  1.      Basis of presentation

     The financial statements of Health and Retirement Properties Trust
  ("the Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
  accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
  instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. 
  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
  required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
  financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
  (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
  fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for interim
  periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
  expected for the full year.  

  2.      Tax status

     The Company is a real estate investment trust under the Internal
  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Accordingly, the Company expects not
  to be subject to federal income taxes on amounts distributed to
  shareholders provided it distributes at least 95% of its real estate
  investment trust taxable income and meets certain other requirements for
  qualifying as a real estate investment trust.

  3.      Dividends

     On March 25, 1995, the Trustees declared a dividend on the Company's
  common shares of beneficial interest with respect to the quarter ended
  March 31, 1995, of $.34 per share, which will be paid on or about May
  31, 1995, to shareholders of record at the close of business on April
  27, 1995.

     Dividends are principally based on funds from operations which is
  defined as net income excluding gains (or losses) from debt
  restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization. 
  Cash available for distribution may not necessarily equal funds from
  operations as the cash flow of the Company is affected by other factors
  not included in the funds from operations calculation.  Dividends in
  excess of net income are a return of capital.

  4.      Real estate properties

     During the first quarter of 1995, the Company acquired nine nursing
  properties and 21 Courtyard by Marriott hotels for approximately
  $211,264.  In addition, the Company sold one nursing property for
  $24,500 and realized a gain of approximately $2,476.  The hotels were
  acquired by a wholly owned subsidary of the Company.  The nursing
  properties have been leased to an affiliate.  These acquisitions were
  funded with cash on hand, $150,000 of drawings on the revolving credit
  facility and the issuance of 1,777,766 common shares of beneficial
  interest.  Minimum rent on the new investments is $21,615 per year and 
                                     -6-<PAGE>

  initial lease term for the properties is approximately 12 years with
  several renewal options.  The leases on the hotel properties are secured
  by a $17,940 security deposit.

     During the quarter ended March 31, 1995, the Company provided
  improvement financing at existing properties of approximately $2,111.  
  As of March 31, 1995, the Company has commitments to provide financing 
  totalling approximately $55,492.

  mortgage secured by four assisted living properties due April 30, 2007

  five nursing properties, with outstanding principal balances totalling
  $7,958 were repaid.

  6.      Indebtedness

     On March 15, 1995, the Company increased its existing credit facility
  to $200,000.  The credit facility will mature in 1998, unless extended
  by the parties.  Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, at
  the Company's option, at a spread over LIBOR or Prime.  At March 31,
  1995, $150,000 was outstanding under the credit facility.  


  7.      Concentration of Credit Risk

     Approximately 82% of the Company's real estate investments are
  invested in health care real estate and approximately 18% are in hotel
  real estate.  At March 31, 1995, 32% of the Company's real estate
  properties, net, and real estate mortgages and notes, net, were subject
  to mortgages and/or leases with Marriott International, Inc., 
  ("Marriott").  The financial statements of Marriott have been filed as
  a part of Marriott's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, file number 1-12188, 
  for the quarter ended March 24, 1995.

  8.      Subsequent events and pro forma information

     On April 3, 1995, the Company purchased and leased 11 nursing
  properties and provided mortgage loans on three additional properties to
  an existing tenant.  The Company's aggregate investment in these
  properties is approximately $20,045, and was made on terms substantially
  similar to existing leases and mortgages. The minimum rent and interest
  from this transaction is approximately $2,351, per annum.  The initial
  lease term and loans mature on 2007.  The Company drew $18,000 on the
  revolving credit facility to fund this transaction.

     The following summarized Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income
  assume that all of the Company's real estate financing transactions
  during 1994 and 1995, and related financings had occurred of the
  beginning of the presented periods and give effect to the Company's
  borrowing rates throughout the periods indicated.

  The summarized Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet is intended to
  present the financial position of the Company as if the transactions
  described above and related financing had occurred on March 31, 1995.

  These pro forma statements are not necessarily indicative of the
  expected results of operations or the Company's financial position for
  any future period.  Differences could result from, but are not limited
  to, additional property investments, changes in interest rates and
  changes in the debt and/or equity structure of the Company.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
                    OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, increased to
  $25,992,000 from $17,547,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1994. 
  Rental income increased to $19,530,000 from $12,470,000 and interest
  income increased to $6,462,000 from $5,077,000 during the comparable
  period.  Rental income increased primarily as a result of new
  investments in real estate subsequent to March 31, 1994.  Interest
  income increased primarily because of the significantly higher cash
  balances during the 1995 quarter compared to the 1994 quarter.

          Total expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, increased to
  $10,160,000 from $4,897,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1994.  The
  increase is primarily the result of increases in depreciation and
  advisory fees of $1,997,000 and $388,000, respectively.  Depreciation
  and advisory fees increased as a result of new investments since March
  31, 1994.  Interest expense increased by $2,872,000 as a result of
  increased borrowings and higher interest rates.

          Income before gain on sale of properties increased to $15,832,000
  or $.27 per share for the 1995 quarter from $12,650,000 or $.28 per
  share for the 1994 quarter.  The increase in income before gain on sale
  of properties is primarily a result of the new investments since March
  31, 1994.  On a per share basis, income before gain on sale of
  properties decreased because 14,457,667 common shares were issued since
  March 31, 1994.

          The Company bases its dividend primarily on funds from operations
  during the quarter.  Funds from operations is net income excluding gains
  (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property, plus
  depreciation and amortization.  Cash available for distribution may not
  necessarily equal funds from operations as the cash flow of the Company
  is affected by other factors not included in the funds from operations
  calculation.  Funds from operations for the 1995 quarter was $20,814,000
  or $.36 per share and $15,458,000 or $.35 per share, for the 1994
  quarter.  The dividends declared which relate to these quarters were
  $20,121,000 or $.34 per share in 1995 and $18,932,925 or $.33 per share
  in 1994.  

  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

          Assets of the Company increased to $1.03 billion at March 31,
  1995 from $840,206,000 at December 31, 1994.  The increase is
  principally the result of new real estate investments of $213,375,000.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
                    OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION 

  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Continued

          At March 31, 1995, the Company had $30,864,000 of cash and cash
  equivalents, and the ability to borrow up to an additional $50,000,000
  under its revolving credit facility.  At March 31, 1995, the Company had
  outstanding commitments to provide $55,492,000 in financings.   

          On April 3, 1995, the Company purchased and leased 11 nursing
  properties and provided mortgage loans on three additional properties to
  an existing tenant.  The Company's aggregate investment in these
  properties is approximately $20,045,000 and was made on terms
  substantially similar to existing leases and mortgages. The Minimum rent
  and interest from this transaction is approximately $2,351,000 per
  annum.  The initial lease term and loans mature on 2007.  The Company
  drew $18,000,000 on the revolving credit facility to fund this
  transaction.

          The Company's primary focus is investments in healthcare related
  real estate.  At March 31, 1995, approximately 82% of the Company's
  investments in real estate are health care related and approximately 18%
  are hotel related.  The Company is evaluating alternatives to limit or
  reduce its investments in non-health care related real estate, while
  concurrently providing for its shareholders with opportunities to take
  advantage in hotel real estate.

          The Company is continuing to seek new investments to expand and
  diversify its portfolio of leased and mortgaged health care related real
  estate.  Approximately 78% of the Company's portfolio is leased to or
  mortgage financed with eight publicly traded companies.  The Company
  intends to balance the use of debt and equity in such a manner that the
  long term cost of funds borrowed to acquire or mortgage finance
  facilities is appropriately matched, to the extend practicable, to the
  terms of the investments made with such borrowed funds.  As of March 31,
  1995, the Company's debt as a percentage of total capitalization was
  approximately 36%.  Current expenses and dividends are provided for by
  funds from operations.

       SECTION 2.  PURCHASE-SALE; GRANT OF OPTION; DILIGENCE.

       2.1  Purchase-Sale.  In consideration of the mutual covenants
  herein contained, the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase from the
  Sellers and the Sellers hereby agree to sell to the Purchaser, all of
  the Sellers' right, title and interest in and to the Initial Acquisition
  Properties for the Initial Acquisition Purchase Price, subject to and in
  accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

       2.2  Grant of Option.  (a)  In consideration of the agreement of
  the Purchaser to purchase the Initial Acquisition Properties and the
  payment of the Initial Acquisition Purchase Price and for other good and
  valuable consideration, provided that the Purchaser shall acquire the
  Initial Acquisition Properties in accordance with this Agreement, the
  Sellers hereby irrevocably grant to the Purchaser an exclusive (subject
  to Section 10.3) right and option (the "Option") to purchase all of the
  Option Properties for the Option Purchase Price, subject to and in
  accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

       (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
  Agreement, the Sellers shall have the right, subject to the limitations
  set forth in this paragraph (b), by written notice (the "Exclusion
  Notice") to the Purchaser given within five (5) Business Days after the
  giving of the Exercise Notice, to exclude from the Option Properties to
  be purchased by the Purchaser hereunder certain of such Properties
  designated in the Exclusion Notice; provided, however, that in no event
  shall the Sellers have the right to reduce the number of Option
  Properties purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this
  Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.3) to less than twenty-three
  (23) in the aggregate.  Any Option Properties designated for exclusion
  by the Sellers (i) shall be representative and typical of all of the
  Option Properties taken as a whole and (ii) shall have rent coverage
  (i.e. Operating Profit (as defined in the Management Agreements) less
  ground rent divided by Minimum Rent (as defined in the Leases)) within
  two (2%) percent of the rent coverage for all of the Option Properties
  taken as a whole based upon the historic results for the Option
  Properties for the thirteen (13) accounting periods of the Sellers
  immediately preceding the Exercise Notice.  In the event that the
  Purchaser shall give notice to the Sellers prior to the Option Closing
  Date that the Purchaser disputes in its reasonable judgment that the
  Option Properties designated for exclusion by the Sellers in the
  Exclusion Notice satisfy the criteria set forth in clauses (i) and (ii)
  preceding, then the Option Properties to be excluded from the sale to
  the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall be determined as follows: 
  first, the Purchaser shall select two (2) Option Properties to be
  acquired by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; second, the
  Sellers shall select one (1) Option Property to be excluded from the
  sale; then, the Purchaser and the Sellers shall repeat steps first and
  second until a number of Option Properties to be excluded has been
  determined equal in number to that set forth in the Exclusion Notice. <PAGE>


                                     -9-

  Failure of the Seller to give the Exclusion Notice within five (5)
  Business Days after the giving of the Exercise Notice shall be a waiver
  of the Sellers' rights pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) and time shall be
  of the essence with respect to the giving of the Exclusion Notice.  In
  the event that the Sellers shall exclude any Option Properties pursuant
  to this Section 2.2(c), the Option Purchase Price shall be reduced by
  the aggregate of the Allocable Purchase Prices of all such excluded
  Option Properties and any such excluded Option Property shall be subject
  to the rights granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1.

       2.3  Option Period.  The Option shall be exercisable in full, but
  not in part (except as otherwise provided in Section 10.3), at any time
  during the Option Period.  The Option is exercisable by the giving of
  written notice (the "Exercise Notice") and payment of the Option Deposit
  by the Purchaser to the Sellers.  Failure of the Purchaser to give the
  Exercise Notice or pay the Option Deposit prior to the expiration of the
  Option Period shall be deemed and shall constitute an election by the
  Purchaser not to exercise the Option and time shall be of the essence
  with respect to the giving of the Exercise Notice and payment of the
  Option Deposit.

       2.4  Diligence Inspections.  (a)  For the Initial Acquisition
  Review Period, the Sellers shall permit the Purchaser and its
  representatives to inspect the Initial Acquisition Properties and the
  Improvements (including, without limitation, all roofs, electric,
  mechanical and structural elements, and HVAC systems therein), to
  perform due diligence, soil analysis and environmental investigations,
  to examine the books of account and records of the Sellers and the
  Manager with respect to the Initial Acquisition Properties (other than
  the Excluded Assets), including, without limitation, all leases and
  agreements affecting the Initial Acquisition Properties, and make copies
  thereof, at such reasonable times as the Purchaser or its
  representatives may request by notice to the Sellers and the Manager
  (which notice may be oral).  To the extent that, in connection with such
  investigations, the Purchaser, its agents, representatives or
  contractors, damages or disturbs any of the Real Property or the
  Improvements located thereon, the Purchaser shall return the same to
  substantially the same condition which existed immediately prior to such
  damage or disturbance.  The Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold
  harmless the Sellers from and against any and all expense, loss or
  damage which the Sellers may incur as a result of any act or omission of
  the Purchaser or its representatives, agents or contractors in
  connection with such examinations and inspections, other than any
  expense, loss or damage arising from any act or omission of the Sellers
  or the Manager.  The foregoing indemnification agreement shall survive
  the termination of this Agreement, the Initial Closing and the Option
  Closing.  

       (b)  In the event that the Purchaser shall exercise the Option, for
  the Option Review Period, the Sellers shall permit the Purchaser and its
  representatives to inspect the Option Properties and the Improvements
  (including, without limitation, all roofs, electric, mechanical and
  structural elements, and HVAC systems therein), to perform due
  diligence, soil analysis and environmental investigations, to examine
  the books of account and records of the Sellers and the Manager with<PAGE>


                                     -10-

  respect to the Option Properties (other than the Excluded Assets),
  including, without limitation, all leases and agreements affecting the
  Option Properties, and make copies thereof, at such reasonable times as
  the Purchaser or its representatives may request by notice to the
  Sellers and the Manager (which notice may be oral).  To the extent that,
  in connection with such investigations, the Purchaser, its agents,
  representations or contractors, damages or disturbs any of the Real
  Property or the Improvements located thereon, the Purchaser shall return
  the same to substantially the same condition which existed immediately
  prior to such damage or disturbance.  The Purchaser shall indemnify,
  defend and hold harmless the Sellers from and against any and all
  expense, loss or damage which the Sellers may incur as a result of any
  act or omission of the Purchaser or its representatives, agents or
  contractors in connection with such examinations and inspections, other
  than any expense, loss or damage arising from any act or omission of the
  Sellers or the Manager.  Such indemnification agreement shall survive
  the termination of this Agreement, the Initial Closing and the Option
  Closing.  In addition, during the period after the date of this
  Agreement and prior to the expiration of the Option Review Period, the
  Sellers agree to provide to the Purchaser with such operating
  information, from time to time, as the Purchaser may reasonably request
  regarding the Option Properties and the condition and operation thereof.

       2.5  Defective Properties.  (a)  In the event that (i) the
  Purchaser reasonably determines that a Property has structural,
  environmental, legal or other operational defects or conditions such
  that (x) expenditures equal to or greater than seven and one-half
  percent (7.5%) of the Allocable Purchase Price of such Property are
  required in order to bring such Property into a satisfactory condition
  in accordance with prevailing Marriott standards for like hotels or (y)
  the calculation with respect to such Property of Operating Profit (as
  defined in the Management Agreements) less ground rent varies by fifteen
  percent (15%) or more of that set forth in the Operating Statements
  described in Section 6.13 and other financial data provided by the
  Sellers to the Purchaser prior to the date hereof (any such Property
  being hereinafter referred to as a "Defective Property"), and (ii) the
  Purchaser gives written notice thereof to the Sellers no later than the
  expiration of the Initial Acquisition Review Period or Option Review
  Period, as the case may be (time being of the essence with respect to
  the giving of such notice), identifying the Defective Property or
  Properties and the specific defects with respect thereto, the Sellers,
  shall, subject to paragraph (c) below, be required to permit the
  Purchaser to acquire all of the Initial Acquisition Properties or Option
  Properties, as the case may be, other than such Defective Property or
  Properties.  Prior to the Initial Closing or the Option Closing, as the
  case may be, the Sellers shall enforce all rights available against
  third parties, including, without limitation, the Manager, and shall
  cause any and all defects or conditions so identified by the Purchaser
  to be corrected, it being expressly understood and agreed that nothing
  contained herein shall be construed to relieve any such parties from any
  obligations with respect to such matters.

       (b)  If, prior to the Initial Closing or the Option Closing, as the
  case may be, (i) any Initial Acquisition Property or Option Property, as
  applicable, suffers a casualty or condemnation which would cause such<PAGE>


                                     -11-

  Property or Properties to become a Defective Property, (ii) such
  Property is not, prior to the applicable Closing, restored to a
  condition substantially the same as the condition thereof immediately
  prior to such casualty or condemnation, and (iii) the Purchaser provides
  written notice of same to the Sellers no later than the Initial Closing
  Date or the Option Closing, as the case may be, time being of the
  essence, the Sellers shall, subject to paragraph (c) below, be required
  to permit the Purchaser to acquire all of the Initial Acquisition
  Properties or Option Properties, as the case may be, other than such
  Defective Property or Properties.  Promptly upon learning of the same,
  the Sellers covenant and agree to provide the Purchaser with prompt
  written notice of any casualty or condemnation affecting any Property.

       (c)  If the Purchaser timely identifies any Defective Property, and
  the Purchaser and the Sellers shall, acting reasonably and in good faith
  be unable or unwilling to agree that (x) the Sellers shall, at their
  sole cost, remedy the applicable defect prior to the applicable Closing,
  (y) the Purchaser shall, notwithstanding such defect, acquire the
  Defective Property subject to a reduction in the Allocable Purchase
  Price of the Defective Property sufficient to compensate the Purchaser
  for such defect, or (z) on the substitution of another property owned by
  the Sellers for such Defective Property, this Agreement shall terminate
  with respect to such Defective Property and the Initial Acquisition
  Purchase Price or the Option Purchase Price, as the case may be, shall
  be reduced by the Allocable Purchase Price of such Defective Property. 
  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if more than an aggregate of three (3)
  Initial Acquisition Properties or five (5) Option Properties, as the
  case may be, are identified as Defective Properties or rejected by the
  Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.6 or 2.7, either party may terminate
  this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, in which case
  the Initial Deposit or the Option Deposit, as the case may be, shall be
  returned to the Purchaser, together with interest thereon as provided in
  Section 11.1 and no party shall have any further obligations hereunder;
  provided, however, that in the event the Sellers shall be the
  terminating party, the Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable by
  notice given within ten (10) Business Days after the Sellers' notice to
  terminate, to proceed to closing on one or more such Defective
  Properties (or Properties rejected pursuant to Section 2.6 or 2.7) such
  that the total amount of Initial Acquisition Properties or Option
  Properties, as the case may be, deleted by the Purchaser pursuant to
  this Section 2.5, Section 2.6 and Section 2.7 shall not be greater than
  three (3) Initial Acquisition Properties or five (5) Option Properties,
  as the case may be.  In the event the Purchaser shall elect to proceed
  to closing as aforesaid, (x) any notice of termination given by the
  Sellers shall be null and void and of no further force or effect and (y)
  in the event that any Property shall have been affected by a casualty or
  taking, the Sellers shall pay over and assign to the Purchaser the
  entire amount of any insurance proceeds or award paid or payable with
  respect thereto less any amounts previously expended by the Sellers in
  connection with repair or restoration, provided that any such repair or
  restoration shall have been approved by the Purchaser (which approval
  shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

       (d)  In the event that Purchaser reasonably determines that the
  calculation, with respect to the Initial Acquisition Properties or the<PAGE>


                                     -12-

  Option Properties, as the case may be, in the aggregate, of Operating
  Profit (as defined in the Management Agreements) less ground rent varies
  by seven and one-half percent (7.5%) or more from that set forth in the
  Operating Statements described in Section 6.13 and other financial data
  provided by Sellers to the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall have the right
  to terminate this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, in
  which case the Initial Deposit or the Option Deposit, as the case may
  be, shall be returned to the Purchaser, together with interest thereon
  as provided in Section 11.1 and no party shall have any further
  obligations hereunder.

