ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
This Current Report on Form 8-K is filed to report 1997 acquisitions of
hotels and proposed acquisitions of hotels by FelCor Suites Limited
Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the Partnership), of which FelCor
Suite Hotels, Inc., a Maryland corporation (individually and collectively, the
"Company"), is its sole general partner.
RECENT ACQUISITIONS
From January 1, 1997 through May 16, 1997, the Company completed in five
separate transactions, the acquisition of interests in 16 hotels with 3,707
suites at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $216 million plus the
Company's prorata share of unconsolidated nonrecourse debt of $49.2 million.
On February 1, 1997, the Company acquired 50% partnership interests in
eight existing Embassy Suites(R) hotels located in Atlanta (Perimeter Center),
Georgia; Kansas City (Country Club Plaza), Missouri; Overland Park, Kansas;
Raleigh, North Carolina; San Antonio (Northwest), Texas; Austin (Airport
North), Texas; Covina, California; and Secaucus, New Jersey with a total of
1,934 suites for approximately $58 million, plus a 50% share of approximately
$86 million in existing non-recourse debt. A subsidiary of Promus Hotel
Corporation ("Promus") holds the remaining 50% partnership interests in these
hotels. The Company also acquired 100% ownership in two Embassy Suites hotels
located in Bloomington, Minnesota and Omaha, Nebraska with a total of 408
suites for approximately $39 million. These two hotels were subsequently
converted to Doubletree Guest Suites(R) hotels on May 1, 1997. The purchase of
the interests in these hotels was financed primarily from the proceeds of an
underwritten public offering of 3 million shares of Common Stock of the
Company, which resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $100.7
million.
On February 18, 1997, the Company acquired the 215-suite Embassy Suites -
Los Angeles Airport (LAX North) hotel for approximately $22 million from a
Japanese-owned limited partnership which had filed for bankruptcy. The hotel
will remain an Embassy Suites hotel managed by Promus.
On February 21, 1997, the Company acquired the 198-suite Hilton Inn and
Suites (R) hotel in Dana Point, California for approximately $18 million. The
Dana Point hotel was converted to a Doubletree Guest Suites hotel in May 1997
and is managed by a subsidiary of Doubletree Hotels Corporation ("Doubletree").
On March 20, 1997, the Company acquired, through a 90% owned partnership,
interests in three Doubletree Guest Suites hotels, totaling 691 suites, located
in Troy, Michigan; Austin (Downtown), Texas; and near the Baltimore Washington
International (BWI) Airport, Maryland. The Company paid approximately $72
million for its 90% partnership interest and Doubletree paid approximately $8
million for its 10% limited partnership interest. Doubletree will continue to
manage the hotels.
On May 16, 1997, the Company acquired a 50% interest in the 261-suite San
Antonio (Airport), Texas Embassy Suites hotel for approximately $6.5 million in
cash and units of limited partnership interests ("Units") of the Partnership
plus a 50% share of approximately $12.4 million in existing nonrecourse debt.

Report of Independent Public Accountants
To the Partners of EPT Atlanta Perimeter Center Limited Partnership,
EPT Austin Limited Partnership, EPT Bloomington Limited
Partnership, EPT Covina Limited Partnership, EPT Kansas City
Limited Partnership, EPT Omaha Limited Partnership, EPT
Overland Park Limited Partnership, EPT Raleigh Limited
Partnership and EPT San Antonio Limited Partnership:
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of the partnerships
identified in Note 1 (Delaware limited partnerships, the "Partnerships"), as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related combined statements of operations,
partners' capital and cash flows for the years then ended. These combined
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnerships' management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the
Partnerships as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Cash and Cash Equivalents-
Cash and cash equivalents includes short-term interest bearing accounts with
original maturities of 90 days or less.
Pervasiveness of Estimates-
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment-
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of normal repairs and
maintenance are expensed while major expenditures which extend the useful lives
of the assets are capitalized.
15
<PAGE> 16
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued):
Depreciation-
Provisions for depreciation are computed using the straight-line method over
the following average estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Building and improvements 15-40 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 2-10 years
</TABLE>
Other Assets-
Other assets consist primarily of unamortized deferred financing costs which
are being amortized over the term of the related debt (Note 3).
Deferred Credits-
Deferred credits represent unamortized deferred income on long-term contracts
with a third party provider of in-suite movie services. The credits are being
amortized into other revenues over the term of the related contracts.
Partners' Capital-
The Partnerships' Agreements provide that items of income or loss, with certain
defined exceptions, together with any contributions from or distributions to
partners, are to be allocated on the basis of the partners' percentage
ownership interests.
Revenue Recognition-
Suite revenue represents revenue derived from the rental of suites for the
hotels owned by the Partnerships.
Reclassifications-
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.
2. INCOME TAXES:
No provision is made in the accounts of the Partnerships for federal and state
income taxes, as such taxes are liabilities of the individual partners. The
Partnerships' income tax returns and the amount of allocable partnership
profits or losses are subject to examination by federal and state taxing
authorities. If such examinations result in changes to the partnership profits
or losses, the income tax liability of the partners may also change.
The accounting records of the Partnerships are maintained on the accrual basis
of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
combined net income (loss) reflected in the accompanying statements of
operations differs from amounts reported in the Partnerships' federal income
tax returns (if combined) because of differences in accounting policies adopted
for financial and tax reporting purposes.

partners, are to be allocated on the basis of the partners' percentage
ownership interests.
Revenue Recognition-
Suites revenue represents revenue derived from the rental of suites for the
hotel owned by the Partnership.
Reclassifications-
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.
2. INCOME TAXES:
No provision is made in the accounts of the Partnership for federal and state
income taxes, as such taxes are liabilities of the individual partners. The
Partnership's income tax returns and the amount of allocable partnership
profits or losses are subject to examination by federal and state taxing
authorities. If such examinations result in changes to partnership profits or
losses, the income tax liability of the partners may also change.
The accounting records of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis
of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
net income (loss) reflected in the accompanying statements of operations
differs from amounts reported in the Partnership's federal income tax return
because of differences in accounting policies adopted for financial and tax
reporting purposes.
The table below reconciles these differences for the years ended December 31:

3. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION:
The Partnership purchased its land and building and substantially all of its
furniture, fixtures and equipment pursuant to a capital lease expiring on
October 31, 2011. The lease provides for minimum fixed monthly rent of
$137,279, as well as minimum variable monthly rentals of $12,500. The variable
rent is 4% of gross suites revenue and 1% of food and beverage revenue. PHI
has agreed to pay any variable rent in excess of 3.5% of gross suites revenue.
All variable monthly rentals in excess of $12,500 are recorded as rent expense.
The Partnership recorded rent expense of $207,416 and $167,101 in 1996 and
1995, respectively, which is included in other expense in the accompanying
statements of operations. The interest portion of the minimum lease payments
was $1,427,826 and $1,467,394 in 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Future minimum lease payments under this lease agreement as of December 31,
1996, are as follows:

============
</TABLE>
4. RESTAURANT RENTAL:
On April 1, 1994, the Hotel restaurant was leased to a third party, pursuant to
a ten-year lease agreement with one five-year renewal at the lessee's option.
In accordance with the lease agreement, no rental payments were due during the
first two years of the lease term. During 1996, the agreement was amended to
extend this provision until April 1, 1997. Thereafter, monthly rentals are
equal to 3% of restaurant gross revenues, as defined.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
Management Fees-
The Hotel is managed by PHI, pursuant to a management agreement with the
Partnership. The terms of the management agreement provide for a base
management fee equal to 5% of adjusted gross revenues, as defined. Incentive
management fees are due when operating levels of the Partnership exceed a
specified amount. No incentive management fees were earned in 1996 or 1995.
Marketing and Reservation Assessment-
The Partnership paid to Promus a combined marketing and reservation assessment
equal to 3.5% of net suites revenue in 1996 and 1995. Total marketing and
reservation assessments incurred were $343,543 in 1996 and $301,314 in 1995 and
are included in administrative and general expense.
28
<PAGE> 29
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued):
Operating Services-
Promus provided insurance coverage and various other services to the
Partnership at a total cost of $174,272 and $199,766 in 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
Due to Promus-
In addition to the fees and services discussed above, the Partnership
reimburses Promus for payroll and other operating costs paid by Promus on
behalf of the Partnership.
Cash Accounts Shared With Affiliates-
Prior to July 2, 1996, the Partnership shared a credit card depository account
and a short-term investment account with nine affiliated partnerships. Each
was accounted for on an individual partnership basis. Cash shortfalls were
funded from capital contributions, which were made through capital
distributions from affiliated partnerships with cash surpluses. During 1995,
the Partnership received $492,395 in contributions and made distributions of
$806,279. During 1996, no such contributions or distributions were made.
After July 1, 1996, the Partnership established a separate credit card
depository account and short-term investment account, and therefore no longer
shares the accounts with the nine affiliated partnerships.
6. RESTRICTED ASSETS:
The management agreement specifies that the Partnership establish a reserve
fund for ordinary capital replacements necessary to maintain and operate the
Hotel in accordance with operational standards of Promus. This reserve is
funded through monthly deposits of an amount equal to 3% of gross revenues, as
defined. Withdrawals from this fund are restricted to the purchase of capital
replacements, alterations, additions and improvements. At December 31, 1996,
the Partnership had made capital expenditures above the required level by
approximately $1,189,000, which was funded from operating cash.
The management agreement also specifies that the Partnership maintain a minimum
cash balance for working capital requirements. At December 31, 1996, the
amount of this required minimum balance was $200,000.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
On January 24, 1997, the Partnership, along with EPT, signed a Partnership
Interest Purchase Agreement with FelCor Suites Limited Partnership ("FelCor")
and FelCor/Eight Hotels, L.L.C.
As of February 1, 1997, GE EPT transferred its entire limited and general
partnership interest in capital and 99.8% of its interest in profits in the
Partnership, to FelCor. Promus entered into a ten-year management agreement
with the new partnership with DJONT Leasing, L.L.C., an affiliate of FelCor.
The agreement calls for a basic management fee of 5% of adjusted gross revenue
less 4% of suite revenues. The agreement also calls for an incentive
management fee of 50% of the combined partnership and seven affiliated hotel
partnership's hotel income before lessee's overhead expenses, up to a maximum
of 3% of the aggregate adjusted gross revenues to the Partnership and the seven
affiliated hotel partnerships.

