the Purchaser's sole, absolute and unreviewable discretion, the purchase of the
Property for the purposes contemplated by the Purchaser, then the Purchaser may
elect to proceed to Closing and shall so notify the Seller prior to the
expiration of the Study Period.  If for any reason the Purchaser does not so
notify the Seller of its determination to proceed to Closing prior to the
expiration of the Study Period, or if the Purchaser notifies the Seller, in
writing, prior to the expiration of the Study Period that it has determined not
to proceed to Closing, this Agreement automatically shall terminate (except for

otherwise provided in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to have
accepted the condition of the Property as of the expiration of the Study Period
(except for material adverse changes in the environmental condition of the
Property that arise after Purchaser conducts its environmental study of the
Property).

                 (b)      During the Study Period, the Seller shall make
available to the Purchaser, its agents, auditors, engineers, attorneys and
other designees, for inspection copies of all existing architectural and
engineering studies, surveys, title insurance policies, zoning and site plan
materials, or information if any, relating to the operation of the Property
which are in, or come into, the Seller's possession or control.  Purchaser
agrees that all entries on the Property by Purchaser or its agents shall be
after reasonable prior notice to the manager, shall be coordinated with the
manager, and shall be conducted in such a manner so as not to interfere with
the operation of the Hotel.  Purchaser agrees that it will have no
conversations with employees of Seller or the Manager except as coordinated
with the





                                       7
<PAGE>   13

manager of the Hotel and will not discuss the existence of an agreement of sale
or sale of the Hotel until Closing is consummated.

                 (c)      The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless and defend the Seller against any loss, damage or claim to or with
respect to persons or property and the Property arising from or with respect to
entry upon the Real Property by the Purchaser or any agents, contractors or
employees of the Purchaser, such indemnity to survive any termination of this
Agreement.  The Purchaser, at its own expense, shall restore any damage to the
Property caused by any of the tests or studies made by the Purchaser or
resulting from or with respect to any such entry.  The liability or Purchaser
under this Section 2.3(c) shall not be limited as provided in Section 8.4.

                 (d)      During the Study Period, the Purchaser, at its
expense, shall cause an examination of title to the Property to be made, and,
at least five days prior to the expiration of the Study Period, shall notify
the Seller of any defects in title shown by such examination that the Purchaser
is unwilling to accept.  Within three days after such notification, the Seller
shall notify the Purchaser whether or not the Seller is willing to cure such
defects.  If the Seller is willing to cure such defects, the Seller shall act
promptly and diligently to cure such defects at its expense, although Seller
shall not be obligated to do so.  If such defects consist of mechanics' liens,
tax liens or other liens or charges in a fixed sum or capable of computation as
a fixed sum, are non-consensual and are not being disputed by Seller, the
Seller shall pay and discharge (and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and
discharge at Closing) such defects at Closing, such amounts not to exceed
$200,000.  In the event such defects consist of deeds of trust, the Seller
shall pay and discharge (and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and
discharge at Closing) such defects at Closing.   If, for any reason, whether
reasonable or unreasonable, the Seller is unwilling or unable to cure any other
such defects (including liens for amounts greater than $200,000) by Closing, or
if Seller fails to respond to Purchaser's notice of title defects, the
Purchaser shall, as its sole remedy, elect (1) to waive such defects and
proceed to Closing without any abatement in the Purchase Price or (2) to
terminate this Agreement (with Section 2.3(c) surviving) and receive a full
refund of the Deposit.  The Seller shall not, after the date of this Agreement,
subject the Property to any liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions,
restrictions, easements or other title matters or seek any zoning changes or
take any other action which may affect or modify the status of title without
the Purchaser's prior written consent.  All title matters not objected to by
the Purchaser as provided above shall be deemed Permitted Title Exceptions.  If
Purchaser shall fail to notify the Seller of any such title objections by the
end of the Study Period, all such title exceptions (other than those that are
to be paid at Closing as provided above) shall be deemed Permitted Title
Exceptions.

         2.4     Payment of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price shall be paid
to the Seller in the following manner:





                                       8
<PAGE>   14

                 (a)      The Purchaser shall receive a credit against the
Purchase Price in an amount equal to the Deposit upon receipt by Seller of the
Deposit.

                 (b)      The Purchaser shall pay the balance of the Purchase
Price, as adjusted in the manner specified in Article VI and as set forth
below, to the Seller or other applicable party at Closing by making a wire
transfer of immediately available federal funds to the account of the Seller or
other applicable party as specified in writing by the Seller.

         2.5     Allocation of Purchase Price.  The parties agree that the
Purchase Price shall be allocated among the various components of the Property
in a manner to be agreed to at Closing.


                                  ARTICLE III
               SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

         To induce the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to purchase
the Property, the Seller hereby makes the following representations, warranties
and covenants with respect to the Property, upon each of which the Seller
acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser is entitled to rely and has relied:

         3.1     Organization and Power.  The Seller is a limited partnership
duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of New Jersey and has all requisite powers to enter into and perform its
obligations hereunder and under any document or instrument required to be
executed and delivered on behalf of the Seller hereunder.

         3.2     Authorization and Execution.  This Agreement has been duly
authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Seller, has been duly
executed and delivered by the Seller, constitutes the valid and binding
agreement of the Seller and is enforceable against the Seller.

         3.3     Noncontravention.  The execution and delivery of, and the
performance by the Seller of its obligations under, this Agreement do not and
will not contravene, or constitute a default under, the Seller's Organizational
Documents or any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other
instrument binding upon the Seller, or result in the creation of any lien or
other encumbrance on the Property.  There are no outstanding agreements
(written or oral) pursuant to which the Seller (or representative of the
Seller, or to Manager's knowledge any predecessor to Seller) has agreed to sell
or has granted an option or right of first refusal to purchase the Property or
any part thereof, except for a right of first refusal to Licensor under the
Franchise Agreement.

         3.4     No Special Taxes.  To Manager's knowledge, the Seller has not
received any notice of special taxes or assessments relating to the Property or
any part thereof or any





                                       9
<PAGE>   15

planned public improvements that may result in a special tax or assessment
against the Property.

         3.5     Compliance with Existing Laws.  To Manager's knowledge, the
Seller possesses all Authorizations, and the Authorizations constitute all
licenses, permits and approvals required by any governmental or
quasi-governmental agency, body or office for the ownership, operation and use
of the Property or any part thereof.  To Manager's knowledge, each such
Authorization is valid and in full force and effect, no provision, condition or
limitation of any of the Authorizations has been breached or violated in any
material way, and no required licenses or permits are missing which are
material to Hotel operations.  To Manager's knowledge, there are no uncured
violations of governmental requirements with respect to the Property, and
Seller has not received notice of violations which are uncured.

