BACKGROUND
4. The Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter ll of the
United States Code on or about July 19, 2010.
5. Best Western International, Inc. ("Best Western") is a non-profit
corporation organized under the laws of the State of Arizona with its headquarters located
in Phoenix, Arizona. Best Western operates as a membership organization consisting of
individually owned and operated hotels (i.e., its members).
6. Best Western provides its members with a worldwide reservation system and

of hotel equipment, furnishings and supplies (the "Best Western Services"). Each Best
Western member is authorized to use the Best Western name, logos, trademarks, service
marks and collective membership marks in connection with its hotel pursuant to a limited,
non-exclusive license (the "Best Western License"), which is set forth in the Membership
Agreement.
7. Grand Prix Floating Lessee, LLC, one of the Debtors herein (hereafter,
"Debtor"), owned and operated the hotel known as the Best Western West Palm Beach

Floating Lessee, LLC, during the course of this bankruptcy proceeding, and Grand Prix
Floating Lessee, LLC, continued to promote its hotel to the general public as a Best Western
affiliated hotel.
9. On January 26, 2011, the Court, pursuant to motion of the Debtors, authorized
the Debtors to reject the Best Western Membership Agreement effective as of February 13,
2011. Debtor's thereby terminated their Best Western membership as of February 13,2011.
10. There remains due and owing to Best Western from Debtors for membership
services provided to the Estates the sum of$85,352.21. Copies of Best Western's account
statements with respect to such services are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
GROUNDS FOR RELIEF
11. Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code provides that:
After notice and a hearing, there shall be allowed administrative expenses,
other than claims allowed under 502(f) of this title, including-
(1)(A) the actual, necessary costs and expenses of preserving the
estate ....
(3) the actual, necessary expenses, other than compensation and
reimbursement specified in paragraph ( 4) of this subsection, incurred by
(D) a creditor, an indenture trustee, an equity security holder,
or a committee representing creditors or equity security
holders other than a committee appointed under Section 1102
of this title, in making a substantial contribution in a case
under Chapter 9 or 11 of this title;
12. Debtors have acknowledged that they have utilized the Best Western name

and marks and that Debtors made use of the Best Western reservations system and services
in its operations during this proceeding (Filing No. 578); that the Best Western membership
was necessary for Debtors to maintain fmancing agreements and preserve the value of
Debtors' property (Filing No. 753); and that the benefit to the Debtors' bankruptcy estates
from the Best Western membership was "incalculably large, to the extent that the entire
restructuring effectively depends on not terminating the Membership Agreement. .. "
13. Pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, Best Western's claim for
administrative expense for services provided to Debtors during the course of this bankruptcy
case is entitled to administrative expense priority.
WHEREFORE, Best Western requests that this Court enter an order in substantially
the form of Exhibit B allowing Best Western's administrative expense claim in the amount
of $85,352.21, and granting such other and further relief as the Court deems appropriate.
Dated this 6 day of May, 2011.
