in 1993. Cash flow from operations was positively
impacted by the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of $5.9
million and $4.5 million for 1994 and 1993, respectively. At December 31, 1994,
the Company had federal NOLs relating to its predecessor, PMI, of approximately
$117.5 million which are subject to annual utilization limitations and expire
beginning in 2005 and continuing through 2007.
 
     The Company's other major sources of cash in 1994 were a settlement of the
Rose and Cohen note receivable for $31.2 million, mortgage financing and other
borrowings of $19.0 million and other collections of mortgages and notes
receivable of $5.0 million. The Company's major uses of cash in 1994 were
payments of debt of $43.8 million, capital expenditures of $63.4 million and
purchases of debt and other securities of $5.9 million.
 
     Debt.  During the first quarter of 1994, the Company purchased at a
discount $7.2 million of its Senior Secured Notes and Junior Secured Notes for
an aggregate purchase price of $7.0 million and retired the debt for a gain of
approximately $200,000. In addition, during the first quarter of 1994, the
Company purchased through a third party agent approximately $5.2 million of its
Senior Secured Notes and Junior Secured Notes for aggregate consideration of
$4.8 million. These notes were held by the third party agent and were not
retired due to certain restrictions under the note agreements. The purchases
were recorded as investments on the Company's balance sheet and gains will not
be recorded on these transactions until the notes mature or are redeemed. In
April 1994, approximately $1.1 million of these notes were retired with a
portion of the proceeds from settlement of the Rose and Cohen note receivable,
resulting in a pretax gain of approximately $100,000.
 
     In April 1994, the Company retired its Senior Secured Notes, due July 31,
1997, with a prepayment of $26.4 million from proceeds of the settlement of the
Rose and Cohen note receivable and other collections from the collateral for the
Senior Secured Notes. The Company issued the Senior Secured Notes on July 31,
1992.

     In July 1994, the Company received the required consents from holders of
its Junior Secured Notes to remove certain debt covenants which placed
limitations on the Company's hotel development spending. In consideration of the
consent to the amendment, the Company agreed to increase the interest rate of
the Junior Secured Notes from 9.2% to 10.0% per annum and to shorten the
maturity from July 31, 2000 to July 31, 1999. In addition, the designation of
the Junior Secured Notes changed to Senior Secured Notes as the original Senior
Secured Notes were retired.
 
     In November 1994, the Company obtained mortgage financing of $10.8 million
on two of its unencumbered properties, the proceeds of which were used for the
Company's acquisition and development program in 1994. These notes bear interest
at 11.2% and mature in 2004.
 
     In February 1995, the Company obtained $39.0 million of mortgage financing
on 11 of its unencumbered hotels under two separate loan agreements. Both loans
bear interest at variable rates (approximately 10.5% at closing) and have
five-year maturities. The funds will be used to finance the Company's
acquisition and development program. The Company incurred an additional $3.6
million of debt in connection with the ShoLodge Transaction. See "-- Capital
Investments."
 
     The Company has $34.9 million of debt obligations related to the
Frenchman's Reef due in December 1996. The Company intends to seek an extension
of the maturity of such debt or refinance it. The debt is secured by the
property which has a book value of $50.0 million.
 
     At December 31, 1994, as adjusted to give effect to the Offering and the
incurrence by the Company of $42.6 million of mortgage debt in the first quarter
of 1995, the Company would have had $301.4 million in debt outstanding. Of this
debt approximately $83.7 million will bear interest at floating rates. The
Company has not entered into interest rate protection agreements with respect to
its floating rate debt, and, accordingly, the interest the Company pays on such
debt will increase or decrease depending on the movement of interest rates
generally.
 
     Capital Investments.  The Company has implemented a hotel development and
acquisition program which focuses on the acquisition of strategically positioned
full-service hotels or hotel portfolios and the development of AmeriSuites
hotels. The Company spent approximately $51.0 million and assumed $18.7 million
of debt in connection with its development and acquisition program in 1994. The
cash portion was funded by a combination of existing cash balances, cash flow
from operations and mortgage financing.
 
     As part of the Company's full-service acquisition program in 1994, the
Company acquired four full-service hotels: the 183-room Ramada Inn in Clifton,
New Jersey, the 280-room Ramada Inn in Trevose, Pennsylvania (which the Company
has since converted to a Radisson hotel), the 340-room Sheraton hotel in
Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, and the 225-room Sheraton hotel in Mahwah, New
Jersey. The Company is continuing to pursue opportunities to acquire
full-service hotels or hotel portfolios to the extent that attractive
acquisition opportunities are available.
 
     During 1994, the Company opened four newly constructed AmeriSuites hotels
in Overland Park, Kansas, Columbus, Ohio, Tampa, Florida, and Louisville,
Kentucky, and two newly constructed Wellesley Inns in Lakeland and Fort
Lauderdale, Florida. The Company has begun developing or has plans to develop
AmeriSuites on sites it currently owns in the Atlanta, Greensboro, Miami,
Baltimore, Detroit and Cleveland areas and has entered into a contract to
purchase an additional AmeriSuites site in the Dallas area. The Company
currently plans to spend approximately $70.0 million to open or commence
construction on 10 new AmeriSuites hotels in 1995 and has already begun
construction at the Atlanta, Greensboro and Miami sites.
 
   
     In February 1995, the Company agreed to purchase an AmeriSuites hotel in
Richmond, Virginia and ShoLodge Inc.'s option to acquire a 50% interest in 11 of
the Company's 12 AmeriSuites hotels. The acquisition closed on March 31, 1995.
The total consideration payable by the Company in the ShoLodge Transaction is
$19.7 million and is comprised of (i) $6.1 million which was paid on March 31,
1995 and $10.0 million which will be paid in two cash installments during 1995
plus (ii) $18.5 million which will be paid in notes maturing in 1997 less (iii)
$14.9 million of existing debt on five hotels which was forgiven at face value.
The transaction results in a net increase of $3.6 million of long-term debt. As
a result of the transaction, the
    
 
                                       25
<PAGE>   28
 
Company will manage these 12 AmeriSuites bringing to 13 the number of
AmeriSuites hotels to be owned and operated by the Company.
 
     The Company continues to pursue its program of refurbishing certain of its
Owned Hotels and repositioning them in order to meet the local market's demand
characteristics. In some instances, this may involve a change in franchise
affiliation. The refurbishment and repositioning program primarily involves
hotels which the Company has recently acquired through mortgage foreclosures or
settlements, lease evictions/terminations or acquisitions. During 1993 and 1994,
the Company spent approximately $5.0 million and $11.9 million on capital
improvements at its Owned Hotels, of which approximately $2.8 million and $8.9
million related to refurbishments and repositionings on 12 Owned Hotels. In
1995, the Company intends to spend approximately $18.0 million on capital
improvements, of which $10.8 million relates to the refurbishing and
repositioning of recently acquired hotels.
 
     Asset Realizations.  The Company has pursued a strategy of converting the
mortgage notes receivable and other assets that it owns into cash or operating
hotel assets. Since July 31, 1992, the Company has received $98.5 million in
cash and added seven operating hotel assets through note settlements and lease
terminations. During 1994, the Company reduced its long-term mortgage and notes
receivable portfolio by $81.8 million to $81.3 million at December 31, 1994.
This reduction is primarily attributable to the settlement of the note
receivable from Rose and Cohen described below, which carried a book value of
$25.0 million, for $31.2 million in cash, and the conversion of the Company's
mortgage note receivable secured by the Frenchman's Reef with a book value of
$50.0 million into an operating hotel asset. The Company will continue to pursue
settlement with mortgage and note obligors and will utilize the cash for debt
repayments or general corporate purposes.
 
     In April 1994, the Company received a favorable ruling from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida in litigation with
Financial Security Assurance, Inc. ("FSA"), with respect to FSA's attempt to
recover a payment made to the Company under the Rose and Cohen note receivable.
In 1993, the Company reached a settlement with Rose and Cohen of an adversary
proceeding regarding a promissory note and personal guarantee. The settlement
provided for Rose or his affiliate to pay the Company the sum of $25.0 million,
all of which was paid into escrow in February 1994, plus proceeds from the sale
of approximately 1.1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock held by Rose.
FSA asserted that it was entitled to receive the settlement proceeds under the
terms of an intercreditor agreement. Upon receipt of the Bankruptcy Court order
in April 1994, the Company used the $25.0 million of settlement proceeds to
retire its Senior Secured Notes. On April 21, 1994, FSA filed its notice of
appeal of the Bankruptcy Court's order. The appeal was argued before the United
States District Court in November 1994 and the decision of the District Court is
pending. During 1994, Rose sold approximately 1.0 million shares of the
Company's Common Stock under the terms of the settlement for net proceeds of
approximately $6.2 million. Subject to further court order, the Company is
required to use the stock proceeds principally to retire Senior Secured Notes.
As the Rose and Cohen note had a book value of $25.0 million on the Company's
balance sheet, approximately $6.2 million was recorded as income in the
Company's statement of operations.
 
     In December 1994, the Company obtained ownership of the Frenchman's Reef
through a pre-negotiated plan of reorganization. The Company had previously
reached an agreement in 1993 to restructure its mortgage notes receivable
secured by the Frenchman's Reef with the general partner of Frenchman's Reef
Beach Associates ("FRBA"), the owner of the hotel. In conjunction with the
agreement, FRBA filed a pre-negotiated chapter 11 petition in September 1993.
During the reorganization period, the Company continued to receive cash payments
on its mortgage notes receivable under a cash collateral order approved by the
Bankruptcy Court. Under the plan of reorganization, which was approved by the
Bankruptcy Court on November 29, 1994, the Company obtained ownership and
control of the hotel.
 
   
     In addition, during 1994, the Company received $2.1 million in settlement
of other mortgage notes receivable realizing a gain of $125,000. The Company
also sold its fee interests in two hotels in 1994 for a combination of cash and
notes of $2.5 million and realized gains of $1.0 million.

                                    BUSINESS
 
THE COMPANY
 
     Prime is a leading hotel owner/operator with a portfolio of 87 hotels
totalling 12,743 rooms. Located primarily in secondary markets in 19 states and
the U.S. Virgin Islands, Prime's hotels operate either under franchise
agreements with hotel brands such as Marriott, Radisson, Sheraton, Holiday Inn,
Ramada and Howard Johnson, or under the Company's proprietary brand names,
AmeriSuites and Wellesley Inns. The Company owns or leases 50 hotels and manages
37 hotels for third parties. Prime holds financial interests in the form of
mortgages on or profit participations in 17 of the Managed Hotels. In total, the
Company has equity or financial interests in 67 hotels containing approximately
10,000 rooms.
 
     The Company operates in three major lodging industry segments:
full-service, all-suites and limited-service. Approximately 53% of Prime's hotel
rooms are in full-service hotels. The AmeriSuites hotels, which comprise
approximately 12% of the Company's hotel rooms, are mid-priced, all-suites
hotels, situated near office parks and travel destinations in the Southern and
Central United States. Prime also competes in the limited-service segment, which
comprises approximately 35% of its hotel rooms, primarily through its
economically priced Wellesley Inns, which are located in Florida, the Middle
Atlantic and the Northeast.
 
     Prime is fundamentally committed to hotel equity ownership. Significant
elements of Prime's ownership strategy are strong in-house hotel management and
control of its proprietary brands, both of which have contributed to improved
hotel operating performance. Reflecting Prime's operating strengths, the
Company's hotels generated average operating profit margins that exceeded
comparable industry averages for 1993, as reported by industry sources, by
approximately 25% for full-service hotels, 21% for all-suites hotels and 6% for
limited-service hotels.
 
     The Company's growth strategy is to:
 
     - generate improved results at existing hotels through increased operating
       efficiencies;
 
     - acquire full-service hotels with potential for operating and marketing
       improvements; and
 
     - expand the AmeriSuites hotel brand to meet growing all-suites segment
       demand.
 
   
     The Company's strategy for improving results at its existing hotels
includes using sophisticated operating, marketing and financial systems and
capitalizing on the operating leverage inherent in the lodging industry.
Implementation of the Company's strategy, together with positive industry
trends, has produced improved performance in recent years. Exemplifying the
Company's operating leverage, during 1994 REVPAR increased 7.4% while net
operating income increased 17.0%, as compared to the prior year, for Company-
owned comparable hotels, which are hotels that have been open for all of 1993
and 1994. The Company expects further improvement for the lodging sector and to
continue to improve the performance of its existing hotels.
    
 
     The Company seeks to capitalize on its strength as a full-service hotel
owner/operator and the favorable outlook for the full-service segment by
continuing to pursue the acquisition of full-service hotels. In 1994 the Company
acquired four full-service hotels with approximately 1,000 rooms. With a
continued industry outlook for limited new room supply, steady demand growth and
acquisition prices at discounts to replacement cost in the full-service segment,
Prime believes that the acquisition of full-service hotels will continue to
provide significant growth opportunities.
 
   
     Prime is also committed to developing its AmeriSuites all-suites hotel
brand. The Company believes that AmeriSuites provides an excellent guest
experience, and offers desirable suite accommodations and other amenities at
mid-scale prices. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company acquired the
option of ShoLodge, Inc. to purchase a 50% interest in 11 of the Company's 12
AmeriSuites hotels, acquired the only AmeriSuites hotel not already owned by
Prime and assumed management of all 12 of these AmeriSuites hotels
(collectively, the "ShoLodge Transaction"), thereby establishing Prime's
exclusive control over the AmeriSuites brand. Prior to completion of the
ShoLodge Transaction, the Company managed only one of the 13 AmeriSuites hotels
and the other 12 hotels were managed by ShoLodge, Inc. In 1994 the Company
opened
    
 
                                       28
<PAGE>   31
 
four new AmeriSuites. The Company currently plans to open or commence
construction of ten new AmeriSuites with approximately 1,250 rooms in 1995. The
Company already owns six development sites for new AmeriSuites hotels and has
begun construction at sites in Atlanta, Greensboro and Miami.
 
   
     The Company is the successor in interest to PMI. PMI restructured its
operations and capital structure pursuant to a bankruptcy reorganization
completed on July 31, 1992. Under its restructuring, PMI recruited new
management and directors, reduced its liabilities by $448.8 million, revalued
its assets to reflect fair market value, and eliminated unprofitable contract
commitments. During the period from July 31, 1992 through December 31, 1994, the
Company further reduced its debt by $82.6 million from $266.4 million to $183.8
million, and reduced its portfolio of notes receivable through cash collections
and collateral recoveries by $143.4 million from $226.6 million to $83.2
million. In the process, the Company increased its investment in hotel fixed
assets by $138.9 million from $160.4 million to $299.3 million, and increased
stockholders' equity by $68.5 million from $135.6 million to $204.1 million.
With a strengthened balance sheet, a diminished note receivable portfolio and a
significantly increased base of Owned Hotels, the Company believes that it is
well positioned to implement its growth strategy.
    
 
LODGING INDUSTRY
 
  Overview
 
     As a leading owner/operator of hotels, Prime believes that it is well
positioned to benefit from the continuing recovery occurring in the lodging
industry. The recovery has been driven by a favorable supply/demand imbalance
resulting primarily from increased economic activity and the sharp decline in
the growth of the supply of new hotel rooms since 1991. Demand growth exceeded
new supply growth by 3.0% in 1993 and by 3.3% in 1994, as reported by Smith
Travel Research. Since 1991, demand growth has outpaced new room supply growth,
resulting in an increase in industry-wide occupancy levels from 60.9% in 1991 to
65.2% in 1994. Higher occupancy levels have allowed the industry to increase
rates. In 1994, ADR increased by 3.8% over 1993 levels, marking the first
inflation-adjusted ADR growth since 1986. REVPAR increased by 7.3% in 1994.
Because of the operating leverage inherent in the lodging industry, increases in
REVPAR have had a major impact on hotel operating performance, with industry
pretax profits growing from breakeven levels in 1992 to approximately $4.6
billion in 1994, as estimated by Smith Travel Research.
 
  U.S. Lodging Industry Profile
 
     The following table was compiled from industry operating data as reported
by Smith Travel Research and highlights industry data for the United States and
the regions in which most of the Company's hotels are located: the Middle
Atlantic region, which is comprised of New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania;
and the South Atlantic region, which is comprised of Florida, Georgia, South
Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware. The table also
includes operating data concerning the three price levels in which the Company
competes: upscale, mid-price and economy.

     Lodging industry analysts expect further improvement for the lodging
sector. The primary reasons contributing to continued growth include:
 
     - Overall supply growth is expected to remain modest in 1995 and 1996 as
       replacement costs continue to exceed acquisition prices and the
       availability of construction financing remains limited. However, these
       disincentives are not equally prevalent in all segments of the industry
       as evidenced by the new supply growth in the budget and economy price
       levels.
 
     - Room demand growth is expected to continue due to continued economic
       growth, expected increases in leisure and international travel and
       favorable demographics.
 
     - Higher occupancy rates have provided the industry with pricing power as
       evidenced by the 3.8% increase in ADR in 1994, which outpaced the growth
       in the consumer price index.

(1) Of the 49 Owned Hotels, nine are leased. The leases covering the Company's
    leased hotels provide for fixed lease rents and, in most instances,
    additional percentage rents based on a percentage of room revenues. The
    leases also generally require the Company to pay the cost of repairs,
    insurance and real estate taxes. In addition, some of the Company's Owned
    Hotels are located on land subject to long-term leases, generally for terms
    in excess of the depreciable lives of the improvements.
 
(2) Seventeen Managed Hotels in which the Company holds a mortgage or profit
    participation on the property.
 
(3) ShoLodge managed eleven of the AmeriSuites owned by the Company as of
    December 31, 1994, but, as of March 31, 1995, these hotels are managed by
    the Company.

  Full-Service Hotels
 
     The Company currently operates 32 full-service hotels under franchise
agreements with Marriott, Radisson, Sheraton, Holiday Inn (including Crowne
Plaza), Ramada and Howard Johnson. The full-service hotels are concentrated in
the Northeast region of the United States. The hotels are generally positioned
along major highways within close proximity to corporate headquarters, office
parks, airports, convention or trade centers and other major facilities. The
customer base for full-service hotels consists primarily of business travelers
and tourists. Consequently, the Company's sales force markets to companies which
have a significant number of employees travelling in the Company's operating
regions who consistently produce a high volume demand for hotel room nights. In
addition, the Company's sales force actively markets meeting and banquet
services to groups and individuals for seminars, business meetings, holiday
parties and weddings.
 