         3.6     Operating Agreements.  The Seller has performed all of its
obligations under each of the Operating Agreements required to be performed to
the date of this Agreement and to Manager's knowledge, no fact or circumstance
has occurred which, by itself or with the passage of time or the giving of
notice or both, would constitute a default under any of the Operating
Agreements.  The Seller shall not enter into any new management agreement,
maintenance or repair contract, supply contract, lease in which it is lessee or
other agreements with respect to the Property, nor shall the Seller enter into
any agreements modifying the Operating Agreements, unless (a) any such
agreement or modification will not bind the Purchaser or the Property after the
date of Closing or (b) the Seller has obtained the Purchaser's prior written
consent to such agreement or modification, which consent shall not unreasonably
be withheld or delayed.  Except as otherwise stated herein, the Seller agrees
to cancel and terminate, as of Closing, all of the Operating Agreements which
Purchaser requests in writing, prior to Closing, that remain in effect after
Closing, but only if such Operating Agreements permit termination by their
terms without penalty or payment, or such Operating Agreements permit
termination pursuant to their terms upon a specified payment, only if Purchaser
agrees to, and does, make such payment at Closing.  Purchaser acknowledges that
certain Operating Agreements may require notice periods to terminate which may
result in termination after Closing, and these Operating Agreements shall be
assigned pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided Seller
follows all necessary procedures to terminate such Operating Agreements
promptly after the end of the Study Period and after receipt of Purchaser's
request for termination.

         3.7     Warranties and Guaranties.  The Seller shall not before or
after Closing, release or modify any warranties or guarantees, if any, of
manufacturers, suppliers and installers relating to the Improvements and the
Personal Property or any part thereof, except with the prior written consent of
the Purchaser.  To Manager's knowledge, a complete list of all such warranties
and guaranties in effect as of this date is attached hereto as Exhibit G.





                                       10
<PAGE>   16

         3.8     Condemnation Proceedings; Roadways.  The Seller has received
no written notice of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding pending
against the Property or any part thereof.  To Manager's knowledge, there are no
eminent domain proceedings threatened against the Property and no imminent or
proposed changes in the route, grade or width of, or otherwise affecting, any
street or road adjacent to or serving the Real Property.

         3.9     Litigation.  There is no action, suit or proceeding pending
or, to Manager's knowledge, known to be threatened against or affecting the
Seller in any court, before any arbitrator or before or by any Governmental
Body which (a) in any manner raises any question affecting the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which
the Seller is a party or by which it is bound and that is or is to be used in
connection with, or is contemplated by, this Agreement, (b) could materially
and adversely affect the business, financial position or results of operations
of the Hotel, (c) could materially and adversely affect the ability of the
Seller to perform its obligations hereunder, or under any document to be
delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) could otherwise materially and adversely
affect the Property, any part thereof or any interest therein or the use,
operation, condition or occupancy thereof.

         3.10    Labor Disputes and Agreements.  There are no actions filed
with respect to labor disputes which are pending or, to Manager's knowledge,
threatened as to the operation or maintenance of the Property or any part
thereof.  The Seller is not a party to any union or other collective bargaining
agreement with employees employed in connection with the ownership, operation
or maintenance of the Property.  To Manager's knowledge, the Seller is not a
party to any employment contracts or agreements other than the Employment
Agreements, and neither the Seller nor its managing agent will, between the
date hereof and the date of Closing, enter into any new employment contracts or
agreements or hire any new employees whose employment is not terminable on or
prior to Closing, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser, not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The Purchaser will not be obligated to
give or pay any amount to any employee of the Seller or the Seller's managing
agent unless the Purchaser elects to hire that employee, and except for amounts
to be paid pursuant to Section 6.5.  The Purchaser shall not have any liability
under any pension or profit sharing plan that the Seller or its managing agent
may have established with respect to the Property or their or its employees.

         3.11    Financial Information.  To Manager's knowledge, all of the
Seller's financial information, including, without limitation, all books and
records and financial statements ("Financial Information") delivered to
Purchaser by Seller, is correct and complete in all material respects and
presents accurately the results of the operations of the Property for the
periods indicated.

         3.12    Operation of Property.  The Seller covenants, that between the
date hereof and the date of Closing, it will (a) operate the Property only in
the usual, regular and ordinary





                                       11
<PAGE>   17

manner consistent with the Seller's prior practice (except that Seller will not
be required to make any capital expenditures with the exception of expenditures
for routine monthly maintenance items), and (b) maintain its books of account
and records in the usual, regular and ordinary manner, on a basis consistent
with the basis used in keeping its books in prior years.  The Seller covenants
it shall continue to take guest room reservations and to book functions and
meetings and otherwise to promote the business of the Property in generally the
same manner as the Seller did prior to the execution of this Agreement.  Seller
covenants all advance room bookings and reservations and all meetings and
function bookings shall continue to be booked at rates, prices and charges
heretofore customarily charged by the Seller for such purposes.  Seller agrees
not to lower the published rates prior to Closing.  Except as otherwise
permitted hereby, from the date hereof until Closing, the Seller covenants it
shall not take any action or fail to take action the result of which (i) would
have a material adverse effect on the Property or the Purchaser's ability to
continue the operation thereof after the date of Closing in substantially the
same manner as presently conducted, or (ii) would cause any of the
representations and warranties contained in this Article III to be untrue as of
Closing.  Seller covenants it shall deliver to the Purchaser daily reports (on
a weekly basis) showing the income and monthly reports showing expenses of the
Hotel and all departments thereof, together with such periodic information with
respect to room reservations and other bookings, as the Seller customarily
keeps internally for its own use.

         3.13    Personal Property.  All of the Tangible Personal Property (to
the extent assignable), Intangible Personal Property (to the extent assignable)
and Inventory being conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser or to the
Purchaser's managing agent, lessee or designee, are free and clear of all
liens, leases and other encumbrances and will be so on the date of Closing and
the Seller has good, merchantable title thereto and, to the extent assignable,
the right to convey same in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

         3.14    Bankruptcy.  No Act of Bankruptcy has occurred with respect to
the Seller or any of the partners of the Seller.

         3.15    Zoning.  To Manager's knowledge, the current use and occupancy
of the Property for hotel and restaurant purposes are permitted as a matter of
right as a principal use under all laws applicable thereto without the
necessity of any special use permit, special exception or other special permit,
permission or consent.

         3.16    Historical Districts.  To Manager's knowledge, neither the
Property, nor any portion thereof, is (a) listed, or eligible to be listed, in
any national, state or local register of historic places or areas, or (b)
located within any designated district or area in which the permitted uses of
land located therein are restricted by regulations, rules or laws other than
those specified under local zoning ordinances.

         3.17    Brokerage Commission.   Except for the Broker, the Seller has
not engaged the services of, nor is it or will it become liable to, any real
estate agent, broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or
finder's fee, commission or other amount with respect to the transactions
described herein.