Report of Independent Auditors
The Partners of AEW Doubletree Portfolio
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet as of December 31,

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of

statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the combined financial position of AEW Doubletree

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. THE REPORTING ENTITY
The AEW Doubletree Portfolio (the Partnerships) is comprised of three
limited partnerships, each of which own a hotel property operating under a
Doubletree Guest Suites brand. B.D. Eastrich No. 1 Limited Partnership was
formed on December 21, 1994, under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, for the purpose of acquiring and operating the Austin,
Texas Doubletree Guest Suites hotel (Austin). B.D. Eastrich BWI No. 1
Limited Partnership and B.D. Eastrich Troy No. 1 Limited Partnership were
both formed on May 5, 1995, under the laws of the State of Delaware, for
the purpose of acquiring and operating the Baltimore/Washington
International Airport (BWI) and the Troy, Michigan (Troy) Doubletree Guest
Suites hotels.
The limited partner interests of the Partnerships are owned by AEW
Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. The general partner
interests of the Partnerships are owned by separate limited partnerships
or limited liability companies which are ultimately owned by AEW Partners,
L.P. AEW Partners, L.P. is treating these three partnerships as a separate
portfolio and therefore the reporting entity is the combined financial
statements of the Partnerships. All significant intercompany transactions
have been eliminated upon combination.
The financial statements exclude the results of operations and balances of
beverage sales at Austin. In accordance with Texas state law, the beverage
sales must be performed by an organization chartered domestically.
Austin consists of 189 guest rooms, a restaurant, a fitness center and
5,000 square feet of meeting space. BWI consists of 251 guest rooms, a
restaurant and lounge, a fitness center and 5,800 square feet of meeting
space. Troy consists of 251 guest rooms, a restaurant and lounge, a
fitness center and 5,800 square feet of meeting space.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CASH AND EQUIVALENTS
Cash consists of cash in interest bearing checking accounts. The
Partnerships consider all liquid investments with maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash consists of real estate tax escrows as well as cash
reserved for future capital improvements relating to the Partnerships'
property and equipment.
INVENTORIES
Inventories, consisting primarily of food, beverage, and gift shop
merchandise are carried at the lower of cost or market using the first-in,
first-out method.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS
Buildings and improvements are stated at cost, and are depreciated using
the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, generally 30
years.
FURNITURE, FIXTURES, AND EQUIPMENT
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are stated at cost, and depreciated
using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives,
generally five years.
ORGANIZATIONAL AND DEFERRED FINANCING COST
Organizational and deferred financing costs are amortized using the
straight-line method over three years or the term of the related long-term
debt, respectively. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1996 was
$951,673.
ADVERTISING
The Partnerships expense advertising cost as incurred. During 1996, the
Partnerships expensed $62,142 relating to advertising.
INCOME TAXES
Under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Partnerships are not
taxable entities; accordingly, taxable income or losses are allocated to
the partners of each partnership for inclusion in their respective income
tax returns. No provision for income taxes has been included in the
accompanying financial statements.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the combined financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
3. LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt at December 31, 1996 consists of three mortgage notes
payable secured by all three hotel properties with a combined carrying
value of $51,844,413.

4. COMMITMENTS
The hotel operations of each of the Partnerships are managed by Doubletree
Partners (Doubletree). Doubletree is currently managing the hotel
properties under management agreements (the Agreements) which expire
approximately ten years from the date of purchase. The Agreements provide
for a base management fee and an incentive management fee to Doubletree
based on a percentage of the Partnerships' gross revenues, or excess cash
flow, respectively, both as defined in the Agreements. In connection with
the Agreements, the Partnerships incurred management fees of $642,805 and
incentive management fees of $164,533 for the year ended December 31,
1996.
In addition, as defined in the Agreements, a Sale Termination Bonus is
required to be paid to Doubletree in the event that the net proceeds from
the sale, as defined, exceed the preferred return to the partners of the
Partnerships.

