A No, that's not correct. Okay. How did you get to know these Q individuals? A I was an independent member ofthe Board oflnnkeepers USA. Okay. Q And while I was an independent member A of the Board of Directors, management reached out to me in advance of a board meeting and asked me to come in and take a look at the company because they knew of my past experiences as a restructuring professional. And how did you come to be an Q independent member of the Board of Directors of Innkeepers USA? A I received a call from Rick Press who is at Apollo asking ifl had an interest in serving as an independent member of the Board of Directors of a company they were investing money in.

Q So there was a one-time bonus for signing on from 2008 after that one year till 2009, there's not another $1 million bonus, it was just a one-time bonus? A No, that was a bonus for the renegotiation of my contract after the first year. Q Okay. Who hired you to be CRO for the debtors? A The Board. Q The Board? Who on the Board of Directors did you talk with to be hired? A I talked to each of the members of the Board, including those members who are affiliated with Apollo Investment Corp. and the independent members of the Board who are top-notch professionals. Q How did you come to learn about the opportunity to be CRO for the debtors? A I was an independent member of the Board since the time of the transaction in 2007 when Apollo Investment Corp. took the enterprise private. Q And it's from that position as an

Marc A. Beilin son would you go through your employment history, please? A Sure. In 1983 I was employed by Buchalter Nemer Fields & Younger which is a regional law firm, mostly based in California, but also with offices outside of California including New York. I was there as a partner. I left there, went to Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones where I was a partner for 15 years. And I left the practice of law about three years ago. During that period of time I've also, you know, owned some businesses and had my own investment vehicles which I was chief executive of. Q Is it fair to say your concentration while practicing law was in bankruptcy and restructuring? A Absolutely.

Q Did you go back and sort of refresh your recollection with respect to the topics to be covered today in the deposition? MR. DONOVAN: Well, let me object here. I don't think membership on each board was a topic, nor is it really one that one should cover in a deposition, so. BY MR. PARKINS: Q My question, though, is: Did you go back and refresh your recollection regarding in order with respect to the topics to be covered in the deposition as a 30(b)(6) representative of the company? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. You can answer it. A I reviewed what I thought was appropriate for purposes of the deposition involving the PSA and cash collateral. Q The next in the line is Innkeepers USA

Marc A. Beilinson Trust Maryland REIT, does it have a Board of Trustees? A Yes. Q Do you know who's on the Board of Trustees? A Most of the members. Q Can you tell me who they are? A Sure. Fred Kleisner, who is the CEO of Morgan Hotel Group, who was formerly the CEO of Wyndham Hotels, which is one of the largest hotel chains in the country. Larry Ruisi, who is a CEO of Lowes Cinemas and formerly a chief executive at Sony Pictures and Trimark. And Bernie Zuroffwho is a chief executive and general counsel to a number of companies both who have gone through restructurings in in-court and out-of-court process. There are a number of Apollo Investment Corp. people who are also on the board. I believe those include Jim Zeiter, Patrick Dalton, Justin Karval, and Schuyler Hewes.

Marc A. Beilinson My testimony is that, you know, as I A sit here today, I don't recall who the officers and directors of each of the entities is. There's over 90 entities. Q Looking at this Exhibit 2, we see various, I'll call them lenders identified and collateral identified with respect to those lenders identified in green color in this chart; is that correct? A Yes. Q Okay. More correctly, you see a number of secured lenders in green and apparently some mezz debt not in green in the context of this chart; is that correct? I think that's what it's attempting to A demonstrate. Q Okay. Now, going from the left side of the chart we see there under Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Fixed, LLC, you see they entered into a $25 million fixed rate CMBS pool with Midland as a special servicer, correct? A I see that. Q Forty-five hotels stand as collateral for that indebtedness, correct?

A I was an independent member starting in 2007, and when I took the position as CRO, in my view that made me no longer independent, but I did remain as a member of the Board of Directors. Q Going down the list here. Innkeepers Financial Corporation, a Virginia Corporation, do you know whose on the Board of Directors of that corporation? A I can't tell you off the top of my head. Q Same question for Innkeepers USA Limited Partnership, do you know who the partners are of that limited partnership? A I think my testimony will be the same with regard to every other entity on this chart. Q Okay. A I'm happy to go through each.

Marc A. Beilinson A That is correct. Q And the next column you have there in green the 20 hotel Lehman collateral pool reflecting a $238 million Floating Rate Lien and Senior Mortgage Loan, correct? A I see that reflected. Okay. And we can go across here with Q respect to each of the borrowers. Do these columns where the green is noted and the debt and collateral accurately, as far as you know, reflect the debt and collateral holder of that debt for each of those entities identified in green? It appears to, but I couldn't tell you A with certainty that those are the actual names of the LLCs that hold those debt. Q Okay.

Marc A. Beilinson A Yes. I just -Q All right. A -- don't know if it was filed on that date. Q And the debtors as of today are still continuing to seek approval of the assumption of this agreement, which hearing is set for September 1; is that correct? A That's correct. Turn with me, if you would, to Q Paragraph No.6 on page 4 of the pleading, please. A (Complies.) Q Take a moment and read it because I want to ask you about it, okay? A (Complies.) I've reviewed it. Q Have you finished reading it? A Yes. Q Okay. Going to about the last 10 lines of Paragraph No. 6, the sentence that begins: For the last several months, the Debtors have engaged Lehman in numerous strategic discussions. Do you see that sentence? Do you see that language there?

Marc A. Beilinson Yes, I see the sentence. Q Okay. It says: The Debtors have engaged Lehman in numerous strategic discussions to outline the potential restructuring of the Debtors' enterprise that would maximize the value of their estates for the benefit of all constituents. It is true also that during that same period of time, the months prior to the filing of the bankruptcy, that the debtors were engaged in dialogue with Apollo regarding the restructure, too; is that correct? A No. Q Is it your testimony the debtors were not engaged at all with respect to the Term Sheet for the restructuring of this company where Apollo at some time was to be considered a signatory to the agreement? That's correct, no. A Q Is that your testimony with respect to Apollo Investment Corporation? A No. Q That is not your testimony or -That's correct. A A

Yes, I'm familiar with this. Q Okay. Looking at the bottom part of Exhibit 5, an e-mail from you to James Zeiter. Who is James Zeiter, by the way? A Jim Zeiter is a CEO of Apollo Investment Corp. and a member oflnnkeepers USA Board of Directors. Q Looking at point number 3. A Yes. Would you read that, please? Q A My understanding is that all issues have been resolved between Lehman and Apollo except the following single issue. Q Now, do you know if Mr. Zeiter was involved in the negotiations between Lehman and Apollo regarding Apollo's ownership of the reorganized company? A He was involved in discussions between 33

Marc A. Beilinson Corporation -- did you have dialogue with Apollo Investment Corporation months before the filing with respect to a restructuring? A Yes. To the extent they had members of the Board oflnnkeepers USA, I was always keeping the members of the Board oflnnkeepers USA, and the Board comprises of a number of independent members and members who were affiliated with Apollo Investment Corp. or other Apollo affiliated entities. Q Other than dialogue with the board where Apollo had representatives on the board, the debtor was engaged, was it not, in dialogue with respect to Apollo becoming an owner of the equity of the company as part of the restructuring negotiated with Lehman; isn't that correct? A No. Q Isn't it true that within a few days of the filing of the bankruptcy case you had direct communications with representatives of Apollo with respect to their potential acquisition of 50 percent of the equity of this company coming out of bankruptcy? A I don't believe so.

Q Why were you contacting him if he was personally involved with this, did you not think he knew what was going on in any event? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. BY MR. PARKINS: Q You can answer. MR. DONOVAN: Yeah, you can still answer. A Could you ask the question again? Q Yes. Why were you contacting him three days before the filing with respect to the status of Apollo Investment Corporation's acquisition if he was involved in those negotiations himself? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. You can answer. A Because one of the elements of the PSA between Innkeepers USA and Lehman is that they are capable of selling 50 percent of their post-confirmation interest for an amount of $107

Marc A. Beilinson million, so it was material to Innkeepers USA that a secondary transaction was actually going to be executed. It wasn't important to me whether that was Lehman or Apollo, or Lehman and a third party, and in that term I meant Apollo Investment Corporation. So it was important to me that that be executed because it was a condition to Lehman's compliance with the PSA which was negotiated by Innkeepers USA. Q Did it have Apollo sign an agreement to acquire 50 percent of the stock? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. I don't know-A Q Apollo Investment Corporation, I'm sorry. A I believe the terms of the PSA provides that Lehman had to be able to sell 50 percent to a third party. It was immaterial to me as to who that third party was in accordance with the PSA. Q Do you know if Lehman was negotiating with anyone else other than AIC for the acquisition of that stock at the time you sent this e-mail? I don't know. A

Q Well, it is accurate that the debtor, through you at least, knew that Apollo Investment Corporation was the purchaser of the new equity as of the date of filing, correct? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. BY MR. PARKINS: Q You can answer. A I think I knew there was some agreement that was executed between the two. I hadn't seen the agreement and it's not material to Innkeepers USA as to who the purchaser of the new equity is, just that there is a purchaser of the new equity.

A I've reviewed it. Q Now, Mr. Beilinson, if you knew that Apollo had signed the agreement with Lehman, Apollo Investment Corporation signed the agreement with Lehman before the filing, why wasn't that disclosed in this pleading here, Paragraph 20?

Q Based on your experience, sir, is a transaction resulting in the present equity owner of a Chapter 11 debtor ending up with equity of that Chapter 11 debtor something that ought to be disclosed in a bankruptcy case? MR. DONOVAN: Well, hold on, let's keep this clear. You know it was disclosed, so I think you need to be more precise, and I think these are misleading. You know it was disclosed. If you're asking about this particular paragraph, you need to be more prec1se. MR. PARKINS: What I know was it said that they think -- we'll get to that in a minute, counsel.

To the extent that they were negotiating with both Apollo Investment Corp. to be the potential buyer, yes, I was involved to some limited extent in connection with their conversations with Apollo Investment Corp. Q In the context of the negotiations that took place with respect to proposed restructuring for Innkeepers, who negotiated on behalf of Innkeepers from the business side? A I did. Q Okay. Was there anyone else from Innkeepers? A No. Q Okay. With respect -A Not materially.

A That is generally what's said in a document I evidently received by Lehman that was not acceptable to Innkeepers USA Q So despite your testimony that you rejected this concept a week earlier, Lehman sent it to you again; is that correct?

We had hundreds of drafts going back and forth and whether I've seen this particular document or not, I just don't know. Q In the give and take of documents between Lehman and the debtors since you were the only one negotiating for the debtors, would you have seen a transmission from Lehman with respect to a restructuring proposal? A I think so. Q Okay. Is it reasonable to believe that this was, in fact, if it was transmitted to the company, you would have seen it? A That's reasonable.

Marc A Beilinson read back by the Reporter: "Question: Did you respond to Lehman about having AIC involved in the transaction at all from your perspective?") A Yes, I did. Q What did you say? A I told them that my intent was to do a comprehensive integrated internal restructuring of the company and that I thought it was best that we negotiate directly with Lehman and the creditors of this bankruptcy estate to come up with a plan that could be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court in a rational period of time, and if as a condition to that they had to have executed a term sheet with regard to selling what they received out of this chapter proceeding, I did understand that. I knew they were talking to Apollo about that, and I ensured that when I executed the final PSA, that the condition was that it be a sell to a third party, whether it was Apollo or somebody else was immaterial to Innkeepers USA Q So-A There would be a sell to a third party, but I did know that they were discussing a 51

third-party proposal sent to Innkeepers USA and was not acceptable. Q It was sent to Innkeepers USA by Lehman the exclusive party, as I understand, you were negotiating with for a global restructuring prefiling; is that correct? A No, that's not correct. MR.

Marc A. Beilinson transaction of some type with Apollo Investment Corp. Q You did know? A I did know. Q Okay. So my question is: Did you tell Lehman you didn't want Apollo involved? A No. I told Lehman that I wanted to negotiate a transaction for the equitization of their security interest in exchange for equity. And what they did post confirmation was important only from the context of the PSA condition precedent which necessitated that they sell to a third party 50 percent of the post-confirmation interest. Q Going back to this provision here regarding the Equity Offering Backstop in this Exhibit 7, provides that if AIC is not the new owner, then AI C will be paid a breakup fee equal to, bracket, 2.5 percent of the backstop amount or 4.275 million defined as the breakup fee; do you see that provision? A I see that provision, but I didn't agree to it. Q Because the company was going to pay the breakup fee under this proposal; is that

Marc A. Beilinson Q Would you consider those provisions similar to the ones we looked at with respect to Exhibit 7? It's right in front of you if you want to look at it to compare. A Q (Complies.) It looks somewhat similar. Going to the Conditions Precedent both in Exhibit 7 and Exhibit 8, the introduction to those paragraphs said: The Transaction will Company execute a plan support agreement and incorporates a transaction set forth herein, correct? A Q Which document are you referring to? I'm in Exhibit 7 and Exhibit

Marc A. Beilinson input into, but I don't recall whether there was an independent Moelis presentation. Q at? Bad English, but I hope you get the question. MR. DONOVAN: I think you may want to re-ask it, it's vague. BY MR. PARKINS: Q Were you present at a presentation or meeting with Lehman where Moelis handed out materials to Lehman? A I don't recall if Moelis or the debtor handed out materials to Lehman, I do recall there was a meeting where materials were handed out. Q Okay. And how many meetings were there between the debtors and Lehman where materials were handed out by the company or Moelis its investment banker? A I don't recall. Q Okay. So it's your testimony that you MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Foundation. don't recall what this Footnote 2 is referring to? Was there a meeting-- was there a presentation made by Moelis that you were present

Marc A. Beilinson No, I don't know what first docrunent they were referring to. Q Look with me then on Exhibit 8. While these documents have a June 2nd date on them, the Footnote 2's are different. Look at Footnote 2 on Exhibit 8, it has an additional sentence. A Yes, it does. Q All right. Lehman is completing its own quantitative analysis of the value of the company and will supplement this term sheet once that analysis has been completed. Do you recall receiving a Lehman quantitative analysis as to the value of the company? A No. Q Were you ever advised by Lehman that they had done such work? A I know they were analyzing a lot of things and had retained Lazard to do so. Q Had you authorized access by Lazard to all the company's books and records to perform due diligence? A No.

A No. Q Did you ever inquire as to whether Lehman had, in fact, completed a quantitative analysis of the value of the company? A No. Q Do you recall getting this document marked as Exhibit 8 with this footnote in it? A I don't recall reviewing the footnote. Q Okay. In the context of negotiating an overall restructuring, were you inquisitive as to what the other party to the negotiations thought the value of the company would be? What was important to me as chief A restructuring officer was that I had a view with regard to what reasonable and fair value was in

Marc A. Beilinson You didn't give Lazard access to due Q diligence? A I did give access to due diligence. Q Did you put a limit on access that Lazard would have for due diligence? A Yeah, it was not all. Q Not all what, sir? A It was not all documents of the debtor, so there was a limitation. Q Did it involve all the hotels of the debtor? A Did what involve all the hotels ofthe debtor? Q Lazard's access to due diligence, did it involve due diligence as to all the hotels of the various debtors? A Some information with regard to all the hotels, yes. Q Looking with me at Exhibit 2 just for reference, sir, did it involve access to the various debt pools and hotels and collateral reference there under the green coloration we talked about earlier? A Yes, there was some due diligence with

Marc A. Beilinson determining a comprehensive restructuring which included a plan support agreement with Lehman which put limits on the amount of debt that this could -this company should have on it in a recapitalized structure. Q My question -A So what was important to me was what our view as to appropriate value ranges were, not what Lehman's view of appropriate value ranges were. Q So the party you were -- you were indifferent to what Lehman's perspective was as to the value of the company then in the context of these negotiations? I wasn't indifferent. A

Q

You just didn't care?


It wasn't particularly meaningful to

me in making my business judgment determination as to what was a good restructuring on behalf of the debtor. Q Did you tell Lehman that it wasn't important to you what they concluded the value of the company was in the context of your negotiations? A No. Q Never?