                 3.18     Hazardous Substances.  Except to the extent disclosed
in the Phase I and Partial Phase II Environmental Site Assessment given by
Seller to Purchaser prepared by Underwood Engineering Testing Co., Inc., and
dated August 26, 1991, Manager has no knowledge of (a) the presence of any
"Hazardous Substances" (as defined below) on the Property, or any portion
thereof, or, (b) of any spills, releases, discharges, or disposal of Hazardous
Substances that have occurred or are presently occurring on or onto the
Property, or any portion thereof, or (c) of the presence of any PCB
transformers used, or stored on, the Property, or any portion thereof, and (d)
any failure of the Property to comply with any applicable local, state and
federal environmental laws, regulations, ordinances and administrative and
judicial orders relating to the generation, recycling, reuse, sale, storage,
handling, transport and disposal of any Hazardous Substances (as used herein,
"Hazardous Substances" shall mean any substance or material (excluding those
used in connection with the operation of the Property in accordance with
applicable laws and trace amounts thereof generated in the operation of the
Property, such as, without limitation, petroleum waste products on surface
parking lots and driveways) whose presence, nature, quantity or intensity of
existence, use, manufacture, disposal, transportation, spill, release or
effect, either by itself or in combination with other materials is either:  (1)
potentially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, the environment
or the Property, (2) regulated, monitored or defined as a hazardous or toxic
substance or waste by any Environmental Authority, or (3) a basis for liability
of the owner of the Property to any Environmental Authority or third party, and
Hazardous Substances shall include, but not be limited to, hydrocarbons,
petroleum, gasoline, crude oil, or any products, by-products or components
thereof, and asbestos).

         3.19    Independent Audit.  Seller covenants it shall provide access
to Purchaser's representatives, to all financial and other information relating
to the Property which would be sufficient to enable them to prepare audited
financial statements for the period from May 1, 1994 to June 1, 1996 in
conformity with Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") and to enable them to prepare a registration statement, report or

also provide to Purchaser's representatives a signed representative letter in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

         3.20    Noncompetition.  The Seller shall not construct a limited
service, extended stay hotel in any area located within three miles of any

The provisions of this Section 3.20 shall apply solely to





                                       13
<PAGE>   19

Amerimar Cherry Hill Associates Limited Partnership and shall not apply to any
of its successors, assigns, affiliates, partners, employees, or other
representatives.

         3.21    Insurance.  Seller covenants that between the date of this
Agreement and consummation of Closing, Seller shall maintain the level of
insurance coverage it currently maintains for the Property.

Each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Article
III and its various subparagraphs are intended for the benefit of the Purchaser
and may be waived in whole or in part, by the Purchaser, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Purchaser.  Each of the representations and
warranties of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11,
3.13, 3.14, 3.15, 3.16, and 3.17 of this Article III shall survive the closing
of the transactions contemplated hereby for the earlier to occur of one (1)
year after the Closing Date or a sale assignment or other transfer of the
Property by Purchaser (unless Purchaser makes a claim by notice in writing to
Seller in connection with the untruth or inaccuracy of such representation or
warranty within such one (1) year period, in which event the representation or
warranty that is the subject of such claim shall survive until such claim is
finally resolved) except to the extent that Seller gives Purchaser written
notice prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty, or Purchaser otherwise obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing of
the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty, and Purchaser
nevertheless elects to close this transaction (in which event the same shall
not survive).  The representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.18
shall survive the Closing for the earlier to occur of two (2) years after the
Closing Date or a sale, assignment or other transfer of the Property by
Purchaser and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.20
shall survive the Closing for the earlier to occur of five (5) years after the
Closing Date or a sale, assignment or other transfer of the Property by
Purchaser.  Unless this Agreement provides that they shall survive Closing, no
warranty, representation or covenant shall survive Closing and shall be deemed
merged into the deed of conveyance and other instruments of transfer.  Except
as provided above, no investigation, audit, inspection, review or the like
conducted by or on behalf of the Purchaser shall be deemed to terminate the
effect of any such representations, warranties and covenants, it being
understood that the Purchaser has the right to rely thereon and that each such
representation, warranty and covenant constitutes a material inducement to the
Purchaser to execute this Agreement and to close the transaction contemplated
hereby and to pay the Purchase Price to the Seller.  Notwithstanding anything
in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser for
any loss Purchaser may suffer by reason of a breach or any warranties, except
to the extent (and only in excess of such loss) exceeds $25,000, subject
nevertheless to the limitations of Section 8.3.

         To induce the Seller to enter into this Agreement and to sell the
Property, the Purchaser hereby makes the following representations, warranties
and covenants with respect to the Property, upon each of which the Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that the Seller is entitled to rely and has relied:

         4.1     Organization and Power.  The Purchaser is a limited
partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Virginia, and has all partnership powers and all
governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to carry on its
business as now conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under
this Agreement and any document or instrument required to be executed and
delivered on behalf of the Purchaser hereunder.

         4.2     Authorization and Execution.  Subject to Section 5.1(e), this
Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the
Purchaser, has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser, constitutes
the valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser and is enforceable against the
Purchaser.

         4.3     Noncontravention.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the performance by the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder do
not and will not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provisions of
applicable law or regulation, the Purchaser's partnership agreement or any
agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon
the Purchaser or result in the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on any
asset of the Purchaser.

         4.4     Litigation.  There is no action, suit or proceeding, pending
or known to be threatened, against or affecting the Purchaser in any court or
before any arbitrator or before any Governmental Body which (a) in any manner
raises any question affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement
or any other agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by
which it is bound and that is to be used in connection with, or is contemplated
by, this Agreement, (b) could materially and adversely affect the business,
financial position or results of operations of the Purchaser, (c) could
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to perform its
obligations hereunder, or under any document to be delivered pursuant hereto,
(d) could create a lien on the Property, any part thereof or any interest
therein or (e) could adversely affect the Property, any part thereof or any
interest therein or the use, operation, condition or occupancy thereof.

<PAGE>   21

         4.6     Brokerage Commission.  The Purchaser has not engaged the
services of, nor is it or will it become liable to, any real estate agent,
broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or finder's fee,
commission or other amount with respect to the transaction described herein.

         Each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in
this Article IV and its various subparagraphs are intended for the benefit of
Seller and may be waived in whole or in part, by the Seller, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Seller.  Each of said representations and
warranties of this Article IV shall survive the closing of the transactions
contemplated hereby for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date (unless
Seller makes a claim by notice in writing to Purchaser in connection with the
untruth or inaccuracy of such representation or warranty within such one (1)
year period, in which event the representation or warranty that is the subject
of such claim shall survive until such claim is finally resolved) except to the
extent that Purchaser gives Seller written notice prior to Closing of the
untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty, or Seller otherwise
obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty, and Seller nevertheless elects to close this
transaction.  No investigation, audit, inspection, review or the like conducted
by or on behalf of the Seller shall be deemed to terminate the effect of any
such representations, warranties and covenants, it being understood that Seller
has the right to rely thereon and that each such representation, warranty and
covenant constitutes a material inducement to the Seller to execute this
Agreement and complete Closing.  Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to
the contrary, Purchaser shall not be liable to Seller for any loss Seller may
suffer by reason of a breach of any warranties except to the extent (and only
in excess of) such loss exceeds $25,000 subject nevertheless to the limitations
of Section 8.4.


