agreements set forth in this Agreement,the.Underwriter agrees to purchase from the District for offering to

discount of$478,759.39), the aggregate purchase price for the Series 2021 Second-Lien Bonds will be
$14,754,359.42 (which price reflects an original premium of$1,166,539.00 and an Underwriter's discount

days after the"end of the underwriting period"(as defined below),there shall exist any event which,in the
opinion of the Underwriter and counsel to the Underwriter or in the opinion of the District, requires a

material fact, or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements in the Official
Statement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, when it is delivered

the preparation of, a reasonable number of copies of an amendment of or supplement to the Official

material fact, necessary to make the statements in the Official Statement, in light of the circumstances
existing at the time the Official Statement is delivered to a purchaser,not misleading in any material respect.

Underwriter notifies the District in writing prior to the day that any Bonds remain unsold,in which case the
"end of the underwriting period"shall be deemed to be extended for 30 days from the date of the notice.

By 1:00 p.m., Central standard time, on September 9, 2021 or any other time or date as shall be

cause to be delivered the Series 2021 Bonds to the account of the Underwriter in form satisfactory to the

ACTIVE 49445187v9
of DTC for the benefit of the Underwriter. (Delivery and acceptance and payment is the"Closing"). It is
anticipated that CUSIP identification numbers (to be obtained by the Underwriter) will be assigned to the
Series 2021 Bonds, but neither the failure to obtain the numbers, nor any error in these numbers shall
constitute a cause for failure or refusal by the Underwriter to accept delivery of the Series 2021 Bonds in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
5. Representations of the Underwriter.
The Underwriter agrees to make a bona fide public offering of all the Series 2021 Bonds at prices
not in excess of the initial offering prices, or yields not less than the yields, set forth in Exhibit A to this
Agreement. The Underwriter may offer and sell the Series 2021 Bonds to certain dealers(including dealers
depositing the Series 2021 Bonds into investment trusts or mutual funds) and others at prices lower than
the offering prices set forth in the Official Statement. Subsequent to the initial public offering, the
Underwriter reserves the right to change the public offering prices and yields as the Underwriter may deem
necessary in connection with the marketing of the Series 2021 Bonds. The Underwriter also reserves the
right to: (i)over-allot or effect transactions which stabilize or maintain the market price of the Series 2021
Bonds at levels above those that might otherwise prevail in the open market and (ii)discontinue the
stabilizing, if commenced,at any time without prior notice. The Underwriter acknowledges that it received
and reviewed the Continuing Disclosure Agreement.
6. Establishment of Issue Price.
(a) The Underwriter agrees to assist the District in establishing the issue price of the Series
2021 Bonds and shall execute and deliver to the District at Closing an "issue price" or similar certificate,
together with the supporting pricing wires or equivalent communications,substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit B,with such modifications as may be appropriate or necessary,in the reasonable judgment
of the Underwriter, the District and Bond Counsel, to accurately reflect, as applicable, the sales price or
prices or the initial offering price or prices to the public of the Series 2021 Bonds.
(b) Except as otherwise set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, the District will treat the first
price at which 10%of each maturity of each series of the Series 2021 Bonds(the"10%test") is sold to the
public as the issue price of that maturity. At or promptly after the execution of this Agreement, the
Underwriter shall report to the District the price or prices at which the Underwriter has sold to the public
each maturity of each series of Bonds. For purposes of this section, if the Series 2021 Bonds of a series
mature on the same date but have different interest rates,each separate CUSIP number within that maturity
will be treated as a separate maturity of the Series 2021 Bonds.
(c) The Underwriter confirms that it has offered the Series 2021 Bonds to the public on or
before the date of this Agreement at the offering price or prices (the "initial offering price"), or at the
corresponding yield or yields, set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, except as otherwise set forth therein.
Exhibit A also sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement, the maturities, if any, of the Series 2021 Bonds
of a series for which the 10% test has not been satisfied and for which the District and the Underwriter
agrees that(i) the Underwriter will retain unsold Bonds of each maturity of a series for which the 10%test
has not been satisfied and not allocate any such bonds to any other Underwriter and(ii)the restrictions set
forth in the next sentence shall apply, which will allow the District to treat the initial offering price to the
public of each such maturity as of the sale date as the issue price of that maturity (the "hold-the-offering-
price rule"). So long as the hold-the-offering-price rule remains applicable to any maturity of a series of
the Series 2021 Bonds, the Underwriter will neither offer nor sell unsold Bonds of that maturity of such
series to any person at a price that is higher than the initial offering price to the public during the period
starting on the sale date and ending on the earlier of the following:
5
ACTIVE 49445187v9
(1) the close of the fifth(51h)business day after the sale date; or
(2) the date on which the Underwriter has sold at least 10% of that maturity of the
Series 2021 Bonds of such series to the public at a price that is no higher than the
initial offering price to the public.
The Underwriter will advise the District promptly after the close of the fifth(51h)business day after
the sale date whether the Underwriter has sold 10%of that maturity of the Series 2021 Bonds of such series
to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public.
(d) The Underwriter confirms that:
(1) any selling group agreement and any third-party distribution agreement relating to
the initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to the public, together with the related pricing wires,
contains or will contain language obligating each dealer who is a member of the selling group and
each broker-dealer that is a party to such third-party distribution agreement,as applicable:
(A)(i) to report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each
maturity and series allocated to it, whether or not the Closing has occurred, until either all
Bonds of that maturity and series allocated to it have been sold or it is notified by the
Underwriter that the 10%test has been satisfied as to the Series 2021 Bonds of that maturity
and series, provided that, the reporting obligation after the Closing may be at reasonable
periodic intervals or otherwise upon the request of the Underwriter and(ii)to comply with
the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, if and for so long as directed by the
Underwriter.
(B) to promptly notify the Underwriter of any sales of the Series 2021 Bonds
that, to its knowledge, are made to a purchaser who is a related party to an underwriter
participating in the initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to the public(each such term being
defined below), and
(C) to acknowledge that, unless otherwise advised by the dealer or broker-
dealer, the Underwriter shall assume that each order submitted by the dealer or broker-
dealer is a sale to the public.
(ii) any selling group agreement relating to the initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to
the public,together with the related pricing wires,contains or will contain language obligating each
dealer that is a party to a third-party distribution agreement to be employed in connection with the
initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to the public to require each broker-dealer that is a party to
such third-party distribution agreement to (A) report the prices at which it sells to the public the
unsold Bonds of each maturity and series allocated to it, whether or not the Closing has occurred,
until either all Bonds of that maturity allocated to it have been sold or it is notified by the
Underwriter or the dealer that the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Series 2021 Bonds of that
maturity and series, provided that, the reporting obligation after the Closing may be at reasonable
periodic intervals or otherwise upon the request of the Underwriter or the dealer, and (B)comply
with the hold-the-offering-price rule,if applicable,if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter
or the dealer and as set forth in the related pricing wires.
(e) The District acknowledges that, in making the representations set forth in this section, the
Underwriter will rely on(i) in the event a selling group has been created in connection with the initial sale
of the Series 2021 Bonds to the public, the agreement of each dealer who is a member of the selling group
6
ACTIVE 49445987v9
to comply with the requirements for establishing the issue price of the Series 2021 Bonds, including, but
not limited to,its agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule,if applicable to the Series 2021
Bonds, as set forth in a selling group agreement and the related pricing wires, and (ii) in the event that a

Bonds to the public, the agreement of each broker-dealer that is a party to such agreement to comply with
the requirements for establishing the issue price of the Series 2021 Bonds, including,but not limited to, its
agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable to the Series 2021 Bonds, as set
forth in the third-party distribution agreement and the related pricing wires. The District further
acknowledges that the Underwriter shall be solely liable for its failure to comply with its agreement
regarding the hold-the-offering-price rule and that the Underwriter shall not be liable for the failure of any
dealer who is a member of a selling group,or of any broker-dealer that is a party to a third-party distribution
agreement, to comply with its corresponding agreement to comply with the requirements for establishing
the issue price of the Series 2021 Bonds, including, but not limited to, its agreement to comply with the
hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable to the Series 2021 Bonds.
(f) The Underwriter acknowledges that sales of any Bonds to any person that is a related party
to an underwriter participating in the initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to the public (each such term
being used as defined below) shall not constitute sales to the public for purposes of this section. Further,

2021 A (the "Series 2021 First-Lien Bonds"), Second-Lien Hotel Revenue Bonds, Series 2021 B (the

Bonds, Series 2021 C (the "Series 2021 Third-Lien Bonds", and, collectively with the Series 2021 First-
Lien Bonds and Series 2021 Second-Lien Bonds, the"Series 2021 Bonds").
1. Sale of the General Rule Maturities. As of the date of this certificate, for each General
Rule Maturity the first price at which at least 10%of such Maturity of each series of the Bonds was sold to
the Public is the respective price listed in Schedule A hereto.
2. Initial Offering Price of the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities.
(a) The Underwriter offered the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities to the Public for purchase
at the respective initial offering prices listed in Schedule A hereto(the"Initial Offering Prices")on or before
the Sale Date. A copy of the pricing wire or equivalent communication for the Series 2021 Bonds is
attached to this certificate as Schedule B.
(b) As set forth in the Bond Purchase Agreement dated August 25,2021 between the Baytown
Municipal Development District(the"District")and the Underwriter,the Underwriter has agreed in writing
that, (i)the Underwriter would retain the unsold Series 2021 Bonds of each Hold-the-Offerinb Price
Maturity, (ii) for each Maturity of the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities, the Underwriter would neither
offer nor sell any of the unsold Bonds of such Maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the Initial

the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities at a price that is higher than the respective Initial Offering Price for
that Maturity of the Series 2021 Bonds during the Holding Period.
3. Defined Ternrs.
(a) General Rule Maturities means those Maturities of the Series 2021 Bonds listed in
Schedule A hereto as the"General Rule Maturities."
(b) Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities means those Maturities of the Series 2021 Bonds listed
in Schedule A hereto as the"Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities."
(c) Holding Period means, with respect to a Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturity, the period
starting on the Sale Date and ending on the earlier of(i) the close of the fifth business day after the Sale

Offering-Price Maturity to the Public at prices that are no higher than the Initial Offering Price for such
Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturity.
(d) Maturity means Series 2021 Bonds with the same credit and payment terms. Series 2021
Bonds with different maturity dates,or Series 2021 Bonds with the same maturity date but different stated
interest rates, are treated as separate maturities.
(e) Public means any person (including an individual, trust, estate, partnership, association,
company,or corporation)other than the Underwriter or a related party to the Underwriter. The term"related

percent common ownership, directly or indirectly.

Series 2021 Bonds to the Public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a retail distribution
agreement participating in the initial sale of the Series 2021 Bonds to the Public).
4. Weiglited Average Maturity and Yield.
(a) We have been asked by Bond Counsel to calculate the yield of each series of the Series
2021 Bonds using the definition that follows. Generally,"yield"is the discount rate calculated on the basis
of a 360-day year consisting of 12 months of 30 days each and assuming semiannual compounding that,
when used in computing the present value as of the date hereof of all unconditionally payable payments of
principal, interest (including original issue discount), and fees for qualified guarantees on the Series 2021
Bonds, produces an amount equal to the present value, using the same discount rate, of the issue price of
the Series 2021 Bonds. The yield on the Series 2021 Bonds that are"Yield to Call Bonds"is computed by
treating such Series 2021 Bonds as redeemed on the optional redemption date that would produce the lowest
yield on the issue. Yield to Call Bonds are Series 2021 Bonds subject to optional early redemption and
issued at an issue price that exceeds the stated redemption price at maturity by more than one-fourth of one
percent multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price at maturity and the number of complete
B-2
ACTIVE 49445187v9
years to the first optional call date for such Series 2021 Bonds. In accordance with this calculation, the
yield on the Series 2021 First-Lien Bonds is 2.812%, the yield on the Series 2021 Second-Lien Bonds is
3.817%and the yield on the Series 2021 Third-Lien Bonds is 1.829%.
(b) We have been asked by Bond Counsel to calculate the weighted average maturity of each
series of the Series 2021 Bonds in the following manner: divide (a) the sum of the products determined by
taking the Issue Price of each maturity of such series of the Series 2021 Bonds times the number of years
from the date hereof to the date of such maturity (treating the mandatory redemption of the related series
of Series 2021 Bonds as a maturity), by (b) the aggregate issue price of such series of the Series 2021
Bonds. Based on this calculation, the weighted average maturity of the Series 2021 First-Lien Bonds is
19.67 years, the weighted average maturity of the Series 2021 Second-Lien Bonds is 20.25 years and the
weighted average maturity of the Series 2021 Third-Lien Bonds is 17.25 years.
The representations set forth in this certificate are limited to factual matters only. Nothing in this
certificate represents the Underwriters' interpretation of any laws, including specifically Sections 103 and
148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The
undersigned understands that the foregoing information will be relied upon by the District with respect to
certain of the representations set forth in the Non-Arbitrage Certificate and the Tax and Non-Arbitrage
Certificate and with respect to compliance with the federal income tax rules affecting the Series 2021
Bonds, and by Bond Counsel in connection with rendering its opinion that the interest on the Series 2021
Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, the preparation of the Internal
Revenue Service Form 8038-G, and other federal income tax advice that it may give to the District from
time to time relating to the Series 2021 Bonds.

addresses of the last known registered Bondholders of all Bonds held by each of such Bondholders.
At reasonable times and under reasonable regulations established by the Trustee, the list may be
inspected and copied by the District or any Owner of the Bonds or the authorized representative
thereof, provided that the ownership of such Owner and the authority of any such designated
representative shall be evidenced to the satisfaction of the Trustee.
The District and the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Bond shall be
registered in the Register as the absolute owner of such Bond,whether such Bond shall be overdue or
not, for the purpose of receiving payment Debt Service on such Bond and for all other purposes,and
all such payments so made to any such Owner or upon the Owner's order shall be valid and effectual
to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid,and the
District and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(b) Negotiability, Transfer of the Bonds.
(i) So long as any Bonds remain Outstanding, but only at such times when the Bonds are not
administered pursuant to a Book-Entry System, the Trustee shall make all necessary
provisions to permit the exchange, registration or transfer of the Bonds. Bonds shall be
transferable only by notation to that effect inscribed in the Register by the Registered Owner
thereof, in person or by the Registered Owner's attorney duly authorized in writing, upon
surrender thereof together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar
duly executed by the Registered Owner or the Registered Owner's duly authorized attorney.
The Registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange Bonds for a period from the
fifteenth(151h)day of the month next preceding any Debt Service Payment Date of such Bond
through such Debt Service Payment Date nor to transfer or exchange any Bond after the
making of notice calling such Bond or portion thereof for redemption has been given as herein
provided nor during the period of fifteen(15)days next preceding the giving of such notice.
17
(ii) For every such transfer of Bonds, whether temporary or definitive, the District, the Trustee,
and the Registrar may charge a fee sufficient to reimburse it or them for any expense,tax,fee
or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer. In addition,
for every exchange of Bonds, the District, the Trustee, and the Registrar may charge a
reasonable fee to cover the costs of printing Bonds including any Trustee's or Registrar's
charges in connection therewith. The payment of the fees provided in this Paragraph shall be
made by the Registered Owner requesting such exchange or transfer as a condition precedent
to the exercise of the privilege of making such exchange or transfer.
(iii) In all cases in which the privilege of exchanging or transferring Bonds is exercised, the
District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Bonds in accordance with
the provisions of this Indenture. All registered Bonds surrendered in any exchange or transfer
shall forthwith be canceled by the Trustee.
(c) Transfer Restrictions. Transfers of the Bonds(including beneficial ownership interests therein) shall
at all times be subject to any transferability restrictions set forth on any legends affixed to such Bonds.
The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to monitor,inquire,investigate or otherwise determine
whether any transferees of the Bonds qualify under these requirements and shall have no liability with
respect thereto.
(d) Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Bonds. If any Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed,
stolen or lost, the District shall execute, and thereupon the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a
new Bond of like Series, maturity date, principal amount and interest rate as the Bond so mutilated,
lost, stolen or destroyed, provided that the Registered Owner first complies with the following
requirements: (i) in the case of any mutilated Bond,such Bond is first surrendered to the Trustee; (ii)
in the case of any lost,stolen or destroyed Bond,there is first furnished evidence of such loss,theft or
destruction reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (iii) shall furnish such security or indemnity
acceptable by the Trustee and the District to save them harmless; (iv) pays all expenses and charges
in connection therewith,including,but not limited to,printing costs,legal fees,fees of the Trustee and
any tax or other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed; and (v) satisfies any other
reasonable requirements imposed by the Trustee or the District.
Any new Bonds issued pursuant to this Paragraph in substitution for Bonds alleged to be destroyed,
stolen or lost shall constitute original additional contractual obligations on the part of the District,
whether or not the Bonds alleged to be destroyed,stolen or lost be at any time enforceable by anyone,
and shall be equally secured by and entitled to equal and proportionate benefits in the Trust Estate
with all other Bonds issued under this Indenture, to the same extent provided herein. If, after the
delivery of such new Bond,a bona fide purchaser of the original Bond in lieu of which such new Bond
was issued presents for payment or registration such original Bond, the Trustee shall be entitled to
recover such new Bond from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom,
except a bona fide purchaser,and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided
therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the District or the Trustee in
connection therewith.
(e) Cancellation of Bonds;Non presentment. Bonds redeemed,presented and surrendered in accordance
with the terms hereof shall be cancelled on the surrender thereof. If any Bond is not presented for
payment when the principal thereof shall become due, either at maturity, at the date fixed for
redemption thereof,or otherwise, if funds sufficient to pay such Bond shall have been made available
to the Trustee for the benefit of the Registered Owner thereof, all liability of the District to the
Registered Owner thereof for the payment of such Bond shall forthwith cease, terminate, and be
completely discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Trustee to hold such fiind or funds,
without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the Registered Owner,
18
who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such fund or funds for any claim of whatever nature
on his,her or their part under this Indenture or on,or with respect to,said Bonds.
Section 3.06 Payment Provisions.
(a) Medium of Payment. Debt Service on the Bonds shall be payable in any coin or currency of the United
States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private
debts.
(b) Date for Payment. If the date for the payment of Debt Service on any Bond is not a Business Day,the
date for such payment shall be the next succeeding Business Day,and payment on such date shall for
all purposes be deemed to have been made on the due date thereof. If any principal or interest on any
Bond is not paid when due(whether by maturity,or call for redemption or otherwise),then the overdue
installments of principal shall bear interest until paid at the same rate set forth in such Bond;provided,
however,that in no event shall the interest rate borne by any Series of the Bonds exceed the maximum
"net effective interest rate", as defined and calculated on the date of delivery of such Bond, in
accordance with Chapter 1204,Texas Government Code.
(c) Method of Payment. Except as otherwise provided in any arrangements with the Securities
Depository, interest on each Bond shall be paid by the Registrar to each Registered Owner,as shown
in the Register at the close of business on the Record Date, at the address of each such Registered
Owner as such appears in the Register by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account
within the United States designated by such Owner or by such other customary banking arrangements
acceptable to the Registrar and the person to whom interest is to be paid;provided,however,that such
person shall bear all risk and expense of such other customary banking arrangements. Payment of
interest on Bonds at maturity or on a Redemption Date shall be paid upon presentation and surrender
of such Bonds at the Trustee's designated office. Principal of the Bonds shall be payable by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to an account within the United States designated by such
Owner and in accordance with the notice provisions of this Indenture, and no payment of principal
shall be made on any Bond unless and until such Bond is tendered to the Trustee for cancellation.
(d) Unclaimed Payments. Unclaimed payments shall be segregated in a special account and held in trust,
uninvested by the Registrar, for the account of the Registered Owner of the Bonds to which the
unclaimed payments pertain. Subject to Title 6,Texas Property Code,unclaimed payments remaining
unclaimed by the Owners entitled thereto for three (3) years after the applicable payment or
redemption date shall be applied to the next payment or payments on the Bonds thereafter coming due
and,to the extent any such money remains after the retirement of all Outstanding Bonds,shall be paid
to the District to be used for any lawful purpose. Thereafter,neither the District,the Registrar nor any
other person shall be liable or responsible to any Owner of such Bonds for any further payment of
such unclaimed payments or on account of any such Bonds, subject to Title 6,Texas Property Code.
Section 3.07 Book-Entry System. A Book-Entry System with The Depository Trust Company is
hereby authorized for the Bonds. The provisions of this Section shall apply to the Bonds while such Bonds
are maintained under the Book-Entry System with The Depository Trust Company or any other Securities
Depository for the Bonds appointed pursuant to this Section, any other provisions of this Indenture to the
contrary notwithstanding.
(a) Registration of Definitive Bonds with the Securities Depository. Each definitive Series of Bonds shall
be initially executed and delivered in the form of a separate, single, authenticated, fully registered
bond for each separate stated maturity of each Series, each such bond to be in the full
19
principal amount of each Series,with such stated maturity. Upon initial execution,authentication and
delivery,the ownership of such Bonds shall be registered in the Register in the name of the Securities
Depository or its nominee. Upon delivery by the Securities Depository to the Trustee of written notice
to such effect, the Securities Depository may substitute a new nominee or successor nominee, and
subject to the provisions herein with respect to record dates, the term "Cede & Co." in this Indenture
shall refer to such new nominee of the Securities Depository.
The District,in its discretion,at any time upon complying with the rules of such Securities Depository,
may replace any Securities Depository as the depository for the Bonds with another qualified securities
depository or discontinue the maintenance of the Bonds under a Book-Entry System upon 30 days'
notice to the Securities Depository (or such fewer number of days as shall be acceptable to such
Securities Depository). A copy of any such notice shall be delivered promptly to the Trustee.
(b) Beneficial Ownership Interests. The Trustee and the District may treat the Securities Depository as
the sole and exclusive Registered Owner of the Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of
payment of Debt Service on the Bonds, selecting the Bonds of any Series or portions thereof to be
redeemed, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to Registered Owners of the Bonds
under this Indenture,registering the transfer of the Bonds of any Series,obtaining any consent or other
action to be taken by the Registered Owner of the Bonds of any Series, and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the District shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Neither the Trustee nor the District shall have any responsibility or obligation to any participant, any
Person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Series 2021 Bonds under or through Securities
Depository(a"Participant"),with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by the Securities
Depository or any direct Participant;the payment by the Securities Depository or any direct Participant
of any amount in respect of Debt Service on the Bonds of any Series;any notice which is permitted or
required to be delivered to the Registered Owners of the Bonds of any Series under this Indenture;the
selection by Securities Depository of any Person to receive payment in the event of a partial
redemption of the Bonds of any Series; or any consent given or other action taken by the Securities
Depository as the Registered Owner of the Bonds of any Series. So long as the Securities Depository
is the Registered Owner of any Series of Bonds, the Trustee shall pay all Debt Service on the Bonds
of such Series only to the Securities Depository,and all such payments shall be valid and effective to
fully satisfy and discharge the District's obligations with respect to Debt Service on such Series of
Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(c) Communications with Bondholders. In connection with any notice or other communication to be
provided to Registered Owners of the Bonds of any Series pursuant to this Indenture by the District or
the Trustee with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Registered Owners of the Bonds
of any Series, the District or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for such
consent or other action and give the Securities Depository notice of such record date not less than
fifteen(15)calendar days in advance of such record date to the extent practicable.