     The Company owns and operates one resort hotel, the Frenchman's Reef in St.
Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. The Frenchman's Reef is a 517-room resort hotel
which includes a 421-room eight-story building and 96 rooms in the adjacent
Morningstar Beach Resort. The Frenchman's Reef has seven restaurants, extensive
convention facilities, complete sports and beach facilities and a self-contained
total energy and desalinization system. The Frenchman's Reef is marketed
directly through its own sales force in New York City and at the hotel, and
through the Marriott reservation system. The Frenchman's Reef markets primarily
to tour groups, corporate meetings, conventions and individual vacationers.
 
     The full-service hotels generally have between 150 and 300 rooms, pool,
restaurant, lounge, banquet and meeting facilities. Other amenities include
fitness rooms, room service, remote-control cable television and facsimile
services. In order to enhance guest satisfaction, the Company has recently
introduced or expanded theme concept lounges such as sports bars, fifties clubs
and country and western bars in a number of its hotels. In recent years, the
Company has received recognition from various franchisors and associations for
its hotel quality and service.

     The Company believes opportunities exist for acquisitions of full-service
hotels at attractive multiples of cash flow or at significant discounts to
replacement values. During 1994, the Company acquired the 183-room Ramada Inn in
Clifton, New Jersey, the 280-room Ramada Inn in Trevose, Pennsylvania, which the
Company has since converted to a Radisson, the 340-room Sheraton in Hasbrouck
Heights, New Jersey and the 225-room Sheraton hotel in Mahwah, New Jersey. In
addition, the Company obtained ownership of the 517-room Frenchman's Reef hotel
through a note receivable settlement in 1994. The Company does not anticipate
the acquisition of other resort hotels. The Company currently plans to pursue
the acquisition of additional full-service hotels in 1995. With a continued
outlook for limited new room supply, steady demand growth and acquisition prices
at discounts to replacement cost in the full-service segment, Prime believes
that the acquisition of full-service hotels will continue to provide significant
growth opportunities. Although the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of
hotels located throughout the United States based primarily on hotel-specific
economic factors, acquisition opportunities in the Mid-Atlantic region are more
likely to come to the Company's attention given the Company's current ownership
concentration.
 
     The majority of the Company's repositioning efforts have been performed at
the full-service hotels. During 1993 and 1994, the Company successfully
completed the repositioning of nine of its full-service hotels which included
changing the franchise affiliations of four such hotels. The Company is in the
process of repositioning two additional full-service hotels, including an $8.5
million project to reposition the recently acquired Hasbrouck Heights Sheraton.
 
  All-Suites Hotels
 
   
     The Company currently owns 13 AmeriSuites hotels, which are positioned in
the all-suites segment of the lodging industry. AmeriSuites hotels offer guests
an attractively designed suite unit with a complimentary continental breakfast
in a spacious lobby cafe, remote-control cable television and facsimile/computer
service. AmeriSuites is a limited-service concept which offers group meeting
space, but does not include restaurant or
    
 
                                       33
<PAGE>   36
 
lounge facilities. AmeriSuites attract customers who typically stay in
mid-market limited-service and full-service hotels principally because of the
quality of the guest suites, which offer distinct living, sleeping and kitchen
areas. AmeriSuites contain approximately 125 suites and two to four meeting
rooms. AmeriSuites are primarily located near corporate office parks and travel
destinations in the Southern and Central parts of the United States. The target
customer is primarily the business traveler with an average length of stay of
two to three nights. AmeriSuites are marketed on a local level primarily through
direct sales and use the ShoLodge reservation system.
 
     In February 1995, the Company entered into the agreements pertaining to the
ShoLodge Transaction, pursuant to which the Company acquired the option of
ShoLodge to purchase a 50% interest in 11 of the Company's 12 AmeriSuites
hotels. As part of this transaction, the Company also acquired the only
remaining AmeriSuites not already owned by Prime and assumed management of all
12 of these AmeriSuites hotels, thereby establishing Prime's exclusive control
over the AmeriSuites brand.
 
     The following table sets forth for the five years ended December 31, 1994,
certain data with respect to AmeriSuites hotels owned by the Company. Operating
data for the hotels built during the five-year period are presented from the
dates such hotels commenced operations.

</TABLE>
 
     The Company believes that the all-suites segment will continue to be a high
growth segment of the industry. For 1994, REVPAR for the all-suites segment grew
by 7.8%, according to Smith Travel Research. The REVPAR growth at the Company's
AmeriSuite hotels exceeded this favorable industry trend. For the six owned
AmeriSuites hotels which were opened for all of 1993 and 1994, REVPAR increased
by 13.1% in 1994 resulting in a 19.3% increase in operating income.
 
     The Company plans to develop the AmeriSuites brand through new
construction. All of the AmeriSuites were constructed within the past five
years. The Company has historically built AmeriSuites at a cost of approximately
$50,000 per room. AmeriSuites have a low cost structure and have generally
achieved stable occupancy and ADR within 24 to 36 months after opening. During
1994, the Company opened four newly constructed AmeriSuites hotels in Overland
Park, Kansas, Columbus, Ohio, Tampa, Florida, and Louisville, Kentucky. The
Company has begun developing or has plans to develop AmeriSuites on sites it
currently owns in Atlanta, Greensboro, Miami, Baltimore, Detroit and Cleveland
areas and has entered into a contract to purchase an additional AmeriSuites site
in the Dallas area. The Company currently plans to open or commence construction
on 10 new AmeriSuites hotels in 1995 and has already begun construction at the
Atlanta, Greensboro and Miami sites.
 
  Limited-Service Hotels
 
     The Company's limited service hotels consist of 30 Wellesley Inns and 12
other hotels operated under franchise agreements primarily with Howard Johnson.
Of the Company's 30 Wellesley Inns, 16 are located in Florida and the remainder
in the Middle Atlantic and Northeast United States. The Company owns and
operates 14 Wellesley Inns and manages 16 Wellesley Inns for independent owners.
Of the Company-owned Wellesley Inns, ten are located in Florida and four are
located in the Middle Atlantic and the Northeast. The Company has developed
separate strategies for the Wellesley Inns located in Florida and the Wellesley
Inns
 
                                       34
<PAGE>   37
 
outside of Florida. In Florida, where the population has grown rapidly and
development opportunities continue to exist, it has built a geographically
concentrated group of Wellesley Inns thereby developing brand name recognition
in Florida. In 1994, the comparable Florida Wellesley Inns average occupancy was
approximately 84.7% and gross operating profits averaged 52% of hotel revenues.
The prototypical Florida Wellesley Inn has 105 rooms and is distinguished by its
classic stucco exterior, spacious lobby and amenities such as continental
breakfast, remote control cable television and facsimile services. The Florida
properties are operated through the Company's Florida regional office. Marketing
efforts rely heavily on direct marketing and billboard advertising. In the
Middle Atlantic and Northeast where the Company believes new development
opportunities are limited, the Company has focused on building the Wellesley
Inns system through acquisition and conversion of existing properties. In 1994,
the comparable Wellesley Inns outside of Florida had an average occupancy of
71.1% and average gross operating profits of 47%.
 
     The Company's other limited-service hotels have an average of between 100
and 120 rooms and offer complimentary continental breakfast, remote control
cable television, pool facilities and facsimile services, generally with
restaurant facilities within a short distance of the hotel. They are designed to
appeal primarily to business travelers.
 
     The following table sets forth for the five years ended December 31, 1994,
annual operating data for the 42 limited-service hotels in the Company's
portfolio as of December 31, 1994. Operating data for the Owned Hotels built or
acquired during the five-year period are presented from the dates such hotels
commenced operations or became Owned Hotels.

</TABLE>
 
     The majority of the Florida Wellesley Inns were constructed within the past
five years. The Company historically has constructed these properties at a cost
of approximately $40,000 per room. Florida Wellesley Inns have a low cost
structure and have had rapid stabilization periods generally within six to
twelve months of opening. During 1994, the Company completed construction of
Wellesley Inns in Fort Lauderdale and Lakeland, Florida and converted a Howard
Johnson's hotel in Penns Grove, New Jersey to a Wellesley Inn.
 
REFURBISHMENT PROGRAM
 
     The Company continuously refurbishes its Owned Hotels in order to maintain
consistent quality standards. The Company generally spends approximately 4% to
6% of hotel revenue on capital improvements at its Owned Hotels and typically
refurbishes each hotel approximately every five years. The Company believes that
its Owned Hotels are in generally good physical condition, with over half of the
Owned Hotels
 
                                       35
<PAGE>   38
 
being five years old or less. The Company recommends the refurbishment and
repair projects on its Managed Hotels although spending amounts vary based on
the financial strength of the hotel and its owner and the significance of the
Company's interest as a mortgagee.
 
     In addition to making normal capital improvements, the Company reviews on
an on-going basis each hotel's competitive position in the local market in order
to decide the types of product that will best meet the market's demand
characteristics. During the past two years, the Company has implemented a
program of repositioning its Owned Hotels. Repositioning a hotel generally
requires renovation and refurbishment of the exterior and interior of the
building and may result in a change of brand name. In 1993 and 1994, the Company
spent $2.8 million and $8.9 million on the repositioning of 12 of its Owned
Hotels, which included changing the franchise affiliation of six of such hotels.
While the major refurbishment efforts at the Company's existing hotels have
substantially been completed, the Company's future refurbishing spending will
focus on newly acquired hotels. During 1995, the Company currently plans to
spend approximately $10.8 million to reposition or refurbish recently acquired
hotels.
 
MORTGAGES AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
 
     As of December 31, 1994, mortgages and notes receivable totalled $83.2
million (including current portion) and consisted of an aggregate principal
amount of $60.6 million of mortgages and notes secured by Managed Hotels and
hotels that are leased by the Company from third parties and $22.6 million of
other mortgages and notes secured primarily by other hotels. The Company has
pursued a strategy of converting its mortgage and notes receivable into cash or
operating hotel assets. Since July 31, 1992, the Company has received $98.5
million in cash and added seven operating hotel assets through note settlements
and lease terminations. During 1994, the Company reduced its long-term mortgage
and notes receivable portfolio by $81.8 million to $81.3 million at December 31,
1994. This reduction is primarily attributable to the settlement of the Rose and
Cohen note receivable, which carried a book value of $25.0 million, for $31.2
million in cash, and the conversion of the Company's mortgage note receivable
secured by the Frenchman's Reef with a book value of $50.0 million into an
operating hotel asset. The Company will continue to pursue settlements with
mortgage and note obligors and will utilize the cash for debt repayments or for
general corporate purposes.
 
     The Company's mortgage notes secured by hotel properties consist primarily
of notes with a book value of $46.5 million secured by mortgages on ten Managed
Hotels. These notes currently bear interest at rates ranging from 8.5% to 13.5%
per annum and have various maturities through 2017. The mortgages were primarily
derived from the sales of hotel properties. The Company has restructured
approximately $33.0 million of these mortgages and notes to receive the majority
of available cash flow and a participation in the future excess cash flow of
such hotel properties. The restructurings generally include senior mandatory-
payment notes and junior notes payable annually based on cash flow. The Company
believes that these senior, mandatory-payment notes generally do not exceed the
current realizable value of the hotels they encumber. However, the Company
believes that, taken together, the restructured senior and junior mortgage notes
often exceed the value of the properties they encumber. As a result, these
junior notes bear many of the characteristics and risks of operating hotel
equity investments and are not reflected on the Company's balance sheet. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations --Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 
   
     In addition to the mortgage positions referred to above, the Company also
holds the junior, accruing or cash flow notes and other interests on other
properties managed by the Company. With regard to these properties, third
parties generally hold significant senior mortgages. Because there is
substantial doubt that the Company will recover any of the value on its junior
notes, none of these subordinated financial interests are assigned a value on
the Company's balance sheet.
    
 
     In 1994, the Company recognized $15.9 million of interest on mortgages and
notes receivable. Approximately $4.6 million, or 28.9%, of the 1994 interest was
derived from the Company's note receivable
 
                                       36
<PAGE>   39
 
   
secured by the Frenchman's Reef which was converted into an equity ownership
position in December 1994. Approximately $2.0 million or 12.6% of 1994 interest
was derived from the junior notes which are assigned no value on the Company's
balance sheet. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."
    
 
     In addition to mortgages and notes receivable, as of December 31, 1994, the
Company had other assets that totalled $16.9 million, which consisted of real
property not related to Owned Hotels (approximately $8.0 million of which
consisted of an office building).
 
MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
 
     The Company provides hotel management services to third party hotel owners
of 37 Managed Hotels including 16 Wellesley Inns for which the Company provides
the brand name. The number of Managed Hotels declined during 1994 due to the
sale of ten hotels by independent owners, four of which were acquired by the
Company. Management fees are derived from the Managed Hotels based on fixed
percentages of the property's total revenues and performance related incentive
payments based on certain measures of hotel income. Additional fees are also
generated from the rendering of specific services such as accounting services,
construction services, design services and sales commissions. The Company's
fixed management fee percentages range from 1.0% to 5.0% and average 3.5% of the
Managed Hotel's total revenues before giving consideration to performance
related incentive payments. The base and incentive fees comprised approximately
59%, or $5.9 million, of the total management and other fees in 1994. Terms of
the management agreements vary but the majority are short-term and, therefore,
there are risks associated with termination of these agreements. Furthermore,
management agreements may be terminated in connection with a change in ownership
of the underlying hotels. Although such risks may be limited due to the
Company's role as lender or provider of the Wellesley Inn brand name, 18 of the
Managed Hotels, including the 16 Wellesley Inns referenced above, are highly
leveraged with debt maturing in December 1995. There can be no assurance that
such debt can be repaid or restructured by the third party hotel owners in a
manner that would permit the Company to continue as manager of such properties.
The Company holds financial interests in the form of mortgages or profit
participations in 17 of the 37 Managed Hotels and other interests and control
rights (primarily brand control) in 13 of the remaining 20 Managed Hotels.
 
OPERATIONS
 
     As a leading domestic hotel operating company, the Company enjoys a number
of operating advantages over other lodging companies. With 86 hotels covering a
number of price points and broad geographic regions, the Company possesses the
critical mass to support sophisticated operating, marketing and financial
systems. The Company believes that its broad array of central services permits
on-site hotel general managers to effectively focus on providing guest services,
results in economies of scale and leads to above-market hotel profit margins. As
a result of these operating strategies, the Company's hotels generated average
operating profit margins that exceeded comparable industry averages for 1993, as
reported by industry sources, by approximately 25% for full-service hotels,
approximately 21% for all-suites hotels and approximately 6% for limited-service
hotels.
 
     The Company's operating strategy combines operating service and guidance
from its central management team, with decentralized decision-making authority
delegated to each hotel's on-site management. The on-site hotel management teams
focus on providing guest services and consist of a general manager and,
depending on the hotel's size and market positioning, managers of sales and
marketing, food and beverage, front desk services, housekeeping and engineering.
The Company's operating objective is to exceed guest expectations by providing
quality services and comfortable accommodations at the lowest cost consistent
with each hotel's market position. On-site hotel management is responsible for
efficient expense controls and uses operating standards provided by the Company.
Within parameters established in the operating and capital planning process,
on-site management possesses broad decision-making authority on operating issues
such as guest
 
                                       37
<PAGE>   40
 
services, marketing strategies, hiring practices and incentive programs. Each
hotel's management team is empowered to take all necessary steps to ensure guest
satisfaction within established guidelines. Key on-site personnel participate in
an incentive program based on hotel revenues and profits.
 
     The central management team, located in Fairfield, New Jersey, provides
four major categories of services: (i) operations management, (ii) sales and
marketing management, (iii) financial reporting and control and (iv) hotel
support services.
 
     Operations Management.  Operations management consists of the development,
implementation and monitoring of hotel operating standards and is provided by a
network of regional operating officers who are each responsible for the
operations of 10 to 15 hotels. They are supported by training, food and beverage
and human resources departments, each staffed full-time by specialized
professionals. The cornerstone of operations management is employee training,
with a staff of professionals dedicated to training in sales, housekeeping, food
service, front desk services and leadership. The Company believes these efforts
increase employee effectiveness, reduce turnover and improve the level of guest
services.
 
     The Company's cost-effective centralized management services benefit not
only its existing operations but also provide additional opportunities for
growth and development from acquisitions. In all of the recently acquired
hotels, the Company's headquarters have assumed certain of the operational
responsibilities which previously had been performed by the on-site hotel
management. In addition, the Company believes it has improved operating
efficiencies for each of these hotels that it has acquired.
 
     Sales and Marketing Management.  Aggressive sales and marketing is a top
operating priority. Sales and marketing management is directed by a corporate
staff of 20 professionals, including regional marketing directors who are
responsible for each hotel's sales and marketing strategies, and the Company's
national sales group, Market Segments, Inc. ("MSI"). In cooperation with the
regional marketing and organization staff, on-site sales management develops and
implements short- and intermediate-term marketing plans. The Company focuses on
yield management techniques, which optimize the relationship between hotel rates
and occupancies and seek to maximize profitability. In addition, the Company
assumes prominent roles in franchise marketing associations to obtain maximum
benefit from franchise affiliations. The Company's in-house creative department
creates hotel advertising materials and programs at cost-effective rates.
 
     Complementing regional and on-site marketing efforts, MSI's marketing team
targets specific hotel room demand generators including tour operators, major
national corporate accounts, athletic teams, religious groups and others with
segment-specialized sales initiatives. MSI's primary objective is to book hotel
rooms at the Company's hotels and its secondary objective is to market its
services on a commission basis to major operators throughout the industry. Sales
activities on behalf of non-affiliated hotels increase the number of hotels
where bookings can be made to support marketing efforts and defray the costs of
the marketing organization.
 
     Financial Reporting and Control.  The Company's system of centralized
financial reporting and control permits management to closely monitor
decentralized hotel operations without the cost of financial personnel on site.
Centralized accounting personnel produce detailed financial and operating
reports for each hotel. Additionally, central management directs budgeting and
analysis, processes payroll, handles accounts payable, manages each hotel's
cash, oversees credit and collection activities and conducts on-site hotel
audits.
 