       2.6  Title Matters.  (a)  Within ten (10) Business Days after the
  date of this Agreement, the Sellers shall order from the Title Company
  and direct the Title Company promptly to deliver to the Purchaser and
  the Sellers a preliminary title commitment, having an effective date
  after the date of this Agreement, for an ALTA extended owner's policy of
  title insurance with respect to each of the Initial Acquisition
  Properties, together with complete and legible copies of all instruments
  and documents referred to as exceptions to title (collectively, the
  "Initial Title Commitments").  At the Sellers' election, they may also
  obtain a leasehold policy of title insurance for the tenant under the
  Leases.

       Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Initial Title
  Commitments, the Purchaser shall give the Sellers notice of any title
  exceptions (other than Permitted Encumbrances) which adversely affect
  such Property in any material respect and as to which the Purchaser
  reasonably objects.  If, for any reason, the Sellers are unable to take
  such actions as may be required to cause such exceptions to be removed
  from the Initial Title Commitments, the Sellers shall give the Purchaser
  notice thereof; it being understood and agreed that the failure of the
  Sellers to give such notice within ten (10) Business Days after the
  Purchaser's notice of objection shall be deemed an election by the
  Sellers to remedy such matters.  If the Sellers shall be unable to
  remove any title defects to which the Purchaser has reasonably objected,
  the Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this Agreement with respect to
  the affected Property, in which event, the Initial Acquisition Purchase
  Price shall be reduced by the Allocable Purchase Price of the affected
  Initial Acquisition Properties and this Agreement shall be of no further
  force and effect with respect to the affected Initial Acquisition
  Properties or (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby,
  notwithstanding such title defect, without any abatement or reduction in
  the Initial Acquisition Purchase Price on account thereof.  The
  Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to the Sellers
  given on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the Sellers' notice of
  their inability to cure such defect.  Failure of the Purchaser to give
  such notice shall be deemed an election by the Purchaser to proceed in
  accordance with clause (ii) above.  If the Purchaser shall elect to
  terminate this Agreement with respect to an aggregate of more than three
  (3) of the Initial Acquisition Properties pursuant to this Section
  2.6(a), Section 2.5 and Section 2.7, either the Purchaser or the Sellers
  may elect to proceed in accordance with Section 2.5(c).

       (b)  In the event the Purchaser shall exercise the Option as herein
  provided, within ten (10) Business Days after the Exercise Notice, the<PAGE>


                                     -13-

  Sellers shall order from the Title Company and direct the Title Company
  promptly to deliver to the Purchaser and the Sellers a preliminary title
  commitment, having an effective date after the date of the Exercise
  Notice, for an ALTA extended owner's policy of title insurance with
  respect to each of the Option Properties, together with complete and
  legible copies of all instruments and documents referred to as
  exceptions to title (collectively, the "Option Commitments").  At the
  Sellers' election, they may also obtain a leasehold policy of title
  insurance for the tenant under the Leases.

       Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Option Title
  Commitments, the Purchaser shall give the Sellers notice of any title
  exceptions (other than Permitted Encumbrances) which adversely affect
  such Property in any material respect and as to which the Purchaser
  reasonably objects.  If, for any reason, the Sellers are unable to take
  such actions as may be required to cause such exceptions to be removed
  from the Option Title Commitments, the Sellers shall give the Purchaser
  notice thereof; it being understood and agreed that the failure of the
  Sellers to give such notice within ten (10) Business Days after the
  Purchaser's notice of objection shall be deemed an election by the
  Sellers to remedy such matters.  If the Sellers shall be unable to
  remove any title defects to which the Purchaser has reasonably objected,
  the Purchaser may elect (i) to terminate this Agreement with respect to
  the affected Property, in which event, the Option Purchase Price shall
  be reduced by the Allocable Purchase Price of the affected Option
  Properties and this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect
  with respect to the affected Option Properties or (ii) to consummate the
  transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such title defect,
  without any abatement or reduction in the Option Purchase Price on
  account thereof.  The Purchaser shall make any such election by written
  notice to the Sellers given on or prior to the fifth Business Day after
  the Sellers' notice of their inability to cure such defect and time
  shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice. 
  Failure of the Purchaser to give such notice shall be deemed an election
  by the Purchaser to proceed in accordance with clause (ii) above.  If
  the Purchaser shall elect to terminate this Agreement with respect to an
  aggregate of more than five (5) of the Option Properties pursuant to
  this Section 2.6(b), Section 2.5 and Section 2.7, either the Purchaser
  or the Sellers may elect to proceed in accordance with Section 2.5(c).

       2.7  Survey Matters.  (a)  As soon as practicable after the date of
  this Agreement, the Sellers shall arrange for the preparation of an ALTA
  survey with respect to each of the Initial Acquisition Properties (the
  "Initial Surveys"), by a licensed surveyor in the jurisdiction in which
  each such Property is located, which (i) contains an accurate legal
  description of the applicable Property, (ii) shows the exact location,
  dimension and description (including applicable recording information)
  of all utilities, easements, encroachments and other physical matters
  affecting such Property, the number of striped parking spaces located
  thereon and all applicable building set-back lines, (iii) states whether
  the applicable Property is located within a 100-year flood plain and
  (iv) includes a certification in the form set forth in Schedule E,
  addressed to the Purchaser, the Title Company and any other persons
  requested by the Purchaser or designated by the Sellers.<PAGE>

       Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Initial Surveys,
  the Purchaser shall give the Sellers notice of any matters shown thereon
  (other than Permitted Encumbrances) which adversely affect any such
  Property in any material respect and as to which the Purchaser
  reasonably objects.  If, for any reason, the Sellers are unable to take
  such actions as may be required to remedy the objectionable matters, the
  Sellers shall give the Purchaser prompt notice thereof; it being
  understood and agreed that the failure of the Sellers to give such
  notice within ten (10) Business Days after the Purchaser's notice of
  objection shall be deemed an election by the Sellers to remedy such
  matters.  If the Sellers shall be unable to remove any survey defect to
  which the Purchaser has reasonably objected, the Purchaser may elect (i)
  to terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property, in
  which event, the Initial Acquisition Purchase Price shall be reduced by
  the Allocable Purchase Price of the affected Initial Acquisition
  Properties and this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force
  or effect with respect to the affected Initial Acquisition Properties or
  (ii) to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, notwithstanding
  such defect, without any abatement or reduction in the Initial
  Acquisition Purchase Price on account thereof.  The Purchaser shall make
  any such election by written notice to the Sellers given on or prior to
  the fifth Business Day after the Sellers' notice of their inability to
  cure such defect and time shall be of the essence with respect to the
  giving of such notice.  Failure of the Purchaser to give such notice
  shall be deemed an election by the Purchaser to proceed in accordance
  with clause (ii) above.  If the Purchaser shall elect to terminate this
  Agreement with respect to an aggregate of more than three (3) of the
  Initial Acquisition Properties pursuant to this Section 2.7(a), Section
  2.5 and Section 2.6, either the Purchaser or the Sellers may elect to
  proceed in accordance with Section 2.5(c).

       (b)  As soon as practicable after the Exercise Notice, the Sellers
  shall arrange for the preparation of an ALTA survey with respect to each
  of the Option Properties (the "Option Surveys"), by a licensed surveyor
  in the jurisdiction in which each such Property is located, which (i)
  contains an accurate legal description of the applicable Property, (ii)
  shows the exact location, dimension and description (including
  applicable recording information) of all utilities, easements,
  encroachments and other physical matters affecting such Property, the
  number of striped parking spaces located thereon and all applicable
  building set-back lines, (iii) states whether the applicable Property is
  located within a 100-year flood plain and (iv) includes a certification
  in the form set forth in Schedule E, addressed to the Purchaser, the
  Title Company and any other persons requested by the Purchaser or
  designated by the Sellers.

       Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Initial Surveys,
  the Purchaser shall give the Sellers notice of any matters shown thereon
  (other than Permitted Encumbrances) adversely affect any such Property
  in any material respect and as to which the Purchaser reasonably
  objects.  If, for any reason, the Sellers are unable to take such
  actions as may be required to remedy the objectionable matters, the
  Sellers shall give the Purchaser prompt notice thereof; it being
  understood and agreed that the failure of the Sellers to give such
  notice within ten (10) Business Days after the Purchaser's notice of<PAGE>


                                     -15-

  objection shall be deemed an election by the Sellers to remedy such
  matters.  If the Sellers shall be unable to remove any survey defect to
  which the Purchaser has reasonably objected, the Purchaser may elect (i)
  to terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property, in
  which event, the Option Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocable

  shall terminate and be of no further force or effect with respect to the
  affected Option Properties or (ii) to consummate the transactions
  contemplated hereby, notwithstanding such defect, without any abatement
  or reduction in the Option Purchase Price on account thereof.  The
  Purchaser shall make any such election by written notice to the Sellers
  given on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the Sellers' notice of
  their inability to cure such defect and time shall be of the essence
  with respect to the giving of such notice.  Failure of the Purchaser to
  give such notice shall be deemed an election by the Purchaser to proceed
  in accordance with clause (ii) above.  If the Purchaser shall elect to
  terminate this Agreement with respect to an aggregate of more than five
  (5) of the Option Properties pursuant to this Section 2.7(b), Section
  2.5 and Section 2.6, either the Purchaser or the Sellers may elect to

                                     -29-

  Purchaser, the same shall constitute a binding agreement of purchase and
  sale between the parties.  Failure of the Purchaser to send such
  notification within such thirty (30) day period shall constitute an
  election by the Purchaser to reject the C-R Offer and time shall be of
  the essence with respect to the giving of such notice by the Purchaser;
  it being understood and agreed that Host and any such subsidiary shall
  negotiate in good faith with the Purchaser throughout such 30-day period
  to agree upon the terms and conditions of sale.  If the Purchaser shall
  fail to accept the C-R Offer and the parties are otherwise unable to
  agree upon the applicable terms and conditions of sale prior to the
  expiration of such 30-day period, Host or such subsidiary, as the case
  may be, shall be free to list the offered interest for sale to
  unaffiliated third parties on substantially similar terms as that set
  forth in the C-R Offer; provided, however, that if such sale is not
  consummated within eighteen (18) months after the expiration of such
  30-day period, the provisions of this Section 10.1 shall, through and
  until the expiration of the First Offer Period, apply anew to the
  subject Property.  The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the
  Initial Closing and the Option Closing; provided, however, that the
  rights of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall terminate in
  the event that (x) the Purchaser shall fail to acquire the Initial
  Acquisition Properties in accordance with the terms and conditions of
  this Agreement, (y) the Purchaser shall fail to pay the Initial Option
  Fee or, in the event the Purchaser shall acquire the Option Properties,
  the Extension Option Fee to or as directed by Host as herein provided or
  (z) this Agreement shall be terminated by the Sellers pursuant to
  Section 11.2.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
  this Section 10.1, nothing contained in this Section 10.1 shall restrict
  or affect Host's or any subsidiary of Host's rights or obligations under
  any existing contract, partnership agreement or loan agreement or any
  fiduciary obligations of Host or any subsidiary of Host or any general
  partnership affected by this Section 10.1.

       10.2  Excluded Property Right of First Offer.  Host is currently
  negotiating for the sale to Allegiance Equities, Inc. of the eighteen
  Residence Inn properties set forth in Schedule K (the "Excluded Offer
  Properties").  If, for any reason, the sale to Allegiance Equities, Inc.
  of the Excluded Offer Properties is not consummated, the Sellers shall
  give written notice thereof to the Purchaser.  If, at any time during
  the period commencing on the date of such notice and expiring two (2)
  years thereafter, Host, the Sellers or any subsidiary of Host or the
  Sellers wish to dispose of any interest in an Excluded Offer Property
  (including, without limitation, any interest in any entity owning an
  Excluded Offer Property or any real property leased to an entity owning
  an Excluded Offer Property), Host, the Sellers or such subsidiary, as
  the case may be, shall submit to the Purchaser an offer (the "Excluded
  Property Offer"), setting forth the price and terms upon which the
  Sellers (or such subsidiary) would be willing to dispose of such
  interest.  The Purchaser shall have the absolute right, exercisable by
  the giving of written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after
  receipt of the Excluded Property Offer, to purchase the offered interest
  upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Excluded Property Offer
  and upon the acceptance of the Excluded Property Offer by the Purchaser,
  the same shall constitute a binding agreement of purchase and sale
  between the parties.  Failure of the Purchaser to send such notification<PAGE>


                                     -30-

  within such thirty (30) day period shall constitute an election by the
  Purchaser to reject the Excluded Property Offer and time shall be of the
  essence with respect to the giving of such notice by the Purchaser; the
  Sellers agreeing that Host, the Sellers and any such subsidiaries shall
  negotiate in good faith with the Purchaser throughout such 30-day period
  to agree upon the terms and conditions of sale.  If the Purchaser shall
  fail to accept the Excluded Property Offer and the parties are otherwise
  unable to agree upon the applicable terms and conditions of sale prior
  to the expiration of such 30-day period, the Sellers shall be free to
  list the offered interest for sale to unaffiliated third parties on
  substantially similar terms as that set forth in the Excluded Property
  Offer.  The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall survive the Initial
  Closing and Option Closing; provided, however, that the rights of the
  Purchaser pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall terminate in the event
  that the Purchaser shall fail to acquire the Initial Acquisition
  Properties in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
  Agreement.  It is expressly understood and agreed that no additional fee
  shall be payable with respect to the rights granted to the Purchaser
  pursuant to this Section 10.2.

       10.3  Rights of First Refusal.  If, at any time and from time to
  time during the Option Period prior to the Purchaser's giving of the
  Exercise Notice, the Sellers are in possession of a bona fide offer from
  an unaffiliated third party to purchase any or all of the Option
  Properties which the Sellers desire to accept, or which they have
  accepted, subject to the procedures set forth in this Section 10.3, the
  Sellers shall have the right, notwithstanding the Option, to accept such
  bona fide offer for such Properties, provided that (x) the Sellers shall
  first give the Purchaser written notice of such offer, which notice
  shall include a copy of such offer and (y) the Purchaser shall not elect
  to acquire such Properties as hereinafter provided.  The Purchaser shall
  have the right, exercisable by the giving of written notice thereof to
  the Sellers within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice
  from the Sellers, either (x) to purchase the Option Properties which are
  the subject of such offer upon the terms and conditions of such offer or
  (y) to purchase the Option Properties which are the subject of such
  offer upon the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement;
  provided, however, that in the event that the Purchaser shall elect to
  proceed in accordance with clause (y), notwithstanding anything to the
  contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall pay a deposit
  equal to twice the Option Deposit (reduced pro rata based on the
  Allocable Purchase Price if less than all of the Option Properties shall
  be the subject of such offer) and the ninety (90) day period set forth
  in Section 2.1(b)(i)(y) shall be extended to one hundred eighty (180)
  days with respect thereto.  In the event that the Purchaser shall not
  elect to proceed in accordance with clauses (x) or (y) preceding, the
  Sellers shall be free to consummate the sale of the applicable Option
  Properties on the terms and conditions set forth in the bona fide offer. 
  The Sellers shall not have the right to initiate the provisions of this
  Section 10.3 in the event that the aggregate number of the Option
  Properties transferred pursuant to this Section 10.3 (whether to the
  Purchaser or any other party) shall be greater than ten (10) but less
  than all of the remainder of the Option Properties.<PAGE>


                                     -31-

       10.4  Negotiations Regarding California Properties.  The Sellers
  and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Tenant is unwilling to
  maintain earthquake insurance with respect to the Option Properties
  located in California and the Purchaser is unwilling, absent such
  agreement, to acquire the California Option Properties and lease them to
  the Tenant.  In the event that the parties are unable to negotiate a
  mutually satisfactory resolution of such earthquake insurance dispute
  prior to the Option Closing Date, (i) the California Option Properties
  shall, automatically, be excluded from the purchase and sale hereunder,
  (ii) the Option Purchase Price shall be reduced by the aggregate of the
  Allocable Purchase Prices of all of the California Option Properties and
  (iii) the California Option Properties shall thereafter be subject to
  the rights granted to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1.


       SECTION 11.  DEFAULT.

       11.1  Default by the Sellers.  If the Sellers shall have made any
  representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or misleading in
  any material respect, or if the Sellers shall fail to perform any of the
  material covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by
  them and such failure continues for a period of ten (10) days after
  notice thereof from the Purchaser, the Purchaser may terminate this
  Agreement and/or the Purchaser may pursue any and all remedies available
  to it at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, a suit for
  specific performance or other equitable relief.  In addition to, and not
  in limitation of, the foregoing, the Purchaser may require the Sellers
  to return the Initial Acquisition Deposit or the Option Deposit, as the
  case may be, together with interest accrued thereon at the Interest Rate
  from the date such amounts were paid to the Sellers to, but not
  including, the date of refund.