                                   ARTICLE V
                      CONDITIONS AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

         5.1.    Seller's Conditions Precedent.  The Purchaser's obligations
hereunder are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent
and the compliance by the Seller with the following covenants:

                 (a)      Seller's Deliveries.  The Seller shall have delivered
to the Escrow Agent or the Purchaser, as the case may be, on or before the date

pursuant to Section 6.2.

                 (b)      Representations, Warranties and Covenants;

                                       16
<PAGE>   22

since the date of the expiration of the Study Period, the Seller shall have
performed all of its covenants and other obligations under this Agreement and
the Seller shall have executed and delivered to the Purchaser at Closing a
certificate to the foregoing effect which shall provide that it is subject to
the same limitations as provided in the last paragraph of Article III.

                 (c)      Title to Property.  Seller's title to the Real
Property and to the Tangible Personal Property at Closing shall be free and
clear of all liens, leases, encumbrances, restrictions, conditions and
agreements except for Permitted Title Exceptions and those exceptions that are
to be paid by Seller at Closing as provided in Section 2.3(d).  The Seller
shall not have taken any action from the date hereof and through and including
the date of Closing that would adversely affect the status of title to the Real
Property.

                 (d)      Condition of Improvements.  The Improvements and the
Tangible Personal Property (including but not limited to the mechanical
systems, plumbing, electrical, wiring, appliances, fixtures, heating, air
conditioning and ventilating equipment, elevators, boilers, equipment, roofs,
structural members and furnaces) shall be in the same condition at Closing as
they are as of the date hereof, reasonable wear and tear excepted.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser notifies Seller that
Purchaser has elected to proceed to Closing as provided in Section 2.3 above,
Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted the condition of the Property as of
the last day of the Study Period (except for material adverse changes in the
environmental condition of the Property that arise after Purchaser conducts its
environmental study of the Property).  Prior to Closing, the Seller shall not
have materially diminished the quality or quantity of maintenance and upkeep
services heretofore provided to the Real Property and the Tangible Personal
Property, taking into account cyclical history and force majeure, and the
Seller shall not have materially depleted the Inventory, taking into account
cyclical history and force majeure.  The Seller shall not have removed or
caused or permitted to be removed any material part or portion of the Real
Property or, except for consumables (which shall be replaced in Seller's normal
manner), material portions of the Tangible Personal Property unless the same is
replaced, prior to Closing, with similar items of at least equal quality and
acceptable to the Purchaser.

                 (e)      Approvals.  The obligations of the Purchaser under
this Agreement are subject to the approval ("Board Approval") at least 5 days

Innkeepers Financial Corporation, a Virginia corporation, general partner of
the Purchaser, and (ii) the board of trustees of Innkeepers USA Trust, a
Maryland real estate investment trust (the "REIT").  If Purchaser does not
notify Seller in writing prior to expiration of the Study Period that Board
approval has not been obtained, this condition shall be deemed waived.

                 (f)      License.  From the date hereof to and including the
Closing Date, Seller shall comply with and perform all of the duties and
obligations of licensee under the Franchise Agreement.

not have committed a material default under that certain Agreement of Purchase
and Sale with Purchaser of even date herewith.

         In the event Closing is consummated, all conditions precedent of

hereunder are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent
and the compliance by the Purchaser with the following covenants:

revenues accrued prior to the Closing Date for Seller, and Seller shall retain
the right to receive the same, but if Purchaser collects same, such amounts
will be promptly remitted to Seller in the form received.

         If accurate allocations cannot be made at Closing because current
bills are not obtainable (as, for example, in the case of utility bills or tax
bills), the parties shall allocate such income or expenses at Closing on the
best available information, subject to adjustment upon receipt of the final
bill or other evidence of the applicable income or expense.  All allocations
shall become final one year after Closing except for taxes or impositions of
any governmental authority.  Any income received or expense incurred by the
Seller or the

promptly pay or reimburse any amount due.  The Seller shall pay at Closing all
special assessments and taxes applicable to the Property.

                           CONDEMNATION; RISK OF LOSS

         7.1     Condemnation.  In the event of any actual or threatened
taking, pursuant to the power of eminent domain, of all or any portion of the
Real Property, or any proposed sale in lieu thereof, the Seller shall give
written notice thereof to the Purchaser promptly after the Seller learns or
receives notice thereof.  If all or any part of the Real Property is, or is to
be, so condemned or sold, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3.  If the Purchaser elects not to terminate
this Agreement, all proceeds, awards and other payments arising out of such
condemnation or sale (actual or threatened) shall be paid or assigned, as
applicable, to the Purchaser at Closing upon payment of the full Purchase Price
to Seller.

         7.2     Risk of Loss.  The risk of any loss or damage to the Property
prior to the recordation of the Deed shall remain upon the Seller.  If any such
loss or damage occurs prior to Closing and the cost to repair reasonably is
estimated to exceed $100,000, the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate
this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.3.  If the Purchaser elects not to
terminate this Agreement, all insurance proceeds and rights to proceeds arising
out of such loss or damage shall be paid or assigned, as applicable, to the
Purchaser at Closing upon payment of the full Purchase Price to Seller.

                               TERMINATION RIGHTS

         8.1     Liability of Purchaser.  Except for any obligation expressly
assumed or agreed to be assumed by the Purchaser hereunder, the Purchaser does
not assume any obligation of the Seller or any liability for claims arising out
of any occurrence prior to Closing.

                 (a)      Indemnification by Seller.  Subject to the

knowledge prior to the Closing Date and nevertheless elected to consummate the
Closing, (2) the ownership or operation of the Property prior to the Closing
Date, including but not limited to, any and all liabilities incurred, resulting
from, or in any way arising out of, any injury to persons or damage to property
happening or occurring prior to the Closing Date, in or on the Property or in
connection with the operation of the Seller or the Property, (3) any and all
liabilities of the Seller or the partners of Seller of any nature, whether

claims against the Seller arising out of breaches, acts or omissions occurring
prior to the Closing Date under or relating to any contract or commitment or
alleged contract or commitment of any nature entered into or made by the
Seller, any of the partners of the Seller, or any affiliate of them prior to
the Closing Date, including, without limitation, any claim for brokerage fees
or expenses for which the partners or the Seller are responsible and any claim
by any governmental agency or authority for any tax under the laws of any state
or country.

