     1.6 Earnest Money. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser is depositing with First American Title Insurance Company (the "Title Company"), having its office at 1051 East Cary Street, Suite 1111, Richmond, Virginia 23219, Attention: James DeBoer, the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the "First Deposit") in good funds, either by certified bank or cashier's check or by federal wire transfer.

Seller and Purchaser agree to execute such additional escrow instructions as Title Company may reasonably require and which are not inconsistent with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any supplementary escrow instructions, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

ARTICLE II

TITLE AND SURVEY

     2.1 Title Examination; Commitment for Title Insurance. Seller has obtained and delivered, or shall obtain and deliver, to Purchaser from the Title Company, an ALTA title insurance report (the "Title Commitment") covering the Property. Purchaser shall have until the date (the "Title Exam Deadline") which is 10 days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period to review the Title Commitment and at Closing obtain from the Title Company an owner's policy of title insurance in the full amount of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.4.

     2.2 Survey. During the Inspection Period, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser and the Title Company, Seller's existing ALTA survey of the Property (the "Survey"). Purchaser may, at its sole cost and expense, update and recertify the Survey.

     2.3 Title Objections; Cure of Title Objections. Purchaser shall have until ten (10) days prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period to notify Seller, in writing, of such objections as Purchaser may have to anything contained in the Title Commitment or the Survey. Any item contained in the Title Commitment or any matter shown on the Survey to which Purchaser does not object prior to the Title Exam Deadline shall be deemed a Permitted Exception. In the event Purchaser shall notify Seller of objections to title or to matters shown on the Survey prior to the Title Exam Deadline, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such objections. Within ten (10) days after receipt of Purchaser's notice of objections, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing whether Seller elects to attempt to cure such objections. If Seller elects to attempt to cure, and provided that Purchaser shall not have terminated this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.2, Seller shall have until the date of Closing to attempt to remove, satisfy or cure the same and for this purpose Seller shall be entitled to a reasonable adjournment of the Closing if additional time is required, but in no event shall the adjournment exceed sixty (60) days after the date for Closing set forth in Section 4.1. If Seller elects not to cure any objections specified in Purchaser's notice, or if Seller is unable to effect a cure prior to the Closing (or any date to which the Closing has been adjourned), Purchaser shall have the following options: (i) to accept a conveyance of the Property subject to the Permitted Exceptions, specifically including any matter objected to by Purchaser which Seller is unwilling or unable to cure, and without reduction of the Purchase Price; or (ii) to terminate this Agreement by sending written notice thereof to Seller, and upon delivery of such notice of termination, this Agreement shall terminate and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights, obligations or liabilities hereunder except to the extent that any right, obligation or liability set forth herein expressly survives termination of this Agreement. If Seller notifies Purchaser that Seller does not intend to attempt to cure any title objection; or if, having commenced attempts to cure any objection, Seller later notifies Purchaser that Seller will be unable to effect a cure thereof; Purchaser shall, within five (5) days after such notice has been given, notify Seller in writing whether Purchaser shall elect to accept the conveyance under clause (i) or to terminate this Agreement under clause (ii) of this Section 2.3. If any of Purchaser's objections consist of delinquent taxes, mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, construction or mechanic's liens, tax liens or other liens or charges in a fixed sum or capable of computation as a fixed sum, then, to that extent, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall be obligated to pay and discharge (or bond against in a manner

sufficient to cause the Title Company to insure over such objections) any such Purchaser's objections at Closing.

     2.4 Conveyance of Title. At Closing, Seller shall convey and transfer to Purchaser such title to the Property as will enable the Title Company to issue to Purchaser, at Purchaser's expense, an ALTA owner's policy of title insurance (the "Title Policy") covering the Property, in the full amount of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Property shall be conveyed subject only to the following matters, which shall be deemed to be Permitted Exceptions:

          (a) the rights of tenants, as tenant only, under the Leases;

          (b) the lien of all ad valorem real estate taxes and assessments not yet due and payable as of the date of Closing, subject to adjustment as herein provided;

          (c) local, state and federal laws, ordinances or governmental regulations, including but not limited to, building and zoning laws, ordinances and regulations, now or hereafter in effect relating to the Property; and

          (d) items appearing of record or shown on the Survey, general and specific plans and planned development permits, and, in either case, not objected to by Purchaser or waived or deemed waived by Purchaser in accordance with Sections 2.3 or 2.5.

     2.5 Pre-Closing "Gap" Title Defects. Whether or not Purchaser shall have furnished to Seller any notice of title objections pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Agreement, Purchaser may, at or prior to Closing, notify Seller in writing of any objections to title first raised by the Title Company or the Surveyor between (a) the date of Purchaser's receipt of the Title Commitment and (b) the date on which the transaction contemplated herein is scheduled to close. With respect to any objections to title set forth in such notice, Seller shall have the same option to cure and Purchaser shall have the same option to accept title subject to such matters or to terminate this Agreement as those which apply to any notice of objections made by Purchaser before the expiration of the Inspection Period. If Seller elects to attempt to cure any such matters, the date for Closing shall be automatically extended by a reasonable additional time to effect such a cure, but in no event shall the extension exceed sixty (60) days after the date for Closing set forth in Section 4.1. Seller shall not, after the Effective Date, subject the Property to or permit or suffer to exist any liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements or other title matters or seek any zoning changes without Purchaser's prior written consent; provided, however, Seller may continue the Renovation Work (as defined below), subject to Seller's disposition of any construction or mechanics' lien arising from the work being performed on the Property during this period in the manner provided for in Section 2.3 above.