Bonds as the District, may direct. If less than all of a Series of Bonds,or of a single maturity within the same
Series are to be redeemed, the Series or subseries to be redeemed will be selected by lot unless otherwise
provided herein or by the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Series of Bonds; provided, however, that
the portion of any Series or subseries of a denomination greater than the minimum Authorized Denomination
for the Bonds of such Series to be redeemed shall be redeemed in part only in Authorized Denomination and
that, in selecting portions of the Bonds of a Series for redemption, the Trustee shall treat each Bond of such
Series as representing that number of that Series of the minimum Authorized Denominations for such Series

Event of Default, such redemption shall be applied on a pro-rata basis to all Outstanding Bonds of the Series
called for redemption,without differentiation by maturity or within a maturity.
Section 4.06 Notice of Redemption. The Trustee shall deliver(by first class mail, unless otherwise
indicated in the applicable rules of the Securities Depository) notice of any redemption to the respective
Owners of any Bonds designated for redemption at their respective addresses appearing on the Registration

notice, the redemption date, the redemption place and the Redemption Price and shall designate the CUSIP
numbers, if any,the Bond numbers and the maturity or maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed(except in the
event of redemption of all of the Bonds of such maturity or maturities in whole), and shall require that such
Bonds be then surrendered at the designated office of the Trustee for redemption at the Redemption Price,
giving notice also that further interest on such Bonds will not accrue from and after the date fixed for
redemption. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed,nor any defect in such notice, shall affect the
validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds or the cessation of accrual of interest thereon from
and after the date fixed for redemption. With respect to any notice of any optional redemption of Bonds of a
Series, unless at the time such notice is given the Bonds to be redeemed shall be deemed to have been paid
within the meaning of Section 3.05(e)hereof, such notice shall state that such redemption is conditional upon
receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of moneys that, together with other
available amounts held by the Trustee,are sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on,
the Bonds to be redeemed, and that if such moneys shall not have been so received, said notice shall be of no
force and effect and the District shall not be required to redeem such Bonds. If a notice of redemption of Bonds
contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received two (2)business days prior to the redemption
date, the redemption of Bonds as described in the conditional notice of redemption shall be rescinded and not
be made and the Trustee shall give notice to the Owners and in the manner in which the notice of redemption
was given, that such moneys were not so received and that there shall be no redemption of Bonds pursuant to
such notice of redemption. Any Bonds subject to conditional redemption and for which such redemption has
been rescinded shall remain Outstanding and the rescission of such redemption shall not constitute an Event
of Default. Further, in the case of a conditional redemption, the failure of the District to make moneys or
authorized securities available in part or in whole on or before the Redemption Date shall not constitute an
Event of Default.
24
Failure to give the notices described in this Section, or any defects therein, shall not in any manner
affect the validity of any proceedings for redemption of any other Bonds for which such notice has been duly
given. Neither the District nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any defect in the CUSIP number
that appears on any Bonds or in any redemption notice with respect thereto, and any such redemption notice
may contain a statement to the effect that CUSIP numbers have been assigned by an independent service for
convenience of reference and that neither the District nor the Trustee shall be liable for any inaccuracy in such
numbers.
Section 4.07 Payment of Redeemed Bonds. Notice having been given in the manner provided in
Section 4.05 hereof, the Bonds or portions thereof so called for redemption shall become due and payable on
the Redemption Date so designated at the Redemption Price, plus interest accrued and unpaid to the
Redemption Date, and upon presentation and surrender thereof at the office specified in such notice. If there
shall be called for redemption less than all of the Redemption Price of any Bond,the District shall execute and
the Trustee shall authenticate, upon the surrender of such Bond, without charge to the Registered Owner
thereof, for the unredeemed balance of the principal amount of the Bond so surrendered, Bonds of like Series
and maturity in any Authorized Denomination. If,on the Redemption Date,moneys for the redemption of all
the Bonds or portions thereof of any like Series and maturity to be redeemed,together with accrued and unpaid
interest to the Redemption Date, shall be held by the Trustee so as to be available therefor on said date and if
notice of redemption shall have been given as aforesaid, then, from and after the Redemption Date interest on
the Bonds or portions thereof of such Series and maturity so called for redemption shall cease to accrue and
become payable. If said moneys shall not be so available on the Redemption Date, such Bonds or portions
thereof shall continue to bear or accrete interest until paid at the same rate as they would have borne or accreted
interest at had they not been called for redemption.
Section 4.08 Modification by Supplemental Indenture. The provisions of this Article may be
modified by any Supplemental Indenture in respect of any Series of Additional Bonds authorized thereby,and
in the event of any conflict with the provisions hereof the provisions of such Supplemental Indenture shall
control in respect of any Series of Additional Bonds authorized thereby.
Section 4.09 Partial Redemption of Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bonds redeemed in part only,
the District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Owner thereof a new Bond or
Bonds of the same Series in Authorized Denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered.
Section 4.10 Effect of Notice of Redemption.
(a) Notice of redemption having been given as provided in Section 4.056 of this Indenture, the Bonds or
portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date and,
unless the District defaults in its obligation to make provision for the payment of the principal thereof,
redemption premium,if any,or accrued interest thereon,such Bonds or portions thereof shall cease to
bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption, whether or not such Bonds are presented
and surrendered for payment on such date.
(b) If the District shall fail to make provision for payment of all sums due on a Redemption Date, then
any Bond or portion thereof called for redemption shall continue to bear interest at the rate stated on
the Bond until due provision is made for the payment of same by the District.

on the Bonds.

control, that if taken or omitted, respectively, would (i)cause the interest on the Series 2021 Bonds to be

7; provided,however, that the District will not be required to comply with any particular requirement of this
Article 7 if the District has received an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that (i)such
noncompliance will not adversely affect the excludability from gross income for federal income tax purposes
of interest on the Series 2021 Bonds or(ii)compliance with some other requirement will satisfy the applicable
requirements of the Code, in which case compliance with such other requirement specified in such counsel's
opinion will constitute compliance with the corresponding requirement specified in this Article 7.
Section 7.02 No Private Use or Payment and No Private Loan.
(a) The District covenants and agrees that it will make such use of the proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds,
including interest or other investment income derived from such proceeds,regulate the use of property

required so that the Series 2021 Bonds will not be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of
section 141 of the Code. Moreover, the District will certify,through an authorized officer,employee
or agent, based upon all facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the
date the Series 2021 Bonds are delivered, that the proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds will not be used
in a manner that would cause the Series 2021 Bonds to be"private activity bonds"within the meaning
of section 141 of the Code.
(b) At any time that a nongovernmental entity manages,operates or provides services with respect to any
portion of the Project financed with proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds, the contract, agreement or
arrangement pursuant to which such nongovernmental entity manages, operates or provides services
will be a "qualified management contract" that complies with the guidelines set forth in Revenue
Procedure 2017-13,I.R.B. 2017-6, as amended and supplemented from time to time.

the Code. Moreover,the District will certify,through an authorized officer,employee or agent,based upon all
facts and estimates known or reasonably expected to be in existence on the date the Series 2021 Bonds are

2021 Bonds to be"arbitrage bonds"within the meaning of section 148(a) of the Code.
Section 7.06 Arbitrage Rebate. If the District does not qualify for an exception to the requirements
of section 148(f) of the Code relating to the required rebate to the United States, the District will take all

date of the delivery of the Series 2021 Bonds, or on such other dates as may be permitted under applicable

indirectly pay any amount otherwise payable to the federal government pursuant to the foregoing requirements
to any person other than the federal government by entering into any investment arrangement with respect to
the gross proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds that might result in a reduction in the amount required to be paid

party.
Section 7.07 Information Reporting. The District covenants and agrees to file or cause to be filed
with the Secretary of the Treasury,not later than the fifteenth(15111)day of the second calendar month after the

1.141-2(d)(3)of the Regulations)that causes the Series 2021 Bonds to fail to meet any requirement of section

by section 1.141-12 of the Regulations, the District takes such remedial action, and a Favorable Opinion of
Bond Counsel is obtained that such remedial action cures any failure to meet the requirements of section 141
of the Code.

District's obligations under the covenants and provisions of this Article 7 will survive the defeasance and
discharge of the Series 2021 Bonds for as long as such matters are relevant to the excludability from gross
income of interest on the Series 2021 Bonds for federal income tax purposes

or cause to be secured the area of damage or destruction to safeguard against injury to persons or property and,
promptly thereafter, remediate any hazard and restore the Premises and the Project thereon to a presentable
condition whether by repair or by demolition,removal of debris,and screening from public view. The District
shall, to the extent allowed by a Legal Requirement, promptly commence and thereafter proceed with
reasonable diligence (subject to a reasonable time allowance for the purpose of adjusting the insurance loss
and subject to Force Majeure Delay) to repair, restore, replace or rebuild the Pr
85
oject as nearly as practicable to a condition substantially equivalent to that existing immediately prior to such
damage or destruction, in accordance with applicable provisions of this Indenture, subject, however, to the
District's option to raze the Project as set forth in Section 13.04 hereof. Such repair, restoration,replacement
or rebuilding, including temporary repairs for the protection of other property pending the completion of any
such work, remediation of hazards and restoration of the Premises and the Project to a presentable condition
or any demolition and debris removal required are sometimes referred to in this Article as the"Casualty Repair
Work".
Section 13.02 Insurance Proceeds.
(a) Requirements for Disbursement. Insurance proceeds paid pursuant to the policies of insurance
required under Article 11 of the Design Build Agreement or Article XIV of the Hotel Services
Agreement for loss of or damage to the Project (herein sometimes referred to as the "Insurance
Proceeds"), shall be deposited to the credit of the Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds Fund and
shall be paid and delivered to the Persons specified in Section 12.03 hereof. Except as provided in
subsections(b)and(c)below, Insurance Proceeds delivered to the Insurance Trustee shall be applied
to the payment of the costs of the Casualty Repair Work and shall be paid out to or for the account of
the District from time to time as such Casualty Repair Work progresses. The Insurance Trustee shall
make such payments or disbursements of such Insurance Proceeds upon the request from the District
when accompanied by a certificate dated not more than fifteen(15)calendar days prior to such request,
signed by an Authorized District Representative,and,to the extent an architect is reasonably required
to be retained with respect to the nature of the Casualty Repair Work being performed,by a qualified
design professional in charge of the Casualty Repair Work selected by the District, setting forth the
following:
(i) That the sum then requested either has been paid by the District or is due to contractors,
subcontractors, materialmen, architects, engineers or other Persons who have rendered
services or furnished materials in connection with the Casualty Repair Work, giving a
reasonably detailed description of the services and materials and the several amounts so paid
or due; and
(ii) That except for the amount stated in such certificate to be due (or except for statutory or
contractual retainage not yet due and payable),there is no outstanding indebtedness for such
Casualty Repair Work known to the Persons signing such certificate which is then due to
Persons being paid,after due inquiry.
Insurance Proceeds paid or disbursed to the District, whether from the Insurance Trustee,the
distribution of any insurance policies or otherwise,shall be held by the District in trust for the purposes
of paying the cost of the Casualty Repair Work and shall be applied by the District to such Casualty
Repair Work or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.02. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, all payments made from the Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds
Fund shall be presumed by the Insurance Trustee to be made for the purposes certified in said written
requests, and the Insurance Trustee shall not be required to see to the application of any payments
made from the Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds Fund or to inquire into the purposes for which

Trustee shall not be bound to make an investigation into the facts or matters stated in any written
request.
(b) Disbursements for Work Performed. Upon compliance with subsection (a) above, the Insurance
Trustee shall, out of the Insurance Proceeds and the Casualty Shortfall Funding, pay or cause to be
paid to the District or to the Persons named in the certificate the respective amounts stated therein to
have been paid by the District or to be due to such Persons, as the case may be. The distribution
86
of funds out of the Insurance Proceeds for Casualty Repair Work shall not constitute or be deemed to
constitute(i)an approval or acceptance by the District of the relevant Casualty Repair Work or(ii)a
representation or indemnity by the District or any other Person against any deficiency or defects in
such Casualty Repair Work or against any breach of contract.
(c) Disbursements of Excess Proceeds. If the Insurance Proceeds (and other funds, if any, including the
Casualty Shortfall Funding) received by the Insurance Trustee shall exceed the entire cost of the
Casualty Repair Work,the Insurance Trustee shall pay the amount of any such excess proceeds to the
District. Any such excess proceeds delivered to the District shall be considered to be a portion of
Gross Operating Revenues.
(d) Insufficient Funds; Payment by the District. In the event of a Casualty for which the Insurance
Proceeds are to be distributed to the Insurance Trustee pursuant to Section 13.03(b), within five (5)
Business Days after the first distribution of any Insurance Proceeds to the Insurance Trustee in
accordance with the terms hereof and following the earlier to occur of (i) final settlement of the
District's insurance claim related to such Casualty or(ii)the entry of a final non-appealable judgment
disposing of the District's insurance claim related to such Casualty, the District shall deposit with the
Insurance Trustee an amount sufficient to cover any difference between the reasonably anticipated
costs of the Casualty Repair Work and the amount of the Insurance Proceeds which will be deposited
with the Insurance Trustee(a"Casualty Shortfall Funding"). Without limiting the Insurance Trustee's
obligations under subsection (b) above, as Casualty Repair Work progresses, the District shall be
obligated to pay for all costs and expenses of any such Casualty Repair Work that are not covered by
Insurance Proceeds or for which Insurance Proceeds are inadequate.

restoration as required by Section 13.02; or
(b) The Insurance Trustee, (i) in the case of any particular Casualty resulting in damage involving a
reasonably estimated cost of repair of more than$250,000 or(ii)in the event an Event of Default then

set forth, in Section 13.02.