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
On March 20, 1997, the Partnership sold the three hotels for approximately
$80,100,000.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners of PSH Master L.P. I:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of PSH Master L.P. I (the
"Partnership") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of
operations, partners' deficit, and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our report dated February 14, 1997, we did not express an opinion on the
financial statements of the Partnership for the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996 because the Partners' capital deficiency and uncertainty
regarding the Partnership's ability to make the final payment on the mortgage
loan on August 1, 1997 or refinance the debt raised substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 12, on April 22,
1997 the Partnership entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell all its
hotels. Accordingly, our present opinion on such financial statements, as
expressed herein, is different from our prior report on such financial
statements.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Partnership will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 12 to the
financial statements, on April 22, 1997, the Partnership entered into a purchase
and sale agreement to sell all of its hotels to FelCor Suites Limited
Partnership; the sales transaction, distribution of all net proceeds and
liquidation of the Partnership is contingent upon approval by the unit holders
of a majority of the outstanding units of the Partnership. Additionally, the
consummation of the sale is contingent upon the written approval by the land
lessor of one of the properties. These matters raise substantial doubt about
the Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements of PSH Master L.P. I (the
Partnership) have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course
of business. The Partnership incurred net losses from inception through 1995.
However, in 1996 the Partnership realized net income of $434,196. Net losses
for the years 1995 and 1994 were ($770,442) and ($1,073,093), respectively. The
Partnership had a partners' deficit of ($8,597,925) at December 31, 1996.
The final payment on the Partnership's real estate mortgage notes due on
August 1, 1997 (see Note 7), the accumulated Partners' deficits and the
uncertainty of the Partnership's ability to refinance the first mortgage debt
on maturity, raise substantial doubt about the Partnership's ability to
continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary should the Partnership be unable to
continue as a going concern. The General Partner is presently in discussion
with potential buyers of all three hotels. The General Partner believes
that the hotels can be sold or refinanced prior to the maturity of the existing
mortgage debt. To sell all three hotels within a twelve-month period, the
General Partner must seek the approval from the holders of a majority of the
Units of Limited Partnership Interest (see Note 12).
(2) BANKRUPTCY OF GENERAL PARTNER
On February 1, 1991, PC Development Limited Partnership, the General
Partner, along with one of its general partners and two affiliated
corporations, filed for protection from creditors under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code. On December 30, 1991, the debtors filed a Joint Plan of
Reorganization and Disclosure Statement and, on April 19, 1992, the court
confirmed the Plan.
An unsecured claim in the amount of $5,038,658 was filed in the bankruptcy
case on behalf of the Partnership due to the General Partner's default under
the Performance and Break-even Guaranty (the Guaranty Agreement). Total
payments received to date by the Partnership against its unsecured claim total
$757,870. The Partnership expects to receive total payments of approximately
$2,000,000, including amounts previously received. This amount includes
operating profits and sale proceeds from a hotel owned by the General Partner.
Due to the remaining variables in the Plan, however, there are no assurances as
to the actual amount to be received. The Plan also provides that PC
Development Limited Partnership will continue as the General Partner of the
Partnership.
(3) ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership formed on April 3, 1987.
The Partnership will continue in existence until the close of Partnership
business on December 31, 2037, or until its earlier termination in accordance
with the provisions of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership (the Partnership Agreement).
On July 23, 1987, the Partnership received the net proceeds of an initial
public offering of 3,110,000 Units of Limited Partner Interest representing
gross offering proceeds of $31,100,000. On July 30, 1987, the Partnership
purchased from its General Partner the Tampa hotel and the Disney hotel. On
December 15, 1987, the Partnership purchased and opened the Raleigh/Durham
hotel.
The Partnership is a party to a Management Agreement with Doubletree to
operate and manage the hotels. The Management Agreement expires on December
29, 2011 with two consecutive ten year renewal options. The Partnership pays a
base management fee of 4.75% of hotel revenues. Doubletree assessed the
properties three and one-half percent of total departmental revenues for
national advertising during 1994 and four percent of room revenues for national
44
<PAGE> 45
advertising and centralized reservation services in 1995. Effective January 1,
1996, Doubletree assessed the properties three and one-half percent of room
revenues for national advertising and centralized reservation services. Other
centralized services such as accounting are provided by Doubletree to the
Partnership's properties based upon each hotel's share of such costs.
(4) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The Partnership's significant accounting policies are as follows:
Inventories:
Inventories, consisting principally of food and beverages, are valued at
the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Property and equipment:
The initial purchase price allocation to land, leasehold interest in land,
hotels, and furniture, fixtures and equipment was based upon independent
appraisals obtained in connection with the public offering. Any cash payments
made by the General Partner pursuant to its Guaranty Agreement (see Notes 2, 9,
and 10) are recorded as a reduction in the purchase price originally allocated
to the hotels. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease terms, as
follows:
Leasehold interest in land--initial lease life of 45 years; hotels--45
years; furniture, fixtures and equipment--3, 5, and 10 years.
China, glass, linen and silver:
A portion of the initial purchase price was allocated to china, glass,
linen and silver for the amounts on-hand on the date of acquisition. The base
stock method of accounting is used whereby the cost of maintaining and
replenishing the base stock is expensed as incurred.
Deferred financing fees and organization costs:
Deferred financing fees are amortized over the life of the related loans
and credit agreements using the straight- line method. Organization costs are
amortized over five years using the straight-line method. Such fees and costs
are net of accumulated amortization of $1,570,798 and $1,380,640 at December
31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively.
Self-Insurance Program:
The Partnership uses a retrospective self-insurance plan for workers'
compensation. A provision has been made in the financial statements, based on
information currently available, which represents the expected future payments
based on the estimated ultimate cost for incidents incurred prior to the
balance sheet dates. Encompassed in this provision are refundable workers'
compensation deposits which result from deposit payments made in excess of the
estimated ultimate cost expected to be incurred.
45
<PAGE> 46
Cash and cash equivalents:
The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash is primarily
held in one bank.
(5) REPLACEMENT RESERVE FUND
As required under current debt agreements the Partnership funded
replacement reserves based upon revenue percentages of 2% for the Tampa and
Raleigh/Durham hotels and 3% for the Disney hotel during 1995, and 1994.
Beginning in 1996 replacement reserves were calculated at 4% of revenues at all
three hotels. During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
$990,026, $526,745, and $503,104 respectively, were reserved to fund capital
improvements.
(6) LEASES
The land for the Disney hotel is leased by the Partnership under an
operating lease, the initial term of which expires March 11, 2032, with a
renewal option for an additional period of 25 years. The Partnership pays
annual rent based upon specified percentages of suite, food and beverage, and
other hotel revenues, subject to a $100,000 minimum annual rent. Rent is
computed and paid quarterly. Rent expense under this lease was $726,177 in
1996, $596,269 in 1995, and $592,453 in 1994.
(7) REAL ESTATE MORTGAGE NOTES
The nonrecourse notes in the original aggregate amount of $43,300,000 are
secured by the first mortgages on the hotels, including the ground lease at the
Disney hotel. In February, 1991, the lender applied $2,000,000 of the General
Partner's funds, previously held in escrow, against the principal balance of
the notes. On May 26, 1993, the Partnership modified certain terms of the
mortgage loan documents. Accordingly, during 1993 unpaid interest accruing in
the aggregate amount of $4,876,267 was added to the principal balance of the
mortgage computed at the contract rate of 10.25%. Additionally, the
Partnership borrowed $219,000 during 1993 to pay for closing costs incurred
with the modifications. Beginning in February, 1994 interest was payable at an
annual rate of 10.25% of $41,300,000 (original loan balance). During 1994,
1995 and 1996, the Partnership made monthly payments of principal and interest
on the outstanding principal of $46,395,267 based upon a 30-year amortization
schedule. A final payment, which will include principal of $45,502,185 and
interest, is due on August 1, 1997. The lender will also receive 25% of the
net proceeds, as defined, at the sale of the hotels, or 25% of the net proceeds
based upon market value if the hotels are not sold prior to the maturity of the
loan, as appreciation interest.
The Partnership is subject to prepayment penalties at all times except on
the interest adjustment date and during the last three months of the loan term.
Any future subordinate financing to be secured by all or any of the hotels is
subject to the lender's prior consent.
Due to the Partnership's current financial condition and excessive cost,
assessment of the fair value was determined to be impracticable.
(8) NOTE PAYABLE
On October 26, 1994, the Partnership borrowed $500,000 from Doubletree for
capital improvements. This nonrecourse note is secured by second mortgages on
the hotels and is due at the termination of the management agreement with
Doubletree (see Note 3). Interest is computed at 10.25% payable monthly in
arrears and payment is equal to the lesser of the monthly computed interest due
or monthly available cash flow from the Partnership.
46
<PAGE> 47
Due to the Partnership's current financial condition and excessive cost,
assessment of the fair value was determined to be impracticable.
(9) RELATED PARTIES
The General Partner, an affiliate, is generally empowered by the
Partnership Agreement to conduct, direct and exercise full control over all
activities of the Partnership.
Total fees charged by Doubletree to the Partnership for management,
advertising, reservation and accounting services were $2,151,820, $1,793,723
and $1,919,253 during 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Nuho Company, a
successor to PH Management Company (a previous management company) pursuant to
the bankruptcy plan, received residual management fees of $579,078, $515,669,
and $487,783 during 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. These fees were used
by Nuho Company to fund required payments to the creditors in the bankruptcy,
including the Partnership.
(10) PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS
Pursuant to the terms of the renegotiated debt, the Partnership is
precluded from making cash distributions to the partners until such time as the
interest capitalized by the lender (see Note 7) has been repaid. This is not
expected to occur prior to the maturity of the first mortgage loans on August
1, 1997.
Cash flow available for distribution will be distributed 99 percent to the
Unitholders and 1 percent to the General Partner until the Unitholders have
received cash distributions sufficient to provide a 10 percent (11 percent for
the fiscal years 1987 through 1990) non-compounded, cumulative return on the
weighted average balances of the net invested capital (originally $31,100,000
in the aggregate) outstanding during such year. Any remaining cash flow
available for distribution in excess of the foregoing amounts will be
distributed 15 percent to the General Partner and 85 percent to the
Unitholders, until the General Partner has received an amount equal to 10
percent of all cash flow available for distribution which has been distributed
and, thereafter, 90 percent to the Unitholders and 10 percent to the General
Partner.
Sale or refinancing proceeds, net of any appreciation interest due the
lender (see Note 7), will be distributed 99 percent to the Unitholders and 1
percent to the General Partner until the Unitholders have received (from all
prior distributions of cash, regardless of source) a 10 percent non-compounded,
cumulative return on their weighted average net invested capital and a return
of their net invested capital balances. Any remaining sale or refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 70 percent to the Unitholders and 30 percent to
the General Partner.
Distributions resulting from a liquidation of the Partnership will be paid
to the Partners in accordance with their positive capital account balances
after such balances have been adjusted to reflect allocations of taxable income
and taxable loss.
For federal income tax purposes, taxable income, whether from operations or
the sale of a hotel, is allocated first to restore any deficit balances of the
General Partner and Unitholders on a proportionate basis. Unitholders and the
General Partner are then allocated taxable income 99 percent and 1 percent,
respectively, (to the extent of cash distributions in this ratio) until the
Unitholders have been allocated an amount equal to their net invested capital
plus a 10 percent (11 percent for fiscal years 1987 through 1990)
non-compounded, cumulative return on the weighted average balances of the net
invested capital outstanding plus all prior distributions to the Unitholders of
sale or refinancing proceeds. Thereafter, taxable income is allocated in the
same proportions as and to the extent of distributions of cash.
For federal income tax purposes, taxable loss, whether from operations or
the sale of a hotel, is allocated first to the extent of previously allocated
taxable income in excess of distributions of cash and, thereafter, 99 percent
to the Unitholders and one percent to the General Partner, except that the
General Partner shall receive a special loss allocation
47
<PAGE> 48
to the extent of its cash payments pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement.
Unitholders of record on the last day of each month will be allocated the
proportionate share of income or loss for that entire month.
Cash payments made by the General Partner pursuant to its Guaranty
Agreement have been recorded as a reduction of the purchase price of the
hotels. Accordingly, net property and equipment has been reduced by
$10,469,829, reflecting $12,477,870 in payments by the General Partner net of
accumulated depreciation of $2,008,041, through December 31, 1996. The equity
accounts of the Limited Partners and the General Partner reflect a 99 percent
and 1 percent allocation, respectively, of cumulative losses through December
31, 1996.
(11) INCOME TAXES
Partnership taxable income or loss is allocated to the Partners according
to the Partnership Agreement for inclusion in the determination of their
taxable income. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements include no
provision for income taxes. The Partnership has considered statement of
Financial Accounting Standard Number 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" and,
given the cumulative operating losses, has concluded that this standard has no
impact on the Partnership's current financial statements.
The net income for 1996, as reported on the Partnership's federal tax
return was $535,339. The net losses for 1995 and 1994, as reported on the
Partnership's federal tax return were ($701,970) and ($1,934,790),
respectively, and differ from the net losses as reported in the accompanying
financial statements primarily due to the difference between tax and book
depreciation charges. This difference is due principally to cash payments made
by the General Partner pursuant to its Guaranty Agreement (See Note 2) being
recorded as a capital contribution for tax purposes versus a reduction in net
property and equipment for financial reporting purposes and different
depreciation lives for tax and book purposes. The net income/(losses) for tax
purposes allocable to the Unitholders during 1996, 1995, and 1994 were $331,167
or $.11 per unit, ($653,778) or ($.21) per unit, and ($1,862,502) or ($.60)
per unit, respectively.
Under the Revenue Act of 1987, the Partnership's interest income is taxable
to its Partners in the current year as portfolio income while the loss from
operations for tax purposes is suspended. This suspended loss can only be used
to offset future taxable income of the Partnership or can be recognized by a
partner upon a complete disposition of his interest in the Partnership. The
provision of the Revenue Act of 1987 which taxes publicly traded partnerships
as corporations does not apply to PSH Master L.P. I until 1998.
The Revenue Act of 1987 included a provision which will treat
publicly-traded partnerships, such as the Partnership, as corporations for
Federal income tax purposes beginning January 1, 1998. The effect of treating
publicly-traded partnerships as corporations will be to tax the income of the
partnership at the entity level and reflect distributions to partners as
dividends. Additional costs to the Partnership for such taxes would reduce the
amount available for distribution to the partners.
(12) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 22, 1997 the Partnership entered into a purchase and sale
agreement to sell all its hotels to FelCor Suites Limited Partnership, an
affiliate of FelCor Suite Hotels, Inc. for $64,800,000. FelCor Suite Hotels,
Inc., located in Irving, Texas, is one of the largest publicly-traded hotel
REITs.
The sale, which is expected to occur before the end of July, will
result in the liquidation of PSH Master L.P. I and a distribution to unit
holders of all net proceeds. The sales transaction, distribution of all net
proceeds and liquidation of the Partnership is contingent upon approval by the
unit holders of a majority of the outstanding units of the Partnership.
Additionally the consummation of the sale is contingent upon the written
approval by the land lessor of the property at Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
FelCor's board of directors has already approved the transaction.