                 (b)      Indemnification by Purchaser.  Subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 8.4 and only to the extent (and only such
excess) such loss exceeds $25,000, the Purchaser hereby indemnifies and holds
Seller harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, penalties, damages,
losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that
may at any time be incurred by Seller, whether before or after Closing, as a
result of (1) any material breach by the Purchaser of any of its
representations, warranties, covenants or obligations set forth herein except
for any breach of a representation or warranty of which Seller had actual
knowledge prior to the Closing Date and nevertheless elected to consummate the
Closing, (2) the ownership or operation of the Property on or after the Closing
Date, including but not limited to, any and all liabilities incurred, resulting
from, or in any way arising out of, any injury to persons or damage to property

in connection with the operation of the Purchaser or the Property, (3) any and
all liabilities of the Purchaser or the partners of Purchaser of any nature,

conduct of the business of the Purchaser from its inception to the Closing
Date, or existing on or after the Closing Date, and (4) any and all liabilities

affiliate of them on or after the Closing Date, including, without limitation,
any claim for brokerage fees or expenses for which the partners or the
Purchaser are responsible and any claim by any governmental agency or authority
for any tax under the laws of any state or country.

         The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall survive the Closing of the
transaction contemplated hereby for a period of one (1) year (or a shorter
period if elsewhere in this Agreement so provided) after the Closing Date
(unless Purchaser or Seller makes a claim by notice in writing to the other
party in connection with any such representation, warranty, covenant or
obligation that is the subject of such claim shall survive until such claim is
finally resolved).

         8.3     Termination by Purchaser.  If any condition precedent to
Purchaser's obligation set forth herein cannot or will not be satisfied prior
to Closing, or upon the occurrence of any other event that would entitle the
Purchaser to terminate this Agreement and its obligations hereunder, and the
Seller fails to cure any such matter within ten business days after notice
thereof from the Purchaser, the Purchaser, at its option, as its sole remedy,
may elect either (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit
shall be forthwith returned to the Purchaser and all other rights and
obligations of the Seller and the Purchaser hereunder shall terminate
immediately, or (b) to waive its right to terminate and, instead, to proceed to
Closing.  Notwithstanding any termination hereof, the parties shall
nevertheless remain liable under Sections 2.3(c), 3.17 and 4.6.  If the
Purchaser terminates this Agreement as a consequence of a misrepresentation or
breach of a warranty or covenant by the Seller, or a failure by the Seller to
perform its obligations hereunder, the Purchaser shall retain all remedies
accruing as a result thereof including but not limited to the right to specific
performance of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, Seller's liability under this Agreement shall be limited to an
amount equal to the amount of the Deposit.

         8.4     Termination by Seller.  If, prior to Closing, the Purchaser
defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (including
its obligation to purchase the Property), and the Purchaser fails to cure any
such default within ten business days after notice thereof from the Seller,
then the Seller's sole remedy for such default shall be either (a) to waive
such default and proceed to consummate Closing, or (b) to terminate this
Agreement and retain the Deposit.  Notwithstanding any termination hereof, the
parties shall nevertheless remain liable under Sections 2.3(c), 3.17 and 4.6.
The Seller and the Purchaser agree that, in the event of such a default, the
damages that the Seller would sustain as a result thereof would be difficult if
not impossible to ascertain.  Therefore, the Seller and the Purchaser agree
that, the Seller shall retain the Deposit as full and complete liquidated
damages and as the Seller's sole remedy.

accordance with the other terms and conditions set forth herein.





                                       6

         2.2     Deposit.  The Purchaser shall make on the date hereof an
initial deposit of Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000.00) with the
Escrow Agent (the "Deposit").  The Deposit, plus all interest that accrues
thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser if it fails, prior to the end of the
Study Period, to notify the Seller in writing, pursuant to Section 2.3, that
the Purchaser elects to proceed to Closing.  The Deposit, plus all interest
that accrues thereon, shall be (a) applied at the Closing against the Purchase
Price, (b) returned to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.3 or (c) paid to the
Seller pursuant to Section 8.4.  Subject to Section 2.2(c) herein, all interest
on the Deposit shall accrue in favor of the Purchaser.

         2.3     Study Period.  (a) The Purchaser shall have the right, until
5:00 p.m. on the last day of the Study Period, and thereafter if the Purchaser
notifies the Seller that the Purchaser has elected to proceed to Closing in the
manner described below, to enter upon the Real Property and to perform, at the
Purchaser's expense, such economic, surveying, engineering, environmental,
topographic and marketing tests, studies and investigations as the Purchaser
may deem appropriate.  If such tests, studies and investigations warrant, in
the Purchaser's sole, absolute and unreviewable discretion, the purchase of the
Property for the purposes contemplated by the Purchaser, then the Purchaser may
elect to proceed to Closing and shall so notify the Seller prior to the
expiration of the Study Period.  If for any reason the Purchaser does not so
notify the Seller of its determination to proceed to Closing prior to the
expiration of the Study Period, or if the Purchaser notifies the Seller, in
writing, prior to the expiration of the Study Period that it has determined not
to proceed to Closing, this Agreement automatically shall terminate (except for
Purchaser's obligations under Section 2.3(c) below), the Deposit shall be
returned to the Purchaser and upon return of the Deposit, the Purchaser shall
be released from any further liability or obligation under this Agreement,
except for Purchaser's obligations under Section 2.3(c) below.  In the event
prior to the expiration of the Study Period, Purchaser notifies the Seller that
the Purchaser has elected to proceed to Closing as aforesaid, except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be deemed to have
accepted the condition of the Property as of the expiration of the Study Period
(except for material adverse changes in the environmental condition of the
Property that arise after Purchaser conducts its environmental study of the
Property).

                 (b)      During the Study Period, the Seller shall make
available to the Purchaser, its agents, auditors, engineers, attorneys and
other designees, for inspection copies of all existing architectural and
engineering studies, surveys, title insurance policies, zoning and site plan
materials, or information if any, relating to the operation of the Property
which are in, or come into, the Seller's possession or control.  Purchaser
agrees that all entries on the Property by Purchaser or its agents shall be
after reasonable prior notice to the manager, shall be coordinated with the
manager, and shall be conducted in such a manner so as not to interfere with
the operation of the Hotel.  Purchaser agrees that it will have no
conversations with employees of Seller or the Manager except as coordinated
with the





                                       7
<PAGE>   13

manager of the Hotel and will not discuss the existence of an agreement of sale
or sale of the Hotel until Closing is consummated.

                 (c)      The Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, hold
harmless and defend the Seller against any loss, damage or claim to or with
respect to persons or property and the Property arising from or with respect to
entry upon the Real Property by the Purchaser or any agents, contractors or
employees of the Purchaser, such indemnity to survive any termination of this
Agreement.  The Purchaser, at its own expense, shall restore any damage to the
Property caused by any of the tests or studies made by the Purchaser or
resulting from or with respect to any such entry.  The liability or Purchaser
under this Section 2.3(c) shall not be limited as provided in Section 8.4.