be removed or replaced unless and until (y)the Insurance Trustee receives notice of such removal and
replacement and the identity of the successor Insurance Trustee at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the

effective date of any such removal or replacement of the Insurance Trustee, the successor Insurance Trustee

expenses of the Persons from time to time serving as Insurance Trustee.
87
Section 13.04 Option to Terminate.
(a) Damage or Destniction of Substantially All of the Project. In the event that either(1) Substantially
All of the Project shall be damaged or destroyed by Casualty at any time while the Bonds are
Outstanding or(2)any portion of the Project shall be damaged or destroyed by Casualty at any time
while the Bonds are Outstanding and the Legal Requirements then applicable to the Premises do not
permit the restoration of the Project so as to complete a tenantable building and an economically viable
convention center hotel, then the District may, at its option(exercised with reasonable promptness in
the circumstances, but in all events within 240 calendar days after such Casualty) and subject to the
terms of the Hotel Services Agreement, terminate Transaction Documents by providing a termination
notice to the Trustee of the occurrence of such Casualty,and by satisfying each of the following,which

Service due with respect to the Bonds as of the date of termination hereafter,upon the service of such
notice and the making of such payments within the period aforesaid,the Transaction Documents shall
cease as of the end of the calendar month in which such notice is received by the Trustee. Failure to
terminate the Transaction Documents within said 240 calendar day period shall constitute an election

with the construction and completion of new replacement Project in a manner consistent with the terms
of the Design Build Agreement or the operation of the Hotel in a manner consistent with the Hotel
Services Agreement.

the excess Insurance Proceeds, if any,payable in respect of such damage or destruction (the "Excess
Proceeds")shall be payable to the District but shall be held by the Insurance Trustee and paid to,and

prior to the final five(5)years prior to the stated maturity of the Bonds then Outstanding, ten percent
(10%) of the fair market value of all of the Project immediately prior to such Casualty or(ii) if such

hereby in such order and manner as Beneficiary shall direct in writing. With regard to that portion, if
any, of proceeds from such title insurance policy which remain after the full and final payment and
satisfaction of the Obligations, including all accrued but unpaid interest, penalties, costs and expenses
due and owing, such remaining portion of the proceeds shall be paid to Grantor.
Section 3.3 Recordation. Grantor, at its expense, will at all times cause this Deed of Trust

on and first priority perfected security interest in the Mortgaged Premises, subject only to the Permitted
Encumbrances. Grantor will pay or cause to be paid, and will indemnify Beneficiary in respect of, all
taxes (including interest and penalties) at any time payable in connection with the liens or security

LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 15
ACTIVE 48008105v7
that any of the foregoing materially or adversely affects the Grantor's use, operation, and enjoyment of
the Mortgaged Premises, Grantor shall not enter into same without Beneficiary's prior written consent,
and, to the extent approved by Beneficiary, Grantor shall cause the foregoing to be collaterally assigned
to Beneficiary in a form of pledge and security agreement reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary.

interests, servitude rights, licenses, and property at any time acquired by Grantor, and all greater or
different interests in all or any part of the Mortgaged Premises at any time acquired by Grantor,whether

construction, replacement, or substitute lease, sublease or ground lease, or otherwise, shall forthwith
become subject to the lien of this Deed of Trust without further action on the part of Grantor or
Beneficiary, including, without limitation, any additional land, leasehold interests, and subleasehold
interests,which may hereafter be included within the Mortgaged Premises. Grantor, at its expense,will
execute and deliver to Beneficiary,upon request(and will record and file as provided in Section 3.3), an
instrument supplemental to this Deed of Trust, reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to
Beneficiary,whenever such an instrument is,in the opinion of Beneficiary,necessary or advisable under
applicable law to subject to the lien of this Deed of Trust all right, title, and interest of Grantor in and to
all property required by this Deed of Trust to be subjected to the lien hereof and acquired by Grantor
since the date of this Deed of Trust or the date of the most recent supplemental instrument so subjecting

and habitable condition. Subject to Grantor's rights to contest same as may be expressly provided for in

shall not suffer any lien of mechanics or materialmen therefor to attach to any part of the Mortgaged
Premises. Grantor shall protect every part of the Mortgaged Premises from removal, destruction, and
damage except as contemplated by the Ground Lease, and shall not do or suffer to be done any act
whereby the value of any part of the Mortgaged Premises may be lessened. Except as contemplated by
the Ground Lease, no building, Improvement, or other property now or hereafter covered by the lien of
this Deed of Trust shall be removed, demolished, or materially altered or enlarged, nor shall any new
building or Improvement be constructed,without the prior written consent of Beneficiary,which consent
may be withheld in their sole discretion. Beneficiary,and their respective agents or representatives shall,
upon prior reasonable notice to Grantor, have access to the Mortgaged Premises at all reasonable times
in order to inspect same and to verify Grantor's compliance with their duties and obligations under this
instrument.

all Taxes owed by the Grantor and levied or assessed against the Mortgaged Premises,including,without
limitation, all transfer taxes and taxes in lieu of ad valorem taxes, as the same become due and payable;
provided, however, that Grantor may contest the amount of such Taxes and assessments so long as
Grantor does so in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, and in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. In the event of the passage subsequent to the date of this Deed of Trust of any law or regulation
deducting from the value of the Mortgaged Premises for the purposes of taxation, any lien thereon, or
changing in any way the laws now in force for the taxation of deeds of trust,mortgages,or indebtedness
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PACE 16
ACTIVE 48008105v7
secured thereby, for state or local purposes, or the manner of the operation of any such taxes so as to
affect the interest of Beneficiary, then and in such event, Grantor shall bear and pay the full amount of
such Taxes owed by the Grantor. If Grantor fails to pay or cause to be paid, prior to delinquency, any
such Taxes owed by the Grantor and assessments including, without limitation, transfer taxes, taxes in
lieu of ad valorem taxes and taxes against this Deed of Trust or the Obligations secured hereby,
Beneficiary may pay the same, together with all costs and penalties thereon, at Grantor's expense;
provided,however,that if for any reason payment by Grantor of any such new or additional taxes would
be unlawful or if the payment thereof would constitute usury or render the Obligations wholly or partially
usurious under any of the terms or provisions of the Bonds or this Deed of Trust, or otherwise,
Beneficiary (acting at the direction of the Owners) may pay the amount or portion of such Taxes as
renders the Obligations unlawful or usurious, in which event Grantor shall concurrently therewith pay
the remaining lawful and non-usurious portion or balance of said Taxes.
Section 3.8 Utility Services. As contemplated by the Bond Documents, the Transaction
Documents and the Ground Lease, Grantor will pay or cause to be paid all charges for all public and
private utility services as required for use of the Hotel Unit, all public or private rail and highway
services,all public or private communications services, and all sprinkler systems and protective services

or cause compliance with all contracts relating to any such services, and will do or cause to be done all
other things required for the maintenance and continuance of all such services.
Section 3.9 Licenses and Qualifications. Grantor shall do all things necessary to obtain,
maintain, and renew, or cause to be obtained, maintained, and renewed, from time to time, all permits,
licenses, and other governmental approvals necessary for construction, installation, renovation,

by the Transaction Documents. Grantor hereby agrees to give prompt notice to Beneficiary of the failure
to obtain, or the modification or loss of, any permit, license, or other governmental approval that
materially and adversely affects the Condominium Project, which notice shall set forth the reasons for
such failure to obtain, or such modification or loss, and the steps Grantor is taking to obtain or reinstate
such permit, license, or approval.
Section 3.10 Beneficiary's Right to Cure. Grantor acknowledges and confirms
Beneficiary's right to cure any default, event of default, or Event of Default of Grantor under the
Transaction Documents, and shall cooperate with Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of such
agreements and any consents executed in connection therewith in the event of exercise by Beneficiary
of its right to cure as herein contained. In addition, if Grantor shall fail to maintain the Hotel Unit
(including the Improvements)on the Mortgaged Premises in the repair and condition required hereunder,
or to pay promptly when due all Taxes and assessments, as aforesaid, or to pay promptly when due all
charges for utility services, as aforesaid, or to preserve the prior lien of this Deed of Trust on the
Mortgaged Premises,as provided herein,or to keep the Hotel Unit(including the Improvements)insured
as provided herein,or to deliver the policy,or policies,of insurance or the renewal thereof to Beneficiary
as provided herein, then Beneficiary may, at its option, but without being required to do so, make such
repairs,perform such maintenance, pay such Taxes and assessments, pay such utility charges, purchase
any tax title thereon, remove any prior liens, and prosecute or defend any suits in relation to the
preservation of the prior lien of this Deed of Trust on the Mortgaged Premises, or insure and keep the

PACE 18
ACTIVE 48008105v7
shall fail to comply with this clause (b), Grantor hereby agrees that, whether or not an Event of
Default shall have occurred or be continuing (and whether or not any cure period with respect
thereto shall have commenced or expired),Beneficiary shall be entitled,as a matter of strict right,
and without regard to the then value of the Mortgaged Premises,to the appointment of a receiver
to enforce the provisions of this clause(b).
Neither Beneficiary, nor any Owner shall have any duty to make any such inspection or perform any

having undertaken any such inspection, audit, sampling or tests, for not making the same carefully or

compliance with, in all material respects, all Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and shall

to remain, and will promptly discharge or cause to be discharged, any deed of trust, mortgage,
encumbrance, or charge on, pledge of, security interest in, or conditional sale or other title retention

Beneficiary's security for the Obligations. Therefore, Grantor shall not, voluntarily or by operation of
law,directly or indirectly,sell,transfer, convey,or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Mortgaged
Premises, or any interest in the Mortgaged Premises, except as otherwise expressly permitted in the
Indenture and subject to (i) the purchase option and any other reversionary rights of the City as more

as security for the Indebtedness and the Obligations, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances

LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 20
ACTIVE 48008105v7
make all future payments of Rents directly to Beneficiary and each such lessee shall be entitled to rely
on such Lease Rent Notice and shall have no liability to Grantor for any Rents paid to Beneficiary after
receipt of such Lease Rent Notice. Rents so received by Beneficiary for any period prior to foreclosure
under this Deed of Trust or acceptance of a deed in lieu of such foreclosure shall be applied by
Beneficiary to the payment of the following (in such order and priority as Beneficiary shall determine):
(a) all operating expenses; (b) and all expenses incident to taking and retaining possession of the
Mortgaged Premises and/or collecting Rent as it becomes due and payable; and(c)the Indebtedness. In
no event will this Article 4 reduce the Indebtedness except to the extent, if any, that Rents are actually
received by Beneficiary and applied upon or after said receipt to such Indebtedness in accordance with
the preceding sentence. Without impairing its rights hereunder, Beneficiary may, at its option, at any
time and from time to time, release to Grantor, Rents so received by Beneficiary or any part thereof. As
between Grantor and Beneficiary, and any person claiming through or under Grantor, other than any
lessee under the Leases who has not received a Lease Rent Notice, this assignment of Rents is intended
to be immediate and unconditional, and the Lease Rent Notice hereof is intended solely for the benefit
of each such lessee and shall never inure to the benefit of Grantor or any person claiming through or
under Grantor, other than a lessee who has not received such Lease Rent Notice. It shall never be
necessary for Beneficiary to institute legal proceedings of any kind whatsoever to enforce the provisions
of this Deed of Trust with respect to Rents. GRANTOR SHALL HAVE NO RIGHT OR CLAIM
AGAINST ANY LESSEE FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY RENTS TO BENEFICIARY
HEREUNDER, AND GRANTOR HEREBY INDEMNIFIES AND AGREES TO HOLD FREE
AND HARMLESS EACH LESSEE FROM AND AGAINST ALL LIABILITY, LOSS, COST,

directly from any of the lessees under the Leases, Grantor shall, upon receipt of written direction from
Beneficiary,make demand and/or sue for all Rents due and payable under one or more Leases,as directed
by Beneficiary, as they become due and payable, including Rents which are past due and unpaid. If
Grantor fails to take such action,or at any time during which Grantor is not receiving Rents directly from
lessees under the Leases,Beneficiary shall have the right(but shall be under no duty)to demand,collect
and sue for, in its own name or in the name of Grantor, all Rents due and payable under the Leases, as
they become due and payable, including Rents which are past due and unpaid.

recording of a release, satisfaction or discharge of the Deed of Trust duly executed by Beneficiary, the
assignment in Section 4.1 of this Deed of Trust shall terminate,become null and void and shall be of no
further force and effect.

judgment or final decree against Grantor as provided in this Deed of Trust, and against any
guarantor or indemnitor of the Obligations, as provided in any guarantee or indemnity.
Beneficiary may collect money adjudged or decreed to be payable to Beneficiary and shall be
entitled to recover such judgment either before, after, or during the pendency of any proceeding
for the enforcement of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or any such guarantee or indemnity.
The right of Beneficiary to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any entry or sale, by
the exercise of any other right, power, or remedy provided by and for the enforcement of the
provisions of this Deed of Trust or the other Bond Documents or the foreclosure of the lien hereof
or sale of the Mortgaged Premises hereunder. In case of insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings

aggregate amount of the proceeds of the sale of the Mortgaged Premises and the distribution
from the estates of Grantor.

any one or more of the remedies available under applicable state law, without notice (unless
notice is required by applicable statute),including,without limitation,(1)institute suit to enforce
the rights of Beneficiary; and (2) enforce, at Beneficiary's continuing option, payment and
performance of all the Obligations by action to foreclose this Deed of Trust, either or both,

Beneficiary's right to institute or maintain the other, provided that Beneficiary shall have only
one payment and satisfaction of the Obligations; and (3) request Trustee to proceed with
foreclosure under the power of sale which is hereby conferred, such foreclosure to be
accomplished in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) The Deed of Trust Trustee or his or her successor or substitute is
authorized and empowered and it shall be his or her special duty at the request of the
Beneficiary to sell all or any part of the Mortgaged Premises situated in the State of
Texas at the courthouse of any county in the State of Texas in which any part of the
Mortgaged Premises is situated, at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash with or
without having taken possession of same, at any hour designated between the hours of
10:00 o'clock a.m. and 4:00 o'clock p.m. on the first Tuesday(or the first Wednesday of
the month if the first Tuesday occurs on January 1 or July 4) in any month after having
given notice of such sale in accordance with (and with such sale being conducted in
accordance with) the applicable requirements of Section 51.002 of the Texas Property
Code or, if and to the extent such statute is not then in force, with the applicable
requirements,at the time of the sale,of the successor statute or statutes,if any,governing
sales of Texas real property under powers of sale conferred by deeds of trust. If there is
no statute in force at the time of the sale governing sales of Texas real property under
powers of sale conferred by deeds of trust, such sale shall comply with applicable law,
at the time of the sale, governing sales of Texas real property under powers of sale
conferred by deeds of trust. Any sale made by the Deed of Trust Trustee hereunder may
be as an entirety or in such parcels as the Beneficiary may request, and any sale may be
adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further
notice except as may be required by law. The sale by the Deed of Trust Trustee of less
than the whole of the Mortgaged Premises shall not exhaust the power of sale herein
granted, and the Deed of Trust Trustee is specifically empowered to make successive
sale or sales under such power until the whole of the Mortgaged Premises shall be sold;
and, if the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Premises shall
be less than the aggregate of the Indebtedness and the expense of executing this trust as
provided herein, this Deed of Trust and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and
effect as to the unsold portion of the Mortgaged Premises just as though no sale had been
made; provided, however, that Grantor shall never have any right to require the sale of
less than the whole of the Mortgaged Premises but the Beneficiary shall have the right,
at its sole election, to request the Deed of Trust Trustee to sell less than the whole of the
Mortgaged

ACTIVE 48008105v7
Premises. After each sale, the Deed of Trust Trustee shall make to the purchaser or
purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances in the name of Grantor,
conveying the leasehold estate in the Hotel Unit so sold to the purchaser or purchasers
with general warranty of title subject to the Permitted Encumbrances, and shall receive
the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. Payment of the
purchase price to the Deed of Trust Trustee shall satisfy the obligation of purchaser at
such sale therefor,and such purchaser shall not be responsible for the application thereof.
The power of sale granted herein shall not be exhausted by any sale held hereunder by
the Deed of Trust Trustee or its substitute or successor, and such power of sale may be
exercised from time to time and as many times as the Beneficiary may deem necessary
until all of the Mortgaged Premises has been duly sold and all Indebtedness has been
fully paid. In,the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion
of the Beneficiary, such sale shall not exhaust the power of sale hereunder and the
Beneficiary shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made hereunder.
Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or deeds given by the
Deed of Trust Trustee or any successor or substitute appointed hereunder as to
nonpayment of the Indebtedness, or as to the occurrence of any Event of Default, or as
to the Beneficiary having declared all of such indebtedness to be due and payable, or as
to the request to sell, or as to notice of time,place and terms of sale and of the properties
to be sold having been duly given, or as to the refusal, failure or inability to act of the
Deed of Trust Trustee or any substitute or successor, or as to the appointment of any
substitute or successor trustee, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by
the Beneficiary or by such Deed of Trust Trustee, substitute or successor, shall be taken
as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited. The Deed of Trust
Trustee or its successor or substitute may appoint or delegate any one or more Persons
as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by the Deed of
Trust Trustee, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale, but in the name
and on behalf of the Deed of Trust Trustee or its successor or substitute. At any time
during the bidding,the Deed of Trust Trustee may require a bidding party(A)to disclose
its full name, state and city of residence, occupation, and specific business office
location, and the name and address of the principal the bidding party is representing (if
applicable), and (B)to demonstrate reasonable evidence of the bidding party's financial
ability(or, if applicable,the financial ability of the principal of such bidding party),as a
condition to the bidding party submitting bids at the foreclosure sale. If any such bidding
party (the "Questioned Bidder") declines to comply with the Deed of Trust Trustee's
requirement in this regard, or if such Questioned Bidder does respond but the Deed of
Trust Trustee, in Deed of Trust Trustee's sole and absolute discretion, deems the
information or the evidence of the financial ability of the Questioned Bidder (or, if
applicable, the principal of such bidding party)to be inadequate, then the Deed of Trust
Trustee may continue the bidding with reservation; and in such event (1) the Deed of
Trust Trustee shall be authorized to caution the Questioned Bidder concerning the legal
obligations to be incurred in submitting bids, and(2) if the Questioned Bidder is not the
highest bidder at the sale, or if having been the highest bidder the Questioned Bidder
fails