(13) INTERIM INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
The interim condensed combined financial statements are unaudited but, in
the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations and financial position for such
periods. All such adjustments reflected in the interim condensed financial
statements are considered to be of a normal recurring nature. The results of
operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for
the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31,
1996.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors
FelCor Suite Hotels, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the DS Hotels
(described in Note 1) as of December 31, 1996 and the related combined
statements of revenues over expenses, equity, and cash flows for the year then
ended. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the
management of the DS Hotels. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of
complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission as described in Note 1 to the financial statements and are not
intended to be a complete presentation of the DS Hotels.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of
the DS Hotels as of December 31, 1996 and the combined results of their
operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying combined financial statements of the Embassy Suites hotel
in Dallas, TX and the Embassy Suites hotel in Syracuse, NY (collectively
the "DS Hotels" or the "Hotels") have been presented on a combined basis
because the hotels are expected to be the subject of a business combination
with FelCor Suite Hotels, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland corporation
established to acquire equity interests in existing hotel properties. The
Hotels are owned by Promus Hotel Corporation or its wholly-owned
subsidiaries (collectively "Promus"). All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
These financial statements have been prepared to show the operations and
financial position of the Hotels, substantially all of whose assets and
operations will be acquired by the Company. The Hotels are included in
Promus' consolidated Federal tax return. Taxes are allocated to
subsidiaries by Promus based upon the separate company accrual method,
however, any benefits from losses are retained by Promus and not passed
down to its subsidiaries. The Company has qualified as a REIT and does not
pay any federal income taxes. Accordingly, the combined financial
statements have been presented on a pretax basis.
The accompanying unaudited interim combined financial statements as of
March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the S.E.C. These financial statements reflect, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
the interim combined financial statements. All such adjustments are of a
normal and recurring nature.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
INVESTMENTS IN HOTEL PROPERTIES
The hotel properties are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Years
<S> <C>
Buildings and improvements 25-40
Furniture and equipment 3-15
</TABLE>
The owner of the DS Hotels reviews the carrying value of each property to
determine if circumstances exist indicating an impairment in the carrying value
of the investment in the hotel property or that depreciation periods should be
modified. If facts or circumstances support the possibility of impairment, the
owner of the Hotels will prepare a projection of the undiscounted future cash
flows, without interest charges, of the specific hotel property and determine
if the investment in hotel property is recoverable based on the undiscounted
future cash flows. The owner of the Hotels does not believe that there are any
factors or circumstances indicating impairment of any of its investment in
hotel properties.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
INVESTMENT IN HOTEL PROPERTIES, CONTINUED
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; major
renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or disposition of
a fixed asset, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed
from the accounts, and the gain or loss is included in operations.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
INVENTORIES
Inventories, consisting predominately of room linens and foods and
beverages, are stated at the lower of cost (generally, first-in, first-out)
or market.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized as earned. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed
and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the
portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other
assets, accounts payable and amounts included in accruals meeting the
definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Promus does not typically obtain franchise agreements or charge franchise
fees for its owned and managed properties. However, due to a past
ownership arrangment, no longer in place, the Syracuse hotel is operating
under the terms of a hotel franchise agreement expiring in 1999. As the
hotel is owned by the franchisor, Promus, fees are only paid for
reservation and advertising services and are computed as 4% of gross room
revenue.

Rent expense was approximately $84,000 for the year ended December 31,
1996.
4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
As discussed in Note 3, the Hotels are owned and operated by the owner of
the franchise under which they operate. All franchise fees are paid to an
affiliate of the owner.
Management fees are paid to Embassy Suites, Inc., an affiliated Company,
and are generally computed as 5% of total revenue for the periods
presented.
In 1996, Promus provided insurance coverage and other services to the Hotels
at a cost of $366,544, which is included in the Statement of Revenues
Over Expenses.

Report of Independent Public Accountants
To the Partners of
Barshop - HII Joint Venture:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of BARSHOP - HII JOINT VENTURE
(a Texas joint venture) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
statements of income, partners' deficit and cash flows for the years then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Joint
Venture's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Barshop - HII Joint Venture as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

BARSHOP - HII JOINT VENTURE
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Organization-
Barshop - HII Joint Venture (the "Joint Venture") was formed on January 17,
1984, in the state of Texas, for the purpose of constructing, owning and
operating an Embassy Suites Hotel (the "Hotel") in San Antonio, Texas.
The venture partners are Promus Hotels, Inc. ("PHI") and PMB Associates
("PMB"), each owning a 50% interest in the Joint Venture. The Hotel is managed
by PHI, in accordance with the terms of the joint venture and management
agreements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents-
Cash and cash equivalents includes short-term interest bearing accounts with
original maturities of 90 days or less.
Pervasiveness of Estimates-
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment-
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of normal repairs and
maintenance are expensed while major expenditures which extend the useful lives
of the assets are capitalized.
Depreciation-
Provisions for depreciation are computed using the straight-line method over
the following average estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Building and improvements 40 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3-10 years
</TABLE>
Other Assets-
Other assets consist of deferred financing costs and a loan commitment fee. The
deferred financing costs are being amortized over the term of the related debt.
The loan commitment fee is a deposit with a financial institution to secure the
loan for refinancing the Joint Venture's debt (Note 3). The amortization of
deferred financing costs has been included in interest expense.
63
<PAGE> 64
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued):
Deferred Credits-
Deferred credits consist of unamortized deferred income on a long-term contract
with a third party for in-suite movies. This deferred income is being
amortized into other revenues over the term of the related contract period.
Revenue Recognition-
Suites revenue represents revenue derived from the rental of suites for the
hotel owned by the Joint Venture.
Reclassifications-
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.
2. INCOME TAXES:
No provision has been made in the accounts of the Joint Venture for federal and
state income taxes, as such taxes are liabilities of the individual partners.
The Joint Venture's income tax returns and the amount of allocable profits or
losses are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities. If
such examinations result in changes to joint venture profits or losses, the
income tax liability of the partners may also change.
The accounting records of the Joint Venture are maintained on the accrual basis
of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
net income reflected in the accompanying statements of income differs from
amounts reported in the Joint Venture's federal income tax returns because of
differences in accounting policies adopted for financial and tax reporting
purposes.
The table below reconciles the differences for the years ended December 31:

the Joint Venture.
7. RESTRICTED ASSETS:
The management agreement specifies that the Joint Venture establish a cash
reserve for those ordinary capital replacements which are necessary to maintain
and operate the Hotel in accordance with the operational standards of PHI.
This reserve is funded through monthly deposits of an amount equal to 5% of
adjusted gross revenues as defined in the management agreement. Withdrawals
from this fund are restricted to the purchase of capital replacements,
alterations, additions and improvements. At December 31, 1996, the Joint
Venture had made capital expenditures above the required level by approximately
$183,000, which were funded by partner contributions.
The management agreement specifies that the Joint Venture maintain a minimum
cash balance for working capital requirements. At December 31, 1996, the
amount of this required minimum balance was approximately $250,000.
Under the mortgage loan agreement, the Joint Venture is required to make
monthly deposits into an escrow account of an amount sufficient to permit the
payment of property taxes on the property. Disbursements can only be made from
this account to pay property taxes. At December 31, 1996, the amount in the
escrow account was $266,611.

borrowings outstanding for the respective periods multiplied by the
applicable fixed or variable interest rate as stated in the applicable debt
instruments. The pro forma adjustment assumes additional borrowings
against the Chase Line of Credit in the amount of $120.4 million were
required in order to finance the 1997 Acquisition Hotel purchases and

associated with the renovation of the Company's hotels. The variable
interest rates used to calculate the pro forma adjustment to interest
expense were the same as the historical rates used to calculate the
outstanding borrowings on the Line of Credit for the same respective
periods ended December 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997. The period end pro