       11.2  Default by the Purchaser.  If the Purchaser shall have made
  any representation or warranty herein which shall be untrue or
  misleading in any material respect, or if the Purchaser shall fail to
  perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein to be
  performed by it and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10)
  days after notice thereof from the Sellers, the Sellers may terminate
  this Agreement.  The damages that the Sellers would sustain as a result
  of any such termination would be substantial but would be impracticable
  and excessively costly and difficult to establish or ascertain and the
  parties hereto have therefore agreed that, in such event, the Sellers
  shall, as their sole remedy at law and in equity, retain the Initial
  Acquisition Deposit or the Option Deposit, as the case may be, and the
  Initial Option Fee and, if applicable, the Extension Option Fee, as
  liquidated damages.


       SECTION 12.  MISCELLANEOUS.

       12.1  Agreement to Indemnify.  (a) Subject to any express
  provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Sellers shall
  indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all
  obligations, claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and expenses
  (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and accountants'<PAGE>


                                     -32-

  fees and disbursements) arising out of (x) events, contractual
  obligations, acts, or omissions of the Sellers that occurred in
  connection with the ownership or operation of any Property prior to the
  applicable Closing or (y) any damage to property of others or injury to
  or death of any person or any claims for any debts or obligations
  occurring on or about or in connection with any Property or any portion
  thereof at any time or times prior to the applicable Closing, and (ii)
  the Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers from and
  against any and all obligations, claims, losses, damages, liabilities
  and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and
  accountants' fees and disbursements) arising out of (x) events,
  contractual obligations, acts, or omissions of Purchaser that occur in
  connection with the ownership or operation of any Property after the
  applicable Closing, or (y) any damage to property of others or injury to
  or death of any person or any claims for any debts or obligations
  occurring on or about any Property or any portion thereof at any time or
  times after the applicable Closing.

       (b)  Whenever it is provided in this Agreement that an obligation
  of the Sellers will be assumed by the Purchaser after the applicable
  Closing, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have also agreed to indemnify
  and hold harmless the Sellers and their respective successors and
  assigns from and against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities,
  costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
  attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses) arising from any failure
  of the Purchaser to perform the obligation so assumed after the
  applicable Closing.

       (c)  Whenever either party shall learn through the filing of a
  claim or the commencement of a proceeding or otherwise of the existence
  of any liability for which the other party is or may be responsible
  under this Agreement, the party learning of such liability shall notify
  the other party promptly and furnish such copies of documents (and make
  originals thereof available) and such other information as such party
  may have that may be used or useful in the defense of such claims and
  shall afford said other party full opportunity to defend the same in the
  name of such party and shall generally cooperate with said other party
  in the defense of any such claim.

       (d)  The provisions of this Section 12.1 shall survive the Initial
  Closing, the Option Closing and the termination of this Agreement.

       12.2  Brokerage Commissions.  Each of the parties hereto represents
  to the other parties that it dealt with no broker, finder or like agent
  in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
  hereby, and that it reasonably believes that there is no basis for any
  other person or entity to claim a commission or other compensation for
  bringing about this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 
  The Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its
  respective legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns from and
  against any loss, liability or expense, including, reasonable attorneys'
  fees, arising out of any claim or claims for commissions or other
  compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions
  contemplated hereby made by any broker, finder or like agent, if such
  claim or claims are based in whole or in part on dealings with the<PAGE>


                                     -33-

  Sellers.  The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers
  and their legal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns from and
  against any loss, liability or expense, including, reasonable attorneys'
  fees, arising out of any claim or claims for commissions or other
  compensation for bringing about this Agreement or the transactions
  contemplated hereby made by any broker, finder or like agent, if such
  claim or claims are based in whole or in part on dealings with the
  Purchaser.  Nothing contained in this section shall be deemed to create
  any rights in any third party.  The provisions of this Section 12.2
  shall survive the Initial Closing, the Option Closing and any
  termination of this Agreement.

       12.3  Publicity.  The parties agree that no party shall, with
  respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,
  contact or conduct negotiations with public officials, make any public
  pronouncements, issue press releases or otherwise furnish information
  regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated to any third
  party without the consent of the other parties, which consent shall not
  be unreasonably withheld.  No party, or its employees shall trade in the
  securities of any parent or affiliate of the Sellers or of the Purchaser
  until a public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this
  Agreement has been made.  No party shall record this Agreement or any
  notice thereof.

       12.4  Corporate Approvals.  (a) In the event, notwithstanding
  diligent and good faith efforts, the Sellers shall be unable to obtain
  the approval of the Boards of Directors of the Sellers to the
  transactions contemplated by this Agreement, this Agreement may be
  terminated by the Sellers by the giving of written notice thereof to the
  Purchaser within five (5) Business Days after the date of this
  Agreement; it being expressly understood and agreed that time shall be
  of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice.  If the
  Sellers shall give such notice to the Purchaser within the time period
  hereinabove provided, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no
  further force or effect and the Sellers shall refund the Initial Deposit
  to the Purchaser, together with interest thereon, in accordance with
  Section 11.1.  If the Sellers shall fail to give such notice within the
  time period and in the manner hereinabove provided, the Sellers shall
  have no further right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this
  section.

       (b)  In the event, notwithstanding diligent and good faith efforts,
  the Purchaser shall be unable to obtain the approval of the Board of
  Directors of the Purchaser to the transactions contemplated by this
  Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by the Purchaser by the
  giving of written notice thereof to the Seller within five (5) Business
  Days after the date of this Agreement; it being expressly understood and
  agreed that time shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of
  such notice.  If the Purchaser shall give such notice to the Sellers
  within the time period hereinabove provided, this Agreement shall
  terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Sellers shall
  refund the Initial Deposit to the Purchaser, together with interest
  thereon, in accordance with Section 11.1.  If the Purchaser shall fail
  to give such notice within the time period and in the manner hereinabove<PAGE>


                                     -34-

  provided, the Purchaser shall have no further right to terminate this
  Agreement pursuant to this section.

       12.5  Notices.  (a)  Any and all notices, demands, consents,
  approvals, offers, elections and other communications required or
  permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed adequately given if in
  writing and the same shall be delivered either in hand, by telecopier
  with written acknowledgment of receipt, or by mail or Federal Express or
  similar expedited commercial carrier, addressed to the recipient of the
  notice, postpaid and registered or certified with return receipt
  requested (if by mail), or with all freight charges prepaid (if by

  be deemed to have been given for all purposes of this Agreement upon the
  date of acknowledged receipt, in the case of a notice by telecopier,

  that whenever under this Agreement a notice is either received on a day
  which is not a Business Day or is required to be delivered on or before
  a specific day which is not a Business Day, the day of receipt or
  required delivery shall automatically be extended to the next Business
  Day.

       (d)  By notice given as herein provided, the parties hereto and
  their respective successor and assigns shall have the right from time to
  time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their
  respective addresses effective upon receipt by the other parties of such
  notice and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other
  address within the United States of America.

       12.6  Waivers, Etc.  Any waiver of any term or condition of this
  Agreement, or of the breach of any covenant, representation or warranty
  contained herein, in any one instance, shall not operate as or be deemed
  to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other breach
  of such term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty or any
  other term, condition, covenant, representation or warranty, nor shall
  any failure at any time or times to enforce or require performance of
  any provision hereof operate as a waiver of or affect in any manner such
  party's right at a later time to enforce or require performance of such
  provision or any other provision hereof.  This Agreement may not be
  amended, nor shall any waiver, change, modification, consent or
  discharge be effected, except by an instrument in writing executed by or
  on behalf of the party against whom enforcement of any amendment,
  waiver, change, modification, consent or discharge is sought.
   
       12.7  Assignment; Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement and all
  rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assignable by any party
  without the written consent of the other parties, except that the
  Purchaser may assign this Agreement to Health and Retirement Properties
  Trust and to any entity wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by Health
  and Retirement Properties Trust; provided, however, that, in the event
  this Agreement shall be assigned to any entity wholly owned, directly or
  indirectly, by Health and Retirement Properties Trust, the Purchaser
  named herein shall remain liable for the obligation of the "Purchaser"
  hereunder and Health and Retirement Properties Trust shall guaranty the
  obligations of such Assignee hereunder.  This Agreement shall be binding
  upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
  respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. 
  This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to create any
  rights in or to be enforceable in any part by any other persons.

       12.8  Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be
  held or deemed to be, or shall in fact be, invalid, inoperative or
  unenforceable as applied to any particular case in any jurisdiction or
  jurisdictions, or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, because of the
  conflict of any provision with any constitution or statute or rule of
  public policy or for any other reason, such circumstance shall not have
  the effect of rendering the provision or provisions in question invalid,
  inoperative or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction or in any other
  case or circumstance or of rendering any other provision or provisions
  herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to the extent
  that such other provisions are not themselves actually in conflict with
  such constitution, statute or rule of public policy, but this Agreement<PAGE>


                                     -36-

  shall be reformed and construed in any such jurisdiction or case as if
  such invalid, inoperative or unenforceable provision had never been
  contained herein and such provision reformed so that it would be valid,
  operative and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted in such
  jurisdiction or in such case.

       12.9  Counterparts, Etc.  This Agreement may be executed in two or
  more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
  which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This
  Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with
  respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede and take the
  place of any other instruments purporting to be an agreement of the
  parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement
  may not be amended or modified in any respect other than by the written
  agreement of all of the parties hereto.

       12.10  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be interpreted,
  construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State
  of Maryland applicable to contracts between residents of Maryland which
  are to be performed entirely within Maryland, regardless of (i) where
  this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or
  other performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be
  made; or (iii) where any breach of any provision of this Agreement
  occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any
  action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (v) the
  nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or
  jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (vi)
  whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the
  laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland; or (vii) any
  combination of the foregoing.  

       To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any action to
  enforce, arising out of, or relating in any way to, any of the
  provisions of this Agreement may be brought and prosecuted in such court
  or courts located in the State of Maryland as is provided by law; and
  the parties consent to the jurisdiction of said court or courts located
  in the State of Maryland and to service of process by registered mail,
  return receipt requested, or by any other manner provided by law.

       12.11  Performance on Business Days.  In the event the date on
  which performance or payment of any obligation of a party required
  hereunder is other than a Business Day, the time for payment or
  performance shall automatically be extended to the first Business Day
  following such date.

       12.12  Attorneys' Fees.  If any lawsuit or arbitration or other
  legal proceeding arises in connection with the interpretation or
  enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party therein shall be
  entitled to receive from the other party the prevailing party's costs
  and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in
  connection therewith, in preparation therefor and on appeal therefrom,
  which amounts shall be included in any judgment therein.<PAGE>

                           LEASED PROPERTY AND TERM

             2.1  Leased Property.  Upon and subject to the terms and
  conditions hereinafter set forth, Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant
  leases from Landlord all of Landlord's right, title and interest in and
  to all of the following (collectively, the "Leased Property"):

                 (a)  those certain tracts, pieces and parcels of land, as
             more particularly described in Exhibit C, attached hereto and
             made a part hereof (the "Land");

                 (b)  all buildings, structures and other improvements of
             every kind including, but not limited to, alleyways and
             connecting tunnels, sidewalks, utility pipes, conduits and<PAGE>


                                     -13-

             lines (on-site and off-site), parking areas and roadways
             appurtenant to such buildings and structures presently
             situated upon the Land (collectively, the "Leased Improve-
             ments");
   
                 (c)  all easements, rights and appurtenances relating to
             the Land and the Leased Improvements;

                 (d)  all equipment, machinery, fixtures, and other items
             of property, now or hereafter permanently affixed to or
             incorporated into the Leased Improvements, including, without
             limitation, all furnaces, boilers, heaters, electrical
             equipment, heating, plumbing, lighting, ventilating,
             refrigerating, incineration, air and water pollution control,
             waste disposal, air-cooling and air-conditioning systems and
             apparatus, sprinkler systems and fire and theft protection
             equipment, all of which, to the maximum extent permitted by
             law, are hereby deemed by the parties hereto to constitute
             real estate, together with all replacements, modifications,
             alterations and additions thereto, but specifically excluding
             all items included within the category of Tenant's Personal
             Property (collectively, the "Fixtures");

                 (e)  all machinery, equipment, furniture, furnishings,
             moveable walls or partitions, computers or trade fixtures or
             other personal property of any kind or description used or
             useful in Tenant's business on or in the Leased Improvements,
             and located on or in the Leased Improvements, and all
             modifications, replacements, alterations and additions to such
             personal property, except items, if any, included within the
             category of Fixtures, but specifically excluding all items
             included within the category of Tenant's Personal Property
             (collectively, the "Leased Personal Property"); 

                 (f)  all of the Leased Intangible Property; and

                 (g)  any and all leases of space (including any security
             deposits held by Tenant or the Manager pursuant thereto) in
             the Leased Improvements to tenants thereof.

             2.2 Condition of Leased Property.  Tenant acknowledges receipt
  and delivery of possession of the Leased Property and Tenant accepts the
  Leased Property in its "as is" condition, subject to the rights of
  parties in possession, the existing state of title, including all
  covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, mineral leases, ease-
  ments and other matters of record or that are visible or apparent on the
  Leased  Property, all applicable Legal Requirements, the lien of any
  financing instruments, mortgages and deeds of trust existing prior to
  the Commencement Date or permitted by the terms of this Agreement, and
  such other matters which would be disclosed by an inspection of the
  Leased Property and the record title thereto or by an accurate survey
  thereof.  TENANT REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS INSPECTED THE LEASED PROPERTY
  AND ALL OF THE FOREGOING AND HAS FOUND THE CONDITION THEREOF
  SATISFACTORY AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF
  LANDLORD OR LANDLORD'S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES WITH RESPECT THERETO AND<PAGE>


                                     -14-

  TENANT WAIVES ANY CLAIM OR ACTION AGAINST LANDLORD IN RESPECT OF THE
  CONDITION OF THE LEASED PROPERTY.  LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTY OR
  REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN RESPECT OF THE LEASED PROPERTY OR
  ANY PART THEREOF, EITHER AS TO ITS FITNESS FOR USE, DESIGN OR CONDITION
  FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE
  MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP THEREIN, LATENT OR PATENT, IT BEING AGREED THAT
  ALL SUCH RISKS ARE TO BE BORNE BY TENANT.  To the maximum extent
  permitted by law, however, Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant all of
  Landlord's rights to proceed against any predecessor in title for
  breaches of warranties or representations or for latent defects in the
  Leased Property.  Landlord shall fully cooperate with Tenant in the
  prosecution of any such claims, in Landlord's or Tenant's name, all at
  Tenant's sole cost and expense.  Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and
  hold harmless Landlord from and against any loss, cost, damage or
  liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord in
  connection with such cooperation.

             2.3  Fixed Term.  The initial term of this Agreement (the
  "Fixed Term") shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall expire
  December 31, 2006.

             2.4 Extended Term.  Provided that no Event of Default shall
  have occurred and be continuing, this Agreement shall be in full force
  and effect, and the term of all of the Other Leases shall be
  simultaneously extended, the Term shall be automatically extended for
  four (4) consecutive renewal terms, the first such renewal term to be
  for a period of seven (7) years and the last three such renewal terms to
  be for a period of ten (10) years each (collectively, the "Extended
  Terms"), unless Tenant shall give Landlord Notice, not later than
  sixteen (16) months prior to the scheduled expiration of the then
  current Term of this Agreement (Fixed or Extended, as the case may be),
  that Tenant elects not so to extend the term of this Agreement (and time
  shall be of the essence with respect to the giving of such Notice).  It
  is expressly understood and agreed that such Notice from Tenant shall be
  void and of no effect and the Term shall be automatically extended
  unless Tenant shall simultaneously elect not to extend the term of the
  Other Leases.

             Each Extended Term shall commence on the day succeeding the
  expiration of the Fixed Term or the preceding Extended Term, as the case
  may be.  All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Agreement
  shall apply to each such Extended Term, except that Tenant shall have no
  right to extend the Term beyond the expiration of the Extended Terms. 
  If Tenant shall give Notice that it elects not to extend the Term in
  accordance with this Section 2.4, this Agreement shall automatically
  terminate at the end of the Term then in effect and Tenant shall have no
  further option to extend the Term of this Agreement.  Otherwise, the
  extension of this Agreement shall be automatically effected without the
  execution of any additional documents; it being understood and agreed,
  however, that Tenant and Landlord shall execute such documents and
  agreements as either party shall reasonably require to evidence the
  same.<PAGE>

                                  ARTICLE 3

                                     RENT

             3.1  Rent.  Tenant shall pay, in lawful money of the United
  States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public
  and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction
  (unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement), Minimum Rent
  and Additional Rent to Landlord and Additional Charges to the party to
  whom such Additional Charges are payable, during the Term.  All payments
  to Landlord shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
  federal funds or by other means acceptable to Landlord in its sole
  discretion.  Rent for any partial Accounting Period shall be prorated on
  a per diem basis.

                 3.1.1  Minimum Rent.  

                 (a) Minimum Rent shall be paid in advance on the first
             Business Day of each Accounting Period; provided, however,
             that the first payment of Minimum Rent shall be payable on the
             Commencement Date (and, if applicable, such payment shall be
             prorated as provided in the last sentence of the first
             paragraph of Section 3.1).

                 (b)  Adjustments of Minimum Rent Following Disbursements
             Under Sections 5.1.2(b), 10.2.4 or 11.2.  Effective on the
             date of each disbursement to pay for the cost of any repairs,
             maintenance, renovations or replacements pursuant to Sections
             5.1.2(b), 10.2.4 or 11.2, the Minimum Rent shall be increased
             by a per annum amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount
             so disbursed.  If any such disbursement is made during any
             Accounting Period on a day other than the first day of a
             Accounting Period, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first
             day of the immediately following Accounting Period (in
             addition to the amount of Minimum Rent payable with respect to
             such Accounting Period, as adjusted pursuant to this paragraph
             (b)) the amount by which Minimum Rent for the preceding
             Accounting Period, as adjusted for such disbursement on a per
             diem basis, exceeded the amount of Minimum Rent paid by Tenant
             for such preceding Accounting Period.

                 3.1.2  Additional Rent.  

                 (a)  Amount.  For each Lease Year or portion thereof,
             Tenant shall pay an aggregate amount of additional rent
             ("Additional Rent") with respect to such Lease Year, pursuant
             to this Agreement and the Other Leases, in an amount, not less
             than zero, equal to five percent (5%) of Excess Gross
             Revenues.

