CERTAIN PREPETITION OBLIGATIONS INCURRED PURSUANT
TO HOTEL MANAGEMENT AND SHARED SERVICES AGREEMENTS

Now Comes Midland Loan Services, Inc. (Midland) and in support of its Objection,
represents
1. Midland pursuant to the Servicing Agreement services and administers that
certain secured loan in the amount of not less than $825,402,542 plus interest, costs and fees (the
Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan)
1
owed by certain of the Debtors. The Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan

1
The Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan was made pursuant to that certain loan agreement dated
as of June 29, 2007 (as amended, the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement), and is
evidenced by (i) a certain Replacement Note A-1 and (ii) a certain Replacement Note A-
2, each dated as of August 9, 2007, and each in the original principal amount of

is secured by forty-five (45) hotels and other property, including property constituting Midlands
cash collateral generated from the hotel operations.
2
Midland is the largest secured creditor of
the Debtors. Its debt is larger than all the debt (whether on a stand-alone or combined basis)
existing in the Debtors other collateral pools. The Midland Debtors defaulted under the Fixed
Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement on April 9, 2010 for non-payment of interest, and Midland
became special servicer under the loan on April 19, 2010.
2. Midland objects to the Motion on a number of grounds, including that Island
Hospitality, Inc. (Island) the hotel management company, has contractually agreed with the
Debtors and the lender that it is not entitled to receive payments during any period of time that
any amount due and owing to the Lender under the Note and the Loan Agreement is not paid
when due. See Conditional Assignment of Management Agreement, paragraph 7 and Letter to
Island dated May 11, 2010, attached hereto as Exhibits A & B, respectively. The agreement
includes a subordination agreement (see paragraph 6) whereby Islands Management Agreement
(and its rights thereunder) is subordinate to Midlands liens. This Court is compelled to
recognize such a subordination agreement under 11 U.S.C. 510. None of the above provisions
have been waived by Midland. Neither Island nor the Midland Debtors have requested a waiver

$412,701, 271. Replacement Note A-1 was assigned to LaSalle Bank National
Association as trustee for the holders of the LB-UBS Commercial Mortgage Trust 2007-
C6. Bank of America, N.A. is the successor-in-interest to LaSalle Bank National
Association (the Fixed Rate Trustee). Replacement Note A-1 is currently held by the
Fixed Rate Trustee. Replacement Note A-2 was assigned to and is currently held by the
trustee for the holders of the LB-UBS Commercial Mortgage Trust 2007-C7.
2
The Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan is secured by cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted
first priority mortgages, liens and security interests on forty-five (45) hotel properties and
their contents and assets related thereto (collectively, the Midland Properties) and the
other collateral, including all cash collateral as such term has meaning under section
363 of the Bankruptcy Code, generated by the Midland Debtors hotel and business
operations with respect to the Midland Properties, as set forth in the Fixed Rate Mortgage
Loan Agreement.

of such provisions nor have they inquired as to the terms upon which a waiver might be granted
and the provisions remain in full force and effect.
3. Presumably, the Debtors propose to fund part of the payments to Island from
Midlands cash collateral. Based on the Conditional Assignment, Island is not entitled to any
payment from or attributable to the Midland Properties. It is also possible that Island has similar
agreements with other secured lenders.
4. Paragraph 10 of the Conditional Assignment notes that any Rents and other
income and proceeds from the Properties (including, without limitation, credit card receivables)
are to be deposited directly into an Eligible Account controlled by the Lender. It also includes
Islands agreement to deposit any Rents received by [Island] into such account (or such other
account as) Lender may specify in writing. If the Debtors seek the approval for Island to
perform all of its obligations under the Management Agreement, Island must perform that
obligation as well.
5. As discussed in Midlands Objection to Motion to Use Cash Collateral and
Ronald Greenspans Declaration filed in support thereof, Midlands cash collateral was diverted
by the Debtors in the Spring of this year. Midland had made numerous requests of the Debtors
for the documentation used to effectuate the diversion and none has been produced. One fact
Midland does know is that, when the lockboxes were restored in May 2010, Island signed that
documentation. It is Midlands belief, therefore, that Island was actively involved in the initial
diversion of Midlands cash collateral in derogation of its obligations under the Conditional

Assignment, including its duty to notify Midland (or the Master Servicer) of a breach of the
Conditional Assignment of which it had knowledge.
Local Rule 9013-1(a)
6. This Objection includes citations to the applicable rules and statutory authorities
as support and a discussion of their application to this Objection. Accordingly, Midland submits
that this Objection satisfies Rule 9013-1(a) of the Local Rules for the Southern District of New
York and respectfully requests the waiver of the need to file a supporting memorandum of law.

