ARTICLE III
PRIORITIES FOR
DISTRIBUTION OF AGGREGATE GROSS REVENUES

 

3.01.                      Priorities for Distribution of Aggregate Gross Revenues .  Aggregate Gross Revenues shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

 

A.                                     First, to pay all Aggregate Deductions (excluding the Aggregate Base Management Fee, the Aggregate Reservation Fee and the Aggregate System Fee);

 

B.                                     Second, to Manager, an amount equal to the Aggregate Base Management Fee, the Aggregate Reservation Fee and the Aggregate System Fee;

 

C.                                     Third, to Owners, an amount equal to Aggregate Owner’s Priority;

 

D.                                     Fourth, pari passu , to (i) Owners, in an amount necessary to reimburse Owners for all Aggregate Owner Advances which have not yet been repaid pursuant to this Section 3.01, and (ii) to Manager, in an amount necessary to reimburse Manager for all Aggregate Additional Manager Advances which have not yet been repaid pursuant to this Section 3.01.  If at any time the amounts available for distribution to Owners and Manager pursuant to this Section 3.01 are insufficient (a) to repay all outstanding Aggregate Owner Advances, and (b) all outstanding Aggregate Additional Manager Advances, then Owner and Manager shall be paid from such amounts the amount obtained by multiplying a number equal to the amount of the funds available for distribution by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of all outstanding Aggregate Owner Advances, or all outstanding Aggregate Additional Manager Advances, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the sum of all outstanding Aggregate Owner Advances plus the sum of all outstanding Aggregate Additional Manager Advances;

 

E.                                      Fifth, to Manager, an amount equal to the Aggregate Incentive Management Fee;

 

F.                                       Finally, to Owners, the Aggregate Owner’s Residual Payment.

 

3.02.                      Timing of Payments .  Payment of the Aggregate Deductions, excluding the Aggregate Base Management Fee, the Aggregate Reservation Fee and the Aggregate System Fee, shall be made in the ordinary course of business.  The Aggregate Base Management Fee, the Aggregate Reservation Fee and the Aggregate System Fee shall be paid on the last Business Day of each calendar month, in arrears, based upon the prior month’s Aggregate Gross Revenues or Aggregate Gross Room Revenues, as the case may be, as reflected in the Aggregate Monthly Statement for such prior month.  The Aggregate Owner’s Priority shall be paid on the last Business Day of each calendar month, in arrears, in equal monthly installments, based upon Aggregate Invested Capital most recently reported to Manager by Owners.  If any installment of the Aggregate Base Management Fee, the Aggregate Reservation Fee, the Aggregate System Fee or the Aggregate Owner Priority is not paid when due, it shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate. The Aggregate Incentive Fee and Aggregate Owner’s Residual Payment shall be paid on the last Business Day of the calendar month following the calendar quarter to which such Aggregate Incentive Fee and/or Aggregate Owner’s Residual Payment relates, in arrears, based upon the year-to-date Aggregate Operating Profit as reflected in the Aggregate Monthly Statement for the last calendar month of such calendar quarter and shall be adjusted, after the first calendar quarter, to reflect distributions for prior calendar quarters.  Additional adjustments to all payments will be made on an annual basis based upon the Aggregate Annual Operating Statement for the Year and any audit conducted pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Management Agreements.

 

If the portion of Aggregate Gross Revenues to be distributed to Manager or Owner pursuant to Section 3.01 is insufficient to pay amounts then due in full, any amounts left unpaid shall be paid from and to the extent of Aggregate Gross Revenues available therefor at the time distributions are made in successive calendar months until such amounts are paid in full, together with interest thereon, if applicable, and such payments shall be made from such available Aggregate Gross Revenues in the same order of priority as other payments made on account of such items in successive calendar months.

 

Calculations and payments of the fees and other payments in Section 3.01 and distributions of Aggregate Gross Revenues within a Year shall be accounted for cumulatively within a Year, but shall not be cumulative from

 

3

 

one Year to the next.  Calculations and payments of Aggregate Reimbursable Advances shall be accounted for cumulatively within a Year, and shall be cumulative from one Year to the next.

 

The Aggregate Owner’s Priority and Aggregate Owner’s Residual Payment shall be allocated among Owners as the Owners shall determine in their sole discretion and Manager shall have no responsibility or liability in connection therewith.

 

3.03.                      Relationship with Management Agreements .  For as long as this Agreement is in effect with respect to a Hotel, the provisions of Section 3.01 and 3.02 shall supersede Sections 3.02 and 3.03 of the Management Agreement then in effect with the applicable Hotel.

 

ARTICLE IV
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Manager shall prepare and deliver the following financial statements to the Owners:

 

(a)                                  Within twenty (20) days after the close of each calendar month, Manager shall deliver an accounting to Owner showing Aggregate Gross Revenues, Aggregate Gross Room Revenues, occupancy percentage and average daily rate, Aggregate Deductions, Aggregate Operating Profit, and applications and distributions thereof for the preceding calendar month and year-to-date (“Aggregate Monthly Statement”).