ARTICLE III

Purchaser shall have the right to make a physical inspection of the Property and to examine at such place or places at the Property designated by Seller, or elsewhere as the same may be located, any operating files maintained by Seller or Manager in connection with the operations, current maintenance and management of the Property, including, without limitation, the Management Agreement, the Leases, lease files, Operating Agreements, insurance policies, bills, invoices, receipts and other general records relating to the income and expenses of the Property, correspondence, surveys, plans and specifications, warranties for services and materials provided to the Property, environmental audits and similar materials, but excluding materials not directly related to the operations, current maintenance or management of the Property such as, without limitation, Seller's internal memoranda, financial projections, budgets, appraisals, accounting and tax records and similar proprietary, elective or confidential information. Purchaser understands and agrees that any on-site inspections of the Property shall be conducted upon at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior written notice to Seller and in the presence of Seller or its representative. Such physical inspection shall not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Property by Seller or its tenants or Hotel guests nor shall Purchaser's inspection damage the Property in any respect. Such physical inspection shall not be invasive in any respect (unless Purchaser obtains Seller's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld), and in any event shall be conducted in accordance with standards customarily employed in the industry and in compliance with all governmental laws, rules and regulations. Following each entry by Purchaser with respect to inspections or tests on the Property, Purchaser shall restore the Property to a condition which is as near to its original condition as existed prior to any such inspections or tests. Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser in its due diligence but shall not be obligated to incur any liability or expense in connection therewith. Purchaser shall not contact any tenants or guests of the Property without obtaining Seller's prior written consent and shall not disrupt Seller's or any tenant's activities on the Property. Purchaser agrees to indemnify against and hold Seller harmless from any claim for liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred) damages or injuries arising out of or resulting from the inspection of the Property by Purchaser or its agents, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such obligation to indemnify and hold harmless Seller shall survive Closing or any termination of this Agreement. All inspections shall occur at reasonable times agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser.

     3.2 Right of Termination. In the event Purchaser determines (such determination to be made in Purchaser's sole discretion) that the Property is not suitable for its purposes, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period. If Purchaser gives such notice of termination within the Inspection Period, this Agreement shall terminate and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to give Seller a notice of termination prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period, Purchaser shall no longer have any right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 3.2 and (subject to the terms of this Agreement) shall be bound to proceed to Closing and consummate the transaction contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     3.3 Hotel Management Agreement. The Property is subject to a Project Management Agreement (as amended, the "Hotel Management Agreement") dated as of June 1, 1988, by and between HTUP-Dulles Hotel Associates Limited Partnership, a Virginia limited partnership ("Former Owner"), and Manager, as amended by (a) Subordination, Non-disturbance and Attornment Agreement dated as of July 29, 1988, by and between NCNB National Bank of North Carolina and Manager, (b) letter agreement dated May 12, 1992 from Former Owner to Seller (as to which Manager is a third party beneficiary), (c) letter agreement dated May 12, 1992 from Manager to Seller, and (d) Consent, Assignment and Assumption and Mutual Estoppel Agreement dated February 1, 2001 among Solus Southeast Hotel Portfolio Limited Partnership, a

California limited partnership, Seller and Manager. According to Section 15.2 of the Hotel Management Agreement, "Owner shall not have the right to sell, hypothecate or convey the Hotel or any portion thereof, or assign its interest in this Agreement, without the prior written approval of Hyatt. Hyatt's approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be based on factors, including, among others, the ability of the prospective assignee to fulfill the financial obligations of Owner hereunder". The obligations of Purchaser and Seller to close the sale contemplated hereby shall be conditioned upon receipt of the approval of Manager to the sale contemplated hereby pursuant to an agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Seller and Purchaser (the "Hotel Management Agreement Assignment and Assumption"). If the parties do not receive such approval on or before the Closing Date, then either party may terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser is not assuming any obligations under that certain letter agreement dated November 16, 2004, between Colony Advisors LLC and Manager, as amended by that certain letter agreement dated August 19, 2005 relating to the funding of the $4.6 Million renovation (collectively, as amended, the "Renovation Letter"). Purchaser and Seller shall request (x) a certificate from Manager in accordance with Section 25 of the Hotel Management Agreement in a completed form satisfactory to Purchaser, and (y) a release of Seller for all obligations arising or accruing under the Hotel Management Agreement on or after the Closing Date. The parties shall use reasonable efforts (and, as used herein, "reasonable efforts" shall not require any party to incur any obligation or cost not otherwise contemplated under this Agreement) to obtain such certificate and release. Receipt of such certificate and release shall be a condition to Purchaser's and Seller's obligation to close. If the parties do not receive such certificate or release on or before the Closing Date, then either party may terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.

     3.4 Association Estoppel. The Property is subject to that certain Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions for Dulles Corner by and between Dulles Corner Properties II Limited Partnership ("Dulles II) and Dulles Corner Properties I Limited Partnership (“Dulles I") dated July 10, 1987, as supplemented by the Supplemental Declaration of Protective covenants and Restrictions by and between Sovran Bank, N.A., Dennis Griffith, trustee, Kendal E. Carson, trustee, Real Title Company, Inc., trustee and Pittsburgh National Bank, dated July 17, 1987, amended by an Amendment to Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions for Dulles Corner between Dulles II and Dulles I dated May 10, 1988, as further amended and restated by the Amended and Restated Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions for Dulles Corner between Dulles II and Dulles I dated September 24, 1990 and as further amended by the Amendment No. 1 to Amended and Restated Declaration of Protective Covenants and Restrictions for Dulles Corner by and between Dulles II and Mayfair Joint Venture dated December 31, 1996 (collectively, the "Declaration"). Seller and Purchaser shall endeavor to obtain an estoppel certificate from Dulles Corner Association, Inc. ("DCA"), in form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (the "DCA Estoppel") with respect to the Declaration. Receipt of the DCA Estoppel shall be a condition to Purchaser's and Seller's obligation to close. If the parties do not receive the DCA Estoppel on or before the Closing Date, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.