PACE 26
ACTIVE 48008105v7
to deliver the cash purchase price payment promptly to the Deed of Trust Trustee, all
bids by the Questioned Bidder shall be null and void. The Deed of Trust Trustee may,
in Deed of Trust Trustee's sole and absolute discretion, determine that a credit bid may
be in the best interest of the Grantor and Beneficiary,and elect to sell the Hotel Unit for
credit or for a combination of cash and credit; provided,however, that the Deed of Trust
Trustee shall have no obligation to accept any bid except an all cash bid. In the event
the Deed of Trust Trustee requires a cash bid and cash is not delivered within a
reasonable time after conclusion of the bidding process,as specified by the Deed of Trust
Trustee, but in no event later than 3:45 p.m. local time on the day of sale, then said
contingent sale shall be null and void, the bidding process may be recommenced, and
any subsequent bids or sale shall be made as if no prior bids were made or accepted.
(ii) To the extent permitted by law, the Deed of Trust Trustee and the
Beneficiary, and each of them, shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of
any Obligations secured by this Deed of Trust and to exercise all rights and powers under
this Deed of Trust or any other Bond Document or under any other agreement or any
laws now or hereafter in force, without regard to whether or not some or all of the
Obligations secured hereby may now or hereafter be otherwise secured by mortgage,
deed of trust,pledge,lien,assignment,or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed
of Trust nor its enforcement,whether by court action or pursuant to the power of sale or
other powers herein contained, shall prejudice or in any manner affect the Deed of Trust
Trustee's or the Beneficiary's right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or
hereafter held by the Deed of Trust Trustee or the Beneficiary, it being agreed that the
Deed of Trust Trustee and the Beneficiary, and each of them,shall be entitled to enforce
this Deed of Trust, and any other security now or hereafter held by the Beneficiary or
the Deed of Trust Trustee, in such order and manner as they or either of them may in
their absolute discretion determine, except as otherwise required by law. No remedy in
this Deed of Trust conferred upon or reserved to the Deed of Trust Trustee or the
Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy here or by law provided or
permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. To the
extent permitted by law, every power or remedy given by this Deed of Trust or any of
the other Bond Documents to the Deed of Trust Trustee or Beneficiary,or to which either
of them may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently,
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Deed of Trust Trustee
or the Beneficiary and either of them may pursue inconsistent remedies. Without
limitation upon the foregoing, each time the Grantor fails or refuses to make payment,
or to perform,as required by this Deed of Trust or any of the other Bond Documents,the
Beneficiary shall have the right, exercisable in the Beneficiary's sole discretion, to cure
all or any part of such failure or refusal upon such terms as the Beneficiary shall, in its
sole discretion, deem necessary or advisable. Any amounts paid by the Beneficiary
pursuant to this provision shall be added to, and deemed a part of, the Obligations, shall
be secured in the same manner as the Bonds are secured,shall bear interest from the date
of the advance at the rate of interest provided in the Bonds, and shall,

PAGE 27
ACTIVE 48008905v7
together with the interest thereon, be payable by the Grantor to the Beneficiary on
demand.
(i) Subject to the terms of the Ground Lease, Beneficiary shall be entitled, as a
matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Obligations or the
solvency of any Person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged
Premises. Grantor waives any right to require that any such receiver post any bond. Such
receiver and his agents shall be empowered(i)to take possession of the Mortgaged Premises and
any businesses conducted by Grantor or any other Person thereon and any business assets used
in connection therewith, (ii) to exclude Grantor and Grantor's agents, servants, and employees
from the Mortgaged Premises,or,at the option of the receiver,in lieu of such exclusion,to collect
a fair market rental from any such Persons occupying any part of the Mortgaged Premises, (iii)
to collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (iv) to complete any development,
installation, or construction that may be in progress, (v) to do such maintenance and make such
repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary,(vi)to use all stores of materials,supplies,
and maintenance equipment on the Mortgaged Premises and replace such items at the expense
of the receivership estate, (vii) to proceed with the completion of the Hotel Unit (including the
Improvements) substantially in accordance with the Plans, with such changes or modifications
in the Plans as reasonably deemed necessary, and in connection therewith to enforce the
Contracts, Plans, and Permits, (viii) to pay all taxes and assessments against the Mortgaged
Premises or any part thereof, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating
expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, (ix) to borrow from
Beneficiary such funds as may reasonably be necessary to the effective exercise of the receiver's
powers,on such terms as may be agreed upon by the receiver and Beneficiary, and(x)generally
to do anything that Grantor could legally do if Grantor were in possession of the Mortgaged
Premises. All expenses incurred by the receiver or his agents, including obligations to repay
funds borrowed by the receiver,shall constitute a part of the Obligations. Any revenues collected
by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys' fees
and expenses incurred by the receiver and by Beneficiary,and the balance shall be applied toward
the Obligations or in such other manner as the court may direct.
0) This Deed of Trust shall be effective as a mortgage as well as a deed of trust and
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default may be foreclosed as to any property constituting the
Mortgaged Premises (including any interest in the Hotel Unit) in any manner permitted by the
laws of the State of Texas or of any other state in which any part of the Mortgaged Premises is
situated, and any foreclosure suit or proceeding may be brought by Deed of Trust Trustee or by
Beneficiary. If a foreclosure hereunder shall be commenced by Deed of Trust Trustee, or his
substitute or successor, Beneficiary may at any time before the sale of the property direct Deed
of Trust Trustee to abandon the sale, and may then institute suit for the collection of the
Indebtedness, and/or for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust. It is agreed that if Beneficiary
should institute a suit for the collection of the Obligations and/or for the foreclosure of this Deed
of Trust,Beneficiary may at any time before the entry of a final judgment in said suit dismiss the
same, and require Deed of Trust Trustee, his substitute or successor to sell the Mortgaged
Premises in accordance with the provisions of this Deed of Trust.

(k) Beneficiary or Deed of Trust Trustee may, personally or by their respective
agents or attorneys, take such steps to protect and enforce their respective rights whether by
action, suit, or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant,
condition, or agreement in the Indenture, in this Deed of Trust, or in any of the other Bond
Documents or in aid of the execution of any power herein or therein granted, or sale of the
Mortgaged Premises as herein permitted or for any foreclosure hereunder,or for the enforcement
of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Beneficiary or Deed of Trust
Trustee shall elect.
(1) Beneficiary shall be entitled to all remedies available to a secured party in the
Code as set forth in Article 7 below.
Section 6.2 Right to Purchase. Beneficiary or, subject to the terms of the Ground Lease,
any Person owning, directly or indirectly, any interest in the Bonds or any nominee or designee of any
of them and their agents and attorneys shall have the right to become the purchaser at any sale made
pursuant to the provisions of this Deed of Trust and shall have the right to credit upon the amount of the
bid made therefor the amount payable to it out of the net proceeds of such sale. All other sales shall be,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, on a cash basis. Recitals contained in any conveyance to any
purchaser at any sale made hereunder will conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters
therein stated, including, without limitation, nonpayment or non-performance of the Obligations and
advertisement and conduct of such sale in the manner provided herein or provided by law. Grantor does
hereby ratify and confirm all legal acts that Beneficiary, and/or the Owners (or the nominee or designee
of any of them) may do in carrying out the provisions of this Deed of Trust.
Section 6.3 Right to Subordinate. Beneficiary,at its option(as directed by Beneficiary), is
authorized to subordinate the lien of this Deed of Trust to the rights of any tenants, subtenants, or
occupants of the Hotel Unit, and the failure to make any such tenants, subtenants, or residents parties to
any such foreclosure or sale proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted by
Grantor to be,a defense to any proceedings instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Obligations. For the
avoidance of doubt, this Deed of Trust is subordinate and subject in all respects to the rights and
entitlements of the Operator under the Hotel Services Agreement (unless expressly provided otherwise
in the Hotel Services Agreement SNDA) and the Depository Control Agreement, to the extent provided
in such documents.
Section 6.4 Right to Preserve the Obligations. Subject to the terms of the Ground Lease,
Beneficiary shall, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, and as directed by Beneficiary, have the
option to proceed with foreclosure in satisfaction of any installment or part of the Obligations that has
not been paid or performed without declaring the whole of the Obligations as immediately mature
(without limitation of the foregoing, such option shall include the right to proceed with foreclosure in
satisfaction of the Bonds, without declaring the Bonds as immediately mature). Beneficiary shall have
the option, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, (a) to conduct such foreclosure and convey the
Mortgaged Premises to the purchaser thereof upon foreclosure free of any liability or responsibility for
the Bonds and/or any other unmatured part of the Obligations,but it is agreed that such foreclosure, if so
made,shall not in any manner relieve Grantor from liability for the payment to the holders thereof of the
unmatured part of the Obligations; or (b) to conduct such foreclosure subject to all or any part of the
unmatured part of the Obligations, and it is agreed that such foreclosure, if so made, shall not in any
manner affect the unmatured part of the Obligations, but as to such unmatured part of the Obligations,
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 29
ACTIVE 48008105v7
(i)this Deed of Trust and the Indenture shall remain in full force and effect just as though no foreclosure
had been made,and(ii)several foreclosure sales may be made without exhausting the right of foreclosure
or the power of sale as to any such unmatured part of the Obligations; provided, however, that Grantor
shall never have any right to require the acceleration of less than all the Obligations, or the sale of the
Mortgaged Premises subject to (or not subject to) all or any portion of the Obligations, but Beneficiary
(as directed by Beneficiary)shall have the sole right,at its sole election,to conduct such foreclosure sale
subject to (or not subject to) all or any portion of the Obligations as herein above provided.
Section 6.5 Right to Discontinue Proceedings. If Beneficiary shall have proceeded to
enforce any right or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure, entry, or otherwise and such
proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or such proceedings shall have
resulted in a final determination adverse to Beneficiary, then and in every such case Grantor and
Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, power, and
remedies of Beneficiary shall continue as if no such proceedings had occurred or had been taken.
Section 6.6 Notices to Third Parties. Beneficiary and/or any Owner shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to notify franchisors or ground lessors, including the City, of any default under
this Deed of Trust or any Event of Default or any exercise of remedies by Beneficiary hereunder, and
Beneficiary and/or any Owner shall have the right,but not the obligation, to notify other third parties of
any default under this Deed of Trust or any Event of Default or exercise of remedies by Beneficiary
hereunder, whether or not Beneficiary and/or any such Owner has agreed with any franchisor, ground
lessor, or other third party to provide such notice.
Section 6.7 Occupancy After Foreclosure. Subject to Beneficiary's right to subordinate as
set forth in Section 6.3 above and to the rights and entitlements of the Operator under the Hotel Services
Agreement (unless expressly provided otherwise in the Hotel Services Agreement SNDA) and the
Depository Control Agreement, if there is a foreclosure sale hereunder and at the time of such sale
Grantor or Grantor's representatives, successors,or assigns or any other persons claiming any interest in
the Mortgaged Premises by,through, or under Grantor is occupying or using the Mortgaged Premises or
any part thereof, each and all shall, at the option of Beneficiary or the purchaser at such sale,as the case
may be, immediately become the tenant of the purchaser at such sale, which tenancy shall be a tenancy
from day-to-day, terminable at the will of either landlord or tenant, at a reasonable rental per day based
upon the value of the Mortgaged Premises occupied, such rental to be due daily to purchaser. If the
tenant fails to surrender possession of said property upon the exercise of such option,the purchaser shall
be entitled to institute and maintain an eviction proceeding before the appropriate court of the county
and state in which the Mortgaged Premises, or any part thereof, are located and an action in forcible
detainer shall lie. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deed of Trust and provided the Hotel
Services Agreement has not previously expired or terminated, if any foreclosure purchaser shall acquire
title to the Mortgaged Premises (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any person taking title by non-
judicial remedies or by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or a similar method), unless expressly
provided otherwise in the Hotel Services Agreement or the SNDA, such foreclosure purchaser shall (i)
either(a) assume the rights and obligations of the Owner under the Hotel Services Agreement and shall
agree that the Hotel Services Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms following such assumption or(b) enter into a new Hotel Services Agreement with Hyatt upon the
same terms and conditions contained in the Hotel Services Agreement,except that the term thereof would
be the remaining term under the Hotel Services Agreement from the date of the execution of such new
agreement,subject,however,to any then unexercised extension or renewal rights and(ii)otherwise agree

PAGE 30
ACTIVE 48008905v7
that the rights and obligations of the parties under the Hotel Services Agreement shall not be disturbed
by the foreclosure sale or such foreclosure purchaser.
Section 6.8 Non-Waiver. It is expressly agreed that (a) no waiver by Beneficiary of any
Event of Default on the part of Grantor or breach of any of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or any
Transaction Document shall be considered a waiver of any other or subsequent Event of Default or
breach, and no delay or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers herein granted shall
be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers,and likewise no exercise or enforcement of any rights
or powers hereunder shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such right and power
may be exercised from time to time; (b) any failure by Beneficiary to insist upon the strict performance
by Grantor of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of any Transaction Document shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of any of the terms and provisions hereof or thereof,and Beneficiary,notwithstanding any
such failure,shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any and all
of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust, and the other Transaction Documents; (c) neither
Grantor nor any other person now or hereafter obligated for the payment and performance of the whole
or any part of the Obligations shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of the failure of Beneficiary
to comply with any request of Grantor, or of any other person so obligated, to take action to foreclose
this Deed of Trust or otherwise enforce any of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or of any of the
Obligations secured by this Deed of Trust,or by reason of the release,regardless of consideration,of the
whole or any part of the security held for the Obligations, or by reason of the subordination in whole or
in part by Beneficiary of the lien, security interest, or rights evidenced hereby, or by reason of any
election by Beneficiary to foreclose this Deed of Trust unencumbered by any unmatured part of the
Obligations, or by reason of any agreement or stipulation with any subsequent owner or owners of the
Mortgaged Premises extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of the Obligations or this
Deed of Trust without first having obtained the consent of Grantor or such other person, and in the latter
event, Grantor and all such other persons shall continue to be liable to make such payments according to
the terms of any such agreement of extension or modification unless expressly released and discharged
in writing by Beneficiary; (d) regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or
consent by the holder of any subordinate lien or security interest on the Mortgaged Premises,Beneficiary
may release the obligation of anyone at any time liable for any of the Obligations or any part of the
security held for the Obligations and may extend the time of payment or otherwise modify the terms of
the Obligations and/or this Deed of Trust without, as to the security or the remainder thereof, in anywise
impairing or affecting the lien or security interest of this Deed of Trust or the priority of such lien or
security interest,as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations as it may be so extended
or modified, over any subordinate lien or security interest; (e) the holder of any subordinate lien or
security interest shall have no right to terminate any lease affecting the Mortgaged Premises,whether or
not such lease be subordinate to this Deed of Trust; and (f) Beneficiary may resort for the payment and
performance of the Obligations, upon an Event of Default, to any security therefor held by Beneficiary

. To the full extent Grantor may do so under applicable law, Grantor agrees that Grantor will
not at any time insist upon,plead, claim, or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in
force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, or redemption,and Grantor, for
Grantor and Grantor's representatives, successors, and assigns, and for any and all persons ever
claiming any interest in the Mortgaged Premises, to the maximum extent permitted by law, hereby
waives and releases all rights of redemption,valuation, appraisement, stay of execution,notice of
intention to mature, or declare due the whole or any part of the Obligations, notice of election to mature
or declare due the whole or any part of the Obligations and all rights to a marshaling of the assets of
Grantor, including the Mortgaged Premises, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation in the event of
foreclosure of the liens and security interests hereby created. Grantor shall not have or assert any right
under any statute or rule of law pertaining to the marshaling of assets, sale in inverse order of
alienation, the exemption of homestead, the administration of estates of decedents or other matters
whatever to defeat,reduce,or affect the right of Beneficiary under the terms of this Deed of Trust to a
sale of the Mortgaged Premises for the collection of the Obligations without any prior or different
resort for collection, or the right of Beneficiary under the terms of this Deed of Trust to the payment
and performance of such Obligations out of the proceeds of sale of the Mortgaged Premises in
preference to every other claimant whatever. If any law referred to in this paragraph and now in force,
of which Grantor or Grantor's representatives, successors, and assigns and such other persons claiming
any interest in the Mortgaged Premises might take advantage despite this paragraph, shall hereafter be
repealed or cease to be in force, such law shall not thereafter be deemed to preclude the application of
this Section.
To the extent that Grantor may lawfully do so, Grantor hereby expressly waives any right
pertaining to the right of Beneficiary to the payment and performance of the Obligations out of the
proceeds of sale of the Mortgaged Premises in preference to every other person and claimant.
Alternatively, in the event the waiver provided for in the immediately preceding paragraph is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the following shall be the basis for
the finder of fact's determination of the fair market value of the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises as of the
date of the foreclosure sale in proceedings governed by the applicable statute (as amended from time to
time): (i) the subject property shall be valued in an "AS IS AND WHERE IS, WITH ALL FAULTS"
condition as of the date of the foreclosure sale, without any assumption or expectation that it will be
repaired or improved in any manner before a resale after foreclosure; (ii) the valuation shall be based
upon an assumption that the foreclosure purchaser desires a resale of the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises
for cash promptly(but no later than 12 months)following the foreclosure sale;(iii)all reasonable closing
costs customarily borne by the seller in commercial real estate transactions should be deducted from the
gross fair market value of the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises, including, without limitation, brokerage
commissions, title insurance, a survey of the subject property, tax prorations, attorneys' fees, and
marketing costs; (iv) the gross fair market value of the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises shall be further
discounted to account for any estimated holding costs associated with maintaining it pending sale,
including, without limitation, utilities expenses, property management fees, taxes, and assessments (to
the extent not accounted for in(iii)above),and other maintenance,operational,and ownership expenses;
and (v) any expert opinion testimony given or considered in connection with a determination of the fair
market value of the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises must be given by persons having at least five years'
experience in appraising property and interests therein similar

