The Initial Hotels will be leased to Boykin Management Company Limited Liability Company (the "Initial Lessee"), which is owned by Robert W. Boykin and John E. Boykin, pursuant to leases (the "Percentage Leases") designed to allow the Company to achieve substantial participation in the future revenue growth generated by the Initial Hotels. The Company intends to lease its hotel properties to the Initial Lessee and other selected operating companies.

ii 5 PROSPECTUS SUMMARY The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information and financial information and statements, and the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Risk Factors." Unless otherwise indicated, the information contained in this Prospectus assumes (i) an initial offering price of $20.00 per Common Share, (ii) that the Underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised; (iii) that the units of limited partnership interest ("Units") in Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., an Ohio limited partnership which will own the Company's initial hotel properties (the "Partnership"), that are outstanding on the date the Offering is consummated are exchanged for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis; (iv) that an intercompany convertible note payable to the Company which is convertible into equity interests in the Partnership is so converted; and (v) that options granted to directors and officers of the Company for the purchase of Common Shares are not exercised. See "Glossary" for the definitions of certain terms used in this Prospectus. THE COMPANY The Company was formed to continue and expand the hotel ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and repositioning activities of the Boykin Group and will operate as a self-administered equity real estate investment trust (a "REIT"). Upon completion of the Offering and Formation Transactions described herein, the Company will own nine hotels with a total of 2,408 guest rooms. The Initial Hotels are operated under franchise license agreements with premier nationally-recognized hotel chains, including Marriott(R), Radisson(R), Holiday Inn(R), Quality Suites(R), and Hampton Inns(R). Serving both business and leisure travelers, the Initial Hotels are geographically diversified and are located in Berkeley, California; Buffalo, New York; Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Ft. Myers and Melbourne, Florida. The Initial Hotels include eight full-service hotels and one limited-service hotel, all of which compete in the upscale to moderate price segment of the hospitality market. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, the Initial Hotels had an average occupancy rate of 76.2%, an average daily room rate ("ADR") of $87.62 and an average room revenue per available room night ("REVPAR") of $66.74. The Boykin Group developed and has owned and managed seven of the Initial Hotels since their opening. The Company will capitalize on the substantial hotel operating, development, acquisition and transactional experience of its management and the Boykin Group. The Boykin Group was one of the first franchisees of Marriott Hotels(R) and an early franchisee of Howard Johnson's Hotels(R). Since its founding in 1959, the Boykin Group has developed 13 full-service hotels containing a total of 3,085 rooms and has owned or managed 36 properties containing a total of 6,943 rooms. Robert W. Boykin, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, has over 27 years of experience in the hotel industry, all with the Boykin Group. Raymond P. Heitland, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, has 26 years of industry experience and tenure with the Boykin Group. Mark L. Bishop, the Company's Senior Vice President -- Acquisitions and Development, has 18 years of industry experience. During the past 10 years, the Company's officers have directly overseen the acquisition, disposition, recapitalization, development and repositioning of approximately $750 million of hotel assets throughout the United States. Upon completion of the Offering, Company management and other Boykin Group Affiliates will own approximately 12.7% of the outstanding equity of the Company. Each Boykin Group Affiliate will conduct all future hotel acquisition, development and ownership activities only through the Company. The current and the historical performance of the Initial Hotels have exceeded industry averages. During the five year period ended December 31, 1995, the Initial Hotels generated REVPAR that exceeded the REVPAR of their local competing hotels (in each market, four to seven competitors as currently defined by Boykin Management for property and personnel performance evaluation purposes) by 16% on average and exceeded the U.S. average REVPAR for upscale/moderate full-service hotels by 26%. In 1991, a year generally considered weak in the hotel industry, the REVPAR of the Initial Hotels exceeded the REVPAR of their local competing hotels by 19% and exceeded the U.S. average REVPAR for upscale/moderate full- 1 6 service hotels by 29%. Over the three year and five year periods ended December 31, 1995 the aggregate revenues of the Initial Hotels increased at a compound annual rate of 4.4% and 3.6% per year, respectively. The following table compares average occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the Initial Hotels with that for their local competition for the periods indicated.

(2) Source: Smith Travel Research (reports dated August 1 and 5, 1996). Smith Travel Research is not associated in any way with the Company or any of its Affiliates and has not provided any form of assistance in connection with the Offering. Local Competition includes the Initial Hotels and four to seven competitors in each market, as currently defined by Boykin Management for property and personnel performance evaluation purposes and used for all periods shown. Boykin Management's consistently-applied criteria for defining each hotel's competitive set include comparability of location, target customers, rates, and level of service provided. See the table under "The Company -- General -- Historical Performance" for comparative information regarding all upscale/moderate hotels and all U.S. hotels, and "Business and Properties -- The Initial Hotels -- General."
Management believes that, while the lodging industry as a whole is benefiting from an improved supply/demand dynamic, the greatest opportunities for revenue growth and profitability will arise from skillful management of hotel properties. An integral element of this management is the continuous evaluation of each hotel's position in its market and the implementation, as necessary, of changes in franchise, theme and customer focus to maximize the continuing returns from the hotel. The Company attributes the excellent performance of the Initial Hotels to the successful implementation of this asset management strategy. The Company also intends to achieve a significant part of its growth through the acquisition, redevelopment, repositioning and active asset management of additional full-service hotels. The Company has entered into an agreement providing for a $75 million credit facility (the "Credit Facility") for acquiring additional hotels and for certain other purposes, including capital expenditures and working capital, as necessary, and will draw approximately $5 million from the Credit Facility in conjunction with the Offering. The Company believes that there are full-service hotel properties that can be acquired at a discount to replacement cost, and that many of these properties are located in areas of increasing demand. RISK FACTORS An investment in the Common Shares involves various risks (see "Risk Factors"), including, among others: - Dependence on key personnel and control over the operations of the Company, the Partnership and the Initial Lessee by Robert and John Boykin; - Dependence on lessees for operating income, including risks that the lessees will become subject to liabilities relating to the Initial Hotels and hotel properties subsequently leased to them, risks of default resulting in the termination of franchise, liquor and other operating licenses, and risks associated with re-leasing hotel properties after a lessee default or other lease termination event; - The hotel industry generally and the Initial Hotels specifically; - Franchise relationships, including the possibility that a franchisor may impose various increased costs, exercise options to buy or lease properties, impose restrictions on the Company's or the Initial Lessee's 2 7 ability to compete with other franchisor-affiliated hotels, potential loss of franchises on franchise defaults and the uncertainty and costs of renewing franchises upon their expiration; - Conflicts of interest between the Company and Boykin Group Affiliates, including risks associated with the lack of third party appraisals for the Initial Hotels and arm's-length negotiations in connection with the formation of the Company; - Receipt by Boykin Group Affiliates, including Robert and John Boykin, of substantial benefits from the Formation Transactions; - The ownership, leasing, acquisition, development and expansion of hotel properties, including risks of changes in economic and real estate market conditions, changes in interest rates and the availability of financing, the impact of environmental laws, the ongoing need for capital improvements, and other factors beyond the Company's control; - The Company's lack of operating history and lack of experience in operating in accordance with the requirements for maintaining its qualification as a REIT, and taxation of the Company as a regular corporation if it fails to quality as a REIT; - Limitations on shareholders' ability to acquire or change control of the Company, including the restriction on ownership of Common Shares by any single person to 9.0% of the outstanding shares; - The absence of any contractual limitation on debt that the Company may incur; - Substantial and immediate dilution in the net tangible book value per Common Share to be experienced by the purchasers of Common Shares in the Offering (see "Dilution"); and - The absence of any public market for the Company's Common Shares prior to the Offering. THE INITIAL LESSEE In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company may not operate hotels. The Company will lease its properties to established hotel operators pursuant to leases that will provide the Company with the greater of a base rental income or a percentage of revenues from operations. The Initial Hotels will be leased pursuant to such leases (the "Percentage Leases") to the Initial Lessee. The Company's structure is designed to accommodate multiple lessees, and the Company intends to aggressively pursue relationships with additional hotel operators that have successful operating histories and demonstrated management expertise. In connection with the Formation Transactions, Robert W. Boykin and John E. Boykin will form and indirectly own the Initial Lessee. The Initial Lessee will continue the 37-year hotel operation and management business of the Boykin Group and will operate the Initial Hotels under the Percentage Leases. The operations of the Boykin Group are fully integrated, with capabilities in all phases of development and management of hotel properties. As of June 30, 1996, the Boykin Group had approximately 2,400 employees and owned or managed 21 properties containing 4,354 rooms located throughout the United States. Because neither the Company nor the Initial Lessee will have to pay a separate hotel management company to manage the Initial Hotels, the Company believes it will obtain a higher rent than such added management arrangements would permit, thus maximizing the Company's Percentage Lease revenues. The Company believes that the Boykin Group's ability to achieve consistently above-average market penetration during various economic cycles positions the Company, through the Initial Lessee, to maximize its returns on the Initial Hotels. While the Initial Lessee will manage hotels only under the Percentage Leases, its subsidiaries will continue hotel management activities for owners other than the Company, and the award-winning hotel interior design business and the hotel and restaurant food, beverage, supply and equipment purchasing business now operated by the Boykin Group. The Company expects that these operations will be continued in part with a view to introducing the Company to acquisition opportunities. In addition, the income generated by the Initial Lessee and its subsidiaries will strengthen the Initial Lessee's ability to perform under the Percentage Leases. 