                 (b)  Quarterly Installments.  Installments of Additional
             Rent for each Lease Year or portion thereof shall be
             calculated and paid quarterly in arrears, together with an
             Officer's Certificate setting forth the calculation of
             Additional Rent due and payable for such quarter.  Copies of<PAGE>


                                     -16-

             each Accounting Period Statement (as defined in the Management
             Agreement) delivered pursuant to Section 5.03 of the
             Management Agreement shall be delivered to Landlord upon
             receipt by Tenant and each quarterly payment of Additional
             Rent shall due and payable and shall be delivered to Landlord
             with the payment of the Minimum Rent next due after receipt of
             such Accounting Period Statement, together with an Officer's
             Certificate setting forth the calculation of Additional Rent
             due and payable for such quarter.  

                 (c)  Reconciliation of Additional Rent.  In addition, on
             or before April 30, of each year, commencing April 30, 1996,
             Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an Officer's Certificate
             setting forth the Gross Revenues for the Collective Leased
             Properties for such preceding Lease Year, together with an
             audit of Tenant's revenues for the preceding Lease Year,
             conducted by Arthur Anderson and Co., or another "Big Six",
             so-called, firm of independent certified public accountants
             proposed by Tenant and approved by Landlord (which approval
             shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

                 If the annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease
             Year as shown in the Officer's Certificate exceeds the amount
             previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, Tenant shall
             pay such excess to Landlord at such time as the Officer's
             Certificate is delivered, together with interest at the
             Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the close of
             such preceding Lease Year until the date that such certificate
             is required to be delivered and, thereafter, such interest
             shall accrue at the Overdue Rate, until the amount of such
             difference shall be paid or otherwise discharged.  If the
             annual Additional Rent for such preceding Lease Year as shown
             in the Officer's Certificate is less than the amount
             previously paid with respect thereto by Tenant, provided that
             no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
             Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit against Additional Rent
             next coming due in the amount of such difference, together
             with interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall
             accrue from the date of payment of Tenant until the date such
             credit is applied or paid, as the case may be.  If such credit
             cannot be made because the Term has expired prior to
             application in full thereof, provided no Event of Default has
             occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the unapplied
             balance of such credit to Tenant, together with interest at
             the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue from the date
             of payment by Tenant until the date of payment by Landlord.

                 (d)  Confirmation of Additional Rent.  Tenant shall
             utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the
             Collective Leased Properties in accordance with its usual and
             customary practices and in accordance with GAAP, which will
             accurately record all Gross Revenues and Tenant shall retain,
             for at least three (3) years after the expiration of each
             Lease Year, reasonably adequate records conforming to such
             accounting system showing all Gross Revenues for such Lease<PAGE>


                                     -17-

             Year.  Landlord, at its own expense except as provided
             hereinbelow, shall have the right, exercisable by Notice to
             Tenant within one (1) year after receipt of the applicable
             Officer's Certificate, by its accountants or representatives
             to audit the information set forth in the Officer's
             Certificate referred to in subparagraph (c) above and, in
             connection with such audits, to examine Tenant's and the
             Manager's books and records with respect thereto (including
             supporting data and sales and excise tax returns).  If any
             such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Additional
             Rent, and either Tenant agrees with the result of such audit
             or the matter is otherwise compromised with Landlord, Tenant
             shall forthwith pay to Landlord the amount of the deficiency,
             as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the
             Interest Rate, from the date such payment should have been
             made to the date of payment thereof.  If such deficiency, as
             agreed upon or compromised as aforesaid, is more than three
             percent (3%) of the Gross Revenues reported by Tenant for such
             Lease Year and, as a result, Landlord did not receive at least
             ninety-five percent (95%) of the Additional Rent payable with
             respect to such Lease Year, Tenant shall pay the reasonable
             cost of such audit and examination.  If any such audit
             discloses that Tenant paid more Additional Rent for any Lease
             Year than was due hereunder, and either Landlord agrees with
             the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise
             determined, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is
             continuing, Landlord shall grant Tenant a credit equal to the
             amount of such overpayment against Additional Rent next coming
             due in the amount of such difference, as finally agreed or
             determined, together with interest at the Interest Rate, which
             interest shall accrue from the time of payment by Tenant until
             the date such credit is applied or paid, as the case may be. 
             If such a credit cannot be made because the Term has expired
             before the credit can be applied in full, provided no Event of
             Default has occurred and is continuing, Landlord shall pay the
             unapplied balance of such credit to Tenant, together with
             interest at the Interest Rate, which interest shall accrue
             from the date of payment by Tenant until the date of payment
             from Landlord.

                 Any proprietary information obtained by Landlord with
             respect to Tenant or the Manager pursuant to the provisions of
             this Agreement shall be treated as confidential, except that
             such information may be used, subject to appropriate
             confidentiality safeguards, in any litigation between the
             parties and except further that Landlord may disclose such
             information to its prospective lenders, provided that Landlord
             shall direct and obtain the agreement of such lenders to
             maintain such information as confidential.  The obligations of
             Tenant and Landlord contained in this Section 3.1.2 shall
             survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
             Agreement.
   
                 3.1.3  Additional Charges.  In addition to the Minimum
  Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder, Tenant shall pay to the<PAGE>


                                     -18-

  appropriate parties and discharge as and when due and payable the
  following (collectively, "Additional Charges"): 

                 (a) Impositions.  Subject to Article 8 relating to
             Permitted Contests, Tenant shall pay, or cause to be paid, all
             Impositions before any fine, penalty, interest or cost (other
             than any opportunity cost as a result of a failure to take
             advantage of any discount for early payment) may be added for
             non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing
             authorities where feasible, and shall promptly, upon request,
             furnish to Landlord copies of official receipts or other
             reasonably satisfactory proof evidencing such payments.  If
             any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer,
             lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest
             shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Tenant
             may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued
             interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in
             installments and, in such event, shall pay such installments
             during the Term as the same become due and before any fine,
             penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added
             thereto. Landlord, at its expense, shall, to the extent
             required or permitted by Applicable Law, prepare and file all
             tax returns and pay all taxes due in respect of Landlord's net
             income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business,
             transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes and
             taxes on its capital stock, and Tenant, at its expense, shall,
             to the extent required or permitted by Applicable Laws and
             regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and
             reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by
             Government Agencies.  Provided no Event of Default shall have
             occurred and be continuing, if any refund shall be due from
             any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by
             Tenant, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Tenant. 
             Landlord and Tenant shall, upon request of the other, provide
             such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is
             made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary
             to prepare any required returns and reports.  In the event
             Government Agencies classify any property covered by this
             Agreement as personal property, Tenant shall file all personal
             property tax returns in such jurisdictions where it may
             legally so file.  Each party shall, to the extent it possesses
             the same, provide the other, upon request, with cost and
             depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any
             property so classified as personal property.  Where Landlord
             is legally required to file personal property tax returns for
             property covered by this Agreement, Landlord shall provide
             Tenant with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time
             for Tenant to file a protest.  All Impositions assessed
             against such personal property shall be (irrespective of
             whether Landlord or Tenant shall file the relevant return)
             paid by Tenant not later than the last date on which the same
             may be made without interest or penalty.  

                 Landlord shall give prompt Notice to Tenant and the
             Manager of all Impositions payable by Tenant hereunder of<PAGE>


                                     -19-

             which Landlord at any time has knowledge; provided, however,
             that Landlord's failure to give any such notice shall in no
             way diminish Tenant's obligation hereunder to pay such
             Impositions (except that Landlord shall be responsible for any
             interest or penalties incurred as a result of Landlord's
             failure promptly to forward the same).

                 (b)  Utility Charges.  Tenant shall pay or cause to be
             paid all charges for electricity, power, gas, oil, water and
             other utilities used in connection with the Leased Property.

                 (c)  Insurance Premiums.  Tenant shall pay or cause to be
             paid all premiums for the insurance coverage required to be
             maintained pursuant to Article 9.

                 (d)  Other Charges.  Tenant shall pay or cause to be paid
             all other amounts, liabilities and obligations, including,
             without limitation, [ground rents and other sums payable under
             the Ground Lease] and all amounts payable under or with
             respect to the Management Agreement (except as expressly
             provided in Section 5.1.2(b)) and all agreements to indemnify
             Landlord under Sections 4.3.2 and 9.7.

                 (e)  Reimbursement for Additional Charges.  If Tenant pays
             or causes to be paid property taxes or similar or other
             Additional Charges attributable to periods after the end of
             the Term, whether upon expiration or sooner termination of
             this Agreement (other than termination by reason of an Event
             of Default), Tenant may, within a reasonable time after the
             end of the Term, provide Notice to Landlord of its estimate of
             such amounts.  Landlord shall promptly reimburse Tenant for
             all payments of such taxes and other similar Additional
             Charges that are attributable to any period after the Term of
             this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall have been
             terminated following an Event of Default).

             3.2 Late Payment of Rent, Etc.,  If any installment of Minimum
  Rent, Additional Rent or Additional Charges (but only as to those
  Additional Charges which are payable directly to Landlord) shall not be
  paid within ten (10) days after its due date, Tenant shall pay Landlord,
  on demand, as Additional Charges, a late charge (to the extent permitted
  by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on the amount of such installment,
  from the due date of such installment to the date of payment thereof. To
  the extent that Tenant pays any Additional Charges directly to Landlord
  or any Hotel Mortgagee pursuant to any requirement of this Agreement,
  Tenant shall be relieved of its obligation to pay such Additional
  Charges to the Entity to which they would otherwise be due.  If any
  payments due from Landlord to Tenant shall not be paid within ten (10)
  days after its due date, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, on demand, a late
  charge (to the extent permitted by law) computed at the Overdue Rate on
  the amount of such installment from the due date of such installment to
  the date of payment thereof.

             In the event of any failure by Tenant to pay any Additional
  Charges when due, except as expressly provided in Section 3.1.3(a),<PAGE>


                                     -20-

  Tenant shall promptly pay and discharge, as Additional Charges, every
  fine, penalty, interest and cost which may be added for non-payment or
  late payment of such items.  Landlord shall have all legal, equitable
  and contractual rights, powers and remedies provided either in this
  Agreement or by statute or otherwise in the case of non-payment of the
  Additional Charges as in the case of non-payment of the Minimum Rent and
  Additional Rent.

             3.3 Net Lease.  The Rent shall be absolutely net to Landlord
  so that this Agreement shall yield to Landlord the full amount of the
  installments or amounts of the Rent throughout the Term, subject to any
  other provisions of this Agreement which expressly provide otherwise,
  including those provisions for adjustment or abatement of such Rent.  

             3.4 No Termination, Abatement, Etc.  Except as otherwise
  specifically provided in this Agreement, each of Landlord and Tenant, to
  the maximum extent permitted by law, shall remain bound by this
  Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall not take any action
  without the consent of the other to modify, surrender or terminate this
  Agreement.  In addition, except as otherwise expressly provided in this
  Agreement, Tenant shall not seek, or be entitled to, any abatement,
  deduction, deferment or reduction of the Rent, or set-off against the
  Rent, nor shall the respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant be
  otherwise affected by reason of (a) any damage to or destruction of the
  Leased Property or any portion thereof from whatever cause or any
  Condemnation, (b) the lawful or unlawful prohibition of, or restriction
  upon, Tenant's use of the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, or
  the interference with such use by any Person or by reason of eviction by
  paramount title; (c) any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord by
  reason of any default (other than a monetary default) or breach of any
  warranty by Landlord under this Agreement or any other agreement between
  Landlord and Tenant, or to which Landlord and Tenant are parties; (d)
  any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, readjustment,
  liquidation, dissolution, winding up or other proceedings affecting
  Landlord or any assignee or transferee of Landlord; or (e) for any other
  cause whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing (other than
  a monetary default by Landlord); provided, however, that the foregoing
  shall not apply or be construed to restrict Tenant's rights in the event
  of any act or omission by Landlord constituting gross negligence or
  willful misconduct.  Except as otherwise specifically provided in this
  Agreement, Tenant hereby waives all rights arising from any occurrence
  whatsoever, which may now or hereafter be conferred upon it by law, to
  (a) modify, surrender or terminate this Agreement or quit or surrender
  the Leased Property or any portion thereof, or (b) entitle Tenant to any
  abatement, reduction, suspension or deferment of the Rent or other sums
  payable or other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder.  The
  obligations of each party hereunder shall be separate and independent
  covenants and agreements, and the Rent and all other sums payable by
  Tenant hereunder shall continue to be payable in all events unless the
  obligations to pay the same shall be terminated pursuant to the express
  provisions of this Agreement.  In any instance where, after the
  occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord retains funds which, but for
  the occurrence of such Event of Default, would be payable to Tenant,
  Landlord shall refund such funds to Tenant to the extent the amount<PAGE>


                                     -21-

  thereof exceeds the amount necessary to compensate Landlord for any
  cost, loss or damage incurred in connection with such Event of Default.

             3.5  Security for Tenant's Performance.  Tenant acknowledges
  that the Initial Deferred Purchase Price and the Option Deferred
  Purchase Price (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) constitute
  security for the faithful observance and performance by Tenant of all
  the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement by Tenant to be
  observed and performed.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be
  continuing, Landlord may, at its option and without prejudice to any
  other remedy which Landlord may have on account thereof, appropriate and
  apply the entire amount of such Contingent Purchase Prices or so much
  thereof as may be necessary to compensate Landlord toward the payment of
  the Rent or other sums or loss or damage sustained by Landlord due to
  such breach by Tenant.  It is understood and agreed that the amount of
  such Contingent Purchase Prices is not to be considered as prepaid rent,
  nor shall damages be limited to the amount of the amount of such
  Contingent Purchase Prices.  Provided this Agreement shall not be
  terminated as a result of an Event of Default, such Contingent Purchase
  Prices shall be paid as provided in the Purchase Agreement.

                          USE OF THE LEASED PROPERTY

             4.1  Permitted Use.  

                 4.1.1  Permitted Use.  

                 (a)  Except as otherwise provided in the Management
             Agreement, Tenant shall, at all times during the Term and at
             any other time that Tenant shall be in possession of the
             Leased Property, continuously use and operate, and cause the
             Manager to use and operate, the Leased Property as a Marriott
             Courtyard hotel and any uses incidental thereto.  Subject to
             Section 16.3, Tenant shall not use (and shall direct the
             Manager not to use) the Leased Property or any portion thereof
             for any other use without the prior written consent of
             Landlord.  No use shall be made or permitted to be made of the
             Leased Property and no acts shall be done thereon which will
             cause the cancellation of any insurance policy covering the
             Leased Property or any part thereof (unless another adequate
             policy is available) [or which would constitute a default
             under the Ground Lease], nor shall Tenant sell or otherwise
             provide or permit to be kept, used or sold in or about the
             Leased Property any article which may be prohibited by law or
             by the standard form of fire insurance policies, or any other
             insurance policies required to be carried hereunder, or fire
             underwriter's regulations.  Tenant shall, at its sole cost
             (except as expressly provided in Section 5.1.2(b)), comply (or
             direct the Manager to comply) with all Insurance Requirements. 
             Except as otherwise provided in the Management Agreement,
             Tenant shall not take or omit to take (and Tenant shall direct
             the Manager not to take or omit to take) any action, the<PAGE>


                                     -22-

             taking or omission of which materially impairs the value or
             the usefulness of the Leased Property or any part thereof for
             its Permitted Use.

                 (b)  In the event that, in the reasonable determination of
             Tenant, it shall no longer be economically practical to
             operate the Leased Property as a Marriott Courtyard hotel,
             Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice shall
             set forth in reasonable detail the reasons therefor. 
             Thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith
             to agree on an alternative use for the Leased Property,
             appropriate adjustments to the Additional Rent and other
             related matters; provided, however, in no such event shall the
             Minimum Rent be reduced or abated.  

                 4.1.2  Necessary Approvals.  Tenant shall proceed with all
  due diligence and exercise best efforts to obtain and maintain, and
  shall direct the Manager to obtain and maintain, all approvals necessary
  to use and operate, for its Permitted Use, the Leased Property and the
  Hotel located thereon under applicable law.

                 4.1.3  Lawful Use, Etc.  Tenant shall not, and shall
  direct the Manager not to, use or suffer or permit the use of the Leased
  Property or Tenant's Personal Property, if any, for any unlawful
  purpose.  Tenant shall not, and shall direct the Manager not to, commit
  or suffer to be committed any waste on the Leased Property, or in the
  Hotel, nor shall Tenant cause or permit any unlawful nuisance thereon or
  therein.  Tenant shall not, and shall direct the Manager not to, suffer
  nor permit the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, to be used in
  such a manner as (i) might reasonably impair Landlord's title thereto or
  to any portion thereof, or (ii) may reasonably allow a claim or claims
  for adverse usage or adverse possession by the public, as such, or of
  implied dedication of the Leased Property or any portion thereof.

             4.2  Compliance with Legal/Insurance Requirements, Etc. 
  Except as otherwise provided in the Management Agreement, subject to the
  provisions of Article 8 and Section 5.1.2(b), Tenant, at its sole
  expense, shall (or shall direct the Manager to) (i) comply with Legal
  Requirements and Insurance Requirements in respect of the use,
  operation, maintenance, repair, alteration and restoration of the Leased
  Property and with the terms and conditions of any ground lease affecting
  the Leased Property, (ii) [perform all of Landlord's obligations as
  tenant under the Ground Lease,] and (iii) procure, maintain and comply
  with all appropriate licenses, and other authorizations and agreements
  required for any use of the Leased Property and Tenant's Personal
  Property, if any, then being made, and for the proper erection,
  installation, operation and maintenance of the Leased Property or any
  part thereof.