     3.5 Parking Easement. The Property is subject to a certain Parking Easement Agreement dated as of July 17, 1987 (the "Parking Easement"), by and among HT-Dulles Hotel, Inc., Dulles Corner Properties II Limited Partnership, Sovran Bank, N.A. and Dennis M. Griffith,

trustee, and Kendal E. Carson, trustee, which, to Seller's actual knowledge has not been amended or modified and is in full force and effect. Seller and Purchaser shall endeavor to obtain an estoppel certificate from the other parties to the Parking Easement in form that complies with the terms of the Parking Easement, or if there is no such form, in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (the "Parking Estoppel"). If the parties do not receive the Parking Estoppel on or before the Closing Date, then Purchaser may terminate this Agreement and the Earnest Money shall be returned to Purchaser.

ARTICLE IV

CLOSING

     4.1 Time and Place. The Parties shall conduct an escrow closing (the "Closing") on Friday, October 14, 2005, the date which is twenty-five (25) days after the expiration of the Inspection Period or such later date as the same may be extended to pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.5 (the "Closing Date"). In the event the Closing does not occur on or before the Closing Date, the Title Company shall, unless it is notified by both Seller and Purchaser to the contrary within three (3) days after the Closing Date, return to the depositor thereof items other than the Earnest Money which were deposited thereunder; any such return shall not, however, relieve either party of any liability it may have for its wrongful failure to close. At Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall perform the obligations set forth in, respectively, Section 4.2 and Section 4.3, the performance of which obligations shall be concurrent conditions to the obligations of Seller and Purchaser to close.

     4.2 Seller's Obligations at Closing. Not less than one business day prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver to Title Company:

          (a) a duly executed grant deed in the form of Exhibit H, conveying the Land and Improvements, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions; the warranty of title in the Deed will be only as to claims made by, through or under Seller and not otherwise;

     4.5 Apportionments. The following apportionments shall be made between Seller and Purchaser as of 11:59 P.M. local time at the Property, on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Apportionment Date"). Where applicable, the apportionments shall be made by the Purchaser and Seller pursuant to and as defined in Section 4.17.

          (a) Amounts paid or payable under the Leases, under any new leases executed after the date of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions hereof and under all Operating Agreements. At the Closing, Seller shall either deliver to Purchaser any security deposits actually held by Seller pursuant to the Leases or credit to the account of Purchaser the amount of such security deposits (to the extent such security deposits are not applied against delinquent rentals or otherwise as provided in the Leases). Unpaid and delinquent rent under the Leases collected by Seller and Purchaser after the Closing Date shall be delivered as follows: (a) if Seller hereafter collects any unpaid or delinquent rent for the Property, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser any such rent relating to the date of Closing and any period thereafter within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof, and (b) if Purchaser hereafter collects any unpaid or delinquent rent from the Property, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller any such rent relating to the period prior to the date of Closing within fifteen (15) days after the receipt thereof. Seller and Purchaser agree that (i) all rent received by Seller after the date of Closing shall be applied first to delinquent rentals, if any, in the order of their maturity, and then to current rentals, and (ii) all rent received by Purchaser after the date of Closing shall be applied first to current rentals and then to delinquent rentals, if any, in inverse order of maturity. Purchaser will make a good faith effort after Closing to collect all rents in the usual course of Purchaser's operation of the Property, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect delinquent rents. Purchaser hereby assumes responsibility for the payment of any unpaid leasing commissions and tenant inducement costs with respect to the Property under the Leases from and after the Effective Date. Management fees under the Hotel Management Agreement shall be prorated. With respect to any incentive management fee payable after the Closing Date that relate in whole or in part to a period prior to the Closing (the "Incentive Fee Period"), upon calculation and payment of such incentive fees by Purchaser to Manager, Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the incentive fee so calculated and paid by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of

days in the Incentive Fee Period which are prior to the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Incentive Fee Period.

          (b) Tour agents' and travel agents' commissions with respect to the Hotel.

          (c) General real estate taxes, water or sewer rates and charges (if not metered), personal property taxes, or any other governmental tax or charge levied or assessed against the Property (collectively, the "Taxes"), relating to the Property for the year in which Closing occurs. If the Closing shall occur before the actual Taxes for the year of Closing are known, the apportionment of Taxes shall-be upon the basis of the latest available tax rates and assessed value of the Property, provided that, if the Taxes for the year of Closing are thereafter determined to be more or less than the Taxes for the preceding year (after any appeal of the assessed valuation thereof is concluded), Seller and Purchaser promptly (but no later than the date that is thirty (30) days from and after the date that the final invoices for taxes for the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs are issued by the applicable taxing authority, except in the case of an ongoing tax protest) shall adjust the proration of such Taxes, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall pay to the other any amount required as a result of such adjustment. Further, if Seller undertakes a tax protest with respect to all or any portion of the Taxes for the year in which Closing occurs or any previous year, any refund relating to any previous year shall be the property of Seller, and any refund relating to the year in which Closing occurs shall be prorated as of the Apportionment Date. All Taxes assessed for periods after the date of Closing shall be paid by Purchaser.