3 8 The Initial Lessee and its owners will have interests that conflict with the Company's interests in connection with the structuring and enforcement of the Percentage Leases and any other leases and agreements between the Company and the Initial Lessee, and in connection with activities that may maximize profits for the Initial Lessee without necessarily benefiting the Company. The Company and the Initial Lessee have agreed on several measures to align the interests of the Initial Lessee and its owners with the interests of the Company and its shareholders and to address these conflicts of interest: - The Initial Lessee's owners and certain other Boykin Group Affiliates will own approximately 12.6% of the Company following completion of the Offering in the form of Units exchangeable, at the Company's election, for Common Shares, and have agreed to retain these interests for at least three years following completion of the Offering; - Robert W. Boykin will resign from his positions with Boykin Management in connection with the Formation Transactions and will not hold office in the Initial Lessee, and neither John E. Boykin nor any other officer of the Initial Lessee will hold office in the Company; - Any distributions from the Initial Lessee (other than distributions to cover income taxes) during the first ten years after the Offering, and any net cash proceeds of any sale of the Initial Lessee within ten years after the Offering, will be used to purchase Units or Common Shares (subject to applicable ownership limitations) that must be held for at least two years from the purchase date; - The Initial Lessee's consolidated net worth on completion of the Formation Transactions will be approximately $3 million, and half of the Initial Lessee's consolidated earnings (after distributions to cover income taxes) during the first ten years after the Offering will be retained in the Initial Lessee and its subsidiaries until their consolidated net worth reaches 25% of the aggregate annual rent payments under the Percentage Leases (and will be retained thereafter during that period to maintain that level); - Determinations to be made on behalf of the Company in connection with any conflict of interest involving any Boykin Group Affiliate will be made by the Company's Independent Directors; - Each Boykin Group Affiliate will conduct all future hotel acquisition, development and ownership activities only through the Company; - Any change in control of the Initial Lessee without the prior written consent of the Company will constitute a default under the Percentage Leases; and - The Percentage Leases will contain cross-default provisions that will enhance the Company's ability to enforce strict compliance with each Percentage Lease. The Initial Lessee also intends to develop incentive compensation plans for its hotel-level and corporate-level senior executives which tie such compensation in part to the performance of the Company and in part to the performance of the Initial Hotels. Such plans may include awards of Company shares, options and other similar incentives. ADDITIONAL LESSEES The Company believes that having multiple tenants will facilitate meeting its growth objectives, and intends to pursue relationships with additional lessees. The Company believes there are a number of capable hotel owner-operators who are undercapitalized and thus unable to reposition their properties adequately, or are faced with a difficult financing environment because of today's increased equity requirements, and will be willing to engage in a sale and leaseback of their properties on terms that would allow both parties to participate in the improving fundamentals of the lodging industry. In addition, the Company believes certain national franchisors are willing to develop a relationship with the Company and may become additional lessees as a means of expanding their franchise systems. The Company believes that its management's long tenure and reputation in the hotel industry will provide the Company access to these opportunities and enable the Company to select hotel properties and lessees that will further its acquisition and growth strategies. 4 9 THE INITIAL HOTELS The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Initial Hotels:

5 10 BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES BUSINESS OBJECTIVES The Company's primary business objectives are to maximize current returns to shareholders through increases in cash flow available for distribution and to increase long-term total returns to shareholders through appreciation in value of the Common Shares. The Company will seek to achieve these objectives through participation in increased revenues from the Initial Hotels pursuant to the Percentage Leases and by selective acquisition, ownership, redevelopment, repositioning and expansion of additional hotel properties. The Company will seek to continue to invest in properties where the Company's established industry and marketing expertise and other resources will enable it to improve the acquired hotels' performance. BUSINESS STRATEGIES The Company's strategies to meet its objectives include (i) achieving revenue growth in the Initial Hotels, (ii) acquiring and leasing hotel and resort properties in the upscale and moderate markets on an accretive basis, (iii) strategically upgrading hotel properties, and (iv) expanding and developing additional hotel properties. Internal Growth. The Company believes that, based on historical operating results and the strength of the Company's management team, portfolio and markets, the Initial Hotels should provide the Company with the opportunity for cash flow growth through the Percentage Leases. Over the three year and five year periods ended December 31, 1995 the aggregate total revenues of the Initial Hotels increased at a compound annual rate of 4.4% and 3.6% per year, respectively. See "The Company -- General -- Cash Flow Growth" and "-- Historical Performance" for further discussion of the performance of the Initial Hotels. The Company believes that the revenue and cash flow of the Initial Hotels will be maximized by intensive management and marketing. The Company intends to derive increased cash flow through the application of the Initial Lessee's operating strategies, which include the active management and balancing of room rates with forecasted room demand in order to maximize total hotel revenues ("yield management"). The Company believes that the Initial Lessee's commitment to customer service and the experience of its management team should position the Company to capitalize on the expected continued strength in the economy and improvement in the U.S. hotel market. The Company's objectives include enhancing its competitive position by continuing a regular program of renovation and capital improvement. Acquisitions. The Company believes that attractive opportunities exist to acquire full-service hotels serving the upscale and moderate market segments of the lodging industry. The Company intends to concentrate its investment activities on hotel properties that are in one or more of the following categories: - Product Type -- Full-service commercial hotels, airport hotels, major tourist hotels and destination resorts in major markets and business centers; - Market Repositioning Opportunities -- Undervalued hotels whose performance can be significantly enhanced through new brand affiliations, implementation of new marketing strategies and effective yield management; - Redevelopment and Renovation Opportunities -- Hotels with sound operational fundamentals that, because of a lack of capital, require physical renovation or redevelopment to achieve their full performance potential; and - Portfolio Acquisitions -- Portfolios of hotels that result in geographic economies of scale or that may be leased back to qualified hotel operators as additional lessees, and that may benefit from the Company's repositioning and redevelopment experience and access to capital. As a result of the Company's management's successful transactional activities, which include approximately $750 million in hotel acquisition, disposition, recapitalization, renovation, development and repositioning over the last 10 years, the Company believes it possesses a competitive advantage in market knowledge, technical expertise and industry relationships that will enable it to continue successfully to implement its acquisition strategy on a national scale. Further, the Company believes it will benefit from its continuing 6 11 relationship with the Initial Lessee and from developing relationships with additional lessees who have a demonstrated history of managing hotel properties. As a public company, the Company expects to have access to a wide variety of financing sources to fund acquisitions, such as the ability to issue public and private debt, equity and hybrid securities, and the ability to utilize Units as consideration when cash is not appropriate for tax or other reasons. Additionally, the Credit Facility will enable the Company to contract for and complete the acquisition of additional hotels without financing contingencies. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Financing Strategy" for a description of the terms of the Credit Facility. The Company's philosophy is to identify and actively seek hotel properties that can be associated with the brands that will lead the hospitality industry in REVPAR, such as Marriott(R), Radisson(R), Hilton(R), Hyatt(R), Westin(R), Omni(R), Doubletree(R), Sheraton(R), Holiday Inn(R) and Quality Suites(R). The Company believes that it can maximize its market share and revenues by taking advantage of its orientation toward sales and marketing to identify the most effective branding and to leverage its brands with effective direct sales strategies. The Company expects to continue to affiliate with a number of different franchise companies in order to maximize the performance of its hotels by providing greater access to a broad base of national marketing and reservation systems and to mitigate the risks of franchise loss and franchise overlap. The Company will seek to maintain a geographically diversified hotel portfolio, and may also cluster hotels within certain primary markets in order to take advantage of operational and managerial economies of scale. The Company believes it has the capacity to acquire additional hotels without significantly increasing management and overhead expenses. Renovation and Development. The Company believes that a regular program of capital improvements at the Initial Hotels, including replacement and refurbishment of FF&E, will maintain and enhance their competitiveness and maximize revenue growth under the Percentage Leases. During the fiscal years 1991 through 1995, approximately $18 million was spent on renovations and capital improvements at the Initial Hotels, including approximately $1.1 million for restoration of the Melbourne Quality Suites hotel following damage from Hurricane Erin in August 1995. This represents an average of approximately $1,400 per room per year (excluding the amount spent on the Melbourne property restoration, which was funded entirely from insurance proceeds). The Percentage Leases require the Company to contribute to the capital expenditures fund (the "Capital Expenditures Fund") aggregate minimum reserves of 4% of total revenue of the Initial Hotels. For the 12-month period ended June 30, 1996, this reserve would have represented approximately 6.1% of room revenue and an average of approximately $1,400 per room. The Company intends to use the Capital Expenditures Fund for the replacement and refurbishment of FF&E and other capital expenditures (approximately $250,000 of which is required by franchisors) to maintain and enhance the competitive position of the Initial Hotels, although it may make other uses of amounts in the fund that it considers appropriate from time to time. The Company intends to make available $3.5 million from the Credit Facility to fund the Capital Expenditures Fund, as needed. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Renovation Strategy," and "Business and Properties -- The Initial Hotels." The Boykin Group's experience in developing and renovating its properties will assist the Company in maintaining its properties' competitive edge in their respective markets. The Company may develop additional full-service or upscale limited-service hotels on land that the Company acquires in its current geographic markets or on land contiguous to the Initial Hotels. The Company believes that selective development of hotels in its existing geographic markets would enable it to take advantage of operating efficiencies to generate attractive returns on investment. Financing Strategy. Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will have approximately $5 million of outstanding debt. While its organizational documents contain no limitation on the amount of debt it may incur, the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, intends to use the Credit Facility for acquisitions while maintaining a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio (measured at the time debt is incurred) of not more than 45%. The Company may from time to time re-evaluate its debt capitalization policy in light of economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market values of its properties, acquisition, development and expansion opportunities, and other factors. 