             4.3  Environmental Matters.  

                 4.3.1  Restriction on Use, Etc.  During the Term and any
  other time that Tenant shall be in possession of the Leased Property,
  Tenant shall not (and shall direct the Manager not to) store, spill
  upon, dispose of or transfer to or from the Leased Property any<PAGE>


                                     -23-

  Hazardous Substance, except in compliance with all Applicable Laws. 
  During the Term and any other time that Tenant shall be in possession of
  the Leased Property, Tenant shall maintain (and shall direct the Manager
  to maintain) the Leased Property at all times free of any Hazardous
  Substance (except in compliance with all Applicable Laws).  Tenant shall
  promptly:  (a) upon receipt of notice or knowledge and shall direct the
  Manager upon receipt of notice or knowledge promptly to, notify Landlord
  in writing of any material change in the nature or extent of Hazardous
  Substances at the Leased Property, (b) transmit to Landlord a copy of
  any Community Right to Know report which is required to be filed by
  Tenant or the Manager with respect to the Leased Property pursuant to
  SARA Title III or any other Applicable Law, (c) transmit to Landlord
  copies of any citations, orders, notices or other governmental com-
  munications received by Tenant or the Manager or their respective agents
  or representatives with respect thereto (collectively, "Environmental
  Notice"), which Environmental Notice requires a written response or any
  action to be taken and/or if such Environmental Notice gives notice of
  and/or presents a material risk of any material violation of any
  Applicable Law and/or presents a material risk of any material cost,
  expense, loss or damage (an "Environmental Obligation"), (d) observe and
  comply (and direct the Manager to observe and comply) with all
  Applicable Laws relating to the use, maintenance and disposal of
  Hazardous Substances and all orders or directives from any official,
  court or agency of competent jurisdiction relating to the use or
  maintenance or requiring the removal, treatment, containment or other
  disposition thereof, and (e) pay or otherwise dispose of any fine,
  charge or Imposition related thereto, unless Tenant or the Manager shall
  contest the same in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and the
  right to use and the value of the Leased Property is not materially and
  adversely affected thereby.

             If, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement,
  Hazardous Substances (other than those maintained in accordance with
  Applicable Laws) are discovered on the Leased Property, subject to
  Tenant's and the Manager's right to contest the same in accordance with
  Article 8, Tenant shall take (and shall direct the Manager to take) all
  actions and incur any and all expenses, as may be reasonably necessary
  and as may be required by any Government Agency, (i) to clean up and
  remove from and about the Leased Property all Hazardous Substances
  thereon, (ii) to contain and prevent any further release or threat of
  release of Hazardous Substances on or about the Leased Property and
  (iii) to use good faith efforts to eliminate any further release or
  threat of release of Hazardous Substances on or about the Leased
  Property.

                 4.3.2  Indemnification of Landlord.  Tenant shall protect,
  indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and each Hotel Mortgagee, their
  trustees, officers, agents, employees and beneficiaries, and any of
  their respective successors or assigns with respect to this Agreement
  (collectively, the "Indemnitees" and, individually, an "Indemnitee")
  for, from and against any and all debts, liens, claims, causes of
  action, administrative orders or notices, costs, fines, penalties or
  expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and
  expenses) imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee
  resulting from, either directly or indirectly, the presence during the<PAGE>


                                     -24-

  Term (or any other time Tenant shall be possession of the Leased
  Property) in, upon or under the soil or ground water of the Leased
  Property or any properties surrounding the Leased Property of any
  Hazardous Substances in violation of any Applicable Law or otherwise,
  provided that any of the foregoing arises by reason of any failure by
  Tenant, the Manager or any Person claiming by, through or under Tenant
  or the Manager to perform or comply with any of the terms of this
  Section 4.3, except to the extent the same arise from the gross
  negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any other Indemnitee. 
  Tenant's duty herein includes, but is not limited to, costs associated
  with personal injury or property damage claims as a result of the
  presence prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Term and
  the surrender of the Leased Property to Landlord in accordance with the
  terms of this Agreement of Hazardous Substances in, upon or under the
  soil or ground water of the Leased Property in violation of any
  Applicable Law.  Upon Notice from Landlord and any other of the
  Indemnitees, Tenant shall undertake the defense, at Tenant's sole cost
  and expense, of any indemnification duties set forth herein, in which
  event, Tenant shall not be liable for payment of any duplicative
  attorneys' fees incurred by any Indemnitee.  

             Tenant shall, upon demand, pay to Landlord, as an Additional
  Charge, any cost, expense, loss or damage (including, without
  limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord and arising
  from a failure of Tenant strictly to observe and perform the
  requirements of this Section 4.3, which amounts shall bear interest from
  the date ten (10) days after written demand therefor is given to Tenant
  until paid by Tenant to Landlord at the Overdue Rate.

                 4.3.3  Survival.  The provisions of this Section 4.3 shall
  survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement.

             5.1  Maintenance and Repair.

                 5.1.1  Tenant's Obligations.  

                 (a)  Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense (except as
             expressly provided in Section 5.1.2(b)), or shall direct the
             Manager to, keep the Leased Property and all private roadways,
             sidewalks and curbs appurtenant thereto (and Tenant's Personal
             Property, if any) in good order and repair, reasonable wear
             and tear excepted (whether or not the need for such repairs
             occurs as a result of Tenant's or the Manager's use, any prior
             use, the elements or the age of the Leased Property or
             Tenant's Personal Property, if any, or any portion thereof),
             and shall promptly make (or cause the Manager to make) all
             necessary and appropriate repairs and replacements thereto of
             every kind and nature, whether interior or exterior,
             structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary,
             foreseen or unforeseen or arising by reason of a condition<PAGE>


                                     -25-

             existing prior to the commencement of the Term (concealed or
             otherwise).  All repairs shall be made in a good, workmanlike
             manner, consistent with the Manager's and industry standards
             for like hotels in like locales, in accordance with all
             applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances,
             by-laws, codes, rules and regulations relating to any such
             work.  Tenant shall not take or omit to take (and shall direct
             the Manager not to take or omit to take) any action, the
             taking or omission of which would materially and adversely
             impair the value or the usefulness of the Leased Property or
             any part thereof for its Permitted Use.  Tenant's obligations
             under this Section 5.1.1(a) shall be limited in the event of
             any casualty or Condemnation as set forth in Sections 10.2 and
             11.2 and Tenant's obligations with respect to Hazardous
             Substances are as set forth in Section 4.3.

                 (b)  In addition, notwithstanding anything in this
             Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall, with respect to each
             Lease Year, or portion thereof, fund, or cause the Manager to
             fund, into the FF&E Reserve a cash amount equal to not less
             than five percent (5%) of Gross Revenues from the Leased
             Property for such Lease Year, or portion thereof, which
             amounts shall be applied to the cost of repairs, maintenance,
             renovations and replacements to and at the Leased Property in
             accordance with this Agreement and the Management Agreement. 
             Provided that Tenant shall comply with the provisions of this
             paragraph (b) and any similar provisions of the Management
             Agreement, any additional funds required for repairs,
             maintenance, renovations and replacements to and at the Leased
             Property in excess of those on deposit in the FF&E Reserve
             shall be advanced by Landlord, subject to and in accordance
             with Section 5.1.2(b).

                 5.1.2  Landlord's Obligations.  

                 (a)  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
             Agreement, Landlord shall not, under any circumstances, be
             required to build or rebuild any improvement on the Leased
             Property, or to make any repairs, replacements, alterations,
             restorations or renewals of any nature or description to the
             Leased Property, whether ordinary or extraordinary, structural
             or nonstructural, foreseen or unforeseen, or, except as
             provided in Section 5.1.2(b), to make any expenditure
             whatsoever with respect thereto, or to maintain the Leased
             Property in any way.  Except as otherwise expressly provided
             in this Agreement, Tenant hereby waives, to the maximum extent
             permitted by law, the right to make repairs at the expense of
             Landlord pursuant to any law in effect on the date hereof or
             hereafter enacted.  Landlord shall have the right to give,
             record and post, as appropriate, notices of nonresponsibility
             under any mechanic's lien laws now or hereafter existing.  

                 (b)  If, at any time, the Management Agreement requires
             that funds be disbursed for repairs, maintenance, renovations
             or replacements at or to the Leased Property (including, but<PAGE>

             not limited to, pursuant to Section 8.01 and 8.03 of the
             Management Agreement), or, pursuant to the terms of this
             Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4.3), Tenant
             is required to make any expenditures in connection with any
             repair, maintenance renovation with respect to the Leased
             Property and the amount of such disbursements or expenditures
             exceeds the amount on deposit in the FF&E Reserve, Tenant may,
             at its election, give Landlord Notice thereof, which Notice
             shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of the
             required repair, renovation or replacement, the estimated cost
             thereof and such other information with respect thereto as
             Landlord may reasonably require.  Provided that no Event of
             Default shall have occurred and be continuing and Tenant shall
             otherwise comply with the applicable provisions of Article 6,
             Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such
             Notice, subject to and in accordance with the applicable
             provisions of Article 6, disburse such required funds to
             Tenant (or, if Tenant shall so elect, directly to the Manager
             or any other Person performing the required work) and, upon
             such disbursement, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as
             provided in Section 3.1.1(b).

                 5.1.3  Nonresponsibility of Landlord, Etc.  All
  materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics and laborers and other
  persons contracting with Tenant with respect to the Leased Property, or
  any part thereof, are hereby charged with notice that liens on the
  Leased Property or on Landlord's interest therein are expressly
  prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment
  for any work done or material furnished by Tenant, the Manager or for
  any other purpose during the term of this Agreement.

             Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or
  construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord,
  express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any contractor,
  subcontractor, laborer or materialmen for the performance of any labor
  or the furnishing of any materials for any alteration, addition,
  improvement or repair to the Leased Property or any part thereof or as
  giving Tenant any right, power or authority to contract for or permit
  the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that
  would give rise to the filing of any lien against the Leased Property or
  any part thereof nor to subject Landlord's estate in the Leased Property
  or any part thereof to liability under any Mechanic's Lien Law of the
  State in any way, it being expressly understood Landlord's estate shall
  not be subject to any such liability.
   
             5.2  Tenant's Personal Property.  Tenant shall provide and
  maintain throughout the Term all such Tenant's Personal Property as
  shall be necessary in order to operate in compliance with applicable
  Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements and otherwise in
  accordance with customary practice in the industry for the Permitted Use
  and all of such Personal Property shall, upon the expiration or earlier
  termination of this Agreement, shall become the property of Landlord. 
  If, from and after the Commencement Date, Tenant acquires an interest in
  any item of tangible personal property (other than motor vehicles) on,
  or in connection with, the Leased Property which belongs to anyone other<PAGE>


                                     -27-

  than Tenant, Tenant shall require the agreements permitting such use to
  provide that Landlord or its designee may assume Tenant's rights and
  obligations under such agreement upon the termination of this Agreement
  and the assumption of management or operation of the Hotel by Landlord
  or its designee.

             5.3 Yield Up.  Upon the expiration or sooner termination of
  this Agreement, Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Leased Property to
  Landlord in substantially the same condition in which the Leased
  Property was in on the Commencement Date, except as repaired, rebuilt,
  restored, altered or added to as permitted or required by the provisions
  of this Agreement, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty
  damage and Condemnation, in the event that this Agreement is terminated
  following a casualty or total Condemnation in accordance with Article 10
  or Article 11).

             In addition, upon the expiration or earlier termination of
  this Agreement, Tenant shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, use
  its good faith efforts to transfer to and cooperate with Landlord or
  Landlord's nominee in connection with the processing of all applications
  for licenses, operating permits and other governmental authorizations
  and all contracts, including contracts with governmental or quasi-
  governmental Entities which may be necessary for the use and operation
  of the Hotel as then operated.  Consistent with the terms of the
  Management Agreement, if requested by Landlord, Tenant will direct the
  Manager to continue to manage the Hotel after the expiration of the Term
  and for up to one hundred twenty (120) days, on such reasonable terms
  (which shall include an agreement to reimburse the Manager for its
  reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and reasonable
  administrative costs), as Landlord shall reasonably request.

             5.4  Management Agreement.  Except as expressly provided in
  Section 5.1.2(b), Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, perform
  all of the obligations of "Owner" under the Management Agreement,
  including, without limitation, the funding of the FF&E Reserve and, upon
  the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, the then
  existing balance of the FF&E Reserve shall be paid to or as directed by
  Landlord.  Tenant shall, at all times, direct the Manager to perform all
  of the Manager's obligations under the Management Agreement.  Tenant
  shall not amend or modify the Management Agreement without Landlord's
  prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
  delayed or conditioned.  Tenant shall not take any action, grant any
  consent or, except as provided in the Management Agreement, permit any
  action under the Management Agreement without the prior written consent
  of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
  or conditioned.  Except as provided in the Management Agreement, Tenant
  shall not agree to any change in the Manager, to any change in the
  Management Agreement, terminate the Management Agreement or permit the
  Manager to assign the Management Agreement without the prior written
  approval of Landlord in each instance, which approval shall not be
  unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  If Landlord shall
  perform any obligations of "Owner" under the Management Agreement (which
  Landlord may do subject to Section 12.5), the cost of such performance
  shall be payable upon demand by Tenant to Landlord with interest
  accruing from the demand date at the Overdue Rate and Landlord shall<PAGE>


                                     -28-

  have the same rights and remedies for failure to pay such costs on
  demand as for Tenant's failure to pay Minimum Rent.  


                                  ARTICLE 6

                              IMPROVEMENTS, ETC.

             6.1  Improvements to the Leased Property.  Tenant shall not
  make, construct or install (and shall direct the Manager not to
  construct or install) any Capital Additions without, in each instance,
  obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
  unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned provided that (a)
  construction or installation of the same would not adversely affect or
  violate any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement applicable to the
  Leased Property and (b) Landlord shall have received an Officer's
  Certificate certifying as to the satisfaction of the conditions set out
  in clause (a) above; provided, however, that no such consent shall be
  required in the event immediate action is required to prevent imminent
  danger to person or property.  Prior to commencing construction of any
  Capital Addition, Tenant shall submit, or shall direct the Manager to
  submit, to Landlord, in writing, a proposal setting forth, in reasonable
  detail, any such proposed improvement and shall provide to Landlord such
  plans and specifications, and such permits, licenses, contracts and such
  other information concerning the same as Landlord may reasonably
  request.  Landlord shall have thirty (30) days to review all materials
  submitted to Landlord in connection with any such proposal.  Failure of
  Landlord to respond to Tenant's or the Manager's proposal within thirty
  (30) days after receipt of all information and materials requested by
  Landlord in connection with the proposed improvement shall be deemed to
  constitute approval of the same.  Without limiting the generality of the
  foregoing, such proposal shall indicate the approximate projected cost
  of constructing such proposed improvement and the use or uses to which
  it will be put.  No Capital Addition shall be made which would tie in or
  connect any Leased Improvement with any other improvements on property
  adjacent to the Leased Property (and not part of the Land) including,
  without limitation, tie-ins of buildings or other structures or
  utilities.  Tenant shall not finance, and shall direct the Manager not
  to finance, the cost of any construction of such improvement by the
  granting of a lien on or security interest in the Leased Property or
  such improvement, or Tenant's interest therein, without the prior
  written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld by Landlord
  in Landlord's sole discretion.  Any such improvements shall, upon the
  expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, remain or pass to
  and become the property of Landlord, free and clear of all encumbrances
  other than Permitted Encumbrances. 

             6.2  Salvage.  All materials which are scrapped or removed in
  connection with the making of either Capital Additions or non-Capital
  Additions or repairs required by Article 5 shall be or become the
  property of the party that paid for such work.<PAGE>

                                  ARTICLE 7

                                    LIENS

             7.1  Liens.  Subject to Article 8, Tenant shall not, directly
  or indirectly, create or allow to remain and shall promptly discharge,
  at its expense, any lien, encumbrance, attachment, title retention
  agreement or claim upon the Leased Property or Tenant's leasehold
  interest therein or any attachment, levy, claim or encumbrance in
  respect of the Rent, other than (a) Permitted Encumbrances, (b) restric-
  tions, liens and other encumbrances which are consented to in writing by
  Landlord, (c) liens for those taxes of Landlord which Tenant is not
  required to pay hereunder, (d) subleases permitted by Article 17, (e)
  liens for Impositions or for sums resulting from noncompliance with
  Legal Requirements so long as (i) the same are not yet due and payable,
  or (ii) are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (f) liens of
  mechanics, laborers, materialmen, suppliers or vendors incurred in the
  ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or are for
  sums that are being contested in accordance with Article 8, (g) any
  Hotel Mortgages or other liens which are the responsibility of Landlord
  pursuant to the provisions of Article 21 and (h) Landlord Liens.

             7.2 Landlord's Lien.  In addition to any statutory landlord's
  lien and in order to secure payment of the Rent and all other sums
  payable hereunder by Tenant, and to secure payment of any loss, cost or
  damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's breach of this
  Agreement, Tenant hereby grants unto Landlord a security interest in and
  an express contractual lien upon Tenant's Personal Property (except
  motor vehicles), and all ledger sheets, files, records, documents and
  instruments (including, without limitation, computer programs, tapes and
  related electronic data processing) relating to the operation of the
  Facilities (the "Records") and all proceeds therefrom, subject to any
  Permitted Encumbrances; and such Tenant's Personal Property shall not be
  removed from the Leased Property at any time when a Default or an Event
  of Default has occurred and is continuing.

             Upon Landlord's request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to
  Landlord financing statements in form sufficient to perfect the security
  interest of Landlord in Tenant's Personal Property and the proceeds
  thereof in accordance with the provisions of the applicable laws of the
  State.  Tenant hereby grants Landlord an irrevocable limited power of
  attorney, coupled with an interest, to execute all such financing
  statements in Tenant's name, place and stead.  The security interest
  herein granted is in addition to any statutory lien for the Rent.