Wherefore, Premises considered, Midland prays that upon hearing the Motion, that the
Court will deny the same and grant Midland such other and further relief to which it might show
itself justly entitled.

Instrument, the Management Agreement shall be deemed amended to release such Individual
Property from the terms thereof and this Assignment shall automatically terminate with respect
solely to such Individual Property upon the occurrence of such release. Upon any such release, the
terms of the Management Agreement and this Assignment shall otherwise remain unmodified and
in full force and effect (and at the request of any party hereto the applicable parties shall execute
such documentation as is reasonably necessary to evidence such amendment to the Management
Agreement). Furthermore, in connection with such release Operator and Manager shall enter into
a separate replacement management agreement with respect to the Individual Property released,

term equal to the remaining balance of the term of the Management Agreement), provided that in

commenced any action or given or received any notice for the purpose of terminating the
Management Agreement and (d) the Management Fees and all other sums due and payable to
Manager under the Management Agreement have been paid in full except such amounts as are

insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, (b) there exists an Event of
Default, or (c) there exists a default by Manager under the Management Agreement during the term
of this Assignment that continues beyond any applicable notice and cure periods thereunder, then
in any such event, at the option of Lender exercised by written notice to Borrower, Operator and
Manager, Lender may exercise its rights under this Assignment and may immediately terminate the
Management Agreement and require Manager to transfer its responsibility for the management of
the Properties to a Qualified Manager pursuant to a Replacement Management Agreement.
6. Subordination of Management Agreement. The Management Agreement
and any and all liens, rights and interests (whether choate or inchoate and including, without
limitation, all mechanic's and materialmen's liens under applicable law) owed, claimed or held, by
Manager in and to each Property, are and shall be in all respects subordinate and inferior to the
liens and security interests created or to be created for the benefit of Lender, and securing the
repayment of the Note and the obligations under the Loan Agreement, including, without
limitation, those created under the Security Instruments and filed or to be filed of record in the
public records maintained for the recording of mortgages in the jurisdiction where each Property is
located, and all renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, amendments, modifications or
replacements thereof.
7. Subordination of Management Fees. Borrower, Operator and Manager
hereby agree that Manager shall not be entitled to receive any fee, commission or other amount
payable to Manager under the Management Agreement (including, without limitation, any base
management fees and performance-based incentive management fees) for and during any period of
time that any amount due and owing Lender under the Note and the Loan Agreement is not paid
when due; provided, however, that (i) Manager has been notified that such amounts have not been
paid, (ii) Manager shall not be obligated to return or refund to Lender any fee, commission or other
amount already received by Manager, and to which Manager was entitled under this Assignment;
and (iii) subject to the provisions of Section 13 hereof, Manager shall be entitled to cease
management of the properties and terminate the Management Agreement (as well as seek other
available remedies) in the event that it is not paid the Management Fees due thereunder.
8. Consent and Agreement by Manager. Manager hereby acknowledges and
consents to this Assignment and the terms and provisions of Section 5.1.18 ofthe Loan Agreement,
a copy of which Manager acknowledges receiving. Manager agrees that it will act in conformity
with the provisions of this Assignment and Section 5 .1.18 of the Loan Agreement and Lender's
3
rights hereunder or otherwise related to the Management Agreement. In the event that the
responsibility for the management of any Property is transferred from Manager in accordance with
the provisions hereof, Manager shall, and hereby agrees to, fully cooperate in transferring its
responsibility to a new Qualified Manager and effectuate such transfer no later than thirty (30) days
from the date the Management Agreement is terminated. Further, Manager hereby agrees that it
shall, in the manner provided for in this Assignment, give Lender notice and an opportunity to cure
any default or termination event in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 hereof.
9. Further Assurances. Manager further agrees to (a) execute such affidavits
and certificates as Lender shall reasonably require to further evidence the agreements herein
contained, (b) on request from Lender, furnish Lender with copies of such information as Borrower
and Operator are entitled to receive under the Management Agreement and (c) cooperate with
Lender's representative in any inspection of all or any portion of each Property. Manager hereby
acknowledges that some, or all, permits, licenses and authorizations necessary for the use,
operation and maintenance of the Properties (the "Permits") may be held by, or on behalf of,
Manager. By executing this Assignment, Manager (i) agrees that it is holding or providing all such
Permits for the benefit of Borrower and Operator and (ii) hereby agrees that as security for the
