EXHIBIT 99.5 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Board of Directors Capstar Hotel Company: We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of the Embassy Suites Philadelphia (the Hotel) as of December 31, 1996 and the related statements of operations, owners' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Hotel's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Embassy Suites Philadelphia as of December 31, 1996 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Hotel commenced operations in May of 1993 and has 288 suites. The Hotel offers dining, meeting and banquet and recreational facilities. The Hotel's business is generated from both business travelers and tourists due to its proximity to the Pennsylvania convention center and numerous tourist attractions. The Hotel is owned by BA Parkway Associates II, a general partnership. BA Parkway Associates II was ultimately owned by Bell Atlantic Investments, Inc. until April 30, 1997, when AAP Hotel Co. and LFREI Sub One, Inc., affiliates of Atlantic American Properties, purchased the partnership interests. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accounts of the Hotel are included in the financial records of BA Parkway Associates II. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Hotel only, as if it was a separate legal entity, and have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Hotel considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. INVENTORY Inventory, consisting primarily of linens and various other items, is stated at cost, using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The carrying value of the Hotel was adjusted upon the purchase of the partnership interests by Atlantic American Properties (see Note 1) to the purchase price of $33,000,000. Depreciation is computed on the building using the straight-line method over its useful life of 40 years. Furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over 10 years. Management periodically evaluates potential permanent impairment of the net carrying value of the Hotel. If the net carrying value of the Hotel exceeds its fair value, the excess is charged to operations. No impairment losses were recorded in 1997 or 1996. BAD DEBT EXPENSE Bad debt expense is accounted for using the allowance method. Management reviews the aging of accounts receivable and other current information on debtors to establish an allowance for doubtful accounts. Write offs occur when management deems a receivable uncollectible. 6 (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE Revenue is earned through the operations of the Hotel and recognized when earned. INCOME TAXES The financial statements contain no provision for federal income taxes as the Hotel is owned by a partnership and, therefore, all of the partnership's income, losses, deductions, and credits for tax purposes are reported on the income tax returns of the partners. USE OF ESTIMATES Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (3) RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Certain subsidiaries of Bell Atlantic Investments, Inc. advanced amounts to the Hotel. The Hotel was charged interest at an effective rate of 10.4 percent on the advances. The advances had no stated maturity date. The outstanding balance of these advances was $24,939,117 at December 31, 1996. These advances were repaid upon the purchase of the partnership interests on April 30, 1997. Interest charged to the Hotel on these advances was $863,485 (unaudited) for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and $2,605,637 in 1996. Subsequent to April 30, 1997, an affiliate of Atlantic American Properties advanced amounts to the Hotel. These advances did not bear interest. These advances amounted to $559,288 (unaudited) at June 30, 1997. Room revenue earned through related parties was approximately $313,000 (unaudited) for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and approximately $762,000 in 1996. (4) NOTE PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTY BA Parkway Associates II entered into a $23,000,000 promissory note with Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company on April 30, 1997. The note bears interest at the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate plus 175 basis points and has a maturity date of April 30, 1998. Interest incurred on this note was $314,103 (unaudited) for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The note is secured by the Hotel and related assets. (5) COMMITMENTS For the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, the Hotel earned rental income of $225,000 (unaudited) and $450,000 respectively, under a non-cancelable operating lease with a tenant that maintains a restaurant on the premises. The lease, which expires in May 2000, provides for minimum rent and requires the tenant to pay its pro rata share of certain building operating expenses, as defined in the lease. 7 (5) COMMITMENTS (CONTINUED) Future minimum lease payments under the non-cancelable operating lease as of December 31, 1996 is as follows: 1997............................................................ $ 450,000 1998............................................................ 450,000 1999............................................................ 450,000 2000............................................................ 187,500 --------- Total future minimum lease payments............................. $1,537,500 --------- --------- (6) SUBSEQUENT EVENT On August 12, 1997, the partnership interests in BA Parkway Associates II were purchased by certain affiliates of CapStar Hotel Company for $33,600,000. Concurrent with the purchase, the note payable to third party was repaid. 8