The Several Underwriters
c/o Smith Barney Inc.
388 Greenwich Street
New York, New York 10013
Gentlemen:
FelCor Suite Hotels, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"),
proposes to sell to the several underwriters (the "Underwriters") named in
Schedule I hereto an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares (the "Firm Shares") of the
Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"). The
respective amounts of the Firm Shares to be so purchased by the Underwriters
are set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto. The Company also
proposes to sell at the Underwriters' option an aggregate of up to 450,000
additional shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Option Shares") as set
forth below. The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Shares."
Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and upon the
Company's contribution of the net proceeds from the sale of the Firm Shares, in
exchange for units of partnership interest (the "Units") in FelCor Suites
Limited Partnership, (the "Partnership"), a Delaware limited partnership, the
Company will own an approximate 90.5% general partnership interest in the
Partnership. The Partnership currently owns interests in 43 hotels as
described in the Prospectus, as defined herein, (collectively, the "Current
Hotels"). Six of the Current Hotels were acquired in connection with the
Company's initial public offering of Common Stock in July 1994, seven of the
Current Hotels were acquired from December 1994 through August 1995, eighteen
Current Hotels,
<PAGE> 2
the Crown Sterling Suites hotels, were acquired between November 1995 and March
1996, and the remaining twelve Current Hotels were acquired between November
1995 through December 1996. The Partnership has entered into agreements (the
"Acquisition Agreements") as described in the Prospectus to acquire interests
in ten additional hotels from affiliates of the General Electric Pension Trust
or joint ventures between such affiliates and Promus Hotels, Inc. ("Promus")
(such ten additional hotels being hereinafter referred to as the "Acquisition
Hotels") (the Current Hotels and the Acquisition Hotels hereinafter referred
to as the "Hotels").
The Partnership leases the Current Hotels, and upon the purchase thereof
will lease the Acquisition Hotels to DJONT Operations, L.L.C. or a subsidiary
thereof (collectively, the "Lessee"), pursuant to separate leases providing for
the payment of certain base amounts (the "Percentage Leases"). Thirty-eight of
the Company's Current Hotels are managed by Promus, two are managed by American
General Hospitality, Inc., two are managed by DT Management, Inc. and one is
managed by Coastal Hotel Group, Inc., pursuant to separate management
agreements (collectively, the "Management Agreements"). The Partnership will
lease the Acquisition Hotels to the Lessee pursuant to leases substantially
similar to the Percentage Leases. The Current Hotels are operated, and the
Acquisition Hotels will be operated, by the Lessee pursuant to the terms of the
Percentage Leases. Other capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Registration Statement
(as hereinafter defined).
The Company wishes to confirm as follows its agreement with you and the
other Underwriters, in connection with the several purchases of the Shares by
the Underwriters.
1. Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company has prepared
and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") in
accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the
"Act"), a registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-3170) under
the Act, with respect to an aggregate of $500,000,000 of Debt Securities,
Preferred Stock, Common Stock and Common Stock Warrants, including a prospectus
generally relating to the Shares; and such amendments to such registration
statement as may have been required prior to the date hereof have been filed
with the Commission, and such amendments have been similarly prepared. Such
registration statement and any post-effective amendments thereto have become
effective under the Act. The Company also has filed, or proposes to file, with
the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, a prospectus supplement
specifically relating to the Shares.
The term "Registration Statement" as used in this Agreement means the
registration statement (including all financial schedules and exhibits), as
amended at the time it became effective, as supplemented or amended prior to
the execution of this Agreement, including all information (if any) deemed to
be a part of such registration at the time it became effective pursuant to Rule
430A under the Act. If it is contemplated, at the time this Agreement is
executed, that a post-effective amendment to the registration statement will be
filed and must be declared effective before the offering of the Shares may
commence, the term "Registration Statement" as used in this Agreement
-2-
<PAGE> 3
means the registration statement as amended by said post-effective amendment.
The term "Prospectus" as used in this Agreement means the base prospectus
included in the registration statement at the time it was declared effective
(the "Base Prospectus") together with the prospectus supplement relating to the
Shares dated the date hereof in the form first filed with the Commission on or
after January 22, 1997 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act. The term
"Prepricing Prospectus Supplement" as used in this Agreement means the Base
Prospectus together with any prospectus supplement subject to completion as
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act, and as such
Prepricing Prospectus Supplement shall have been amended or supplemented from
time to time prior to the date of the Prospectus. Any reference in this
Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, any Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include
the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3
under the Act, as of the date of the Registration Statement, such Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement of the Prospectus, as the case may be, and any reference
to any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, any Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include
any documents filed after such date under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which, upon filing, are incorporated by
reference therein, as required by paragraph (b) of Item 12 of Form S-3. As
used herein, the term "Incorporated Documents" means the documents which at the
time are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any
Prepricing Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto.
2. Agreements to Sell and Purchase. The Company hereby agrees,
subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, to issue and sell to
each Underwriter and, upon the basis of the representations, warranties and
agreements of the Company and the Partnership herein contained, and subject to
all the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Underwriter agrees,
severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of
$35.50 per Share (the "Purchase Price Per Share"), the number of Firm Shares
set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (or such
number of Firm Shares increased as set forth in Section 10 hereof).
The Company also agrees, subject to all the terms and conditions set
forth herein, to sell to the Underwriters, and, upon the basis of the
representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Partnership
herein contained and subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Underwriters shall have the right to purchase from the Company, at the
Purchase Price Per Share, pursuant to an option (the "Over-allotment Option"),
which may be exercised at any time and from time to time prior to 9:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the 30th day after the date of the Prospectus (or, if
such 30th day shall be a Saturday or Sunday or a holiday, on the next business
day thereafter when the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading), up to an
aggregate of 450,000 Additional Shares. Additional Shares may be purchased
only for the purpose of covering over-allotments made in connection with the
offering of the Firm Shares. Upon any exercise of the Over-allotment Option,
each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the
Company the number of Additional Shares (subject to such adjustments as you may
determine in order to avoid fractional shares) which bears the same proportion
to the total number of Additional
-3-
<PAGE> 4
Shares to be purchased by all of the Underwriters as the number of Firm Shares
set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto (or such
number of Firm Shares increased as set forth in Section 10 hereof) bears to the
aggregate number of Firm Shares.
3. Terms of Public Offering. The Company has been advised by you
that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective
portions of the Shares as soon after this Agreement has become effective as in
your judgment is advisable and initially to offer the Shares upon the terms set
forth in the Prospectus.

Underwriters of and payment for the Firm Shares shall be made at the office of

between you and the Company.
Delivery to the Underwriters of and payment for any Additional Shares to

the Company.

price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company.
5. Agreements of the Company. The Company agrees with the
Underwriters as follows:
(a) If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
it is necessary for a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to
be declared effective before the offering of the Shares may commence, the
Company will endeavor to cause such post-effective amendment to become

you, will confirm such advice in writing, when such post-effective amendment
has become effective.
-4-
<PAGE> 5
(b) The Company will advise you promptly and, if requested by
you, will confirm such advice in writing: (i) of any request by the Commission
for amendment of or a supplement to the Registration Statement, any Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of
the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement or of the suspension of qualification of the
Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any
proceeding for such purpose; and (iii) within the period of time referred to in
paragraph (f) below, of any change in the Company's condition (financial or
other), business, prospects, properties, net worth or results of operations, or
of the occurrence of any event, which makes any statement of a material fact
made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as then amended or
supplemented) untrue or which requires the making of any additions to or
changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as then amended or
supplemented) in order to state a material fact required by the Act or the
regulations thereunder to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, or of the necessity to amend or supplement
the Prospectus (as then amended or supplemented) to comply with the Act or any
other law. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will make every
reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest
possible time.
(c) The Company will furnish to you, without charge, (i) two
copies of the Prepricing Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus, and, (ii) such
number of copies of the documents incorporated by reference in the Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus since April 30, 1996, as you may reasonably
request.
(d) The Company will not file any amendment to the
Registration Statement or make any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus
or, prior to the end of the period of time referred to in the first sentence in
subsection (f) below, file any document which upon filing, becomes an
Incorporated Document, of which you shall not previously have been advised or
to which, after you shall have received a copy of the document proposed to be
filed, you shall reasonably object.
(e) Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Company has delivered to you, without charge, in such quantities as you have
requested, copies of the Prepricing Prospectus Supplement. The Company
consents to the use, in accordance with the provisions of the Act and with the
securities or blue sky laws of the jurisdictions in which the Shares are
offered by the Underwriters and by dealers, prior to the date of the
Prospectus, of each Prepricing Prospectus Supplement so furnished by the
Company.
(f) As soon after the execution and delivery of this Agreement
as possible and thereafter from time to time for such period as in the opinion
of counsel for the Underwriters a prospectus is required by the Act to be
delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, the Company
will expeditiously deliver to each Underwriter and each dealer, without charge,
as many copies of the Prospectus (and of any amendment or supplement thereto)
as you may reasonably request. The Company consents to the use of the
Prospectus (and of any amendment or
-5-
<PAGE> 6
supplement thereto) in accordance with the provisions of the Act and with the
securities or blue sky laws or real estate syndication laws of the
jurisdictions in which the Shares are offered by the Underwriters and by all
dealers to whom Shares may be sold, both in connection with the offering and
sale of the Shares and for such period of time thereafter as the Prospectus is
required by the Act to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter
or dealer. If during such period of time any event shall occur that in the
judgment of the Company or in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the
Underwriters is required to be set forth in the Prospectus (as then amended or
supplemented) or should be set forth therein in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or if it is necessary to supplement or amend the Prospectus (or to
file under the Exchange Act any document which, upon filing, becomes an
Incorporated Document) in order to comply with the Act or any other law, the
Company will forthwith prepare and, subject to the provisions of paragraph (d)
above, file with the Commission an appropriate supplement or amendment thereto
(or to such Incorporated Document), and will expeditiously furnish to the
Underwriters and dealers a reasonable number of copies thereof. In the event
that the Company and you, agree that the Prospectus should be amended or
supplemented, the Company, if requested by you, will promptly issue a press
release announcing or disclosing the matters to be covered by the proposed
amendment or supplement.
(g) The Company will cooperate with you and with counsel for
the Underwriters in connection with the registration or qualification of the
Shares for offering and sale by the Underwriters and by dealers under the
securities or blue sky laws or real estate syndication laws of such
jurisdictions as you may designate and will file such consents to service of
process or other documents necessary or appropriate in order to effect such
registration or qualification; provided that in no event shall the Company be
obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so
qualified or to take any action which would subject it to service of process in
suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Shares, in
any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.
(h) The Company generally will make available to its security
holders a consolidated earnings statement, which need not be audited, covering
a twelve-month period commencing after the effective date of the Registration
Statement and ending not later than 15 months thereafter, as soon as
practicable after the end of such period, which consolidated earnings statement
shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act.
(i) As long as any of the Shares are outstanding, the Company
will furnish to its shareholders, as soon as practicable after the end of each
respective period, annual reports (including financial statements audited by
independent public accountants) and unaudited quarterly reports of operations
for each of the first three quarters of the fiscal year, and during the period
of five years hereafter, the Company will furnish to you (i) concurrently with
mailing or filing, a copy of each report of the Company mailed to shareholders
or filed with the Commission, and (ii) from time to time such other information
concerning the Company as you may reasonably request.