Marc A. Beilinson I don't recall saying to them that I A didn't care what their views were. Of course I care what everybody's views with regard to value are, and to the extent that they wanted to discuss value, I had an open mind with regard to listening to their justifications with regard to value determinations just like I would have an open mind with regard to Midland and their views if they had any with regard to what they believe their collateral pool was worth. Q What you just said, where you said the term sheets that were being exchanged provided for Lehman to get a hundred percent of the equity of the reorganized company, that's correct, isn't it, that's what they contemplated, right? That's correct. A Q Then Lehman would be concerned with respect to not only the value of its collateral but the collateral across the board with respect to all of Innkeepers' hotels; is that correct? I don't know what was, Lehman was A interested in. Q Well, in your negotiations with Lehman, did you discuss the value of hotels across

Marc A Beilinson Speculative. A No, I have always maintained that Midland should receive a note for the amount that the court determines to be the value of their collateral. I actually in negotiating with Lehman, it was extremely important to me to consider the interest and the flexibility of other parties within this capital structure, and that it was my belief that by equitizing Lehman in full it created about $20 million ofEBITDA that could go to service the debt that the court determines is the fair value of the collateral of every other secured creditor, and that it would actually facilitate my ability to reach an agreement with Midland and other secured lenders in this bankruptcy estate. Of course, that was based upon a number of assumptions, and with regard to CMBS creditors, and it was based upon knowledge I actually received from Midland themselves with regard to their lack of ability to take equity themselves and the fact that this was the type of-- this transaction with Lehman allowed me to give Midland the type of consideration that they would prefer in restructuring. Q So you think Midland would prefer

Marc A. Beilinson the board since Lehman was going to be the ultimate equity owner of all these hotels? A I primarily discussed the range of values with regard to each pool of hotels. I mean, my view was pretty simple. Maybe it was too simple. It was that ifi was providing what the court determines to be the secured amount of the claim in a note to each of the secured parties other than Lehman, that when Lehman equitizes, the only equity value of the enterprise came as a result of them equitizing their collateral since by definition everyone else is getting a hundred percent of their secured claim in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code. Q When you were negotiating with Lehman, were you representing the debtors that owned the hotels that are in Chapter 11 in the Midland pool? A Absolutely. Q Do you think those debtors-- did you ever discuss with Midland in the context of the Lehman negotiations whether they shared your view that the amount of recovery should be capped at a value you determined? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Vague.

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Marc A. Beilinson having more than $200 million of its debt eliminated in the context of a restructuring, is that what you think? A What I said was that they would prefer a note as a form of consideration equal to the value of their collateral rather than equity or some other type of consideration that the court may deem appropriate under the new equivalent provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Q Did you have these kinds of negotiations on a restructure with Midland -A Oh, I-Q --discussing these points with them? A I absolutely attempted to and, you know, their retort at the beginning very beginning was, you know, phrases like "Give me back my collateral, I will never accept an AB note." They didn't show the type of flexibility that allowed to result in a consensual restructuring. I think that tone has changed substantially since this timeframe. In fact, in a conversation I had with Midland just last week, I believe that I'll be receiving some type of proposal with regard to a note structure. And, you know, they validated my initial view that

Marc A. Beilinson special services didn't want equity or other types of consideration rather than a note. So, you know, I actually thought about Midland a lot, and come into this plan support agreement, and still believe that I'll end up with a consensual resolution of this bankruptcy estate. Q Let me just be clear here because you talk in the first day declaration by Mr. Craven, you talk in this pleading about the consensus that exists with respect to the PSA you're seeking to approve. I see we have Lehman which has $238 million and 20 hotels. Identify for me what other special services or other creditor constituencies have joined with you in support of the PSA that you know of today. A Well, I'm in discussions with everybody. I think that Chapter 11 is a consensus-building paradigm, and I believe this PSA created the framework to build consensus around it, not just amongst lenders but amongst unsecured creditors, amongst Marriott, amongst franchisors. So, you know, is it my belief that this is the beginning of a process that will resolve, you know, a lot of consensus, yes, that's my belief.

A I don't know ifthere's a lack of consensus, that this is an appropriate manner of moving forward. Q You mentioned Marriott. A I believe these people are appreciative of the fact that I'm moving forward and continuing to talk to each of the special servicers in trying to reach resolution with them as much as I can on a consensual basis. Q But you can't talk about a different transaction than the one you are proposing under the PSA; is that correct? A No. Q You can't, correct? You cannot, I'm correct? A That's not correct.

Q How about the mezz lenders. Do you think mezz lenders is supporting getting wiped out under your proposed plan of reorganization? A I don't suppose that any party who is receiving zero in this restructuring will be supportive. I think that that would be the position of holders of the Series C Preferred who I'm wiping out. That would be AIC who's a holder of the Series A which I'm wiping out. And also Apollo Investment Corp. who owns the common equity who's receiving nothing in this reorganization. I don't think
anybody who is losing a substantial amount of money will be supportive oflosing hundreds of millions of dollars. Q Have any other special services, any special services or any other creditors joined in the PSA by signing it? A No. Q Okay. So the consensus of the creditor body is with a $238 million creditor, but

Q Have you allowed any third parties to have access to due diligence information in order to make such a proposal since the beginning of the bankruptcy case? MR. DONOVAN: I'm going to object to the question. A No. Q Others have asked though, haven't they? A Yes, but they haven't presented proposals which I thought had viability or import. Q So you want a proposal before due diligence is done in order to let them have due diligence, is that what you're saying? A I will look at anything that someone puts in front of me and use my best business judgment to determine how to respond once I have

Do you believe that PSA permits Q you to negotiate an alternative transaction today? A Yes, I believe that -We'll look at that in a little bit. Q MR. DONOVAN: Hold on, let him finish, please. A I believe that if someone submits a proposal that I believe has desirability and viability that I can discuss that. Q Have you gone out and submitted alternative transactions to anybody? A No. Q Your PSA has yet to be approved though, correct? A That's correct. I actually and fundamentally believe that this PSA is in the best interest of the debtor in this bankruptcy estate. It does more for all creditor constituencies than any proposal that I personally could come up with. It equitizes a hundred percent of $238

Did you show it to anybody? A Oh, I showed it to Midland. I talked to Midland about it prior to the time that it was executed and prior to the time it was filed and I got no reaction that they had an interest in topping. Q That was the day before the filing, correct, a day or two before the filing? A A couple days before the filing and they showed -- well, you were at the meeting. And-73

It creates $20 million of EBITDA that can be used to support the enterprise. It allows us to do deals with Marriott and other constituents because they believe that the capital stock is sustainable and they want to do business with us in the future. It allows me to support whatever the court determines is the fair value of the secured claim of each of the secured creditors. I think this is an extremely important PSA I believe that it is the benchmark of a successful internal restructuring of the company for the benefit of all. Q Have you shopped this transaction with other constituencies in this case, this exact transaction to get a higher and better deal pre-petition? I don't believe there is another A transaction which would provide a higher and better deal. Q So is your answer no? MR. DONOVAN: I think his answer is his answer.

So in the months that this Lehman Q transaction was being negotiated, you didn't advise Midland, at least, about its existence until a day or two before the filing; is that correct? A Oh, that's correct. Q Okay. You didn't advise any of the creditor constituencies about its existence and its negotiation before the filing, did you? A I believe that Marriott was aware that I was negotiating a transaction. Q Who was? A Marriott was involved. Marriott. Q A And not involved but informed that I was negotiating a transaction with Lehman Brothers to equitize. But you didn't shop it anywhere, Q correct? MR. DONOVAN: Objection.

I really just-- if you're A asking me whether I talked to other people about similar potential transactions, not, not exactly like the one with Lehman Brothers, because there wasn't anyone in a similar situation who had the ability and desire potentially to equitize a substantial amount of the debtors' secured claims. Q How about with respect to a different structure, did you talk to other creditor constituencies about an alternative to the Lehman transaction before the filing of the bankruptcy case? A Yes, I talked to, you know, Midland to see what structures they might find acceptable. Q That was two days before the bankruptcy? A Oh, no, that started months before. Q When did you show them the Lehman deal? I didn't show them the Lehman deal, A but I talked to them about what they would have an

DONOVAN: My instruction is the same. To the extent you can answer that without disclosing attorney-client information process, you can answer.

Marc A. Beilinson interest in in connection with a plan of reorganization, and I was completely stonewalled. So no, I didn't show them the Lehman transaction, but Midland showed absolutely no interest in being involved in the internal restructuring, so. Did you shop the deal to any outside Q investors to come in and do a third-party restructuring of the company not within the confmes of the creditor constituency? A No, I did not. Did you shop it since the filing of Q the bankruptcy case? A No, I have not. When the Board of Directors of, or the Q Board of Trustees met prior to the filing of the bankruptcy case to approve the PSA and the Plan Term Sheet, what options to that PSA did you discuss with the board had been explored by the company prior to the filing of the bankruptcy case?

Marc A. Beilinson and an agreement with numerous constituents of the debtor. I discussed with them what a free-fall bankruptcy looks like in comparison to a transaction where you have $238 million of debt taken off your balance sheet, the security interest go away having free and clear assets that could be utilized with regard to the entire company. We talked about what a free-fall bankruptcy would look like if we didn't have Marriott's agreement with regard to fulfilling the debtors' obligations with regard to the PIPs. We talked about the value inherent in, you know, freeing up $20 million ofEBITDA. Q Tell me about the alternative deals you described to the board so we could make a decision on this deal versus another deal. A It was our view that this internal restructuring was in the best interest of the estate of the debtor and it was the best viable alternative for the benefit of all constituencies and that in our best business judgment that executing this PSA with Lehman Brothers was a good result in comparison to other transactions.

Marc A. Beilinson MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Foundation. You can answer. A They were with me in trying to explore what constituents were interested in alternative transactions including Midland. Q Did Moelis make presentations with respect to alternative transactions with respect to other creditor constituencies pre-petition? A I believe they did. I believe that was a point of our meetings with Midland in Kansas City and subsequent to Kansas City was exploring what alternative transactions they may have an interest in pursuing, and the response was there were none. Q Take, for example, in April ofthis year, not too long ago, did Moelis make a presentation to Midland that include restructuring alternatives? A I know they made a presentation but I don't know what it included.

Q Do you know whether it included taking a look at the proposed Lehman transaction? A No. Q You don't know?

Marc A. Beilinson Q Did you instruct Moelis to go out and find alternative transaction to the Lehman transaction for the months of April, May and June through the filing to the Lehman transaction? A I asked them to discuss with me all potential alternative type transactions and look for the one that creates the greatest viability for the benefit of our constituencies which are the creditors oflnnkeepers USA. Q Did Moelis go out -A With no limitation on that. Q On your instruction, did Moelis go out and shop alternative transactions to the Lehman transaction? A To people external of our capital structure? Q Yes. A No, they did not. Q How about internal to your capital structure, did Moelis go out and make presentations with respect to alternative transactions to the Lehman one to the various other creditor constituencies? A They--

Marc A. Beilinson section of this document. I've reviewed it. A Q Okay. As I look at the Equity Offering Backstop here, I see Apollo Investment Corporation bought a backstop to purchase 61.82 percent of the equity. If you look with me at the prior exhibit, there was a different number of equity, amount of equity going to be purchased, slightly less. Can you tell me why? A No, this was another proposal by a third party that was unacceptable to me and that I let them know it was unacceptable. Q Okay. (Document titled Illustrative Terms of Proposed Restructuring dated June 4, 2010 marked as Exhibit 10, as of this date.) BYMR. PARKINS: Q I've handed you what's been marked as Exhibit 10, another Lehman production, numbers 41 through 50. A Okay.

Marc A Beilinson So there was a negotiation, you just Q rejected it; is that correct? A No, I received a document and I rejected it. Q I thought you said you didn't recall receiving a document? A Well-MR. DONOVAN: This one. BYMR. PARKINS: Q This document. A No, I said when I-- when it was-- if it was transmitted to me, I would have received it and I would have rejected it. Q And what counteroffer did you give Lehman at this time, if any? I don't recall this time frame. A Q Do you recall whether the proposal that the company wanted Lehman to accept was embodied in what's called the Moelis Presentation reflected in Footnote No. 2? I don't remember what was embodied in A the Moelis Presentation that was described in Footnote 2. I mean, if you have it, I'd like to take a look at it so I can -85

Q The sections designated New Equity, New Equity Capitalization Options and Conditions Precedent, pages 5 and 6. (Reviews.) A I've reviewed it. Q Do you recall receiving this document? A No. Q If it was transmitted to the company, it would have gone to you as the negotiator for the company, though, correct? A Yes. Q Do you recall Capitalization Options A and B becoming part of the negotiations between you, Lehman and Apollo Investment Corporation? A No. They were not part of my negotiations with either Apollo or with Lehman. I found it wholly unacceptable and consistent with, I believe, Exhibits 7, 8 and 9, not acceptable to the debtor, and I didn't engage in discussions with regard to this as a meaningful alternative.

A Are we going to get to documents which reflect anything that were acceptable to the debtor, because so far you've been showing me offers made by a third party that have been unacceptable. Q Well, we started out with the PSA that you signed, Mr. Beilinson, so I take it that was acceptable? A That was acceptable. Q So we started there.

Marc A. Beilinson purchase of new equity, does it not? A What this document seems to do is allow Apollo Investment Corp. to purchase equity that Lehman receives from a restructuring. Q Did you on behalf of the company ever go out to try to find a different buyer for the stock that Lehman wanted to sell? A No. Q I thought it was important to you that there be a buyer. A There was, and I was -- I was pleased that Apollo Investment Corp. was there and in discussions with Lehman. Q By the way, you're on another board of directors of an Apollo-related entity, aren't you? A Yes. Q What entity is that that you serve on the board of directors on? A Apollo Real Estate Commercial REIT, it's called ARIon the New York Stock Exchange. I'm an independent member of the board and I'm an independent member of the audit committee of that entity which is a public entity subject to SEC rules and regulations. 89

Q But you haven't made disclosure as of now? I don't-A MR. DONOVAN: You mean other than the SEC report, I mean, what are saying? BYMR. PARKINS: Q Have you made disclosure that you're on the board of a public company to the Bankruptcy Court affiliated with the parent company of this debtor? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form.

Marc A. Beilinson A You mean a document that was unacceptable to me given to, potentially given to the debtor, that is a provision. Q Was the transaction unacceptable to you as proposed? A illnn -Q Reflected in this exhibit. A I haven't read the entire exhibit, so. Q So how do you know it was unacceptable if you don't read it, sir? Read it, take your time. It wasn't important to me and I had no A interest in being part of a PSA with a third party. My interest was to have a PSA with a substantial creditor of Innkeepers, Hospitality and USA And to the extent that they had a prerequisite of selling part of their post-confirmation equity to a third party, it was important to me that they were talking to a third party that had knowledge, interest, and capability for fulfilling the transaction because that was a condition precedent to effectiveness of the PSA which I believe in my business judgment is in the best interest of an internal restructuring of this case. Q Did you advise Apollo or its lawyers

Marc A Beilinson necessitated by the Marriott termination notices. I also was pleased that Midland brought a DIP financing source to the debtors' attention. As I told Midland and I've told everyone in connection with this bankruptcy case, my goal was to get the best possible tips on the best possible terms and, in fact, have done so. I might note that Apollo isn't doing either of the DIPs, Apollo Investment Corp. or Apollo aren't doing either of the DIPS, but I was pleased that they were supportive in at least providing a DIP proposal. Q Tell me how you communicated to AIC that Innkeepers wasn't interested in doing a PSA with AIC. A Verbal. Q And who did you tell? A People who were at AIC. Q Who did you tell? A Well, I don't really make things a secret, I mean people generally know how I feel and what I intend to do. Q Rather than osmotic transference, did you tell someone verbally that that was unacceptable?

Marc A. Beilinson to stop putting in Apollo Investment Corporation as a signatory to a PSA? A I didn't advise Apollo or their lawyers of anything other than I had no interest in negotiating a transaction with them. Q With Apollo Investment Corporation? A That's correct. I understood that they were involved in negotiations with Lehman. It was important to me that they had an interest since they are a viable interested party in helping Lehman fulfill its obligations under the PSA, and to that extent I was pleased that AIC wanted to be involved, I was pleased that they were involved, and I was pleased that they reached a contractual relationship with Lehman. Q Looking earlier in this document on page 4 with respect to DIP financing. A Yes. Q Romanette i looks to me like AIC was considering doing the DIP financing for the fixed rate facility; is that correct? A Yes. I asked Apollo Investment Corp. if they would have an interest in funding the necessary DIP financings that were necessary --

CEO of AIC? A Who is the president? Q The CEO of AIC. If that's Jim Zelter, yes. A Q Okay. A I did talk to Jim Zelter on occasion.

that you continue to make proposals to me that are facially unacceptable, stop doing it? A Well, I try not to control things I

can't control like other parties, but, you know, I would go through their proposals and I would orally tell them what provisions were reasonable, acceptable, or not acceptable.