     Hotel Support Services.  The Company's hotel support services combine a
number of technical functions in central, specialized management teams to attain
economies of scale and minimize costs. Central management handles purchasing,
directs construction and maintenance and provides design services. Technical
staff teams support each hotel's information and communication systems needs.
Additionally, the Company directs safety/risk management activities and provides
central legal services.

FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS
 
     The Company enters into non-exclusive franchise licensing agreements with
various franchisors, which agreements typically have a ten year term and allow
the Company to benefit from franchise brand recognition and loyalty. The
non-exclusive nature of the franchise agreement allows the Company the
flexibility to continue to develop properties with the brands that have shown
success in the past or to develop in conjunction with other brand names. This
flexibility also plays an important role in the Company's repositioning strategy
for continued earnings growth which emphasizes proper positioning of its
properties within these respective markets to maximize their return on
investment. Over the past two years, the Company has repositioned several hotels
that were either owned or managed or recently acquired. These repositionings
include the Portland, Oregon Crowne Plaza (formerly Howard Johnson), the Las
Vegas, Nevada Crowne Plaza (formerly Howard Johnson), the Saratoga Springs, New
York Sheraton (formerly Ramada Renaissance), the Fairfield, New Jersey Radisson
(formerly Sheraton), the Orlando, Florida Shoney's Inn (formerly Howard
Johnson), and the Trevose, Pennsylvania Radisson (formerly Ramada). The Company
believes its relationships with numerous nationally recognized franchisors
provides significant benefits for both its existing hotel portfolio and
prospective hotel acquisitions. While the Company currently enjoys good
relationships with its franchisors, there can be no assurance that a desirable
replacement would be available if any of the franchise agreements were to be
terminated.
 
     The franchise agreements require the Company to pay annual fees, to
maintain certain standards and to implement certain programs which require
additional expenditures by the Company such as remodeling or redecorating. The
payment of annual fees, which typically total 7% to 8% of room revenues, cover
royalty fees and the costs of marketing and reservation services provided by the
franchisors. The use of franchisor reservation systems typically result in
increased occupancy. Franchise agreements, when initiated, generally provide for
an initial fee in addition to annual fees payable to the franchisor.

                              DESCRIPTION OF NOTES
 
     The Notes are to be issued under an Indenture, to be dated as of April   ,
1995 (the "Indenture"), between the Company and Bank One, Columbus, N.A., as
Trustee (the "Trustee"), a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement of which this prospectus is a part. The following
summaries of certain provisions of the Indenture do not purport to be complete
and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all the
provisions of the Indenture, including the definitions therein of certain terms.
References in italics are to the Indenture. Wherever particular Sections,
Articles or defined terms of the Indenture are referred to, such Sections,
Articles or defined terms are incorporated herein by reference. As used in this
"Description of Notes," the "Company" refers to Prime Hospitality Corp. and does
not include its subsidiaries.
 
GENERAL
 
     The Notes will be unsecured subordinated obligations of the Company, will
be limited to an aggregate principal amount of $75,000,000 (subject to increase
in the event of the exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option) and
will mature on April 15, 2002. The Notes will bear interest at the rate per
annum shown on the front cover of this Prospectus from the date of initial
issuance, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has
been paid or provided for, payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of
each year, commencing October 15, 1995, to the Person in whose name the Note (or
any predecessor Note) is registered at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date for such interest, which shall be April 1 or October 1 (whether or
not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment
Date. Interest on the Notes will be paid on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months. (Sections 3.1, 3.7 and 3.10)
 
   
     Principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be
payable, and the transfer of Notes will be registrable, at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for such purposes in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, and the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee located in
Columbus, Ohio. In addition, payment of interest may, at the option of the
Company, be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto
as it appears in the Note Register. (Sections 3.1, 3.5 and 10.2)
    
 
     The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in
denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiples thereof. (Section 3.2) No
service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. The Company is not
required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note during a
period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the
mailing of a notice of redemption and ending at the close of business on the
date of such mailing, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note
selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of
Notes being redeemed in part. (Section 3.5)
 
     All monies paid by the Company to the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the
payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on any Note which
remain unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest becomes
due and payable may be repaid to the Company. Thereafter, the Holder of such
Note may, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment
thereof. (Section 10.3)
 
     The Indenture does not contain any provisions that would provide protection
to Holders of the Notes against a sudden and dramatic decline in credit quality
of the Company resulting from any takeover, recapitalization or similar
restructuring, except as described below under "Repurchase at Option of Holders
Upon a Risk Event."
 
CONVERSION RIGHTS
 
     The Notes will be convertible into Common Stock of the Company at any time
up to and including the maturity date (subject to prior redemption by the
Company on not less than 15 nor more than 60 days' notice) at the principal
amount thereof, initially at the conversion price stated on the cover page of
this Prospectus (subject to adjustment as described below). The right to convert
Notes called for redemption or delivered for
 
                                       42
<PAGE>   45
 
repurchase will terminate at the close of business on the last Trading Day prior
to the Redemption Date or the Repurchase Date, unless the Company defaults in
making the payment due upon redemption or repurchase. (Section 13.1) For
information as to notices of redemption, see "-- Optional Redemption."
 
     The conversion price will be subject to adjustment in certain events,
including: (i) dividends (and other distributions) payable in Common Stock on
any class of capital stock of the Company, (ii) the issuance to all holders of
Common Stock of rights, warrants or options entitling them to subscribe for or
purchase Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price, (iii) subdivisions,
combinations and reclassifications of Common Stock, (iv) distributions to all
holders of Common Stock of evidences of indebtedness of the Company, cash or
other assets (including securities, but excluding those dividends, rights,
warrants, options and distributions referred to above and excluding dividends
and distributions paid exclusively in cash), (v) distributions consisting
exclusively of cash (excluding any cash portion of distributions referred to in
(iv) above or cash distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which the
second succeeding paragraph applies) to all holders of Common Stock in an
aggregate amount that, combined together with (a) all other such all-cash
distributions made within the preceding 12 months in respect to which no
adjustment has been made and (b) any cash and the fair market value of other
consideration paid or payable in respect of any tender offers by the Company or
any of its subsidiaries for Common Stock concluded within the preceding 12
months in respect of which no adjustment has been made, exceeds 12.5% of the
Company's market capitalization (defined as being the product of the Current
Market Price of the Common Stock times the number of shares of Common Stock then
outstanding) on the record date for such distribution, and (vi) the purchase of
Common Stock pursuant to a tender offer made by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries which involves an aggregate consideration that, together with (a)
any cash and the fair market value of any other consideration paid or payable in
any other tender offer by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for Common
Stock expiring within the 12 months preceding the expiration of such tender
offer in respect of which no adjustment has been made and (b) the aggregate
amount of any such all-cash distributions referred to in (v) above to all
holders of Common Stock within the 12 months preceding the expiration of such
tender offer in respect of which no adjustments have been made, exceeds 12.5% of
the Company's market capitalization on the expiration of such tender offer.
There will be no upward adjustment in the conversion price except in the event
of a reverse stock split. No adjustment in the conversion price shall be
required unless such adjustment (plus any adjustments not previously made) would
require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in such price; provided, however,
that any adjustments which by reason of this sentence are not required to be
made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent
adjustment. (Section 13.4)
 
     In addition to the foregoing adjustments, the Company will be permitted to
make such reduction in the conversion price as it considers to be advisable in
order that any event treated for federal income tax purposes as a dividend or
distribution of stock or stock rights will not be taxable to the holders of the
Common Stock. (Section 13.4)
 
     Subject to the rights of Holders of Notes described below under "Repurchase
at Option of Holders Upon a Risk Event," in case of certain consolidations or
mergers to which the Company is a party or the transfer of substantially all of
the assets of the Company, each Note then outstanding would, without the consent
of any Holders of Notes, become convertible only into the kind and amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon the consolidation, merger or
transfer by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such
Note might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger
or transfer (assuming such holder of Common Stock failed to exercise any rights
of election and received per share the kind and amount received per share by a
plurality of non-electing shares). (Section 13.11)
 
   
     Fractional shares of Common Stock will not be issued upon conversion, but,
in lieu thereof, the Company will pay a cash adjustment based upon market price.
(Section 13.3) Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close
of business on any Regular Record Date next preceding any Interest Payment Date
to the opening of business on such Interest Payment Date (except Notes called
for redemption on a Redemption Date within such period) must be accompanied by
payment of an amount equal to the interest thereon which the registered Holder
is to receive. In the case of any Note that has been converted after any Regular
Record Date but on or before the next Interest Payment Date, interest whose
Stated Maturity is on such Interest Payment Date will be payable on such
Interest Payment Date notwithstanding such conversion,
    
 
                                       43
<PAGE>   46
 
and such interest will be paid to the Holder of such Note on such Regular Record
Date. Except as described above, no interest on converted Notes will be payable
by the Company on any Interest Payment Date subsequent to the date of
conversion. No other payment or adjustment for interest or dividends will be
made upon conversion. (Sections 3.7 and 13.2)
 
     If at any time the Company makes a distribution of property to its
shareholders that would be taxable to such shareholders as a dividend for
Federal income tax purposes (e.g., distributions of evidences of indebtedness or
assets of the Company, but generally not stock dividends or rights to subscribe
for Common Stock) and, pursuant to the antidilution provisions of the Indenture,
the conversion price of the Notes is reduced, such reduction may be deemed to be
the payment of a taxable dividend to Holders of Notes. If the Company
voluntarily reduces the conversion price for a period of time, Holders of the
Notes may, in certain circumstances, have taxable income equal to the value of
the reduction in the conversion price. Holders of Notes could, therefore, have
taxable income as a result of an event pursuant to which they received no cash
or property that could be used to pay the related income tax.
 
SUBORDINATION
 
     The payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on, the
Notes will, to the extent set forth in the Indenture, be subordinated in right
of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness. Upon any
payment or distribution of assets to creditors upon any liquidation,
dissolution, winding up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of
creditors, marshalling of assets or any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
proceedings of the Company, the holders of all Senior Indebtedness will be first
entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due thereon
before the Holders of the Notes will be entitled to receive any payment in
respect of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes. In
the event of the acceleration of the maturity of any Notes, the holders of all
Senior Indebtedness will first be entitled to receive payment in full of all
amounts due or to become due thereon before the Holders of the Notes will be
entitled to receive any payment upon the principal of or premium, if any, or
interest on, the Notes. In the event and during the continuation of (i) any
default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any
Senior Indebtedness beyond any applicable grace period with respect thereto or
(ii) any other event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness
permitting the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or other
representative on behalf of the holders thereof) to declare such Senior
Indebtedness due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have
become due and payable, upon written notice thereof to the Company and the
Trustee by any holders of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or other
representative on behalf of the holders thereof) (the "Default Notice"), unless
and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived and such
acceleration shall have been rescinded or annulled, or (iii) any judicial
proceeding shall be pending with respect to any such default in payment or event
of default, then no payment may be made in respect of principal or premium, if
any, or interest on the Notes or to acquire or repurchase the Notes for cash or
property or on account of the repurchase provisions of the Indenture provided
such payments may not be prevented under clause (ii) above for more than 179
days after an applicable Default Notice has been received by the Trustee unless
the Senior Indebtedness in respect of which such event of default exists has
been declared due and payable in its entirety, in which case no such payment may
be made until such acceleration has been rescinded or annulled or such Senior
Indebtedness has been paid in full. No event of default which existed or was
continuing on the date of any Default Notice may be made the basis for the
giving of a second Default Notice and only one such Default Notice may be given
in any 365 day period. (Article Twelve)
 
     By reason of such subordination, in the event of insolvency, creditors of
the Company who are not holders of Senior Indebtedness or of the Notes may
recover less, ratably, than holders of Senior Indebtedness and may recover more,
ratably, than the Holders of the Notes.
 
   
     "Senior Indebtedness"  is defined in the Indenture as (i) the principal of
and premium, if any, and interest on all indebtedness of the Company for money
borrowed, other than the Notes, whether outstanding on the date of execution of
the Indenture or thereafter created, incurred or assumed, except any such other
indebtedness that by the terms of the instrument or instruments by which such
indebtedness was created or incurred expressly provides that it (a) is junior in
right of payment to the Notes or (b) ranks pari passu in
    
 
                                       44
<PAGE>   47
 
right of payment with the Notes, and (ii) any amendments, renewals, extensions,
deferrals, modifications, refinancings and refundings of any of the foregoing.
The term "indebtedness for money borrowed" when used with respect to the Company
is defined to mean (a) any obligation of the Company for the repayment of
borrowed money (including, without limitation, fees, penalties, expenses,
collection expenses, interest yield amounts and other obligations in respect
thereof, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest accruing after
the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code
whether or not allowed as a claim in such proceeding), whether or not evidenced
by bonds, debentures, notes or other written instruments, and any other
obligation evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, (b) any
deferred payment obligation of the Company for the payment of the purchase price
of property or assets evidenced by a note or similar instrument (excluding any
obligations for trade payables or constituting the deferred purchase price of
assets incurred in the ordinary course of business), (c) any obligation of the
Company for the payment of rent or other amounts under a lease of property or
assets which obligation is required to be classified and accounted for as a
capitalized lease on the balance sheet of the Company under generally accepted
accounting principles, (d) all obligations of the Company due and payable under
interest rate and currency swaps, floors, caps or similar arrangements intended
to fix interest rate obligations or currency fluctuation risks, (e) all
obligations of the Company evidenced by a letter of credit or any reimbursement
obligation of the Company in respect of a letter of credit and (f) all
obligations of others of the kinds described in the preceding clauses (a), (b),
(c), (d) or (e) assumed by or guaranteed by the Company and the obligations of
the Company under guarantees of any such obligations. (Section 1.1)
 
     The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all indebtedness and other
liabilities and commitments (including trade payables and lease obligations) of
the Company's subsidiaries. Any right of the Company to receive assets of any
such subsidiary upon the liquidation or reorganization of any such subsidiary
(and the consequent right of the Holders of the Notes to participate in those
assets) will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's
creditors, except to the extent that the Company is itself recognized as a
creditor of such subsidiary, in which case the claims of the Company would still
be subordinate to any security in the assets of such subsidiary and any
indebtedness of such subsidiary senior to that held by the Company.
 
     The Indenture does not prohibit or limit the incurrence of additional
Senior Indebtedness. At December 31, 1994, the Company's Senior Indebtedness
aggregated approximately $131.2 million, excluding accrued interest, and the
Company's subsidiaries had approximately $52.6 million of outstanding
indebtedness. Of the $42.6 million of indebtedness incurred during the first
quarter of 1995, $27.0 million is Senior Indebtedness of the Company and $15.6
million is indebtedness of subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries expect
from time to time to incur additional indebtedness, including Senior
Indebtedness. At December 31, 1994, the Company's aggregate indebtedness
consisted of (i) $52.6 million principal amount of Senior Secured Notes, which
bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and mature on July 31, 1999, and are
secured primarily by certain notes receivable and real property; and (ii)
certain other mortgages and notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of
$131.2 million, which bear interest at rates ranging from 6.6% to 12.5% per
annum, have maturities ranging from January 1, 1996 through July 31, 2008, and
are secured by certain real and personal property and notes receivable. See Note
5 of "Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements."
 
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
 
   
     The Notes will be redeemable at the Company's option, in whole or from time
to time in part, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days' notice mailed to
each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder's address appearing in the
Note Register, on any date on or after April 17, 1998 and prior to maturity.
    
 
     The Redemption Prices (expressed as percentage of principal amount) are as
follows for the 12-month period beginning April 15 (or April 17, in the case of
1998) of the years indicated:

and at maturity at 100% of principal, together in the case of any such
redemption with accrued interest to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of
Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on
an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date) (Sections
2.3, 11.1, 11.5, and 11.7).
 
     No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.
 
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
 
     The following will be Events of Default under the Indenture: (i) failure to
pay principal of or premium, if any, on any Note when due, whether or not such
payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture; (ii)
failure to pay any interest on any Note when due, continued for 30 days, whether
or not such payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the
Indenture; (iii) default in the payment of the Repurchase Price in respect of
any Note on the Repurchase Date therefor, whether or not such payment is
prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture; (iv) failure to
perform any other covenant of the Company in the Indenture, continued for 60
days after written notice as provided in the Indenture; (v) a default under any
indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in
an amount, together with all other such indebtedness, exceeding $5,000,000,
which default (a) shall constitute a failure to pay any principal or interest
with respect to any such indebtedness when due and payable after the expiration
of any applicable grace period with respect thereto or (b) shall have resulted
in such indebtedness in an amount exceeding $5,000,000 becoming or being
declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have
become due and payable, if such indebtedness is not discharged, or such
acceleration is not annulled, within 10 days after written notice as provided in
the Indenture; (vi) a final judgment or final judgments for payment of money
against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary which remains undischarged for
a period of 60 days, provided that the aggregate of all such outstanding
judgments exceeds $5,000,000 (excluding any amounts covered by insurance as to
which the insurer has not denied liability); and (vii) certain events of
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary. (Section 5.1) Subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to
the duties of the Trustee, in case an Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its
rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the
Holders, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
indemnity. (Section 6.3) Subject to the Trustee being offered reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be
incurred by the Trustee, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Outstanding Notes will have the right by written instruction to the
Trustee, to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred
on the Trustee. (Section 5.12)
 
     If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, either the Trustee
or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes may accelerate the maturity of all Notes; provided, however,
that after such acceleration, but before a judgment or decree based on
acceleration, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such
acceleration if all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated
principal, have been cured or waived as provided in the Indenture. (Sections 5.2
and 5.13) For information as to waiver of defaults, see "Modification and
Waiver" below.
 