repayment of the Debt by Borrower in accordance with the Loan Agreement, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, Manager hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and to the
Permits. Moreover, Manager hereby agrees that, upon an uncured Event of Default, it will assign
the Permits to Lender if such Permits are assignable. If in connection with a foreclosure, deed in
lieu of foreclosure or other exercise of Lender's remedies, Lender or its designee is unable to
obtain one or Permits with respect to any or all of the Properties (any such Property, a "Permit
Issue Property"), Lender may (without limitation of the provisions of Section 14 hereof) upon
written notice to Manager require Manager to attorn to Lender under the Management Agreement
with respect to any such Permit Issue Property (it being agreed that Lender may terminate the
Management Agreement with respect to the balance of the Properties in accordance with the terms
hereof). The attornment described in the preceding sentence, shall be in accordance with the
provisions of Section 14 hereof, provided that Lender shall thereafter have the right to terminate
the Management Agreement with respect to any Permit Issue Property upon not less than 30 days
notice to Manager following receipt by Lender or its designee of the related Permit(s) or a
determination that the same are not necessary for the operation of the applicable Permit Issue
Property(ies) (in which event the Management Agreement and Manager's rights thereunder shall
terminate on the date set forth in such notice).
10. Assignment ofProceeds. Manager acknowledges that, as further security for
the Note, (a) Borrower and Operator have executed and delivered to Lender certain Loan
Documents, assigning to Lender, among other things, all of Borrower's and Operator's right, title
and interest in and to all of the revenues of the Properties and (b) pursuant to the terms of the Loan
Agreement, Borrower and Operator have agreed that any Rents and other income and proceeds
from the Properties (including, without limitation, credit card receivables) are to be deposited
directly into an Eligible Account controlled by Lender. Manager further agrees to deposit any
Rents received by Manager into such account (or such other account as) Lender may specify in
writing.
11. Manager Not Entitled to Rents. Manager acknowledges and agrees that it is
collecting and processing the Rents solely as the agent for Borrower and Operator and Manager has
4
no right to, or title in, the Rents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Management
Agreement, Manager acknowledges and agrees that the Rents are the sole property of Borrower and
Operator, encumbered by the lien of the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents in
favor of Lender. In any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, Manager, or any trustee
acting on behalf of Manager, waives any claim to the Rents other than as such Rents may be used
to pay the fees and compensation of Manager pursuant to the terms and conditions of the
Management Agreement.
12. Manager's Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the parties hereto hereby agree that Manager (a) shall have no responsibility for the
payment of any Operating Expenses (as defined in the Management Agreement) or similar costs
(provided that Manager shall be responsible for the performance of certain obligations under the
Management Agreement), and to the extent that any such costs have been advanced by Manager
(including without limitation wages and payroll costs), Operator shall promptly reimburse the
same to Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement; and (b) may (subject to the provisions
of Section 13 hereof) terminate the Management Agreement in the event that Management Fees
due thereunder are not fully paid as required thereby.
13. Notice and Cure.
(a) Management Agreement Defaults; Termination Events.
(1) Manager shall provide Lender with notice of any event of a default
by Operator in the performance or observance of any of the terms and conditions of the
Management Agreement or in the instance in which any event which would otherwise entitle
Manager to terminate the Management Agreement shall arise (any such t;vent, a "termination
event"), in accordance with Section 16 of this Agreement (the "First Notice"); which notice shall
be provided simultaneous with any notice provided to Operator under the Management Agreement.
In addition, in the event that any such default or termination event is not cured within the
applicable cure period set forth in the Management Agreement, and Manager intends to exercise its
remedy of terminating the Management Agreement in connection therewith, Manager shall send a
second notice (the "Second Notice") to Lender in accordance with Section 16 hereof, stating
Manager's intention to terminate the Management Agreement. Manager shall forbear from taking
any action to terminate the Management Agreement for a period of thirty (30) days after the service
of the First Notice, and for an additional period of sixty (60) days after the service of the Second
Notice (if such Second Notice is required, as set forth above). Furthermore, Manager shall not
terminate the Management Agreement in the event Lender shall (within the initial thirty (30) day
time period set forth in the preceding sentence) have commenced and thereafter shall diligently
pursue the cure of any such default.
(2) No notice given by Manager to Operator shall be effective as a notice
under the Management Agreement unless the applicable duplicate notice to Lender which is
required under the immediately preceding paragraph (a) (either the First Notice or the Second
Notice, as the case may be) is given to Lender in accordance with this Agreement. It is understood
