Equity Inns, Inc. (the  "Company")  currently owns 96 hotels (the "Hotels") with
an aggregate of 12,284 rooms.  The Company,  through its  ownership  interest in
Equity  Inns  Partnership,  L.P.,  leases 75 of the  Hotels to  subsidiaries  of
Interstate Hotels Company  ("Interstate") and its 19 AmeriSuites brand Hotels to
a subsidiary of Prime Hospitality Corp.,  pursuant to percentage lease agreement
("Percentage Leases") that provide for annual rent equal to the greater of (i) a
fixed  annual  base rent  ("Base  Rent") or (ii)  percentage  rent  based on the
revenues of the hotels ("Percentage  Rent"). Base Rent and the revenue threshold
amounts for Percentage  Rent generally  adjust  annually based on changes in the
Consumer Price Index ("CPI").  The remaining two Hotels are operated pursuant to
management agreements, one by Interstate and one by CapStar Hotel Co.

The following sets forth, as of May 31, 2000, (i) the annual Base Rent, (ii) the
annual  Percentage Rent formula,  and (iii) the effective date of the Percentage
Lease for each  Hotel  subject  to a  Percentage  Lease,  including  any and all
adjustments to date for changes in the CPI.