                 (d)      During the Study Period, the Purchaser, at its
expense, shall cause an examination of title to the Property to be made, and,
at least five days prior to the expiration of the Study Period, shall notify
the Seller of any defects in title shown by such examination that the Purchaser
is unwilling to accept.  Within three days after such notification, the Seller
shall notify the Purchaser whether or not the Seller is willing to cure such
defects.  If the Seller is willing to cure such defects, the Seller shall act
promptly and diligently to cure such defects at its expense, although Seller
shall not be obligated to do so.  If such defects consist of mechanics' liens,
tax liens or other liens or charges in a fixed sum or capable of computation as
a fixed sum, are non-consensual and are not being disputed by Seller, the
Seller shall pay and discharge (and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and
discharge at Closing) such defects at Closing, such amounts not to exceed
$200,000.  In the event such defects consist of deeds of trust, the Seller
shall pay and discharge (and the Escrow Agent is authorized to pay and
discharge at Closing) such defects at Closing.   If, for any reason, whether
reasonable or unreasonable, the Seller is unwilling or unable to cure any other
such defects (including liens for amounts greater than $200,000) by Closing, or
if Seller fails to respond to Purchaser's notice of title defects, the
Purchaser shall, as its sole remedy, elect (1) to waive such defects and
proceed to Closing without any abatement in the Purchase Price or (2) to
terminate this Agreement (with Section 2.3(c) surviving) and receive a full
refund of the Deposit.  The Seller shall not, after the date of this Agreement,
subject the Property to any liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions,
restrictions, easements or other title matters or seek any zoning changes or
take any other action which may affect or modify the status of title without
the Purchaser's prior written consent.  All title matters not objected to by
the Purchaser as provided above shall be deemed Permitted Title Exceptions.  If
Purchaser shall fail to notify the Seller of any such title objections by the
end of the Study Period, all such title exceptions (other than those that are
to be paid at Closing as provided above) shall be deemed Permitted Title
Exceptions.

         2.4     Payment of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price shall be paid
to the Seller in the following manner:





                                       8
<PAGE>   14

                 (a)      The Purchaser shall receive a credit against the
Purchase Price in an amount equal to the Deposit upon receipt by Seller of the
Deposit.

                 (b)      The Purchaser shall pay the balance of the Purchase
Price, as adjusted in the manner specified in Article VI and as set forth
below, to the Seller or other applicable party at Closing by making a wire
transfer of immediately available federal funds to the account of the Seller or
other applicable party as specified in writing by the Seller.

         2.5     Allocation of Purchase Price.  The parties agree that the
Purchase Price shall be allocated among the various components of the Property
in a manner to be agreed to at Closing.


                                  ARTICLE III
               SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

         To induce the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to purchase
the Property, the Seller hereby makes the following representations, warranties
and covenants with respect to the Property, upon each of which the Seller
acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser is entitled to rely and has relied:

         3.1     Organization and Power.  The Seller is a general partnership
duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of Pennsylvania and has all requisite powers to enter into and perform its
obligations hereunder and under any document or instrument required to be
executed and delivered on behalf of the Seller hereunder.

         3.2     Authorization and Execution.  This Agreement has been duly
authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Seller, has been duly
executed and delivered by the Seller, constitutes the valid and binding
agreement of the Seller and is enforceable against the Seller.

         3.3     Noncontravention.  The execution and delivery of, and the
performance by the Seller of its obligations under, this Agreement do not and
will not contravene, or constitute a default under, the Seller's Organizational
Documents or any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other
instrument binding upon the Seller, or result in the creation of any lien or
other encumbrance on the Property.  There are no outstanding agreements
(written or oral) pursuant to which the Seller (or representative of the
Seller, or to Manager's knowledge any predecessor to Seller) has agreed to sell
or has granted an option or right of first refusal to purchase the Property or
any part thereof, except for a right of first refusal to Licensor under the
Franchise Agreement.

         3.4     No Special Taxes.  To Manager's knowledge, the Seller has not
received any notice of special taxes or assessments relating to the Property or
any part thereof or any





                                       9
<PAGE>   15

planned public improvements that may result in a special tax or assessment
against the Property.

         3.5     Compliance with Existing Laws.  To Manager's knowledge, the
Seller possesses all Authorizations, and the Authorizations constitute all
licenses, permits and approvals required by any governmental or
quasi-governmental agency, body or office for the ownership, operation and use
of the Property or any part thereof.  To Manager's knowledge, each such
Authorization is valid and in full force and effect, no provision, condition or
limitation of any of the Authorizations has been breached or violated in any
material way, and no required licenses or permits are missing which are
material to Hotel operations.  To Manager's knowledge, there are no uncured
violations of governmental requirements with respect to the Property, and
Seller has not received notice of violations which are uncured.

         3.6     Operating Agreements.  The Seller has performed all of its
obligations under each of the Operating Agreements required to be performed to
the date of this Agreement and to Manager's knowledge, no fact or circumstance
has occurred which, by itself or with the passage of time or the giving of
notice or both, would constitute a default under any of the Operating
Agreements.  The Seller shall not enter into any new management agreement,
maintenance or repair contract, supply contract, lease in which it is lessee or
other agreements with respect to the Property, nor shall the Seller enter into
any agreements modifying the Operating Agreements, unless (a) any such
agreement or modification will not bind the Purchaser or the Property after the
date of Closing or (b) the Seller has obtained the Purchaser's prior written
consent to such agreement or modification, which consent shall not unreasonably
be withheld or delayed.  Except as otherwise stated herein, the Seller agrees
to cancel and terminate, as of Closing, all of the Operating Agreements which
Purchaser requests in writing, prior to Closing, that remain in effect after
Closing, but only if such Operating Agreements permit termination by their
terms without penalty or payment, or such Operating Agreements permit
termination pursuant to their terms upon a specified payment, only if Purchaser
agrees to, and does, make such payment at Closing.  Purchaser acknowledges that
certain Operating Agreements may require notice periods to terminate which may
result in termination after Closing, and these Operating Agreements shall be
assigned pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided Seller
follows all necessary procedures to terminate such Operating Agreements
promptly after the end of the Study Period and after receipt of Purchaser's
request for termination.

         3.7     Warranties and Guaranties.  The Seller shall not before or
after Closing, release or modify any warranties or guarantees, if any, of
manufacturers, suppliers and installers relating to the Improvements and the
Personal Property or any part thereof, except with the prior written consent of
the Purchaser.  To Manager's knowledge, a complete list of all such warranties
and guaranties in effect as of this date is attached hereto as Exhibit G.





                                       10
<PAGE>   16

         3.8     Condemnation Proceedings; Roadways.  The Seller has received
no written notice of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding pending
against the Property or any part thereof.  To Manager's knowledge, there are no
eminent domain proceedings threatened against the Property and no imminent or
proposed changes in the route, grade or width of, or otherwise affecting, any
street or road adjacent to or serving the Real Property.