          (d) With respect to electricity, telephone, television, cable television, gas, water and sewer services that are metered and other utilities (collectively, the "Utilities"), Seller shall endeavor to have the respective companies providing the Utilities read the meters for the Utilities on or immediately prior to the Apportionment Date. Seller shall be responsible for all charges based on such final meter reading, and Purchaser shall be responsible for all charges thereafter. If such readings are not obtainable, then, until such time as readings are obtained, charges for all Utilities for which readings were not obtained shall be pro rated as of the Apportionment Date based upon the per diem rate obtained by using the last period and bills for such Utilities that are available. Upon the taking of a subsequent actual reading, such apportionment shall be adjusted to reflect the actual per diem rate for the billing period in which the date of Closing falls, and Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly deliver to the other the amount determined to be due upon such adjustment.

          (e) Room charges as to the Hotel for the night commencing on the Apportionment Date and ending on the morning of the date of Closing shall be split equally between the parties. Dinner and bar charges for the evening of the Apportionment Date shall be the property of Seller. Breakfast charges for the morning of the date of Closing shall be the property of Purchaser.

          (f) Seller shall receive full reimbursement from Purchaser at Closing for each of the following items:

     (i) prepaid fees or other charges for transferable licenses, advertising expenses, permits, telephone equipment, telephone rental, or other items, if any,

          to the extent the rights to such prepaid fees or other charges are assigned by Seller to Purchaser at Closing; and

     (ii) transferable deposits with companies providing Utilities, if any, to the extent the rights to such transferable deposits are assigned by Seller to Purchaser at Closing.

          (g) Amounts prepaid or payable under any Operating Agreements.

          (h) Such other items as are customarily provided and adjusted in the sale of a hotel (including, without limitation, promotional items and trade advertising due bills) shall be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser.

          (i) The apportionments as to the Hotel in this Section 4.5 shall be prepared, to the extent applicable, in accordance with the current edition of the Uniform System of Accounts for Hotels of the Hotel Association of New York City, Inc., as adopted by the American Hotel Association of the United States and Canada.

     4.6 Unopened Food and Beverage Inventory. Purchaser shall purchase at Closing the full amount of all of unopened cases of food and beverage inventory located on or used in connection with the Property as of the Apportionment Date (excluding alcoholic beverages, which shall be purchased by Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.8). All such inventory shall be separately paid for by Purchaser at Closing at Seller's cost. During the night of the Apportionment Date, and prior to the time scheduled for the commencement of Closing on the date of Closing, representatives of both Seller and Purchaser shall prepare an inventory of all such unopened food and beverage items, together with a schedule identifying the unit cost of such items, as actually paid by Seller as supported by the Books for the Property.

     4.7 Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable.

          (a) As and when the same are received by Purchaser, Purchaser shall pay Seller the full amount of all accounts receivable outstanding as of the date of Closing owing from any present guests of the Hotel incurred during that guest's present stay, and room charges for all guests of the Hotel for the night of the Apportionment Date shall be the property of Seller as provided in Section 4.5(e). Said accounts receivable are hereinafter referred to as the "Included Accounts Receivable." Purchaser is not purchasing any of the receivables of the Hotel, including, without limitation, the Included Accounts Receivable; provided, however, Purchaser shall receive a credit to the Purchase Price in an amount equal to one-half (1/2) of the room charges referred to in Section 4.5(e) of this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in the collection of such accounts receivable (including, without limitation, the Included Accounts Receivable), and for such purpose, Seller shall be entitled to assign a representative to be at the hotel for a period of ninety (90) days following the Closing to supervise such collections. Purchaser agrees to cause the Hotel's employees to cooperate with Seller's representative in reviewing such accounts receivable, and in answering any inquiries with respect thereto. Purchaser further agrees to promptly remit to Seller any funds received by it in payment of such accounts receivable. With regard to any collection made from any person or entity who is indebted to the Hotel both with respect to accounts receivable accruing prior to the Closing and

to the accounts receivable accruing subsequent to the Closing, such collection shall be applied as designated, but if there is no designation, then any such collections received within ninety (90) days after the Closing shall be applied first to the indebtedness accrued prior to the Closing, but thereafter, any such collections shall be applied first to the payment of any amounts due to Purchaser on accounts accruing subsequent to the Closing.

          (b) Purchaser shall be credited, at Closing, for any accounts payable outstanding on the date of Closing, with respect to the operation of the Hotel prior to Closing, except those accounts payable that are disputed by Seller. Seller shall identify all such disputed accounts payable as provided in Section 4.7(c) and shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser harmless against any liability arising out of any accounts payable dispute(s) so identified by Seller. The accounts payable for which Purchaser is entitled to a credit against the Purchase Price at Closing are hereinafter referred to as the "Assumed Accounts Payable." In consideration of the credit against the Purchase Price, Purchaser agrees to pay all Assumed Accounts Payable as and when due and further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any cost or liability resulting from nonpayment or late payment of any of such Assumed Accounts Payable.

          (c) During the night of the Apportionment Date, and prior to the time scheduled for the commencement of the Closing on the Date of Closing, Seller's representatives shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser or its representatives a schedule detailing all Assumed Accounts Payable incurred prior to the Apportionment Date.

     4.8 House Banks; Reserve. The sale of the Hotel does not include cash, checks and other funds, including till money, house banks, and notes, securities and other evidence of indebtedness held at the Hotel as of the Apportionment Date, nor does it include balances on deposit to the credit of Seller or the Manager, as Seller's agent, with banking institutions (collectively, the "House Banks"), or any other funds, operating accounts or reserves held by Manager on Seller's behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the "Fund for Replacement of and Additions to Furnishings and Equipment," (as defined in the Management Agreement), shall be retained by Manager for the benefit of Purchaser, and Seller shall be credited at the Closing with the amount so retained.