7 12 FORMATION TRANSACTIONS The principal transactions in connection with the formation (the "Formation") of the Company as a REIT and the acquisition of the Initial Hotels by the Partnership (the "Formation Transactions") are as follows: - The Company was formed as an Ohio corporation in February 1996 and issued one Common Share to Raymond P. Heitland. - Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will contribute approximately $111.6 million of the net proceeds to the Partnership in exchange for an approximately 82.0% equity interest as the sole general partner of the Partnership, and will lend approximately $40 million of the net proceeds to the Partnership in exchange for a note (the "Intercompany Convertible Note") bearing interest initially at 9.5% per annum, which is convertible by the Company into equity interests in the Partnership based on the initial public offering price of the Common Shares. - After the Contributed Partnerships convey certain working capital assets and liabilities to the Initial Lessee, certain Boykin Group Affiliates, the Other Partners and the Boykin Associates will contribute their interests in the Contributed Partnerships to the Partnership and indemnify the Partnership against liabilities of the Contributed Partnerships other than the mortgage indebtedness to be discharged by the Partnership. The Partnership will thereby acquire a 100% ownership interest in all of the Initial Hotels for an aggregate of approximately 1.38 million Units (valued at approximately $27.6 million), approximately $9.1 million in cash, the repayment of approximately $8.1 million of existing indebtedness on the Initial Hotels, and the assumption of approximately $136.6 million of mortgage indebtedness to be repaid from the proceeds of the Offering. Completion of the Formation Transactions will result in the realization by the Boykin Group Affiliates, the Boykin Associates and Other Partners of an immediate accretion in the net tangible book value of their investment in the Partnership of $37.62 per Unit (an aggregate accretion of $51.8 million). - The recipients of Units will have rights (generally not exercisable until the third anniversary of the closing of the Offering, in the case of the Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Associates) to exchange their Units for cash (the "Exchange Rights"), subject to the Company's right to issue Common Shares for those Units on a one-for-one basis. - The Partnership will use approximately $134.4 million of the funds contributed to it, along with approximately $5 million from the Credit Facility to repay $136.6 million of third-party mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Initial Hotels, and for the payment of formation costs, working capital and other general partnership purposes. - Robert and John Boykin will form the Initial Lessee, which will acquire and succeed to the business of Boykin Management, and the Partnership will lease each Initial Hotel to the Initial Lessee pursuant to a Percentage Lease. - The Initial Lessee will assume the liquor licenses, franchise agreements and other licenses and permits and certain working capital liabilities of the Initial Hotels. - Robert W. Boykin will resign from Boykin Management and become the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and will enter into the employment agreement and be granted the stock options described under "Management -- Employment Agreements" and "Management -- Executive Compensation." See "The Formation" for a further discussion of the benefits to, and value received by, the Boykin Group Affiliates, the Boykin Associates and the Other Partners in connection with the Formation Transactions. 8 13 ORGANIZATIONAL CHART As a result of the Offering and the Formation Transactions, the relationships among the Company, the Partnership, the Initial Hotels and the Initial Lessee will be as follows: [graphic] [The propsectus contains a flow chart which sets forth the relationships among the Company, the Partnership, the Initial Hotels and the Initial Lessee as a result of the Offering and the Formation Transactions. The Company will own an 85.7% general partner interest (assuming conversion of the Intercompany Convertible Note) and certain Boykin Group Affiliates and Other Partners will own a 12.6% and 1.7% limited partner interest, respectively, in the Partnership. The Partnership, which will own the Initial Hotels, will lease the Initial Hotels to the Initial Lessee pursuant to the Percentage Leases. Robert W. Boykin and John E. Boykin are the sole beneficial owners of the Initial Lessee with a 53.8% and 46.2% interest, respectively.] 9 14 SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION The following table sets forth unaudited summary pro forma consolidated financial information for the Company, unaudited summary pro forma financial information for the Initial Lessee and summary combined historical financial information for the Initial Hotels, which are presented as the Initial Hotels (Excluding Lake Norman Hotels), and the Lake Norman Hotels.

The pro forma information does not purport to represent what the Company's or the Initial Lessee's financial position or results of operations would actually have been if the consummation of the Formation Transactions had, in fact, occurred on such dates, or to project the Company's or the Initial Lessee's financial position or results of operations at any future date or for any future period. 2. Eight of the Initial Hotels utilize December 31 as year-end for financial reporting purposes and one of the Initial Hotels utilizes a September 30 fiscal year-end. For pro forma purposes, adjustments have been made to conform the year-ends of all the Initial Hotels to stated periods shown. For historical financial reporting purposes of the Initial Hotels (Excluding the Lake Norman Hotels), for the five years ended December 31, 1995, the September 30 financial data of the Initial Hotel having a September 30 fiscal year end have been combined with the December 31, 1995 financial data of the other Initial Hotels. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 and six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, the financial data of the hotel with the September 30 year end have been combined using the same month and periods as the other eight hotels. Pro forma financial data of the Initial Lessee for the year ended December 31, 1995 includes the operating results of Boykin Management Company (BMC) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996. For all other pro forma periods, the operating results of BMC have been conformed to June 30, 1995 and 1996 as applicable. In the opinion of management, the impact of using the different interim period ends is not material. 3. Represents lease payments from the Initial Lessee to the Partnership calculated on a pro forma basis by applying the rent provisions in the Percentage Leases to the historical revenues of the Initial Hotels for the period indicated, including for the Melbourne Quality Suites Inn an additional $725 of rent for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the 12 months ended June 30, 1996, required under the rental interruption insurance provision of the Percentage Lease agreements. The rent formula utilized in computing the pro forma Percentage Lease revenue and expense includes, for the calendar year 1995, an adjustment to reduce the threshold revenue amounts in the Percentage Lease formulas by the 2.5% increase in the Consumer Price Index for that year.
13 18 4. Estimated at $1.45 million annually for salaries, professional fees, directors' and officers' insurance, directors fees and expenses and other general and administrative expenses associated with being a public company. 5. Calculated as 14.3% of the income before minority interest. 6. Represents Funds From Operations of the Company, on a consolidated basis. The following table computes Funds From Operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 under the newly adopted National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. Funds From Operations consists of income (loss) before minority interest (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property (including furniture and equipment) plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Industry analysts consider Funds From Operations to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. Funds From Operations should not be considered as a basis for computing distributions or as an alternative (i) to net income or other measurements under generally accepted accounting principles, as an indicator of operating performance, or (ii) to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, as a measure of liquidity. Funds From Operations does not reflect cash expenditures for capital improvements or principal amortization of indebtedness on the Initial Hotels.

7. Represents additions to the Capital Expenditures Fund calculated as 4% of total revenue of the Initial Hotels, adjusted for $1,261 of additional revenues at the Melbourne Quality Suites for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 as required under the rental interruption insurance provision of the Percentage Leases. 8. Calculated as Funds From Operations less additions to the Capital Expenditures Fund plus amortization of debt issue costs included in interest expense. 9. Represents estimated initial dividends to be paid based on the initial dividend rate of $1.80 per share and an aggregate of 9,653 Common Shares and Units outstanding. 10. Represents income (loss) before extraordinary items, excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense and gain on property insurance recovery. 11. The Summary Combined Historical Operating Data, Cash Flow Data and Other Data for the Lake Norman Hotels for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 are presented on a pro forma basis, making necessary pro forma adjustments to the historical operating results to reflect additional depreciation expense associated with the purchase accounting writeup to the investment in hotel properties, the additional interest expense associated with the acquisition indebtedness and an increase in management fee expense. 12. From August 1993 until February 1996, the catering, meeting, lounge and restaurant facilities of the Lake Norman Holiday Inn were operated by a third party operator. In February 1996, when a Boykin Group Affiliate purchased the hotel facility, it also purchased the food and beverage business assets of this operator. DISTRIBUTIONS The Company intends to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of Common Shares initially equal to $0.45 per share ($1.80 per share on an annual basis), which would represent approximately 97% of the Company's pro forma Cash Available for Distribution for the twelve months ending June 30, 1996. The distribution for the period commencing on the completion of the Offering and ending December 31, 1996 is expected to be a pro rata portion of the initial quarterly distribution. The Company does not intend to change its estimated initial distribution per share if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised. The Company estimates that the entire annual distribution to holders of Common Shares for 1996 will represent a return of capital for Federal income tax purposes. The Company's expectation reflects, among other things, the effect of nonrecurring penalties to be incurred in connection with the prepayment of certain debt at the time of the Formation Transactions. The Company anticipates that substantially all of the distributions in respect of 1997 will be taxable as dividends. The statements in this paragraph are forward-looking statements involving certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements. Factors that might cause such differences are discussed elsewhere in this Prospectus. See "Distribution Policy" for information regarding the basis for the Company's estimates, and "Risk Factors." The declaration and payment of any distributions by the Company will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, the Company's receipt of cash 14 19 distributions from the Partnership, the Company's level of indebtedness, any contractual restrictions, and other factors considered relevant by the Board. The level of the Partnership's cash distributions will be determined by the Partnership in light of its cash needs, including its requirements for investing and financing activities and other anticipated cash needs. The Partnership's principal source of revenue initially will be payments of rent by the Initial Lessee under the Percentage Leases. See "Risk Factors -- Hotel Industry Risks -- Seasonality" for a discussion of the effect of the seasonal nature of hotel revenues on the Company's receipt of rent payments from the Initial Lessee. TAX STATUS OF THE COMPANY The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 1996. If the Company qualifies as a REIT, under current Federal income tax laws the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income it distributes to shareholders as long as it distributes at least 95% of its REIT taxable income currently and satisfies a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to Federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates, which would effectively impose on the Company's shareholders the "double taxation" that generally results from investment in a corporation. The Company will receive an opinion of its counsel in connection with the closing of the Offering to the effect that, based on certain representations made by the Company and certain assumptions, the Company will be organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code and that the method of operation of the Company and the Partnership will permit the Company to continue to so qualify for its current and future taxable years. See "Risk Factors -- Tax Risks -- Failure to Qualify as a REIT" and "Federal Income Tax Considerations." Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and will be subject to Federal and state income taxes and may be subject to excise taxes on its undistributed income.