                                  ARTICLE 8

                              PERMITTED CONTESTS

             Tenant and the Manager shall have the right to contest the
  amount or validity of any Imposition, Legal Requirement, Insurance
  Requirement, Environmental Obligation, lien, attachment, levy,
  encumbrance, charge or claim (collectively, "Claims") as to the Leased
  Property, by appropriate legal proceedings, conducted in good faith and<PAGE>


                                     -30-

  with due diligence, provided that (a) the foregoing shall in no way be
  construed as relieving, modifying or extending Tenant's obligation to
  pay any Claims as finally determined, (b) such contest shall not cause
  Landlord or Tenant to be in default under any mortgage or deed of trust
  encumbering the Leased Property (Landlord agreeing that any such
  mortgage or deed of trust shall permit Tenant and the Manager to
  exercise the rights granted pursuant to this Article 8) or any interest
  therein or result in or reasonably be expected to result in a lien
  attaching to the Leased Property, (c) no part of the Leased Property nor
  any Rent therefrom shall be in any immediate danger of sale, forfeiture,
  attachment or loss, and (d) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless
  Landlord from and against any cost, claim, damage, penalty or reasonable
  expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Landlord in
  connection therewith or as a result thereof.  Landlord agrees to join in
  any such proceedings if required legally to prosecute such contest,
  provided that Landlord shall not thereby be subjected to any liability
  therefor (including, without limitation, for the payment of any costs or
  expenses in connection therewith) unless Tenant agrees by agreement in
  form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, to assume and
  indemnify Landlord with respect to the same.  Tenant shall be entitled
  to any refund of any Claims and such charges and penalties or interest
  thereon which have been paid by Tenant or paid by Landlord to the extent
  that Landlord has been fully reimbursed by Tenant.  If Tenant shall fail
  (x) to pay or cause to be paid any Claims when finally determined, (y)
  to provide reasonable security therefor, or (z) to prosecute or cause to
  be prosecuted any such contest diligently and in good faith, Landlord
  may, upon reasonable notice to Tenant (which notice may be oral and
  shall not be required if Landlord shall reasonably determine that the
  same is not practicable), pay such charges, together with interest and
  penalties due with respect thereto, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord
  therefor, upon demand, as Additional Charges. 


                                  ARTICLE 9

                        INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION

             9.1  General Insurance Requirements.  Tenant shall, at all
  times during the Term and at any other time Tenant shall be in
  possession of the Leased Property, keep (or direct the Manager to keep)
  the Leased Property and all property located therein or thereon, insured
  against the risks and in the amounts as follows and shall maintain the
  following insurance: 

                 (a)  "All-risk" property insurance, including insurance
             against loss or damage by fire, vandalism and malicious
             mischief, explosion of steamboilers, pressure vessels or other
             similar apparatus, now or hereafter installed in the Hotel
             located at the Leased Property, with equivalent coverage as
             that provided by the usual extended coverage endorsements, in
             an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the then full
             Replacement Cost thereof (as defined in Section 9.2); 

                 (b)  Business interruption and blanket earnings plus extra
             expense under a rental value insurance policy or endorsement<PAGE>


                                     -31-

             covering risk of loss during the lesser of the first twelve
             (12) months of reconstruction or the actual reconstruction
             period necessitated by the occurrence of any of the hazards
             described in subparagraph (a) above, in such amounts as may be
             customary for comparable properties in the area and in an
             amount sufficient to prevent Landlord or Tenant from becoming
             a co-insurer;

                 (c)  Comprehensive general liability insurance, including
             bodily injury and property damage (on an occurrence basis and
             on a 1973 or 1988 1SO CGL form or on a form otherwise maintain
             by similarly situated tenants, including, without limitation,
             broad form contractual liability, independent contractor's
             hazard and completed operations coverage) in an amount not
             less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence and
             umbrella coverage of all such claims in an amount not less
             than Twenty-Three Million Dollars ($23,000,000);

                 (d)  Flood (if the Leased Property is located in whole or
             in part within an area identified as an area having special
             flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made
             available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as
             amended, or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
             amended (or any successor acts thereto)) and such other
             hazards and in such amounts as may be customary for comparable
             properties in the area; 

                 (e)  Worker's compensation insurance coverage for all
             persons employed by Tenant on the Leased Property with
             statutory limits and otherwise with limits of and provisions
             in accordance with the requirements of applicable local, State
             and federal law, and employer's liability insurance as is
             customarily carried by similar employers; and

                 (f)  Such additional insurance as may be reasonably
             required, from time to time, by Landlord or any Hotel
             Mortgagee and which is customarily carried by comparable
             lodging properties in the area.

             9.2  Replacement Cost.  "Replacement Cost" as used herein,
  shall mean the actual replacement cost of the property requiring
  replacement from time to time, including an increased cost of
  construction endorsement, less exclusions provided in the standard form
  of fire insurance policy.  In the event either party believes that the
  then full Replacement Cost has increased or decreased at any time during
  the Term, such party, at its own cost, shall have the right to have such
  full Replacement Cost redetermined by an independent accredited
  appraiser approved by the other, which approval shall not be
  unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The party desiring to have the full
  Replacement Cost so redetermined shall forthwith, on receipt of such
  determination by such appraiser, give written notice thereof to the
  other.  The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding
  on the parties hereto until any subsequent determination under this
  Section 9.2, and Tenant shall forthwith conform the amount of the
  insurance carried to the amount so determined by the appraiser.<PAGE>


                                     -32-

             9.3  Waiver of Subrogation.  Landlord and Tenant agree that
  (insofar as and to the extent that such agreement may be effective
  without invalidating or making it impossible to secure insurance
  coverage from responsible insurance companies doing business in the
  State) with respect to any property loss which is covered by insurance
  then being carried by Landlord or Tenant, respectively, the party
  carrying such insurance and suffering said loss releases the other of
  and from any and all claims with respect to such loss; and they further
  agree that their respective insurance companies shall have no right of
  subrogation against the other on account thereof, even though extra
  premium may result therefrom.  In the event that any extra premium is
  payable by Tenant as a result of this provision, Landlord shall not be
  liable for reimbursement to Tenant for such extra premium.

             9.4  Form Satisfactory, Etc.  All insurance policies and
  endorsements required pursuant to this Article 9 shall be fully paid
  for, nonassessable and, except for umbrella and flood coverage, be
  issued by insurance carriers authorized to do business in the State,
  having a general policy holder's rating of no less than B++ in Best's
  latest rating guide.  All such policies described in Sections 9.1(a)
  through (d) shall include no deductible in excess of Two Hundred Fifty
  Thousand Dollars ($250,000) and, with the exception of the insurance
  described in Sections 9.1(e), shall name Landlord and any Hotel
  Mortgagee as additional insureds, as their interests may appear.  All
  loss adjustments shall be payable as provided in Article 10.  Tenant
  shall cause all insurance premiums to be paid and shall deliver policies
  or certificates thereof to Landlord prior to their effective date (and,
  with respect to any renewal policy, prior to the expiration of the
  existing policy).  All such policies shall provide Landlord (and any
  Hotel Mortgagee if required by the same) thirty (30) days prior written
  notice of any material change or cancellation of such policy.  In the
  event Tenant shall fail to effect such insurance as herein required, to
  pay the premiums therefor or to deliver such policies or certificates to
  Landlord or any Hotel Mortgagee at the times required, Landlord shall
  have the right, but not the obligation, subject to the provisions of
  Section 12.5, to acquire such insurance and pay the premiums therefor,
  which amounts shall be payable to Landlord, upon demand, as Additional
  Charges, together with interest accrued thereon at the Overdue Rate from
  the date such payment is made until (but excluding) the date repaid.  

             9.5  Blanket Policy.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
  contained in this Article 9, Tenant's obligation to maintain the
  insurance herein required may be brought within the coverage of a so-
  called blanket policy or policies of insurance carried and maintained by
  Tenant or the Manager, provided, that (a) the coverage thereby afforded
  will not be reduced or diminished from that which would exist under a
  separate policy meeting all other requirements of this Agreement, and
  (b) the requirements of this Article 9 are otherwise satisfied.  Without
  limiting the foregoing, the amounts of insurance that are required to be
  maintained pursuant to Section 9.1 shall be on a Hotel by Hotel basis,
  and shall not be subject to an aggregate limit, except for products,
  completed operations and flood.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of
  Articles 9 or 10, Tenant may permit the Manager to self insure or
  otherwise retain such workers' insurance risks or portions thereof as
  the Manager does with respect to other similar hotels the Manager owns,<PAGE>


                                     -33-

  leases or manages under the Marriott name in the United States pursuant
  to any established self insurance program of Marriott International,
  Inc.

             9.6  No Separate Insurance.  Tenant shall not take out
  separate insurance, concurrent in form or contributing in the event of
  loss with that required by this Article 9, or increase the amount of any
  existing insurance by securing an additional policy or additional
  policies, unless all parties having an insurable interest in the subject
  matter of such insurance, including Landlord and all Hotel Mortgagees,
  are included therein as additional insureds and the loss is payable
  under such insurance in the same manner as losses are payable under this
  Agreement.  In the event Tenant shall take out any such separate
  insurance or increase any of the amounts of the then existing insurance,
  Tenant shall give Landlord prompt Notice thereof.

             9.7  Indemnification of Landlord.  Notwithstanding the
  existence of any insurance provided for herein and without regard to the
  policy limits of any such insurance, Tenant shall protect, indemnify and
  hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all liabilities, obliga-
  tions, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and
  reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
  attorneys' fees), to the maximum extent permitted by law, imposed upon
  or incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of:  (a) any
  accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property
  occurring on or about the Leased Property or adjoining sidewalks or
  rights of way, (b) any past, present or future use, misuse, non-use,
  condition, management, maintenance or repair by Tenant or anyone
  claiming under Tenant of the Leased Property or Tenant's Personal
  Property or any litigation, proceeding or claim by governmental entities
  or other third parties to which Landlord is made a party or participant
  relating to the Leased Property or Tenant's Personal Property or such
  use, misuse, non-use, condition, management, maintenance, or repair
  thereof including, failure to perform obligations (other than
  Condemnation proceedings) to which Landlord is made a party, (c) any
  Impositions that are the obligations of Tenant to pay pursuant to the
  applicable provisions of this Agreement, and (d) any failure on the part
  of Tenant or anyone claiming under Tenant to perform or comply with any
  of the terms of this Agreement.  Tenant, at its expense, shall contest,
  resist and defend any such claim, action or proceeding asserted or
  instituted against Landlord (and shall not be responsible for any
  duplicative attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord) or may compromise or
  otherwise dispose of the same, with Landlord's prior written consent
  (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  In the
  event Landlord shall unreasonably withhold or delay its consent, Tenant
  shall not be liable pursuant to this Section 9.7 for any incremental
  increase in costs or expenses resulting therefrom.  The obligations of
  Tenant under this Section 9.7 are in addition to the obligations set
  forth in Section 4.3 and shall survive the termination of this
  Agreement.<PAGE>

                                  ARTICLE 10

                                   CASUALTY

             10.1  Insurance Proceeds.  Except as provided in the last
  clause of this sentence, all proceeds payable by reason of any loss or
  damage to the Leased Property, or any portion thereof, and insured under
  any policy of insurance required by Article 9 (other than the proceeds
  of any business interruption insurance) shall be paid directly to
  Landlord (subject to the provisions of Section 10.2) and all loss
  adjustments with respect to losses payable to Landlord shall require the
  prior written consent of Landlord; provided, however, that, so long as
  no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all such
  proceeds less than or equal to Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars
  $250,000) shall be paid directly to Tenant or the Manager and such
  losses may be adjusted without Landlord's consent.  If Tenant is
  required to reconstruct or repair the Leased Property as provided
  herein, such proceeds shall be paid out by Landlord from time to time
  for the reasonable costs of reconstruction or repair of the Leased
  Property necessitated by such damage or destruction, subject to and in
  accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2.4.  Provided no Default
  or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any excess proceeds
  of insurance remaining after the completion of the restoration shall be
  paid to Tenant or the Manager.  In the event that the provisions of
  Section 10.2.1 are applicable, the insurance proceeds shall be retained
  by the party entitled thereto pursuant to Section 10.2.1.  All salvage
  resulting from any risk covered by insurance shall belong to Landlord,
  provided any rights to the same have been waived by the insurer.

             10.2  Damage or Destruction.  

                 10.2.1  Damage or Destruction of Leased Property.  If,
  during the Term, the Leased Property shall be totally or partially
  destroyed and the Hotel located thereon is thereby rendered Unsuitable
  for Its Permitted Use, either Landlord or Tenant may, by the giving of
  Notice thereof to the other, terminate this Agreement, whereupon, this
  Agreement shall terminate and Landlord shall be entitled to retain the
  insurance proceeds payable on account of such damage.  

                 10.2.2  Partial Damage or Destruction.  If, during the
  Term, the Leased Property shall be totally or partially destroyed but
  the Hotel is not rendered Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, Tenant
  shall, subject to Section 10.2.3, promptly restore the Hotel as provided
  in Section 10.2.4.

                 10.2.3  Insufficient Insurance Proceeds.  If the cost of
  the repair or restoration of the Leased Property exceeds the amount of
  insurance proceeds received by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to Article
  9(a), (c) or (d), Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof which notice
  shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature of such deficiency and
  whether Tenant shall pay and assume the amount of such deficiency
  (Tenant having no obligation to do so, except that, if Tenant shall
  elect to make such funds available, the same shall become an irrevocable
  obligation of Tenant pursuant to this Agreement).  In the event Tenant
  shall elect not to pay and assume the amount of such deficiency,<PAGE>


                                     -35-

  Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation), exercisable at
  Landlord's sole election by Notice to Tenant, given within sixty (60)
  days after Tenant's notice of the deficiency, to elect to make available
  for application to the cost of repair or restoration the amount of such
  deficiency; provided, however, in such event, upon any disbursement by
  Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall be adjusted as provided in
  Section 3.1.1(b).  In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall
  elect to make such deficiency available for restoration, either Landlord
  or Tenant may terminate this Agreement by Notice to the other,
  whereupon, this Agreement shall terminate as provided in Section 10.2.1. 
  It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that, notwithstanding
  anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Tenant shall be strictly
  liable and solely responsible for the amount of any deductible and
  shall, upon any insurable loss, pay over the amount of such deductible
  to Landlord at the time and in the manner herein provided for payment of
  the applicable proceeds to Landlord.

                 10.2.4  Disbursement of Proceeds.  In the event Tenant is
  required to restore the Leased Property pursuant to Section 10.2, Tenant
  shall (or shall direct the Manager to) commence promptly and continue
  diligently to perform the repair and restoration of the Leased Property
  (hereinafter called the "Work"), so as to restore the Leased Property in
  compliance with all Legal Requirements and so that the Leased Property
  shall be, to the extent practicable, substantially equivalent in value
  and general utility to its general utility and value immediately prior
  to such damage or destruction.  Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord
  shall advance the insurance proceeds and any additional amounts payable
  by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.2.3 to Tenant regularly during the
  repair and restoration period so as to permit payment for the cost of
  any such restoration and repair.  Any such advances shall be made not
  more than monthly within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant submits to
  Landlord a written requisition and substantiation therefor on AIA Forms
  G702 and G703 (or on such other form or forms as may be reasonably
  acceptable to Landlord).  Landlord may, at its option, condition
  advancement of said insurance proceeds and other amounts on (i) the
  absence of any Event of Default, (ii) its approval of plans and
  specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which approval
  shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) general
  contractors' estimates, (iv) architect's certificates, (v) unconditional
  lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (vi) evidence of
  approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies
  whose approval is required and (vii) such other certificates as Landlord
  may, from time to time, reasonably require.

             Landlord's obligation to disburse insurance proceeds under
  this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of such proceeds by any
  Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord.

             Tenant's obligation to restore the Leased Property pursuant to
  this Article 10 shall be subject to the release of available insurance
  proceeds by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord or directly to
  Tenant or the Manager and, in the event such proceeds are insufficient,
  Landlord electing to make such deficiency available therefor (and
  disbursement of such deficiency).<PAGE>


                                     -36-

             10.3  Damage Near End of Term.  Notwithstanding any provisions
  of Section 10.1 or 10.2 to the contrary, if damage to or destruction of
  the Leased Property occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the
  fourth Extended Term and if such damage or destruction cannot reasonably
  be expected to be fully repaired and restored prior to the date that is
  six (6) months prior to the end of such Extended Term, the provisions of
  Section 10.2.1 shall apply as if the Leased Property had been totally or
  partially destroyed and the Hotel rendered Unsuitable for its Permitted
  Use.

             10.4  Tenant's Property.  All insurance proceeds payable by
  reason of any loss of or damage to any of Tenant's Personal Property
  shall be paid to Tenant and, to the extent necessary to repair or
  replace Tenant's Personal Property in accordance with Section 10.5,
  Tenant shall hold such proceeds in trust to pay the cost of repairing or
  replacing damaged Tenant's Personal Property.

             10.5  Restoration of Tenant's Property.  If Tenant is required
  to restore the Leased Property as hereinabove provided, Tenant shall
  either (a) restore all alterations and improvements made by Tenant and
  Tenant's Personal Property, or (b) replace such alterations and
  improvements and Tenant's Personal Property with improvements or items
  of the same or better quality and utility in the operation of the Leased
  Property.

             10.6  No Abatement of Rent.  This Agreement shall remain in
  full force and effect and Tenant's obligation to make all payments of
  Rent and to pay all other charges as and when required under this
  Agreement shall remain unabated during the Term notwithstanding any
  damage involving the Leased Property (provided that Landlord shall
  credit against such payments any amounts paid to Landlord as a
  consequence of such damage under any business interruption insurance
  obtained by Tenant hereunder).  The provisions of this Article 10 shall
  be considered an express agreement governing any cause of damage or
  destruction to the Leased Property and, to the maximum extent permitted
  by law, no local or State statute, laws, rules, regulation or ordinance
  in effect during the Term which provide for such a contingency shall
  have any application in such case. 

             10.7  Waiver.  Tenant hereby waives any statutory rights of
  termination which may arise by reason of any damage or destruction of
  the Leased Property.