ACTIVE 48008105v7
to the subject property and the foreclosed Mortgaged Premises who have conducted and prepared a
complete written appraisal of each taking into consideration the factors set forth above.
In addition to the above, Grantor hereby waives any defense or benefit that might otherwise be
derived from comparable provisions of any other laws for the benefit of sureties and grantors.
Section 6.10 Renewal and Extension. Beneficiary, without notice, may release any part of
the Mortgaged Premises, or any person liable on the Obligations, without in any way affecting the lien
hereof upon any portion of the Mortgaged Premises not expressly released,and may agree with any party
obligated on the Obligations, or having any interest in the Mortgaged Premises, to renew and extend the
time or manner of payment and performance of all or any part of the Obligations. Such agreement shall
not in any way release or impair the lien hereof, but shall renew and extend the lien hereof against the
Mortgaged Premises without altering or affecting the priority of the lien created by this Deed of Trust in
favor of any junior encumbrance, mortgagee, or purchaser, or any Person acquiring an interest in the
Mortgaged Premises, and this Deed of Trust shall remain first and superior to any liens that may be
placed thereon, or that may be fixed, given, or imposed by law thereon after the execution of this
instrument notwithstanding any such extension of the time of payment or the release of a portion of said
property from this lien.
Section 6.11 Grantor Not Released. If Beneficiary approves a future conveyance of the
Mortgaged Premises, or any part thereof, and title becomes vested in a person other than Grantor,
Beneficiary may, without notice to Grantor, deal with such successor or successors in interest with
reference to this Deed of Trust and to the Bonds in the same manner as with Grantor without in any way
vitiating or discharging Grantor's liability hereunder or upon the Obligations. No sale of the Mortgaged
Premises and no forbearance on the part of Beneficiary and no extension of the time for the payment and
performance of the Obligations, given by Beneficiary, shall operate to release, modify,change, or affect
the original liability of Grantor, either in whole or in part.
Section 6.12 Acceptance on Account. Acceptance by Beneficiary of any payment in an
amount less than the amount then due on the Obligations shall be deemed an acceptance on account only,
and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be an Event of Default; at any
time thereafter, and until the entire amount then due on the Obligations has been paid,Beneficiary shall
be entitled to exercise all rights conferred upon it in this Deed of Trust.
ARTICLE 7. SECURITY INTEREST
Section 7.1 Security Interest. To further secure the Obligations, Grantor hereby grants a
security interest to Beneficiary (for the benefit of the Owners) in and to the Income and all Personal
Property Collateral herein above described, subject in all respects to the rights and entitlements of the
Operator under the Hotel Services Agreement(unless expressly provided otherwise in the Hotel Services
Agreement SNDA) and the Depository Control Agreement, to the extent provided in such documents.
This document shall constitute a security agreement as well as a deed of trust and a mortgage. The
following applies with respect to collateral:
(a) In addition to and cumulative of any other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust,
Beneficiary may, upon an Event of Default hereunder, proceed under the Code as now adopted
and existing and as it may hereafter be amended or succeeded, as to all or any
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PACE 33
ACTIVE 48008105v7
part of the Personal Property Collateral and shall have and may exercise with respect to all or
any part of the Personal Property Collateral all of the rights, remedies, and powers of a secured
party under the Code, including,without limitation,the right and power to repossess,retain, and
sell, at public or private sale or sales, or otherwise dispose of, lease, or utilize the Personal
Property Collateral or any part thereof and to dispose of the proceeds in any manner authorized
or permitted under the applicable provisions of the Code, and to apply the proceeds thereof
toward payment of Beneficiary's attorneys' fees and other expenses and costs of pursuing,
searching for, receiving, taking, keeping, storing, advertising, and selling the Personal Property
Collateral thereby incurred by Beneficiary, and toward payment and performance of the
Obligations in such order and manner as Beneficiary may elect consistent with the provisions of
the Code. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to impair or limit any other right or power
to which Beneficiary may be entitled at law or in equity.
(b) Among the rights of Beneficiary upon an Event of Default, and without
limitation, Beneficiary shall have the right(but not the obligation)without being deemed guilty
of trespass and without liability for damages thereby occasioned, (i) to enter upon any premises
where said collateral may be situated and take possession of the Personal Property Collateral,or
render it unusable, or dispose of the Personal Property Collateral on Grantor's premises, and
Grantor agrees not to resist or to interfere, and (ii) to take any action deemed necessary or
appropriate or desirable by Beneficiary and at Beneficiary's option, and in its discretion, to
repair, refurbish, or otherwise prepare the Personal Property Collateral for sale, lease, or other
use or disposition as herein authorized. Beneficiary may at Beneficiary's discretion require
Grantor to assemble the Personal Property Collateral and make it available to Beneficiary at a
place designated by Beneficiary that is reasonably convenient to both parties.
(c) Upon an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall give Grantor notice, by certified
mail, postage prepaid, of the time and place of any public sale of any of the Personal Property
Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof is to
be made by sending notice to Grantor at the address of Grantor set forth below at least 10 days
before the time of the sale or other disposition, which provisions for notice Grantor and
Beneficiary agree are reasonable; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude
Beneficiary from proceeding as to both immovable and movable property in accordance with
Beneficiary's rights and remedies in respect to immovable property as provided in the Code.
(d) To the extent such may now or hereafter be permitted under laws of the state in
which the Mortgaged Premises are located, Beneficiary is authorized to execute and file
Financing Statements and Continuation Statements under the Code with respect to the Personal
Property Collateral without joinder of Grantor in such execution or filing. Grantor shall execute
and deliver to Beneficiary such Financing Statements, Continuation Statements, and other
documents relating to the Personal Property Collateral as Beneficiary may reasonably request
from time to time to preserve,perfect and maintain the priority of the security interest created by
this Deed of Trust and shall pay to Beneficiary on demand any expenses and reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the preparation, execution, and filing
of this Deed of Trust and of any Financing
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 34
ACTIVE 48008105v7
Statements, Continuation Statements, partial releases, termination statements, or other
documents necessary or desirable to continue or confirm Beneficiary's security interest or any
modification thereof. In addition,Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary physical possession of the
Personal Property Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by possession. This
document, and any photographic, or other reproduction of this document may be filed by
Beneficiary and shall be sufficient as a financing statement. All or part of the Personal Property
Collateral is or is to become Fixtures, crops, timber,or minerals on the real estate constituting a
portion of the Mortgaged Premises,but this statement shall not impair or limit the effectiveness
of this document as a Security Agreement or Financing Statement, for other purposes, and this
Deed of Trust shall constitute a Fixture, crops, timber, and mineral financing statement and, as
such, shall be filed for record in the real estate records of the counties in which the Hotel Unit
covered hereby is located. Grantor shall not change Grantor's name without the prior express
written consent of Beneficiary. The record owner of the fee title to the Hotel Unit is the City,
the record owner of the leasehold estate in the Hotel Unit created by the Ground Lease is the
Grantor.
(e) THIS DEED OF TRUST SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS A FINANCING
STATEMENT FILED AS A FIXTURE FILING WITH RESPECT TO ALL GOODS
CONSTITUTING A PART OF THE PERSONAL PROPERTY WHICH ARE OR ARE TO

Collateral free of any adverse claim,security interest,or encumbrance, and Grantor shall defend
the Personal Property Collateral against all claims and demands of any person at any time
claiming the same or any interest therein. Grantor has not heretofore signed any Financing
Statement and no Financing Statement signed by Grantor is now on file in any public office
except those statements,true and correct copies of which have been delivered to Beneficiary. So
long as any amount remains unpaid on the Obligations, Grantor shall not execute and there shall
not be filed in any public office any such Financing Statement(s)affecting the Personal Property
Collateral.
(g) The security interest granted herein shall not be construed or deemed to
constitute Beneficiary as a mortgagee in possession of the Mortgaged Premises so as to obligate
Beneficiary to lease the Mortgaged Premises or attempt to do the same, or to take any action,
incur any expenses, or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability with respect to the
Mortgaged Premises or any part thereof or otherwise.
To the extent that any of the Personal Property Collateral is not subject to the Code, Grantor hereby
assigns and pledges to Beneficiary all of Grantor's right, title, and interest in the Personal Property
Collateral to secure the Obligations. Release of the lien of this Deed of Trust shall automatically
terminate this assignment and pledge.
ARTICLE 8.USURY
Section 8.1 Excess Interest. The invalidity,or unenforceability in particular circumstances,
of any provision of this Deed of Trust shall not extend beyond such provision or such circumstances and
no other provision of this instrument shall be affected thereby. As used herein, the term "Maximum
Legal Rate of Interest" shall mean and refer to the maximum rate of nonusurious interest, if any, that
Beneficiary may from time to time charge Grantor under applicable law and in regard to which Grantor
would be prevented successfully from raising the claim or defense of usury under applicable law as now,
or to the extent permitted by law,as may hereafter be,in effect(said law permitting the highest rate being
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PACE 36
ACTIVE 48008105v7
herein referred to as the "Interest Law"). It is the intention of Grantor and Beneficiary to conform
strictly to the Interest Law applicable to this transaction. Accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary in this Deed of Trust, the Bonds or in any of the documents securing
payment and performance of the Obligations or otherwise relating thereto, the aggregate of all interest
and any other charges or consideration constituting interest under applicable Interest Law that is taken,
reserved,contracted for,charged,or received under this Deed of Trust,or under any of the other aforesaid
agreements or otherwise in connection with this transaction shall under no circumstances exceed the
maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law applicable to this transaction. If any excess of
interest in such respect is provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided for, in this Deed of
Trust,the Bonds or in any other Bond Documents,then in such event(a)the provisions of this paragraph
shall govern and control, (b) neither Grantor nor Grantor's heirs, legal representatives, successors, or
assigns or any other party liable for the payment or performance of the Obligations shall be obligated to
pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest
allowed by the Interest Law applicable to this transaction, (c)any excess shall be deemed a mistake and
canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Obligations by Beneficiary(or if
the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, refunded to Grantor), and (d) the effective
rate of interest shall be automatically subject to reduction to the Maximum Legal Rate of Interest allowed
under such Interest Law as now or hereafter construed by courts of appropriate jurisdiction. All sums
paid or agreed to be paid Beneficiary for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Obligations secured
hereby shall, to the extent permitted by the Interest Law applicable to this transaction, be amortized,
prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full term of the Bonds. To the extent that federal law
permits Beneficiary to contract for, charge, or receive a greater amount of interest, Beneficiary will rely
on federal law instead of the applicable state law for purposes of determining the Maximum Legal Rate
of Interest. In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code(which regulates
certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the any of the
Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan
Documents, it is not the intention of Beneficiary to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not
accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall control all agreements between Beneficiary and Grantor.
ARTICLE 9.INDEMNIFICATION
Section 9.1 General Indemnity. Grantor hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless Beneficiary, the Deed of Trust Trustee and their respective directors, officers, and duly
authorized agents (collectively, the"Indemnitees") from and against:

any Person if the claim, demand, or cause of action directly or indirectly relates to (i) a claim,
demand, or cause of action that the Person has or asserts against or arises in connection with the
Hotel Unit, the Condominium Project, any Additions or Alterations, or Grantor during the time
that Grantor owns, manages, controls or is in possession of the Mortgaged Premises; (ii) the
payment of any commission, charge, or brokerage fee incurred in connection with the
Obligations; or(iii) any claim or cause of action of any kind by any Person which would have
the effect of denying Beneficiary, or the Owners the

full benefit or protection of any provision of any Transaction Document(excluding charges and
assessments by any Governmental Agency imposed upon Beneficiary in the normal course of
Beneficiary's business); and
(b) All liabilities, losses, expenses, and other costs (including court costs and
attorneys' fees, disbursements, and costs of litigation) incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of
any claim, demand, or cause of action described in subparagraph(a).

INDIRECTLY LIMITED, PREJUDICED, IMPAIRED, OR ELIMINATED IN ANY WAY BY ANY
FINDING OR ALLEGATION THAT INDEMNITEE'S CONDUCT IS ACTIVE, PASSIVE,
NEGLIGENT, OR SUBJECT TO ANY OTHER CLASSIFICATION OR THAT INDEMNITEE IS

OF ANY KIND FOR ANY ACT OR OMISSION BY GRANTOR OR ANY OTHER PERSON.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, GRANTOR SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO

protect, defend (with counsel approved by Beneficiary) and save the Indemnitees, harmless from and
against all claims(including,without limitation,third party claims for personal injury or real or personal

judgments, damages, punitive damages, penalties, fines, interest, taxes, assessments, liabilities
(including, without limitation, sums paid in settlements of claims), losses of every kind and character,

attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in enforcing the indemnification contained in this Section 9.2 or
collecting any sums due hereunder and costs of litigation),consultant fees,and expert fees,together with
all other costs and expenses of any kind or nature(collectively, the"Costs") that arise from or relate to,
directly or indirectly, any Indemnified Matter (as hereinafter defined), REGARDLESS OF THE
NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE OR ANY THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY. If any
Indemnitee shall assert any Costs against Grantor, other than those arising from claims by third parties,
Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, such Owner, or such other Indemnitee, as applicable, the total of all
such Costs suffered or incurred by such Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of written demand
therefor together with reasonable documentation thereof.
Section 9.3 Certain Indemnified Matters. As used herein the term"Indemnified Matter"

Premises, any (a) fraud or negligent or willful misrepresentation by Grantor or any guarantor of the

to Grantor to pay Taxes or assessments or charges for labor or materials or other charges that can create

Mortgaged Premises or any interest therein or in Grantor in violation of the terms and provisions of this
Deed of Trust, or the Indenture; (e) waste of the Hotel Unit; (f) all court costs and all reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by Beneficiary arising from or in response to any act or omission
of Grantor which could reasonably be expected to impair any security for(i) the payment of Grantor's
obligations under the Bond Documents, or (ii) the performance and discharge of Grantor's obligations
under the Bond Documents; and (g) any other failure of Grantor to perform its obligations with respect
to the Hotel Unit, except to the extent that such failure to perform is due to insufficient Gross Revenues,
which insufficiency is not the result of Grantor's actions under Section 9.3(a)or(cc).
Section 9.4 Indemnification Procedures; Third Party Claims. All claims for
indemnification against any and all claims and actions by third parties against Beneficiary or any other
Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article 9 shall be asserted and
resolved as follows:
(a) An Indemnitee shall,following the assertion of any claim or the commencement
of any action by any third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought by such Indemnitee
from Grantor under this Article 9,notify Grantor in writing of such assertion or commencement
together with a statement of such information respecting any of the foregoing as it shall have. If
any such claim is asserted or action commenced of which such Indemnitee shall have given
notice to Grantor, Grantor may, within 10 days following receipt of such notice, notify such
Indemnitee in writing of its election to (i) make immediate payment of such claim, or (ii) at
Grantor's expense, assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnitee.
Upon such election, Grantor shall have full control of the defense, including any compromise or
settlement;provided that any settlement requiring non-monetary consideration must be approved
in advance by such Indemnitee,which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed.
(b) If Grantor fails to pay such claim or to elect to defend such claim within said 10
day period or, having elected to defend such claim, fails to diligently and promptly defend or
settle the claim, then such Indemnitee, after the expiration of said 10 day period, shall have the
right to pay such claim or to defend, in each instance at the sole cost and expense of Grantor,
such claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be conducted by such
Indemnitee to a final conclusion or settlement. Such Indemnitee shall have full control of such
defense and proceedings and the Grantor shall be bound by the result obtained with respect
thereto by such Indemnitee unless Indemnitee shall have failed to diligently defend such claim.
Grantor shall, at the sole cost and expense of Grantor, cooperate with such Indemnitee and its
counsel in contesting any claim that such Indemnitee is contesting,or, if appropriate and related
to the claim in question, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the claim or
any cross-complaint against any person.
(c) Should Grantor elect to assume the defense of any claim pursuant to Section
9.3(a) above, Grantor shall use counsel that is acceptable to such Indemnitee in its reasonable
judgment. If such Indemnitee shall determine, in its reasonable judgment, that
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PACE 39
ACTIVE 48008105v7
counsel chosen by Grantor is unacceptable, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action. Such Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in such
defense, and the fees and expenses of both Grantor's and such Indemnitee's counsel shall be at
the expense of Grantor. If the counsel chosen by Grantor should be, in such Indemnitee's
reasonable judgment, acceptable to such Indemnitee,but such Indemnitee nevertheless employs
separate counsel in any such action, such Indemnitee's counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnitee.
(d) The indemnification to which this Article 9 relates shall be made by periodic
payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense,within 30 days
of the date on which bills are received or loss, damage, liability, cost, or expense is incurred.
(e) All Indemnitees(other than the Beneficiary)shall be third party beneficiaries of
the provisions of this Deed of Trust granting indemnification rights to such other Indemnitees.
Section 9.5 Payment or Compromise of Claim. At any time after the commencement of
the defense of any claim, Grantor may request the subject Indemnitee, as the case may be, to agree in
writing to the abandonment of such contest or to the payment or compromise by such Indemnitee of the
asserted claim upon Grantor's agreement to provide funds for such payment, whereupon such action
shall be taken unless such Indemnitee determines that the contest should be continued, and so notifies
Grantor in writing within 15 days of such request from Grantor. If such Indemnitee determines that the
contest should be continued, Grantor shall be liable hereunder only to the extent of the amount that the
other party to the contested claim had agreed unconditionally to accept in payment or compromise as of
the time Grantor made its request therefor to such Indemnitee.
ARTICLE 10.MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.1 Partial Invalidity. If the lien of this Deed of Trust is invalid or unenforceable
as to any part of the Obligations secured hereby, or if the lien is invalid or unenforceable as to any part

Beneficiary's election, without waiving or affecting any of its rights hereunder or under the Bond

the Hotel Unit not so released. So long as any portion of the Indebtedness shall remain unpaid,if Grantor

Unit,the lien,assignments and security interests of this Deed of Trust shall be spread to cover Grantor's
fee title or leasehold title under the Ground Lease to the Hotel Unit,as the case may be,and said fee title
or leasehold title shall be deemed to be included in the Mortgaged Premises automatically, and without
the need for action by any party;however,in such event,Grantor agrees to execute any and all documents
or instruments necessary to subject its fee title or leasehold title to the Hotel Unit to the lien of this Deed
of Trust, in form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary.