that any failure by Manager to give such a duplicate notice (either the First Notice or the Second
Notice, as the case may be) to Lender shall not be a default by Manager either under this
Agreement or under the Management Agreement, but rather shall operate only to void the
5
effectiveness of any such notice by Manager to Operator, as the case may be, under the
Management Agreement.
(3) Manager agrees to accept performance by Lender with the same force
and effect as if same were performed by Operator, as the case may be, in accordance with the
provisions and within the cure periods prescribed in the Management Agreement.
Except as specifically limited in the foregoing paragraphs, nothing herein shall preclude Manager
from exercising any of its rights or remedies against Operator with respect to any default by
Operator under the Management Agreement.
(b) Loan Defaults. Lender shall provide Manager with copies of any notices of
any Event ofDefault under the Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 16 of
this Agreement; which notice shall be provided simultaneous with (and by the same means as) any
notice provided to Borrower or Operator under the Loan Documents. The failure to so provide
such notice shall not preclude Lender from exercising any of its rights or remedies against
Borrower and/or Operator with respect to any such Event of Default under the Loan Documents.
14. Attornment.
(a) Manager hereby acknowledges that pursuant to the terms of the Loan
Agreement and the Security Instruments, Lender or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale, deed in lieu
of foreclosure or other similar transfer, as applicable, is granted certain rights to terminate any of
the Operating Leases prior to or in connection with a foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or
other similar transfer. In the event Lender or such as applicable, elects to terminate one
or more Operating Leases either in connection with a foreclosure or as otherwise permitted at1.d
does not then elect to terminate the Management Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 5
hereof, Manager shalJ attorn to Lender or such purchaser as "Lessee" under the Management
Agreement, for the balance of the remaining term thereof (and any renewals thereof which may be
effected in accordance with the Management Agreement) or until the Management Agreement is
sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, with the same force and effect as
if Lender or such purchaser were the "Lessee" lmder the Management Agreement. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate the Lender or any such purchaser to cure
any default by Operator under the Management Agreement occurring prior to any date on which
Lender or such purchaser shall succeed to the rights of "Lessee" under the Management
Agreement. In addition, Lender and any such purchaser shall in no event (a) be liable to the
Manager for any act or omission of any prior "Lessee" under the Management Agreement, (b) be
subject to any offset or defense which the Manager might have against any prior "Lessee" under
the Management Agreement, or (c) be liable to the Manager for any liability or obligation of any
prior "Lessee" under the Management Agreement occurring prior to the date that the Lender or any
such purchaser succeeds to the interest of"Lessee" under the Management Agreement.
(b) In the event any Operating Lease is terminated by Borrower or Operating
Lessee (as opposed to a termination of any Operating Lease by Lender in connection with Lender's
exercise of its rights under the Loan Documents) other than in connection with a transfer of the
Property to a new owner as contemplated in Section 3 hereof, Manager shall recognize and attorn
to Borrower as Operator's successor under the Management Agreement as the same relates to the
6
applicable Property(ies), and all references herein with respect to such Property(ies) to Operator
shall be deemed to refer to Borrower. None of the foregoing shall in any way alter, limit, modify
or impair Lender's lien on the Properties and Lender's rights and the remedies hereunder and under
any of the other Loan Documents; nor shall any of the foregoing be deemed a consent by Lender to
the termination of any Operating Lease (it being understood and agreed that neither Borrower nor
Operator is permitted to terminate any Operating Lease absent Lender's consent to be granted or
withheld in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents).
15. Governing Law. This Assignment shall be governed, construed, applied and
enforced in accordance with Section 10.3 of the Loan Agreement.
16. Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be given and shall
become effective as provided in Section 10.6 of the Loan Agreement.

Manager for its lost Management Fees. Manager shall promptly remit any additional amount to
Lessee. In the event any jurisdiction would permit both Manager and. Lessee to seek an award for
their loss of business interests (respectively), this section shall not prohibit Lessee from making a
separate claim therefor. If, however, the whole or any part of the Hotel is condemned by any
Condemnor for its temporary use or occupancy, and the Hotel is still suitable for its Primary
Intended Use; and not Uneconomic for its Primary Intended Use, this Agreement shall not
terminate by reason thereof. Except only- to the extent that Manager may be prevented from so
doing pursuant to the terms of the order of the Condemnor, Manager shall continue to perform
and observe all of the other terms, covenants, conditions and obligations hereof on the part of
the Manager to be performed and observed, as though such Condemnation had not occurred.