     4.9 Reservation and Other Deposits.

safes. All such removals or verifications on the date of Closing shall be under the supervision of Seller's and Purchaser's respective representatives. All contents that are to remain in the safes shall be recorded. Items belonging to guests who have not responded to such written notice by so removing and verifying their safe contents by the end of the date of Closing shall be recorded in the presence of the respective representatives. Any such contents so verified and recorded and thereafter remaining in the hands of Purchaser shall be the responsibility of Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any liability therefor. Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any liability arising from claims by guests for any loss of contents in the safe not recorded on the date of Closing. On the date of Closing, representatives of Purchaser and Seller shall take an inventory of all baggage, valises and trunks checked or left in the care of Seller. From and after the date of Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for all baggage listed in said inventory, and Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any liability therefor. Seller shall remain liable for any negligence or misfeasance with respect to such baggage which occurred prior to the date of Closing as well as for claimed omissions from said inventory, and Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from and against any liability therefor.

     4.11 Employees. Wages, salaries, employee benefits, vacation and sick pay payable to the employees of Manager and for which the owner of the Property is responsible under the terms of the Hotel Management Agreement shall continue to be accounted for and charged in accordance with Manager's current practices, and shall be prorated as of the Closing Date. The parties acknowledge that all employees of the Hotel are employees of Manager and not of Seller. Purchaser agrees to assume all responsibility for compliance with the Federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) statute and any similar state or local law, statute, ordinance or regulation, shall take whatever measures are necessary to comply with or avoid a violation of WARN or such other laws, and shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any costs, claims or damages resulting from any such violation or failure to comply, such indemnity to survive the Close of Escrow.

          (b) Accounts receivable other than Included Accounts Receivable. Seller shall retain such accounts receivable, and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect same, but Purchaser will not be obligated to institute any lawsuit or other collection procedures to collect any accounts receivables. If any of the same are collected by Purchaser, Purchaser promptly shall pay over to Seller the amount thereof.

     4.13 Settlement of Apportionments. If the computation of the apportionments and adjustments described in this Section 4 shows that a net amount is owed by Seller to Purchaser, such amount shall be credited against the Purchase Price as provided for in Section 1.5. If such computation shows that a net amount is owed by Purchaser to Seller, such amount shall be paid

by wire transfer to Seller by Purchaser on the Closing Date in addition to the payment of the cash portion of the Purchase Price to be made by Purchaser under Section 1.5.

     4.14 Closing Costs.

The obligation to

make the adjustment shall survive the Closing. Any revenue received or expense incurred by Seller or Purchaser with respect to the Property after the date of Closing shall be promptly allocated in the manner described herein and the parties shall promptly pay or reimburse any amount due. This provision shall not merge with the grant deed delivered hereunder but shall survive Closing.

quasi-governmental authority has determined that there are any violations of, or remediation obligations under any, environmental statutes, ordinances or regulations affecting the Property.

          (j) Labor Matters. Neither Seller nor Manager is a party to any union or other collective bargaining agreement with employees employed in connection with the ownership, operation or maintenance of the Property.

          (k) Financial Information. To Seller's knowledge, all of Seller's financial information delivered or made available to Purchaser ("Financial Information") is correct and complete in all material respects and presents accurately the results of the operations of the Property for the periods indicated. Since the date of the last financial statement included in Seller's Financial Information, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or in the operations of the Property.

          (l) No Commitments. No commitments have been made to any Governmental Authority, utility company, school board, church or other religious body, or any homeowner's association or any other organization, group or individual, relating to the Property which would impose an obligation upon Purchaser to make any contribution or dedication of money or land or to construct, install or maintain any improvements of a public or private nature on or off the Property.

     5.2 Knowledge Defined. References to the "knowledge" or "actual knowledge" of Seller shall refer only to the actual knowledge of the Designated Employees (defined below) of Seller and its affiliates, and shall not be construed, by imputation or otherwise, to refer to the knowledge of Seller, or any affiliate of Seller, to Manager, or to any other officer, agent, manager, representative or employee of Seller or any affiliate thereof or to impose upon such Designated Employees any duty to investigate the matter to which such actual knowledge, or the absence thereof, pertains. As used herein, the term "Designated Employees" shall refer to the following persons: David Monahan and Tim Obert.

     5.3 Survival of Seller's Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 5.1, as updated by the certificate of Seller to be delivered to Purchaser at Closing in accordance with Section 4.2(f), shall survive Closing for a period of nine (9) months. No claim for a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller shall be actionable or payable (a) if the breach in question results from or is based on a condition, state of facts or other matter of which Purchaser has notice under the further provisions of this Section 5.3, or which otherwise was known to Purchaser prior to Closing, (b) unless the valid claims for all such breaches collectively aggregate more than Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($500,000), in which event the full amount of such claims shall be actionable, and (c) unless written notice containing a description of the specific nature of such breach shall have been given by Purchaser to Seller prior to the expiration of said nine (9) month period and an action shall have been commenced by Purchaser against Seller within thirty (30) days after the termination of the survival period provided for above in this Section 5.3. Purchaser agrees to first seek recovery under any insurance policies or service contracts prior to seeking recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser if Purchaser's claim is satisfied from such insurance policies or service contracts. As used herein, the term "Cap" shall mean the total aggregate amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000). In