PAGE 44
ACTIVE 48008105v7
trustees successively until the Indebtedness finally has been paid in full or until the Hotel Unit is sold
hereunder. If the Beneficiary is a corporation or other entity and such appointment is executed in its
behalf by an officer of such corporation or other entity,such appointment shall be conclusively presumed
to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board
of directors, other governance board or any superior officer of the corporation or other entity. Upon the
making of any such appointment and designation, all of the estate and title of the Deed of Trust Trustee
in the Hotel Unit shall vest in the named successor or substitute trustee and thereupon he shall succeed
to and shall hold, possess and execute all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein
conferred upon the Deed of Trust Trustee;but,nevertheless,upon the written request of the Beneficiary
or of the successor or substitute trustee,the Deed of Trust Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver
an instrument transferring to such successor or substitute Deed of Trust Trustee all of the estate and title
in the Hotel Unit of the Deed of Trust Trustee so ceasing to act, together with all the rights, powers,
privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon the Deed of Trust Trustee, and shall assign,
transfer and deliver any of the properties and moneys held by said Deed of Trust Trustee hereunder to
said successor or substitute Deed of Trust Trustee. All references herein to the Deed of Trust Trustee

and designated as herein provided) from time to time acting hereunder. Grantor hereby ratifies and
confirms any and all acts which the herein named Deed of Trust Trustee or her successor or successors,
substitute or substitutes, in this trust, lawfully shall do by virtue hereof.
Section 11.2 Liability and Indemnification of Deed of Trust Trustee. The Deed of Trust
Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment or act done by the Deed of Trust Trustee in good
faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever, except for the
Deed of Trust Trustee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Deed of Trust Trustee shall have
the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or
proposed to be taken by him or her hereunder, believed by him or her in good faith to be genuine. All
moneys received by the Deed of Trust Trustee, until used or applied as herein provided, shall be held in

Section 12.2 Waiver of Deficiency Statute.
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 45
ACTIVE 48008105v7
(a) Waiver. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.14(a) and (b), in the event an
interest in any of the Mortgaged Premises is foreclosed upon pursuant to a judicial or nonjudicial
foreclosure sale, Grantor agrees as follows: notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 51.003,
51.0041 and 51.005 of the Texas Property Code(as the same may be amended from time to time),
and to the extent permitted by law, Grantor agrees that Beneficiary shall be entitled to seek a
deficiency judgment from Grantor equal to the difference between the amount owing on the
Bonds and the amount for which the Mortgaged Premises was sold pursuant to judicial or
nonjudicial foreclosure sale. Grantor expressly recognizes that this section constitutes a waiver
of the above-cited provisions of the Property Code which would otherwise permit Grantor and
other persons against whom recovery of deficiencies is sought or Guarantor independently(even
absent the initiation of deficiency proceedings against them) to present competent evidence of
the fair market value of the Mortgaged Premises as of the date of the foreclosure sale and offset
against any deficiency the amount by which the foreclosure sale price is determined to be less
than such fair market value. Grantor further recognizes and agrees that this waiver creates an
irrebuttable presumption that the foreclosure sale price is equal to the fair market value of the
Mortgaged Premises for purposes of calculating deficiencies owed by Grantor, Guarantor, and
others against whom recovery of a deficiency is sought.
(b) Alternative to Waiver. Alternatively, in the event the waiver provided for in
subsection(a) above is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the
following shall be the basis for the finder of fact's determination of the fair market value of the
Mortgaged Premises as of the date of the foreclosure sale in proceedings governed by Sections
51.003, 51.004 and 51.005 of the Texas Property Code(as amended from time to time): (i) the
Mortgaged Premises shall be valued in an"as is"condition as of the date of the foreclosure sale,
without any assumption or expectation that the Mortgaged Premises will be repaired or improved
in any manner before a resale of the Mortgaged Premises after foreclosure;(ii)the valuation shall
be based upon an assumption that the foreclosure purchaser desires a resale of the Mortgaged
Premises for cash promptly(but no later than twelve(12)months)following the foreclosure sale;
(iii) all reasonable closing costs customarily borne by the seller in commercial real estate
transactions should be deducted from the gross fair market value of the Mortgaged Premises,
including,without limitation,brokerage commissions,title insurance,a survey of the Mortgaged
Premises,tax prorations, attorneys' fees, and marketing costs; (iv)the gross fair market value of
the Mortgaged Premises shall be further discounted to account for any estimated holding costs
associated with maintaining the Mortgaged Premises pending sale,including,without limitation,
utilities expenses,property management fees,taxes and assessments(to the extent not accounted
for in (iii) above), and other maintenance, operational and ownership expenses; and (v) any
expert opinion testimony given or considered in connection with a determination of the fair
market value of the Mortgaged Premises must be given by persons having at least five(5)years'
experience in appraising property similar to the Mortgaged Premises and who have conducted
and prepared a complete written appraisal of the Mortgaged Premises taking into consideration
the factors set forth above.
ARTICLE 13. ADDITIONAL GROUND LEASE PROVISIONS

alter or amend the Ground Lease in any respect, either orally or in writing. Subject to the terms of the
Indenture, Grantor does hereby expressly release,assign,relinquish and surrender unto Beneficiary all
its right,power and authority to terminate, cancel, acquiesce in the rejection of, consent or object to
any attempted sale or transfer of the City's interest under the Ground Lease, if any, in the Hotel Unit
(including the Improvements) free and clear of the Ground Lease, or modify, change, supplement, alter
or amend the Ground Lease in any respect, either orally or in writing, at any time, including in the
event of the bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency of Grantor or the City, and any attempt on the
part of Grantor to exercise any such right without the consent of Beneficiary shall be null and void as
to the Beneficiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a threatened termination of the
Ground Lease due to the bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency of Grantor,Grantor shall, at
Beneficiary's election, absolutely assign to Beneficiary, in lieu of such termination, all of Grantor's
right, title and interest in and to such Ground Lease and any claims arising in any respect therefrom.

Insurance Trustee under and as defined in the Condominium Declaration, as the case may be)maintains,
with an insurance carrier acceptable to Beneficiary,a"master"or"blanket"policy on the Condominium
Project that is reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary and that provides insurance coverage in the amounts,
for the periods and against the hazards required by this Deed of Trust, then Grantor's obligation to
maintain hazard insurance on the Mortgaged Premises under the terms of this Deed of Trust is deemed
satisfied to the extent that the required coverage is provided by the Owners' Association policy (or
Grantor's, as Insurance Trustee under and as defined in the Condominium Declaration, policy, as the
case may be). Notwithstanding anything in the Condominium Declaration to the contrary, insurance
proceeds shall be used and applied by Beneficiary as provided for in this Deed of Trust. Grantor shall
give Beneficiary prompt notice of any lapse in required insurance coverage. In the event of a distribution
of hazard insurance proceeds in lieu of restoration or repair following a loss to the Mortgaged Premises,
any proceeds payable to Grantor are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Beneficiary for application by
Beneficiary as provided in this Deed of Trust. Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary, as security for the
obligations secured by this Deed of Trust, all of its right to vote on, or consent to, any proposed use of

reasonable to ensure that, in addition to the liability insurance required under this Deed of Trust, the

liability insurance policy acceptable in form, amount and extent of coverage to Beneficiary.

consequential,payable to Grantor in connection with any Condemnation or other taking of all or any part
of the Mortgaged Premises, or for any conveyance in lieu of Condemnation, are hereby assigned and
shall be paid to Beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything in the Condominium Declaration to the contrary,
such proceeds shall be applied by Beneficiary as provided in this Deed of Trust.
Section 14.5 Beneficiary's Prior Consent. Grantor shall not, except after notice to
Beneficiary and with Beneficiary's prior written consent, consent to:
(1) Abandonment or termination of the Condominium Project, except for abandonment or
termination required by law in the case of substantial destruction by fire or other casualty or in
the case of a taking by Condemnation or eminent domain;
(2) Any material amendment to any provision of the Condominium Constituent Documents,
including, but not limited to, any amendment that would change the percentage interest of the

ownership of the Hotel Unit or the City Facilities Unit, and irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as its
attorney and proxy to cast its votes at all times permitted or required pursuant
LEASEHOLD DEED OF TRUST,ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS,SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
PAGE 48
ACTIVE 48008905v7
thereto at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If
Beneficiary's representative fails to attend a duly called meeting either in person or by proxy, then
Grantor may cast its votes as though this power had not been granted to Beneficiary. It is agreed that
this power is coupled with an interest and may not be revoked by Grantor until this Deed of Trust is fully
satisfied and reconveyed. Grantor will, from time to time,execute and deliver to Beneficiary such other
proxies as Beneficiary deems necessary or advisable to appoint Beneficiary its proxy hereunder. Grantor
agrees that it will cause copies of all notices of meetings and other notices required or permitted under
the Condominium Constituent Documents to be sent to Beneficiary promptly after receipt thereof by
Grantor and so as to provide Beneficiary with reasonable notice of the time, place and subject of any
such meeting.
Section 14.7 Remedies. If Grantor does not pay condominium dues and assessments with
respect to the Condominium Project when due, Beneficiary may (but without obligation to do so) pay
them. Any amounts disbursed by Beneficiary under this subsection 14.7 shall become additional
Indebtedness of Grantor from the date of disbursement at the rate of interest from time to time applicable
to the Bonds and shall be payable,with interest, 10 days after written notice from Beneficiary to Grantor

and other benefits paid or payable by parties, including the Assignor, to all other leases and
subleases now or hereafter in effect, pursuant to which any person, including the Assignor, is
now or hereafter granted a possessory interest in, or right to use or occupy all or any portion of
the City Facilities Unit, and every modification, amendment, or other agreement relating to such
lease, sublease, and other agreement, and every warranty and guarantee of the performance and
observance of the covenants, conditions, and agreements to be performed and observed by the
Assignor and the other party thereto, whether before or after the filing by or against Assignor of
any petition for relief under any Creditors' Rights Laws (including, without limitation, the City
Facilities Lease, collectively, the "Leases") for using, leasing, licensing, possessing, operating
from, residing in, selling or otherwise enjoying all or any portion of the City Facilities Unit, in
accordance with the Texas Assignment of Rents Act (Texas Property Code, Section 64), as the
same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time ("TARA"). All provisions
2
related to the assignment of Rents are subject to the terms, provisions, and conditions of TARA.
To the extent that specific terms and requirements of this Assignment conflict with the specific
terms and requirements of TARA, (i) to the extent such terms and requirements of TARA may
be superseded by an agreement between the parties, the specific terms and requirements of this
Assignment hereby supersede such specific terms and requirements of TARA; and (ii) to the
extent that such terms and requirements of TARA cannot be superseded by an agreement
between the parties, the specific terms and requirements of TARA shall control, and the parties
further agree that all other terms and requirements of this Assignment shall not otherwise be
impaired or superseded thereby and shall remain in full force and effect. This Assignment is
intended to be a security instrument for purposes of TARA and the Assignor's obligations under
the Series 2021 Bonds shall be a secured obligation for purposes of TARA. Promptly upon
request by Trustee, Assignor agrees to execute and deliver such further assignments as Trustee
may from time to time require. Assignor and Trustee intend this assignment and grant of a
security interest in and to the Rents to be an assignment for security of the Assignor's obligations
under the Series 2021 Bonds. It is the intention of the Assignor that this Assignment create and
perfect a security interest in and to the Rents in favor of Trustee, which security interest shall be
effective as of the date of this Assignment.
(b) As part of the consideration for the Assignor's obligations under the Series
2021 Bonds, Assignor absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Trustee all of
Assignor's right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases (including the City Facilities
Lease), including Assignor's right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease,
or extend or terminate any such Lease. It is the intention of Assignor to establish a present,
absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Trustee of all of Assignor's right, title and
interest in, to and under the Leases.
2. Covenants of Assignor. Assignor hereby covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) faithfully to abide by, perform and discharge each and every obligation,
covenant and agreement that is to be performed by the Assignor under the Leases;
(b) at the sole cost and expense of Assignor, to enforce or secure the
performance of the obligations, covenants, conditions, and agreements of the Leases to which the
Assignor is the lessor to be performed by the lessees thereunder;
(c) not to terminate, modify or amend any of the Leases or any of the terms
thereof, or grant any concessions in connection therewith, either orally or in writing, or to accept
a surrender thereof,without the prior written consent of Trustee;
(d) simultaneously with receiving or giving of the same, to send to Trustee
copies of all notices of default and noncompliance received or given by Assignor to or from the
City under the City Facilities Lease or the lessees under any of the other Leases to which the
Assignor is the lessor or any guarantor thereof,
(e) to use due diligence to operate the City Facilities Unit, and, upon demand,
to confirm in writing the transfer and assignment to Trustee of any and all subsequent leases
upon all or any part of the City Facilities Unit, upon the terms and conditions herein contained,
3
and to make, execute and deliver to Trustee upon demand any and all instruments that may be
necessary or desirable to evidence such assignment, but the terms and provisions of this
Assignment shall apply to any such subsequent leases upon the City Facilities Unit, whether or
not such confirmation is given;
(f) at Assignor's sole cost and expense, to appear in and defend any action or
proceeding arising under, growing out of or in any manner connected with any of the Leases
hereby assigned, or the obligations, duties or liabilities of the lessor or lessee thereunder or any
guarantor thereof, and to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of Trustee, including, without
limitation, legal fees and disbursements in a reasonable sum, in any such action or proceeding in
which Trustee may appear;
(g) not to request, consent to, agree to or accept subordination of any of the
Leases to any mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance, or any other lease, now or hereafter
affecting all or any part of the City Facilities Unit, other than this Assignment;
(h) not to accept any payment of rent under any of the Leases for any part of
the City Facilities Unit for any period in advance of the period for which such rent is due and
payable; and
(i) not to make or execute any other assignment of leases, rents, issues,
income or profits from the City Facilities Unit or any part thereof during the term of this
Assignment.
3. Representations and Warranties of Assignor. Assignor hereby represents and
warrants to Trustee that:
(a) Assignor has not executed any prior assignment of Leases and/or Rents
with respect to the City Facilities Unit or any of the Leases, and Assignor is entitled to receive
Rents from the City Facilities Unit and to enjoy all other rights mentioned herein and Assignor
has free right to transfer to Trustee such rights, interests, powers and authorities as are herein
granted or conferred;
(b) Assignor has not performed any act or executed any instrument that might
prevent Trustee from exercising or obtaining the benefit of any of the terms and conditions
hereof,
(c) Assignor has not accepted Rents under any of the Leases for any part of
the City Facilities Unit for any period other than the current period for which Rents have already
become due and payable as of the date hereof, and there are no Leases except as have been
provided to Trustee affecting the City Facilities Unit;
(d) there is no breach or default now existing under any of the Leases;
(e) Assignor has provided Trustee true and correct copies of each of the
Leases and all modifications and amendments thereto;
4
(f) no lessee under the Leases to which the Assignor is the lessor has a
defense, setoff or counterclaim against Assignor and as of the date hereof, there are no charges,
liens, setoffs, off-sets, rebates, concessions, abatements, credits or deductions under such Leases
or otherwise, against Rents or other charges due or to become due thereunder, or claims by the
lessees thereunder against the enforcement of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or
conditions of such Leases or against Assignor in respect of such Leases; and
(g) all Rents due to date under the City Facilities Lease have been paid and
under the other Leases have been collected and no concession has been granted to any lessee
under such other Leases in the form of a waiver, release, reduction, discount or other alteration
of rent due or to become due.
(h) as of the date hereof, there are no Leases except as have been provided to
Trustee affecting the City Facilities Unit.
4. Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds. Assignor hereby collaterally assigns,
transfers, and sets over to Trustee for the benefit of the Owners all rights of Assignor to any
insurance or condemnation proceeds payable to Assignor under any policies of insurance or as a
result of any condemnation of the Condominium Project and which name or inure to the benefit
of Assignor. Assignor will, in good faith and with due diligence, file and prosecute what would
otherwise be Assignor's claim for any insurance or condemnation proceeds as a result of any
loss. Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes Trustee, in the name of Assignor or otherwise, to
collect such insurance or condemnation proceeds from the applicable underwriters or agents or
condemning authorities and to file and prosecute such claims, if Assignor fails to act or is in
default hereunder. All proceeds payable to Assignor under such insurance policies or as a result
of any condemnation naming or inuring to the benefit of Assignor shall be payable to Assignor to
be held in trust for the benefit of Trustee, provided Assignor shall be permitted to use such
proceeds to repair the Condominium Project, to the extent that the event for which proceeds were
awarded is curable by repair. Provided, however, that in the event that insurance or
condemnation proceeds are paid during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds
payable to Assignor under such insurance policies or as a result of any condemnation naming or
inuring to the benefit of Assignor shall be paid to Trustee, and, during the continuance of an
Event of Default shall be applied by Trustee against the Assignor's obligations under the Series
2021 Bonds secured hereby in such order and manner as Trustee shall direct in writing. With
regard to that portion, if any, of proceeds from such insurance policy or as a result of any
condemnation which remain after the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Assignor's
obligations under the Series 2021 Bonds, including all accrued but unpaid interest, penalties,
costs and expenses due and owing, such remaining portion of the proceeds shall be paid to
Assignor.
5. Event of Default. The term "Event of Default" as used herein, shall mean the
occurrence of any one of the following events:
(a) The occurrence and continuance of an "Event of Default" under the
Indenture;
(b) Assignor abandons all or a material portion of the City Facilities Unit;
5
(c) the holder of any lien or security interest on any portion of the City
Facilities Unit institutes foreclosure or other proceedings for the enforcement of its remedies
thereunder; or
(d) any failure by Assignor to comply with any of the provisions of this
Assignment or any of its covenants hereunder or the breach of any representation or warranty set
forth in this Assignment, any of which continues uncured after notice thereof by Trustee (i) for a
period of 10 days with respect to any default or event of default pertaining to the payment of
money, or (ii) for a period of 30 days with respect to any default or event of default other than
one pertaining to the payment of money; provided, however, that if such default is of the type
that, by its nature, cannot be cured within a 30 day period, then, so long as such cure is promptly
commenced and diligently prosecuted, Assignor shall have such additional time to effect a cure
as is reasonably necessary, but in no event more than 120 days.
6. Terms of Assignment of Rents; Collection and Application of Rents. The security
interest granted in and to the Leases and Rents as provided for in this Assignment is irrevocable.
Lender grants to Assignor a limited license (the "License") to receive and use the Leases and the
Rents. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the License will automatically terminate.
Thereafter, Trustee will have the absolute and continuing right (but not the obligation) to enforce
its security interest in and to the Rents and the Leases and to assume the role of the Assignor as
lessor or lessee under the Leases, as applicable and subject to Section 7, and to then collect,
demand, sue for, recover, receive and give receipts for any Rents. Trustee has no responsibility
to exercise diligence in collecting Rents. After deducting the expenses of collection, Trustee will
apply the net proceeds of collection as a credit upon any portion of the Assignor's obligations
under the Series 2021 Bonds selected by Trustee, whether or not that portion of the Assignor's
obligations under the Series 2021 Bonds is due and payable. As it relates specifically to the City
Facilities Lease, after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall
have the option to take possession of the City Facilities Unit, and to hold the same as lessee
under the City Facilities Lease. Assignor authorizes and directs any lessee of Leases to which
Assignor is the lessor to deliver any such payment to Trustee, and any lessee's obligation to
Assignor will be absolutely discharged to the extent of its payment to Trustee. If Assignor
receives any Rents after the enforcement of the security interest in and to the Rents, Assignor
will hold the Rents in trust for Trustee and immediately pay them to Trustee. Assignor will keep
Rents segregated from all other funds. Trustee is not required to give any credit against the
Assignor's obligations under the Series 2021 Bonds for the assignment of Rents, until Rents are
actually paid to Trustee. Assignor's obligations to Trustee will be discharged only to the extent
that net Rents are received by Trustee and not disbursed to Assignor or paid by Trustee for
expenses relating to the City Facilities Unit. The security interest in and to the Rents will not
cause Trustee to be a lender-in-possession. If the security interest in and to the Rents is
enforced, Trustee's possession of the Rents will not act as a waiver of any default or Event of
Default by Assignor. The security interest in and to the Leases and Rents will terminate upon the
satisfaction and cancellation of the Series 2021 Bonds and the release and reconveyance by the
Trustee of the other Bond Documents.
Any lessees of Leases to which the Assignor is the lessor are hereby authorized to
recognize the claims of Trustee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken
by Trustee. The sole signature of Trustee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights and
6
remedies under this Assignment. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this
Assignment shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Trustee. Lessees of Leases to which the
Assignor is the lessor are hereby expressly authorized and directed to pay all Rents and any other
amounts due to Assignor pursuant to such Leases or otherwise, to Trustee upon delivery of
written notice to such lessees by Trustee requiring payment of the Rents directly to Trustee at the
address of Trustee set forth in such notice, and Assignor hereby expressly relieves all such
lessees from any and all duty, liability or obligation to Assignor with respect to any and all
payments so made to Trustee.
7. No Obligation of Trustee/Indemnity by Assignor. Trustee shall not be obligated
to perform or discharge, nor does Trustee hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any
obligation, duty or liability under any of the Leases assigned hereunder or under or by reason of
this Assignment. Assignor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify Trustee against and hold it
harmless from any and all liability, loss, damage, cost or expense that Trustee may or might
incur under any of the Leases or under or by reason of this Assignment, and against and from
any and all claims and demands whatsoever that may be asserted against Trustee by reason of
any alleged obligation or undertaking on Trustee's part to perform or discharge any of the terms,
covenants or agreements contained in the Leases. Should Trustee incur any such liability, loss,
damage, cost or expense under any of the Leases or under or by reason of this Assignment, or in
the defense against any such claims or demands, the amount thereof, including, without
limitation, costs, expenses and reasonable legal fees and disbursements, shall be secured by this
Assignment and the other Bond Documents, and Assignor shall reimburse Trustee immediately
upon demand.
8. Waiver/Further Cooperation. Assignor further agrees as follows:
(a) Assignor will execute upon request of Trustee any and all instruments
requested by Trustee to carry out the terms and conditions of this Assignment or the assignments
intended hereby;
(b) Trustee's omission or failure to give any notice of or under this
Assignment to Assignor or any lessor, lessee, tenant or other occupant of the City Facilities Unit
or any part thereof, or to collect any such Rents, issues, income or profits therefrom, or any part
thereof, shall not constitute or be deemed a waiver of any of Trustee's rights hereunder, under
any other Bond Document; and
(c) on request of the Trustee, Assignor will execute and deliver to the Trustee
or otherwise, such instruments or documents (including, without limitation, estoppel certificates)
confirming the status of all or part of the Leases, including, without limitation, the assignment
thereof to Trustee.
9. Settlement for Termination. Assignor agrees that no settlement for damages for
termination of any of the Leases under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or under any other federal,
state, or local statute, shall be made without the prior written consent of Trustee, and any check
in the payment of such damages shall be made payable to both Assignor and Trustee. Assignor
hereby assigns any such payment to Trustee, to be applied to the Assignor's obligations under
7
the Series 2021 Bonds as Trustee may elect, and agrees to endorse any check for such payment
to the order of Trustee.
10. Lender in Possession. Trustee's acceptance of this Assignment shall not, prior to
entry upon and taking possession of the City Facilities Unit by Trustee, be deemed to constitute
Trustee a "lender in possession", nor obligate Trustee to appear in or defend any proceeding
relating to any of the Leases or to the City Facilities Unit, take any action hereunder, expend any
money, incur any expenses, or perform any obligation or liability under the Leases, or assume
any obligation for any deposits delivered to Assignor by any lessee under any of the Leases to
which Assignor is the lessor and not delivered to Trustee. Trustee shall not be liable for any
injury or damage to person or property in or about the City Facilities Unit.
11. Records. Upon request by Trustee, Assignor shall deliver to Trustee executed
originals of all Leases and copies of all records relating thereto.
12. Release. The satisfaction and cancellation of the Series 2021 Bonds and the
release and reconveyance of the other Bond Documents by the Trustee shall automatically
constitute a full release of this Assignment.
13. Miscellaneous.
(a) All notices, demands or documents that are required or permitted to be
given or served hereunder shall be given or served as provided in the Indenture.
(b) This Assignment shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the
State of Texas.
(c) This Assignment and all of the terms, covenants and conditions thereof
shall be binding upon Assignor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of
Trustee and its successors and assigns.
(d) Notwithstanding any future amendment to or modification of any Bond
Document other than this Assignment, this Assignment and the rights and benefits hereby
assigned and granted shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms of this
Assignment.
(e) This Assignment may not be changed, amended, modified, abridged,
cancelled or discharged other than by a written instrument signed by Trustee and Assignor.
(f) Time is of the essence of this Assignment.