                                 CONDEMNATION

             11.1  Total Condemnation, Etc.  If either (i) the whole of the
  Leased Property shall be taken by Condemnation or (ii) a Condemnation of
  less than the whole of the Leased Property renders the Leased Property
  Unsuitable for Its Permitted Use, this Agreement shall terminate and
  Tenant and Landlord shall seek the Award for their interests in the
  Leased Property as provided in Section 11.5.  <PAGE>


                                     -37-

             11.2  Partial Condemnation.  In the event of a Condemnation of
  less than the whole of the Leased Property such that the Leased Property
  is still suitable for its Permitted Use, Tenant shall, or shall direct
  the Manager to, to the extent of the Award and any additional amounts
  disbursed by Landlord as hereinafter provided, commence promptly and
  continue diligently to restore the untaken portion of the Leased
  Improvements so that such Leased Improvements shall constitute a
  complete architectural unit of the same general character and condition
  (as nearly as may be possible under the circumstances) as the Leased
  Improvements existing immediately prior to such Condemnation, in full
  compliance with all Legal Requirements, subject to the provisions of
  this Section 11.2.  If the cost of the repair or restoration of the
  Leased Property exceeds the amount of the Award, Tenant shall give
  Landlord Notice thereof which notice shall set forth in reasonable
  detail the nature of such deficiency and whether Tenant shall pay and
  assume the amount of such deficiency (Tenant having no obligation to do
  so, except that if Tenant shall elect to make such funds available, the
  same shall become an irrevocable obligation of Tenant pursuant to this
  Agreement).  In the event Tenant shall elect not to pay and assume the
  amount of such deficiency, Landlord shall have the right (but not the
  obligation), exercisable at Landlord's sole election by Notice to Tenant
  given within sixty (60) days after Tenant's Notice of the deficiency, to
  elect to make available for application to the cost of repair or
  restoration the amount of such deficiency; provided, however, in such
  event, upon any disbursement by Landlord thereof, the Minimum Rent shall
  be adjusted as provided in Section 3.1.1(b).  In the event that neither
  Landlord nor Tenant shall elect to make such deficiency available for
  restoration, either Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Agreement and
  the entire Award shall be retained by Landlord.

             Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall contribute to the
  cost of restoration that part of the Award necessary to complete such
  repair or restoration, together with severance and other damages awarded
  for the taken Leased Improvements and any deficiency Landlord has agreed
  to disburse, to Tenant regularly during the restoration period so as to
  permit payment for the cost of such repair or restoration.  Landlord
  may, at its option, condition advancement of such Award and other
  amounts on (i) the absence of any Event of Default, (ii) its approval of
  plans and specifications of an architect satisfactory to Landlord (which
  approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) general
  contractors' estimates, (iv) architect's certificates, (v) unconditional
  lien waivers of general contractors, if available, (vi) evidence of
  approval by all governmental authorities and other regulatory bodies
  whose approval is required and (vii) such other certificates as Landlord
  may, from time to time, reasonably require.  Landlord's obligation under
  this Section 11.2 to disburse the Award and such other amounts shall be
  subject to (x) the collection thereof by Landlord and (y) the
  satisfaction of any applicable requirements of any Hotel Mortgage, and
  the release of such Award by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee.  Tenant's
  obligation to restore the Leased Property shall be subject to the
  release of the Award by the applicable Hotel Mortgagee to Landlord.  

             11.3  Abatement of Rent.  Other than as specifically provided
  in this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect
  and Tenant's obligation to make all payments of Rent and to pay all<PAGE>


                                     -38-

  other charges as and when required under this Agreement shall remain
  unabated during the Term notwithstanding any Condemnation involving the
  Leased Property.  The provisions of this Article 11 shall be considered
  an express agreement governing any Condemnation involving the Leased
  Property and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, no local or State
  statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance in effect during the Term
  which provides for such a contingency shall have any application in such
  case. 

             11.4  Temporary Condemnation.  In the event of any temporary
  Condemnation of the Leased Property or Tenant's interest therein, this
  Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and Tenant shall
  continue to pay, in the manner and on the terms herein specified, the
  full amount of the Rent.  Tenant shall continue to perform and observe
  all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of
  the Tenant to be performed and observed.  Provided no Event of Default
  has occurred and is continuing, the entire amount of any Award made for
  such temporary Condemnation allocable to the Term, whether paid by way
  of damages, rent or otherwise, shall be paid to Tenant.  Tenant shall,
  promptly upon the termination of any such period of temporary
  Condemnation, at its sole cost and expense, restore the Leased Property
  to the condition that existed immediately prior to such Condemnation, in
  full compliance with all Legal Requirements, unless such period of
  temporary Condemnation shall extend beyond the expiration of the Term,
  in which event Tenant shall not be required to make such restoration. 
  For purposes of this Section 11.4, a Condemnation shall be deemed to be
  temporary if the period of such Condemnation is not expected to, and
  does not, exceed twelve (12) months.

             11.5  Allocation of Award.  Except as provided in Section 11.4
  and the second sentence of this Section 11.5, the total Award shall be
  solely the property of and payable to Landlord.  Any portion of the
  Award made for the taking of Tenant's leasehold interest in the Leased
  Property, loss of business during the remainder of the Term, the taking
  of Tenant's Personal Property, or Tenant's removal and relocation
  expenses shall be the sole property of and payable to Tenant (subject to
  the provisions of Section 11.2).  In any Condemnation proceedings,
  Landlord and Tenant shall each seek its own Award in conformity
  herewith, at its own expense.

                            DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

             12.1  Events of Default.  The occurrence of any one or more of
  the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:
   
                 (a)  should Tenant fail to make any payment of the Rent or
             any other sum (including, but not limited to, funding of the
             FF&E Reserve payable hereunder when due and such failure shall
             continue for a period of ten (10) days after Notice thereof;
             or<PAGE>


                                     -39-

                 (b) should Tenant or the Manager fail to maintain the
             insurance coverages required under Article 9 and such failure
             shall continue for ten (10) days after Notice thereof (except
             that no Notice shall be required if any such insurance
             coverages shall have lapsed); or

                 (c) should Tenant default in the due observance or
             performance of any of the terms, covenants or agreements
             contained herein to be performed or observed by it (other than
             as specified in clauses (a) and (b) above) such default shall
             continue for a period of thirty (30) days after Notice thereof
             from Landlord to Tenant (provided that no such Notice shall be
             required if Landlord shall reasonably determine immediate
             action is necessary to protect person or property); provided,
             however, that if such default is susceptible of cure but such
             cure cannot be accomplished with due diligence within such
             period of time and if, in addition, Tenant commences to cure
             or cause to be cured such default within fifteen (15) days
             after Notice thereof from Landlord and thereafter prosecutes
             the curing of such default with all due diligence, such period
             of time shall be extended to such period of time (not to
             exceed an additional ninety (90) days in the aggregate) as may
             be necessary to cure such default with all due diligence; or

                 (d)  should any obligation of Tenant in respect of any
             Indebtedness for money borrowed or for the deferred purchase
             price of any material property or services, or any guaranty
             relating thereto, be declared to be or become due and payable
             prior to the stated maturity thereof, or should there occur
             and be continuing with respect to any such Indebtedness or
             deferred purchase price any event of default under any instru-
             ment or agreement evidencing or securing the same, the effect
             of which is to permit the holder or holders of such instrument
             or agreement or a trustee, agent or other representative on
             behalf of such holder or holders, to cause such any such
             obligations to become due prior to its stated maturity; or

                 (e) should an event of default occur and be continuing
             beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period under any
             of the Incidental Documents, the Other Leases, or by Host or
             the Sellers (as defined therein) under the Purchase Agreement;
             or

                 (f)  should there occur a final unappealable determination
             by applicable State authorities of the revocation or
             limitation of any material license, permit, certification or
             approval required for the lawful operation of the Hotel in
             accordance with its Permitted Use or the loss or material
             limitation of any material license, permit, certification or
             approval under any other circumstances under which Tenant or
             the Manager is required to cease its operation of the Hotel in
             accordance with its Permitted Use at the time of such loss or
             limitation; or<PAGE>


                                     -40-

                 (g) should any material representation or warranty made by
             Tenant or the Sellers (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)
             under or in connection with this Agreement, any Incidental
             Document, the Other Leases or the Purchase Agreement, or in
             any document, certificate or agreement delivered in connection
             herewith or therewith prove to have been false or misleading
             in any material respect on the date when made or deemed made;
             or

                 (h)  should Tenant generally not be paying its debts as
             they become due or should Tenant make a general assignment for
             the benefit of creditors; or

                 (i)  should any petition be filed by or against Tenant
             under the Federal bankruptcy laws, or should any other
             proceeding be instituted by or against Tenant seeking to
             adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation,
             reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of it
             or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency
             or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry
             of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver,
             trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or for
             any substantial part of the property of Tenant and such
             proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after
             institution thereof, or should Tenant take any action to
             authorize or effect any of the actions set forth above in this
             paragraph; or

                 (j)  should Tenant cause or institute any proceeding for
             its dissolution or termination; or

                 (k)  should an event of default occur and be continuing
             under any mortgage which is secured by Tenant's leasehold
             interest hereunder or should the mortgagee under any such
             mortgage accelerate the indebtedness secured thereby or com-
             mence a foreclosure action in connection with said mortgage;
             or

                 (l)  should the estate or interest of Tenant in the Leased
             Property or any part thereof be levied upon or attached in any
             proceeding and the same shall not be vacated or discharged
             within the later of (x) one hundred and twenty (120) days
             after commencement thereof, unless the amount in dispute is
             less than $250,000, in which case Tenant shall give notice to
             Landlord of the dispute but Tenant may defend in any suitable
             way, and (y) thirty (30) days after receipt by Tenant of
             Notice thereof from Landlord (unless Tenant shall be
             contesting such lien or attachment in good faith in accordance
             with Article 8); or 

                 (m)  should any Event of Default (as defined in the
             Management Agreement) by Tenant as "Owner" under the
             Management Agreement occur and be continuing beyond the
             expiration of any applicable cure period under the Management
             Agreement; or<PAGE>


                                     -41-

                 (n)  should Tenant at any time cease to be a direct or
             indirect Subsidiary of Host;

  then, and in any such event, Landlord, in addition to all other remedies
  available to it, may terminate this Agreement by giving Notice thereof
  to Tenant and upon the expiration of the time, if any, fixed in such
  Notice, this Agreement shall terminate and all rights of Tenant under
  this Agreement shall cease.  Landlord shall have and may exercise all
  rights and remedies available at law and in equity to Landlord as a
  result of Tenant's breach of this Agreement.  

             Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to the
  rights of the Manager under the Management Agreement, Landlord may, in
  addition to any other remedies provided herein, enter upon the Leased
  Property or any portion thereof and take possession of any and all of
  Tenant's Personal Property, if any, and the Records, without liability
  for trespass or conversion (Tenant hereby waiving any right to notice or
  hearing prior to such taking of possession by Landlord) and sell the
  same at public or private sale, after giving Tenant reasonable Notice of
  the time and place of any public or private sale, at which sale Landlord
  or its assigns may purchase all or any portion of Tenant's Personal
  Property, if any, unless otherwise prohibited by law.  Unless otherwise
  provided by law and without intending to exclude any other manner of
  giving Tenant reasonable notice, the requirement of reasonable Notice
  shall be met if such Notice is given at least five (5) days before the
  date of sale.  The proceeds from any such disposition, less all expenses
  incurred in connection with the taking of possession, holding and
  selling of such property (including, reasonable attorneys' fees) shall
  be applied as a credit against the indebtedness which is secured by the
  security interest granted in Section 7.2.  Any surplus shall be paid to
  Tenant or as otherwise required by law and Tenant shall pay any
  deficiency to Landlord, as Additional Charges, upon demand.

             12.2  Remedies.  None of (a) the termination of this Agreement
  pursuant to Section 12.1, (b) the repossession of the Leased Property or
  any portion thereof, (c) the failure of Landlord to re-let the Leased
  Property or any portion thereof, nor (d) the reletting of all or any of
  portion of the Leased Property, shall relieve Tenant of its liability
  and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive any such
  termination, repossession or re-letting.  In the event of any such
  termination, Tenant shall forthwith pay to Landlord all Rent due and
  payable with respect to the Leased Property through and including the
  date of such termination.  Thereafter, Tenant, until the end of what
  would have been the Term of this Agreement in the absence of such
  termination, and whether or not the Leased Property or any portion
  thereof shall have been re-let, shall be liable to Landlord for, and
  shall pay to Landlord, as current damages, the Rent and other charges
  which would be payable hereunder for the remainder of the Term had such
  termination not occurred, less the net proceeds, if any, of any re-
  letting of the Leased Property, after deducting all reasonable expenses
  in connection with such reletting, including, without limitation, all
  repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, attorneys'
  fees, advertising, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses
  of preparation for such reletting.  Tenant shall pay such current
  damages to Landlord monthly on the days on which the Minimum Rent would<PAGE>


                                     -42-

  have been payable hereunder if this Agreement had not been so terminated
  with respect to such of the Leased Property.

             At any time after such termination, whether or not Landlord
  shall have collected any such current damages, as liquidated final
  damages beyond the date of such termination, at Landlord's election,
  Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the present value
  (discounted at the Interest Rate) of the excess, if any, of the Rent and
  other charges which would be payable hereunder from the date of such
  termination (assuming that, for the purposes of this paragraph, annual
  payments by Tenant on account of Impositions and Additional Rent would
  be the same as payments required for the immediately preceding twelve
  calendar months, or if less than twelve calendar months have expired
  since the Commencement Date, the payments required for such lesser
  period projected to an annual amount) for what would be the then
  unexpired term of this Agreement if the same remained in effect, over
  the fair market rental for the same period.  Nothing contained in this
  Agreement shall, however, limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to
  prove and obtain in proceedings for bankruptcy or insolvency an amount
  equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at
  the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are
  to be proved, whether or not the amount be greater than, equal to, or
  less than the amount of the loss or damages referred to above. 

             In case of any Event of Default, re-entry, expiration and
  dispossession by summary proceedings or otherwise, Landlord may, subject
  to the rights of the Manager under the Management Agreement, (a) relet
  the Leased Property or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of
  Landlord or otherwise, for a term or terms which may at Landlord's
  option, be equal to, less than or exceed the period which would
  otherwise have constituted the balance of the Term and may grant
  concessions or free rent to the extent that Landlord considers advisable
  and necessary to relet the same, and (b) may make such reasonable
  alterations, repairs and decorations in the Leased Property or any
  portion thereof as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion,
  considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of reletting the
  Leased Property; and the making of such alterations, repairs and
  decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from
  liability hereunder as aforesaid.  Subject to the last sentence of this
  paragraph, Landlord shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever
  for any failure to relet all or any portion of the Leased Property, or,
  in the event that the Leased Property is relet, for failure to collect
  the rent under such reletting.  To the maximum extent permitted by law,
  Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted
  under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or
  dispossessed, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the
  Leased Property, by reason of the occurrence and continuation of an
  Event of Default hereunder.  Landlord covenants and agrees, in the event
  of any termination of this Agreement as a result of an Event of Default,
  to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages.

             12.3  Tenant's Waiver.  IF THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED
  PURSUANT TO SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2, TENANT WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED
  BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS
  TO ENFORCE THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE 12, AND THE BENEFIT OF<PAGE>


                                     -43-

  ANY LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE EXEMPTING PROPERTY FROM LIABILITY FOR
  RENT OR FOR DEBT.  IN ADDITION, TENANT UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND
  AGREES THAT, IN THE EVENT THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED PURSUANT TO
  SECTION 12.1 OR 12.2, NEITHER THE INITIAL DEFERRED PURCHASE PRICE OR THE
  OPTION DEFERRED PURCHASE PRICE (AS SUCH TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE
  PURCHASE AGREEMENT) SHALL BE PAID OR PAYABLE (TENANT WAIVING, ON BEHALF
  OF ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATED PERSONS, ALL CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTION
  WITH RESPECT THERETO).

             12.4  Application of Funds.  Any payments received by Landlord
  under any of the provisions of this Agreement during the existence or
  continuance of any Event of Default (and any payment made to Landlord
  rather than Tenant due to the existence of any Event of Default) shall
  be applied to Tenant's current and past due obligations under this
  Agreement in such order as Landlord may determine or as may be
  prescribed by the laws of the State.

             12.5  Landlord's Right to Cure Tenant's Default.  If an Event
  of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Landlord, after Notice
  to Tenant (which Notice shall not be required if Landlord shall
  reasonably determine immediate action is necessary to protect person or
  property), without waiving or releasing any obligation of Tenant and
  without waiving or releasing any Event of Default, may (but shall not be
  obligated to), at any time thereafter, make such payment or perform such
  act for the account and at the expense of Tenant, and may, to the
  maximum extent permitted by law, enter upon the Leased Property or any
  portion thereof for such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in
  Landlord's sole and absolute discretion, may be necessary or appropriate
  therefor.  No such entry shall be deemed an eviction of Tenant.  All
  reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
  attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together
  with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) at the Overdue
  Rate from the date such sums are paid by Landlord until repaid, shall be
  paid by Tenant to Landlord, on demand.

                                 HOLDING OVER

             Any holding over by Tenant after the expiration or sooner
  termination of this Agreement shall be treated as a daily tenancy at
  sufferance at a rate equal to one and one-half (1.5) times the Rent and
  other charges herein provided (prorated on a daily basis).  Tenant shall
  also pay to Landlord all damages (direct or indirect) sustained by
  reason of any such holding over.  Otherwise, such holding over shall be
  on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to the extent
  applicable.  Nothing contained herein shall constitute the consent,
  express or implied, of Landlord to the holding over of Tenant after the
  expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.<PAGE>

               LANDLORD'S NOTICE OBLIGATIONS; LANDLORD DEFAULT

             14.1  Landlord Notice Obligation.  Landlord shall give prompt
  Notice to Tenant and the Manager of any matters affecting the Leased
  Property of which Landlord receives written notice or actual knowledge
  and, to the extent Tenant otherwise has no notice or actual knowledge
  thereof, Landlord shall be liable for any liabilities arising from the
  failure to deliver such Notice to Tenant.  Landlord shall not amend [the
  Ground Lease,] the Management Agreement or any other agreement affecting
  the Leased Property without Tenant's prior written consent, which
  consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

             14.2  Landlord's Default.  If Landlord shall default in the
  performance or observance of any of its covenants or obligations set
  forth in this Agreement or any obligation of Landlord, if any, under any
  agreement affecting the Leased Property, the performance of which is not
  Tenant's obligation pursuant to this Agreement, and any such default
  shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after Notice thereof with
  respect to monetary defaults and thirty (30) days after Notice thereof
  with respect to non-monetary defaults from Tenant to Landlord and any
  applicable Hotel Mortgagee, or such additional period as may be
  reasonably required to correct the same, Tenant may declare the
  occurrence of a "Landlord Default" by a second Notice to Landlord and to
  such Hotel Mortgagee.  Thereafter, Tenant may forthwith cure the same
  and, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, invoice
  Landlord for costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees
  and court costs) incurred by Tenant in curing the same, together with
  interest thereon from the date Landlord receives Tenant's invoice, at
  the Overdue Rate.  Tenant shall have no right to terminate this
  Agreement for any default by Landlord hereunder and no right, for any
  such default, to offset or counterclaim against any Rent or other
  charges due hereunder.