no event shall Seller's aggregate liability to Purchaser for breach of any representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement or the certificate to be delivered by Seller at Closing pursuant to Section 4.2(g) hereof exceed the amount of the Cap. Any written disclosure made to Purchaser by Seller or any other entity prior to the end of the Inspection Period, and any fact or matter which is within the actual knowledge of Purchaser shall constitute notice to Purchaser of the fact or matter so disclosed or actually known, as applicable, and Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived any claim against Seller on account of any inconsistency between such fact or matter and any of the foregoing representations and warranties if Purchaser does not terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Inspection Period. In addition, any written disclosure made to Purchaser by Seller or any other entity or any matter actually known to Purchaser following the expiration of the Inspection Period and prior to the Closing which is materially inconsistent with any of the foregoing representations and warranties shall constitute notice to Purchaser of the matters disclosed, and Seller shall have no further liability on account of any such inconsistencies if Purchaser waives such matter in writing and consummates the transaction contemplated hereby. For the purposes of this Agreement, any disclosure by Seller of any matter made in any of the Schedules or Exhibits to this Agreement shall be deemed a disclosure of such matter in each and every Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement. In the event that, prior to the Closing, Purchaser receives actual notice of any information which indicates that any of the representations and warranties (including any of the matters disclosed in any of the Schedules or Exhibits hereto) are untrue, Purchaser shall promptly advise Seller in writing of such information. Purchaser shall be deemed to have waived the inaccuracy of any such representation and warranty to the extent Purchaser fails to notify Seller of Purchaser's disapproval of such information pursuant to the preceding sentence and thereafter consummates the transactions contemplated hereby. In the event Purchaser waives in writing any representation or warranty, then Seller shall have no liability under this Agreement for such representation or warranty to the extent waived.

     5.4 Covenants of Seller. Seller hereby covenants with Purchaser as follows:

          (a) From the Effective Date hereof until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause Manager to operate and maintain the Property in a manner generally consistent with the manner in which it has been operated and maintained prior to the date hereof.

          (b) Seller shall use reasonable efforts (but without obligation to incur any cost or expense) to obtain and deliver to Purchaser prior to Closing, written estoppel certificates in the form of Exhibit Q attached hereto and made a part hereof (or as otherwise may be specified in any Lease) signed by each of the tenants under any Leases. A signed certificate from a tenant is referred to herein as a "Tenant Estoppel." Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Seller's inability to obtain any Tenant Estoppel shall not constitute a default by Seller hereunder. To the extent that any matters as to which Seller has made a representation or warranty herein are encompassed within any Tenant Estoppel, such representation or warranty shall no longer be effective and Purchaser shall have no rights in connection therewith.

          (c) A copy of any new lease or renewal or modification of any Lease which Seller wishes to execute between the Effective Date and the date of Closing will be submitted to Purchaser for its approval prior to execution by Seller. Purchaser agrees to notify Seller in

writing within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof of either its approval or disapproval, including all tenant inducement costs and leasing commissions to be incurred in connection therewith. In the event Purchaser informs Seller that Purchaser does not approve such new Lease the renewal or modification of any existing Lease, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, Seller shall not enter into such agreement. In the event Purchaser fails to notify Seller in writing of its approval or disapproval within five (5) business days, such failure shall be deemed the approval by Purchaser. At Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for any tenant inducement costs, leasing commissions or other expenses, including legal fees, incurred by Seller pursuant to a new Lease or a renewal or a modification approved (or deemed approved) by Purchaser.

          (d) Seller and Manager shall have the right to make and accept reservations for use of the Hotel's rooms, banquet and restaurant facilities and meeting and convention facilities (and accept cancellations of such Reservations) in the ordinary course of business at Seller's customary rates and charges and Purchaser agrees to honor and assume all such Reservations following Closing.

          (e) Seller shall not enter into any new management agreement or Operating Agreement with respect to the Property nor shall Seller enter into any agreements modifying the Operating Agreements, except (i) those which Manager is permitted to enter into under the terms of the Hotel Management Agreement without the prior consent of Seller, or (ii) any such agreement or modification will not bind Purchaser or the Property after the date of Closing or is subject to termination on not more than thirty (30) days' notice without penalty, or (iii) Seller has obtained Purchaser's prior written consent to such agreement or modification.

          (f) Seller shall not release or modify any warranties and guaranties, if any, except with the prior written consent of Purchaser.

          (g) Seller shall maintain in full force and effect, and not cause or permit a default under (with or without the giving of any required notice or lapse of time), the Management Agreement.

          (h) Seller shall cause to be paid prior to delinquency all ad valorem, occupancy and sales taxes due and payable with respect to the Property or the operation of the Hotel.

     5.5 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller:

          (a) Purchaser has the full right, power and authority to purchase the Property as provided in this Agreement and to carry out Purchaser's obligations hereunder, and all requisite action necessary to authorize Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder have been, or by the Closing will have been, taken. The person signing this Agreement on behalf of Purchaser is authorized to do so. The execution and delivery of, and the performance by Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement do not, and will not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon Purchaser, or

23

result in the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on any asset of Purchaser. Purchaser has not applied for or consented to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, admitted in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, made a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, filed a voluntary petition or commence a voluntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), been adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, failed to controvert in a timely and appropriate manner, or acquiesced in writing to, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case or proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (as now or hereafter in effect), or taken any corporate or partnership action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing.

          (b) There is no action, suit, arbitration, unsatisfied order or judgment, government investigation or proceeding pending, or to Purchaser's knowledge, threatened against Purchaser which, if adversely determined, could individually or in the aggregate materially interfere with the consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

          (c) Purchaser has funds available to it (including cash, other liquid assets and debt available for the within transaction) sufficient to pay the Purchase Price and otherwise fulfill Purchaser's obligations under this Agreement.