Assignor has executed this Assignment under seal to be effective as of September 1,
2021.

political subdivision of both the State of Texas and the City of Baytown, Texas ("City"), pursuant to

general partnership (the "Design-Builder"), for the benefit of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A, in its capacity as

BACKGROUND:
A. The Design-Builder has entered into that certain "Design-Build Agreement and General
Conditions Between Owner and Design-Builder" by and between the Design-Builder and the District as
"Owner", dated as of August 25, 2021 (the "Design-Build Contract"), for the design, development,
construction,furnishing and equipping of the hotel and convention center with related public infrastructure
and facilities (the "Project") on approximately 7.745 acres of land owned by the City within the corporate
limits of the City (the "Project Site"). The Design-Build Contract, together with any and all other
agreements entered into now or hereafter between the Design-Builder and the District with respect to the
Project are referred to herein collectively as the "Assigned Contracts", whether one or more.
B. The District shall benefit from secured financing for the Project through the issuance of
one or more series of hotel revenue bonds (collectively, the "Bonds") issued by District pursuant to an
Indenture of Trust dated as of September 1, 2021 (the "Indenture")between the Issuer and the Trustee, for
the benefit of the holders of the Bonds, a true and correct copy of which has been provided to the Design-
Builder.
C. The District has entered into a Collateral Assignment of Contracts for the benefit of the
Trustee as of the date hereof, whereby the District has assigned all of its interest in and to its contracts,
permits and approvals relating to the Project, including,without limitation, the Assigned Contracts.
ACCORDINGLY, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, the parties consent and agree as follows:
Section 1 Design-Builder's Representations. Design-Builder warrants and represents to the
Trustee that as at the date of this Agreement,to the best of the Design-Builder's knowledge:
(a) The entire agreement between the Design-Builder and the District for the design, construction,
furnishing and equipping of the Project(the"Work")is evidenced by the Assigned Contracts,each
of which are listed on Exhibit A attached hereto, and the Assigned Contracts have not been
amended,modified or revised except as has been disclosed to the Trustee in writing.
(b) The Assigned Contracts have been executed by the Design-Builder's duly authorized officers and
constitute the valid and binding agreements of the Design-Builder, are in full force and effect and
enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to principles of equity and laws from time to
time in effect affecting the rights of creditors generally, and the Design-Builder has full authority
under all applicable laws and regulations of any applicable governmental authority to perform all
of its obligations under the Assigned Contracts.
(c) Neither the Design-Builder nor,to the Design-Builder's knowledge,the District, is in default in the
performance of the terms and provisions of the Assigned Contracts,nor is there now any condition
which, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, will become a default by the Design-
Builder or, to the Design-Builder's knowledge, the District; all payments and fees due and payable
1
by the District to the Design-Builder under the Assigned Contracts have been paid to the date
hereof; and the Design-Builder,to the best of its knowledge,is not aware of any claims against the
District for indemnification or otherwise as of the date hereof.
(d) No notice of termination and/or cancellation has been given by the Design-Builder or the District
to the other party under the Assigned Contracts; to the best of the Design-Builder's knowledge,no
event or condition has occurred or exists under the Assigned Contracts which,with the passage of
time, or the giving of notice, or both, would entitle either party thereto to give a notice of
termination or cancellation under the Assigned Contracts.
Section 2 Consent to Collateral Assignment to the Trustee.
(a) The Design-Builder hereby acknowledges the collateral assignment of the Assigned Contracts by
the District to the Trustee, and the Design-Builder irrevocably consents to such collateral
assignments of all of the District's respective rights and obligations under the Assigned Contracts,
including the Trustee's right to enforce performance and exercise remedies against the Design-
Builder.
(b) Upon the occurrence and continuance of an "Event of Default" by the District under the Indenture
(an "Indenture Default"), the Trustee may deliver written notice (the "Indenture Default Notice")
to the Design-Builder of such Indenture Default and of the Trustee's intent to enforce any of the
Assigned Contracts. Upon the delivery of an Indenture Default Notice,the Trustee shall have the right
and option to exercise any right of the District,give any consent or notice,cure any default,take any
act or refrain from taking any act, to enforce and otherwise act in the full place and stead of the
District pursuant to the Assigned Contracts.
(c) The Design-Builder agrees to permit the Trustee to enforce the Assigned Contracts and enjoy the
benefits thereof(to the extent permitted under the Assigned Contract) at any time upon receipt by
the Design-Builder of the Indenture Default Notice, at which time it shall treat the Trustee as the
party entitled to receive the benefits of,and enforce the Assigned Contract. The Trustee shall have
no obligation to cure any defaults of the District except expressly agreed upon by the Trustee in
writing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, receipt of an
Indenture Default Notice shall be the only condition to the Design-Builder's performing directly for
the Trustee,and the Design-Builder shall not be required to investigate or verify the nature or extent
of any Indenture Default.
(d) The Design-Builder and the District each agree to furnish, promptly upon receipt thereof, to the
Trustee copies of all notices of default which the Design-Builder or District gives or receives under
the Assigned Contracts.
Section 3 Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Assigned
Contracts, the Design-Builder shall not terminate any Assigned Contract due to a default of the District(a
"Contract Default")unless all of the following have occurred:
(a) The Design-Builder notifies the District and the Trustee of the Contract Default and its intent to
terminate such Assigned Contract pursuant to the applicable provisions of such Assigned Contract
due to a Contract Default if such Contract Default remains uncured (a "Notice of Intent to
Terminate");
(b) The District fails to cure the Contract Default within the time period permitted under such Assigned
Contract(if any);

(c) The Design-Builder gives written notice to the District and the Trustee that the District has failed
to cure the Contract Default within the time period permitted under such Assigned Contract (the
"Notice of Termination"); and
(d) The Trustee fails to cure such Contract Default within an additional 30 days following receipt by
the District and the Trustee of the Notice of Termination(if such 30-day period is not enough to so
cure such Contract Default, the Trustee shall have such additional period of time as is necessary to
cure such Contract Default, provided that such default is not a monetary default and provided
further that the Trustee has commenced to cure such Contract Default within said 30-day period
and is using commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute the completion of such cure).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Assigned Contracts, neither
any election by the Trustee to attempt to cure a Contract Default or to pay or cause to be paid any amounts
due to the Design-Builder under the Assigned Contracts,nor any other action of the Trustee(other than the
express written assumption of any such obligations) shall constitute or be deemed to constitute an
assumption of the Trustee of any other obligations or liabilities of the District at law or in equity.
Section 4 Bankruptcy. Notwithstanding anything set forth in Section 3 above,the Design-Builder
covenants and agrees that it will not terminate the Assigned Contracts if the District becomes insolvent or
files or initiates proceedings or has proceedings filed or initiated against it relating to its liquidation,
insolvency, reorganization or other relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law so long as
the Design-Builder is being paid all amounts required to be paid to it under the terms of the Assigned
Contracts.
Section 5 Payment of Amounts to District. Each of the Design-Builder and the District agrees
and acknowledges that at the direction of the Trustee,payment of any liquidated damages or other amounts
due and owing under the Assigned Contracts by the Design-Builder to the District will be made to an
account of the Trustee.
Section 6 Subordination to Trustee; Limitation on Trustee's Liability.
(a) Subordination. The Design-Builder expressly acknowledges and agrees that any and all rights of
the Design-Builder (including, without limitation, any and all liens, rights and interests, whether

claimed or held by the Design-Builder against, in and to the Project, the Project Site, the
improvements now or hereafter constructed thereon,and the inventory and personal property of the
District or the Trustee, are and shall be subordinate and inferior to the Trustee's rights under the
Indenture or any other security instrument securing the District's obligations under the Bonds for
the benefit of the Trustee, including without limitation, any leasehold deed of trust and/or
assignment of leases and rents covering any portion of the Project.
(b) Reliance by the Trustee. The Design-Builder has executed this Agreement with the understanding
that the Trustee will rely upon the representations and agreements herein in entering into the
Indenture, and the Design-Builder has been advised that but for this Agreement and the
representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, the Trustee would not enter into the
Indenture.
(c) Certificates of the Trustee. When the Design-Builder receives an Indenture Default Notice, the
District hereby authorizes and instructs the Design-Builder to exclusively rely on the Indenture
Default Notice for the establishment of an Indenture Default. The District hereby waives and re
3
leases any and all claims and causes of action that the District might otherwise have against the
Design-Builder for acting (or refusing to act) in reliance upon any such Indenture Default Notice.
If, after the receipt of such Indenture Default Notice, the Design-Builder shall receive conflicting
instructions, the District hereby authorizes and instructs the Design-Builder to exclusively rely on
the Indenture Default Notice or other instructions furnished by the Trustee,and hereby waives and
releases any and all claims and causes of action that the District might otherwise have against the
Design-Builder for acting (or refusing to act) in reliance upon any such Indenture Default Notice
or instructions of the Trustee.
(d) Liability of the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or
the Assigned Contracts(unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing), in no event shall the Trustee

Assigned Contracts, if any, howsoever arising (including, without limitation, arising from
gross negligence); or
(v) bound by any amendment or supplement to the Assigned Contracts made without the prior
written consent of the Trustee.

full assignment or reassignment of the interests or rights of the Trustee under this Agreement to
any successor to the Trustee's rights under this Agreement; provided always that the Trustee shall

as soon as possible following such assignment or reassignment, including the address for notices;
provided further, however,that the Trustee shall not incur any liability for the failure to send such
notice.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual promises and
covenants of the parties hereunder, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree that:

meanings indicated below:

(b) any other voluntary or involuntary insolvency, reorganization or
bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation,