         3.9     Litigation.  There is no action, suit or proceeding pending
or, to Manager's knowledge, known to be threatened against or affecting the
Seller in any court, before any arbitrator or before or by any Governmental
Body which (a) in any manner raises any question affecting the validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which
the Seller is a party or by which it is bound and that is or is to be used in
connection with, or is contemplated by, this Agreement, (b) could materially
and adversely affect the business, financial position or results of operations
of the Hotel, (c) could materially and adversely affect the ability of the
Seller to perform its obligations hereunder, or under any document to be
delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) could otherwise materially and adversely
affect the Property, any part thereof or any interest therein or the use,
operation, condition or occupancy thereof.

         3.10    Labor Disputes and Agreements.  There are no actions filed
with respect to labor disputes which are pending or, to Manager's knowledge,
threatened as to the operation or maintenance of the Property or any part
thereof.  The Seller is not a party to any union or other collective bargaining
agreement with employees employed in connection with the ownership, operation
or maintenance of the Property.  To Manager's knowledge, the Seller is not a
party to any employment contracts or agreements other than the Employment
Agreements, and neither the Seller nor its managing agent will, between the
date hereof and the date of Closing, enter into any new employment contracts or
agreements or hire any new employees whose employment is not terminable on or
prior to Closing, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser, not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The Purchaser will not be obligated to
give or pay any amount to any employee of the Seller or the Seller's managing
agent unless the Purchaser elects to hire that employee, and except for amounts
to be paid pursuant to Section 6.5.  The Purchaser shall not have any liability
under any pension or profit sharing plan that the Seller or its managing agent
may have established with respect to the Property or their or its employees.

         3.11    Financial Information.  To Manager's knowledge, all of the
Seller's financial information, including, without limitation, all books and
records and financial statements ("Financial Information") delivered to
Purchaser by Seller, is correct and complete in all material respects and
presents accurately the results of the operations of the Property for the
periods indicated.

         3.12    Operation of Property.  The Seller covenants, that between the
date hereof and the date of Closing, it will (a) operate the Property only in
the usual, regular and ordinary





                                       11
<PAGE>   17

manner consistent with the Seller's prior practice (except that Seller will not
be required to make any capital expenditures with the exception of expenditures
for routine monthly maintenance items), and (b) maintain its books of account
and records in the usual, regular and ordinary manner, on a basis consistent
with the basis used in keeping its books in prior years.  The Seller covenants
it shall continue to take guest room reservations and to book functions and
meetings and otherwise to promote the business of the Property in generally the
same manner as the Seller did prior to the execution of this Agreement.  Seller
covenants all advance room bookings and reservations and all meetings and
function bookings shall continue to be booked at rates, prices and charges
heretofore customarily charged by the Seller for such purposes.  Seller agrees
not to lower the published rates prior to Closing.  Except as otherwise
permitted hereby, from the date hereof until Closing, the Seller covenants it
shall not take any action or fail to take action the result of which (i) would
have a material adverse effect on the Property or the Purchaser's ability to
continue the operation thereof after the date of Closing in substantially the
same manner as presently conducted, or (ii) would cause any of the
representations and warranties contained in this Article III to be untrue as of
Closing.  Seller covenants it shall deliver to the Purchaser daily reports (on
a weekly basis) showing the income and monthly reports showing expenses of the
Hotel and all departments thereof, together with such periodic information with
respect to room reservations and other bookings, as the Seller customarily
keeps internally for its own use.

         3.13    Personal Property.  All of the Tangible Personal Property (to
the extent assignable), Intangible Personal Property (to the extent assignable)
and Inventory being conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser or to the
Purchaser's managing agent, lessee or designee, are free and clear of all
liens, leases and other encumbrances and will be so on the date of Closing and
the Seller has good, merchantable title thereto and, to the extent assignable,
the right to convey same in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

         3.14    Bankruptcy.  No Act of Bankruptcy has occurred with respect to
the Seller or any of the partners of the Seller.

         3.15    Zoning.  To Manager's knowledge, the current use and occupancy
of the Property for hotel and restaurant purposes are permitted as a matter of
right as a principal use under all laws applicable thereto without the
necessity of any special use permit, special exception or other special permit,
permission or consent.

         3.16    Historical Districts.  To Manager's knowledge, neither the
Property, nor any portion thereof, is (a) listed, or eligible to be listed, in
any national, state or local register of historic places or areas, or (b)
located within any designated district or area in which the permitted uses of
land located therein are restricted by regulations, rules or laws other than
those specified under local zoning ordinances.





                                       12
<PAGE>   18

         3.17    Brokerage Commission.   Except for the Broker, the Seller has
not engaged the services of, nor is it or will it become liable to, any real
estate agent, broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or
finder's fee, commission or other amount with respect to the transactions
described herein.

         3.18    Hazardous Substances.  Except to the extent disclosed in the
report given by Seller to Purchaser prepared by Wright Lab Services, Inc. and
dated October 21, 1987, Manager has no knowledge of (a) the presence of any
"Hazardous Substances" (as defined below) on the Property, or any portion
thereof, or, (b) of any spills, releases, discharges, or disposal of Hazardous
Substances that have occurred or are presently occurring on or onto the
Property, or any portion thereof, or (c) of the presence of any PCB
transformers used, or stored on, the Property, or any portion thereof, and (d)
any failure of the Property to comply with any applicable local, state and
federal environmental laws, regulations, ordinances and administrative and
judicial orders relating to the generation, recycling, reuse, sale, storage,
handling, transport and disposal of any Hazardous Substances (as used herein,
"Hazardous Substances" shall mean any substance or material (excluding those
used in connection with the operation of the Property in accordance with
applicable laws and trace amounts thereof generated in the operation of the
Property, such as, without limitation, petroleum waste products on surface
parking lots and driveways) whose presence, nature, quantity or intensity of
existence, use, manufacture, disposal, transportation, spill, release or
effect, either by itself or in combination with other materials is either:  (1)
potentially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, the environment
or the Property, (2) regulated, monitored or defined as a hazardous or toxic
substance or waste by any Environmental Authority, or (3) a basis for liability
of the owner of the Property to any Environmental Authority or third party, and
Hazardous Substances shall include, but not be limited to, hydrocarbons,
petroleum, gasoline, crude oil, or any products, by-products or components
thereof, and asbestos).

         3.19    Independent Audit.  Seller covenants it shall provide access
to Purchaser's representatives, to all financial and other information relating
to the Property which would be sufficient to enable them to prepare audited
financial statements for the period from May 1, 1994 to June 1, 1996 in
conformity with Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") and to enable them to prepare a registration statement, report or
disclosure statement for filing with the Commission.  Seller covenants it shall
also provide to Purchaser's representatives a signed representative letter in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

         3.20    Noncompetition.  The Seller shall not construct a limited
service, extended stay hotel in any area located within three miles of any
point on the perimeter of the Property within five years of the date hereof.
The provisions of this Section 3.20 shall apply solely to BA-Harrisburg
Associates and shall not apply to any of its successors, assigns, affiliates,
partners, employees, or other representatives.