   
     No Holder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding with
respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless (i) such Holder
shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event
of Default and unless also the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee
to institute proceedings, (ii) such Holder has offered to the Trustee reasonable
indemnity, (iii) the Trustee for 60 days after receipt of such notice has failed
to institute any such proceeding and (iv) no direction inconsistent with such
request shall have been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. (Section
5.7) However, such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by a Holder of
a Note for enforcement of (a) payment of the principal of and premium, if any,
or interest on such Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such
Note, (b) the right to require repurchase of such Note or (c) the right to
convert such Note in accordance with the Indenture. (Section 5.8)
    
 
                                       46
<PAGE>   49
 
     The Indenture provides that the Company will deliver to the Trustee, within
60 days after the end of each fiscal year, an officers' certificate, stating as
to each signer thereof that he or she is familiar with the affairs of the
Company and whether or not to his or her knowledge the Company is in default in
the performance and observance of any of the Company's obligations under the
Indenture and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults
of which he has knowledge and the nature and status thereof. (Section 10.4)
 
CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS
 
     The Company, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Notes under
the Indenture, may consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey,
transfer or lease its assets substantially as an entirety to any Person,
provided that (i) the successor is a Person, organized under the laws of any
domestic jurisdiction; (ii) the successor Person, if other than the Company,
assumes the Company's obligations on the Notes and under the Indenture; (iii)
after giving effect to the transaction no Event of Default, and no event which,
after notice or lapse of time, would become an Event of Default, shall have
occurred and be continuing; and (iv) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an
Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such
consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental
indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental
indenture comply with this covenant and that all conditions precedent herein
provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. (Section 8.1
and 8.2)
 
MODIFICATION AND WAIVER
 
     Modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by the Company
and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes; provided, however, that no such
modification or amendment may, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Note affected thereby, (i) change the Stated Maturity of the
principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note; (ii) reduce the
principal amount of, or the premium or interest on, any Note; (iii) change the
place of payment where, or currency in which, any Note or any premium or
interest thereof is payable; (iv) impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Note; (v) adversely affect
the right to convert the Notes; (vi) adversely affect the right to cause the
Company to repurchase the Notes; (vii) modify the subordination provisions in a
manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; (viii) reduce the above-stated
percentage of Outstanding Notes necessary to modify or amend the Indenture; or
(ix) reduce the percentage of aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes
necessary for waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or
for waiver of certain defaults. (Section 9.2)
 
     The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding
Notes may waive compliance by the Company of certain restrictive provisions of
the Indenture. (Section 10.08) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes may waive any past default or right under the
Indenture, except (i) a default in payment of principal, premium or interest,
(ii) the right of a Holder to redeem or convert the Note or (iii) with respect
to any covenant or provision of the Indenture that requires the consent of the
Holder of each Outstanding Note affected. (Section 5.13)
 
REPURCHASE AT OPTION OF HOLDERS UPON A RISK EVENT
 
     The Indenture provides that if a Risk Event (as defined below) occurs, each
Holder of Notes shall have the right (which right may not be waived by the Board
of Directors or the Trustee) at the Holder's option, to require the Company to
repurchase all of such Holder's Notes, or any portion thereof that is an
integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the "Repurchase Date") that is 45
calendar days after the date of the Company Notice (as defined below), for cash
at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be repurchased
(the "Repurchase Price"), together with accrued interest to the Repurchase Date.
(Section 14.1)
 
     Within 15 calendar days after the occurrence of a Risk Event, the Company
is obligated to mail to all Holders of record of the Notes a notice (the
"Company Notice") of the occurrence of such Risk Event and of the repurchase
right arising as a result thereof. The Company must deliver a copy of the
Company Notice to
 
                                       47
<PAGE>   50
 
the Trustee and cause a copy or a summary of such notice to be published in a
newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York. To exercise the
repurchase right, a Holder of such Notes must deliver on or before the fifth day
preceding the Repurchase Date irrevocable written notice to the Trustee of the
Holder's exercise of such right (except that the right of the Holders to convert
such Notes shall continue until the close of business on the last Trading Day
preceding the Repurchase Date), together with the Notes with respect to which
the right is being exercised, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company.
(Section 14.2)
 
     A Risk Event will be deemed to have occurred at such time as:
 
          (i) any Person (including any syndicate or group deemed to be a
     "Person" under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, other than the
     Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any current or future employee or
     director benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or
     any entity holding capital stock of the Company for or pursuant to the
     terms of such plan, or an underwriter engaged in a firm commitment
     underwriting in connection with a public offering of capital stock of the
     Company) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly,
     through a purchase, merger or other acquisition transaction or series of
     transactions, of shares of capital stock of the Company entitling such
     Person to exercise 50% or more of the total voting power of all shares of
     capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
     directors;
 
          (ii) the Company adopts a plan relating to the liquidation or
     dissolution of the Company;
 
          (iii) there occurs any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of
     the Company into, any other Person, any merger of another Person into the
     Company, or any sales or transfers of all or substantially all of the
     assets of the Company to another Person (other than a merger (a) which does
     not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of
     outstanding shares of Common Stock or (b) which is effected solely to
     change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a
     reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common
     Stock solely into shares of Common Stock); or
 
          (iv) a change in the Board of Directors of the Company in which the
     individuals who constituted the Board of Directors of the Company at the
     beginning of the twelve-month period immediately preceding such change
     (together with any other director whose election by the Board of Directors
     of the Company or whose nomination for election by the shareholders of the
     Company was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then
     in office either who were directors at the beginning of such period or
     whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease
     for any reason to constitute a majority of the directors then in office;
 
provided, however, that a Risk Event shall not be deemed to have occurred if the
closing price per share of the Common Stock for any five Trading Days within the
period of ten consecutive Trading Days ending immediately before the Risk Event
shall equal or exceed 105% of the conversion price of such Notes in effect on
each such Trading Day. A "beneficial owner" shall be determined in accordance
with Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Commission under the Exchange Act, as in
effect on the date of execution of the Indenture. (Section 14.3)
 
     The right to require the Company to repurchase Notes as a result of the
occurrence of a Risk Event could create an event of default under Senior
Indebtedness as a result of which any repurchase could, absent a waiver, be
blocked by the subordination provisions of the Notes. See "Subordination" above.
Failure of the Company to repurchase the Notes when required would result in an
Event of Default with respect to the Notes whether or not such repurchase is
permitted by the subordination provisions. The Company's ability to pay cash to
the Holders of Notes upon a repurchase may be limited by certain financial
covenants contained in the Company's credit agreements.
 
     Rule 13e-4 under the Exchange Act requires among other things the
dissemination of certain information to security holders in the event of any
issuer tender offer and may apply in the event that the repurchase option
becomes available to Holders of the Notes. The Company will comply with this
rule to the extent applicable at that time.
 
                                       48
<PAGE>   51
 
     The repurchase feature of the Notes may in certain circumstances make more
difficult or discourage a takeover of the Company and the removal of incumbent
management. The foregoing provisions would not necessarily afford Holders of the
Notes protection in the event of highly leveraged or other transactions
involving the Company that may adversely affect Holders.
 
     Except as described above with respect to a Risk Event, the Indenture will
not contain provisions permitting the Holders of the Notes to require the
Company to repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover,
recapitalization or similar transaction. Subject to the limitation on mergers
and consolidations described above, the Company, its management or its
subsidiaries could, in the future, enter into certain transactions, including
refinancings, certain recapitalizations, acquisitions, the sale of all or
substantially all of its assets, the liquidation of the Company or similar
transactions, that would not constitute a Risk Event under the Indenture, but
that would increase the amount of Senior Indebtedness (or any other
indebtedness) outstanding at such time or substantially reduce or eliminate the
Company's assets. There are no restrictions in the Indenture on the creation of
Senior Indebtedness (or any other indebtedness) and, under certain
circumstances, the incurrence of significant amounts of additional indebtedness
could have an adverse effect on the Company's ability to service its
indebtedness, including the Notes.
 
   
     If a Risk Event were to occur, no assurance can be given that the Company
would have sufficient funds to repurchase all Notes tendered by the Holders
thereof or to make any principal, premium, if any, or interest payment otherwise
required by the Notes. At March 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding
approximately $79.5 million principal amount of indebtedness, which could be
accelerated upon the occurence of certain change of control events.
    
 
     As noted above, one of the events that constitutes a Risk Event under the
Indenture is a sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company. The Indenture will be governed by New York law, and the
definition under New York law of "substantially all" of the assets of a
corporation varies according to the facts and circumstances of the transaction.
Accordingly, if the Company were to engage in a transaction in which it disposed
of less than all of its assets, a question of interpretation could arise as to
whether such disposition was of "substantially all" of its assets and whether
the transaction was a Risk Event.
 
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE
 
     The Company may discharge its obligations under the Indenture while Notes
remain Outstanding if (i) all Outstanding Notes will become due and payable at
their scheduled maturity within one year or (ii) all Outstanding Notes are
scheduled for redemption within one year, and, in either case, the Company has
deposited with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay and discharge all
Outstanding Notes on the date of their scheduled maturity or the scheduled date
of redemption. (Section 4.1)
 
GOVERNING LAW
 
     The Indenture and Notes will be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to such State's
conflicts of laws principles.
 
INFORMATION CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
 
     Bank One, Columbus, N.A. is the Trustee under the Indenture. A successor
Trustee may be appointed in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.
 
     The Trustee's duties are set forth in the Trust Indenture Act, as amended
(the "Trust Indenture Act"), and in the Indenture. The Trust Indenture Act
imposes certain limitations on the right of the Trustee, in the event it becomes
a creditor of the Company, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to
realize on certain property received in respect to any such claim as security or
otherwise. The Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions;
provided, however, if it acquires any conflicting interest within the meaning of
Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act, it must generally either eliminate such
conflict or resign.
 
     Prior to an Event of Default, the Trustee is responsible to perform only
such duties as are specifically set out in the Indenture. In case an Event of
Default shall occur (and shall not be cured), the Trust Indenture Act
 
                                       49
<PAGE>   52
 
requires that the Trustee use the degree of care of a prudent person in the
conduct of its own affairs in the exercise of its powers. Subject to such
provisions, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its
rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any of the Holders of
Notes, unless they shall have offered to the Trustees reasonable security or
indemnity. (Section 6.3)
 
                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
     The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 50,000,000 shares
of Common Stock and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock.
 
COMMON STOCK
 
   
     At April 17, 1995, 30,683,444 shares of Common Stock were issued and
outstanding. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all
matters submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders, including the
election of directors. The Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights.
Subject to the preferential rights of any outstanding series of Preferred Stock,
the holders of Common Stock will be entitled to such dividends as may be
declared from time to time by the Board of Directors from funds legally
available therefor, and will be entitled to receive pro rata all assets of the
Company available for distribution to such holders upon liquidation. No shares
of Common Stock have any preemptive or conversion rights, or the benefit of any
sinking fund. All shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. The
Board of Directors has approved an increase in the number of authorized shares
of Common Stock to 75,000,000 and a resolution authorizing such increase will be
acted on at the 1995 annual meeting of stockholders.
    
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
     The Board of Directors has authority to establish the designations,
liquidation preferences, dividend rights, terms of redemption, conversion
rights, sinking fund terms and all other preferences and rights (including
voting rights) of any series of Preferred Stock. The ability of the Board of
Directors to issue Preferred Stock, while providing flexibility in connection
with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other
things, adversely affect the voting powers of holders of Common Stock and, under
certain circumstances, may discourage an attempt by others to gain control of
the Company.
 
WARRANTS
 
     Warrants to purchase 2,106,383 shares of the Company's Common Stock were
issued to former shareholders of the Company's predecessor, PMI, in partial
settlement of their bankruptcy interests. The warrants became exercisable on
August 31, 1993 at an exercise price of $2.71 per share. The exercise price was
determined from the average per share daily closing price of the Company's
Common Stock during the year following the Effective Date. As of December 31,
1994, warrants to purchase 250,497 shares of Common Stock had been exercised.
 
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
 
     Certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the
Company summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may
delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder
might consider in its best interest, including an attempt that might result in a
premium over the market price for the shares held by stockholders.
 
     Staggered Board of Directors.  The Certificate of Incorporation and the
Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors will be divided into three classes of
Directors, each class constituting approximately one-third of the total number
of Directors and with the classes serving staggered three-year terms. The
classification of Directors will have the effect of making it more difficult for
shareholders to change the composition of the Board of Directors. The Company
believes, however, that the longer time required to elect a majority of a
classified Board of Directors will help to ensure continuity and stability of
the Company's management and policies.
 
                                       50
<PAGE>   53
 
     The classification provisions could also have the effect of discouraging a
third party from accumulating large blocks of the Company's stock or attempting
to obtain control of the Company, even though such an attempt might be
beneficial to the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, stockholders could
be deprived of certain opportunities to sell their shares of Common Stock at a
higher market price than might otherwise be the case.
 
     Fair Price Provisions.  Provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Fair Price Provisions") limit the ability of an Interested Stockholder (defined
as the beneficial owner of 20% of outstanding voting shares) to effect certain
transactions involving the Company. Unless the Fair Price Provisions are
satisfied, an Interested Stockholder may not engage in a business combination
involving the Company unless approved by 75% of the Company's outstanding voting
shares or a majority of the Disinterested Directors (as defined therein). A
business combination includes a merger, consolidation, sale of assets valued at
over $25.0 million or issuance or transfer of securities valued at over $25.0
million, or a similar transaction. In general, the Fair Price Provisions require
that an Interested Shareholder pay shareholders at least the same amount of cash
or the same amount and type of consideration paid by the Interested Shareholder
when it initially acquired the Company's shares.
 
     The Fair Price Provisions are designed to discourage attempts to take over
the Company in non-negotiated transactions utilizing two-tier pricing tactics,
which typically involve the accumulation of a substantial block of the target
corporation's stock followed by a merger or other reorganization of the acquired
company on terms determined by the purchaser. Due to the difficulties of
complying with the requirements of the Fair Price Provisions, the Fair Price
Provisions generally discourage attempts to obtain control of the Company.
 
LIMITATIONS ON DIRECTORS' LIABILITY
 
     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director of the
Company shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders,
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) in respect of certain unlawful
dividend payments or stock redemptions or redemptions or repurchases pursuant to
Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) for any transaction
from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The effect of
these provisions is to eliminate the rights of the Company and its stockholders
(through stockholders' derivative suits on behalf of the Company) to recover
monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
(including breaches resulting from grossly negligent behavior), except in the
situations described above. These provisions will not limit the liability of
directors under Federal securities laws.
 
CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW REGARDING AN INTERESTED STOCKHOLDER
 
     Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibits certain
transactions between a Delaware corporation and an "interested stockholder,"
which is defined as a person who, together with any affiliates or associates of
such person, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the
outstanding voting shares of a Delaware corporation. This provision prohibits
certain business combinations (defined broadly to include mergers,
consolidations, sales or other dispositions of assets having an aggregate value
in excess of 10% of the consolidated assets of the corporation, and certain
transactions that would increase the interested stockholder's proportionate
share ownership in the corporation) between an interested stockholder and a
corporation for a period of three years after the date the interested
stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, unless (i) the business
combination is approved by the corporation's board of directors prior to the
date the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder; (ii) the
interested stockholder acquired at least 85% of the voting stock of the
corporation (other than stock held by directors who are also officers or by
certain employee stock plans) in the transaction in which it becomes an
interested stockholder; or (iii) the business combination is approved by a
majority of the board of directors and by the affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of the
outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

</TABLE>
 
     The Underwriters have advised the Company that they propose initially to
offer the Notes to the public on the terms set forth on the cover page of this
Prospectus. The Underwriters may allow to selected dealers a commission of not
more than      % of the principal amount of Notes, and the Underwriters may
allow, and such dealers may reallow a discount of not more than      % of the
principal amount of the Notes to other dealers. The public offering price and
the concession and discount to dealers may be changed by the Underwriters after
the initial public offering of the Notes. The Notes are offered subject to
receipt and acceptance by the Underwriters, and to certain other conditions,
including the right to reject orders in whole or in part.
 
     The Company has granted the Underwriters an option for 30 days to purchase
up to an additional $11,250,000 principal amount of Notes solely to cover
over-allotments, if any, at the same price per Note as the initial $75,000,000
principal amount of Notes to be purchased by the Underwriters. To the extent the
Underwriters exercise this option, each of the Underwriters will be committed to
purchase such additional Notes in approximately the same proportion as set forth
in the above table.
 
     The Underwriting Agreement provides that the Company will indemnify the
Underwriters against certain liabilities, including civil liabilities under the
Securities Act or will contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required
to make in respect thereof.
 
     The Notes are a new issue of securities for which there is currently no
public market. The Notes have been approved for listing on the New York Stock
Exchange, subject to notice of issuance. However, no assurance can be given as
to the liquidity of or trading market for the Notes.
 
     Directors and executive officers of the Company, who in the aggregate own
approximately 715,000 shares (including options to purchase shares) of Common
Stock, have agreed not to offer for sale, sell, distribute or otherwise dispose
of any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock, now owned or hereafter acquired for a period of
approximately 90 days after the date of this Prospectus without prior written
consent of the Underwriters.
 
     The Company has granted to Smith Barney Inc. a right of first refusal to
act as the Company's exclusive financial advisor in connection with certain
transactions.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
     Certain legal matters with respect to the legality of the Notes offered
hereby will be passed upon for the Company by Willkie Farr & Gallagher, New
York, New York. Certain legal matters relating to the Offering will be passed
upon for the Underwriters by Latham & Watkins, Washington, D.C. Jack H. Nusbaum,

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Prime Hospitality Corp.:
 
     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Prime
Hospitality Corp. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries ("the Company") as
of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the related consolidated statements of income,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended and the five months
ended December 31, 1992. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Prime Hospitality Corp. and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended and the five months
ended December 31, 1992 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 1992, 1993 AND 1994
 
NOTE 1 -- BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
BUSINESS ACTIVITIES:
 
     Prime Hospitality Corp. (the "Company") is a hotel owner/operator with
     ownership or management of hotels in the United States and the U.S. Virgin
     Islands. The Company's hotels primarily provide moderately priced, quality
     accommodations in secondary markets, and operate under franchise agreements
     with national hotel chains or under the Company's proprietary Wellesley
     Inns or AmeriSuites brand names.
 