after execution pursuant to any provisions hereof (otherwise than pursuant to
the second paragraph of Section 10 hereof or by notice given by you terminating
this Agreement pursuant to Section 10 or Section 11 hereof) or if this
Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters because of any failure or
refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or fulfill any of
the conditions of this Agreement to be complied with or fulfilled by the
Company, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel for the
Underwriters) incurred by you in connection herewith.
(k) The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of
the Shares substantially in accordance with the description set forth under the
caption "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus.
(l) The Company will timely file the Prospectus pursuant to
Rule 424(b) under the Act and will advise you of the time and manner of such
filing.
(m) Except as provided in this Agreement, the Company will not
sell, offer to sell, solicit an offer to buy, contract to sell, grant any
option to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Common
Stock or any other securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable
for, shares of Common Stock for a period of 90 days after the date of the
Prospectus, without the prior written consent of Smith Barney Inc.; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company from issuing Common
Stock upon the exercise of stock options, the conversion of outstanding shares
of the Company's $1.95 Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock or the
redemption of Units outstanding as of the date of the Prospectus, grant
additional options under the Company's stock option plans consistent with past
practices, and issuing Common Stock and/or Units in connection with the
acquisition of hotels.
(n) The Company has furnished or will furnish to you "lock-up"
letters, in form and substance satisfactory to you, signed by Messrs. Feldman
and Corcoran.
(o) Except as stated in this Agreement and in any Prepricing
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, the Company has not taken, nor will it
take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to or that might reasonably
be expected to cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of
the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Shares.
(p) The Company will not, and will use its best efforts to
cause its officers, directors and affiliates not to, (i) take, directly or
indirectly prior to termination of the underwriting syndicate contemplated by
this Agreement, any action designed to stabilize or manipulate the price of any
security of the Company, or which may cause or result in, or which might in the
future reasonably be expected to cause or result in, the stabilization or
manipulation of the price of any security of the Company, to facilitate the
same or resale of any of the Shares, (ii) sell, bid for, purchase or pay anyone
any compensation for soliciting purchases of the Shares or (iii) pay or agree
-7-
<PAGE> 8
to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting any order to purchase any
other securities of the Company.
(q) The Company will use its best efforts to list the Shares
on the New York Stock Exchange.
6. Representations and Warranties of the Company and the
Partnership. The Company and the Partnership, jointly and severally, represent
and warrant to each Underwriter that:
(a) No order preventing or suspending the use of any
Prepricing Prospectus Supplement has been issued and no proceeding for that
purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission or the securities
authority of any state or other jurisdiction. No stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof has been issued
and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened or, to the
best knowledge of the Company, contemplated by the Commission or the securities
authority of any state or other jurisdiction.
(b) The Company and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement meet the requirements and conditions for using a registration
statement on Form S-3 under the Act, set forth in the General Instructions to
Form S-3. When any Prepricing Prospectus Supplement was filed with the
Commission it (i) contained all statements required to be stated therein in
accordance with, and complied in all material respects with the requirements
of, the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and (ii)
did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. When the
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto was declared effective, and on
the Closing Date (or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be) it (i)
contained or will contain all statements required to be stated therein in
accordance with, and complied or will comply in all material respects with the
requirements of, the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder and (ii) did not or will not include any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading. When the Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto is filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and at
the Closing Date (or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be), the
Prospectus, as amended or supplemented at any such time, (i) contained or will
contain all statements required to be stated therein in accordance with, and
complied or will comply in all material respects with the requirements of, the
Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and (ii) did not
or will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The
representation and warranty in this paragraph (b) does not apply to statements
in or omissions from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus made in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in
writing by or on behalf of any Underwriter through you expressly for use
therein.
-8-
<PAGE> 9
(c) The Incorporated Documents heretofore filed, when they
were filed (or, if any amendment with respect to any such document was filed,
when such amendment was filed), conformed in all material respects with the
requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, any
further Incorporated Documents so filed will, when they are filed, conform in
all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations thereunder; no such document when it was filed (or, if an
amendment with respect to any such document was filed, when such amendment was
filed), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading; and no such further document, when it is
filed, will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein not misleading.
(d) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly
existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the state of
Maryland with all requisite corporate power and authority to own and lease its
properties and to conduct its business. The Company has been duly qualified to
do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each other
jurisdiction in which the ownership or leasing of its properties or the nature
or conduct of its business as now conducted requires such qualification, except
where the failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the

Partnership, the Lessee or any of their respective officers and directors or to
which the properties, assets or rights of any such entity are subject, before
or brought by any court or governmental agency or body or board of arbitrators,

obligations of the Company, the Partnership and the Lessee, respectively,
enforceable against such parties in accordance with their respective terms,

conflict with) asserted rights of others with respect to any Intangibles which
could materially and adversely affect the business, prospects, properties,
assets, results of operation or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Company, the Partnership or the Lessee.
(z) The Company's, the Partnership's and to the best of the
Company's and the Partnership's knowledge, the Company's, the Partnership's,
and the Lessee's system of internal accounting controls taken as a whole is

the Partnership's, or the Lessee's financial statements; and, to the best of
the Company's and the Partnership's knowledge, neither the Company, the
Partnership, nor the Lessee, nor any employee or agent thereof, has made any
payment of funds of the Company, the Partnership, the Lessee, as the case may

asserted against any such entity and which if determined adversely to any such
entity, could materially adversely affect the business, prospects, properties,
assets, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of any such
entity, respectively. All tax liabilities are adequately provided for on the
respective books of such entities.
(bb) The Company, the Partnership, and the Lessee maintain
insurance (issued by insurers of recognized financial responsibility) of the
types and in the amounts generally deemed adequate for their respective
businesses and, to the best of the Company's and the Partnership's knowledge,
consistent with insurance coverage maintained by similar companies in similar
businesses, including, but not limited to, insurance covering real and personal

the Company, the Partnership, Holdings, nor, to the best knowledge of the
Company and the Partnership, any entity from whom the Partnership acquired or
will acquire the Hotels has authorized or conducted or has knowledge of the
generation, transportation, storage, presence, use, treatment, disposal,
release, or other handling of any hazardous substance, hazardous waste,

environment, health, safety, natural resources, and the environment
(collectively, "Environmental Laws"), and the Company and the Partnership have
complied with, and are in compliance with, all licenses, permits,
registrations, and government authorizations necessary to operate under all

7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company and the Partnership, jointly and severally,
agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of you and each other Underwriter
and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including
reasonable costs of investigation) arising out of or based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Prepricing Prospectus Supplement or in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or
based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, except
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses arise out of
or are based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement
or omission which has been made therein or omitted therefrom in reliance upon
and in conformity with (i) the information relating to such Underwriter
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through
-18-
<PAGE> 19
you expressly for use in connection therewith or (ii) those parts of the
Registration Statement that constitute the Statements of Eligibility (Form T-1)
under the Trust Indenture Act of the trustee(s) referred to in the Registration
Statement; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this
paragraph (a) with respect to any Prepricing Prospectus Supplement shall not
inure to the benefit of any Underwriter (or to the benefit of any person
controlling such Underwriter) on account of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or expense arising from the sale of the Shares by such Underwriter
to any person if a copy of the Prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent
to such person within the time required by the Act and the regulations
thereunder, and the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission of a material fact contained in such Prepricing Prospectus
Supplement was corrected in the Prospectus, provided that the Company has
delivered the Prospectus to the Underwriters in requisite quantity on a timely
basis to permit such delivery or sending. The foregoing indemnity agreement
shall be in addition to any liability which the Company or the Partnership may
otherwise have.
(b) If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against
any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter in respect of which
indemnity may be sought against the Company or the Partnership, such
Underwriter or such controlling person shall promptly notify the Company or the
Partnership, and the Company or the Partnership shall assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel and payment of all reasonable fees
and expenses. Such Underwriter or any such controlling person shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such action, suit, or proceeding and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of such Underwriter or such controlling person unless
the Company and the Partnership have agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses, the Company and the Partnership have failed to assume the defense
and employ counsel, or the named parties to any such action, suit or proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Underwriter or such
controlling person and the Company or the Partnership and such Underwriter or
such controlling person shall have been advised by its counsel that
representation of such indemnified party and the Company or the Partnership by
the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of
professional conduct (whether or not such representation by the same counsel
has been proposed) due to actual or potential differing interests between them,
in which case the Company or the Partnership shall not have the right to assume
the defense of such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of such Underwriter or
such controlling person). It is understood, however, that the Company or the
Partnership shall, in connection with any one such action, suit or proceeding
or separate but substantially similar or related actions, suits or proceedings
in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one
separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel), at any time for
all such Underwriters and controlling persons not having actual or potential
differing interests with you or among themselves, which firm shall be
designated in writing by Smith Barney Inc., and that all such fees and expenses
shall be reimbursed as they are incurred; provided, however, to the extent that
any such reimbursement payment is so held by a court of competent jurisdiction
to have been improper, each Underwriter shall promptly return it to the Company
together with interest, determined on the basis of the prime rate (or other
commercial lending rate for borrowers of the highest credit standing)