Did you have discussions with anyone from AIC regarding their acquisition of equity of the debtor as part of a global restructuring in response to this Term Sheet? MR. ERHLICH: Objection to form. A No, I had no discussion with them with regard to acquisition ofthe equity of this debtor. Q AIC clearly had different positions, they were the equity owner of the debtor? A Yes. Q And they had been evidenced in these various tenn sheets as potential acquirers of the equity or a portion of the equity of the restructured company, they were in both positions, is that correct, during this entire timeframe?

Have you had a chance to look at the pleadings filed in the Lehman case where Lehman sought approval of its transaction with AIC? A Which pleadings? Q Pleadings where Lehman sought approval of the transaction to enter into the PSA. A Yeah, I took a look at it.

Marc A. Beilinson made it clear to Midland, Lehman, Apollo, AIC, and any Apollo affiliate that happened to be within earshot, that they were going to receive no distribution from this bankrupted debtor on account of any preexisting equity interest that they had, that they were going to be wiped out with regard to the Preferred A, they were going to be wiped out with regard to their common equity. I was going to do a deal with, as it tums out, Lehman, who would be a hundred percent owner who had a condition to have an equity partner on a proposed confirmation basis, and was a positive feature that Apollo, who had lost essentially $250 million in this enterprise, still has sufficient interest and faith to talk to Lehman about purchasing 50 percent, yeah, that was a positive feature. Q Purchasing 50 percent of a company that has-A Fifty percent of the equity that they receive in a restructuring. Q Of the equity that they receive in a restructure. Now, is it your recollection in the context of these negotiations that Apollo Investment

Marc A. Beilinson restructure to Apollo, do you recall that document? A I recall seeing a pleading and

reviewing a pleading in which they filed it before Judge Peck, yes. Q All right.

I don't really know what 1146 does, so I might have overstated that. So could you let me review 1146 so I'll what the substance is so -Q If you don't recall it, you don't recall it. A Okay. I just want to amend my answer to the extent that, you know, I don't really know what the substance of 1146 is. Q Sure.

Mr. Glatt, sure, if this says I received it, I received it. Q With respect to the second e-mail referenced here, the one from Mr. Kornberg, there's a little message attached to it, it says: All, As discussed last week, we are attaching two term sheets: One relating to the proposed agreements between Lehman and Innkeepers and the other relating to those between Lehman and AI C. We think this approach more accurately reflects the transactions under discussion. And it goes on: I hope that we can continue the very constructive discussions the parties have had to date. Please note that the attached are subject to further comments and revisions by AI C. Best regards, Alan. I want you to take a look at these term sheets that are attached to this document and tell me whether or not you agree with Mr. Kornberg's statement that they reflect-- that they more accurately reflect the transactions under discussion

MR. DONOVAN: I'm going to object. This document appears to be somewhat irregular in that it seems to be an aggregation of documents, they aren't in consistent Bates order, so I don't think it's entirely clear or fair to ask him ifthese are the e-mail's attachments that were attached since we go from 127 to II 0 and then

But it is clear, at least from this

document, which is a Paul Weiss document, okay, that AIC was still intending to be a party to the PSA as recited right here in this document?

Marc A Beilinson coming to an agreement for which was an overall agreement with Innkeepers -- I mean with Lehman, which embodied a ton of elements. It involved conditions, events of termination, events of default, remedies, conversion of debt to equity, what rights would be there, what conditions subsequent there were. At this same time period, I was focused in on getting a DIP with regard to Five Mile, negotiating with Marriott, negotiating with other franchisors, preparing for a bankruptcy case, and running an operation the size oflnnkeepers. Q So what were your response to these
two term sheets?

Marc A Beilinson with regard to some of these provisions were inconsequential to me.

But it was important that Apollo or

5

someone else buy the stock from Lehman?

A Yes, because that was ultimately a condition precedent to Lehman's requirement of moving forward with the PSA

Now at this time, July 7, or so,

10

that's about 12 days before the filing of the bankruptcy case, isn't it? Am I accurate?

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

That's about right.


Okay. And these negotiations with AIC

were still ongoing with respect to the PSA as evidenced by these communications; is that correct?

A My response was I was giving people overall comments with regard to each and every element of these term sheets in an effort to move the process along, but obviously there were elements of each of these proposals which were not acceptable as a cohesive unit which would result in a PSA that I would finally execute in my business judgment. So, you know, I wasn't looking at specific provisions, I wasn't looking at how the overall transaction would be structured, all the conditions to it, whether they would be met and whether this

A Well, the negotiations really have to have two parties, and what I'm telling you, Lenny, is that I wasn't interested in responding to a term sheet, assuming it was sent by AIC to the debtor. My interest was negotiating the PSA and term sheet between Innkeepers and Lehman. The fact that Paul Weiss may have sent a term sheet indicating its interest in the various provisions including events of default and conditions precedent subsequent really was not the focus of mine and was likely not

Q Did your lawyers at Kirkland engage in negotiations outside of your presence with respect to substantive terms of the PSA or was that for you to do only?

Marc A. Beilin son BYMR. PARKINS: Q I've handed you what's been marked as Exhibit 15. It was produced last night by Innkeepers, Kirkland & Ellis. We got it last night. I'd ask you to take a look at it because I want to ask you some questions about it. A Sure. Q Okay. A (Complies.) Yes, I reviewed this.
Q Do you recall whether there was a meeting between Innkeepers and Lehman on or about April 22nd this year? A That wouldn't surprise me. Q Other than being surprised, do you recall attending such a meeting? A I'm not good at timeframes but -let's see. Four months ago sounds about right that I had a meeting with Lehman -Q Do you recall where that meeting was? A -- where we discussed this type of transaction. Q Didn't mean to interrupt you. Do you recall where that meeting was?

Marc A. Beilinson 5, for example, that page is entitled Consolidated Financial Overview. I take it that is for all of the hotels for the years 2007, '8, '9, '10 and projected for '11? A Well, it would be projected for '10. Q The remaining part of'10, and '11? I think that's accurate. A Q Okay. And the next page 6 is Fixed Pool Financial Overview for the same period of time. And these projections for 2010 and 2011 were the company's projections or Moelis' projections? A The company's projections. Q Moelis made no changes or modifications of the projections of the companies with respect to 2010 and '11 for either page 5 or 6? A I think they tested. We had day-long meetings where we talked about projections and what we thought. We had a discourse. We had views which were mutually the same, and we had disagreements, but, you know, essentially they're management's estimates.

Q Before this meeting on or about April 22, had you had any discussions with anyone from Lehman about a global restructuring? A Not that I recall. Q Okay. Did you go to the Board of Trustees for authority to prepare this presentation and give it to Lehman? A I don't think so. Q Okay. Did you talk to anyone from AIC regarding the preparation and presentation of this document to Lehman? A I talk to my board members all the time. Q Specifically with respect to this document?

Marc A. Beilinson versus GEN 5, GEN 6 or the Hyatt properties were going to do better or worse in this environment. We looked at capital intensive natures of certain assets versus others and how much CAPEX would be put in. We really looked at, you know, comparable companies and what their multiples looked like and how they are similar to ours and different to ours. And we looked at discounted cash flow, you know, analysis and projections to come to a feeling as to what range of values we believed each of the tranches, you know, had at this part in time. And, of course, that was back in April, and that's obviously a continuing process and I continue to ask Moelis to consider all of the assumptions. I consider all of the assumptions to decide whether the range should be moving up or if the range should be moving down with what's going on in the macroeconomic environment, a world that we live in. So we looked at everything in coming to a range of values. Q That sounds like there was a -A Not everything, but a lot.

What does an illustrative value mean to you? Well, it's a kind of a first A indication as to the range of potential values for certain assets that are being discussed. Q And how did these values come about as written here were reflected to the Lehman Hotels, for example, let's start with that? A That was kind of the value that was placed there after, you know, my financial advisors and Moelis and management and I, you know, looked at, you know, all ofthe elements of each of the hotels within each ofthe pools. You know, we, you know, did an asset-by-asset analysis with regard to the quality ofthe assets, the competitive features, what was going on with our clients in those environments, and what we thought would happen in the future. We looked at the type of asset as to whether it was a Marriott Hotel or a different type of hotel to determine whether the GEN 1 quality

Marc A. Beilinson Q Since there was a number of underlying work product done that gave rise to these illustrative value assumptions; is that correct? A You know, I don't know, it was more working sessions where we talked about all sorts of elements and I'm sure, you know, we came up with calculations. MR. PARKINS: Counsel, ifthere are underlying documents which support these, I don't know if they've been produced, but we'll look, but if they haven't been produced, I'd like them. MR. DONOVAN: Send me a letter, I'm not sure, they may very well be responsive. MR. PARKINS: I don't know, I didn't look through everything last night. MR. DONOVAN: Neither did I. MR. PARKINS: All right. BYMR. PARKINS: Q Going with me to page 13, I see that page is entitled Illustrative Pro Forma Structure. And this page seems to describe a transaction very similar to what is reflected in the PSA, correct? A Yes, it does.

Marc A. Beilinson each of the constituents in the beginning of a restructuring process, I try to gain an insight through my past experience as to what type of consideration people would like to have versus not like to have. What will motivate them to accept equity versus debt, you know, what type of enterprise they have, and I made an assumption early on way back in April after taking everything into consideration in a very hostile economic environment, that Lehman in converting all of its debt to equity may very well want the right to take some of that equity risk off the table post confirmation and realize on that value of the equity. So I made that assumption way back in April, I think it was, and it's proven to be a fairly accurate assumption, because, as you know, when people take a hundred percent equity, you can do quite well or you can do quite poorly as Apollo did in losing $250 million. Q When-A So I suggested to them that they could take half their equity off the table after they-after the transaction is consummated and that, you know, I believe even in that meeting they said,

A The answer is no in that five-month period. Q Okay. A Actually, that's unfair. I did have a conversation with Apollo as to whether they might contribute money into the bankruptcy estate for purposes of fulfilling certain potential guarantee obligations they had to a third party in exchange for a release. That of course I couldn't grant but the third party could grant, and did move forward. As you probably know, back in 2008, early 2009, I did seek to monetize a third-party guarantee against Apollo for the benefit of the bankruptcy estate and, in fact, they contributed money into the bankruptcy estate for purposes of funding PIP with regard to the Lehman pool in exchange for a release by Lehman of that guarantee, as I recall. Q I believe in March of 2010 Marriott
sent notices of default and franchise termination with respect to a number of hotels; is that correct?

A Q

That's correct.
As of that time, after that time, did

Marc A. Beilinson you approach Apollo for funding the PIP work which was the subject of the Marriott notices? A I talked to my board and I talked to Apollo Investment Corp. with regard to how I was going to consider Innkeepers' handling a problem that the capital structure which existed was unsustainable. There wasn't sufficient cash flow to pay its lenders and fulfill the Marriott PIP obligations that, quite frankly, I had paid lenders for probably a year when those funds could have been better utilized or potentially better utilized in fulfilling the PIP obligations, and that I believe the time that we needed to find a way to restructure this company to make it sustainable with a capital structure that was viable, fair and appropriate to the parties and could be dealt with in a way that Marriott wouldn't pull the flags which I thought was a-MR. PARKINS: Move to strike that as nonresponsive. BYMR. PARKINS: Q My question was -A -- value disruptive event in regard to--

Marc A. Beilinson Q Was it your position that you were representing all the Innkeepers' entities including those from the Midland pool? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. A I was a fiduciary on behalf of the integrated Innkeepers structure. Q Did you go to Midland and suggest to them that you were going to make a proposal to somebody to eliminate $250 to $425 million of their debt before you did that? A No, because I didn't believe that it had any negative impact on Midland. In fact, I thought that making this proposal was substantially in Midland's favor. It equitized another party of the capital structure. It took 20 assets that were securitized and it freed them up to give this company flexibility to operate in a positive way with its franchisors and other partners. It created $20 million ofEBITDA that could be utilized to support whatever was negotiated with Midland with regard to the fair value of its collateral which I as a bankruptcy professional believe they're entitled to in a plan of restructuring context. And I thought this was actually, in my view, in the best

And you can answer however you feel you need to answer fully and fairly. A I talked to members of my board with regard to always to potentially handle this situation. Q And did Apollo Investment Corporation fund the PIP work after the Marriott notices of default came in? Not that I'm aware of. A Q You would be aware of it, though, wouldn't you? A I think SO. Q Okay. At the time you made this presentation to Lehman, and I'm asking you to look here on page 14. A (Complies.)

Asked and answered. You can answer. BY MR. PARKINS: Q Your answer was nonresponsive so I'm asking you again. Did you talk to Midland whether it was okay to make this proposal with respect to its debt? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Asked and answered. You can answer again.

Marc A. Beilinson pools with respect to whether it was okay to make this proposal as their fiduciary? I don't believe I have an obligation A as a fiduciary to talk to other pools with regard to this proposal in advance of making the proposal. MR. DONOVAN: Is it a good time to take a lunch break, it's 12:15. MR. PARKINS: I've got one more document I think would be good to go through and then we can take a break. I think they'll tie together. MR. DONOVAN: Okay. (Document titled Project TavernMidland Discussion Materials dated April 28, 2010 marked as Exhibit 16, as of this date.) BYMR. PARKINS: Q I'd ask you to look at Exhibit 16, it's a document dated April28, 2010, on Moelis we'll call it letterhead, Project Tavern, Midland Discussion Materials; do you see it? A Yes. Q Did you authorize Moelis to prepare this document? A Yes. And, in fact, I think I was 131

Marc A Beilinson like them to consider. So on April 27 -- 22nd I put out to Lehman a discussion piece so we could talk through issues and discuss whether there was any kind of mutuality to move forward in a relationship. Q Did you tell anybody from Midland at the meeting on or about April 28 that six days earlier you had expressed some vision to Lehman about how their indebtedness would be treated? No, because I didn't think it was A anything other than a discussion piece and really my goal was, this was the first time that I could meet with Midland because, as you know, there was a general service rep until a few days before this, so Wachovia was there. All of a sudden in the middle of the debtors' crisis with value destructive events occurring around me with regard to Marriott and potential deflaggings and default notices, a liquidity crisis in an environment with RevPAR defining at a substantial rate, okay, I then have to switch over and start talking to someone who has never been involved with Innkeepers before, a special servicer who has never heard of Innkeepers before. So when I make that switchover in a three-day period of time, it's important for me to 133

Marc A. Beilin son involved in the preparation of this document together with management. Q Was there a meeting with Midland on or about April 28, 2010? I'm not good with dates, but I think A that was probably the time period. Q And that was, it looks like, about six days after the meeting that likely occurred with respect to Exhibit 15. A That's probably about right. Q Okay. Now, as I go through this document, I don't see any sheets in here which reflect the proposal you made to Lehman of how you're going to deal with Midland's debt, am I missing something here? A No. The purpose of this meeting was to try to assess what Midland's views were with regard to a restructuring of their debt. Q But there's no-- the treatment that you had proposed to Lehman in an offer to Lehman six days ago with respect to Midland's debt is not in here? A It wasn't an offer to Lehman, it was a discussion piece which laid out a structure that I'd

Marc A. Beilinson educate the special servicer as to what the circumstances are with regard to their collateral, what the circumstances are with regard to their borrower, what the circumstances are with regard to Innkeepers, and begin a dialogue as to how we're going to handle this crisis together. Q And you don't-Because that's the way I view it. A Q And you don't think that at the time you met Midland that it was appropriate to advise it six days earlier you had put together a suggestion of a restructure which eliminated the 250 and 425 million dollars of their debt? A No, because what I did with Lehman-well, first of all, I was subject to I believe a confidentiality agreement. It was a meeting to discuss resolution of our claims, and if you'd notice, those values were all bracketed. Q You're a fiduciary for-A Those were all bracketed numbers. Q At that time you were the fiduciary for the Lehman debtors and the Midland debtors at the same time? A I was a fiduciary for an integrated

Marc A. Beilinson enterprise which had a number of lenders, one of which being Midland, one of them, you know, being a number of different lenders. So it's an integrated enterprise that I'm the fiduciary for for the benefit of everyone. And my goal has always been to ensure that Midland gets a note for the value of their collateral, which is exactly what the Bankruptcy Code tells a fiduciary in a bankruptcy estate is the lender's right. So I want to protect the lender's right to do it, and one of the ways I was doing it was by creating the equitization of the Lehman portfolio. So yes, I believe I was acting in my fiduciary best interest on behalf of all constituents of this estate. Q So as a fiduciary for Midland, which is the largest creditor of these estates; is that correct? A I am not a fiduciary for Midland. Q Are you a fiduciary for-A I'm a fiduciary -MR. DONOVAN: Let him finish. A -- for an integrated enterprise which is Innkeepers USA, one lender of is Midland. Q Are you a fiduciary for the creditors

