From the supplier: An analysis of 50 management contracts negotiated between 1997 and 1998 involving 60 US hotels showed that the duration of those contracts was shorter than contracts negotiated in the 1970s and 1980s. The mean term was 11.7 years, with one set of contracts ranging from four to six years, and another set at 20-24 years. Concerning penalties for early contract termination, the operator was entitled to penalty payments in two-thirds of the contracts in case of sale, while a penalty occurred in just one-third of the contracts in case of foreclosure.