             If Landlord shall in good faith dispute the occurrence of any
  Landlord Default and Landlord, before the expiration of the applicable
  cure period, shall give Notice thereof to Tenant, setting forth, in
  reasonable detail, the basis therefor, no Landlord Default shall be
  deemed to have occurred and Landlord shall have no obligation with
  respect thereto until final adverse determination thereof; provided,
  however, that in the event of any such adverse determination, Landlord
  shall pay to Tenant interest on any disputed funds at the Interest Rate,
  from the date demand for such funds was made by Tenant until the date of
  final adverse determination and, thereafter, at the Overdue Rate until
  paid.  If Tenant and Landlord shall fail, in good faith, to resolve any
  such dispute within ten (10) days after Landlord's Notice of dispute,
  either may submit the matter for resolution to a court of competent
  jurisdiction.

                          SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENT

             16.1  Subletting and Assignment.  Except as provided in
  Section 16.3 below, Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior written
  consent (which consent may be given or withheld in Landlord's sole and
  absolute discretion), assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or
  otherwise transfer this Agreement or sublease (which term shall be
  deemed to include the granting of concessions, licenses and the like),
  all or any part of the Leased Property or suffer or permit this
  Agreement or the leasehold estate created hereby or any other rights
  arising under this Agreement to be assigned, transferred, mortgaged,
  pledged, hypothecated or encumbered, in whole or in part, whether
  voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or
  operation of the Leased Property by anyone other than Tenant and the
  Manager, or the Leased Property to be offered or advertised for
  assignment or subletting.  For purposes of this Section 16.1, an
  assignment of this Agreement shall be deemed to include any direct or
  indirect transfer of any interest in Tenant such that Tenant shall cease
  to be a direct or indirect Subsidiary of Host or any transaction
  pursuant to which Tenant is merged or consolidated with another Entity
  or pursuant to which all or substantially all of Tenant's assets are
  transferred to any other Entity, as if such Change in Control or
  transaction were an assignment of this Agreement.  

             Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that Landlord
  shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition Landlord's consent
  to an assignment of this Agreement by Tenant provided that (i) Tenant
  shall simultaneously assign its interest under all of the Other Leases
  to the same assignee on the same terms and conditions, (ii) the Manager
  shall have granted its consent to such transfer and the Management
  Agreement and all of the other Management Agreements (as defined
  therein) under the Other Leases shall remain in full force and effect,
  (iii) such assignee shall, in Landlord's reasonable determination, have
  sufficient financial resources and liquidity to fulfill Tenant's
  obligations under this Agreement and the Other Leases, and (iv) such
  assignee shall not be under common control with or controlled by persons
  who have been convicted of felonies involving moral turpitude in any
  state or federal court.  If Tenant wishes to assign this Agreement as
  provided in this paragraph, Tenant shall give Landlord Notice thereof
  (the "Request Notice"), which Request Notice shall identify the proposed
  assignee and the terms and conditions of the assignment and shall
  include appropriate information relating to such assignee demonstrating
  compliance with the provisions of this paragraph.  Landlord shall,
  within sixty (60) days after the giving the Request Notice, give Notice
  to Tenant (the "Response Notice") as to whether Landlord consents to
  such transfer.  Landlord shall also have the right, exercisable by
  notice given in the Response Notice, to require Tenant to assign this
  Agreement to a Person designated by Landlord on the same terms and
  conditions as those described in the Request Notice for transfer to
  Tenant's proposed assignee.

             If this Agreement is assigned or if the Leased Property or any
  part thereof are sublet (or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, the<PAGE>


                                     -46-

  Manager and their respective employees) Landlord may collect the rents
  from such assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, and apply
  the net amount collected to the Rent herein reserved, but no such col-
  lection shall be deemed a waiver of the provisions set forth in the
  first paragraph of this Section 16.1, the acceptance by Landlord of such
  assignee, subtenant or occupant, as the case may be, as a tenant, or a
  release of Tenant from the future performance by Tenant of its 
  covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement.  
             No subletting or assignment shall in any way impair the
  continuing primary liability of Tenant hereunder (unless Landlord and
  Tenant expressly otherwise agree that Tenant shall be released from all
  obligations hereunder), and no consent to any subletting or assignment
  in a particular instance shall be deemed to be a waiver of the
  prohibition set forth in this Section 16.1.  No assignment, subletting
  or occupancy shall affect any Permitted Use.  Any subletting, assignment
  or other transfer of Tenant's interest under this Agreement in
  contravention of this Section 16.1 shall be voidable at Landlord's
  option.

             16.2  Required Sublease Provisions.  Any sublease of all or
  any portion of the Leased Property entered into on or after the date
  hereof shall be consistent with any applicable terms and conditions of
  the Management Agreement and shall provide (a) that it is subject and
  subordinate to this Agreement and to the matters to which this Agreement
  is or shall be subject or subordinate; (b) that in the event of termina-
  tion of this Agreement or reentry or dispossession of Tenant by Landlord
  under this Agreement, Landlord may, at its option, terminate such
  sublease or take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as
  sublessor under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord's
  option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of
  such sublease, except that neither Landlord nor any Hotel Mortgagee, as
  holder of a mortgage or as Landlord under this Agreement, if such
  mortgagee succeeds to that position, shall (i) be liable for any act or
  omission of Tenant under such sublease, (ii) be subject to any credit,
  counterclaim, offset or defense which theretofore accrued to such
  subtenant against Tenant, (iii) be bound by any previous modification of
  such sublease not consented to in writing by Landlord or by any previous
  prepayment of more than one (1) month's Rent, (iv) be bound by any
  covenant of Tenant to undertake or complete any construction of the
  Leased Property or any portion thereof, (v) be required to account for
  any security deposit of the subtenant other than any security deposit
  actually delivered to Landlord by Tenant, (vi) be bound by any
  obligation to make any payment to such subtenant or grant any credits,
  except for services, repairs, maintenance and restoration provided for
  under the sublease that are performed after the date of such attornment,
  (vii) be responsible for any monies owing by Tenant to the credit of
  such subtenant, or (viii) be required to remove any Person occupying any
  portion of the Leased Property; and (c), in the event that such
  subtenant receives a written Notice from Landlord or any Hotel Mortgagee
  stating that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such
  subtenant shall thereafter be obligated to pay all rentals accruing
  under such sublease directly to the party giving such Notice or as such
  party may direct.  All rentals received from such subtenant by Landlord
  or the Hotel Mortgagee, as the case may be, shall be credited against
  the amounts owing by Tenant under this Agreement and such sublease shall<PAGE>


                                     -47-

  provide that the subtenant thereunder shall, at the request of Landlord,
  execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of such agreement to
  attorn.  An original counterpart of each such sublease and assignment
  and assumption, duly executed by Tenant and such subtenant or assignee,
  as the case may be, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
  Landlord, shall be delivered promptly to Landlord and (a) in the case of
  an assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing and agree to keep
  and perform all of the terms of this Agreement on the part of Tenant to
  be kept and performed and shall be, and become, jointly and severally
  liable with Tenant for the performance thereof and (b) in case of either
  an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall remain primarily liable, as
  principal rather than as surety, for the prompt payment of the Rent and
  for the performance and observance of all of the covenants and condi-
  tions to be performed by Tenant hereunder.  

             The provisions of this Section 16.2 shall not be deemed a
  waiver of the provisions set forth in the first paragraph of Section
  16.1.

             16.3  Permitted Sublease.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, but
  subject to the provisions of Section 16.4 and any other express
  conditions or limitations set forth herein, Tenant may, in each instance
  after Notice to Landlord (unless otherwise provided in the Management
  Agreement), sublease space at the Leased Property for newsstand, gift
  shop, parking garage, health club, restaurant, bar or commissary
  purposes or similar concessions in furtherance of the Permitted Use, so
  long as such subleases do not demise, in the aggregate, in excess of
  three thousand (3,000) square feet, will not violate or affect any Legal
  Requirement or Insurance Requirement, and Tenant shall provide such
  additional insurance coverage applicable to the activities to be
  conducted in such subleased space as Landlord and any Hotel Mortgagee
  may reasonably require.

             16.4  Sublease Limitation.  For so long as Landlord or any
  Affiliated Person as to Landlord shall seek to qualify as a real estate
  investment trust, anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary
  notwithstanding, Tenant shall not sublet the Leased Property on any
  basis such that the rental to be paid by any sublessee thereunder would
  be based, in whole or in part, on either (a) the income or profits
  derived by the business activities of such sublessee, or (b) any other
  formula such that any portion of such sublease rental would fail to
  qualify as "rents from real property" within the meaning of Section
  856(d) of the Code, or any similar or successor provision thereto.

             arbitrator in any litigation to which Landlord is a party, for
             purposes of compliance therewith, provided that Landlord shall
             pay for any costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the

                               HOTEL MORTGAGES

             20.1  Landlord May Grant Liens.  Without the consent of Ten-
  ant, Landlord may, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
  Section 20.1, from time to time, directly or indirectly, create or
  otherwise cause to exist any lien, encumbrance or title retention
  agreement ("Encumbrance") upon the Leased Property, or any portion
  thereof or interest therein, whether to secure any borrowing or other
  means of financing or refinancing, provided that any such Encumbrance
  shall be consistent with the requirements of Article 6 of the Management
  Agreement.  Any such Encumbrance shall include the right to prepay
  (whether or not subject to a prepayment penalty) and shall provide
  (subject to Section 20.2) that it is subject to the rights of Tenant
  under this Agreement.

             20.2  Subordination of Lease.  Subject to Section 20.1 and
  this Section 20.2, this Agreement, any and all rights of Tenant
  hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to any ground or
  master lease, and all renewals, extensions, modifications and replace-
  ments thereof, and to all mortgages and deeds of trust, which may now or
  hereafter affect the Leased Property or any improvements thereon and/or
  any of such leases, whether or not such mortgages or deeds of trust
  shall also cover other lands and/or buildings and/or leases, to each and
  every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages and
  deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and
  extensions of such leases and such mortgages and deeds of trust and all
  consolidations of such mortgages and deeds of trust.  This section shall
  be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be
  required.  In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall promptly
  execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument that Landlord, the
  lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or the
  trustee or beneficiary of any deed of trust or any of their respective
  successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such
  subordination.  Any lease to which this Agreement is, at the time
  referred to, subject and subordinate is herein called "Superior Lease"
  and the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest at the
  time referred to, is herein called "Superior Landlord" and any mortgage
  or deed of trust to which this Agreement is, at the time referred to,
  subject and subordinate, is herein called "Superior Mortgage" and the
  holder, trustee or beneficiary of a Superior Mortgage is herein called
  "Superior Mortgagee".  Tenant shall have no obligations under any
  Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage other than those expressly set forth
  in this Section 20.2.

             If any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee or the nominee
  or designee of any Superior Landlord or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed
  to the rights of Landlord under this Agreement (any such person,
  "Successor Landlord"), whether through possession or foreclosure action
  or delivery of a new lease or deed, or otherwise, such Successor
  Landlord shall recognize Tenant's rights under this Agreement as herein
  provided and Tenant shall attorn to and recognize the Successor Landlord
  as Tenant's landlord under this Agreement and Tenant shall promptly
  execute and deliver any instrument that such Successor Landlord may<PAGE>


                                     -51-

  reasonably request to evidence such attornment (provided that such
  instrument does not alter the terms of this Agreement), whereupon, this
  Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease
  between the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms,
  conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Agreement, except that
  the Successor Landlord (unless formerly the landlord under this
  Agreement or its nominee or designee) shall not be (a) liable in any way
  to Tenant for any act or omission, neglect or default on the part of any
  prior Landlord under this Agreement, (b) responsible for any monies
  owing by or on deposit with any prior Landlord to the credit of Tenant
  (except to the extent actually paid or delivered to the Successor
  Landlord), (c) subject to any counterclaim or setoff which theretofore
  accrued to Tenant against any prior Landlord, (d) bound by any
  modification of this Agreement subsequent to such Superior Lease or
  Mortgage, or by any previous prepayment of Minimum Rent or Additional
  Rent for more than one (1) month in advance of the date due hereunder,
  which was not approved in writing by the Superior Landlord or the
  Superior Mortgagee thereto, (e) liable to Tenant beyond the Successor
  Landlord's interest in the Leased Property and the rents, income,
  receipts, revenues, issues and profits issuing from the Leased Property,
  (f) responsible for the performance of any work to be done by the
  Landlord under this Agreement to render the Leased Property ready for
  occupancy by Tenant (subject to Landlord's obligations under Section
  5.1.2(b) or with respect to any insurance or Condemnation proceeds), or
  (g) required to remove any Person occupying the Leased Property or any
  part thereof, except if such person claims by, through or under the
  Successor Landlord.  Tenant agrees at any time and from time to time to
  execute a suitable instrument in confirmation of Tenant's agreement to
  attorn, as aforesaid and Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with an
  instrument of nondisturbance and attornment from each such Superior
  Mortgagee and Superior Landlord (other than the lessor under the Ground
  Lease) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Tenant. 
  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Successor Landlord shall be liable
  (a) to pay, as and when required by the Purchase Agreement, to Tenant a
  pro rata portion of the Deferred Initial Purchase Price or Option
  Purchase Price (as such terms are defined in the Purchase Agreement) in
  accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and this Agreement,
  including Article 15, if and to the extent that the rights of the
  Sellers under the Purchase Agreement with respect to such Deferred
  Purchase Prices shall have been assigned to Tenant, (b) to pay to Tenant
  any amounts owed under Section 5.1.2(b), and (c) to pay to Tenant any
  portions of insurance proceeds or Awards received by Landlord or the

                                MISCELLANEOUS

             22.1  Limitation on Payment of Rent.  All agreements between
  Landlord and Tenant herein are hereby expressly limited so that in no
  contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of
  Rent, or otherwise, shall the Rent or any other amounts payable to
  Landlord under this Agreement exceed the maximum permissible under
  applicable law, the benefit of which may be asserted by Tenant as a
  defense, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any
  provision of this Agreement, at the time performance of such provision
  shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity
  prescribed by law, or if from any circumstances Landlord should ever
  receive as fulfillment of such provision such an excessive amount, then,
  ipso facto, the amount which would be excessive shall be applied to the
  reduction of the installment(s) of Minimum Rent next due and not to the
  payment of such excessive amount.  This provision shall control every
  other provision of this Agreement and any other agreements between
  Landlord and Tenant.

             22.2  No Waiver.  No failure by Landlord or Tenant to insist
  upon the strict performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right,
  power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, and no acceptance of
  full or partial payment of Rent during the continuance of any such
  breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or of any such
  term.  To the maximum extent permitted by law, no waiver of any breach
  shall affect or alter this Agreement, which shall continue in full force
  and effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach.

             22.3  Remedies Cumulative.  To the maximum extent permitted by
  law, each legal, equitable or contractual right, power and remedy of
  Landlord or Tenant, now or hereafter provided either in this Agreement
  or by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall
  be in addition to every other right, power and remedy and the exercise
  or beginning of the exercise by Landlord or Tenant (as applicable) of
  any one or more of such rights, powers and remedies shall not preclude
  the simultaneous or subsequent exercise by Landlord of any or all of
  such other rights, powers and remedies.<PAGE>


                                     -56-

             22.4  Severability.  Any clause, sentence, paragraph, section
  or provision of this Agreement held by a court of competent jurisdiction
  to be invalid, illegal or ineffective shall not impair, invalidate or 
  nullify the remainder of this Agreement, but rather the effect thereof
  shall be confined to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section or
  provision so held to be invalid, illegal or ineffective, and this
  Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or ineffective
  provisions had never been contained therein.

             22.5  Acceptance of Surrender.  No surrender to Landlord of
  this Agreement or of the Leased Property or any part thereof, or of any
  interest therein, shall be valid or effective unless agreed to and
  accepted in writing by Landlord and no act by Landlord or any
  representative or agent of Landlord, other than such a written
  acceptance by Landlord, shall constitute an acceptance of any such
  surrender.

             22.6  No Merger of Title.  It is expressly acknowledged and
  agreed that it is the intent of the parties that there shall be no
  merger of this Agreement or of the leasehold estate created hereby by
  reason of the fact that the same Person may acquire, own or hold,
  directly or indirectly this Agreement or the leasehold estate created
  hereby and the fee estate or ground landlord's interest in the Leased
  Property.

             22.7  Conveyance by Landlord.  If Landlord or any successor
  owner of all or any portion of the Leased Property shall convey all or
  any portion of the Leased Property in accordance with the terms hereof
  other than as security for a debt, and the grantee or transferee of such
  of the Leased Property shall expressly assume all obligations of
  Landlord hereunder arising or accruing from and after the date of such
  conveyance or transfer, Landlord or such successor owner, as the case
  may be, shall thereupon be released from all future liabilities and
  obligations of Landlord under this Agreement with respect to such of the
  Leased Property arising or accruing from and after the date of such
  conveyance or other transfer and all such future liabilities and
  obligations shall thereupon be binding upon the new owner.

             22.8  Quiet Enjoyment.  Provided that no Event of Default
  shall have occurred and be continuing, Tenant shall peaceably and
  quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Property for the Term, free of
  hindrance or molestation by Landlord or anyone claiming by, through or
  under Landlord, but subject to (a) any Encumbrance permitted under
  Article 20 or otherwise permitted to be created by Landlord hereunder,
  (b) all Permitted Encumbrances, (c) liens as to obligations of Landlord
  that are either not yet due or which are being contested in good faith
  and by proper proceedings, provided the same do not materially interfere
  with Tenant's ability to operate the Hotel and (d) liens that have been
  consented to in writing by Tenant.  Except as otherwise provided in this
  Agreement, no failure by Landlord to comply with the foregoing covenant
  shall give Tenant any right to cancel or terminate this Agreement or
  abate, reduce or make a deduction from or offset against the Rent or any
  other sum payable under this Agreement, or to fail to perform any other
  obligation of Tenant hereunder.  <PAGE>

             hereunder shall be deemed to have been given for all purposes
             of this Agreement upon the date of acknowledged receipt, in
             the case of a notice by telecopier, and, in all other cases,
             upon the date of receipt or refusal, except that whenever
             under this Agreement a notice is either received on a day