15 20 RISK FACTORS Prospective investors should carefully consider, among other factors, the matters described below, each of which could have adverse consequences to the Company and adversely affect the value of the Common Shares. DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL The Company is dependent on the efforts of Robert W. Boykin, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Raymond P. Heitland, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and Mark L. Bishop, Senior Vice President -- Acquisitions and Development. The loss of the services of any of these executive officers could have a material adverse effect on the performance of the Company. The Company does not maintain a "key-man" life insurance policy with respect to any executive officer. CONTROL BY BOYKIN GROUP AND LACK OF SHAREHOLDER CONTROL Upon completion of the Offering, Robert and John Boykin (who are brothers) will have the ability to acquire in the aggregate approximately 11.0% of the Company through their direct or indirect ownership of Units that they may exchange for Common Shares on a one-for-one-basis (subject to the Company's right to pay cash in lieu of issuing shares), commencing on the third anniversary of the closing of the Offering. Robert Boykin will also have significant control over the operations of the Company as a result of his senior management position with the Company. Robert and John Boykin will have significant control over the operations of the Initial Lessee as a result of their ownership interests and directorships in the Initial Lessee and John Boykin's senior management position with the Initial Lessee. See "Lessees -- The Initial Lessee" and "Management." Accordingly, Robert and John Boykin and their Affiliates will have substantial influence over the Company, which influence may not necessarily be consistent with the interests of other shareholders. The investment and financing policies of the Company and its policies with respect to certain other activities, including its growth, capitalization, distributions, REIT status and operating policies, are determined by the Board of Directors. These policies may be changed from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors without a vote of the shareholders of the Company, although the Board of Directors has no present intention to make any such change. Any such change could be detrimental to the value of the shareholders' interests in the Company. DEPENDENCE ON LESSEES The Company will lease the Initial Hotels to the Initial Lessee under the Percentage Leases and expects to lease any hotels acquired after completion of the Offering to the Initial Lessee or to other lessees under similar leases. As a result, the Company will be dependent on lessees for all of its operating income. The Initial Lessee may be subject to obligations to and possible claims of third parties arising out of its subsidiaries' separate operating activities. See "The Lessees -- The Initial Lessee." The incurrence of any such liabilities could have a material adverse effect on the Initial Lessee's ability to perform under the Percentage Leases and any other leases between the Company and the Initial Lessee. The Initial Lessee's obligations under the Percentage Leases are unsecured. Each lessee is expected to hold in its name the franchise licenses, liquor licenses and other operating licenses and permits relating to the hotels leased to it. On a default by a lessee resulting in the termination of any Percentage Lease or other lease, the franchise license, liquor licenses and operating licenses and permits held by the lessee with respect to the affected property will not devolve automatically on a successor operator designated by the Company, and the process of transferring those licenses and permits to a successor operator may be costly and time-consuming. Furthermore, any default by a lessee under any such franchise license, liquor license or operating license or permit could result in the loss or suspension of that license or permit. The Company may be adversely affected as a result of any loss, suspension or delay in reinstating or transferring any such license or permit. If the Company terminates any Percentage Lease or other lease following a default by a lessee, the Company will have to re-lease the affected property in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT. There can 16 21 be no assurance that the Company would be able to do so on terms substantially similar to those contained in the terminated lease. The Company also may have to incur substantial expenditures in connection with any such re-leasing. Moreover, in the event of a bankruptcy of a lessee, the Company's ability to re-lease the affected hotels or recover damages based on the default under or rejection of the relevant leases by the lessee would be adversely affected. With respect to any hotel property acquired by the Company following the Offering, the Company will seek to enter into a lease with the Initial Lessee or another lessee on terms substantially similar to the Percentage Leases. The inability to conclude any such lease or any lease with a different lessee, or any delay in establishing the terms thereof, could adversely affect the Company's ability to expand its portfolio of properties. HOTEL INDUSTRY RISKS OPERATING RISKS. The Company's hotel properties will be subject to all operating risks common to the hotel industry. These risks include, among other things, competition from other hotels; overbuilding in the hotel industry, which has adversely affected occupancy and room rates; increases in operating costs attributable to inflation and other factors, which increases have not consistently been, and may not necessarily in the future be, offset by increased room rates; significant dependence on business and commercial travelers and tourism; increases in energy costs and other expenses of travel; and adverse effects of general and local economic conditions. The Company's hotel properties are also subject to risks associated with food and beverage operations and risks presented by governmental regulations and authorities, particularly with respect to liquor licenses, which could result in interruptions in food and beverage operations. These factors could adversely affect a lessee's ability to make lease payments and therefore the Company's ability to make expected distributions to shareholders. COMPETITION. The Company's hotel properties will compete with other hotel properties in their geographic markets. The Company may also be competing for investment opportunities with entities that have substantially greater financial resources than the Company. These entities may generally be able to accept more risk than the Company can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of entities in which investments may be made or risks attendant to a geographic concentration of investments. Competition may generally reduce the number of suitable investment opportunities offered to the Company and increase the bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell. INVESTMENT IN SINGLE INDUSTRY. The Company's current strategy is to acquire interests in hotel properties. The Company does not expect to seek to diversify its real estate investments, and will therefore be subject to risks inherent in investments in a single industry. SEASONALITY. The hotel industry is seasonal. Generally, hotel revenues are greater in the second and third quarters than in the first and fourth quarters. While the Initial Hotels in Florida generate comparatively greater revenues from January through April than the other Initial Hotels, the Initial Hotels continue to experience this quarterly effect on an aggregate basis. This effect can be expected to cause quarterly fluctuations in the Company's lease revenues. Notwithstanding these fluctuations, the Company does not expect this seasonality to affect its quarterly dividend payments. LIMITED NUMBER OF HOTELS; GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION. The Company initially will own nine hotels, two of which, containing approximately 32% of the rooms of the Initial Hotels, are in the Cleveland, Ohio market. Significant adverse changes in the operating results of any of the Initial Hotels, or in economic conditions in any of the Company's markets, could have a material adverse effect on lease revenues and on the Company's ability to make expected distributions to its shareholders. FRANCHISE RISKS. The Initial Hotels are subject to franchise agreements. The Company expects that hotels that it may acquire will also be subject to franchise agreements. The failure of an Initial Hotel, the Company, the Initial Lessee or another Company lessee to meet standards imposed by a franchisor or otherwise to adhere to a franchise agreement could result in the loss or cancellation of the franchise agreement. A franchisor also could condition the continuation of a franchise agreement on the completion of 17 22 capital improvements that the Company determines are unwarranted in light of economic conditions. In that event, the Company may elect to allow a franchise agreement to lapse. If any franchise is terminated or expires, the Company and the lessee may seek to obtain a suitable replacement franchise or to operate the affected property independently of a franchise agreement. The loss of a franchise could have a material adverse effect on the operations or the underlying value of the hotel covered by the franchise because of the loss of associated name recognition, marketing support and centralized reservation systems provided by the franchisor. In addition, a franchisor may seek to impose a charge as a condition to consenting to a proposed sale or lease of a hotel property. The Percentage Leases require the Initial Lessee to cooperate with the Company in its efforts to effect relevant sales and leases without incurring such charges. The franchise agreements with Marriott governing five of the Initial Hotels contain a provision requiring the franchisee, on receiving a bona fide offer to buy the related Initial Hotel, to give the franchisor the option to buy that hotel on the same terms as are contained in that offer. These agreements also require Marriott's consent to the sale of the hotel and, subject to certain conditions, to the incurrence and refinancing of indebtedness secured by the hotel, which Marriott may not unreasonably withhold. These provisions may inhibit the Company's ability to sell the hotels. The Marriott Franchise Agreements also require the Company, upon a default under the franchise agreement by the Initial Lessee, (i) to arrange for a replacement lessee, acceptable to Marriott, for the remainder of the franchise term, and (ii) to guarantee the performance of certain obligations of the Initial Lessee, including the payment of specified fees, the making of required renovations and other capital improvements, the replacement of FF&E and certain equipment and materials, the maintenance of insurance, and certain other obligations relating to the maintenance of the Marriott system's standards. RENOVATION AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS REQUIREMENTS. Hotel properties require continuing renovation and capital improvements, including periodic refurbishment and replacement of FF&E, to remain competitive. While the Company will maintain the Capital Expenditures Fund to fund such renovations and improvements, required expenditures could exceed the Company's expectations. If that occurs, the incremental costs could adversely affect Cash Available for Distribution. In addition, renovations and other capital improvements entail certain risks, including environmental risks, construction cost overruns and delays, and unanticipated downturns in demand or unanticipated emergence of competition in the affected market. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST CONFLICTS BETWEEN INITIAL LESSEE'S INTERESTS AND COMPANY'S INTERESTS. Robert and John Boykin will derive benefits from the operation of the Initial Hotels by the Initial Lessee. Accordingly, they have faced conflicts of interest in connection with the structuring of the Percentage Leases and may face such conflicts upon renewals thereof. They will also face conflicts of interest in connection with the structuring of leases for hotels the Company may acquire in the future and lease to the Initial Lessee and in operating the Initial Hotels and such other acquired hotels in a manner that may maximize profits for the Initial Lessee without necessarily benefiting the Company. Determinations to be made on behalf of the Company in connection with any such conflict will be subject to the approval of the Company's Independent Directors. See "Policies and Objectives with Respect to Certain Activities -- Conflict of Interest Policy." DIFFERING CONSEQUENCES OF FINANCING OR SALE OF HOTELS. Unlike public shareholders purchasing Common Shares in the Offering, certain Boykin Group Affiliates will own interests in the Partnership in addition to Common Shares. As a result, the sale of the Initial Hotels by the Partnership may result in different and more adverse tax consequences to these Boykin Group Affiliates than would be experienced by the Company and the public shareholders, and they may seek to influence the Company not to sell an Initial Hotel even though that sale might otherwise be financially advantageous to the Company and the public shareholders. In addition, if the Company sells an Initial Hotel to a non-Affiliate and terminates the related Percentage Lease in connection therewith, the Company must pay the Initial Lessee the fair market value of its leasehold interest in the remaining term of that Percentage Lease. Finally, certain Boykin Group Affiliates and certain Other Partners of the Contributed Partnerships may seek to influence the Partnership to incur debt on the Initial Hotels or any acquired hotels, on the prepayment or conversion of the Intercompany Convertible 18 23 Note, to continue the tax deferral inherent in the assets they will be contributing to the Partnership. See "Business and Properties -- The Intercompany Convertible Note." CONFLICTING INTERESTS IN ENFORCEMENT OF TERMS OF CERTAIN AGREEMENTS; TIME ALLOCATION CONFLICTS. Robert W. Boykin will have a conflict of interest with respect to his obligations as an executive officer and director of the Company to enforce the terms of certain agreements being entered into in connection with the Formation, including the Percentage Leases, his and certain Boykin Group Affiliates' noncompetition agreements with the Company, the agreements relating to the conveyance to the Company of the Initial Hotels and certain related assets, and the Intercompany Convertible Note. Any failure to enforce the material terms of any of these agreements, including the indemnification provisions for breaches of representations and warranties contained in the agreements governing the contribution of the Initial Hotels, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Mr. Boykin, who will be an officer and director of the Company and a director of the Initial Lessee, may also face conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation of his time and resources. AFFILIATES' PARTICIPATION IN OTHER ACTIVITIES. At the time of the Formation Transactions, subsidiaries of the Initial Lessee will acquire and continue the third-party hotel management, interior design and purchasing services businesses of Boykin Management. John E. Boykin will serve as the initial Secretary of the subsidiaries. The subsidiaries initially will manage 11 hotels, none of which is owned by the Company, Boykin Management or any other Boykin Group Affiliate. Three of these hotels are Hampton Inns in the Chicago, Illinois area, containing an aggregate of 366 rooms. These hotels are owned by an insurance company and have been managed by Boykin Management since December 1995. The remaining eight managed hotels, which Boykin Management has managed since February 1996 on behalf of an institutional investor, contain an aggregate of 1,154 rooms and are located in Santa Barbara County and Ventura County, California. Robert and John Boykin hold interests in a joint venture formed to purchase, other than for hotel purposes, a six-acre parcel in the immediate vicinity of the Buffalo Marriott Hotel. The Company and the joint venture have entered into an agreement that provides for certain cross-easements between the properties and provides that the land will contain specific deed restrictions to prevent the development of any hotel thereon. William J. Boykin, the retired Chairman of Boykin Management and the father of Robert and John Boykin, is developing a Hampton Inn on certain real property owned by him in Miami, Florida that is adjacent to a shopping center developed by him in 1989. The hotel is expected to open in the fall of 1996. No other Boykin Group Affiliate will have an interest in the development of this hotel, but the Company will have a right of first refusal to purchase the hotel if William J. Boykin elects to sell it. LACK OF INDEPENDENT APPRAISALS AND ARM'S-LENGTH NEGOTIATIONS No independent appraisals were obtained or arm's length negotiations conducted in connection with the formation of the Company. The terms of the contribution of the Initial Hotels to the Company were determined by the principals of the Boykin Group, who will receive an economic benefit as a result of these contributions. The Company believes it is appropriate to value the Company as a going concern, rather than with a view toward values that could be obtained from a liquidation of the Company or of the assets owned by the Company. Accordingly, the valuation of the Company has been determined based primarily on an estimate of the Company's Cash Available for Distribution, rather than on an asset-by-asset valuation based on historical costs or current market value. No assurance can be given that the value of the economic benefits received by the principals of the Boykin Group and other Boykin Group Affiliates in the formation of the Company accurately reflects the fair market value of the assets contributed by them to the Company. See "Certain Transactions" and "Underwriting." AFFILIATES' BENEFITS FROM THE FORMATION Certain Boykin Group Affiliates will receive the following benefits as a result of the Formation Transactions: (i) increased cash distributions from the operations of the Initial Hotels, because of the prepayment of mortgage debt; (ii) elimination of approximately $5.3 million of mortgage debt guaranties; (iii) the ability to exchange Units received in the Formation Transactions for cash or, at the Company's election, for Common Shares with registration rights, which will be more liquid than their interests in the Contributed Partnerships; (iv) deferral of income tax by contributing their interests in the Contributed 19 24 Partnerships; (v) repayment from the proceeds of the Offering of approximately $3.1 million of loans made by Boykin Management for the benefit of one of the Initial Hotels; (vi) realization of an immediate accretion in the net tangible book value of their investment in the Partnership of $37.62 per Unit (for an aggregate accretion of $45.6 million); (vii) receipt by Robert W. Boykin of options to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 Common Shares under the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan; and (viii) beneficial ownership of the Initial Lessee, which will be entitled to all profits and cash flow from the Initial Hotels after payment of rent under the Percentage Leases and other operating expenses. See "The Formation" for further discussion of the benefits to Boykin Group Affiliates from the Formation Transactions. REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT RISKS GENERAL. The Company's investments will be subject to varying degrees of risk generally incident to the ownership of real estate. These risks include, among others, changes in national, regional and local economic conditions, local real estate market conditions, changes in interest rates and in the availability, costs and terms of financing, the impact of present or future environmental legislation and compliance with environmental laws, the ongoing need for capital improvements, changes in real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, adverse changes in governmental laws and rules, the potential for uninsured or underinsured losses, adverse changes in zoning laws, and other factors beyond the control of the Company. VALUE AND ILLIQUIDITY OF REAL ESTATE. Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. The Company's ability to vary its portfolio of hotels in response to changes in economic and other conditions will therefore be limited. In addition, certain significant expenditures associated with each equity investment (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs) are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the investment. After completion of the Offering and the application of the proceeds therefrom as set forth under "Use of Proceeds," certain of the Initial Hotels may be mortgaged to secure the Credit Facility. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Financing Strategy." UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED LOSSES. The Percentage Leases require the Initial Lessee to maintain comprehensive insurance on each of the Initial Hotels, including loss of business income, liability, and employee dishonesty coverage. The Company is required to maintain building casualty insurance on each Initial Hotel. Management believes the Initial Hotels' coverage is of the type and amount, including coverage limits and deductibility provisions, customarily carried on similar properties. However, there are certain types of losses, generally of a catastrophic nature, such as earthquakes and floods, that may be uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, the Company could lose its investment in the affected Initial Hotel as well as the anticipated future revenues from that hotel, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to that hotel. ACQUISITION RISKS. The Company intends to pursue acquisition of future hotels selectively. In undertaking these acquisitions, the Company will incur certain risks, including the expenditure of funds on, and the devotion of management's time to, transactions that may not come to fruition. Additional risks inherent in acquisitions include risks that the properties will not achieve anticipated occupancy levels or sustain anticipated room rate levels, and that judgments with respect to the cost of improvements to bring acquired properties to the Company's standards will prove inaccurate. In addition, the Company anticipates that new acquisitions will be financed under the Credit Facility or other forms of interim financing, resulting in the risk that permanent financing may not be available or may be available only on disadvantageous terms. If permanent financing is not available on acceptable terms, the Company may be forced to dispose of the affected property or other property on disadvantageous terms. DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT RISKS. The Company may develop and redevelop hotels when it believes that doing so is consistent with its business strategies. While the Company's policies with respect to these activities are intended to limit some of the risks associated with those activities, new and continued project development will be subject to a number of risks, including that financing may not be available on favorable terms, that construction costs of a property may exceed original estimates, that occupancy rates and ADR may not stabilize at anticipated levels, that financing may not be available on completion of construction, and that construction may not be completed on schedule. If the Company undertakes but elects not to proceed with a development or redevelopment opportunity, the costs associated therewith will ordinarily 20 25 be charged against income for the current period. The Company continually attempts to improve its ability to evaluate projects in advance and to minimize the costs incurred before it acquires the properties that are the subject of contemplated development or redevelopment projects. These activities are also subject to risks relating to the inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, the necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations. PROPERTY TAX CHANGES. Under the Percentage Leases, the Company will be responsible for the payment of real and personal property taxes and assessments. These taxes and assessments may increase or decrease as property tax rates change and as the properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. If property taxes increase or assessments are levied, the Company's ability to make distributions to its shareholders could be adversely affected. COSTS OF COMPLIANCE WITH CERTAIN LAWS. The Initial Hotels must comply with Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA") to the extent that they are "public accommodations" or "commercial facilities" as defined in the ADA. Noncompliance with the ADA could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. The Company believes, based on an internal review, that the Initial Hotels comply in all material respects with the ADA and similar applicable state laws. If changes in these laws involve substantial expenditures or must be made on an accelerated basis, the Company's ability to make distributions to shareholders could be adversely affected. RISKS INVOLVED IN INVESTMENTS THROUGH JOINT VENTURES AND OTHER ENTITIES. On consummation of the Offering, all of the Company's hotels will be owned solely by the Partnership. However, the Company may in the future invest as a co-venturer in a hotel property if it will have control of the operation of the joint venture assets. Any such investment may involve risks such as the possibility that the co-venturer may become bankrupt or have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with the business interests or goals of the Company. The Company may also invest in securities of other entities engaged in the ownership of hotels. Investments of this type may not entitle the Company to control the ownership and leasing of the underlying hotels or to control distributions therefrom, which may adversely affect the Company's ability to make distributions to its shareholders. Furthermore, the Company may be prevented from controlling an issuer of securities by the percentage limitations on the ownership of securities and the gross income tests for REIT qualification. See "Policies and Objectives with Respect to Certain Activities -- Investment Policies" and "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Taxation of the Company as a REIT." REAL ESTATE FINANCING RISKS. The Company expects to finance future acquisitions in part through the Credit Facility or other new debt financing. In doing so the Company will be subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that the Company's cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, the risk that the Company will not be able to refinance that indebtedness or that the terms of any such refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of the existing indebtedness, and the risk that necessary capital expenditures for such purposes as renovations and other improvements cannot be financed on favorable terms, if at all. If the Company were unable to secure refinancing of any such indebtedness on acceptable terms, the Company might be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms, which could result in losses to the Company and could adversely affect the cash flow of the Company available for distribution. If the Company incurs variable rate mortgage indebtedness, an increase in interest rates could have an adverse effect on the Company's net income and Distributable Cash Flow. In addition, if a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and the Company is unable to make mortgage payments, the property could be foreclosed upon by, or otherwise transferred to, the mortgagee with a consequent loss of income and asset value to the Company. The Credit Facility is expected to be secured by mortgages on several of the Initial Hotels. In addition, the Company's need to distribute 95% of its REIT taxable income in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT will limit its ability to rely on cash flow from operations to finance new development or acquisitions. As a result, if permanent debt or equity financing is not available on acceptable terms to refinance new development or acquisitions undertaken without permanent financing, further development activities or acquisitions may not be feasible. 