     The Company emerged from the Chapter 11 reorganization proceeding of its
     predecessor, Prime Motor Inns, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries
     ("PMI"), which consummated its Plan of Reorganization ("the Plan") on July
     31, 1992 (the "Effective Date"). PMI and certain of its subsidiaries had
     filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code
     in September of 1990. During the reorganization, PMI re-negotiated most of
     its leases, management agreements and debt commitments, resulting in the
     elimination of a substantial number of unprofitable contract relationships
     and excessive debt obligations.
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
 
     Pursuant to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountant's
     Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in
     Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), the Company adopted
     fresh start reporting as of July 31, 1992. Under fresh start reporting, the
     reorganization value of the entity was allocated to the reorganized
     Company's assets on the basis of the purchase method of accounting. The
     reorganization value (the approximate fair value) of the assets of the
     emerging entity was determined by consideration of many factors and various
     valuation methods, including discounted cash flows and price/earnings and
     other applicable ratios believed by management to be representative of the
     Company's business and industry. Liabilities were recorded at face values,
     which approximate the present values of amounts to be paid determined at
     appropriate interest rates. Under fresh start reporting, the consolidated
     balance sheet as of July 31, 1992 became the opening consolidated balance
     sheet of the emerging Company.
 
     In accordance with SOP 90-7, financial statements covering periods prior to
     July 31, 1992 are not presented because such statements have been prepared
     on a different basis of accounting and are thus not comparable.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:
 
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
     and all of its majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
CASH EQUIVALENTS:
 
     Cash equivalents are highly liquid unrestricted investments with a maturity
     of three months or less when acquired.

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
RESTRICTED CASH:
 
     Restricted cash consists primarily of highly liquid investments that serve
     as collateral for debt obligations due within one year.
 
MORTGAGES AND NOTES RECEIVABLE:
 
     Mortgages and notes receivable are reflected at their fair value as of
     July 31, 1992, adjusted for payments and other advances since that date.
     The amount of interest income recognized on mortgages and notes receivable
     is generally based on the stated interest rate and the carrying value of
     the notes. The Company has a number of subordinated or junior mortgages
     which remit payment based on hotel cash flow. Because there was substantial
     doubt that the Company would recover any of their value, these mortgages
     were assigned no value in the Company's consolidated financial statements
     when the Company adopted fresh start reporting on the Effective Date.
     Interest on cash flow mortgages and delinquent loans is generally
     recognized when cash is received.
        
     In May 1993 and October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
     issued SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and
     SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -- Income
     Recognition and Disclosures." As defined in SFAS 114 and SFAS 118, a loan
     is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable
     that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
     contractual terms of the loan agreement. SFAS 114 and SFAS 118 require that
     the measurement of impairment of a loan be based on the present value of
     expected future cash flows (net of estimated costs to sell) discounted at
     the loan's effective interest rate. Impairment can also be measured based
     on a loan's observable market price or the fair value of collateral, if the
     loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less
     than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company will be required to
     establish a valuation allowance, or adjust existing valuation allowances,
     with a corresponding charge or credit to operations.
 
     The Company is required to adopt these new accounting rules effective
     January 1, 1995. Management expects the effect of adopting these new
     accounting standards will be immaterial based on the current net carrying
     value of its mortgage and notes receivable portfolio.
 
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS:
 
     Property, equipment and leasehold improvements that the Company intends to
     continue to operate are stated at their fair market value as of July 31,
     1992 plus the cost of acquisitions subsequent to that date less accumulated
     depreciation and amortization from August 1, 1992. Provision is made for
     depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the
     estimated useful lives of the assets. Properties identified for disposal
     are stated at their estimated net realizable value.
 
INCOME TAXES:
 
     The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax
     return. For financial reporting purposes, the Company follows Financial
     Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
     109 ("FAS 109"). In accordance with FAS 109, as well as SOP 90-7, income
     taxes have been provided at statutory rates in effect during the period.
     Tax benefits associated with net operating loss carryforwards and other
     temporary differences that existed at the time fresh start reporting was

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE:
 
     Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average
     number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during
     each period. The weighted average number of common shares used in computing
     primary net income per share was 29,913,000 for the five months ended
     December 31, 1992 and 30,721,000 and 32,022,000 for the years ended
     December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively. Net income per common shares was
     restated for all periods to reflect a 9.4% reduction in the number of
     shares distributed under PMI's Plan (See Note 10). The dilutive effect of
     stock warrants and options during the five months ended December 31, 1992
     and the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994 was not material (see Note
     10).
 
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
 
     Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 31, 1992 and 1993
     consolidated financial statements to conform them to the December 31, 1994

- ---------------
(a) The Company is the holder of mortgage notes receivable with a book value of
    $46,497,000 secured primarily by 10 hotel properties operated by the Company
    under management agreements and $14,112,000 in mortgages secured primarily
    by 4 properties operated under lease agreements. These notes currently bear
    interest at rates ranging from 8.5% to 13.5% and mature through 2017. The
    mortgages were primarily derived from the sales of hotel properties. Many of
    the managed properties were unable to pay in full the annual debt service
    required under the terms of the original mortgages. The Company has
    restructured approximately $33,000,000 of these loans to pay based upon
    available cash and a participation in the future excess cash flow of such
    hotel properties. The restructurings generally include a "senior portion"
    featuring defined payment terms, and a "junior portion" payable annually
    based on cash flow. The junior portion represents the difference between the
    original mortgage and the new senior
 
                                       F-9

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
   
    portion and provides the Company the opportunity to recover that difference
if the hotel's performance improves. In addition to the junior portion of the
    restructured mortgages, the Company holds junior or other cash flow
    mortgages and subordinated interests in other hotel properties operated by
    the Company under management agreements. Pursuant to these mortgage
    agreements, the Company is entitled to receive the majority of excess cash
    flow generated by these hotel properties. In total, the Company has junior
    mortgages relating to 22 hotel properties which mature on various dates from
    1999 through 2088. Due to the junior positions of these mortgages,
    foreclosure rights are of limited value. However, these mortgages enable the
    Company to participate in a substantial portion of the future sales proceeds
    upon sales of the hotels after satisfying all obligations senior to these
    junior mortgages.
    
 
   
Although these junior mortgages have an aggregate face value of approximately
$65,000,000, in accordance with the adoption of fresh start reporting under SOP
    90-7, no value was assigned to the junior portions of the restructured notes
    or the junior mortgages and subordinated interests on the other hotels as
    there was substantial doubt at the time of valuation that the Company would
    recover any of their value. As a result, interest income on these junior or
    cash flow mortgages is recognized when cash is received. During 1993 and
    1994, the Company recognized $976,000 and $2,000,000, respectively, of
    interest income related to these mortgages. The hotels underlying these
    mortgages are all managed by the Company. Future recognition of interest
    income on these mortgages is dependent primarily upon the net cash flow of
    the underlying hotels after debt service, which is senior to the Company's
    junior positions.
    
 
(b) Other notes receivable currently bear interest at effective rates ranging
    from 4% to 10.5%, mature through 2011 and are secured primarily by hotel
    properties not currently managed by the Company.
 
(c) The mortgage notes secured by the Frenchman's Reef Resort Hotel
    ("Frenchman's Reef") consisted of first and second mortgages with face
    values of $53,383,000 and $25,613,000, respectively, with final scheduled
    principal payments of $51,976,000 and $25,613,000 due on July 31, 1995. In
    connection with the adoption of fresh start reporting, the Company valued
    the notes at $50,000,000.
 
    During the five months ended December 31, 1992, and years ended December 31,
    1993 and 1994 the Company recognized $1,770,000, $4,250,000 and $4,586,000
    of interest income on these notes, respectively, based on the level of cash
    flow generated from the hotel property available to service the notes.
    Interest income of approximately $4,300,000, $10,300,000 and $9,800,000
    would have been recorded for the five months ended December 31, 1992 and the
    years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994 if the notes receivable had been
    current in accordance with their original terms.
 
   
    In December 1994, the Company obtained ownership of Frenchman's Reef in
    satisfaction of the mortgage note receivable through a pre-negotiated plan
    of reorganization. The Company had previously reached an agreement in 1993
    to restructure its mortgage notes receivable secured by Frenchman's Reef
    with the general partner of Frenchman's Reef Beach Associates ("FRBA"), the
    owner of the hotel. In conjunction with the agreement, FRBA filed a
    pre-negotiated chapter 11 petition in September 1993. During the
    reorganization period, the Company continued to receive cash payments on its
    mortgage notes receivable under a cash collateral order approved by the
    Bankruptcy Court. Under the plan of reorganization, which was approved by
    the Bankruptcy Court on December 16, 1994, the Company obtained ownership
    and control of the hotel. The Company recorded the net assets of Frenchman's
    Reef at their respective fair market values at the time of restructuring.
    The fair market values were determined based on a recent appraisal of the
    hotel and approximated the book value of the mortgage note receivable of
    $50,000,000. Upon taking control of the property, the Company reallocated
    its basis in the mortgage note receivable of $50,000,000 to the various
    operating assets acquired (principally land, hotel building and furniture
    and fixtures) and no gain or loss was recorded in the transaction.
    
 
(d) From 1988 through 1990, PMI loaned entities controlled by Allan Rose and
    Arthur Cohen ("Rose and Cohen") an aggregate of $100,890,000 fully secured
    by property and/or personal guarantees. Based on PMI's estimate of the value
    of the collateral and the personal guarantees of Rose and Cohen and
    discussions related to the possible early payment of the loan, PMI wrote
    down the loan to $50,000,000 as

           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 
    of June 30, 1990 and discontinued the accrual of interest. As a result of
    further evaluation of the collateral and personal guarantees, the Company
    valued the note at $25,000,000 in connection with the adoption of fresh
    start reporting pursuant to SOP 90-7 as of July 31, 1992, the Effective
    Date. During 1993, the Company reached a settlement with Rose and Cohen of
    an adversary proceeding regarding a promissory note and personal guarantee,
    commenced by a subsidiary of PMI during 1991. The settlement provided for
    Rose or his affiliate to pay the Company the sum of $25 million, plus
    proceeds from approximately 1.1 million shares of the Company's common stock
    held by Rose.
 
    Financial Security Assurance, Inc. ("FSA") asserted that it was entitled to
    receive the settlement proceeds under the terms of a certain intercreditor
    agreement. In April 1994, the Court approved the settlement and ruled that
    the Company had an exclusive right to the settlement proceeds. Upon receipt
    of the order, the Company used the $25 million of settlement proceeds to
    retire certain senior secured notes (see Note 6). On April 21, 1994, FSA
    filed its notice of appeal of the Court's order. During 1994, Rose sold
    approximately 1.0 million shares of the Company's common stock under the
    terms of the settlement for net proceeds of approximately $6.2 million.
    Since the Rose and Cohen note had a book value of $25 million at the time of
    the settlement, approximately $6.2 million was recorded as other income in
    the Company's statement of operations.
 
    All proceeds received pursuant to the settlement after April 21, 1994 have
    been held in escrow until an order on the appeal is received. The Company
    believes that FSA is unlikely to prevail on its claim, and as a result, does
    not believe it will have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated
    financial statements. Upon receipt of a favorable order from the Court,
    substantially all of the net proceeds are required to be used to retire
    additional debt (see Note 6).

(a) Pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued two classes of Secured Notes which
    are identified as "Senior Secured Notes" and "Junior Secured Notes". The
    aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes issued under the Plan was
    $91,300,000, comprised of $30,100,000 of 8.20% Fixed Rate Senior Secured
    Notes and $61,200,000 of Adjustable Rate Senior Secured Notes. The aggregate
    principal amount of Junior Secured Notes issued under the Plan was
    approximately $70,000,000.
 
    During 1994, the Company repurchased $6,527,000 of its Adjustable Rate
    Senior Secured Notes, $217,000 of its 8.20% Senior Secured Notes and
    $461,000 of its 9.20% Junior Secured Notes for an aggregate purchase price
    of $7,018,000. The repurchases resulted in pretax extraordinary gains of
    $187,000. In April 1994, the Company retired its Senior Secured Notes with a
    pre-payment of $26,408,000.
 
    In addition to the repurchases described above, during 1994 the Company
    purchased through a third party agent approximately $5,200,000 of its Senior
    Secured Notes and Junior Secured Notes for aggregate consideration of
    approximately $4,800,000. These notes are currently held by the third party
    agent and have not been retired due to certain restrictions under the note
    agreements. The purchases were recorded as investments on the Company's
    balance sheet and no gain will be recorded on these transactions until the
    notes mature or are redeemed. In April 1994, approximately $1,100,000 of the
    notes were retired from the proceeds of the Rose and Cohen settlement (See
    Note 3) resulting in a pretax extraordinary gain of approximately $100,000.
    In August 1994, approximately $37,000 was retired

    resulting in a pretax extraordinary gain of $5,000. As of December 31, 1994,
    the Company had unrecognized holding gains of approximately $295,000 related
    to these securities.
 
    In 1994, the Company received consents from the required holders of its
    Junior Secured Notes to remove certain debt covenants which placed
    limitations on the Company's hotel development spending. In consideration of
    the amendment consent, the Company agreed to increase the coupon interest
    rate from 9.2% to 10.0% and to shorten the maturity by one year, from July
    31, 2000 to July 31, 1999. In addition, the designation of these notes was
    changed from Junior Secured Notes to Senior Secured Notes, as the original
    Senior Secured Notes were retired.
 
    The collateral for the Secured Notes consists primarily of mortgages and
    notes receivable and real property, net of related liabilities (the "Secured
    Note Collateral"), with a book value of $92,215,000 as of December 31, 1994.
 
    Interest on the Secured Notes is payable semi-annually. The Secured Notes
    require that 85% of the cash proceeds from the Secured Note Collateral be
    applied first to interest then to prepayment of principal. Aggregate
    principal payments on the Secured Notes are required in order that one-third
    of the principal balance outstanding on December 31, 1996 is paid by July
    31, 1998 and all of the balance is paid by July 31, 1999. To the extent the
    cash proceeds from the Secured Note Collateral are insufficient to pay
    interest or required principal payments on the Secured Notes, the Company
    will be obligated to pay any deficiency out of its general corporate funds.
 
    The Secured Notes contain covenants which, among other things, require the
    Company to maintain a net worth of at least $100,000,000, and preclude cash
    distributions to stockholders, including dividends and redemptions, until
    the Secured Notes have been paid in full.
 
(b) The Company has mortgage and other notes payable of approximately
    $74,713,000 that are secured by mortgage notes receivable and hotel
    properties with a book value of $110,476,000. Principal and interest on
    these mortgages and notes are generally paid monthly. At December 31, 1994
    these notes bear interest at rates ranging from 6.6% to 12.45% and mature
    through 2008.
 
    At December 31, 1994, the Company has outstanding loans in the amount of
    $39,896,000 payable to ShoLodge, Inc. ("ShoLodge"). The foregoing loans are
    secured by AmeriSuites hotel properties with an aggregate book value of
    $63,824,000. The notes bear interest at 10.25% and mature in April 1997. The
    Company expects to incur an additional $3,600,000 of debt in the first
    quarter of 1995 in connection with its purchase of ShoLodge's option to
    acquire a 50% interest in Suites of America, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
    of the Company (see Note 9).
 
    The Company has $11,614,000 of notes restructured under the Plan which bear
    interest at rates ranging from 8.00% to 9.20% per annum payable
    semi-annually. Prior to maturity, principal amounts outstanding will be paid
    semi-annually based on a thirty-year amortization schedule. Each note
    matures on July 31, 2002 and is secured by a lien on mortgage notes
    receivable and hotel properties with a book value of $11,129,000 at December
    31, 1994.
 
    The Company has other notes of $3,156,000, which bear interest at rates
    ranging from 8.0% to 8.2% and mature through 1999.
 
    In February 1995, the Company obtained $39 million of mortgage financing
    secured by hotels under two separate loan agreements. Both loans bear
    interest at variable rates (approximately 10.50% at December 31, 1994) and
    mature in 2000.

  Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk
 
     The Company's accounts receivable and mortgages and other notes receivable
(see Note 3) are derived primarily from and are secured by hotel properties,
which constitutes a concentration of credit risk. These notes are subject to
many of the same risks as the Company's operating hotel assets. A significant
portion of the collateral is located in the Northeastern and Southeastern United
States.
 
     In addition to the hotel property related receivables referred to above,
the Company's financial instruments include (i) assets; cash and cash
equivalents and restricted cash investments and (ii) liabilities; trade and
notes payable and long-term debt (see Note 6). As described in Note 1, in
connection with the adoption of fresh start accounting as of July 31, 1992, the
Company revalued its assets and liabilities at amounts approximating fair market
value. Since there have been no substantive adverse changes in market conditions
since the date of the revaluation and on the basis of market quotes and
experience on recent redemption offers for the Company's long-term debt, the
Company believes that the carrying amount of these financial instruments
approximated their fair market value as of December 31, 1993 and 1994.
 
     As a result of the reorganization proceedings and the rejection of certain
leases, management contracts and other guarantees, the Company has no other
material off-balance-sheet liabilities or credit risk as of December 31, 1994.

     At December 31, 1994, the Company had available federal net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $117,500,000 which will expire beginning in 2005
and continuing through 2007. Of this amount, $104,800,000 is subject to an
annual limitation of $8,735,000 under the Internal Revenue Code due to a change
in ownership of the Company upon consummation of the Plan. The Company also has
potential state income tax benefits relating to net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $9,262,000 which will expire during various periods from 1995
to 2006. Certain of these potential benefits are subject to annual limitations
similar to federal requirements due to factors such as the level of business
conducted in each state and the amount of income subject to tax within each
state's carryforward period.
 
     In accordance with FAS 109, the Company has not recognized the future tax
benefits associated with the net operating loss carryforwards or with other
temporary differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation
allowance of approximately $41,000,000 against the deferred tax asset as of
December 31, 1994. To the extent any available carryforwards or other tax
benefits are utilized, the amount of tax benefit realized will be treated as
contribution to stockholders' equity and will have no effect on the income tax
provision for financial reporting purposes. For the five months ended December
31, 1992 and the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994 the Company recognized
$789,000, $4,525,000 and $5,861,000, respectively, of such tax benefits as a
contribution to stockholders' equity. Additionally, the Company recognized
$6,954,000 as a contribution to stockholders' equity for the year ended December
31, 1994, which represents the amortization of pre-fresh start tax basis
differences related to properties and notes receivable. As a result of
reflecting substantially all of the deferred tax provisions as a contribution to
stockholders' equity, the Company had no material deferred tax assets or
liabilities as of December 31, 1993 and 1994.

(a) The Company manages 15 hotels for partnerships in which related parties own
    various interests. The income amounts shown above primarily include
    transactions related to these hotel properties.
 