Marc A. Beilin son transactions, and that everyone knew that a 2007 transaction in this marketplace was somewhere in the range of 35 to 50 percent under water. So this isn't a shocking revelation, this was a revelation that was accepted by Midland and discussed -Q And this is when -MR. DONOVAN: Let him finish, please. BYMR. PARKINS: Q Are you done? It was discussed with Midland at our A first meeting. Q Did you discuss when meeting the honest fact that you met with Lehman six days earlier and made this overture to Lehman, yes or no? A I told them that I had met with Lehman and we were discussing alternatives with them just as I wanted to do with Midland. Q Did you tell them you made this restructuring proposal to Lehman, yes or no? A No, I did not because this was a thought process. Q After you made this Lehman proposal, or restructuring proposal to Lehman, did you go shop this proposal with any other creditors of the debtor

Marc A. Beilinson of this estate? A I'm a fiduciary for the entire corpus including the creditors. Q My question is: Are you including the creditors? A Yeah. Q So Midland is the largest creditor? A Yes, they are. Q Okay. And as fiduciary for Midland, the largest creditor, when you met with them six days after your Lehman meeting in that capacity as fiduciary, it was okay for you not to disclose you were thinking of reducing their debt between 250 and 425 million dollars? A Absolutely. At that meeting, we actually discussed the reduction oftheir debt. In that meeting they asked Bill Derrough ofMoelis & Company what he believed the value oftheir claim would be, and I believe his response was somewhere in the high 4's, maybe you could get to a low 5 number. Middle 4's I believe his was, and maybe the low 5's. And the business participants on Midland actually said at that meeting that they knew they were substantially under water, they looked at other

Marc A. Beilinson to do a better deal? A Well, the only other creditor in a position that had a substantial amount of assets that could be converted was Midland. And, as I said earlier, I didn't believe that Midland had an interest in converting their debt to equity, which actually has proven to be accurate in the fact that Kevin Simone told me even last week that they never had an interest, nor could they take equity. So there was only one party I could shop it within the internal structure to and that party had no interest. Q Did you approach any creditor constituency asking them to look at this Lehman suggested proposal you made and come up with a structure to address the issues you had and to compete with the Lehman proposal? A I talked to creditors about all sorts of things. Q Did you take these pages of the Lehman presentation and show them to creditors and say: This is the end result I want, can we do better than that, can you come up with something better than that?

Marc A. Beilinson No, not at that time. Q Have you shown this proposal to anyone else other than the fact that it was filed with the court prior to the filing of this stuff with the court? A No. Q Did you since the bankruptcy filing, okay, talk to third parties, not creditors, about doing a better transaction or an alternative transaction of this Lehman proposal? A Yes. Q And have you offered them due diligence access in order to make a proposal? A No, because none of the proposals were in my business judgment better or viable or accretive as a fiduciary to this bankruptcy estate. Q You have experience as a bankruptcy lawyer, how do I make proposal to acquire a company unless I get due diligence first? You know, my obligation as a fiduciary A is to do an internal restructuring. The Bankruptcy Code, as you know, was set up so that I have an exclusive period of time to negotiate within the capital structure to propose a plan that could be A

Marc A. Beilinson that this is going to end up being a non-consensual resolution with Midland. I think this is part of the process, including my deposition being taken by you, and that we'll enter into negotiated resolutions at some point in time, whether it's today or two months from now. Q So at the present time you reject the concept of shopping this company to get a different alternative transaction? I don't think that's a requirement A under the Bankruptcy Code or even during my exclusive period of time and I don't think that's in the best interest of this bankruptcy estate. Q So the answer is yes, you reject that proposition? MR. DONOVAN: Asked and answered. His answer stands. BY MR. PARKINS: Q That's how you view your fiduciary duty, to just go with this deal and no other alternative deal at this time? MR. DONOVAN: Object. Objection to form. THE WITNESS: How about a lunch break?

Marc A. Beilinson accepted or rejected by creditors and they have to meet the confirmation requirements set forth in 1129(a) or (b) of the Bankruptcy Code. I believe that we have an internal restructuring that meets all the requirements of 1129, is confirmable and in the best interest of this bankruptcy estate in the exercise of my fiduciary duty. And I tend to move forward unless a transaction presents itself that I believe as a fiduciary is better. I haven't -Q Better for you or better for Lehman, sir? A Better for the bankruptcy estate. Q Is that what your document says? A Yes. Q Again, have you created a due diligence room for third-party non-creditor entities to go do due diligence in order to make a proposal? No. I'm in my exclusive period where A I intend to fulfill my obligations under the PSA to file an internal plan of reorganization for the enterprise and will allow Midland and others to object to confirmation and to vote to accept or reject the plan. I, unlike others, don't believe

It's entitled the Amended Declaration of Dennis Craven, Chief Financial Officer of Innkeepers USA Trust, in Support of First-Day Pleadings. I will tell you it doesn't have the 12 inches of exhibits attached to it, it is just the Declaration itself. It had all the -- a lot of exhibits to it, about 12 inches worth, but I'm not interested in the exhibits. Have you looked at this Declaration? A Not recently, but before it was filed. Q Okay. I'd like you to look with me at Paragraph 14. A (Complies.) Q I asked you to look at Paragraph 14 because I want to ask you about it, please. A (Complies.)

A Okay. Q It's early on in the document. First you have the PSA and then you have the Term Sheet attached to it. I'd ask you to look at page 8 of the Term Sheet. It looks like this. You'll see the Term Sheet. You're too deep in the document. A Okay. Q Under Termination Events Under PSA and Use of Cash Collateral, in E there seems to say:

A Yes. Q Now I have read in recent days an issue that has arisen with respect to Marriott with respect to a franchise hotel in Troy, Michigan; is that correct? A That's correct.

Q Okay. And, as I understand it, the termination of a franchise by Marriott would be a triggering of a termination event over these various agreements before the court? A That's not correct. Q The termination of a franchise would not be a triggering event, a termination event? A With regard to all of these exhibits, no, that's not correct. Q I guess I'd ask you to look at Exhibit 3.

MR. DONOVAN: I object. I don't think you're reading the whole thing correctly. A Okay. So provision Eon page 8 says: The entry order of any order of the Bankruptcy Court granting relief from automatic stay ( ii) to permit termination of any franchise agreement, yeah, that is an accurate reading. Q Uhm? A That's accurate. Q Okay. MR. DONOVAN: And you only focused on-- I'm sorry. BY MR. PARKINS: Q Now, in response to the motion for relief from stay I see that the company has filed a motion to assume that agreement. A I believe that's correct. Q Okay. Has there been dialogue with respect to this issue between you and Marriott, because obviously this is a triggering event and a

A We've agreed to disagree with regard to Marriott at this point in time and continue trying to come up with a resolution which is accretive to the bankruptcy estate and Marriott. Q All right. MR. DONOVAN: Mr. Parkins, just so it's clear, were you suggesting that the Troy, Michigan hotel was in the floating rate pool? MR. PARKINS: I'm sorry? This is a floating rate pool. MR. DONOVAN: That's what I was confused by. This was my confusion and I think the record might just be -- I think you were asking about the floating rate pool and I don't think he says floating rate pool. 147

Q That it says that this agreement shall not be binding on Lehman unless and until a number of events occur, one of them is that it be approved by the Lehman Bankruptcy Court? A That is correct. Q Is that your understanding that it's not binding on Lehman today? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. That's probably accurate. A Q Okay. With respect to these companies, the debtors, you're seeking court approval of this transaction also, correct? That's correct. A Q Okay. Do you believe it's binding on you today until court approval is obtained? It's an interesting issue. In other A words, my view is it's an executory contract that I entered into and therefore until there's an assumption of rejection, it is binding upon me. It's an interesting issue as to whether I view it the same way with regard to the binding nature upon Lehman since this was made subject to their 149

It's a termination event that could A actually be waived if Lehman so chooses. Q It's also a termination event, as I recall, under the Five Mile DIP that any franchise is terminated, isn't it? I don't believe that's accurate that a A termination of a franchise in the floating rate pool would not be a termination event with regards to the Five Mile pool or with a Five Mile -- in connection with a Five Mile DIP. Q Okay. In Exhibit 4, which is the Plan Support Agreement, I would like to look at, I think it is Paragraph No. 11, Section 11, please. A (Complies.) Okay. Q Okay. Do you want to read it or are you familiar with it? A Sure. (Reads.) I've reviewed it. Q Okay. As I understand it, looking at the language right after the definition of Effective

Q It is binding on the debtors if you choose to make it binding on the debtors, correct? A Well, I could seek to reject an executory contract and thereby make it an unsecured claim that would give them damages. But, as I know, I'm seeking to assume it in the bankruptcy case. Q Look with me at Section 4. A Sure. Q You need to keep your finger on Section 11 to go back to the definition of Effective Date because Section 4 speaks to the effective date. A Section 4?

You already just testified that you believe this agreement is effective and that the debtor is bound by this agreement at this time, correct? A I said it's an interesting issue. I think it's an executory contract that until assumption and rejection gives me an option to go either way, I think that's probably more accurate. Q Are you treating this as an effective agreement now where the debtor is performing under? A I'm treating it as an effective agreement. Q So you agree you're bound by the provisions of Section 4(a) double i and triple i then? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. A I guess I'm bound by it so long as I don't exercise a fiduciary out. Q And a fiduciary out -A And, by the way, I want to make it clear, I'm not sure if it's legal, I mean, I've got

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Marc A. Beilinson transaction that would work under the Bankruptcy Code under 1129, you spoke about 1129 earlier. Yeah, I don't think that would fall A within my business judgment as what's in the benefit of this bankruptcy estate. Q Okay. But it's workable? A That was only part of the test, after I believed that the alternative transaction was one that was in the best interest of the bankruptcy estate. I also then have to make a determination that the contingencies and viability of such a proposal create a potential likelihood that it could be successful, so it's a multi-test, multipart test. Q Well, if 1.2 of the $1.4 billion of the creditors of these estates wanted that to happen in the context of an alternative plan of reorganization, it can happen then, can it? A It can happen during the exclusive period ifi don't believe it's in the best interest of this business enterprise. Q And the best interest of the business enterprise ends up being in the best interest of the person who owns that enterprise; isn't that true? A No.

A A transaction that in my business judgment is a proposal that has a reasonably good degree of likelihood that it's workable in every respect. Q In what? I'm sorry, I didn't hear you. A That's workable in every respect. Q So a proposal where all unsecured creditors get back their property is an alternative

A No. Q Okay. A I have made it very, very clear on April 28th when I met with Midland the first time that Apollo was going to be receiving in any of its forms no consideration on account of any of its pre-petition rights in connection with Innkeepers. Q I'm talking about Lehman. Lehman will inure to the upside as a result of this-- as a result of the enterprise being restructured that you suggest, isn't it the case? What's the question, I'm confused? A Q The benefit, the upside in the business enterprise under the transaction you propose inures to Lehman if the companies are successful, correct? A The economic results of the ownership of a hundred percent of the stock will inure to the benefit or the detriment of the holder of that

Marc A. Beilin son equity. It is certainly not just an upside potential as evidenced by Apollo losing $250 million. Q And is it true, is it not, that in the presentations you have made, whether to Lehman or to Midland, that the company projects that it will take three or four years for these hotels to turn around and start performing in a more normalized fashion; is that correct? A I don't know what you mean by a more normalized fashion after three or four years, if you could be more specific, I'm happy to give a direct response. Well, do you think these hotels performance will turn around significantly in the next three or four years? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. A I believe that there is upside potential and I do believe that there will be an increase in Rev PAR, R-e-v-P-A-R, over time.

In your judgment, how much higher and better does an alternative transaction have to be for Lehman before you will exercise your rights under Section 25( c)? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form.

Marc A. Beilinson Q Okay. The first paragraph: In this presentation we are running a scenario where projections have been developed on a hotel-by-hotel basis for the portfolio. Management estimates financial performance will not return to 2007 levels for at least four to six years. Describe what the 2007 levels performance were. A They were -- they were certainly actually better than they are today and I think that this statement probably reflects my view, right, which is, in five or six years they'll get back to historic highs which was essentially in 2007. Q So do you believe that the performance of the hotels will gradually increase over the next yean? A I hope so. Q Okay. That's your estimate of financial performance, do you think it will just be a one-time shot or it will increase gradually? A I think it will be extremely gradual. Q Okay. A There will be potentially some going backwards before it goes forward again. Q Are you aware that the Lehman-Apollo

Marc A. Beilinson Q Okay. Can you point me to the provision that says you can do that, if it's worse for Lehman, if it's worse for Lehman you think you can exercise your fiduciary out? A Yes. MR. DONOVAN: Asked and answered. BY MR. PARKINS: Q Okay. If that's what you think this document says, we'll proceed. So if a transaction were better for Midland than proposed under this transaction, and worse for Lehman, you're going to look at this as an enterprise or you're going to look at it by creditor for whom you are fiduciary? A I'm a fiduciary for the corporate which is an integrated enterprise and will look at what's in the best interest of the estate. Q The estate, there are 70 estates. A I understand that. Q Okay? So for the estates of the Midland debtors, are you going to look out for the interest of the Midland debtors' estates or the Apollo or the other Lehman debtors' estates, which ones?

DONOVAN: I'm going to object to the form. I think -MR. PARKINS: I'm sorry? MR. DONOVAN: I'm going to object to the form. I think it depends what you're referring to as a conflict there. BYMR. PARKINS: Q Well, conflict, it's better for Midland and worse for Lehman, for those debtors, the Midland debtors and the Lehman tranche or Lehman pool, how does that get worked out in your mind? If I'm faced with those issues, I'll A deal with them at the time that a particular issue is faced, and I'll deal with it accordingly. Q If a motion to determine exclusivity were filed by someone who had a better proposal for every pool of debt but Lehman, would you agree to A

Marc A. Beilinson to, negotiate with me and have their rights under 1129. So at this point in time I see no reason to move forward with anything other than an internal restructuring of this enterprise. Q You say two DIP lenders in support of the transaction, you include Five Mile in that; is that correct? A Well, they support doing the DIP for purposes of protecting the value of the fixed pool portfolios and two others. In fact, in the context of the Q negotiations with Five Mile for the DIP, you didn't tell them until right before the filing that there was a Lehman transaction in place, did you? A No, I told them before the transaction, before -Q Just before? A Before they executed the transaction. Q Just before? A What's your point? My question is you told them just Q before, not during the four months or the month before the DIP was being negotiated, you didn't tell them there was a Lehman transaction in play.

Marc A. Beilinson that-MR. DONOVAN: Objection-Q -- termination of exclusivity? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Vague. Form. A I'm not going to prejudge what a proposal looks like. Ifi happen to get one, I'll look at it, and make a business judgment at the time. Q Does the proposal have to be the firm alternative transaction you described earlier? A No. I think I've made it clear that Section 25 sub (a) is a fiduciary out that I can exercise in my business judgment. Q And, therefore, since you are not saying you won't engage in the dialogue, will you engage in a dialogue after people do due diligence? A No. Right now I believe that this integrated PSA that has Marriott on board, two DIP lenders on board, to do an internal restructuring of this enterprise is clearly in the best interest of the bankruptcy estate. I intend to move forward and file a plan in the next 30 days that all creditor constituencies can then look at, consent to, object

Marc A. Beilinson A That was a few days before the transaction. Q Okay. You're not saying that Five Mile is in support of this transaction? A No, I think Five Mile is in support of the DIP which eliminates a value disruptive event with regard to the fixed rate pool and, you know, they understand that's helping preserve their value as a controlling class of that entity. I think that's what they're supportive of. Q So, as I understand your testimony, with respect to the Five Mile DIP, they're putting it in to fund the PIPs for the fixed rate pool primarily-A Primarily. Q --right? Primarily. And to preserve value of that-A Yes. Q --right? Value which you say over time will increase, correct? You said the hotel performance will increase over time, right?