          (d) The execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this Agreement will not (i) conflict with, or result in any breach or violation of or default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration) under any note, bond, indenture, lease, license, permit, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which Purchaser is a party or by which it is or may be bound, or (ii) violate any law, order, rule, regulation, judgment, order, decree, writ or injunction applicable to Purchaser.

     5.6 Survival of Purchaser's Representations and Warranties. The representation and warranties of Purchaser set forth in Section 5.5(a) shall survive Closing and shall be a continuing representation and warranty without limitation. All other representations and warranties of Purchaser shall survive Closing for a period of nine (9) months.

     5.7 Covenants of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby covenants with Seller that Purchaser shall, in connection with its investigation of the Property during the Inspection Period and subject to Seller's consent to any invasive testing (not to be unreasonably withheld), inspect the Property for the presence of hazardous substances, and shall furnish to Seller copies of any reports received by Purchaser in connection with any such inspection. Except for any claim Purchaser may have for a breach of the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement, Purchaser hereby assumes full responsibility for such inspections and irrevocably waives any claim against Seller arising from the presence of hazardous substances on the Property. Purchaser shall also furnish to Seller copies of any other reports received by Purchaser relating to any other inspections of the Property conducted on Purchaser's behalf, if any (including, specifically, without limitation, any reports analyzing compliance of the Property with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), 42 U.S.C. ¤12101, et seq., if applicable).

     5.8 Alcoholic Beverage Licenses. Purchaser acknowledges that there are various liquor licenses associated with the operation of the Hotel. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller that it shall commence work and communicate with appropriate governmental agencies, including the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (the "Board"), for the issuance or reissuance of such licenses (the "Reissued Licenses") within five (5) business days after the date hereof, and shall diligently pursue the obtaining of such licenses at Purchaser's sole cost and expense. Purchaser shall not impair any existing licenses or take any action to prevent Seller's licenses from retaining in full force and effect prior to the Closing, nor shall Purchaser take any action that prevents Seller's existing licenses from remaining in effect after closing if such continuation of Seller's licenses is required by law or if necessary, either by law or by business necessity, to remain in effect subsequent to Closing, Seller shall allow its existing licenses to remain in effect until the Reissued Licenses are obtained. Purchaser shall nevertheless diligently proceed to obtain the Reissued Licenses, even if Seller and Purchaser thereby become co-licensees of the Board for a period of time. In that event, if Seller so requests, Purchaser shall fully cooperate and take all reasonably necessary measure to obtain Seller's releases from such licenses. Purchaser shall fully and completely indemnify and defend Seller and hold Seller harmless from any and all liability, cost, damage, claim or expense of any kind which may arise, directly or indirectly, out of the continued existence of Seller's licenses subsequent to Closing. If any of Seller's licenses are required for liquor operations at the Hotel subsequent to Closing, such circumstance in no way creates, or is intended to create, a relationship of agency, partnership or joint venture between Seller and Purchaser for operations at the Hotel, including liquor operations at the Hotel.

          Seller's cooperation with respect to issuance or reissuance of the Reissued Licenses (i) shall be at no material cost or expense to Seller, (ii) shall not expose Seller to any continuing liability with respect to the operation of the Hotel or the sale of alcoholic beverages therefrom after the Closing Date which would not be subject to indemnification from Purchaser, and (iii) shall not obligate Seller to postpone the Closing other than in accordance with the provisions hereof. In no event shall Seller be required to transfer to Purchaser any alcoholic beverage inventory which is located at or held for use in the Hotel unless and until Purchaser has obtained a valid and effective license entitling Purchaser to purchase, store and sell alcoholic beverages at the Hotel. Any such transfer of any alcoholic beverage inventory shall be separately paid for by Purchaser at Closing at Seller's cost.

     5.9 Renovations. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that certain renovation work described in the Renovation Letter (the "Renovation Work") is ongoing. Seller anticipates that the Renovation Work will be completed prior to Closing. In the event that any Renovation Work is not completed prior to Closing (the "Outstanding Renovation Work"), Purchaser shall complete such work with Purchaser receiving a credit at Closing for the estimated amount (the "Estimated Amount"), as agreed by Seller and Purchaser prior to Closing, to complete and pay for the Outstanding Renovation Work. Purchaser shall provide Seller with a copy of all invoices incurred in connection with Purchaser's completion of the Outstanding Renovation Work. In the event that the actual cost to complete the Outstanding Renovation Work is different than the Estimated Amount, Purchaser and Seller settle the difference following Closing pursuant to Section 4.16.

     5.10 Bulk Sale Requirements. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate each with the other to satisfy the requirements of the Virginia Uniform Commercial Code – Bulk Sales requirements, as set forth in the Virginia Uniform Commercial Code Section 8.6 and following.

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULT

     6.1 Default by Purchaser. IF THE SALE IS NOT CONSUMMATED DUE TO ANY DEFAULT BY PURCHASER HEREUNDER, THEN SELLER MAY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND RETAIN THE EARNEST MONEY AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT SELLER's ACTUAL DAMAGES, IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE TO CONSUMMATE THIS SALE DUE TO PURCHASER's DEFAULT, WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPRACTICABLE TO DETERMINE. AFTER NEGOTIATION, THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT, CONSIDERING ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING ON THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE AMOUNT OF THE EARNEST MONEY IS A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT SELLER WOULD INCUR IN SUCH EVENT. BY PLACING THEIR INITIALS BELOW, EACH PARTY SPECIFICALLY CONFIRMS THE ACCURACY OF THE STATEMENTS MADE ABOVE AND THE FACT THAT EACH PARTY WAS REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL WHO EXPLAINED, AT THE TIME THIS AGREEMENT WAS MADE, THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION. THE FOREGOING IS NOT INTENDED TO LIMIT PURCHASER's INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER OTHER SECTIONS HEREOF.