(b) In 1991, the Company entered into an agreement with ShoLodge, a company
    controlled by a former director, whereby ShoLodge was appointed the
    exclusive agent to develop and manage certain hotel properties. The Company
    had loans payable to ShoLodge of $39,896,000 at December 31, 1994 related to
    the development of hotels. The Company also uses the ShoLodge reservation
    system for its Wellesley and AmeriSuites properties.
 
   
    In 1993, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Suites of America,
    Inc. ("SOA") entered into agreements with ShoLodge designed to further the
    growth of its AmeriSuites hotels from the six hotels owned by the Company at
    that time. Pursuant to these agreements, (i) ShoLodge agreed to build and
    finance six additional AmeriSuites hotels and received an option to purchase
    a 50% interest in SOA and (ii) the Company received an option pursuant to
    which it could require ShoLodge to purchase a 50% interest in SOA. By
    December 1994, ShoLodge completed the development of these six hotels, five
    of which SOA acquired during 1993 and 1994, subject to mortgages held by
    ShoLodge. The Company recorded the assets and liabilities (including the
    mortgages payable to ShoLodge) of the five hotels and consolidated their
    results of operations from the date of acquisition. Upon completion of the
    six new hotels and the exercise of the option by either ShoLodge or the
    Company, ShoLodge was to forgive its mortgage interests on the five hotels
    owned by the Company and contribute its ownership interest on the remaining
    hotel and thereby acquire a 50% interest in SOA.
    
 
   
    The exercise of the option by ShoLodge was scheduled to occur in January
    1995, when the Company and ShoLodge began to negotiate the Company's buyout
    of ShoLodge's option. In February 1995, the Company entered into an
    agreement to acquire ShoLodge's option to purchase the 50% interest in SOA
    and also acquired the ownership interest of the remaining AmeriSuites hotel
    not already owned by the Company. The consideration payable by the Company
    was determined on an arm's-length basis and was based upon the fair market
    value of the properties. The consideration totals $19,700,000 and is
    comprised of (i) $16,100,000, which will be paid in three cash installments
    during 1995, plus (ii) $18,500,000, which will be paid in notes maturing in
    1997, less (iii) $14,900,000 of existing debt on five hotels, which will be
    forgiven at face value. The transaction will result in a net increase of
    approximately $3,600,000 of long-term debt, resulting in total debt of
    $43,500,000 owed to ShoLodge. No gain or loss will be recorded on the
    forgiveness of debt. As a result of this transaction, the Company assumed
    management of these hotels.
    
 
NOTE 10 -- COMMON STOCK AND COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS
 
     Pursuant to the Plan, on July 31, 1992 the Company began distributing
shares of common stock to certain claimants and holders of PMI stock. The Plan
provided for issuance of up to 33,000,000 shares of common

stock; however, the number of shares ultimately distributed were 29,913,000. The
consolidated financial statements had previously given full effect to the
issuance of the maximum amount of 33,000,000 shares under the Plan. During 1994,
when the Company resolved the final share distribution, it restated net income
for all prior periods to reflect the 9.4% reduction in the number of shares. In
addition to the shares distributed under the Plan, warrants to purchase
2,106,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued to former
shareholders of the Company's predecessor, PMI, in partial settlement of their
bankruptcy interests. The warrants became exercisable on August 31, 1993 at an
exercise price of $2.71 per share and expire five years after the date of grant.
The exercise price was determined from the average per share daily closing price
of the Company's common stock during the year following its reorganization on
July 31, 1992. As of December 31, 1994 warrants to purchase 250,497 shares have
been exercised.
 
     On July 31, 1992, the Company adopted various stock option and performance
incentive plans under which options to purchase up to 1,650,000 shares of common
stock may be granted to directors, officers or key employees under terms
determined by the Board of Directors. During 1992, options to purchase 350,000
shares were granted to officers and directors, 240,000 of which are exercisable
at December 31, 1994. In addition, options to purchase 330,000 shares were
granted to a former officer in 1992. Such options are currently exercisable and
expire on July 31, 1995. At December 31, 1994, 180,000 of these options were
exercised. The exercise prices of the above options are based on the average
market price one year from the date of grant which was determined to be $2.71
per share. Based on this exercise price, the amount of compensation expense
attributable to these options was $225,000 and $60,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1993 and 1994, respectively.
 
     In June 1993, options to purchase 393,000 shares of common stock were
granted to employees under the Company's stock option plan. The options were
granted at $3.63, which approximates the fair market value at the date of grant.
Generally, options can be exercised during a participant's employment with the
Company in equal annual installments over a three-year period and expire six
years after the date of grant. During 1994, 41,080 shares were exercised.
 
     In August 1993, options to purchase 315,000 shares of common stock were
granted to the members of the Company's Board of Directors. The options were
granted at $3.20, which approximates the fair market value at the date of grant.
One-third of these options became exercisable at the date of grant and the
remaining options can be exercised in equal annual installments over a two-year
period. The options expire six years after the date of grant. During 1994,
25,000 shares were exercised.
 
     In January 1994, options to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock were
granted to a member of the Company's Board of Directors. The options were
granted at $7.375, which approximates the fair market value at the date of
grant. The options can be exercised in equal annual installments over a four
year period. The options expire six years after the date of grant.
 
     In August 1994, options to purchase 317,100 shares of common stock were
granted to employees under the Company's performance incentive plan. The options
were granted at $7.625, which approximates the fair market value at the date of
grant. Generally, options can be exercised during a participant's employment
with the Company in equal annual installments over a three-year period and
expire six years after the date of grant.
 
     In December 1994, options to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock were
granted to new members of the Company's Board of Directors. The options were
granted at $7.125, which approximates the fair market value at the date of
grant. One-third of these options became exercisable at the date of grant and
the remaining options can be exercised in equal annual installments over a two
year period. The options expire six years after the date of grant.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and
     Stockholders of Prime Hospitality Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Prime Hospitality
Corp. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries ("the Company") as of July 31,
1992 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity
and cash flows for the one month then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Prime Hospitality Corp. and
subsidiaries as of July 31, 1992 and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for the one month then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 7, the Company held an investment in a mortgage note
receivable from certain entities with a face value of $100,890,000 that is
valued at $25,000,000 at July 31, 1992. The realization of this investment is
dependent primarily on the ability of the Company to recover such amount
pursuant to the personal guarantees provided by two individuals who control the
entities that are the obligors under the mortgage note and own the hotel
properties that serve as the underlying collateral for the note. The Company has
commenced a legal action to recover pursuant to such guarantees; however, the
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this matter.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
     of Prime Motor Inns, Inc. (Debtor-in-Possession)

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Prime Motor Inns, Inc. and
Subsidiaries (Debtors-in-Possession) as of June 30, 1992, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficiency) and
cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Prime Motor Inns,
Inc. and Subsidiaries (Debtors-in-Possession) as of June 30, 1992, and their
results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 7, the Company held an investment in a mortgage note
receivable from certain entities with a face value of $100,890,000 that had been
written down to $30,000,000 at June 30, 1992. The realization of the carrying
value is dependent primarily on the ability of the Company to recover such
amount pursuant to the personal guarantees provided by the two individuals who
control the entities that are the obligors under the mortgage note and the
owners of the hotel properties that serve as the underlying collateral for the
loan. The Company has commenced a legal action to recover pursuant to such
guarantees; however, the outcome of this action is not presently determinable.

As discussed in Note 11, the Company has reflected pre-petition and certain
post-petition claims in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1992 as
liabilities subject to compromise based on its estimate of the aggregate amount
that will ultimately be allowable for settlement upon consummation of the plan
of reorganization;


                                      F-21

<PAGE>   77
however, the aggregate amount claimed by creditors is substantially in excess of
the liability recorded by the Company. The actual aggregate amount of allowable
pre and post-petition claims cannot presently be determined.

As discussed in Note 14, the Company and certain of its present and former
officers and directors are defendants in certain consolidated class action
complaints alleging federal securities law violations and other claims. The
ultimate outcome of such litigation cannot presently be determined.
        
The eventual outcome of the matters discussed in the three preceding paragraphs
is not presently determinable and the consolidated financial statements as of
June 30, 1992 and for the year then ended do not include any adjustments
relating to the resolution of those uncertainties.

As discussed in Note 2, the Company's plan of reorganization became effective on
July 31, 1992, and it will implement the guidance as to the accounting for
entities emerging from Chapter 11 set forth in Statement of Position 90-7,
"Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code"
("Fresh Start Reporting") as of that date. The Company has not presently
determined the amounts that will be recorded under Fresh Start Reporting.
However, the implementation of Fresh Start Reporting as a result of the
Company's emergence from Chapter 11 will materially change the amounts reported
in consolidated financial statements as of and for periods ending subsequent to
July 31, 1992. As a result of the reorganization and the implementation of Fresh
Start Reporting, assets and liabilities will be recorded at fair values and
outstanding obligations relating to the claims of creditors will be discharged
primarily in exchange for cash, new indebtedness and equity. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1992 and for the year then
ended do not give effect to any adjustments that will be made as a result of the
Company's reorganization and emergence from Chapter 11.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           JUNE 30 AND JULY 31, 1992                      

Note 1 - Reorganization and Emergence From Chapter 11

         Prime Hospitality Corp. became the successor corporation to 
Prime Motor Inns, Inc. on July 31, 1992.  As used herein, the "Company" 
refers to Prime Hospitality Corp. and subsidiaries, "PMI" refers to Prime
Motor Inns, Inc. and subsidiaries and "Prime Motor Inns" refers to Prime Motor
Inns, Inc., the parent company only.  The accompanying consolidated financial 
statements and notes thereto reflect the activities of the Company as of and
subsequent to July 31, 1992 and PMI prior to July 31, 1992.
                                                               
         On September 18, 1990, Prime Motor Inns (predecessor to and former
parent of the Company) and fifty of its subsidiaries (together with Prime Motor
Inns, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions under title 11 of the United
States Code ("Chapter 11") in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern
District of Florida, Miami Division (the "Bankruptcy Court") and began operating
as Debtors-In-Possession.

         On September 23, 1991, the Debtors filed their Joint Plan of
Reorganization. The Debtors filed their Disclosure Statement for Debtors'
Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization and their Amended Joint Plan of
Reorganization on November 15, 1991. These plans and the disclosure statement
were further amended and restated by the Disclosure Statement and the Second
Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of the Debtors dated January 16, 1992 (the
"Plan"). The Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on April 6, 1992.

         On July 31, 1992 (the "Effective Date"), the Debtors consummated the
Plan and emerged from bankruptcy. On the Effective Date, Prime Motor Inns merged
with and into the Company, which had been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prime
Motor Inns. The Company was the surviving corporation in the merger. In
addition, certain of the Debtors and other subsidiaries of Prime Motor Inns that
did not file petitions under Chapter 11 merged, consolidated or contributed
substantially all of their assets to the Company or subsidiaries of the Company.

         On the Effective Date, the Company assumed the obligations of each
combining Debtor under the Plan. The Company has distributed Secured Notes and
Restructured Notes and is in the process of distributing cash, Tax Notes, Common
Stock and Warrants in settlement of pre-petition claims and

interests as such claims and interests are processed and settled.

         The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has issued
Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization
Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), which provides guidance for financial
reporting by Chapter 11 debtors during and following their Chapter 11 cases. The
accompanying historical consolidated financial statements of PMI for the period
from September 18, 1990 to the Effective Date have been prepared in accordance
with SOP 90-7 on the following basis:

- -        Liabilities subject to compromise are segregated.
- -        Transactions and events directly associated with the reorganization
         proceedings are reported separately.
- -        Interest expense is reported only to the extent it will be paid.

         Also pursuant to SOP 90-7, the Company implemented Fresh Start
Reporting (hereinafter defined) upon the emergence of the Debtors from
bankruptcy as of the Effective Date (see Note 2).

Note 2 - Fresh Start Reporting

         SOP 90-7 provides for the implementation of Fresh Start Reporting upon
the emergence of debtors from bankruptcy if the reorganization value (the
approximate fair value) of the assets of the emerging entity immediately prior
to emergence is less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed
pre-petition claims, and if the holders of existing voting shares immediately
before the emergence from bankruptcy receive less than 50% of the voting shares
of the emerging entity. A Fresh Start balance sheet reflects assets at their
estimated fair value upon the emergence from bankruptcy and liabilities, other
than deferred taxes, at the present value of amounts to be paid determined at
appropriate current interest rates. The Company met the criteria for
implementation of, and implemented Fresh Start Reporting as of the Effective
Date.

         Under Fresh Start Reporting, the consolidated balance sheet as of July
31, 1992 became the opening consolidated balance sheet of the Company. Since
Fresh Start Reporting has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet as of July 31, 1992, this

                                 (CONTINUED)


consolidated balance sheet is not comparable in all material respects to any
such financial statements as of any prior date or for any period prior to July
31, 1992, since the consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 1992 is that of a
new entity.

         The estimated reorganization value (the approximate fair value) of the
assets of the emerging entity was determined by consideration of many factors
and various valuation methods, including discounted cash flows and
price/earnings and other applicable ratios believed by management to be
representative of the Company's business and industry.

         Reorganization liabilities, consisting of Tax Notes, Restructured and
Reinstated Notes, Senior Secured Notes and Junior Secured Notes distributed as
of the Effective Date, have been recorded based on face values, which
approximate the present values of amounts to be paid determined at appropriate
current interest rates. Common Stock has been valued at the excess of the fair
value of identifiable assets of the Company over the present value of
liabilities.

         Other current liabilities, consisting of those arising from
post-petition operating and other expenses not paid as of the Effective Date and
obligations arising from certain loans to finance construction, will be paid in
full under their original terms and have been presented in the following balance
sheet at their historical carrying values.

         The effects of consummating the Plan and implementing Fresh Start 
Reporting are set forth on PMI's historical consolidated balance sheet as of
July 31, 1992 as follows:

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         A summary of the significant accounting policies used by the Company
and PMI in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements
follows:

Business activities:
         The Company focuses on three types of business activities: operation of
         owned and leased hotel properties; management services provided to
         hotel properties owned by third parties; and management of its
         portfolio of mortgages, notes and other financial assets. The Company
         retains all the revenues and pays all the expenses with respect to the
         owned and leased hotel properties. The Company derives management fees
         from the hotel properties it manages based on a fixed percentage of
         gross revenues, fees for services rendered and performance-related
         incentive payments. The Company's portfolio of mortgages, notes and
         other assets primarily are associated with hotel properties currently
         managed or formerly owned by the Company and PMI.

         The majority of the Company's hotel properties are moderately priced
         hotels comprised of 100 to 150 rooms primarily located in the Northeast
         and Florida, which are designed to attract business and leisure
         travelers desiring quality accommodations at affordable prices. The
         Company operates or manages many of the restaurants and cocktail
         lounges at its full service hotels. Its limited service hotels, such as
         Wellesley Inns and AmeriSuites hotels, generally do not have
         restaurants or cocktail lounges.

         Most of the hotel properties are operated or managed by the Company in
         accordance with franchise agreements with national hotel chains,
         including Howard Johnson, Ramada, Marriott, Holiday Inn, Sheraton, Days
         Inn and Radisson. Additionally, the Company operates or manages the
         Wellesley hotel properties under its trademark "Wellesley Inns." The
         Company owns the trademark "AmeriSuites", and all of these hotel
         properties are managed for the Company by a related party.

Principles of consolidation:
         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of


                                      F-35


<PAGE>   91
                   PRIME HOSPITALITY CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                                 (CONTINUED)


         the Company and PMI and all of their majority-owned subsidiaries. All
         material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
         consolidation.

Cash equivalents:
         Cash equivalents are highly liquid unrestricted investments with a
         maturity of three months or less when acquired.

Restricted cash:
         Restricted cash consists primarily of highly liquid investments that
         serve as collateral for debt obligations included in liabilities
         subject to compromise and is classified as either short-term or
         long-term depending on the date the obligation is due.

Mortgages and other notes receivable:
         Mortgages and other notes receivable are reflected at the lower of face
         or market value at July 31, 1992. Generally, the carrying amount of the
         portfolio of mortgages and other notes receivable is reduced through
         write-offs and by maintaining an aggregate loan valuation reserve at a
         level that, in the opinion of management, is adequate to absorb
         potential losses in the portfolio. To determine the appropriate level
         for the loan valuation reserve, management evaluates various factors
         including: general and regional economic conditions; the credit
         worthiness of the borrower; the nature and level of any delinquencies
         in the payment of principal or interest; and the adequacy of the
         collateral. Interest on delinquent loans (including impaired loans that
         have required writedowns or specific reserves) is only recognized when
         cash is received. The amount of interest income recognized on mortgages
         and other notes receivable is generally based on the loan's effective
         interest rate and adjusted carrying value of the note.

Property, equipment and leasehold improvements:
         Property, equipment and leasehold improvements that the Company intends
         to continue to operate are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
         and amortization at June 30, 1992 and at fair market value a of 
         July 31, 1992. Provision is made for depreciation and amortization
         using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
         assets.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (CONTINUED)


         The Company intends to sell or otherwise dispose of those remaining
         operating and non-operating properties that have generated losses or
         insufficient returns on investment. Properties identified for disposal
         are stated at their estimated net realizable value through valuation
         reserves or writedowns.

Income recognition on property sales and deferred income:
         Income is generally recognized when properties used in the hotel
         business are sold. However, income is deferred and recognized under
         installment or other appropriate methods when collectibility of the
         sales price is not reasonably assured or other criteria for immediate
         profit recognition under generally accepted accounting principles are
         not satisfied. Gains from sales of properties under sale and leaseback
         transactions that are generally deferred pursuant to applicable
         accounting rules are amortized over the lives of the related leases.
         Gains from sales of properties and certain other assets acquired
         through business combinations accounted for as purchases are generally
         offset against the carrying value of the remaining purchased assets if
         the sale takes place within the allocation period (generally a period
         of one year or less) following the purchase.

Construction income recognition and deferred income:
         Revenues under long-term construction contracts are generally
         recognized under the percentage-of-completion method and include a
         portion of the earnings expected to be realized on the contract in the
         ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs. Under certain
         circumstances, the recognition of income is deferred until continuing
         involvement, in the form of operating guarantees made to the owners of
         the hotel property subject to the contract, has expired.