Marc A. Beilinson A I hope so. Q And that increase in value is not going to go to the creditors of the fixed rate pool under your plan, it's going to Lehman, isn't it? A No. I think we have to look at this at the time of plan confirmation, and I have an obligation to provide you with a value of your secured claim, at that time. So you will be getting a hundred percent of the value of your collateral, which is what the Bankruptcy Code tells me how I'm supposed to treat you, and I'm giving it to you in the best form of consideration possible, which is a fully secured note in a company that has free cash to support that note. That's much better than most fiduciary or CRO's would do, they'd be looking at giving you lesser quality types of consideration. Q Doesn't the Bankruptcy Code as you understand it, since you're talking about it with me, also provide that for the deficiency claim a secured creditor gets other consideration like the equity upside if it chooses to get that in the ownership of those assets? A No. Q That equity upside should go to

Marc A. Beilinson Let me remind you, you're still under oath. The same rules that applied when you were being questioned by Mr. Parkins would apply here, okay? A Sure.

I believe your Exhibit 1, your Notice of Deposition, said that you would be here as the 30(b)(6) witness for the debtors, which would be all of the debtors, do you understand that? A I don't really understand what a 30(b )(6) deposition is but I think I'm here on behalf of the integrated estate. Q Okay. I know you testified to be the CRO for the debtors; is that correct? A That's correct. Q Are you the CRO for each and every debtor in this case?

Marc A. Beilinson someone else in this transaction that you're proposing here? A I think when that party is averting to it 200 million plus of debt to equity, they deserve, with the additional risk that they're taking, potentially an upside, but potentially a downside, and it always surprises me in this uncertain economy that people still only look at upside possibilities versus downside risk. MR. PARKINS: Give me a second. Pass the witness. MR. DONOVAN: Who's next? MR. MEYERS: I'm going to ask questions but let's take five minutes before we start. MR. DONOVAN: All right. (Whereupon, off the record.) (Whereupon, resumed.) EXAMINATION BY MR. MEYERS: Q Mr. Beilinson, my name is Todd Meyers with Kilpatrick Stockton and I represent Trimont Real Estate Advisors. Trimont is one of the secured lenders in this case.

I'm going to try not to repeat the questions Mr. Parkins asked you, I couldn't hear all the answers but-A That's okay. Q --hopefully I'll avoid duplication because I'm primarily focused here. If you start with the third branch over from the left, which has the yellow box Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Term LLC, do you see that? A Yes. Q Let's talk about that for a minute. Do you understand that KPA HS Anaheim, LLC is one of the debtors in this case, correct? It's below that in the green box.

A Yes, I believe that Innkeepers has borrowed $121 million which it's collateralized by an equity and trust in those 20 hotels.
Q

But with respect to the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan you do have an understanding, based at least on what Lehman has told you, which is that they do not have consent rights? A That's also correct.

A No. Are you aware whether that loan has Q been sold, the beneficial interest in that loan had been sold into a CDO? I believe it was sold and now Lehman A retains various interests or its affiliates retain various interests but don't really know what the actual reality is. Okay. Do you know one way or another whether Lehman has consent rights with respect to the treatment of that $121 million Floating Rate
Q

Marc A. Beilinson presentation materials from April22nd that were discussed earlier today, do you recall that? A Yes.

Q Do you know whether there's any mention in here of whether Lehman controls or has the consent rights with respect to the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan? A I don't believe there's anything in this docrunent that highlights whether they do or don't have consent rights. Q
Okay. You don't know whether there's --I'm sorry, could you repeat your answer? MR. MEYERS: Or can you repeat his answer? A I'm happy to.

Q

I don't think there's anything in the docrunent that reflects whether I knew or didn't know if Lehman had consent rights, at this time I believe that I thought they did. At this time I believe
they did.

23 When I asked you that same question with respect to Anaheim, you didn't know one way or 24 25 another, correct?

Q You believe that at this time they did have consent rights? A Yes. Q
Okay.

A At the time in April22nd I believe that they had consent rights. Q Okay. So when this model was prepared for a meeting with Lehman to discuss this internal restructuring, your understanding at that time was that with respect to the floating rate mezz Lehman controlled that, so it would sort of be part of the global resolution with Lehman anyway? A The answer is yes, but it wasn't terribly material to me since I had a view with regard to valuation that was well below the $238 million first, so I considered the mezz piece at all times to be no different than the Apollo equity that 175

Marc A. Beilin son AIC owned or the Series A or Series C Preferred stock. I viewed people who were out of the money as out of the money. And when I was talking to Lehman, I always told them that the mezz was out of the money. So it wasn't really material to me whether they had consent rights or not. Q When you said you always told Lehman the mezz was out of the money, do you mean the Floating Rate Mezz or the Anaheim Mezz or both? A Well, the Floating Rate Mezz. I actually think the Anaheim Mezz actually has some value which is over and above the value of the first lien with regard to that property. Q Okay. How much? Don't know. I mean, I haven't done a A final analysis of it, but it's not immaterial. Q It could be more than 10 million? A I don't believe so. Q Did you have that belief about the Anaheim Mezz being in the money when this deal with Lehman was negotiated? A Yes. Q Okay.

Marc A. Beilinson Sheet and the plan contemplated thereby that the Anaheim mezzanine lender will receive anything under the plan? A Yes. Q Okay. Can you explain to me where you see that? A I believe the mezzanine debt that is defined in the treatment of claims and equity and trusts under the plan was intended to mean the mezzanine lender debt, which is dealt with under Footnote I of the Term Sheet, which involves the Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Floating 2, which has a security interest in the equity of the 20 hotels. It was not intended to include the Anaheim Mezz debt which would be included under other secured debt since I view it as partially secured by virtue of the fact that the property has a security interest, the property's value is in excess of 13.3 million. Q Okay. And when you made that statement you talked about what was intended, does that mean that there's a mistake in here or am I misreading this? MR. DONOVAN: Let me make an alternative, too. I don't think you

Marc A. Beilinson necessarily mistake or misread, so objection to form. A I'm telling you that I believe this document by virtue of Footnote 1 says exactly what I intended it to say. Q Okay. Look at page 2, look at where you've got-- do you see the different boxes and you've got one that's Mezzanine Debt? And it says: The mezzanine debt defined term will be deemed cancelled and the mezzanine lender will not retain any property or interest on account of such debt under the plan, do you see that? A Hold on, give me one second. (Reads.) Yeah, you know what, I think there probably needs to be some clarification here, in my VleW. Q And why do you now come to that conclusion? A Well, since you think there's an ambiguity, and I think there's no ambiguity, there seems to be a need for clarification. So if there's a need for clarification, let me go and do my job and clarify it. Q And we're all for that, we're all for

Marc A. Beilinson ever any discussions in connection with the negotiations that the Anaheim Mezz was, in fact, in the money and needed to be dealt with under this restructuring? A I've always thought it was one ofthe seven assets that would be dealt with with regard to other secured claims. I think that was the understanding ofthe parties. I'm sitting here in a deposition and my partner to the PSA isn't here, but I think that would be my belief as to our collective understanding.

Q Okay. But you don't, sitting here today, have any specific recollection of discussions with Lehman in connection with the negotiations of the Plan Support Agreement and Term Sheet that the Anaheim Mezz was in the money and we had to deal with that as another secured debt or something like that? A I had discussions with regard to every topic, I'm sure I had discussions with regard to that, too. Q Okay. But it's possible that Lehman has a different view which is the view that was what we read this to say? 181

Marc A. Beilinson hearing how or what it was intended by this document and correcting it. I'm just simply looking at Footnote 1 which defines mezzanine lender to be the lender in connection with the mezzanine loan with respect to the collateral security in the floating rate debt or the mezzanine loan with respect to the Anaheim property, and that's collectively defined as the mezzanine debt. Then you go to this page 2, mezzanine debt gets nothing, that's how we read the document. If that was not intended, we're all for having that corrected. A I appreciate the fact you pointed it out to me, and as I will always do, if that's not what I intended, I'll try to discuss it with my partner to the PSA and have it revised to reflect what I believe is a fair intention.

Q And under this deal there's no mistake, it's your understanding is that the floating rate mezz will receive nothing under the plan, correct? A That's correct.

Marc A. Beilinson cancellation of debt as a treatment in a plan? A I don't know. Q Does it mean anything more than just no consideration will be given on a respective debt? A I don't think so. Q All right. Now, back to the floating rate mezzanine debt. In the Moelis model, that April 22nd document that we just referred to, Exhibit 5, I believe, you said you didn't believe there was any mention in there of whether-- there was no mention in this document you believe of whether Lehman controlled the floating rate mezzanine debt, correct? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. A Which mezzanine debt? Q We were talking about the floating rate mezz debt and we were exploring a few minutes ago when you might have come to an understanding that Lehman did not control or have consent rights with respect to the mezzanine debt, and I believe you testified it was sometime between April22nd and the filing date; is that accurate? A That's accurate.

A That's what it says. Q Okay. Does that refresh your recollection as to when you may have first become aware that Lehman did not have control or consent rights with respect to the floating rate mezzanine loan? A No. Q Okay. Do you have any understanding of what footnote meant, what Footnote 1 meant? A Yeah, I understood the footnote when I read it, but, as I've stated, it's not material to how I viewed my interaction with Lehman in connection with the PSA since I thought the mezz was always substantially out of the money. Q The floating rate mezz? A The floating rate mezz. Q Okay. Take a look at Exhibit 17, if you would, which is the Craven Affidavit. A (Complies.) Q Okay. I apologize if Mr. Parkins

Marc A. Beilinson I probably did, but I'd have to read A everything to put this paragraph into context. Just reading this alone doesn't jog my memory. Q Okay. Are you aware as you sit here today of whether Paragraph 31 is accurate? A I have no context to put it into to that context. Q Well, what it says-- I'm paraphrasing, but if you disagree, you tell me. But what it says is that the Anaheim Mezz Loan is subordinate to not only the Anaheim, the obligations under the Anaheim Mortgage Loan Agreement but also the obligations under the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement. Do you understand that to be accurate? MR. DONOVAN: Objection. Form. Go ahead, you can answer. I don't know. I mean, I'd like to A look at the documents. Could you -- I'm sure you have the documents. If you give them to me, I'll review them now and I'll give you what my belief is today. Q Okay. Well, just to be clear. What this says, okay, is that the Anaheim Mezz Loan is

Marc A. Beilinson MR. DONOVAN: Yeah, sure. A Reading this paragraph and hearing your comments with regard to this paragraph, I think ifthis is accurate in what your assumption is, then my comments that, earlier, that Anaheim Mezz lender were in the money would be different. So let me just be clear. I'm happy to sit down with you, review the documents, get a better understanding on a current basis so that I can decide after reviewing of the documents as to whether my comment earlier that a mezz was in the money laying a high mezz may very well be out of the money ifthis is accurate and your assumption is accurate. Q Okay. And I'm not trying to trick you, sir. MR. MEYERS: Counsel, let me just state that your law firm has confirmed to us that that's inaccurate, okay? And I'm not trying to trick you, I'm just trying to figure out what was understood when the deal was being negotiated, is this a drafting error or was this an impression that the debtors were under that was mistaken.

DONOVAN: I object. I think he said he can't answer unless he sees the documents. So if you can't provide the documents, I don't want him speculate. MR. MEYERS: But he should have a belief as the lead negotiator for the debtor as to whether or not on behalf of the debtor that has a loan out on an Anaheim Mezz whether that loan was subordinate to 13 million in debt or 250 million. MR. DONOVAN: I don't disagree with you, but I think it's fair that he's overseeing a big operation her and he asked to see the documents. MR. MEYERS: Okay. MR.

A I have now heard a number of things come out of your mouth as to whether my counsel believes that Paragraph 31 is inaccurate or not It says there's a subordination agreement which says you are or your client isn't subordinate to the mezz piece on the 20 hotel properties, and all I'm going to say to you in this deposition is, I'd like to review the documents.

Q Now, does the plan that is-- does the plan that you're envisioning filing within the next 30 days contemplate substantive consolidation of any

Q Why is the Plan Support Agreement and the plan that's contemplated thereby in the best interests of Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Floating 2, LLC? A My obligation is to do an integrated restructuring of the entire enterprise. If a party doesn't have any value on account of its pre-petition situation, and they're not getting any value, it means that they're being treated as the absolute priority rule would require them to be treated under the Bankruptcy Code. So, so long as I am treating people in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code, and giving them rights to which they are entitled, and no greater rights, then I think it is fine for the debtors to be as a fiduciary signatories to this PSA. Q So we can agree, and we've already

Marc A Beilinson Q Well, look on the-- it does on mine, so. I'm looking on the top up here across 0-50. A Okay. Q All right. So when this document was done by Moelis, the floating rate pool, they were anticipating that the emergence debt would be between zero and 50 million with respect to the floating rate debtors, correct? A I really didn't have any part of preparing this page, but that appears to be accurate. Q You reviewed this document before it was submitted to Lehman, correct? A I testified that I reviewed it, not that I understood every piece of it. Q Okay. So you saw that Moelis at least was illustrating a scenario in which the floating rate pool could have as much as 50 million in debt post deal, correct? A I don't believe I had an understanding as to this page at the time it was presented in April 22nd. This wasn't something that was meaningful to me. Q If you had focused on this, would you

Marc A. Beilinson have been a number of things. I was trying to figure out whether this was representing that. I mean, because this does talk about Lehman getting a hundred percent of the equity or 95 percent of the equity, but it may have been leaving 50 million in for them as opposed to for the mezz lender? A Yeah. There was never any consideration on my part that the mezz lender was in the money and therefore it was always contemplated by me that they'd be receiving no consideration in an internal plan of reorganization, so this would have been flexibility to deal with Lehman as in their senior debt in connection with the company. Q Hopefully last question. Is the Anaheim hotel, is that necessary to the enterprise? A I believe every hotel is necessary to the enterprise, and I'm going to be negotiating with all lenders to maintain the existing entity as an integrated whole. Q Okay. If you received an offer to buy Anaheim for a price that you thought was equal or in excess of its value, could it be sold or does it need to stay in to make the rest of the parts of the 201

Marc A. Beilinson have changed that to just say zero because of your view at that time that the value of the properties in the floating rate pool were less than the property level debt? A I don't know if that's accurate, because this was begirming phases in negotiation which could include all sorts of potential variations. You know, you could talk about fully equitizing, you can talk about partially equitizing, you can talk about different types of debt, so I would probably create the flexibility which is embedded in these numbers, so I actually don't have a problem with the way this was presented. Q But would it have been your understanding that the 50 million would have been for Lehman as the property level debtor as opposed to for the mezz lender? A Well, I've already stated that I think the mezz lender is substantially out of the money, and that there would be absolutely no recovery on account of any pre-petition claim that I viewed was out of the money which is unfortunately one of your clients as well as AIC and public shareholders. Q Okay. And you're right, this could

A I have to take that into consideration, too. Q So you look at what's in the best interest of each debtor specifically and the enterprise as a whole? A I believe that my fiduciary duty is fairly broad and has to take into consideration the interests of the entire enterprise and all the creditors within that enterprise. MR. MEYERS: I have no further questions. THE WITNESS: Thank you. MR. MEYERS: Thank you very much. MR. GOTTESMAN: Why don't we take five minutes and then I'll push on.