announced from time to time in the U.S. edition of the Wall Street Journal.
Neither the Company, nor the Partnership shall be liable for any settlement of
any such action, suit, or proceeding effected without its written consent, but
if settled with such written consent or if there be a final judgment for the
plaintiff in any such action, suit, or proceeding, the Company and the
Partnership agree to indemnify and hold harmless any Underwriter, to the extent
provided in the preceding paragraph, and any such controlling person from and
against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such
settlement or judgment.
(c) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Partnership, their respective
directors and officers who sign the Registration Statement, and any person who
controls the Company or the Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing
indemnity from the Company and the Partnership to each Underwriter, but only
with respect to information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such
Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or any Prepricing Prospectus Supplement, or any amendment or
supplement thereto. If any action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against
the Company, the Partnership or any of their respective directors, any such
officer, or any such controlling person based on the Registration Statement,
the Prospectus or any Prepricing Prospectus Supplement, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any
Underwriter pursuant to this paragraph (c), such Underwriter shall have the
rights and duties given to the Company and the Partnership by paragraph (b)
above (except that if the Company and the Partnership shall have assumed the
defense thereof, such Underwriter shall not be required to do so but may employ
separate counsel therein and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at such Underwriter's expense), and the
Company, the Partnership or their respective directors, any such officer, and
any such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the
Underwriters by paragraph (b) above. The foregoing indemnity agreement shall
be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters may otherwise have.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraphs (a) or (c) hereof in
respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses referred to
therein, then an indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable to such indemnified party
as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company and the Partnership on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand from the offering of the Shares, or (ii) if the allocation provided
by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Partnership on the
one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
benefits received by the Company and the Partnership on the one hand and the
Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the
total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses)
received by the
-20-
<PAGE> 21
Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the
Underwriters bear to the price to public of the Shares, in each case as set
forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of
the Company and the Partnership on the one hand and the Underwriters on the
other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Company or the Partnership on the one hand or by the Underwriters on the
other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) The Company, the Partnership, and the Underwriters agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 7 were determined by a pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters
were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of
allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party
as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses referred
to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with investigating any claim or
defending any such action, suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price of the Shares underwritten by it
and distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such
Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute
pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the respective numbers
of Firm Shares set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto (or such
numbers of Firm Shares increased as set forth in Section 10 hereof) and not
joint.
(f) No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or
threatened action, suit, or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified
party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought
hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such action, suit, or proceeding.
(g) Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for
which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under
this Section 7 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party
as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 and the
representations and warranties of the Company and the Partnership set forth in
this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless
of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any person
controlling any Underwriter, the Company, the Partnership, their
-21-
<PAGE> 22
respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company or the
Trust or the Partnership, (ii) acceptance of any Shares and payment therefor
hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to the
Underwriters or any person controlling the Underwriter, or a sucessor to the
Company or the Partnership and their respective directors or officers, or any
person controlling the Company or the Partnership, shall be entitled to the
benefits of the indemnity, contribution, and reimbursement agreements contained
in this Section 7.
8. Conditions of Underwriters' Obligations. The several obligations
of the Underwriters to purchase the Firm Shares hereunder are subject to the
following conditions:
(a) If, at the time this Agreement is executed and delivered,
it is necessary for a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to
be declared effective before the offering of the Shares may commence, such
post-effective amendment shall have become effective not later than 5:30 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date hereof, or at such later date and time as shall
be consented to in writing by you, and all filings, if any, required by Rule
424 and Rule 430A under the Act shall have been timely made; no stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been
issued and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or, to the
knowledge of the Company or any Underwriter, threatened by the Commission, and
any request of the Commission for additional information (to be included in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise) shall have been complied
with to your satisfaction.
(b) Subsequent to the effective date of this Agreement, there
shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development involving a
prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or other),
business, properties, net worth, or results of operations of the Company, the
Partnership and the Lessee taken as a whole not contemplated by the Prospectus,
which in your reasonable opinion, as the Underwriters, would materially,
adversely affect the market for the Shares, or (ii) any event or development
relating to or involving the Company or the Partnership or any officer or
director of the Company which makes any statement made in the Prospectus untrue
or which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company and its counsel or the
Underwriters and their counsel, requires the making of any addition to or
change in the Prospectus in order to state a material fact required by the Act
or any other law to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, if amending or supplementing the Prospectus
to reflect such event or development would, in your reasonable opinion, as the
Underwriters, materially adversely affect the market for the Shares.
(c) You shall have received on the Closing Date, an opinion of
Bracewell & Patterson, L.L.P., counsel for the Company and the Partnership,
dated the Closing Date and addressed to you, as the Underwriters, to the effect

qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in
the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina,
Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah. To such counsel's
knowledge, there are no other jurisdictions in which the ownership or leasing
the Company's properties or the nature or conduct of its business requires such
qualification, except where the failure to do so would not have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, business, prospects, net worth or
results of operations of the Company and the Partnership, taken as a whole. To
such counsel's knowledge, except for the entities listed on Schedule II to this
Agreement, the Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any
corporation, association or control, directly or indirectly, any corporation,
association or other entity.
(ii) The Partnership has been duly formed and validly

a foreign partnership in the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida,
Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey,
North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah. To such
counsel's knowledge, there are no other jurisdictions in which the ownership or
leasing of the Partnership's properties or the nature or conduct of its
business requires such qualification, except where the failure to do so would
not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business,
prospects, net worth or results of operations of the Company and the
Partnership, taken as a whole. The Company is the sole general partner of the
Partnership and upon its delivery to the Partnership of the net proceeds from
the sale of the Shares pursuant hereto, will own an approximate 90.5% interest
in the Partnership.
(iii) DJONT Operations, L.L.P. has been duly formed and
is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the
Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. FCOAM, Inc. has been duly incorporated

corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and
conduct its business. The Lessee has been duly qualified to do business and is
in good standing as a foreign limited liability company or corporation in the
states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New
Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Utah. To such counsel's knowledge, there are no other jurisdictions in which
the ownership or leasing of its properties or the nature or conduct of its
business requires such qualification, except where the failure to do so would
not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business,
prospects, net worth or results of the Lessee.
(iv) The Company has full corporate right, power and
authority to enter into, deliver and perform this Agreement, to issue, sell and
deliver the Shares as provided herein and to consummate the transactions

enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other

principles and except to the extent that enforcement of the indemnification and
contribution provisions set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement may be limited
by federal or state securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws.
(v) The Partnership has full partnership right, power
and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated herein. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Partnership and, assuming due authorization, execution and
delivery by the Underwriters, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the
Partnership enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
reorganization or other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by
general equity principles and except to the extent that enforcement of the
indemnification and contribution provisions set forth in Section 7 of this
Agreement may be limited by federal or state securities laws or the public
policy underlying such laws.
(vi) The Partnership has full partnership right, power

duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Partnership and, assuming due
authorization, execution and delivery by each other party thereto, constitutes
a valid and binding agreement of the Partnership, enforceable against the
Partnership in accordance with its terms, except to the extent enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and by
general equity principles. Each Lease should be construed to create a valid
leasehold interest in favor of the Lessee.
(vii) The Lessee has full limited liability company
right, power and authority to enter into each of the Percentage Leases and the
Management Agreements relating to the Current Hotels acquired since April 30,
1996 and the Acquisition Hotels and to consummate the transactions contemplated

moratorium or other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors' rights and by general equity principles.
(viii) Each consent, approval, authorization, order,
license, certificate, permit, registration, designation or filing by or with
any governmental agency or body necessary for the valid authorization,
issuance, sale and delivery of the Shares, the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company and the
Partnership of the transactions contemplated hereby, the execution, delivery
and performance of the other Operative
-24-
<PAGE> 25
Documents to which either the Company or the Partnership is a party and the
consummation by the Company and/or the Partnership, as applicable, of the
transactions contemplated thereby, including without limitation the issuance of
Units, has been made or obtained and is in full force and effect, except such
(i) as may be necessary under state securities or real estate syndication laws
or by the NASD in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Shares
by the Underwriters, as to which such counsel need express no opinion, or (ii)
solely as the same may relate to the Operative Documents, the lack of which
would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business,
prospects, net worth or results of operations of the Company and the
Partnership, taken as a whole.
(ix) Each consent, approval, authorization, order,
license, certificate, permit, registration, designation or filing by or with
any governmental agency or body necessary for the execution, delivery and

lack of which would not have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, business, prospects, net worth or results of operations of the
lessee.
(x) Neither the issuance, sale and delivery by the
Company of the Shares, nor the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by the Company and the Partnership, nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby by the Company or the Partnership, will
violate any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any
of the Operative Documents, the articles of incorporation, by-laws, certificate
of limited partnership or partnership agreement, as the case may be, of any
such entity, as applicable; or, to such counsel's knowledge, under any material
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease or other
agreement or instrument to which the Company or the Partnership is a party or
to which they, either of them, any of their respective properties or other
assets or any Current Hotel owned by the Partnership or Holdings as of the date
hereof is subject, except for violations or defaults under agreements or
instruments which have since been terminated, cured or otherwise satisfied or
such violations or defaults as would not have a material adverse effect on the
financial condition, business, prospects, net worth or results of operations of
the Company and the Partnership, taken as a whole; or, to such counsel's
knowledge, violate any applicable statute, judgment, decree, order, rule or
regulation of any court or governmental agency or body; or, to such counsel's
knowledge, result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge, claim or
encumbrance upon any property or asset of any of the foregoing, except for
liens, charges, claims or encumbrances which are created by the Operative

(xi) The Shares to be issued and sold to the
Underwriters hereunder have been validly authorized by the Company. When
issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided in this Agreement,
such Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. No
preemptive rights of shareholders exist with respect to any of the Shares. To
such counsel's knowledge, no person holds a right to require or participate in

for Promus, Cleveland Finance Associates Limited Partnership, Robert E.
Woolley, Charles M. Sweeney, MarRay-Lex Green, Inc. and Piscataway-Centennial
Associates Limited Partnership or as otherwise set forth in the Prospectus, no
person holds a right to require registration under the Act of any shares of
Common Stock at any other time. To such counsel's knowledge, no person or
entity has a right of participation or first refusal with respect to the sale
of the Shares by the Company. The form of certificates evidencing the Shares
comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of Maryland
law. All offers and sales of the Company's capital stock prior to the date
hereof were at all relevant times duly registered under the Act or exempt from
the registration requirements of the Act by reason of Sections 3(b), 4(2) or
4(6) thereof, and (with the exception of shares of Common Stock registered
under the Act, as to which such counsel need not opine) were duly registered or
the subject of an available exemption from the registration requirements of the
applicable state securities or blue sky laws.
(xii) The Company's authorized, issued and outstanding
capital stock is as disclosed in the Prospectus. All of the issued shares of
capital stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable. To the knowledge of such counsel, except as
disclosed in the Prospectus, there is no outstanding option, warrant or other
right calling for the issuance of, and no commitment, plan or arrangement to
issue, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any security convertible

Partnership Units to be issued to the Company at the Closing Time will be

without limitation, federal and state securities laws).