 

(b)                                  Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Year, Manager shall deliver to Owner and Landlord a statement (the “Aggregate Annual Operating Statement”) in reasonable detail summarizing the operations of the Hotels for the immediately preceding Year and an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the totals of Aggregate Gross Revenues, Aggregate Deductions, and the calculation of the Aggregate Incentive Management Fee and Aggregate Owner’s Residual Payment for the preceding Year and certifying that such Aggregate Annual Operating Statement is true and correct.  Manager and Owner shall, within ten (10) Business Days after Owner’s receipt of such statement, make any adjustments, by cash payment, in the amounts paid or retained for such Year as are required because of variances between the Aggregate Monthly Statements and the Aggregate Annual Operating Statement.  Any payments shall be made together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date such amounts were due or paid, as the case may be, until paid or repaid.  The Aggregate Annual Operating Statement shall be controlling over the Aggregate Monthly Statements and shall be final, subject to adjustments required as a result of an audit requested by Owner or Landlord pursuant to Section 4.02.B of the Management Agreements.

 

(c)                                   Manager shall also prepare and deliver such other statements or reports as any Owner may, from time to time, reasonably request.

 

The financial statements delivered pursuant to this Article IV are in addition to any financial statements required to be prepared and delivered pursuant to the Management Agreements.

 

ARTICLE V
NON-ECONOMIC HOTELS

 

5.01.                      Non-Economic Hotels .  If the Gross Revenues of any Hotel are insufficient to pay the Owner’s Priority for such Hotel in full during any two (2) out of four (4) consecutive Years, each of Manager and the relevant Owner shall, upon thirty (30) days notice to the other, be entitled to designate such Hotel a “Non-Economic Hotel.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager and Owners shall not be entitled to designate Hotels for which the Invested Capital in the aggregate would exceed twenty percent (20%) of Aggregate Invested Capital and further provided for purposes of this Section 5.01 only, Aggregate Invested Capital shall be determined without giving effect to the termination of the Management Agreement of a Non-Economic Hotel and without reduction for proceeds from the sale, or deemed sale, of any Non-Economic Hotel.

 

The party designating a Hotel as a Non-Economic Hotel (“Marketing Party”) shall market such Non-Economic Hotel for sale and any costs incurred by the Marketing Party or any other Person in connection with such marketing activities and the sale of such Hotel shall be paid out of the net proceeds of such sale.  The relevant Owner, Landlord and Manager, as the case may be, shall cooperate with the Marketing Party in compiling any

 

4

 

relevant information, preparing marketing materials and otherwise in connection with the sale of a Non-Economic Hotel.

 

5.02.                      Sale Process .  If a Non-Economic Hotel is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.01 and the Marketing Party receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of the relevant Owner and relevant Landlord, the Marketing Party shall give the relevant Owner, or the Manager, as the case may be (the “Non-Marketing Party”), prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by the non-Marketing Party.  If Manager is the Non-Marketing Party, Manager shall have a right of first refusal to purchase such Non-Economic Hotel on the terms of the offer by notice given to the Marketing Party within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from the Marketing Party.  If an Owner is the Non-Marketing Party, such Owner, on behalf of the relevant Landlord, may reject the offer by notice given to the Marketing Party within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from the Marketing Party, in which event the Non-Economic Hotel shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant Landlord on the date, at the price and on the other terms contained in the offer.  If a Non-Economic Hotel is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Landlord, in each case pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Hotel; (ii) the Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant Landlord, relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated, by the relevant Owner, relevant Landlord and/or Manager).  If the reduction of Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Hotel sold or deemed sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Hotels.

 

ARTICLE VI
ACCOUNTS

 

All Working Capital and all Gross Revenues of each of the Hotels may be pooled and deposited in one or more bank accounts in the name(s) of Owners designated by Manager, which accounts may, except as required by any Mortgage and related loan documentation or applicable law, be commingled accounts containing other funds owned by or managed by Manager.  Manager shall be authorized to access the accounts without the approval of Owners, subject to any limitation on the maximum amount of any check, if any, established between Manager and Owners as part of the Annual Operating Projections.  One or more Owners shall be a signatory on all accounts maintained with respect to the Hotel, and Owners shall have the right to require that one or more Owner’s signature be required on all checks/withdrawals after the occurrence of an Event of Default by Manager.  The Owners shall provide such instructions to the applicable bank(s) as are necessary to permit Manager to implement the Manager’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  The failure of any Owner to provide such instructions shall relieve Manager of its obligations hereunder until such time as such failure is cured.

 

ARTICLE VII
ADDITION AND REMOVAL OF HOTELS

 

7.01.                      Addition of Hotels .  At any time and from time to time, Manager and any Owner or any Affiliate of an Owner (an “Additional Owner”) which enters into a management agreement with Manager for the operation of an additional Hotel (an “Additional Hotel”), the Additional Owner may become a party to this Agreement by signing an accession agreement confirming the applicability of this Agreement to such Additional Hotel.  If an Additional Hotel is made subject to this Agreement other than on the first day of a calendar month, the parties shall include such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Deductions (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to the Additional Hotel for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Deductions (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the Additional Hotel became subject to this Agreement and shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.  Additionally, any amounts held as Working Capital for the Additional Hotel or to fund capital expenditures, if any, shall be held by Manager under this Agreement.

 

7.02.                      Removal of Hotels .  From and after the date of termination of any Management Agreement, the Hotel managed thereunder shall no longer be subject to this Agreement.  If the termination occurs on a day other

 

5

 

than the last day of a calendar month, the parties shall exclude such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Deduction (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to such Hotel for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Deductions (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the termination occurred.  Additionally, the relevant Owner and Manager, both acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to the portion of the Aggregate Working Capital and Aggregate Gross Revenues allocable to the Hotel being removed from this Agreement and the amount of the Aggregate Working Capital, Aggregate Gross Revenues so allocated and any amounts held to fund capital expenditures, shall be remitted to the relevant Owner and the relevant Owner and Manager shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.