Marc A. Beilin son MR. DONOVAN: Very good. (Whereupon, off the record.) (Whereupon, resumed.) EXAMINATION BY MR. GOTTESMAN: Q Good afternoon. Hi. A Q My name is Lawrence Gottesman with Bryan Cave on behalf of LNR Partners LLC. LNR is the special servicer with respect to two securitization trusts, one CSFB 2007-Cl and MLCFC 2006-4. It might be easier, sir, if we just go back for one minute to Exhibit 2 and we can point out which entities are at issue just to put it in context, if we could. A Okay. Q In the middle of page are a bunch of green boxes or boxes with green at the top? A Yes. Q Do you see that? And then the five, I guess to the right, starting with KPA RIGG, LLC and ending at KPA San Antonio, LLC, do you see that? A Yes. Q Okay. Those are the hotels with

And next to that is KPA Tysons Corner RI, LLC, do you see that? A I'm familiar with the property and the loan. Q Okay. Good. And then KPA San Antonio, LLC, are you familiar with the loan and property with respect to that? A Yes, I am. Q Okay. Good. At any point during the process prior to the petition date that started in approximately April and then ended with the petition date, were there internal discussions at Innkeepers with respect to these hotels and their loans as to how they should be treated? A Yes. Q Okay. Could you describe those for

Marc A. Beilinson respect to which loans LNR is a special servicer. Are you familiar generally with those loans? Let's go back over it just to make A sure I got it right. Q Sure. A Go ahead. Q Okay. Let's start at the beginning. Do you see the box that has KPA RIGG, LLC in green at the top? A The Residence Inn in Garden Grove? Q Correct. A Okay. Q And are you familiar with that property? A Yes, I am. Q And are you familiar with the secured debt with respect to that property? A Yes, I am. Q Okay. Next is KPA RIMY, LLC, do you see that? A With regard to the Residence Inn, San Diego, yes, I'm familiar with the property and the loan. Q Okay. And then next to it is KPA

Marc A. Beilinson me, please? I don't think we talked about how to A deal with each of the entities and all the properties in connection with an overall restructuring. We reached out to the special servicer with regard to each of these properties and entered into a dialogue with them which included the provision to them of pretty much all due diligence materials that they requested with regard to these five assets. And we began discussing with the special servicer the DIP facility in connection with Tysons in San Diego, and the cash collateral agreement with regard to all five of them. Q The special servicer that you're referring to is who? A I can't remember the person responsible at LNR. Q But it was LNR as opposed to Midland or someone else? A No, it was LNR. Q Okay. And did you make a restructuring proposal with LNR with respect to any of these loans? A No. I started off by providing them

Marc A. Beilinson with substantial amounts of due diligence information that they had requested. I then started talking to them about Marriott with regard to Tysons, which is one ofthe potentially deflagged hotels and the San Diego Residence Inn. I sent them draft DIP proposals with regard to Tranche Band C of the fixed rate facility, and started talking to them about why it makes sense both for the benefit of the estate and for their own benefit to enter into a fair financing on a priming basis with regard to those properties. I informed them that we were going to be filing a chapter proceeding with regard to the -each of the entities in the enterprise and I sent them a cash collateral stipulation a couple weeks before we filed so we could start talking about it. Q Okay. And, to be clear, there was no restructuring proposal communicated with respect to any of these properties, you communicated with respect to the potential DIP but not a proposal to restructure any of the loans? A Not at that time, no. Q At any time? 207

Marc A. Beilinson the hotels that we've now identified in Exhibit 2 as to the-A No, I think-Q -- their performance and their status and their proper treatment as opposed to the more generic Plan Support Agreement provision that you just described? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. You can answer. A No, we did talk about each of the assets and their condition, the attributes of each. They had budget information with regard to all of them, but with regard to the right amount of the secured claim with regard to each, any one of them, no there was no specific conversation. Q So there was a specific discussion generally regarding both that specific claim amount, for example, with respect to the KPA RIGG loan that's the second green box in from the right in the center? From the left, excuse me. A I think we talked about, you know, condition of the property. Economic factors affecting it. I don't think we talked about the loan amount itself except to the extent that we all 209

Marc A. Beilinson A I've started talking to them about what proposals we could talk about and it became clear to me that LNR's view was that they needed to get appraisals with regard to the property before they could enter into meaningful discussion with me and we of course have given them full and complete access to the properties and general managers for purposes of valuing their properties so that they can enter into discussions with me, and I look forward to doing that as soon as possible. Q Okay. And have you had any discussions, as Innkeepers more broadly had any discussions with Lehman with respect to these particular hotels and their respective debt? Well, the only agreement that I'm A aware of is embodied in the PSA which says that the balance of the debt after the fixed and floating rate pool cannot exceed 150 million dollars or Lehman has the right but not the obligation to terminate the PSA. Q I understand, and perhaps my question wasn't sufficiently clear. I guess the question I had is: Were there any specific discussions with Lehman or its representatives with regard to any of

Marc A. Beilinson acknowledged it was nnder secured. Q Specific to that property or generally with respect to the hotels in the Innkeepers' portfolio? A I actually remember a conversation with regard to a number of the properties which were specially serviced by LNR. Q With whom was that conversation? A That conversation was with members of Lehman or Alvarez or Lazard, I don't remember specifically. Someone? Q It was somebody in that group. A Q And at what point in time was that? A It was in the April to July timeframe. Q Somewhere within that broad period of time but you couldn't nail it down further? A I could not nail it down. Q Was anyone else in attendance from your side? A I don't remember when I had the conversation or whether it was by phone or in person. It could be that Mark Murphy was there, if it was in person, I don't recall.

Marc A. Beilinson Q Was there any correspondence that related to it that either set it up or followed up? I don't think so. A Q So it was just an oral conversation that may have been over the phone or may have been in person? A More than likely on something like this over the phone but I don't recall specifically. Q And then with respect for the next property, if I ask you the same question, the answer would be the same or do you have a specific recollection beyond that? A I actually have specific recollection with regard to the Garden Grove property, San Diego and Tysons, and remember talking about with regards to San Antonio improvements that were done over the course of the last year and a half. Q Can you describe those recollections? A Yeah. They were more geared to condition of the property and what needed to be done to bring them up to speed. With regard to San Antonio, I specifically was talking about the driveway that I think needs some work done. That I think that 211

Marc A. Beilinson more of a business discussion with regard to property conditions and characteristics. Some sort of general business discussion? A Absolutely.
Q Q

Okay. And going back to your

conversation from LNR. During any of those conversations, did you mention that you were in discussions with Lehman with respect to what ultimately culminated in the Plan Support Agreement and the related Term Sheet? A I told them that I was talking to Lehman with regard to an overall restructuring, I don't believe I got into the details. I talked to them about Marriott, and the overall Marriott transaction and how it interrelated with the properties involved, which is Tysons in San Diego which he specially serviced. I talked to them at length with regard to potential DIP financing proposals and why I thought they were beneficial and fair value to them. I also-Q

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

But it's fair to say you never

communicated that the Lehman Plan Support Agreement and the related term sheet contemplated substantial 213

11

Marc A. Beilinson improvements that we did in the last two years are sustainable for at least until the next cycle in six years. With regard to San Diego and Tysons, I talked to them about what I thought the costs were with regard to the PIPing obligations in connection with Marriott and what I thought needed to be done and what could potentially be delayed. With regard to the Residence Inn in Garden Grove, there were issues with regard to the pool area and some tiling there, there was some granite broken off that I wanted to get replaced. So there was a lot of details with regard to the property that I wanted to let them know what the general condition was. Q So you discussed over what period of time the PIP needed to be performed? A We discussed, no, what the condition

1 2 3 4 5 6
7

Marc A. Beilinson writedown in the secured debt service by LNR; is that correct? I'm not sure that that's accurate. A

Substantial writedown from the current

8 9 10
11

outstanding principal balance. When you say it's not accurate, what do you mean by that? A Well, I think the Lehman PSA says that with regard to the other properties in connection in the enterprise, which is essentially seven properties, can't have in excess of 150 million dollars worth of debt. It doesn't suggest what the amount of the debt is with regard to each of those individual properties.

19 20 of the properties were, you know, were they 21 sustainable till the next cycle of renovations. When the PIPs needed to be done, how much needed to 22 23 be done. Whether there was deferred maintenance, 24 what the deferred maintenance might be and whether

Q But the aggregate is obviously more than 150; is that correct? A Well, the aggregate, if you keep all seven properties, would be on a loan basis in excess of 150 million dollars, but on a value basis may be substantially less than that. Q
Does the Lehman Term Sheet permit you to return back any of the properties to their respective lenders? A I believe that it does.

it was material or not, so it was really kind of

And that would not be a termination

Marc A. Beilinson That's correct. Q If the lender took back the property pursuant to a lift stay, would that be a termination event? MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. You can answer to the extent you know. A I'd have to review the PSA. Q It happens to be marked as an exhibit, so let's go back. A Exhibit 4? Q Yes. A Can you point me to the provision, please? Q I will momentarily. Yes. Let me direct your attention to paragraph E at the bottom of page 8 of the Plan Support Agreement. I think you were looking at the Term Sheet and I'm looking at the Plan Support Agreement, sir. A Okay. So what page of the Plan Support Agreement? Q It looks like page 8.

Marc A. Beilin son worked together to get three other properties released from the general servicer to the special servicer, so those conversations obviously took place, you know, later because we really had to work together for a period of time to get him in charge of those properties. Okay. So you would say that those Q commenced a couple months ago in your recollection or am I missing -A They commenced at least a couple of months ago with two other properties a little bit less far ago with regard to. Q A little bit later? A A little bit later with regard to. Q Okay, so we can just chronologically be in the same field. Okay, that's fine. A Q Okay. Did you have any discussions with Apollo or I guess Apollo Investment Corporation with respect to any of these properties, the five that we've been referring to? A Only to the extent that I discussed these properties and the fixed rate and the floating rate pool with members of the board of Innkeepers

Marc A. Beilinson And does that refresh your Q recollection as to what the Plan Support Agreement says would be the consequence of stay relief with respect to any of these property secured lenders? A The relief, the stay relief would give Lehman the right but not the obligation to terminate the PSA if relief from stay was granted. Q But it's your understanding that if the debtor voluntarily surrendered the property pursuant to a plan or otherwise that would not constitute a termination right that would give Lehman the right but not the obligation to terminate? I believe that's accurate. A Q Okay. By the way, the discussions with LNR that you referred to a little while ago, do you recall when those took place? They've taken place over the course of A a few months. As you probably know-- is it Chris Brown? Q Yes, Chris Brown. A Chris Brown is the individual at LNR. Well into the process at1er he was special servicer with regard to two of the properties, he and I

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Marc A. Beilinson which included people who were employees of Apollo. Q But it was in your capacity as members of the board or as opposed to their capacity of Apollo the buyer of equity? A No, it was in their capacity as members of the board. Q And no other capacity? I believe that's correct. A Q Okay. By the way, did you have any discussions with the master servicer for these securitizations with respect to these properties? A Yes, I did. Q Okay. Do you recall when those were? A Probably going back maybe four months ago. Q And what was the substance of those discussions? A The fact that I was going to be a restructurer. That I told them in advance of defaulting with regard to the financial obligations of the loan that I was going to do so. It was a conversation saying that I'd like to start entering into restructuring discussions and that this is probably more appropriately moved from the general

Marc A. Beilinson servicer to the special servicer. I was trying to move the process along. Q Do you recall whom you had those discussions at the master servicer? A Not offthe top of my head. Q Were those memorialized in writing or by e-mail or otherwise? A I don't recall. Q And do you recall if any of the conversations with respect to LNR whether they were memorialized in writing at all? And that would include e-mails. A Some ofthem might have been memorialized. I mean, their request for information or providing them due diligence information, they needed access to property. There's communications in e-mail form that have gone back and forth between myself, Mark Murphy and Chris Brown and other people atLNR. Okay. And then just to close the loop with regard to the master, it's safe to say you never made a particular restructuring proposal; is that correct? A I tried to enter into discussions with

Marc A.

Putting aside your interpretation of your fiduciary duty for a second. MR. DONOVAN: Objection to form. A I think I look at each area and I say am I treating them fairly. And ifl'm treating them fairly and I'm doing what's in the best interest of the integrated whole, I think I'm fulfilling my fiduciary duty. Q But once again, it's not the question I asked. Ultimately the court can figure out what your fiduciary duty was and whether or not you met it, and that's for anyone in this room to decide. The question is just specifically what you did or didn't do. So, did you determine that, for example, KPA RIGG would benefit in terms of its cash flow from the proposed plan as a result of the transaction contemplated by the Plan Support

Marc A. Beilinson them but unfortunately in the CMBS community the general servicers have very little ability to enter into those discussions. Q By general servicer you're referring to the master servicer? A I was talking about the master serv1cer. Q Okay. I just want to make sure we got our parties straight. In connection with this whole process, did you or the company conduct any independent assessment of the burdens for these particular debtors as opposed to the integrated whole? And I did hear your earlier testimony with respect to your views regarding integrated all, but did you also look at it at all on a particularized basis? A Well, you know, I look at it and I say what's a fair value of somebody's security interest and I have to treat it appropriately in connection with the plan of reorganization, so long as I'm doing that I feel I'm fulfilling my obligations as a fiduciary. Q That is not exactly responsive because that's not what I asked. I guess the question is:

Marc A. Beilinson Agreement and the annexed Term Sheet, or did you not? And whether or not that was your fiduciary duty and your interpretation is a different issue. A I think I looked at a lot of these entities in that way. For example, I knew I needed to do an integrated relationship, integrated agreement with Marriott by virtue of the fact there were 23 hotels that were in default. Some of these hotels were San Diego and Tysons which I believe benefited from my ability to negotiate with them with regard to properties that were in the floating rate and fixed rate pool. I believe that other entities have benefited in the past because of cash flow that was generated from the enterprise that went into properties to improve them to the benefit of the whole. So yes, I did look at, you know, how all the pieces fit together to benefit the entire corporation, but also the pieces of the corporation, and that's just one example of how I take it into consideration. Q Well, with respect to this particular entity, did you perform that analysis, in other words, did it benefit in terms of financing a PIP? Is a PIP required with respect to that entity KPA

Q Well, did you perform that historical

Marc A Beilinson properties. I believe with regard to San Antonio the answer would be, no, they could not have done their historic CAPEX with regard to that property and fulfilled its obligations under the loan. I believe I can say that with regard to San Diego with regard to the upcoming PIP. I believe I can say that with regard to Tysons. I believe I can also say that with regard to the double thing. Q Okay. A I think there were benefits that they received by virtue of being part of the cohesive enterprise, that or historic which are current. Q Historic as in pre-petition? A Yes. Q Okay. And have you tried to quantify those historic pre-petition benefits? A Not totally. Q Partially? A I thought about it. Q Okay. Did you write down any slots? A No. Q So they're just still somewhere in the ether? A Yes.

And if I were to ask you the same question about the ability to service debt with respect to the other hotels serviced by LNR, would your answer be the same that you don't know sitting here today? I believe that if you're asking A service the debt without making capital improvements, which are required under PIPs, or are you asking without doing deferred CAPEX and future CAPEX. Q Let's just say on a current cash basis. Let's take it one step at a time. I'm just simply asking-- once again, it's not memory test, if the answer is you don't know, you don't know. A I looked at those kinds of issues and with most properties they didn't have sufficient cash flow to service debt and their capital needs. Q I understand, except I'm not really asking about most properties, I'm asking about this group of properties. A I'm talking about this group of

Well, Nancy Shanik works within our real estate group and is, you know, day -to-day a part of what we do, so she was aware of the ongoing discussions.

Lascher PIPs. You understand what a PIP is? A. Yes. Q. The PIPs, that Lehman would view that as satisfying the guaranty that Apollo had entered into. Is that basically what was being discussed? A. No. Q. Okay. Well, tell me what was being discussed in the context of this paragraph? A. What was being discussed is that if Apollo was able to come to some agreement with its lender, meaning Midland, on the guaranty, that I wouldn't get in the way. Meaning Lehman wouldn't stand in their way or object to that happening, and that as long as there were funds available, whether it be from a DIP or cash flow, in order to do the PIP work, we wouldn't stand in the way of their doing that either. Q. Now, in your recollection during the various iterations of documents that were exchanged by the various parties, and we will look at them in particular in a while-A. Uh-huh.

But you agree that this represented, at least on this date, Lehman's position with respect to the transaction on these points, correct? A. Yeah, I would say it's likely he did. MR. O'BRIEN: I think he testified he wasn't sure about one or more bullet points to be accurate. Q. Now, this guaranty language, generally the concept, as I understand it, and tell me if I'm correct, was that if the DIP financing being provided by Five Mile paid for the project improvement plan or the

Lascher their guaranty, yes. Q. And this was since the commencement of the negotiations regarding this PSA which you said started sometime in April of2010; is that correct? A I mean there's two --there's two separate documents here and our document with Apollo is, you know, represents the sale transaction. It's all part of the PSA so on some level I'm just getting confused when you are asking me about this because really our discussions with Apollo were about this sale transaction. Q. And you say they weren't involved in the negotiations that Innkeepers was involved in? MR. O'BRIEN: Object to the form. A No, I'm not saying they weren't involved in any of those discussions but in terms of my discussions with them about a guaranty, they were my discussions with them about their guaranty. Q.

Lascher issue for this short period of time." Did you discuss that part of his response with Mr. Beilinson? A I kind of remember having a conversation about it. Q.