21 26 THE COMPANY'S LACK OF OPERATING HISTORY The Company is a newly formed corporation. Accordingly, the Company does not have any operating history or experience in operating in accordance with the requirements for maintaining its qualification as a REIT. POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE VALUE OF THE COMMON SHARES OF FLUCTUATIONS IN INTEREST RATES OR EQUITY MARKETS The market price of equity securities of a publicly traded REIT is determined in part by the attractiveness of the yield from distributions on those securities in relation to prevailing interest rates. Accordingly, an increase in interest rates generally may lead purchasers of the Common Shares to demand a higher annual yield, which could adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. Moreover, the market value of the Common Shares could be substantially and adversely affected by changes in general securities market conditions or fluctuations in the markets for equity securities. POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in the property. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. Furthermore, a person that arranges for the disposal of a hazardous substance at another property or transports a hazardous substance for disposal or treatment at another property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at that property, regardless whether that person owns or operates that property. The costs of any such remediation or removal may be substantial, and the presence of any such substance, or the failure promptly to remediate any such substance, may adversely affect the property owner's ability to sell or lease the property or to borrow using it as collateral. Other federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations require abatement or removal of certain asbestos-containing materials in connection with demolition or certain renovations or remodeling, impose certain worker protection and notification requirements, and govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. Other federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations and the common law impose on owners and operators certain requirements regarding conditions and activities that may affect human health or the environment. These conditions and activities include, for example, the presence of lead in drinking water, the presence of lead-containing paint in occupied structures, and the ownership or operation of underground storage tanks. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could result in difficulty in the lease or sale of any affected property or the imposition of monetary penalties, in addition to the costs required to achieve compliance and potential liability to third parties. The Company, the Partnership or the Initial Lessee, as the case may be, may be potentially liable for such costs or claims in connection with the ownership and operation of the Initial Hotels. Phase I environmental site assessments or assessment updates have been completed within the last 24 months on each Initial Hotel, and a Phase II assessment was conducted for one hotel in April 1996. Additional sampling was conducted at one Initial Hotel because its Phase I assessment identified the presence of contaminants at an adjacent gasoline station. None of the Phase I or Phase II assessments revealed any environmental contamination or condition that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, assets or results of operations, nor is the Company aware of any such contamination or condition. Nonetheless, it is possible that material environmental contamination or conditions exist of which the Company is unaware. No assurance can be given that (i) the assessments referred to above revealed all potential environmental liabilities, (ii) future or amended laws, ordinances or regulations, or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies of existing environmental requirements, will not impose any material environmental liability or (iii) the environmental condition of the Initial Hotels has not been and will not be affected by changes in the condition of properties in the vicinity of the Initial Hotels or by the acts of third parties unrelated to the Company or the Partnership. See "Business and Properties -- Environmental Matters." 22 27 TAX RISKS FAILURE TO QUALIFY AS A REIT. The Company intends to operate as a REIT under the Code, commencing with its initial taxable year ending December 31, 1996. The Company has not requested, and does not expect to request, a ruling from the IRS regarding its status as a REIT. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of technical and complex provisions of the Code for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within the Company's control may affect its ability to qualify as a REIT, including default by a lessee under, and a termination of, an operating lease. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the rules applicable to the Company with respect to its qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. The Company will receive an opinion of Baker & Hostetler that, based on the assumption that the Percentage Leases, the Partnership Agreement, the Company's organizational documents, and all other documents to which the Company is a party will be complied with by all parties thereto, and based upon certain representations of the Company, the Company will qualify as a REIT under the Code. Investors should be aware, however, that opinions of counsel are not binding on the IRS or the courts. Both the opinion and the continued qualification of the Company as a REIT will depend on the Company's continuing ability to meet various requirements concerning, among other things, the ownership of its outstanding shares, the nature of its assets, the sources of its income, and the amount of its distributions to shareholders. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Taxation of the Company as a REIT." If the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to shareholders in computing its taxable income and would be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. Unless entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, the Company also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which REIT qualification was lost. As a result, the cash available for distribution to the shareholders could be reduced or eliminated for each of the years involved. Although the Company currently intends to operate in a manner designed to qualify it as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause the Board of Directors, with the consent of a majority of the shareholders, to revoke the REIT election. REIT MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company generally will be required each year to distribute to its shareholders at least 95% of its net taxable income (excluding any net capital gain). Further, the Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which certain distributions paid by it with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of its ordinary income plus 95% of its capital gain net income for that year plus amounts not distributed in prior years. The Company intends to make distributions to its shareholders to comply with the 95% distribution requirement and to avoid the nondeductible excise tax. The Company's income will consist primarily of its share of the income of the Partnership. The Company's cash available for distribution will consist primarily of cash distributions from the Partnership. Differences in timing between taxable income and receipt of cash available for distribution and the seasonality of the hospitality industry could require the Company, through the Partnership, to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the 95% distribution requirement and to avoid the nondeductible excise tax. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required from time to time to accrue certain income items for tax purposes prior to their receipt in cash (for example, rent earned but not yet received). These differences in timing between the accrual of certain income items for tax purposes and the receipt thereof could cause the Company to have taxable income without sufficient cash to make the annual distributions required of a REIT under the Code. In such cases, the Company may be compelled to borrow funds or liquidate investments on terms that are disadvantageous to the Company in order to meet the distribution requirements. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations." Distributions by the Partnership will be determined by the Company's Board of Directors and will be dependent on a number of factors, including the amount of cash in the Partnership available for distribution, 23 28 the Partnership's financial condition, any decision by the Board of Directors to reinvest funds rather than distributing such funds, the Partnership's capital expenditures, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and any other factor the Board of Directors believes is relevant. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT - -- Annual Distribution Requirements." FAILURE OF THE PARTNERSHIP TO BE CLASSIFIED AS A PARTNERSHIP FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES: IMPACT ON REIT STATUS. The Company will receive an opinion from Baker & Hostetler stating that the Partnership will be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were to challenge successfully the tax status of the Partnership as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the Partnership would be taxable as a corporation. In that event, because the value of the Company's ownership interest in the Partnership (i) constitutes more than 10% of the Partnership's voting securities and (ii) exceeds 5% of the Company's assets, the Company would cease to qualify as a REIT. Further, the imposition of a corporate-level tax on the Partnership would substantially reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to the Company and its shareholders. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Tax Aspects of the Company's Investments in the Partnership." TAX ON NET INCOME FROM FORECLOSURE PROPERTY. The Company will be subject to a tax at the highest rate applicable to corporations (currently 35%) on any "net income from foreclosure property." "Foreclosure property" is property acquired by the Company as a result of a foreclosure proceeding or by otherwise reducing such property to ownership by agreement or process of law. "Net income from foreclosure property" is the gross income derived during the taxable year from foreclosure property, less applicable deductions, but only to the extent such income does not qualify under the 75% income test and 95% income test. As a result of the rules with respect to foreclosure property, if the Initial Lessee defaults on its obligations under a Percentage Lease for an Initial Hotel, the Company terminates the Percentage Lease, and the Company is unable to find a replacement lessee for such Initial Hotel within 90 days of such foreclosure, gross income from hotel operations conducted by the Company from such Initial Hotel would cease to qualify for the 75% and 95% gross income tests and, thus, the Company would fail to qualify as a REIT; however, although it is unclear under the Code, if the hotel operations were conducted by an independent contractor, it may be possible for the Initial Hotel to be foreclosure property for two years after such foreclosure (which period could be extended an additional four years) without the disqualifying the Company as a REIT. ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT OF OWNERSHIP LIMIT Generally prohibiting any shareholder from owning more than 9.0% of the Common Shares may (i) discourage a change in control of the Company, (ii) deter tender offers for the Common Shares, which may otherwise be attractive to the Company's shareholders, or (iii) limit the opportunity for shareholders to receive a premium for their Common Shares that may otherwise exist if an investor attempted to assemble a block of Common Shares in excess of 9.0% of the outstanding Common Shares or to effect a change in control of the Company. The ownership limitation exists to enable the Company to meet the REIT qualification requirement that not more than 50% in value of its outstanding shares be owned by five or fewer individuals, while providing the Company's Board of Directors the flexibility to allow an individual to own more than 10% of the Company's outstanding shares so long as that ownership will not violate other REIT qualification requirements. Certain tender offers and invitations for tenders for more than 10% of the Common Shares of the Company are also subject to certain advance filing and notification requirements under Section 1707.041 of the Ohio Revised Code. NO LIMITATION ON DEBT; ABILITY TO ISSUE PREFERRED SHARES The Company has entered into an agreement relating to the Credit Facility with a lending syndicate led by Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. and may incur other indebtedness in the future. The Company currently has a policy of maintaining a ratio of debt-to-total market capitalization (i.e., total third-party debt of the Company as a percentage of the market value of issued and outstanding Common Shares, including Common Shares issuable on exchange of outstanding Units, plus total debt, measured at the time the debt is incurred) of not more than 45%. The Company's organizational documents, however, do not contain any limitation on 24 29 the amount or percentage of indebtedness the Company may incur, and the Board of Directors could alter or eliminate the Company's current borrowing policy. If this policy were changed or eliminated, the Company could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service, which could adversely affect the Company's funds from operations and its ability to make expected distributions to its shareholders, and in an increased risk of default on the Company's obligations. The more leveraged a company is, the more likely it is that a decrease in cash flow would impair its ability to make debt service payments in the normal course of business. The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors to issue up to 10,000,000 preferred shares and to establish certain preferences and rights of any such shares issued. See "Description of Capital Stock -- Preferred Shares." While the Company has no current intention to issue any preferred shares, the issuance of any such shares with preferential dividend rights could diminish the cash available for distribution to the holders of Common Shares. In addition, the issuance of such shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company even if a change in control were in the shareholders' interest. The Initial Hotels mortgage indebtedness that is being prepaid in connection with the Offering includes an aggregate of approximately $67.1 million in principal and interest payable under loans from Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. to the Contributed Partnerships that own four of the Initial Hotels. See "Use of Proceeds." DILUTION Purchasers of the Common Shares will experience immediate and substantial dilution from the initial public offering price in the net tangible book value per share of the Common Shares. See "Dilution." Any exercise of options to purchase Common Shares at a price below the market price of the Common Shares at the time of exercise will also be dilutive. ABSENCE OF PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET FOR COMMON SHARES Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Company's Common Shares. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be sustained following the Offering or that Common Shares may be resold at or above the initial public offering price. The initial public offering price will be determined through negotiations between the Company and the representatives of the Underwriters (the "Representatives") and may not be indicative of the market price of the Common Shares after the Offering. See "Underwriting." LIMITATIONS ON OWNERSHIP OF COMMON SHARES In order for the Company to maintain its qualification as a REIT, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding Shares of the Company may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals. Accordingly, the Company's Articles of Incorporation prohibit ownership of more than 9.0% of the Common Shares by any single shareholder following completion of the Offering, with certain exceptions. The Board of Directors may waive this restriction if evidence satisfactory to it and to the Company's tax counsel is presented showing that ownership in excess of this limit will not jeopardize the Company's status as a REIT. See "Capital Stock of the Company -- Restrictions on Transfer." Accordingly, a holder of Common Shares may be prohibited from increasing his holdings of Common Shares. RISK OF HIGH DISTRIBUTION PAYOUT PERCENTAGE The Company's estimated annual distribution rate to shareholders is 97% of the Company's estimated Cash Available for Distribution for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996. See "Distribution Policy." Should actual Cash Available for Distribution be less than estimated Cash Available for Distribution, the Company may not be able to achieve and maintain its proposed initial distribution rate. BOARD'S ABILITY TO CHANGE POLICIES The principal policies of the Company, including its policies with respect to acquisitions, financing, growth, operations, debt capitalization and distributions, will be determined by its Board of Directors. The 25 30 Board of Directors may amend or revise these and other policies from time to time without a vote of the shareholders of the Company. See "Policies and Objectives with Respect to Certain Activities." EFFECT ON MARKET PRICE OF SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales, or the availability of Common Shares for future sale, by the Company or by its executive officers will have on the market price of the Common Shares prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of Common Shares (including shares issued on the exercise of options), or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Common Shares. The Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Associates have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Shares for a period of three years after the date of this Prospectus. See "Shares Available for Future Sale" and "Underwriting." FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Prospectus contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements.

THE COMPANY GENERAL The Company was formed to continue and expand the hotel ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and repositioning activities of the Boykin Group and will operate as a self-administered equity REIT. The Boykin 26 31 Group was founded in 1959, and was one of the first franchisees of Marriott Hotels and an early franchisee of Howard Johnson's Hotels. Since its founding, the Boykin Group has developed 13 full-service hotels containing a total of 3,085 rooms and has owned or managed 36 properties containing a total of 6,943 rooms. Upon completion of the Offering and the Formation Transactions, the Company will own nine hotels with a total of 2,408 guest rooms. The Company's primary business strategies are to achieve revenue growth in the Initial Hotels, acquire and lease additional hotel and resort properties in the upscale and moderate markets on an accretive basis, strategically renovate and upgrade properties to maximize performance, and selectively expand and develop additional hotel properties. Quality of Initial Hotel Portfolio The Initial Hotels are operated under franchise license agreements with premiere nationally-recognized hotel chains, including Marriott(R), Radisson(R), Holiday Inn(R), Quality Suites(R), and Hampton Inns(R). Serving both business and leisure travelers, the Initial Hotels are geographically diversified and located in Berkeley, California; Buffalo, New York; Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Ft. Myers and Melbourne, Florida. The Initial Hotels include eight full-service hotels and one limited-service hotel, all of which compete in the upscale to moderate price segment of the hospitality market. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, the Initial Hotels had an average occupancy rate of 76.2%, an ADR of $87.62 and a REVPAR of $66.74. The Boykin Group developed and has owned and managed seven of the Initial Hotels since their opening. Long-standing Management Team The Company will capitalize on the substantial hotel operating, development, acquisition and transactional experience of its management and the Boykin Group. Robert W. Boykin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, has over 27 years of experience in the hotel industry, all with the Boykin Group. Raymond P. Heitland, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, has 26 years of industry experience and tenure with the Boykin Group. Mark L. Bishop, the Company's Senior Vice President -- Acquisitions and Development, has 18 years of industry experience. During the past 10 years, the Company's officers have directly overseen the acquisition, disposition, recapitalization, development and repositioning of approximately $750 million of hotel assets throughout the United States. Upon completion of the Offering, Company management and their affiliates will own approximately 12.7% of the outstanding equity of the Company. All future hotel acquisition, development and ownership activities of the Boykin Group will be conducted through the Company. Focus on Full-service Hotels The Company intends to achieve a significant part of its growth through the acquisition, redevelopment and repositioning of additional full-service hotels. The Company believes that there are full-service hotel properties that can be acquired at a discount to replacement cost, and that many of these properties are located in areas of increasing demand. The Company further believes that the full-service segment of the market, in particular, has potential for improved performance as business and leisure travel continues to increase and demand rises at a faster rate than supply. The Company expects no significant new supply of full-service hotels over the next several years because current costs do not justify new hotel construction. While the Company intends to maintain its focus on full-service hotels, it may also acquire upscale limited-service hotels in selected cases when doing so will further its strategic objectives. For example, when the Boykin Group acquired a Holiday Inn in February 1996, it also acquired a Hampton Inn located in close proximity to enable it to benefit from cross-over marketing and training and the operating efficiencies achievable through having multiple hotels in one geographic area. Cash Flow Growth The Company believes that it will have long-term financial stability as a result of its ownership of the Initial Hotels and the expected growth of its hotel portfolio. 27 32 The Company will focus on maximizing cash flow from both the Initial Hotels and acquired hotels through the implementation of the active asset management strategies of the Boykin Group. The Company has demonstrated the ability to increase cash flow from the hotels which it owns. Over the three year and five year periods ended December 31, 1995, the aggregate revenues of the Initial Hotels increased at a compound annual rate of 4.4% and 3.6% per year, respectively, and EBITDA from the Initial Hotels increased at a compound annual rate of 13.4% and 9.8% per year, respectively. EBITDA should not be considered as a basis for computing distributions, as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to other measurements under generally accepted accounting principles such as net income, or cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. The combined operating results of the Initial Hotels for the three and five year periods ended December 31, 1995 improved from net losses of $4,651 in 1991 and $2,470 in 1993 to combined net income of $972 in 1995. For the three year period ended December 31, 1995, cash flows from operating activities of the Initial Hotels increased from $4,200 to $8,113, cash used for investing activities increased from $2,801 to $4,555, and cash used for financing activities increased from $900 to $4,699. The Company believes that EBITDA is an important measure of its historical operating results, and uses this measure to evaluate hotel performance. Interest expense and depreciation expense are material components of both net income and cash flows from operating activities, but are not included in the calculation of EBITDA. As the Initial Lessee will incur neither interest expense nor depreciation expense, EBITDA is presented to further assist investors in analyzing the historical performance of the Initial Hotels and in evaluating the Initial Lessee's ability to make Percentage Lease payments. These charges varied significantly in the periods discussed and will also change materially after completion of the Formation Transactions. Interest expense varied because of significant changes in borrowing levels. Upon completion of the Formation Transactions, interest expense and charges relating to early extinguishment of debt, along with cash flows historically used for debt service, will be eliminated for the Initial Lessee. Furthermore, as a result of the application of purchase accounting rules, depreciation expense increased significantly over the periods discussed, and will further increase after the Formation Transactions. Historical Performance The current and the historical performance of the Initial Hotels has well exceeded the industry averages. During the five year period ended December 31, 1995, the Initial Hotels generated REVPAR that exceeded the REVPAR of their local competing hotels (in each market, six to eight competitors as currently defined by Boykin Management for performance evaluation purposes and compared over that period) by 16% on average and exceeded the U.S. average REVPAR for upscale/moderate full-service hotels by 26%. In 1991, a year generally considered weak in the hotel industry, REVPAR of the Initial Hotels exceeded the REVPAR of their local competing hotels by 19% and exceeded the U.S. average REVPAR for upscale/moderate full-service hotels by 29%. The following table compares average occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the Initial Hotels with that for their local competition, all upscale/moderate U.S. hotels and all U.S. hotels for the periods indicated.