occurrence of a default or event of default under the Security Documents,
or (iii) a sale or other disposition effected in an Insolvency or Liquidation
- 2 -
Proceeding (including, without limitation, by way of a sale under Section
363 of the Bankruptcy Code, pursuant to a plan of reorganization, or by a
receiver or assignee for the benefit of creditors or other representative of the
Owner's estate) to a Purchaser; provided that this clause (iii) shall exclude
any sale or other disposition to a Purchaser unaffiliated with Trustee only if
(x) Trustee has complied with its covenant in the last sentence of Section
3(a) hereof, and (y) notwithstanding such compliance, such sale or other
disposition is consummated pursuant to an order of the court having
jurisdiction over the applicable Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.
"Purchaser" shall mean Trustee, an affiliate or a nominee of
Trustee,Bondholder, or any other Person who acquires any interest in all or
any portion of the Hotel or in the Owner or successor-in-interest to Owner
as owner of all or any portion of the Hotel (including any reorganized
Owner pursuant to a plan of reorganization in a bankruptcy case). In each
case, pursuant to a Post Default Transfer, subject in all events to the
assignment provisions of the Management Agreement.
2. Subordination. The Management Agreement, and any liens arising
thereunder or by virtue thereof, are and at all times shall continue to be subject and
subordinate in all respects to the Security Documents and to all renewals, modifications,
and extensions thereof, subject, however, to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
Hyatt hereby consents to the collateral assignment of, and the grant of security interests in,
the Management Agreement by Owner to Trustee pursuant to the Security Documents.
3. Non-Disturbance and Attornment.
(a) So long as Hyatt is not in default(beyond any period given to Hyatt
to cure such default) in the payment of amounts due or the performance of any of the other
terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on Hyatt's part to be
performed,which default gives Owner the right to terminate the Management Agreement,
Trustee agrees that Hyatt's management of the Hotel and all of its other rights under the
Management Agreement shall remain undisturbed by any Purchaser following a Post
Default Transfer and shall be recognized by Purchaser, and its permitted successors and
assigns, for all the rest and remainder of the term of the Management Agreement and any
extension or renewal thereof, it being the intention of the parties that following any Post
Default Transfer,Hyatt and Purchaser shall be bound to one another under all of the terms,
covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement, and each shall have and may
exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies thereunder, with the same force and effect
as if Purchaser were "Owner"under the Management Agreement and Hyatt and Purchaser
were the original parties thereto. Following any Post Default Transfer and notwithstanding
that the parties hereto hereby agree that the foregoing provisions shall be effective and self-
operative without the execution of any other instruments on the part of either party,
Purchaser shall execute and deliver to Trustee and Hyatt a written instrument
acknowledging its acceptance and assumption of the Management Agreement, and the
obligations of Owner thereunder, as required by Section 6.7 of the Deed of Trust and as
hereinabove contemplated. Trustee hereby covenants and agrees that it will object to,
withhold its consent and approval to, and, if applicable, vote against, any transfer of the
- 3 -
Hotel,or any part thereof or interest therein,occurring by way of a sale or other disposition
effected in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding(including,without limitation,by way
of a sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, pursuant to a plan of reorganization,
or by a receiver or assignee for the benefit of creditors or other representatives of the
Owner's estate) to a Purchaser, unless such Purchaser accepts and assumes in writing at
the closing of such sale or other disposition the Management Agreement and otherwise
complies with the provisions of this Agreement.
(b) The provisions of this Agreement shall apply with equal force in the
event the Management Agreement,or Hyatt's agency thereunder,is terminated,rejected or
otherwise interfered with(such termination,rejection or interference to include the exercise
of rights under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting creditor's rights).
In any such event and provided the Management Agreement has not prior terminated in
accordance with the terms of the Management Agreement and the Indenture, Purchaser
shall enter into a new Management Agreement with Hyatt upon the same terms and
conditions contained in the Management Agreement,except that the term thereof would be
the remaining term under the Management Agreement from the date of the execution of
such new agreement, subject, however, to any then unexercised extension or renewal
rights, in accordance with the requirements of Section 6.7 of the Deed of Trust and Section
13.1 of the Management Agreement.
In connection with the foregoing, Owner expressly acknowledges and agrees that
conditioning a foreclosure sale on the requirement that all bidders agree to take the property
subject to the Management Agreement may "chill the bids"and result in a smaller pool of
potential bidders and/or lower prices being offered at the foreclosure sale. Owner expressly
instructs Trustee, to the extent the foregoing conditions can be satisfied, to condition any
foreclosure sale on the requirement that the bidder agree to purchase subject to the
Management Agreement, and Owner expressly waives any rights it has at law or in equity
to challenge any such foreclosure sale as being in violation of law or to bring any claims
against Trustee on account of requiring such condition as part of any such foreclosure.
Further, Owner and Hyatt acknowledge and agree that the Management Agreement may
be made public and disclosed in the notice of sale and to all potential bidders at a
foreclosure sale; provided, however, prior to Trustee's disclosure of the Management
Agreement in connection with a foreclosure sale, to the extent permitted under applicable
law, Trustee, its affiliate or nominee or the foreclosure trustee shall cause all prospective
bidders to sign a commercially reasonable non-disclosure and confidentiality agreement.
(c) Following any Post Default Transfer, Hyatt hereby agrees to attorn
to the Purchaser as the Owner under the Management Agreement, said attornment to be
effective immediately upon Purchaser acquiring all or any portion of Owner's interest in
the Hotel. Although the foregoing attornment shall be effective and self-operative without
the execution of any other instruments on the part of either party hereto, upon the written
request of the Purchaser, Hyatt shall execute and deliver to Purchaser (i) an agreement of
attornment in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser confirming the
foregoing attomment and agreeing to perform all of the terms, covenants and conditions of
the Management Agreement on Hyatt's part to be performed for the benefit of Purchaser
- 4 -
with the same force and effect as if Purchaser were "Owner" originally named in the
Management Agreement, or (ii) a new management agreement with the Purchaser as
owner, for the remaining term of the Management Agreement and otherwise on the same
terms and conditions as the original Management Agreement.
4. Amendments to Management Agreement. From and after the date
hereof, no amendment, modification, surrender, termination or cancellation of the
Management Agreement shall be binding upon Trustee or any other Purchaser (if any),
unless written notice of such amendment, modification, surrender, termination or
cancellation is delivered to the Trustee and, if Purchaser is a party to the Management
Agreement at the time of such amendment, modification, surrender, termination or
cancellation, approved or agreed to by such Purchaser in writing.
5. Purchaser Liability.
(a) Purchaser shall have no personal liability under the Management
Agreement for events occurring or matters arising prior to the Post Default Transfer;
provided, however, nothing herein contained shall limit the rights and remedies of Hyatt
under this Agreement. No Purchaser shall have any personal liability under the
Management Agreement and Hyatt shall look only to the estate and property of Purchaser
in the Hotel or the proceeds thereof(including,without limitation,amounts on deposit from
time to time in the Accounts)for the satisfaction of Hyatt's remedies requiring the payment
of money by a Purchaser as Owner.
(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 5(a), nothing contained
in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate Purchaser to cure any default by Owner
under the Management Agreement occurring prior to any date on which Purchaser shall
succeed to the rights of Owner thereunder. Accordingly,and without limitation,Purchaser
shall not (i) be liable to Hyatt for any damages arising out of any act or omission of any
prior Owner under the Management Agreement, (ii) be subject to any offset or defense
which Hyatt might have against any prior Owner under the Management Agreement, or
(iii)be liable to Hyatt for any liability or obligation or the payment of any sums due by any
prior Owner under the Management Agreement incurred or accruing prior to the date that
Purchaser acquires title to the Hotel; provided, however, subject to the provisions of
Section 5(a), Purchaser shall be liable in accordance with the terms of the Management
Agreement for the payment of any indemnification obligations, costs or expenses, or
similar obligations which Hyatt is permitted, pursuant to the Management Agreement, to
pay out of the Accounts or to which Hyatt is entitled to reimbursement from Owner under
the Management Agreement,but only to the extent of funds available from time to time in
the Accounts.
6. Notifications.
(a) Hyatt hereby agrees (i)to promptly notify Trustee if at any time it is
Hyatt's position that Hyatt is excused from its obligation to operate the Hotel in conformity
with the first-class standard, in accordance with and as provided in the Management
Agreement, and (ii) to give Trustee copies of all notices and other communications given
or received by Hyatt relating to defaults or alleged defaults on the part of Owner or Hyatt
- 5 -
under the Management Agreement. In the event of a default by Owner under the
Management Agreement,Hyatt shall give Trustee thirty(30)days in which to cure or cause
the default to be cured beyond any applicable grace period provided to Owner under the
Management Agreement. If such default is of a non-monetary nature and is not reasonably
susceptible of being cured within said thirty(30)day period(including,without limitation,
by reason of the time necessary for Trustee's exercise of its rights and remedies pursuant
to the Security Documents or as may otherwise be available at law or equity), a longer
period required to effect a cure shall be granted provided Trustee proceeds with and
continues to cure such non-monetary default with due diligence. In addition,if such default
is not susceptible of being cured by the advancement of money and is otherwise not
susceptible of being cured by Trustee until Trustee has possession of the Hotel or otherwise
exercises the rights and remedies available to Trustee pursuant to the Security Documents,
Hyatt will not terminate the Management Agreement as a result of such default provided
Trustee is diligently pursuing foreclosure proceedings, self-help remedies or any other
remedial procedures pursuant to the Security Documents or otherwise available at law or
equity. Nothing contained in this Section 6 shall be deemed or construed to impose any
obligation on the part of Trustee to correct or cure any such condition,but Hyatt shall retain
all its rights and remedies under the Management Agreement,including,without limitation,
its right to terminate the Management Agreement, if such default is not cured within the
time periods therein set forth.
(b) Trustee hereby agrees to give Hyatt copies of all notices and other
communication given or received by Trustee relating to defaults or alleged defaults on the
part of Owner under the Security Documents.
7. Accounts. Hyatt hereby acknowledges and consents to the grant of a
security interest in favor of Trustee in the "Collection Account" (as defined in Section
6.1(a) of the Management Agreement and the Indenture), the "Operating Account" (as
defined in Section 6.1(b) of the Management Agreement and the Indenture), and in the
"Indenture Operating Funds" (as defined in Section 6.1(d)) of the Management
Agreement) (collectively, the "Capital Funds"), the Collection Account, the Operating
Account and the Capital Funds being herein collectively referred to as the "Accounts".
Trustee and Hyatt hereby agree with respect to the Accounts as follows, and Owner, by
joining in the execution and delivery hereof, hereby consents to the provisions of this
Section 7 and agrees that Hyatt may, without breach of any of its duties or obligations
under the Management Agreement, comply with the provisions hereof:
(a) From and after receipt by Hyatt of a written notice from Trustee,
delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, advising Hyatt of the
occurrence of any default or event of default under the Security Documents, and directing
Hyatt to make payment directly to Trustee of any amounts otherwise required to be paid or
remitted by Hyatt to Owner, Hyatt shall (until receipt of contrary directions from Trustee)
make all such payments or remittances directly to Trustee in accordance with instructions
contained in the aforesaid written notice notwithstanding any notice to the contrary
received by Hyatt from Owner or any other Person; provided, however, the obligation of
Hyatt hereunder shall be subject to any order of court or other governmental agency or
authority which Hyatt, in good faith, believes to be genuine. In no event shall Hyatt have
- 6 -
liability or responsibility of any kind (i) to Trustee or any Purchaser, or any successor in
interest to Trustee or any Purchaser, for any distributions or remittances made by Hyatt to
Owner prior to the receipt by Hyatt of a written notice from Trustee or any Purchaser as
herein contemplated; or (ii) to Owner for any distributions or remittances made by Hyatt
to, or at the direction of,Trustee following receipt by Hyatt of any written notice as herein
contemplated, or (iii) to either Owner or Trustee for reliance upon any written notice
purportedly from Trustee which Hyatt in good faith believes to be genuine and authorized
on behalf of Trustee.
(b) Notwithstanding the occurrence of any default or event of default
under any of the Security Documents, and notwithstanding any Post Default Transfer,
Hyatt may continue to maintain the Accounts as contemplated by the Management
Agreement, and may continue to make disbursements therefrom for the purposes and in
accordance with the provisions of the Management Agreement and in order to ensure the
uninterrupted and continuous operation of the Hotel, and the payment of all costs and
expenses of its operation (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts required
to be paid to Hyatt), without interference from Trustee or any other Person. Without
limiting the generality of the preceding sentence,Trustee agrees that neither it nor any other
Purchaser shall exercise any rights or remedies under the Security Documents or otherwise
(including, without limitation, the exercise of any rights of set off or counterclaim) in a
manner inconsistent with its obligations under the preceding sentence, nor shall Trustee or
any other Purchaser obtain or seek to obtain any order of court or other governmental
agency or authority having jurisdiction seeking or directing deposits to, or withdrawals
from, any of the Accounts in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement,
the Management Agreement or the Indenture.
S. Receivers/Mortgagee-in-Possession. If, in connection with the
enforcement of any of its rights or remedies under the Security Documents, Trustee or any
other Person is appointed mortgagee-in-possession or receiver with respect to the Hotel,or
any part thereof or interest therein, Trustee agrees that such appointment shall be subject
in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement regarding the non-disturbance of Hyatt's
management of the Hotel, it being the intention of the parties that no exercise of remedies
by or on behalf of Trustee shall in any manner interfere with the operation of the Hotel by
Hyatt as contemplated by the Management Agreement. The rights of the receiver or
mortgagee with respect to the Accounts shall likewise be subject to the provisions of this
Agreement and specifically the provisions of Section 7 hereof, although Hyatt agrees, in
connection therewith, to cooperate in all reasonable respects with the receiver or the
mortgagee-in-possession in the preparation of such reports and accountings as may be
required of the receiver or mortgagee-in-possession by law or by order of court.
9. Condemnation and Insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement or in the Management Agreement, Hyatt agrees that (a) the
provisions of the Deed of Trust shall govern with regard to casualty insurance proceeds or
condemnation awards and (b) in the event casualty insurance proceeds or condemnation
awards are not applied to the cost of restoration of the Hotel, such proceeds or awards shall
be paid to Trustee for application in accordance with the Security Documents.

to the Trustee as follows:
(a) Assignor has not assigned or granted a security interest in any of the Assigned Interests to
any Person other than the Trustee.

(b) Assignor's interest in each of the Assigned Interests is not subject to any claims, set-offs,

(c) To Assignor's knowledge, the Contracts are in full force and effect, and the Contracts

beneficial rights, interests, powers or privileges under the Contracts or Permits.
(h) Assignor has not executed any other document or instrument that might prevent or limit

provisions of this Assignment.
(i) Assignor will provide the Trustee promptly, but in any event within ten (10) days after
receipt thereof by Assignor, with copies of any and all notices received by Assignor which
allege, either directly or indirectly, that Assignor is in default of, or deficient in the
performance of the terms of any obligation of Assignor under any of the Contracts or
Permits or that any fact or circumstance exists which could reasonably lead to the
termination, suspension, revocation or loss of any of the Contracts or Permits.
(j) Except as otherwise stated or provided for herein, no authorizations, consents, approvals,
licenses,permits,filings or registrations with any governmental entity are necessary for the
execution, delivery or performance by Assignor of this Assignment or for the validity or
enforceability hereof.
4. No Assumption by the Trustee; Assignor's Covenants. The acceptance of this
Assignment by the Trustee shall not constitute an assumption of any obligations on the part of the
Trustee under the Contracts or the Permits, and Assignor shall continue to be liable for all
obligations thereunder until such obligations are affirmatively assumed by the Trustee. Assignor
hereby agrees to punctually perform any and all material obligations it may have under the
Contracts and the Permits, to take such steps as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to
keep the Assigned Interests in full force and effect, to take such steps as may be reasonably
necessary or appropriate to secure timely performance by all other parties of their obligations under
the Contracts. The Trustee (or its nominee or designee) may, at its option, but is not obligated to,
perform or discharge any obligation of Assignor under any of the Contracts or the Permits, at
Assignor's expense, in the event that Assignor fails to do so in accordance with the terms of the
Contract. The exercise by the Trustee of any of the rights and remedies hereunder does not release
Assignor from any of its duties and obligations under the Contracts and the Permits. Assignor
agrees to indemnify and hold the Trustee harmless against and from any loss, cost, liability
3
or expense(including,without limitation,all reasonable attorneys' and accountants'fees and
expenses, court costs and reasonable investigation expenses) resulting from any failure of
Assignor to perform its obligations under the Contracts or the Permits as and when Assignor
is required to do so pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, Development Agreement and/or
the Design-Build Contract, as applicable. This Indemnity survives the expiration or
termination of this Assignment.
5. Use of Permits and Plans. Subject to the terms of this Assignment, the Trustee
(or their nominees or designees) may use the Permits and the Plans for any purpose relating to the
Project, including, without limitation, inspecting, development, construction, installation,
completion, operation, maintenance and restoration of the Project. For the purpose of inspecting,
developing, constructing, installing, completing, operating, maintaining, restoring and otherwise
dealing with the Project, the Trustee may reassign its right, title and interest in the Permits and the
Plans to any persons or entities succeeding to the Trustee's interest in the Project, in such
assignee's sole discretion without any requirements for the consent of Assignor, and any such
reassignment is valid and binding upon Assignor as fully as if Assignor had expressly approved
the same.
6. No Approval of Permits and Plans. The Trustee's acceptance of this Assignment
does not constitute approval of the Permits and the Plans by the Trustee. The Trustee does not
assume any liability or obligation whatsoever in connection with the Permits and the Plans or any
responsibility for the adequacy thereof or for the development, construction, installation,
completion,operation,maintenance,or restoration of the Project. The Trustee shall have the right,
but not the duty, to inspect the Project, and if the Trustee should inspect the Project, it does not
assume any liability or obligation to Assignor or any other person or entity arising out of such
inspection. No such inspection nor any failure by the Trustee to make objections after any such
inspection will constitute a representation by the Trustee that the Project is built in accordance
with, and is in compliance with, the Permits or the Plans, nor does such action constitute a waiver
of the Trustee's right thereafter to insist that the Project be completed in strict accordance with the
Development Agreement, the Contracts, Permits or the Plans.
7. Benefits Conditionally Retained by Assignor. The Trustee hereby grants
Assignor the right to continue to receive the benefits of, and exercise the rights, powers and
privileges under the Assigned Interests; provided, however, that the Trustee may revoke such
rights at any time that a breach or default by Assignor under the Assigned Interests or Indenture
has occurred and is continuing, after any applicable cure period has expired(in either event, as the
case may be, a "Contract Default").
8. Action by the Trustee Following Default. The Trustee (or its nominees or
designees) shall have the right(but shall have no obligation)at any time during the continuance of
a Contract Default, without notice and without taking possession of the Project, to take in its name
or in the name of Assignor or otherwise, such action as the Trustee may at any time or from time
to time determine to be necessary to cure any default under the Assigned Interests, or to protect or
exercise the rights, interests or benefits of Assignor or the Trustee thereunder including without
limitation, the vested property rights under the Assigned Interests.
9. Power of Attorney
4
. Assignor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Trustee its true and lawful agent
and attorney-in-fact,with,during the continuance of a Contract Default,full power of substitution,
to demand, receive and enforce all rights, interests, powers and privileges of Assignor under the
Contracts and the Permits, to modify, extend, renew, supplement and terminate the Contracts the
Plans and the Permits, to give appropriate releases and/or receipts for or on behalf of Assignor in
connection with the Contracts, in the name, place and stead of Assignor or in the Trustee's name,
with the same force and effect as Assignor could do if this Assignment had not been made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as the Indenture or Contracts remains in effect, the
Trustee may not modify or supplement the Contracts or Permits in any manner that would increase
Assignor's obligations or liability thereunder. Assignor authorizes any third party to exclusively
rely on the certificate of an officer of the Trustee for the establishment of a Contract Default and
hereby waives and releases any claim Assignor may have against such third party for such reliance.
Assignor hereby agrees to deliver to the Trustee, upon written demand, originals or authenticated
copies of all of the Assigned Interests, and such other instruments and documents as the Trustee
may reasonably require in order to permit the Trustee's(or its nominee's or designee's)succession
to the vested property rights under the Assigned Interests and to the other beneficial rights, titles,
interests,powers and privileges of Assignor in and to the Assigned Interests as provided herein. It
is hereby recognized that the power of attorney herein granted is coupled with an interest and is
irrevocable; provided, however that such power of attorney shall automatically terminate upon
performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations.
10. Consents of Contract Parties. Assignor hereby agrees that at the request of the
Trustee, Assignor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver to the
Trustee, and have executed and delivered to the Trustee, consents to this Assignment by the parties
to the Contracts other than Assignor, such consents to be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee.
11. Binding Effect. This Assignment is binding upon Assignor and Assignor's heirs,
executors,administrators,legal representatives,successors and permitted assigns,and inures to the
benefit of the Trustee and its successors and assigns. The Trustee may reassign its right, title,
interests, powers and privileges in, to and under the Assigned Interests in whole or in part, to any
person or entities succeeding to the Trustee in and to the Indenture, the Contracts, or the Project,
in the Trustee's sole discretion without any requirement for Assignor's consent, and any such
reassignment will be valid and binding upon Assignor as fully as if Assignor had expressly
approved the same.
12. Security Agreement. This Assignment shall constitute a security agreement, as
that term is used in the Uniform Commercial Code as promulgated in the State of Texas (the
"UCC"). The Trustee shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided herein, in
law, at equity or otherwise, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Prior to or
concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Assignment, and from time to time thereafter
as reasonably requested by the Trustee, the Trustee shall be permitted to file such financing
statements and other documents in such offices as it may deem necessary or appropriate to perfect
the security interests granted by this Assignment.
13. Reinstatement
5
. This Assignment and the security interest created hereunder shall automatically be
reinstated, if applicable,if and to the extent that for any reason any default payment by or on behalf
of Assignor in respect of its obligations under the Indenture is rescinded or must otherwise be
restored by any holder of such right to receive payment, whether as a result of any proceedings in
bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.
14. Expenses. Assignor agrees to pay to the Trustee all actual reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including reasonable expenses for attorney's fees and costs of every kind) of or incident