Lascher of time, yes. A. There is a 45 day out for both us and Apollo in our sale -- I just can't remember the name of that document -- but in our sale transaction with them that he didn't want me to terminate but there was no, you know, there was no-- it was just a 45-day termination right, he would have no control over whether I exercised that or not. Q. Did you respond to him with respect to his statement that I'm trusting you won't terminate AIC? A. Well, I mean just to finish answering your other question. Q. Okay. A. He was saying he was trusting me not to terminate my sale agreement with Apollo and so I should just trust him not to do any -- not to --what does it say breach his obligations to us under the PSA. Q. Okay. But you wanted it in writing, I take it, because you got the PSA? MR. O'BRIEN: Objection. A. I mean I wanted it in writing,

Q. Okay. Following the deflagging? A Yes, so when the franchise agreement ran out. Q. At the time of the April22nd meeting, at least as to the Lehman hotels, did Lehman have any ideas as to what the value of its hotels were relative to the illustrative value presented by the company? A And why did that matter? Q. Well, I'm asking-- it will be the judge to decide whether it matters. My question is: Did you have any values in mind for your hotels as compared to the illustrative values presented by Moelis? A Yeah. Q. Did you have any values in mind with respect to the other pools of collateral

Lascher proceedings. The judge was very clear that the emphasis -- let me just finish so it's on the record since you've raised it. The focus of these discovery proceedings should be on the business judgment of the debtor, not Lehman. That subject was raised in the conference with the judge, your partner was there, I was there and she couldn't have been clearer so on those grounds we declined to produce anything along those lines. MR. PARKINS: Okay. We will deal with that issue, but certainly to the extent you're claiming privilege as work product, I'll acknowledge and accept that. As to the other we'll see what happens. MR. O'BRIEN: Okay. And that's all a prologue, I guess, to my instruction to this witness not to answer any questions about the substance of what Lazard may or may not have done as far

Now, Lazard Freres, I will call them Lazard for the deposition, okay, has been retained as the investment banker for Lehman. A Correct. Q. And Lazard, was Lazard at this meeting? A No. Q. Lazard was charged by Lehman to go do some work, due diligence work with respect to this presentation; is that correct? A Yes. Q. And they did do work, didn't they? A Yes. Q. Do you know if that work has been presented to us in document production? A I don't know. MR. O'BRIEN: Len, it has not and the reason is, number 1, it's protected by the attorney-client privilege as well as work product. And number 2, it's well outside the scope of these

MR. O'BRIEN: I appreciate it. MR. PARKINS: If we have a problem with that, that's what the judge is for. Q. So particular meeting -MR. O'BRIEN: Sorry. Q. At this April22nd meeting, were there any next steps discussed with respect to going forward with the proposal embodied in this document? A Yes, they were, I think Moelis was going to send us detailed cash flows that we could look at. Q. And I take it that Lehman was going to think on the proposal that was made, I take it, is that accurate? A Yes. Q. And what was said, if anything, by

Well, actually, it was to Apollo, but I think we may have had something in here about an auction, so if we ended up doing an auction, I don't know. Q. Then we will go to the document. Go with me to page 5 of Exhibit 9, please. A. Okay. Q. This again speaks to equity offering, an equity offering backstop; is that correct? A. Yes. Q. And this still has Apollo providing a backstop and Apollo getting a break-up

1 2 3 Yes. 4 Q. --correct? 5 Now after this document was 6 prepared, did you have discussion with Apollo 7 with respect to the structure of this 8 transaction as reflected in this Exhibit 9 number9? 10 My question is the structure. 11 A Of the backstop you're saying? 12 Q. Correct. 13 A I don't know if we had discussions 14 with them or once we showed this to Mark 15 Beilinson he showed it to them and they told 16 him that they didn't want to do that. 17 Q. Did you have direct input from 18 Apollo with respect to this document? 19 MR. O'BRIEN: Objection. 20 A Not this draft but, you know, the 21 document at certain points, we did, yeah. Q. This document under the "Conditions 22 23 Precedent" section there? 24 A Yes. 25 Q. Provides from your counsel that,

fee-A

Lascher AIC being the purchaser? Q. A Well, there's a-MR. O'BRIEN: He did talk about the auction. A Well, there's a break-up fee or a backup, backstop here, if they're not the new owner. Q. But it says here, "Condition precedent to Lehman's obligation under the PSA was agreement reached with AIC." A Right. Q. It didn't say AIC or an alternative to AIC, does it, anywhere? A It could have been an agreement as to the backstop. Q. Who was going to pay the backstop fee, Lehman or the company? A I mean it was Lehman who would have been selling the equity so I assume Lehman. Q. Lehman would have paid the backstop fee? MR. O'BRIEN: That's what he assumes. A That's what I assume, I mean -93

Lascher that the transaction will become binding on Lehman when Lehman, AIC and the company execute a plan support agreement that incorporates the transaction set forth herein, correct? A Yes. Q. So approximately 45 days from the filing of the bankruptcy case it was Lehman's proposal that contemplated a single document with Apollo, Lehman and the company signing, correct? A That's what it says here. Q. Right. The third bullet point under "Conditions Precedent" on page 5? Do you see that? A Yes. Q. "Agreement reached with AIC in form and substance satisfactory to Lehman." A Yes. Q. Is there anywhere in this document I can see that-- find where an alternative to AIC is discussed or contemplated by Lehman; do you know? A An alternative to what?

Lascher Well, when this proposal was-- was Q. this proposal authorized by you to be sent out by your counsel? A I don't know that it was ever sent out. Q. Was it sent, it was clearly sent to the debtor because you said the debtor and you discussed it, correct? A Yeah. Q. So was it your instruction that, was it your instruction that this, or intention, I'm sorry, at the time that Lehman would be paying the backstop fee? A Yeah, we were selling the equity. I mean that would make sense. Q. Before we leave Exhibit number 9, I want you to look at footnote number 2 again, and provides here that "values are based on Moelis presentation and have been included for illustrative purposes only"? A Yes. Q. So you're still using the Moelis numbers from the presentation we talked about earlier?

Lascher A. Yes. MR. PARKINS: Exhibit 10. (Exhibit Lascher-10, Document entitled, "Illustrative Terms of Proposed Restructuring, June 2, 1010," Bates Nos. LEH-ALI 000023 through LEH-ALI 000031, marked for identification, this date.) Q. I've handed you what's been marked as Exhibit number 10. It has, it's a Lehman production Bates stamp numbers 23 through 31. You have that in front of you, sir? A. Yes. Q. It's also marked a "Dechert Draft 6/1110 Preliminary and Confidential Subject to FRE 408." A. Right. Q. Now, let's start with footnote number 2 in this document. Footnote number 2 now has an added sentence that "Lehman is completing its own quantitative analysis of the value of the company and will supplemental this term sheet once that analysis has been completed."

Lascher Q. Like the prior exhibit, this document contemplates an equity offering, an equity backstop by Apollo and a break-up fee, correct? A. Yes. Q. And this draft also in "Conditions Precedent" provides that Lehman, Apollo and the company will execute the PSA, correct? A. Yeah. Q. Go with me to page 8 of this document, please. A. Okay. Q. Specifically the pro forma capital structure. A. Uh-huh. Q. These numbers here appear to be the ones from the Moelis presentations; am I correct? A. Yes. Q. The governance provisions here, board of directors to initially consist of seven members, seven in brackets, I want to read it for the record correctly, which three to be nominated by Lehman and four to be

Lascher that? A. Yes. Q. Did, in fact, Lehman do such a quantitative analysis? A. We, I think it was part of what we hired Lazard to do. Q. Okay. And do you recall whether or not Lehman supplemented this term sheet at any point in time with respect to the consequences of that subsequent analysis? A. I don't really know what's meant by that but, you know, at some point a real purchase price would go in for Apollo buying the equity. We have to agree with the company on the numbers for the debt levels at all the other, all the other silos of debt. Q. So this is part of the iterative process with respect to the economic terms of this term sheet that led to the PSA; is that correct? A. Yes. Q. Look with me at pages 4 and 5 of this document, this exhibit? A. Okay.

A Yes. Q. The second paragraph on page 1 reflects an assumption of enterprise value for the reorganized company of975 million and a value of the floating rate collateral of 200 million, correct? A Correct. Q. Floating rate collateral was a Lehman collateral, correct? A Correct. Q. These numbers again were Moelis numbers, correct? A Correct. Q. Now, before this June 2nd draft document was prepared did you have discussions with Apollo regarding, again, the

Lascher A Yeah. I mean they were our counsel on the deal. Q. This document, likewise, ifyou look at the equity offering, equity offering backstop and conditions precedent seem to be identical as in the prior draft. MR. O'BRIEN: Is that a question? Q. Do you agree with that? MR. PARKINS: That's the question. A I'll tell you in a second. They look a little bit different, the equity offering section has dollar amounts instead of percentages. Q. But the structure is the same, correct? A It's pretty similar, yeah. Q. And, again, and this document prepared by your counsel, the conditions precedent the transaction contemplates being binding on Lehman, on Lehman, Apollo and the company, execute a plan support agreement, correct? A This is in 11 you're asking me about?

Lascher structure of the transaction embodied in the term sheets here? A I don't believe so. Q. Did you have discussions with Mr. Beilinson regarding the structure? A You mean between the first and the second? Q. Yes, and the date between the first and the second? A I don't remember. I don't remember. Q. Do you recall whether Mr. Beilinson in response to the term sheet dated June 1 said, I'm not going to agree to that structure? A I don't know which, if any, of these went out. Q. Okay. Were the exhibits we've looked at so far that reflect Dechert drafts, were they authorized to be prepared by you on behalfofLehman? MR. O'BRIEN: You mean did he authorize them? MR. PARKINS: Yes.

Q. Yes, at the bottom of page 5.

Lascher Q. On the first page, second paragraph, the same numbers for the enterprise value of 975 and the value of the floating rate collateral is at 200 still, correct? A Yes. Q. Go with me, however, to pages 5 and 6, under "New Equity, New Equity Capitalization Options." A Uh-huh. Q. Which continues on to page 6 as well as "Conditions Precedent." Do you want to take a moment to read them? A Wait. I'm sorry, just tell me again, which sections did you want me to look at? Q. "New Equity Capitalization Options" and "Conditions Precedent." A Okay. Okay. Q. Under the provisions of the "New Equity Capitalization Options," okay, it provides that "Lehman, in its sole
103

Lascher will become binding on Lehman when Lehman, AIC and the Company execute a plan support agreement." A Right. Q. The third bullet point there under that says, "Agreement reached with AIC in form and substance satisfactory to Lehman." What agreement would that have been, sir? A Again, it's, you know, sort of same as the last one. It could have been an agreement on the backstop. Q. Was it an agreement to sell shares? A I don't know. Q. Who would know if you don't know for Lehman's side? MR. O'BRIEN: Are you finished answering his first question? THE WITNESS: What's the first question? MR. O'BRIEN: What agreement was contemplated by that provision? The agreement with AIC in form and substance satisfactory to Lehman.

"Capitalization Option A," and then on the next page is "Capitalization Option B." A Right. Q. A, involves an equity offering with Apollo being a backstop with a break-up fee again, correct? A Correct. Q. B, involves Lehman retaining all the shares no backstop by Apollo and no break-up fee, correct? A Right. Q. Did B still contemplate Lehman selling a portion of the equity it was going to get? A It doesn't look like it does. Q. Well, if I look at the "Conditions Precedent" next section. A Uh-huh. Q. It says, again, "The transaction

Lascher THE WITNESS: Yeah, I mean, yeah, I'm done answering. Q. Could that agreement be the agreement to sell shares to Apollo? A Under this construct it looks like there's one scenario where they would provide a backstop and we would auction the equity. In another scenario where we would just hold all the equity ourselves. Q. So is it, in the contemplation of Lehman that it would, it would be prepared to assume the risk of owning all this stock of the reorganized company? A I mean this is really just a negotiation. Q. Well, do you know if this went out to anybody? A I don't. Q. So I'm asking you at this point in time was it your contemplation that Lehman would agree to own all the stock of the company? A We didn't want to own the whole company.

It also provides later on in that box that there shall be a $70 million senior secured debt made available by Apollo as an equity contribution. Do you see that? A (Witness reading document.) Q. I'm sorry, I read that wrong. There will be $75 million of new debt less the amount of the AIC equity contribution defined as the new debt. A Right, I see that. Q.

Lascher we see that AIC shall make an additional equity contribution in an amount equal to blank million in respect of its guaranty of the company's PIP obligations with respect to the fixed rate pool; do you see that? A Yes. Q. That's defined as AIC's equity contribution? A Right. Q. Prior to this document being prepared by your law firm, Lehman's law firm, and it's dated 6/17/10, did you have discussions with Apollo regarding the change in the structure from this document to the prior term sheets prepared? A I believe this term sheet probably represents the term sheet, you know, the first time we really shared a draft of it with Apollo. Q. My question again, sir, and I appreciate your answer. Between the prior term sheets dated earlier than June 17 and June 17, did you have discussion with Apollo with respect to what was going to be in the 111

Lascher THE WITNESS: You know what, I remember. A. There were two proposals that were sent to Innkeepers and only one was sent to Apollo. Whether we had a conversation with Mark to highlight that, I don't remember. Q. The reason I ask, sir, because the first page of the term sheet says, "Term Sheet Alternative A"? A. Right. Q. There was a different alternative I take it considered? A. Yeah, and I think it was similar to what was in the previous exhibit which stated that Lehman would own all of the equity. Q. So look with me again on page 6. A. Okay. MR. O'BRIEN: Exhibit 13? MR. PARKINS: Yes. A. Okay. Q.

A I don't remember. Q. Did you tell him there was going to be two different proposals prepared by Lehman? A What do you mean? Q. Well, my question is: Did you tell Mr. Beilinson there were going to be tough different proposals prepared? A I don't remember. I believe only one proposal went to Apollo.

The "Conditions Precedent" which is the next box? A Yep. Q. Reflects that the PSA is a condition precedent would be binding on Lehman when Lehman, AIC and the company executed a PSA. Do you see that? A Yes, I do. Q. You see here in the third bullet point in that box "Conditions Precedent," the language we saw earlier, "Agreement reached with AIC in form and substance satisfactory to Lehman"? A Right. Q. Do you understand what that meant at this time? A It would have meant a sale of the, of half the equity to Apollo.

I would imagine they were working off a Dechert document and didn't change the header. Q. But you don't know? A. No. Q. Me neither. Okay. I see that on this document, Exhibit 14, the language with respect to Lehman conducting its own analysis in footnote 2 is gone, in fact, there is no footnote 2 any more, correct? A.

"In addition to providing the Floating Rate DIP Facility, Lehman will consent to the use of its cash collateral in terms acceptable to Lehman provided however the company's use of Lehman's cash collateral shall be limited to use for the benefit of floating rate collateral."

1 2 3 4 Lehman determined to the sole discretion 5 after completion of its tax due diligence 6 that the anticipated tax obligations of the 7 company on the effective date are 8 unacceptable to Lehman? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Now this bullet point has embodied 11 similar language in the PSA? 12 A. The last bullet you're talking? 13 Q. Yes. 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. And there's a 45-day deadline by which Lehman has to make that determination, 16 17 correct? 18 A. Correct. 19 Q. Has Lehman made that determination 20 yet? 21 A.

"AIC may consider an additional capital commitment of up to five million to fund property improvement plans in exchange for a complete release of any liability for payment or performance of any PIP related obligations, if any, of AIC"; do you see that? A Yes. Q. Now, did you have discussions regarding Apollo's desire to get a complete release on any guaranty to do PIP work on or about the date of this document? A I mean this definitely came up in the context of what they wrote here. But I have no ability to release them from a guaranty that's not for my benefit. Q. But it was something that Apollo asked for? A That's what it says here. 121 1 2 3 4 5

Lascher A I see that. Q. That's similar to the language in the prior term sheet that was created, correct? A Yes. Q. Reading on, on the "Use of Cash Collateral" provides, "Company's use of Lehman's cash collateral will terminate immediately upon the occurrence of a termination event, as defined below, including the failure of the company to meet the plan milestones as defined below." Do you see that? A Yes. Q. Then as we get into the "AIC Purchase of New Equity" provision of this document, I see that the price has changed from the prior term sheet. Take a moment and take a look. A Yes, I see that. Q. The price went down? A Yeah. Q. The price went down still for a 50 percent of the stock, though, correct?

Now it also provides in here for AIC making, paying Lehman an option premium of $10 million at closing. A Uh-huh. Q. Do you know what that option premium was for? A I mean -- the truth -- I didn't care about any of this. I wanted money. I wanted the most money that I could get from them in selling the equity. Whatever all this means is irrelevant to me. Q. And my question is, do you know what is meant by the option premium on what, is what I'm asking, do you know what that meant? A To buy the equity. Q. To buy the rest of the equity, the other 50 percent?