Income taxes:
         The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax
         return. PMI adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("FAS 109"), "Accounting for
         Income Taxes, " by applying FAS 109 to its consolidated financial
         statements commencing July 1, 1991. Adoption of FAS 109 did

                                 (CONTINUED)


         not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
         Deferred taxes have not been provided as of June 30, 1992 and July 31,
         1992 due to the availability of significant net operating loss
         carryforwards and the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate realization
         of the future benefits, if any, to be derived from the temporary
         differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of
         assets and liabilities.

Income (loss) per common share:
         Primary net income (loss) per common share is computed based on the
         weighted-average number of common shares and common share equivalents
         (stock options) outstanding during each year. The weighted-average
         number of common shares and common share equivalents used in computing
         primary net income (loss) per share was 33,028,000 for the year ended
         June 30, 1992 and the month ended July 31, 1992. Fully diluted net
         income (loss) per common share includes, when dilutive, the effects of
         the elimination of interest expense and the issuance of additional
         common shares from the assumed conversion of the 6-5/8% convertible
         subordinated debentures due 2011 and the 7% convertible subordinated
         debentures due 2013 (collectively, the "Debentures"). The Debentures
         are included in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1992 as
         liabilities subject to compromise. The effects of assuming the
         conversion of the Debentures were not dilutive for the year ended
         June 30, 1992 and the one month ended July 31, 1992.

Reclassifications:
         Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial
         statements to conform them to the July 31, 1992 classifications.

Note 4 - Acquisitions and Dispositions

         In December 1989, PMI consummated its agreement with New World
Development Co. Ltd. ("New World") to participate with and assist New World in
its acquisition of the hotel business of Ramada, Inc. ("Ramada"). Under the
agreement, PMI loaned approximately $58,000,000 to New World (see Note 7) and
acquired certain real estate, notes receivable, the Rodeway International
Franchise System ("Rodeway") and certain other assets, and assumed certain


                                      F-38

liabilities, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $54,000,000 plus
closing adjustments. Such assets were sold in fiscal 1991. PMI entered into a
license agreement to operate the domestic Ramada franchise system and agreed to
indemnify New World for certain potential tax liabilities associated with the
license. The potential tax liabilities to New World, and all other claims by New
World and PMI against each other, were settled on August 4, 1992 (see Note 7).

(a)      The mortgage notes are secured by the Frenchman's Reef resort hotel,
         which is managed by the Company, and consist of first and second
         mortgages with face values of $53,383,000 and $25,613,000,
         respectively, with final scheduled principal payments of $51,976,000
         and $25,613,000 due on July 31, 1995. The notes bear interest at a
         stated rate of 13%. Interest and principal payments on the first
         mortgage are payable in monthly installments. Interest and scheduled
         principal payments on the second mortgage note are payable only to the
         extent of available cash flow, as defined, with any unpaid interest due
         at maturity. Based on a valuation of the property, PMI wrote down the
         second mortgage to $11,400,000 as of June 30, 1990 and discontinued the
         accrual of interest. As a result of the continuing decline in economic
         conditions and operating cash flows, the balance of the second mortgage
         was written off in fiscal 1992. In connection with the adoption of
         Fresh Start Reporting at July 31, 1992, the Company has valued these
         notes at $50,000,000.

         During the one month ended July 31, 1992, the Company recognized
         $345,000 of interest income on these notes (an effective rate of
         approximately 8.3%), based on the current levels of cash flows
         generated from the property available to service the notes. The Company
         is in the process of renegotiating the terms of these notes based on
         the current

         level of cash flow generated by the property.

(b)      From 1988 through 1990, PMI loaned entities controlled by Allan Rose
         and Arthur Cohen (the "Rose and Cohen entities"), who at such time were
         significant Howard Johnson franchisees, an aggregate of $100,890,000
         fully secured initially by property and/or personal guarantees. PMI was
         committed to make additional loans, also on a fully secured basis, to
         the Rose and Cohen entities of up to an aggregate of $130,000,000 if
         values of, and/or revenues generated by, certain hotel properties
         controlled by the Rose and Cohen entities attained specified levels.
         PMI was to receive a minimum annual return of 10% on all loans made to
         the Rose and Cohen entities and a maximum return of 20%. All loans and
         unpaid interest are payable on December 31, 1997.

         Due to the decline in value of the hotel properties pledged as
         collateral for the loan and the continuing decline in the hotel real
         estate market, PMI discontinued funding additional loans in fiscal
         1990. Further, based on PMI's estimate of the value of the collateral
         and the personal guarantees of Rose and Cohen and discussions related
         to the possible early payment of the loan, PMI wrote down the loan to
         $50,000,000 as of June 30, 1990 and discontinued the accrual of
         interest.

         In 1992, certain of the Rose and Cohen entities owning a portion of
         the collateral that secures the loans filed for Chapter 11 protection
         in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York.
         Also during 1992, the Company commenced an adversary proceeding
         against Rose and Cohen. The complaint seeks to recover jointly and
         severally on the personal guarantees of $50,000,000 given by Rose and
         Cohen as part of the loan agreement. As a result of further evaluation
         of the collateral and the personal guarantees, PMI wrote down the loan
         to $30,000,000 as of June 30, 1992 and $25,000,000 as of July 31,
         1992.
        
(c)      In April 1989, PMI loaned FCD Hospitality, Inc. ("FCD"), an
         unaffiliated company, approximately $74,000,000 in cash for the purpose
         of financing FCD's acquisition of the outstanding common stock of
         Servico, Inc. ("Servico"), an operator of hotels. The loan was secured
         by the common stock of Servico,

         FCD and certain FCD affiliates, and was originally due prior to June
         30, 1990. Interest was due at the prime rate plus 1%. PMI also entered
         into an agreement with FCD pursuant to which PMI would provide
         management consulting services for approximately $63,000,000 through
         June 1990. Additionally, in April 1989, PMI purchased approximately
         $80,000,000 of Servico's outstanding 12-1/4% subordinated notes due
         April 15, 1997 for approximately $64,000,000 (80% of par value).

         Subsequent to April 1989, PMI entered into certain other transactions
         including working capital loans and the sale of certain hotels to
         Servico. Servico also pledged a substantial portion of its hotel
         properties and mortgage notes receivable on hotel properties as
         collateral and/or in satisfaction of its commitments on the loan to FCD
         and the consulting agreement.

         On September 18, 1990, Servico and certain of its subsidiaries filed
         for Chapter 11 protection. After an extensive valuation and recovery
         analysis performed by PMI and Servico, PMI agreed to settle all claims
         and disputes with Servico and FCD in June 1991. Under the terms of the
         agreement, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the FCD loan,
         the subordinated notes, loans related to sales of properties and
         working capital and all accrued interest relating to these notes and
         loans with a face value of $166,210,000 were forgiven. As part of the
         settlement, PMI retained ownership of certain mortgage notes receivable
         with a face value of approximately $30,000,000 that are secured by
         three hotel properties. The entity that owns one of the properties
         filed a voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the United States
         Bankruptcy Code in December 1990. Subsequent to July 31, 1992, the
         Company has restructured the note receivable to receive payments based
         on the property's available cash flow.

         Based on the valuation of the mortgage notes on the three properties,
         PMI wrote down the FCD Loan and Servico notes to $16,757,000 as of June
         30, 1990 and discontinued the accrual of interest. In connection with
         the adoption of Fresh Start Reporting, the Company has valued the notes
         at $19,756,000 at July 31, 1992.

(d)      In connection with the Ramada acquisition in December 1989, PMI agreed
         to loan New World $58,000,000 (see Note 4). Interest was payable
         quarterly at a rate of 11%. Principal was to be paid in installments
         beginning in 1995 with a final scheduled payment of $55,499,000 due on
         March 31, 2005. On August 4, 1992, after extensive negotiation and
         approval of a settlement by the Bankruptcy Court, the Company collected
         net proceeds of $42,000,000 plus accrued interest in full satisfaction
         of the $58,000,000 loan balance offset by liabilities subject to
         compromise related to the Ramada acquisition with a net carrying value
         of $16,000,000. The net proceeds were used to prepay a portion of the
         Senior Secured Notes issued on the Effective Date.

(e)      At July 31, 1992, the Company held mortgages and other notes receivable
         secured by 33 hotel properties operated by the Company under management
         or lease agreements. These notes currently bear interest at rates
         ranging from 8.5% to 14% and mature through 2014.

         The mortgages were primarily derived from the sales of hotel
         properties. Many of these properties had been unable to pay in full the
         annual debt service required under the terms of the original mortgages.
         The Company has restructured $33,530,000 of these mortgages to receive
         the majority of available cash and to receive a participation in the
         future excess cash flow of such hotel properties. The Company is also
         in process of restructuring another $9,500,000 of these mortgages.

(f)      Other notes receivable bear interest at effective rates ranging from 8%
         to 12%, mature through 2001 and are secured primarily by hotel
         properties.

         Property,  equipment and leasehold  improvements  consist of the
following and are stated at cost (other than  properties held for sale) at June

Note 11 - Liabilities Subject to Compromise

         As a result of the Chapter 11 filing (see Note 1), enforcement of
certain unsecured claims against the Debtors in existence prior to the petition
date were stayed while the Debtors continued business operations as
debtors-in-possession. These claims are reflected in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 1992, as liabilities subject to
compromise. Additional unsecured claims classified as liabilities subject to
compromise arose subsequent to the Petition Date resulting from rejection of
executory contracts, including lease, management and franchise agreements, and
from the determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or agreements by the parties in
interest) to allow claims for contingencies and other disputed amounts.
Enforcement of claims secured against the Debtors' assets ("secured claims")
were also stayed although the holders of such claims have the right to move the
Court for relief from the stay. Secured claims are secured primarily by liens on
the Debtors' property, equipment and leasehold improvements and certain
mortgages and other notes receivable.

         Creditors have asserted pre- and post-petition claims against the
Debtors alleging liabilities of approximately $9 billion plus unliquidated
amounts. The Company projects that the claims asserted against the Debtors will
be resolved and reduced to an amount that approximates PMI's estimate of
$706,250,000 recognized as liabilities subject to compromise as of June 30,
1992. PMI has filed motions objecting to those claims that are: (a) duplicative;
(b) superseded by amended claims; (c) erroneously asserted against multiple
Debtors; (d) not obligations of any of the Debtors; or (e) filed after the Bar
Date (as hereinafter defined). Additionally, PMI otherwise has disputed a
substantial number of the claims asserted against the Debtors and has filed
objections to such claims. The Bankruptcy Court established May 15, 1991 (the
"Bar Date") as the deadline for filing proofs of claim, except certain specified
claims, against the Debtors.

         A significant number of the bankruptcy claims have been resolved. As of
March 1, 1993, unresolved bankruptcy claims of approximately $1 billion have
been asserted against PMI.

                                  (CONTINUED)


Approximately $767 million of these unresolved claims were filed by entities
controlled by Allan Rose and Arthur Cohen (see Note 7).

         The Company has disputed a substantial number of these unresolved
bankruptcy claims and has filed objections to such claims. In addition, a number
of these claims have been resolved with the claimant and are awaiting approval
by the Bankruptcy Court.

         The Company believes that substantially all of these claims will be
dismissed, disallowed or deemed paid pursuant to the Plan and estimates that
unresolved bankruptcy claims will be allowed in the amount of approximately $27
million. These claims will be settled as follows: claims of $18 million will be
satisfied through the issuance of Secured Notes, Restructured Notes and Tax
Notes; claims of $8 million will be satisfied through the distribution of the
Company's Common Stock; and claims of $1 million will be satisfied through cash
payments.

         In accordance with SOP 90-7, the July 31, 1992 consolidated financial
statements have given full effect to the issuance of these Secured Notes,
Restructured Notes and Tax Notes and the distribution of the Company's Common
Stock. Liabilities have been provided for the anticipated cash payments.

          PMI's liabilities subject to compromise, stated at management's
estimate of the total amount of allowed claims and not at the amounts for which
claims will be settled, consist of the following (in thousands):

         The amounts listed above may be subject to future adjustments depending
on further developments with respect to disputes or unresolved claims.
Information as to the terms of the settlement of liabilities subject to
compromise under the Plan as of or subsequent to the Effective Date through the
distribution of cash, new indebtedness, new equity securities and/or offset
against certain assets reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
is set forth in Note 2.

         PMI discontinued accruing interest on certain debt obligations as of
the date such obligations were determined to be subject to compromise.
Contractual interest not accrued and not reflected as an expense in the
consolidated statements of operations, as a result of the Debtors' Chapter 11
filing, amounted to approximately $28,000,000 for the year ended June 30,
1992 and $2,300,000 for the one month ended July 31, 1992. Total contractual
interest is disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Note  12 - Long-term Debt

         As a result of the Chapter 11 filing (see Notes 1 and 11), all
long-term obligations of the Debtors in existence prior to the Petition Date
were stayed and have been classified as liabilities subject to compromise at
June 30, 1992. Long-term debt consists of the following (in thousands):

(a)      Pursuant to the Plan,  the Company  issued two classes of Secured
         Notes which are  identified  as "Senior  Secured  Notes" and "Junior 
         Secured  Notes".  Senior Secured Notes were issued in two series of
         notes which are  identified as the "8.20% Fixed Rate Senior Secured 
         Notes" and the  "Adjustable  Rate Senior Secured Notes" (collectively, 
         the "Senior Secured  Notes").  Each series is identical except that
         the interest rate on the Adjustable Rate Senior Secured Notes will be
         periodically  adjusted to one-half of one percent over the daily
         "prime rate" reported by Chemical Bank,  with a maximum  interest rate
         of 10.0% per annum.  The aggregate  principal  amount of Senior 
         Secured  Notes issued under the Plan was  $91,300,000,  comprised of 
         $30,100,000  of 8.20% Fixed Rate Secured Notes and $61,200,000 of
         Adjustable Rate Senior Notes.  On August 11, 1992, the Company 
         prepaid  $17,900,000 of the 8.20% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes and
         $36,400,000 of the Adjustable  Rate Senior Secured Notes from the
         proceeds of  collections of portions of the collateral for the Senior
         Secured Notes.  The prepaid  amounts of $54,300,000 have been 
         classified as current at July 31, 1992.
        
         The other class of Secured Notes issued to satisfy claims was comprised
         of Junior Secured Notes that bear interest at a rate of 9.20% per annum
         and will mature on July 31, 2000. The aggregate principal amount of
         Junior Secured Notes issued

         under the Plan was $70,000,000.

         The collateral for the Secured Notes consists primarily of mortgages
         and other notes receivable and real property (the "Secured Note
         Collateral") with a book value of $143,191,000 as of July 31, 1992.

         Interest on the Secured Notes is payable semi-annually commencing
         January 31, 1993. The Secured Notes require that 85% of the cash
         proceeds from the Secured Note Collateral be applied first to interest,
         second to prepayment of the Senior Secured Notes and third to
         prepayment of the Junior Secured Notes. Any remaining principal balance
         of the Senior Secured Notes is due July 31, 1997. Aggregate principal
         payments on the Junior Secured Notes are required in order that
         one-third of the principal balance outstanding on December 31, 1996 is
         paid by July 31, 1998; two-thirds of that balance is paid by July 31,
         1999; and all of that balance is paid by July 31, 2000. To the extent
         the cash proceeds from the Secured Note Collateral are insufficient to
         pay interest or required principal payments on the Secured Notes, the
         Company will be obligated to pay any deficiency out of its general
         corporate funds.

         The Secured Notes contain covenants which, among other things, require
         the Company to maintain a net worth of at least $100,000,000, limit
         expenditures related to the development of hotel properties through
         December 31, 1996 and preclude cash distributions to stockholders,
         including dividends and redemptions, until the Secured Notes have been
         paid in full.

         During March 1993, the Company repurchased $9,500,000 of the Junior
         Secured Notes for a purchase price of $7,400,000. The repurchase
         resulted in an extraordinary gain of $2,100,000, which will be
         reflected in the Company's first quarter 1993 consolidated financial
         statements. These notes have been classified as long-term debt at July

         and provides for annual payments of principal and interest until
         maturity on July 31, 1998. Such payments will be made in equal
         principal installments, plus simple interest from July 31, 1992 at the
         rate of 8.20% per annum, with payments to commence on July 31, 1993 and
         with additional payments to be made on each July 31 thereafter.

(c)      The Company has $20,734,000 of restructured notes issued to holders of
         oversecured and undersecured bankruptcy claims. Each restructured note
         matures on July 31, 2002 and is secured by a lien on the collateral
         which secured the underlying claim prior to bankruptcy. The notes are
         secured by mortgage notes receivable and hotel properties with a book
         value of $16,981,000 at July 31, 1992.

         The oversecured restructured notes bear interest at a rate of 9.20% per
         annum payable semi-annually in cash. Prior to maturity, principal
         amounts outstanding will be paid semi-annually based on a thirty-year
         amortization schedule. The Company has approximately $7,173,000 of
         these notes outstanding at July 31, 1992.

         During January 1993, the Company repurchased $1,700,000 of the
         oversecured restructured notes for a purchase price of $1,300,000. The
         repurchase resulted in an extraordinary gain of $400,000, which will be
         reflected in the Company's first quarter 1993 consolidated financial
         statements. These notes have been classified as current at July 31,
         1992.

         The undersecured restructured notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per
         annum with interest payable semi-annually in cash. Semi-annual
         principal payments begin on July 31, 1996 based on a thirty-year
         amortization schedule. The Company has approximately $13,561,000 of
         these notes outstanding at July 31, 1992.

         The Company has other mortgage notes and bonds payable of approximately
         $73,905,000 which are due through April 1, 2008 and bear interest at
         rates ranging from 4.68% to 10.5% at July 31, 1992. The notes are
         secured by mortgage notes receivable and hotel properties with a book
         value of $83,577,000 at July 31, 1992.

(d)      Construction financing obligations primarily consist of two loans
         payable to banks with an aggregate balance of $5,193,000 and a loan
         payable to ShoLodge of $3,570,000 at July 31, 1992. The loans payable
         to banks are secured by mortgages on two hotel properties with a book
         value of $13,963,000 at July 31, 1992. Principal is payable in monthly
         installments with the balances due by June 1994. Interest is payable
         monthly at the prime rate plus 2%. The loan payable to ShoLodge is
         secured by a hotel with a book value of $7,670,000 at July 31, 1992.
         Principal is payable in September 1993. Interest is payable monthly at
         the prime rate plus 2% (see Note 21).

