         (a) The Cash Collateral Agreement is amended by deleting Section 5
thereof in its entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following:

                "Section 5. FF&E Account. (a) On the Closing Date, the
                            ------------
         Borrower shall cause all FF&E Reserves (as defined in the Existing
         Management Agreement) to be deposited into the FF&E Account. Except for
         Earnings on the FF&E Account, and except as contemplated by the
         Management Agreement and the Assignment with respect to the FF&E
         Account, no other funds shall be deposited into the FF&E Account and
         the Borrower shall not commingle funds on deposit in the FF&E Account
         with its other funds or funds of any other Person. The Borrower and the
         Manager agree that funds on deposit in the FF&E Account (including
         Earnings thereon) may only be used for the purpose of payment of the
         costs of FF&E Replacements (as defined in the Management Agreement) as
         contemplated by Section 7.02 of the Management Agreement and by the
         Assignment.

                (b)    Only the Lender shall have authority to withdraw any
         funds on deposit in the FF&E Account. So long as no Event of Default
         shall have occurred and be in

 
         existence, the Lender will disburse to the Manager funds on deposit in
                    -----------------------------------------------------------

         ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
         Account Disbursement Request") in the form of Annex I attached hereto
         ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
         purportedly signed by (A) the manager or the controller of the Hotel
         ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
         thereby requesting a disbursement from the FF&E Account and (B) an
         ------------------------------------------------------------------
         officer of the Manager designated by the Manager as being authorized to
         -----------------------------------------------------------------------
         sign an FF&E Account Disbursement Request pursuant to the most recent
         ---------------------------------------------------------------------
         written notice (a "Manager Representative Authorization") to the Lender
         -----------------------------------------------------------------------
         in the form of Annex II attached hereto which notice identifies no more
         -----------------------
         than four such officers of the Manager and (ii) the written approval of
         an authorized representative of the Lender designated by the Lender
         pursuant to a written notice to the Manager in the form of Annex III
         attached hereto as a signatory with respect to the FF&E Account. The
         Lender shall make the amount of any such disbursement permitted
         hereunder available to the Manager within three Business Days of
                                            --------------------------
         receipt by the Lender of the applicable FF&E Account Disbursement
         Request. The Lender shall be entitled to rely entirely and conclusively
         upon any and all information, statements and other matters set forth in
         any FF&E Account Disbursement Request or Manager Representative
         Authorization received by it.

                (c)    Provided the Lender acts in accordance with the
         immediately preceding subsection (b), each of the Borrower and Manager
         jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold the Lender harmless
         from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
         penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements
         of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by
         or asserted against the Lender in any way relating to or arising out of
         withdrawals from the FF&E Account in the manner described in this
         Section, or any action taken or omitted by the Lender in conformity
         with this Section (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's
         fees). The effectiveness of this subsection (c) shall survive the