Going to the next page, page 6 of this document, likewise, it has in the top box that the equity ownership would be 48.5 to Lehman, 48.5 to AIC or to one of more of its designees? A Right. Q. That's a new add from the prior draft, correct? A Right. Q. And then "Conditions Precedent" still provide that there will be transactions binding on Lehman when Lehman, again, Apollo and the company execute a plan support agreement, correct? A Yes, I see that. Q. So at least whichever date you pick, June 17 or June 22nd, okay, as a proposal from Apollo everybody sign-everyone, AIC, Lehman and the company are still signing a single PSA for this to be binding on Lehman, correct? A That's what it says in the term sheet.

Is that the purchase of equity -A Yes. Q. --It's referring to here? Yes? A Yeah, I would imagine. Q. Was there any other agreement you were contemplating with Apollo Investment Corporation at this time other than the purchase of equity? A I can't remember if at this point we were still talking about Apollo providing a backstop for a sale of the equity. Q. Well, you don't see any backstop in this document, do you? Take a look if you need to. A That's right, but I also don't see anything about a sale. Q. Well, were you intending to sell

We were still planning on selling half of it whether we were settled on at that point selling it to Apollo or not? Q. Weren't you about to sign a term sheet with Apollo on or about this date to sell the stock to Apollo, contemplate a sale of stock to Apollo? A I'm just saying in terms of the time continuum I can't remember where we were in our thinking on June 23rd -- or 29th or 23rd, whatever. Q. You were negotiating at this time, though, a term sheet with Apollo to sell this 50 percent of the stock to Apollo, correct? MR. O'BRIEN: Do you mean at or around June 29th? MR. PARKINS: Yes. A I'm just telling you, I can't remember in terms of the time continuum when we started doing that, but yes, at some point we settled on we were going to sell it to Apollo.

Q. -- the seller of stock is going to be Lehman and the acquirer is going to be Apollo, correct? MR. O'BRIEN: Under this term sheet. MR. PARKINS: Under the term sheet, correct, that's what the term sheet provides. A It says after confirmation Lehman will agree to sell AIC the right to receive half the equity in the company. Q. Right.

Is that the number you understand to be the company's position on what Apollo's exposure is on a guaranty? MR. EHRLICH: Objection to form. Please note my objection.

And my question is, did Innkeepers discuss this number in the context of developing the PSA as dealing with the Apollo guaranty problem with this magnitude of dollars? MR. EHRLICH: Objection. A I don't remember the number. We looked at this schedule, we looked at a schedule similar to this in agreeing to what scope of work we would commit to having the company do as long as there were funds available post emergence from bankruptcy, assuming that we own the company together.

Lascher Q. Good afternoon. My name is Lawrence Gottesman of Bryan Cave. We represent LNR Partners, LLC, which is the special servicer group to securitization trust. Just for the record one of those is CSFB 2007-Cl which services two loans, one of which relates to the Residence Inn Mission Valley in San Diego and the other of which relates to the Residence Inn Garden Grove. The other trust is called ML-CFC 2006-4 and that trust has three Innkeepers' loans, one of which is the Doubletree Guest Suites in Washington, D.C., another of which is a Residence Inn Tyson's Corner, Vienna, Virginia, and the third is the Homewood Suites in San Antonio. Are you familiar with any of those loans as part of the planned negotiation and plan support process that you described in your prior testimony? A Yes. Q. Can you tell me what your familiarity is?

Can you tell me when the discussions with respect to the other secured debt started in the process that you described earlier today? A I mean they would have started at our first meeting back in April, I think it was the April22nd meeting. They were part of the, you know, the organizational chart that's attached to the Moelis presentation and there was always an amount of debt that was allocated to assets other than the fixed rate and floating rate pools. Q. What I would like to know is in this process who allocated that debt? I mean there was a certain amount outstanding; is that correct? A Yes. Q. And what's that amount approximately, if you know? A I don't remember offhand.

A We started with the Moelis presentation. Q. Okay. And was there a bid and ask in terms of what Innkeepers wanted as opposed to what Lehman wanted with respect to that, or was there immediate agreement as to how that allocation would proceed or be made? A I mean there wasn't immediate agreement, because we wanted to do our own investigation into, you know, what we thought the value of the assets were. Q. Well, let me state it different. Was there a deal point for Lehman that there be a particular number attached to that bucket? A To the bucket other than fixed and floating rate pool assets, yes. Q. And did Lehman ever make a proposal 143

Lascher proceed with the deal if it were a different number? MR. O'BRIEN: On this subject? MR. GOTTESMAN: With respect to the treatment of the other -MR. O'BRIEN: Yes. MR. GOTTESMAN: --what is called the other secured debt in the term sheet. MR. O'BRIEN: Exactly. A I don't think we were ever that far apart on what the number should be, but the interim discussions I really don't remember specifically. Q. Did Lehman have an internal analysis as to what number it would accept as part of this process in order to go forward with the transaction contemplated by the plan term sheet and the Plan Support Agreement? A I mean it was part of what we -- it was part of what Lazard was engaged to help us with. Q. Let me state it differently. The basic economic deal from

And was it a condition of that that the other debt of the company somehow be addressed? A Yes. Q. Okay. Who, who stated at the outset as to what that treatment had to be? A Well, if you go back to the Moelis presentation, you can see what's proposed in terms of-- and then we had discussion about it. I mean I don't -- we had discussions about the debt and where we thought the outstanding debt should be when the company emerged from bankruptcy. Q. Let me state it differently. If the debt were reinstated, was Lehman willing to proceed with the Plan Support Agreement? A Reinstated in full you're saying? Q. Correct. A I mean the Plan Support Agreement says $150 million of debt, that those are the

Lascher as to what that number should be? A I mean we ended up with $150 million. I don't remember -- I don't remember-Q. I have the term sheet. I'm trying to understand where you started as opposed to where you ended up. A I don't remember. We started with the Moelis number and we ended up with what's in the term sheet. Q. Let me see ifl can try and get to this a different way. Was there negotiation, sort of the normal back and forth with respect to the number between Lehman and Innkeepers? A It wasn't really a negotiation. I mean we had a conversation about whether -we had conversations about whether we agreed with their number or not. It wasn't -- I mean, I don't know if I would characterize it as negotiations. There were discussions about it. Q. Well, was there ever a point where Lehman indicated that it was unwilling to

148 Lascher A. I wouldn't invest in a company without being comfortable with the capital structure of the company. Q. And Lehman viewed the conversion of its existing debt to equity as an investment? A. I mean as part of our workout, we would be an owner of this company. Q. Did you have any discussions with any of the other, with any of the debtor holders of the unsecured debt as part of these discussions? A. Like who? Q. Any of the securitization of or the services with respect to that. A. With which, for which loans? Q. With respect to what's called the other secured debt in the term sheet. A. Well, you're the servicer for-your client is a servicer for all of those loans except for one; is that right? I'm just trying to figure out who you're asking me ifi talked to. Q. What I'm trying to find out, during the process that you described, was Lehman a 149

Lascher 1 terms under which we're willing to proceed. 2 Q. No, I understand. I asked the 3 question in terms of what Lehman's goal was 4 in the negotiations, which went on for some 5 period of time, right? 6 A. Right. 7 Q. Was Lehman willing to live with an 8 outcome in which that debt was reinstated? 9 A. And when you say reinstated, you 10 ~m~~? 11 Q. Correct. Unimpaired. 12 A. No, that's why we have $150 million 13 as where we want to see the debt on the other 14 15 asset. Q. So Lehman's position as part of the 16 negotiation was that in order for it to 17 convert its debt to equity it needed to reach 18 agreement or at least dictate the terms of 19 how other creditors would be treated in the 20 context of an overall reorganization; is that 21 correct? 22 MR. O'BRIEN: Object to the form. 23 A. No -- I mean we had a discussion 24 with our borrower and this is where we agreed 25 147

Lascher would be an appropriate debt level on those assets. Q. Does Lehman have claims against the borrowers with respect to the other secured debt? A. No. Q. So in the context of Lehman deciding its own treatment or negotiating its own treatment, more accurately, there were discussions as a condition to that as to how other creditors would be treated; is that correct? A. I mean that's what's laid out in the PSA, right? Q. I understand. I'm asking about the discussions as opposed to what's in the document itself. A. I mean, yeah, we would never -- it would have never gotten into the document if we didn't have a discussion about it. Q. Was Lehman willing to simply do a deal where it converted its debt to equity and then left the company off to figure out how to deal with its other issues?

Lascher party to any discussions with anyone other than Innkeepers and Apollo as to the transactions that are ultimately memorialized in the Plan Support Agreement and in the term sheet annexed to that? A. We had conversations with Marriott and we had conversations with -- we had a conversation or two with Trimont. Q. Anyone else? A. I mean who else? I don't know who else there is. Q. Did you have a conversation with any of the special servicers for the other secured debt? A. I don't remember having conversations. Q. Okay. MR. GOTTESMAN: I have no further questions. MR. CRISP: Can we take a two-minute break so I can move down there a little closer? MR. O'BRIEN: Sure. (A brief recess was taken.)

Lascher EXAMINATION BY MR. CRISP: Q. Mr. Lascher, my name is Mike Crisp. I'm with the firm of Kilpatrick Stockton and we represent Trimont Real Estate Advisors, which is a special servicer on the floating rate mezz loan and also on the Anaheim mezz loan. Are you familiar with those two loans generally? A Yes. Q. And I remind you, you are still under oath even though the interrogator has changed. A Okay. Q. When did you first get involved with the workout of the Innkeepers debt, Lehman's Innkeepers debt? A The workout that's going on right =wmQ. Right. A I mean we started having detailed conversations about it in April of this year. Q. When was the default on the Lehman loan by Innkeepers?

Lascher Q. Okay. And when you went to that meeting, was it your view that -- let me back up one step. The Lehman loan is an asset that Lehman, is it Lehman-ALI that holds that asset or is it some other Lehman entity? A I think Lehman-ALI is the named lender on it. There's -- I think Lehman commercial paper has the economic interest in the loan but Lehman-ALI is the lender of record. Q. Okay. And when you went to the prior meeting, was it your view that the Lehman loan was fully secured? A When I went to the prior meeting did I think that that senior -- the senior debt was fully secured? Q. Right. A No. Q. No, you did not think that? A No, I did not think that. Q. Okay. Has any Lehman entity, either ALI or Lehman commercial paper, ever taken any impairment or reserve against loan

A I think they officially went into default, I can't remember the exact date, but it was -- there was a default if a certain number of days had passed after they lost a flas Q. Was it a default that led to your involvement? A No, I had been involved for quite some time. Q. Did Innkeepers at any point stop paying on the Lehman debt? A I don't think so. Q. When did you learn from Innkeepers that the company was going to be unable to continue the services debt? A Its debts generally you're saying? Q. Uh-huh. A In April. Q. That's what we referred to earlier as the prior meeting? A Yes. Q. Which was the meeting a week or 10 days prior to the April22nd meeting? A Yes.

Lascher losses for the loan to Innkeepers? A. I mean we don't, because we're bankrupt we don't hold reserves against positions. The last time we did a valuation was over 6 months ago and I can't remember offhand what the -- what we thought the current value of the assets were. Q. But the answer is as of today, either because of bankruptcy or any other reason, there has been no impairment or loan loss reserve against that asset? A There is no reserve against the asset. Q. Has there been any impairment of the asset in any other sense from an internal accounting standpoint to any Lehman entity, to your knowledge. A I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Q. Well, you've testified about there not being a loan loss on the asset. A You mean that we didn't -- I didn't think they were fully secured. Q. And my question is internally by

Lascher any other mechanism, have you indicated there is an impairment of that asset? A I don't know. Q. Let's talk for a minute about the-- the original face amount of the Lehman loan was $250 million? A 238 million. Q. That that was the original? A Oh, no. 250, you're right, and there were some paydowns with asset sales. Q. Is 238 roughly the current outstanding balance on the loan? A 220.2. Q. And that loan is secured by the 20 hotels that are in that pool? A Yes. Q. Now, I don't want to ask you what the Lazard analysis was, but was a valuation of those 20 hotels part of what Lazard did for Lehman? A Yes. Q. And then you understand there's a borrower on a junior mezzanine loan where the collateral is the equity interest in the 20 155

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Lascher suites in Anaheim, California. Are you familiar with that loan? A Yes. Q. And then there's also a $21.3 million junior mezzanine loan on the same property. Are you familiar with that? A Yes. Q. And what is the treatment, we'll call that the Anaheim mezzanine loan, if that's okay with you? A Okay. Q. What, under the PSA in the term sheet, is the treatment of the Anaheim mezz loan? A There's $150 million of debt available for seven assets and so however that plays out. I think there is something that's contradictory in the term sheet that says it would be wiped out but from our perspective whatever, whatever happens with that -- the $150 million is available for the seven assets. Q. So sitting here today, your view is that the Anaheim mezzanine loan would be not 157

Lascher entities that own the 20 properties that secured the Lehman loan? A Yes. Q. And do you have an understanding about the treatment --let's just call that the floating rate mezz, if that's okay with you? A That's fine. Q. Do you have an understanding about what the treatment is of the floating rate mezz under the PSA in the term sheet? A Yeah, they would get wiped out. Q. And is Lehman supportive of that treatment? A Yes. Q. Why? A Because we don't think there is any value in the position. Q. Based on what? A Based on our -- the work that we did or that Lazard did to understand the value of the assets. Q. Let's talk about the Anaheim one. There's a $13.7 million loan on the Hilton

18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25

Lascher treated the way the mezzanine loans are indicated to be in the PSA in the term sheet but it would be moved over into the $150 million available to fund the secured loans on not just the six hotels for which LNR is the servicer but also for the Anaheim property? A That could be. Q. Is that your understanding today? A I mean that's my view. I don't-I'm not sure that that's entirely, that's accurately reflected in the PSA Q. There's a disconnect between the PSA and what you currently understand today; is that correct? A Yes. Q. Has Lehman undertaken any efforts to test the market's appetite for equity in the post reorganization company? A No. Q. Is it Lehman's intention post reorganization to at some point in the future market its 50 percent of the-- of the distribution equity that it's retaining?

Lascher A. Not in the near term. Q. Well, there's a provision in the term sheet, isn't there, that indicates that Lehman and AIC within 3 years would undertake to retain the services of a banker to market and sell the stock in Innkeepers, sell the company? A. There's something to that effect in there, yes. Q. Other than the reorganization transaction that's reflected in the PSA in the term sheet with Innkeepers, and the various iterations going back of the term sheets that went back and forth, did Lehman ever consider any other form of restructuring other than the general scope, general character of the transaction that's reflected in those documents? A. I mean we -- another restructuring with -- with the company or the borrower you're saying? Q. Yes, something other than that a debt for equity swap and the general structure that we see pretty much from mid

CRISP: That's all I've got. Thank you, Mr. Lascher. MR. O'BRIEN: Anyone? MR. GOULD: I have just a couple of questions. EXAMINATION BY MR. GOULD: Q. Mr. Lascher, I'm Jeff Gould with Kirkland & Ellis on behalf of the debtors. I just wanted to circle back to a couple points you were asked about earlier. A. Okay. Q. This morning you were asked if you had knowledge of whether Innkeepers was considering any other plan other than that anticipated by the PSA, and if I got my notes right, your answer was that you never thought they would do otherwise? A. Right. Q. Now, I just want to go back and ask

I mean we would have taken the assets back but we weren't -- we didn't want to restructure the loan. Q. Was there ever any discussion between you and Innkeepers about simply modifying the terms of the Lehman loan? A. Isn't that the same -Q. In other words, push out the maturity, reduce the interest rate, was there any discussion between Lehman and Innkeepers about that in April of 2010? A. Previously, there were other discussions with Innkeepers about that. Q. Prior to April2010? A. Yeah. Q. And tell me generally about those discussions. A. We talked about, you know, we were asked if we would restructure the debt

Lascher you about that particular question, Your knowledge of whether the debtor, whether Innkeepers was considering any other plans. So do you have any knowledge one way or another? A. No. MR. O'BRIEN: Why don't you listen to that? Were you-- Mr. Gould, did you complete your question? I just wanted to make sure. MR. GOULD: I did, but for the sake of the record, let's clarify. Q. Do you have knowledge one way or the other whether Innkeepers was considering any other plan other than that anticipated by thePSA? A. No. Q. On another point I thought you said a bit earlier this afternoon that Apollo -that AIC would be getting equity pursuant to the PSA and I just want to clarify that point as well. The PSA does not provide for AIC to
