Explanation of Responses:

1. The shares were acquired by the Reporting Person in connection with an exchange offer by the Issuer for common units of Ashford Hospitality Advisors LLC ("Ashford LLC") previously held by the Reporting Person. For every fifty-five (55) common units of Ashford LLC exchanged by the Reporting Person, the Reporting Person received one (1) share of common stock of the Issuer.

2. Includes one hundred eight (108) shares of the Issuer's common stock distributed by Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc. ("Ashford Trust") in connection with the spin-off of the Issuer from Ashford Trust.

3. Represents common units ("Common Units") in Ashford LLC, the Issuer's operating subsidiary, owned by the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person held such Common Units prior to the spin-off of the Issuer from Ashford Trust, but such Common Units were not convertible except upon consummation of such spin-off. Common Units, on or after November 12, 2015, are redeemable for cash or, at the option of the Issuer, convertible into shares of the Issuer's common stock on a 1-for-1 basis. The Common Units have no expiration date.