(xv) Neither the Company, the Partnership nor the Lessee
is in violation of its respective articles of incorporation, by-laws,
certificate of limited partnership, partnership agreement, or limited liability
company agreement, as the case may be, and to the knowledge of such counsel no
material default exists and no event has occurred which, with notice or after
the lapse of time to cure or both, would constitute a material default in the
due performance and observance of any obligation, agreement, term, covenant, or
condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement,
note, lease or other agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which any
such entity is a party or by which any such entity or any of its properties is
subject. To the knowledge of such counsel, neither the Company, the
Partnership nor the Lessee is in violation of, or in default with respect to,
any statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree, except as may be
properly described in the Prospectus or such as in the aggregate do not now
have and will not in the future have a material adverse effect on the financial
position, results of operations or business of each such entity, respectively.
(xvi) To such counsel's knowledge and except as described
in the Prospectus, there is not pending or threatened, any action, suit,
proceeding, inquiry or investigation against the Company, the Partnership, the
Lessee or Holdings or any of their respective officers and directors or to
which the properties, assets or rights of any such entity are subject, which,
if determined adversely to any such entity, would individually or in the
aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of
operations or business of the Company and the Partnership, taken as a whole.
(xvii) There are no contracts, leases or other documents
known to such counsel of a character required to be described in the
Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the
Registration Statement which are not described or filed as required. To such
counsel's knowledge, there are no statutes or regulations applicable to the
Company, the Partnership or the Lessee or certificates, permits or other
authorizations from governmental regulatory officials or bodies required to be
obtained or maintained by any such entity, known to such counsel, of a
character required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus which have not been so disclosed and properly described therein. To
such counsel's knowledge, all material agreements between the Company, the
Partnership or the Lessee, respectively, and third parties expressly referenced
in the Prospectus, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery thereof
by each other party thereto, are legal, valid and binding obligations of each
such entity, respectively, enforceable against such entity in accordance with
their respective terms, except to the extent enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general
applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general
equitable principles.

(xviii) The Shares are and the Common Stock is listed for
trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
(xix) The Registration Statement has become effective
under the Act and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no
proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or is pending or contemplated
under the Act. Other than financial statements and other financial and
operating information data and schedules contained therein, as to which counsel
need express no opinion, the Registration Statement, all Prepricing Prospectus
Supplements, the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, appear on
their face to conform as to form in all material respects with the requirements
of Form S-3 under the Act.
(xx) Such counsel has no reason to believe that the
Registration Statement including the Incorporated Documents, or any further
amendment thereto made prior to the Closing Time, on its effective date and as
of the Closing Time, contained or contains any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto made prior to the Closing
Time, as of its issue date and as of the Closing Time, contained or contains
any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that such
counsel need express no belief regarding the financial statements and related
schedules and other financial data contained in the Registration Statement, any
amendment thereto, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto).
(xxi) The Incorporated Documents (other than the
financial statements and related schedules therein, as to which such counsel
need express no opinion), when they were filed with the Commission, complied on
their face as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the
Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and
nothing has come to such counsel's attention which causes them to believe that
any of such Incorporated Documents (other than the financial statements and
related schedules therein, as to which such counsel need express no belief),
when such Incorporated Documents were so filed, contained an untrue statement
of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made when such documents were so filed, not misleading.
(xxii) None of the Company, the Partnership or the Lessee
is, or solely as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby will become, an "investment company," or a company "controlled" by an
"investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended.
(xxiii) The descriptions in or incorporated by reference
in the Prospectus or the Prepricing Prospectus Supplement of statutes,
regulations, legal or governmental proceedings, the Percentage Leases, and the
Management Agreements therein described present fairly a summary
-28-
<PAGE> 29
of the information required to be shown under the Act. The descriptions in the
Registration Statement and the Prospectus or the Prepricing Prospectus
Supplement of the contracts, leases and other legal documents therein described
present fairly the information required to be shown.
In rendering their opinion as aforesaid, counsel may rely upon an
opinion or opinions, each dated the Closing Date, of other counsel retained by
them or the Company as to laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States
and jurisdictions in which they are admitted, provided that (1) each such local
counsel is acceptable to the Underwriters, (2) such reliance is expressly
authorized by each opinion so relied upon and a copy of each such opinion is
delivered to the Underwriters and is, in form and substance satisfactory to
them and their counsel, and (3) counsel shall state in their opinion that they
believe that they and the Underwriters are justified in relying thereon. In
addition, in rendering the foregoing opinion, such counsel may rely on, as to
matters of fact, to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible
officers of the Company, the Partnership and the Lessee and certificates or
other written statements of officers or departments of various jurisdictions,
having custody of documents respecting the existence or good standing of the
Company, the Partnership and the Lessee provided that copies of all such
opinions, statements or certificates shall be delivered to Underwriters'
counsel. The opinion of counsel for the Company shall state that the opinion
of any other counsel, or certificate or written statement, on which such
counsel is relying is in form satisfactory to such counsel and that you and
they are justified in relying thereon.
(d) You shall have received on the Closing Date, an opinion of
Hunton & Williams, tax counsel for the Company and the Partnership, dated the
Closing Date and addressed to you, as the Underwriters, to the effect that the
Company is organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a
real estate investment trust ("REIT"), pursuant to Sections 856 through 860 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and that the
Company's proposed method of operation enables it to meet the requirements for
qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust under the Code.
The Company has taken all necessary action to be treated, effective beginning
with the year ended December 31, 1994, as a REIT under the Code. The
Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income purposes and
not as a corporation or an association taxable as a corporation. In rendering
the foregoing opinion, such counsel may rely on, as to matters of fact, to the
extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the
Company, the Partnership and the Lessee and certificates or other written
statements of officers or departments of various jurisdictions, having custody
of documents respecting the existence or good standing of the Company, the
Partnership and the Lessee provided that copies of all such opinions,
statements or certificates shall be delivered to Underwriters' counsel.
(e) You shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of
(i) King & Spalding, counsel for the Underwriters, dated the Closing Date and
addressed to you, as the several Underwriters, with respect to the matters
referred to in clauses (iv), (xi), (xix) and (xx) of the foregoing paragraph
(c) and such other related matters as you may request.
-29-
<PAGE> 30
(f) You shall have received letters addressed to you, as the
Underwriters, and dated the date hereof and the Closing Date from Coopers &

10. Effective Date of Agreement. This Agreement shall become

-31-
<PAGE> 32
as this Agreement shall have become effective, it may be terminated by the
Company, by notifying you, or by you, as Representative of the Underwriters, by
notifying the Company.
11. Default of Underwriters. If any one or more of the Underwriters
shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares which it or they are obligated to
purchase hereunder on the Closing Date, and the aggregate number of Shares
which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters are obligated, but fail or
refuse, to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of
Shares which the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date,
each non-defaulting Underwriter shall be obligated, severally, in the
proportion which the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite its name in
Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth
opposite the names of all non-defaulting Underwriters or in such other
proportion as you may specify in accordance with Section 20 of the Master
Agreement Among Underwriters of Smith Barney Inc., to purchase the shares which
such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters are obligated, but fail or refuse,
to purchase. If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to
purchase Shares which it or they are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date
and the aggregate number of Shares with respect to which such default occurs is
more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Shares which the Underwriters
are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to
you and the Company for the purchase of such Shares by one or more
non-defaulting Underwriters or other party or parties approved by you and the
Company are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will
terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or
the Company. In any such case which does not result in termination of this
Agreement, either you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the
Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the
required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or
any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under
this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in
respect of any such default of any such Underwriter under this Agreement. The
term "Underwriter" as used in this Agreement includes, for all purposes of this
Agreement, any party not listed in Schedule I hereto who, with your approval
and the approval of the Company, purchases shares which a defaulting
Underwriter is obligated, but fails or refuses, to purchase.
Any notice under this Section 10 may be given by telegram, telecopy or
telephone but shall be subsequently confirmed within 24 hours by letter.
12. Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall be subject to
termination in your absolute discretion, without liability on the part of any
Underwriter to the Company, by notice to the Company, if prior to the Closing
Date or any Option Closing Date (if different from the Closing Date and then
only as to the Additional Shares), as the case may be, (i) trading in
securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock
Exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market shall have been suspended or materially
limited, (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York
or Texas shall have been declared by either federal or state authorities, or
(iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or
other international or domestic
-32-
<PAGE> 33
calamity, crisis or change in political, financial or economic conditions, the
effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to
make it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to commence or continue
the offering of the Shares at the offering price to the public set forth on the
cover page of the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the resale of the
Shares by the Underwriters. Notice of such termination may be given to the
Company by telegram, telecopy or telephone and shall be subsequently confirmed
by letter.
13. Information Furnished by the Underwriters. The statements set
forth in the last paragraph on the cover page, the stabilization legend on the
inside cover page, the list of Underwriters and their respective allotments
appearing under the caption "Underwriting" in the Prospectus and the statements

Prospectus Supplement and in the Prospectus, constitute the only information
furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriters through you as such information
is referred to in Sections 6(b) and 7 hereof.
14. Notices. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5, 10 and 11
hereof, notice given pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered, mailed or
transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the
Underwriters shall be directed c/o Smith Barney Inc., 388 Greenwich Street, New

benefit of the Underwriters, the Company, the Subsidiary, their respective
directors and officers, and the other controlling persons referred to in
Section 7 hereof and their respective successors and assigns, to the extent
provided herein, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or
by virtue of this Agreement. Neither the term "successor" nor the term
"successors and assigns" as used in this Agreement shall include a purchaser
from any Underwriter of any of the Shares in his status as such purchaser.
16. Applicable Law; Counterparts. This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York.

constitute one and the same instrument. If signed in counterparts, this