(e)      At June 30, 1992, PMI's 6-5/8% convertible subordinated debentures due
         2011 and 7% convertible subordinated debentures due 2013 were
         convertible at any time prior to maturity into common stock at $40.568
         per share and $43.95 per share, respectively, and 5,451,342 shares of
         common stock were reserved for issuance upon such conversion. Sinking
         fund payments of $5,750,000 annually were required commencing April 1,
         1997 for the 6-5/8% Debentures and June 1, 1999 for the 7% Debentures.
         All Debentures were subordinated to all existing and future senior
         indebtedness of PMI.

(f)      In April 1989, PMI borrowed approximately $140,000,000 from Morgan Bank
         pursuant to a demand note (the "Morgan Loan") with interest at the
         prime rate. The note was secured by the notes receivable from FCD and
         Servico and certain other assets.

         In September 1989, PMI entered into a $263,000,000 secured bank credit
         agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), expiring March 1991, in which
         borrowings (the "Bank Group Loan") were fully utilized by December
         1989. Borrowings bear interest at the prime rate plus 1/2%. The
         borrowings were principally incurred to extinguish the Morgan Loan
         issued in connection with the Servico transaction ("Tranche A") and to
         finance PMI's portion of the Ramada acquisition ("Tranche B"). The Bank
         Group Loan was secured by the notes receivable from FCD and Servico,
         the net assets and common stock of subsidiaries acquired in the Ramada
         acquisition, the New World note, certain other mortgage notes
         receivable and certain other assets.

         In March 1990, PMI prepaid $1,000,000 of the Bank Group Loan with the
         proceeds of previously pledged mortgage notes receivable.

         In May 1990, PMI prepaid $40,000,000 of the Bank Group Loan from
         proceeds from the collection of a receivable related to the sale of a
         hotel property in fiscal 1989. In June 1990, PMI prepaid $1,000,000 of
         the Bank Group Loan with the proceeds of certain previously pledged
         mortgage notes receivable.

         In July 1990, PMI prepaid approximately $171,200,000 of the Bank Group
         Loan from the proceeds of the sale of the Howard Johnson, Ramada and
         Rodeway franchise businesses. In July 1990, the Credit Agreement was
         amended to convert $60,000,000 of $65,000,000 of unsecured demand loans
         then outstanding, which had been borrowed in fiscal 1990 to fund
         construction, into secured term loans ("Tranche C"). In addition,
         certain unsecured letter of credit reimbursement obligations were
         converted into Tranche C secured obligations. PMI also pledged
         additional collateral and certain then-existing defaults under the Bank
         Credit Agreement were waived.

         In July 1990, PMI paid the remaining $5,000,000 of unsecured demand
         notes then outstanding.

(g)      Other mortgage notes and bonds payable consist of debt secured by
         properties operated by PMI or notes receivable held by PMI. Principal
         is due in installments through 2009. Interest rates are generally
         variable ranging from 5% to 15% at June 30, 1992.

(h)      Other debt as of June 30, 1992 consists of an unsecured note bearing

Note 13 -  Lease Commitments

         The Company leases various hotels under lease agreements with initial
terms expiring at various dates from 1998 through 2019. The Company has options
to renew certain of the leases for periods ranging from 1 to 94 years. Rental
payments are based on minimum rentals plus a percentage of the hotel's revenues
in excess of stipulated amounts. As a result of the Chapter 11 filing, all lease
contracts were reviewed during 1991 and a determination was made as to whether
to accept or reject these contracts. The commitments shown below reflect those
lease contracts which the Company has assumed.

         The following is a schedule by year of future minimum lease payments
required under the remaining operating leases for core properties that have
terms in excess of one year as of July 31, 1992 (in thousands):

Note 14 -  Contingencies

         PMI and certain of its present and former officers and directors were
named as defendants in purported class action lawsuits on behalf of purchasers
of PMI's common stock and debentures. The lawsuits allege that PMI made
materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding its financial
condition in violation of Federal securities laws and other claims. A settlement
was consummated in February 1993 which was funded through insurance proceeds.

         The Company has responded to informal requests for information by the
Staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of
Enforcement relating to a number of significant transactions of PMI for the
years 1985 through 1991. However, no formal allegations have been made by the
Staff.

         In addition to the foregoing legal proceedings, the Company is involved
in various other proceedings incidental to the normal course of its business.

         The Company believes that the resolutions of these contingencies will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

         No Federal income tax was payable at July 31, 1992 due primarily to the
utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

         At July 31, 1992, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $347,000,000 for Federal income tax purposes. Such tax net
operating loss carryforwards, if not used as offsets to future taxable income,
will expire beginning in 2005 and continuing through 2007. The amount of net
operating loss carryforwards available for future utilization is limited to

$130,500,000 during the carryforward period as a result of the change in
ownership of the Company upon consummation of the Plan.

         In accordance with FAS 109, the Company has not recognized the future
tax benefits associated with the net operating loss carryforwards or with other
temporary differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation
allowance of approximately $44,000,000 against the deferred tax assets as of
June 30, 1992 and July 31, 1992. To the extent any available carryforwards or
other benefits are utilized in periods subsequent to July 31, 1992, the tax
benefit realized will be treated as a contribution to stockholders' equity and
will have no effect on the income tax provision for financial reporting
purposes.

         PMI's Federal income tax returns for the years 1987 through 1991 are
currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company does
not believe there will be any material adverse effects on the consolidated
financial statements as a result of this examination.

Note 18 -  Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents

         Pursuant to the Plan, on July 31, 1992, the Company began distributing
33,000,000 shares of Common Stock to certain claimants and holders of PMI stock.
At March 2, 1993, 22,623,100 shares of Common Stock were distributed. The
remaining shares are to be distributed semi-annually to holders of previously
allowed claims and pending final resolution of disputed claims (see Note 11). In
addition, holders of PMI stock will receive Warrants to purchase Common Stock
exercisable into an aggregate of approximately 2,100,000 shares at an exercise
price equal to the average per share daily closing price during the year ending
July 31, 1993.

         On July 31, 1992, the Company adopted a stock option plan under which
options to purchase up to 1,320,000 shares of Common Stock may be granted to
directors, officers or key employees under terms determined by the Board of
Directors. During 1992, options to purchase 350,000 shares were granted to
officers and directors none of which are exercisable at July 31, 1992. In
addition, options to purchase 330,000 shares were granted to a former officer.
Such options are currently exercisable and expire on July 31, 1995. The exercise
prices of the above options are dependent

on the average market price one year from the date of grant and are, therefore,
currently undeterminable.

         On July 31, 1992, the Company adopted a performance incentive plan
under which stock options covering an additional 330,000 shares of Common Stock
were reserved for grants to key employees at the discretion of management. No
options have been issued under this plan.

         PMI had an employee incentive stock option plan which provided for
grants of stock options covering an aggregate of 3,520,000 shares of common
stock to officers and key employees. Under the terms of the plan, which expired
on November 23, 1991, options were granted at a price not less than 100% of fair
market value on the date of grant. Options generally were exercisable in
cumulative installments of 33-1/3% after the option has been outstanding 18, 32
and 46 months from the date of grant and expired five years after the date of
grant.

(a)      During 1990, PMI sold eight hotel properties to partnerships controlled
         by former officers and/or directors for aggregate consideration of
         $52,500,000 resulting in deferred gains of $4,000,000. The Company held
         mortgages and other notes receivable with a face value of $44,992,000
         at July 31, 1992, which arose primarily from those hotel sales. The
         mortgages mature through 2005 and bear interest at rates ranging from
         9.5% to 12.5%. At July 31, 1992, the carrying value of those mortgages
         was reduced to $6,081,000. The income amounts shown above primarily
         include transactions related to these properties.

(b)      In 1991, PMI entered into an agreement with ShoLodge, whereby Sholodge
         was appointed the exclusive agent to develop and manage certain hotel
         properties. Six hotels have been developed and opened to date.
         Development fees earned by ShoLodge of $586,000 and $-0- have been
         capitalized into property, equipment and leasehold improvements for the
         year ended June 1992 and the one month ended July 1992, respectively.
         The Company has demand notes and loans payable to ShoLodge of 
         $2,706,000 and $3,570,000, respectively, at July 31, 1992 concerning
         the development of hotels.

         Effective June 1992, the Company commenced using the ShoLodge
         reservation system for its Wellesley and AmeriSuite hotels.

ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
     Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") empowers a
Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the
fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. A
corporation may, in advance of the final disposition of any civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, pay the expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by any officer, director, employee or agent
in defending such action, provided that the director or officer undertake to
repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not
entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. A corporation may indemnify such
person against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
 
     A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by
or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor under the
same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial
approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.
Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the
defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or
her against the expenses (including attorneys' fees) which he or she actually
and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. The indemnification provided is
not deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which an officer or director
may be entitled under any corporation's by-law, agreement, vote or otherwise.
 
     In accordance with Section 145 of the DGCL, Article 8 of the Company's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Restated Certificate") and the
Company's By-Laws (the "By-Laws") provide that the Company shall indemnify to
the fullest extent permitted under and in accordance with the laws of the State
of Delaware any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that he
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was
serving at the request
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>   121
 
of the Company as director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of or in any
other capacity with another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in
a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests
of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The indemnification
provided by the Restated Certificate and the By-Laws shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which any of those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any other contract or agreement
between the Company and any officer, director, employee or agent of the Company.
Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding
shall (in the case of any action, suit or proceeding against a director of the
Company) or may (in the case of any action, suit or proceeding against an
officer, trustee, employee or agent) be paid by the Company in advance of the
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the Board
of Directors of the Company upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the indemnified person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. Subparagraph (d) of
Article 8 of the Restated Certificate provides that neither the amendment or
repeal of, nor the adoption of any provision inconsistent with, the
above-referenced provisions of the Restated Certificate shall eliminate or
reduce the effect of such provisions in respect of any matter occurring before
such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision or in respect of
any cause of action, suit or claim relating to any such matter which would have
given rise to a right of indemnification or right to receive expenses pursuant
to such provisions if any such provision had not been so amended or repealed or
if a provision inconsistent therewith had not been so adopted. Subparagraph (e)
of Article 8 of the Restated Certificate provides that a director of the Company
shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for
any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders,
(ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL or
any amendment thereto or successor provision thereto, or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the
DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting
the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the
Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the
DGCL as so amended.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
 
     (1) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to its Certificate, By-laws, the Underwriting Agreement or
otherwise, the Registrant had been advised that, in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
     (2) The Registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
          (a) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
     Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
     this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
     form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
     (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the
     Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
          (b) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
     Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
     be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
     offered therein, and this Offering of such securities at that time shall be
     deemed to be the initial bona fide Offering thereof.

                            PRIME HOSPITALITY CORP.
                  ___% CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTE DUE 2002


                 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the
Company designated as its   % Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2002 (herein
called the "Notes"), limited in aggregate principal amount to $75,000,000
(subject to increase as provided in the Indenture up to $86,250,000 aggregate
principal amount), issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of
          , 1995 (herein called the "Indenture"), between the Company and Bank
One, Columbus, N.A. as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of
the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered.

                 Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the
Indenture, the Holder of this Note is entitled, at his option, at any time on
or before the close of business on April 15, 2002, or in case this Note or a
portion hereof is called for redemption or submitted for repurchase upon the
occurrence of a Risk Event, then in respect of this Note or such portion hereof
until and including, but (unless the Company defaults in making the payment due
upon redemption or repurchase, as the case may be) not after, the close of
business on the last Trading Day prior to the Redemption Date or Repurchase
Date, respectively, to convert this Note (or any portion of the principal
amount hereof which is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof), at the
principal amount hereof, or such portion, into fully paid and nonassessable
shares (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100 of a share) of
Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to $      aggregate
principal amount of Notes for each share of Common Stock (or at the current
adjusted conversion price if an adjustment has been made as provided in the
Indenture) by surrender of this Note, duly endorsed or assigned to the Company
or in blank, to the Company at its office or agency maintained for that purpose
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the Corporate Trust
Office, accompanied by written notice to the Company in the form provided in
this Note (or such other notice as is acceptable to the Company) that the
Holder hereof elects to convert this Note, or if less than the entire principal
amount hereof is to be converted, the portion hereof to be converted, and,
in case such surrender shall be made during the period from the close of
business on any Regular Record Date next preceding any Interest Payment Date to
the opening of business on such Interest Payment Date (unless this Note or the
portion thereof being converted has been called for redemption on a Redemption
Date within such period), also accompanied by payment in New York Clearing
House or other funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the
interest payable on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of this
Note then being converted.  Subject to the aforesaid requirement for payment
and, in the case of a conversion after the Regular Record Date next preceding
any Interest Payment Date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, to the
right of the Holder of this Note (or any Predecessor Note) of record at such
Regular Record Date to receive an installment of interest (with certain
exceptions provided in the Indenture), no payment or adjustment is to be made
on conversion for interest accrued hereon or for dividends on the Common Stock
issued on conversion.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares will be issued on conversion, but instead of any fractional share the
Company shall pay a cash adjustment as provided in the Indenture.  The
conversion price is subject to adjustment as provide in the Indenture.  In
addition, the Indenture provides that in case of certain reclassifications,
consolidations or mergers to which the Company is a party or the sale or
transfer of substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Indenture shall
be amended, without the consent of any Holders of Notes, so that this Note, if
then outstanding, will be convertible thereafter, during the period this Note
shall be convertible as specified above, only into the kind and amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon the reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale or transfer by a holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior
to such consolidation, merger or transfer (assuming such holder of Common Stock
failed to exercise any rights of election and received per share the kind and
amount received per share by a plurality of non-electing shares).

                 The Notes are subject to redemption upon not less than fifteen
(15) nor more than sixty (60) days' notice by mail, at any time on or after
April 17, 1998, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at the
following Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal
amount):

<TABLE>

                 2001 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .             %
</TABLE>

If redeemed during the twelve (12) month period beginning April 15 (or April
17, in the case of 1998) of the years indicated, and at maturity at 100% of
principal, together in the case of any such redemption with accrued interest to
the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or
prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or
one or more Predecessor Notes, of record at the close of business on the
relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the
Indenture.

                 The Indenture provides that if a Risk Event (as defined
therein) occurs, each Holder of Notes shall have the right, in accordance with
the provisions of the Indenture, to require the Company to repurchase all of
such Holder's Notes, or any portion thereof that is an integral multiple of
$1,000, for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes
to be repurchased together with accrued interest to the Repurchase Date.

                 In the event of redemption, conversion or repurchase of this
Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the portion hereof not redeemed,
converted or repurchased will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon
the cancellation hereof.

                 The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent
provided in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the
prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Note is issued
subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto.  Each Holder
of this Note, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such
provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so
provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such
purposes.

                 If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the
principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and
with the effect provided in the Indenture.

                 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein
provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the
Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
at the time Outstanding.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the
Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at
the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive
compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or
waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

                 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed or to convert this Note as provided in the
Indenture.

                 Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

                 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the
Note Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the Corporate Trust Office, duly endorsed
by or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to
the Company and the Note Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, in each case, with an appropriate
signature guarantee, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to
the designated transferee or transferees.

                 The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons
in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.  As provided in
the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are
exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a different
authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

                 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith
(except as provided in the Indenture).

                 Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof
for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal,
premium, if any, or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon,
or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or
any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder,
officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or any
successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule
of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all
such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration
for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

                 All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Prime Hospitality Corp. (the "Company") has requested our opinion in connection
with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement")
relating to (i) the Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2002 of the Company (the
"Notes") and (ii) the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the
Company, issuable upon conversion of the Notes (the "Shares"). The Notes will
be issued under an Indenture (the "Indenture") to be entered into by the
Company and Bank One, Columbus, N.A., National Association, as Trustee, (the
"Trustee") and sold pursuant to the terms of an underwriting agreement to be
executed by and among Montgomery Securities and Smith Barney Inc. (the
"Underwriters").

We have examined copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the
Company, the Registration Statement, all resolutions adopted by the Company's
Board of Directors and other records and documents that we have deemed
necessary for the purpose of this opinion. We have also examined such other
documents, papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary to form
a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the
conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us. As to various
questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on statements and
certificates of officers and representatives of the Company and public
officials. In rendering this opinion, we have also assumed that there will be
no changes in applicable law or facts between the date hereof and any date of
issuance of Notes or Shares and that the provisions of all applicable federal
and state securities laws have been complied with.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

        1. The Notes have been duly authorized and, when duly executed,
authenticated and delivered by or on behalf of the Company, duly authenticated
by the Trustee and duly paid for by 

<PAGE>   2
Page 2

the Underwriters, will be binding obligations of the Company and entitled to the
benefits of the Indenture; and

        2. The Shares have been duly authorized and duly reserved for issuance
upon conversion of the Notes and, when issued and delivered pursuant to the
terms of the Indenture, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm under the caption
"Legal Matters" in the Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,


/s/ Willkie Farr & Gallagher

SCHEDULE RC-R--RISK-BASED CAPITAL

This schedule must be completed by all banks as follows:  Banks that reported total assets of $1 billion or more in Schedule RC,
item 12, for June 30, 1993, must complete items 2 through 9 and Memorandum item 1.  Banks with assets of less than
$1 billion must complete items 1 through 3 below or Schedule RC-R in its entirety, depending on their response to item 1 below.


1. Test for determining the extent to which Schedule RC-R must be completed. To be completed              --------
   only by banks with total assets of less than $1 billion. Indicate in the appropriate                   | C480 | <-

     For purposes of this test, adjusted total assets equals total assets less cash, U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Government
   agency obligations, and 80 percent of U.S. Government-sponsored agency obligations plus the allowance for loan
   and lease losses and selected off-balance sheet items as reported on Schedule RC-L (see instructions).
     If the box marked YES has been checked, then the bank only has to complete items 2 and 3 below. If the box marked
   NO has been checked, the bank must complete the remainder of this schedule.
     A NO response to item 1 does not necessarily mean that the bank's actual risk-based capital ratio is less than eight
   percent or that the bank is not in compliance with the risk-based capital guidelines.

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