     SELLER:                                                                             PURCHASER:                                                                       

     6.2 Default by Seller. In the event that Seller breaches in any material respect any of its obligations or representations or warranties contained in this Agreement, or fails to consummate this Agreement for any reason other than Purchaser's default or the permitted termination of this Agreement by Seller or Purchaser as herein expressly provided, Purchaser shall be entitled, as its sole remedy, either (a) to receive the return of the Earnest Money, which return shall operate to terminate this Agreement and release Seller from any and all liability hereunder; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to any provision of this Agreement as a result of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Seller, then Seller shall be obligated upon demand to reimburse Purchaser for Purchaser's actual out-of-pocket inspection, financing and other costs related to Purchaser's entering into this Agreement, including, without limitation, Purchaser's attorneys' fees, but not to exceed $100,000, or (b) to enforce specific performance of Seller's obligation to execute the documents required to convey the Property to Purchaser, it being understood and agreed that the remedy of specific performance shall not be available to enforce any other obligation of Seller hereunder. Except as provided above, Purchaser expressly waives its rights to seek damages in the event of Seller's default hereunder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement and receive back the Earnest Money if Purchaser fails to file suit for specific performance against Seller in a court having jurisdiction in the county and state in which the Property is located, on or before thirty (30) days following the date upon which Closing was to have occurred.

     6.3 Liability of Purchaser. Except for obligations expressly assumed or agreed to be assumed by Purchaser hereunder, Purchaser is not assuming any obligations of Seller or any liability for claims arising out of any act, omission or occurrence which occurs, accrues or arises prior to the Closing Date, and Seller hereby indemnifies and holds Purchaser 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 Purchaser as a result of (i) obligations of Seller not expressly assumed or agreed to be assumed by Purchaser hereunder, or (2) acts, omissions or occurrences which occur, accrue or arise prior to the Closing Date. The provisions of this Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby.

In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs.

In the event that Seller elects to perform repairs upon the Property, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to complete such repairs promptly and the date of Closing shall be extended a reasonable time in order to allow for the completion of such repairs. If Seller elects to assign a casualty claim to Purchaser, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the deductible amount under Seller's insurance policy. Upon Closing, full risk of loss with respect to the Property shall pass to Purchaser.

     7.3 Definition of "Major" Loss or Damage.

condemnation which permanently and materially impairs the current use of the Property. If Purchaser does not give notice to Seller of Purchaser's reasons for disapproving an architect within five (5) business days after receipt of notice of the proposed architect, Purchaser shall be deemed to have approved the architect selected by Seller.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

     10.1 Confidentiality. Purchaser and its representatives shall hold in confidence all data and information obtained with respect to Seller or its business, whether obtained before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall not disclose the same to others; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that Purchaser may disclose such data and information to the employees, consultants, accountants and attorneys of Purchaser provided that such persons agree in writing to treat such data and information confidentially. In the event this Agreement is terminated or Purchaser fails to perform hereunder, Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller any statements, documents, schedules, exhibits or other written information obtained from Seller in connection with this Agreement or the transaction contemplated herein. It is understood and agreed that, with respect to any provision of this Agreement which refers to the termination of this Agreement and the return of the Earnest Money to Purchaser, such Earnest Money shall not be returned to Purchaser unless and until Purchaser has fulfilled its obligation to return to Seller the materials described in the preceding sentence. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Purchaser or its agents or representatives of this Section 10.1, Seller shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Purchaser or its agents or representatives from disclosing, in whole or in part, such confidential information. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from pursuing any other available remedy at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach. The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive Closing.

     10.2 Public Disclosure. Prior to Closing, any release to the public of information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set forth in this Agreement will be made only in the form approved by Purchaser and Seller and their respective counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is acknowledged that Purchaser is, or is an affiliate of, a real estate investment trust (the "REIT"), and the REIT has and will seek to sell shares to the general public. Consequently, Purchaser shall have the right, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.2, to disclose any information regarding the transaction contemplated by this Agreement required by law as determined by Purchaser's attorneys to satisfy disclosure and reporting obligations of Purchaser or its affiliates, and in that regard, the parties acknowledge that on or immediately after the Effective Date Purchaser shall file with the United Sates Securities Exchange Commission information regarding the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, provided that, with respect to any such disclosure (a) Purchaser shall not disclose Colony Capital, LLC's role as a sponsor of the Seller, unless such disclosure is required by law, and (b) Purchaser shall not disparage, denigrate or release any adverse information regarding Seller or Colony Capital, LLC. Purchaser shall provide to Seller, for review by Seller's counsel, at least one day prior to filing or release, a copy of any such release or filing. Seller and Purchaser and their representatives are cautioned that United States securities laws restrict the purchase and sale of securities by anyone who possesses non-public information about the issue of such securities. Accordingly, neither Seller or any of its Affiliates nor its representatives may buy or sell any of the securities of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates so long as any of them is in possession of any material non-public information about the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, including information contained in or derived from confidential information.

     10.3 Discharge of Obligations. The acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser shall be deemed to be a full performance and discharge of every representation and warranty made by Seller herein and every agreement and obligation on the part of Seller to be performed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, except those which are herein specifically stated to survive Closing.

     10.4 Assignment. Purchaser may not assign its rights under this Agreement without first obtaining Seller's written approval, which approval may be given or withheld in Seller's sole discretion, except that Purchaser may assign all or any portion of its rights hereunder at Closing to one or more Affiliates of Purchaser without the consent of Seller’ however, any such assignment shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement.
