CC, CCM and CCP have entered into an Agreement with the Issuer dated February 12, 2009 (a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B), which relates to (a) the Board of Directors of the Issuer appointing Mr. Shackelton to serve as a Director, and (b), CC, CCM and CCP agreeing to not acquire 35% or more of the Stock.

The Filers reserve the right to formulate other plans and/or make other proposals, and take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer, including any or all of the actions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, or acquire additional Stock or dispose of all Stock beneficially owned by them, in public market or privately negotiated transactions (subject to the Agreement referred to above and any applicable restriction arising from Mr. Shackelton becoming a Director).

DATED AS OF FEBRUARY 12, 2009

AGREEMENT

This Agreement, dated February 12, 2009 (this "Agreement"), is entered into by and among the persons listed on Schedule A (collectively, the "Coliseum Group", and each individually, a "member" of the Coliseum Group) and Interstate Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (the "Company").

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the members of the Coliseum Group own of record and/or beneficially an aggregate of 3,740,743 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock") and the Company has a vacancy on its Board of Directors that the parties wish to fill with a designee of the Coliseum Group; and

WHEREAS, each of the Company and the Coliseum Group has determined that it is in its best interests to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and reliance upon the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Board Appointment; Board Nomination.

(a) Except as otherwise required by any applicable laws, rules or regulations (including any securities exchange regulations), the Company agrees that (i) as soon as practicable after the date hereof but no later than February 15, 2009 the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), at a duly convened meeting, will take all necessary action to appoint Christopher Shackelton (the "Coliseum Nominee") to serve as a director of the Company in the class of directors whose term expires at the 2009 annual meeting of the Company's stockholders (the "2009 Annual Meeting") and (ii) the Board will take all necessary action to nominate and recommend to its stockholders for election, at the 2009 Annual Meeting, the Coliseum Nominee to the class of directors whose term expires at the 2012 annual meeting of the Company's stockholders and, in furtherance thereof, the Company shall give no less scope and degree of support to and use no less efforts to encourage its stockholders to vote in favor of the Coliseum Nominee at the 2009 Annual Meeting than the Company gives with respect to any other person that is nominated and recommended by the Board for election to the Board at the 2009 Annual Meeting of the Company's stockholders.

(b) At such time as the Coliseum Nominee shall become a director of the Company, the Coliseum Nominee shall irrevocably agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Company's policies applicable to directors from time to time, including, without limitation, the Company's Code of Conduct and Ethics, Business Code of Conduct, Corporate Governance Guidelines, International Compliance Manual and insider trading policies. For the avoidance of doubt, as a director, the Coliseum Nominee shall be subject to and entitled to the same standards and considerations as the other directors on the Board for purposes of determining his rights and obligations as a director, including with respect to indemnification, insurance and director compensation.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time after the date hereof (i) the Coliseum Group shall cease collectively to beneficially own at least seven percent (7%) or, in the event the Company issues additional Common Stock that dilutes the beneficial ownership of the Coliseum Group, five percent (5%) of the then-outstanding Common Stock, or (ii) any member of the Coliseum Group or any affiliate thereof (such affiliates, collectively and individually, the "Coliseum Affiliates") shall have materially breached or otherwise materially violated any provision of this Agreement or any other material agreement between such person and the Company (including any confidentiality agreement) and the Board shall by a vote (or written consent) have determined such breach or violation to have occurred, (x) the Coliseum Group shall cause the Coliseum Nominee to promptly tender his resignation from the Board and (y) the Company shall be relieved of all obligations under this
Section 1 other than with respect to any indemnification or insurance obligations for service prior to such resignation. In furtherance of this
Section 1(c), the Coliseum Nominee, upon his appointment to the Board, shall execute an irrevocable resignation as director in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(d) The Company represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(i) The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement;

(ii) This Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms;

(iii) No governmental, regulatory or other approval, authorization, clearance, consent, filing, license, notification or registration with, to or from any person, including any governmental or regulatory authority, is required in order to permit the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement, other than with respect to any necessary filings to be made by the Company pursuant to any federal securities laws and any necessary meetings and approvals of the stockholders of the Company and the Board with respect to the transactions described herein.

2. Representation and Warranties. Each member of the Coliseum Group hereby jointly and severally represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as follows:

(a) Each member has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement;

(b) This Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each member of the Coliseum Group and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against such member in accordance with its terms;

(c) No governmental, regulatory or other approval, authorization, clearance, consent, filing, license, notification or registration with, to or from any person, including any governmental or regulatory authority, is required in order to permit any member of the Coliseum Group to perform its obligations under this Agreement, other than with respect to any necessary filing to be made by any member of the Coliseum Group pursuant to Section 13 or 16 of the Exchange Act.

(d) Schedule B sets forth a true, correct and complete list of (i) all Securities (as defined in Section 16) beneficially owned by any member of the Coliseum Group or any Coliseum Affiliate, (ii) all derivative contracts, derivative securities or derivative transactions to which any member of the Coliseum Group or any Coliseum Affiliate is a party and which gives such member or such Coliseum Affiliate the economic or voting equivalent of ownership of Securities, (iii) any derivative contracts, derivative securities or derivative transactions to which any member of the Coliseum Group or any Coliseum Affiliate is a party and which reduces such member's or such Coliseum Affiliate's economic or voting interest in any Securities, (iv) any Securities that any member of the Coliseum Group or any Coliseum Affiliate owns or has title to that are subject to a repurchase or similar borrowing agreement or arrangement and (v) any proxy (including any revocable proxy), contract, arrangement or understanding (whether or not binding) pursuant to which any member of the Coliseum Group or any Coliseum Affiliate has or may have a right to vote or acquire any Securities or pursuant to which such member or Coliseum Affiliate has or may have granted a right to vote or acquire any Securities. In the event that any of the information in Schedule B (as Schedule B may be revised hereunder, from time to time, after the date hereof) is or becomes incomplete or incorrect at any time on or after the date hereof, the Coliseum Group shall, to the extent not filed when due with the SEC pursuant to federal securities laws, promptly (and in any event within 3 business days thereof) provide a revised Schedule B to the Company, together with a certificate executed by each member of the Coliseum Group certifying that such revised Schedule B sets forth a true, correct and complete list of the items described in clauses (i) through (v) above as of the date such revised Schedule B is delivered to the Company (it being understood and agreed that no such revisions to Schedule B shall affect any remedies of the Company hereunder for any breaches or other violations of this Agreement).

(e) Each member of the Coliseum Group and each Coliseum Affiliate has filed and shall use all reasonable commercial efforts to timely file with the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, certifications and other documents (including exhibits and all other information incorporated by reference therein) required to be filed by such person with respect to Securities (the "Coliseum Reports"). The Coliseum Reports were prepared and will be prepared (when filed after the execution of this Agreement) in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and the Exchange Act, and did not at the time they were filed and will not, when filed after the execution of this Agreement, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Section 16), no member of the Coliseum Group shall, and the Coliseum Group shall cause each Coliseum Affiliate not to, directly or indirectly:

(h) other than as a Board member with respect to actions approved in advance by the Board, propose or agree to do or propose any of the foregoing, or advise, assist, encourage or facilitate any third party in taking any action with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, that the restriction in this clause
(h) shall not restrict any member of the Coliseum Group from (i) voting any Securities that it beneficially owns and is entitled to vote in any transaction to be voted upon by the Company's stockholders or (ii) as a Board member, engaging in private discussions with the Board regarding a potential transaction, in each case, on a strictly confidential basis in circumstances that would not reasonably be expected to require public disclosure by the Company or any member of the Coliseum Group; or
