H. The Principals desire that HMC Inc. Delaware complete an initial public offering of its shares (the "IPO"). In preparation for the IPO, the Principals have agreed to the transactions provided for in this Agreement. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Each of the Principals agrees to contribute all of the equity interests now or hereafter beneficially owned by him or her in HMC California, HMC China and each of the Foreign Entities, other than HMC UK International, to HMC LLC, and HMC LLC agrees to accept each such contribution. Each such contribution shall be made as soon as possible hereafter as permitted by applicable local law. 2. Each of the Principals agrees to contribute all of his or her equity interests in HMC UK International to Hospitality Marketing Concepts (Holdings) Limited ("Holdings"), a business entity organized in the United Kingdom. Such contribution shall be made as soon as possible but in no event later than July 1, 1998. As a result of such contribution, HMC UK International will be wholly owned by Holdings. Each of the Principals further agrees to cause all appropriate action to be taken by HMC UK International and Holdings to cause HMC UK International to transfer all of its equity interests in HMC Spain and HMC Italy to Holdings. Each of the Principals further agrees to take all necessary action, following the distribution of the interests in HMC Spain and HMC Italy from HMC UK International to Holdings, to further cause HMC UK International to be liquidated and dissolved.

Each of the Principals agrees to cause all of his or her equity interests in HMC Poland to be transferred to HMC LLC made as soon as possible as permitted by applicable local law; provided, however, that such transfer may be structured other than as a transfer of equity interests, such as, for example, by recapitalization or asset transfer, if necessary or convenient to accommodate tax or accounting considerations. 4. Each of the Principals agrees to take all actions necessary or appropriate to transfer to HMC LLC record title of all capital stock of HMC California and all equity interests in the Foreign Entities. 5. Each of the Principals agrees to take all actions necessary or appropriate to wind up and dissolve each of the Dormant Entities. 6.