                                       13

         3.21 Insurance.  Seller covenants that between the date of this
Agreement and consummation of Closing, Seller shall maintain the level of
insurance coverage it currently maintains for the Property.

Each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Article
III and its various subparagraphs are intended for the benefit of the Purchaser
and may be waived in whole or in part, by the Purchaser, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Purchaser.  Each of the representations and
warranties of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11,
3.13, 3.14, 3.15, 3.16, and 3.17 of this Article III shall survive the closing
of the transactions contemplated hereby for the earlier to occur of one (1)
year after the Closing Date or a sale assignment or other transfer of the
Property by Purchaser (unless Purchaser makes a claim by notice in writing to
Seller in connection with the untruth or inaccuracy of such representation or
warranty within such one (1) year period, in which event the representation or
warranty that is the subject of such claim shall survive until such claim is
finally resolved) except to the extent that Seller gives Purchaser written
notice prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or
warranty, or Purchaser otherwise obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing of
the untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty, and Purchaser
nevertheless elects to close this transaction (in which event the same shall
not survive).  The representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.18
shall survive the Closing for the earlier to occur of two (2) years after the
Closing Date or a sale, assignment or other transfer of the Property by
Purchaser and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.20
shall survive the Closing for the earlier to occur of five (5) years after the
Closing Date or a sale, assignment or other transfer of the Property by
Purchaser.  Unless this Agreement provides that they shall survive Closing, no
warranty, representation or covenant shall survive Closing and shall be deemed
merged into the deed of conveyance and other instruments of transfer.  Except
as provided above, no investigation, audit, inspection, review or the like
conducted by or on behalf of the Purchaser shall be deemed to terminate the
effect of any such representations, warranties and covenants, it being
understood that the Purchaser has the right to rely thereon and that each such
representation, warranty and covenant constitutes a material inducement to the
Purchaser to execute this Agreement and to close the transaction contemplated
hereby and to pay the Purchase Price to the Seller.  Notwithstanding anything
in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser for
any loss Purchaser may suffer by reason of a breach or any warranties, except
to the extent (and only in excess of such loss) exceeds $25,000, subject
nevertheless to the limitations of Section 8.3.

         To induce the Seller to enter into this Agreement and to sell the

and covenants with respect to the Property, upon each of which the Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that the Seller is entitled to rely and has relied:

         4.1     Organization and Power.  The Purchaser is a limited
partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Virginia, and has all partnership powers and all
governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to carry on its
business as now conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under
this Agreement and any document or instrument required to be executed and
delivered on behalf of the Purchaser hereunder.

         4.2     Authorization and Execution.  Subject to Section 5.1(e), this
Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the
Purchaser, has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser, constitutes
the valid and binding agreement of the Purchaser and is enforceable against the
Purchaser.

         4.3     Noncontravention.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the performance by the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder do
not and will not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provisions of
applicable law or regulation, the Purchaser's partnership agreement or any
agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon
the Purchaser or result in the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on any
asset of the Purchaser.

         4.4     Litigation.  There is no action, suit or proceeding, pending
or known to be threatened, against or affecting the Purchaser in any court or
before any arbitrator or before any Governmental Body which (a) in any manner
raises any question affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement
or any other agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by
which it is bound and that is to be used in connection with, or is contemplated
by, this Agreement, (b) could materially and adversely affect the business,
financial position or results of operations of the Purchaser, (c) could
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to perform its
obligations hereunder, or under any document to be delivered pursuant hereto,
(d) could create a lien on the Property, any part thereof or any interest

interest therein or the use, operation, condition or occupancy thereof.

<PAGE>   21

         4.6     Brokerage Commission.  The Purchaser has not engaged the
services of, nor is it or will it become liable to, any real estate agent,
broker, finder or any other person or entity for any brokerage or finder's fee,
commission or other amount with respect to the transaction described herein.

         Each of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in
this Article IV and its various subparagraphs are intended for the benefit of
Seller and may be waived in whole or in part, by the Seller, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by the Seller.  Each of said representations and
warranties of this Article IV shall survive the closing of the transactions
contemplated hereby for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date (unless
Seller makes a claim by notice in writing to Purchaser in connection with the
untruth or inaccuracy of such representation or warranty within such one (1)
year period, in which event the representation or warranty that is the subject
of such claim shall survive until such claim is finally resolved) except to the
extent that Purchaser gives Seller written notice prior to Closing of the
untruth or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty, or Seller otherwise
obtains actual knowledge prior to Closing of the untruth or inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty, and Seller nevertheless elects to close this
transaction.  No investigation, audit, inspection, review or the like conducted
by or on behalf of the Seller shall be deemed to terminate the effect of any
such representations, warranties and covenants, it being understood that Seller
has the right to rely thereon and that each such representation, warranty and
covenant constitutes a material inducement to the Seller to execute this
Agreement and complete Closing.  Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to
the contrary, Purchaser shall not be liable to Seller for any loss Seller may
suffer by reason of a breach of any warranties except to the extent (and only
in excess of) such loss exceeds $25,000 subject nevertheless to the limitations
of Section 8.4.


                                   ARTICLE V
                      CONDITIONS AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

         The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall survive the Closing of the
transaction contemplated hereby for a period of one (1) year (or a shorter
period if elsewhere in this Agreement so provided) after the Closing Date
(unless Purchaser or Seller makes a claim by notice in writing to the other
party in connection with any such representation, warranty, covenant or

breach of a warranty or covenant by the Seller, or a failure by the Seller to
perform its obligations hereunder, the Purchaser shall retain all remedies
accruing as a result thereof including but not limited to the right to specific
performance of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, Seller's liability under this Agreement shall be limited to an
amount equal to the amount of the Deposit.

         8.4     Termination by Seller.  If, prior to Closing, the Purchaser
defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (including
its obligation to purchase the Property), and the Purchaser fails to cure any
such default within ten business days after notice thereof from the Seller,
then the Seller's sole remedy for such default shall be either (a) to waive
such default and proceed to consummate Closing, or (b) to terminate this
Agreement and retain the Deposit.  Notwithstanding any termination hereof, the
parties shall nevertheless remain liable under Sections 2.3(c), 3.17 and 4.6.
The Seller and the Purchaser agree that, in the event of such a default, the
damages that the Seller would sustain as a result thereof would be difficult if
not impossible to ascertain.  Therefore, the Seller and the Purchaser agree
that, the Seller shall retain the Deposit as full and complete liquidated
damages and as the Seller's sole remedy.