28 33 (2) Source: Smith Travel Research (reports dated August 1 and 5, 1996). Smith Travel Research is not associated in any way with the Company or any of its Affiliates and has not provided any form of assistance in connection with the Offering. Local Competition includes Initial Hotels and six to eight competitors in each market, as currently defined by Boykin Management for performance evaluation purposes and consistently used for the periods shown. Management believes that, while the lodging industry as a whole is benefiting from an improved supply/demand dynamic, the most significant advances in revenue growth and profitability will arise from skillful management of hotel properties. An integral element of this management is the continuous evaluation of each hotel's position in its market and the implementation, as necessary, of changes in franchise, theme and customer focus to maximize the continuing returns from the hotel. The Company attributes the excellent performance of the Initial Hotels to the successful implementation of this asset management strategy. Access to Capital The Company has obtained a $75 million Credit Facility for acquiring hotels without financing contingencies and for certain other purposes, including capital expenditures and working capital, as necessary, and expects to draw approximately $5 million from the Credit Facility in conjunction with the Offering. As a public company, the Company expects to have access to a wide variety of financing sources to fund acquisitions, such as the ability to issue public and private debt, equity and hybrid securities, and the ability to utilize Units as consideration when cash is not appropriate for tax or other reasons. While its organizational documents contain no limitation on the amount of debt it may incur, the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, intends to maintain a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio (measured at the time debt is incurred) of not more than 45%. The Company may from time to time re-evaluate its debt capitalization policy in light of economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market values of its properties, acquisition, development and expansion opportunities and other factors. BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES The Company's primary business objectives are to maximize current returns to shareholders through increases in cash flow available for distribution and to increase long-term total returns to shareholders through appreciation in value of the Common Shares. The Company will seek to achieve these objectives through participation in increased revenues from the Initial Hotels pursuant to the Percentage Leases and by selective acquisition, ownership, redevelopment, repositioning and expansion of additional hotel properties. The Company will seek to continue to invest in properties where the Company's established industry and marketing expertise enable it to improve the acquired hotels' performance. Internal Growth Strategy The Company believes that, based on historical operating results and the strength of the Company's management team, portfolio and markets, the Initial Hotels should provide the Company with the opportunity for cash flow growth through the Percentage Leases. The Company believes that the revenue and cash flow of the Initial Hotels will be maximized by intensive management and marketing. The Company intends to derive increased cash flow through the application of the Initial Lessee's operating strategies, which include the active management and balancing of room rates with forecasted room demand in order to maximize total hotel revenues (a system known as "yield management"). The Company believes that the Initial Lessee's continued commitment to customer service and the experience of its management team should position the Company to capitalize on the expected continued strength in the economy and improvement in the U.S. hotel market. The Company's objectives include enhancing its competitive market position through the continuation of a regular program of renovation and capital improvement. An example of the active yield management employed by the Boykin Group is its strategies during 1995 at the Cleveland Airport Marriott. The Boykin Group anticipated increased demand in the business transient sector and scaled back lower-rated contract rooms in order to maximize revenue. The result was an increase in room revenues in excess of $800,000 for calendar year 1995 over 1994, and a corresponding increase in REVPAR for the same period of 10.3%. See "Prospectus Summary -- The Initial Hotels" for information regarding the operating performance of the Initial Hotels. 29 34 Acquisition Strategy The Company believes that attractive opportunities exist to acquire full-service hotels serving the upscale and moderate market segments of the lodging industry. The Company intends to concentrate its investment activities on hotel properties that are in one or more of the following categories: Product Type -- Full-service commercial hotels, airport hotels, major tourist hotels and destination resorts in major markets and business centers. Market Repositioning Opportunities -- Undervalued hotels whose occupancy, daily rates and overall revenues can be significantly enhanced through new brand affiliations, implementation of new marketing strategies and effective yield management. Redevelopment and Renovation Opportunities -- Hotels with sound operational fundamentals that, because of a lack of capital, require physical renovation or redevelopment to achieve their full performance potential. Portfolio Acquisitions -- Portfolios of hotels which result in geographic economies of scale or which may be leased back to proven hotel operators as additional lessees, and that may benefit from the Company's repositioning and redevelopment experience and access to capital. As a result of the Company's management's successful transactional activities, the Company believes it possesses a competitive advantage in market knowledge, technical expertise and industry relationships that will enable it to continue to successfully implement its acquisition strategy on a national scale. Further, the Company believes it will benefit from its continuing relationship with the Initial Lessee and from developing relationships with additional lessees who have demonstrated ability to manage hotel properties. The Company's philosophy is to identify and actively seek hotel properties that can be associated with the brands that will lead the hospitality industry in REVPAR, such as Marriott(R), Radisson(R), Hilton(R), Hyatt(R), Westin(R), Omni(R), Doubletree(R), Sheraton(R), Holiday Inn(R) and Quality Suites(R). The Company believes that it can maximize its market share and revenues by taking advantage of its orientation toward sales and marketing to identify the most effective branding and to leverage its brands with effective direct sales strategies. The Company expects to continue to affiliate with a number of different franchise companies in order to maximize the performance of its hotels by providing greater access to a broad base of national marketing and reservation systems and to mitigate the risks of franchise loss and franchise overlap. The Company will seek to maintain a geographically diversified hotel portfolio, and may also cluster hotels within certain primary markets in order to take advantage of operational and managerial economies of scale. The Company believes it has the capacity to acquire additional hotels without significantly increasing management and overhead expenses. The Boykin Group's recent purchase of the Lake Norman Holiday Inn and Lake Norman Hampton Inn exemplifies the strategies described above. The Company believes that those hotels' present franchise affiliations will enable the Company to maximize REVPAR in the local market. The hotels' purchase price represented a significant discount to replacement costs, and the hotels' historical earnings represented an attractive yield on the purchase price. The Company believes that the Initial Lessee can increase the ADR and REVPAR of both hotels, and the Boykin Group has been implementing its yield management systems since the acquisition to achieve these results. REVPAR for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased over REVPAR for the same period in 1995 by 21% for the Lake Norman Hampton Inn and by 13% for the Lake Norman Holiday Inn, with a resulting increase in pro forma Percentage Lease revenues. The Boykin Group also took over the previously out-sourced food and beverage operations at the Lake Norman Holiday Inn, and is currently in the process of repositioning the food and beverage operations at the hotel in order to generate more business from hotel guests and to increase patronage of the restaurant and catering facilities by the local residents. The Boykin Group also caused the Lake Norman hotels to implement a combined purchasing program, direct overflow business to each other and begin cross-training and sharing employees. The Company believes the economies gained from the clustering of the Lake Norman acquisitions, combined with the active yield management strategies and product repositioning strategies employed by the Boykin Group at these hotels, has resulted in a significantly more attractive yield than that calculated based on their trailing operating performance at the time of the acquisitions. 30 35 There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire properties that meet its investment criteria or that have operations that can be successfully integrated with the operation of the Initial Hotels. Renovation Strategy The Company believes that a regular program of capital improvements at the Initial Hotels, including replacement and refurbishment of FF&E, will maintain and enhance their competitiveness and maximize revenue growth under the Percentage Leases. During the fiscal years 1991 through 1995, approximately $18 million was spent on renovations and capital improvements at the Initial Hotels, including approximately $1.1 million for the restoration of the Melbourne Quality Suites hotel following damage from Hurricane Erin in August 1995. This represents an average of approximately $1,400 per room per year (excluding the amount spent on the Melbourne property restoration, which was funded entirely from insurance proceeds). The Company intends to make available $3.5 million of the Credit Facility to fund the Capital Expenditures Fund, as needed. The Percentage Leases require the Company to contribute to the Capital Expenditures Fund additional aggregate minimum reserves of 4.0% of total revenue of the Initial Hotels. For the 12-month period ended June 30, 1996, this reserve would have represented approximately 6.1% of room revenue and an average of $1,400 per room. The Company intends to use the Capital Expenditures Fund for the replacement and refurbishment of FF&E and other capital expenditures (approximately $250,000 of which is required by franchisors) to maintain and enhance the competitive position of the Initial Hotels, although it may make other uses of amounts in the fund that it considers appropriate from time to time. The Company believes that the fund will be adequate to meet its continuing capital expenditure and FF&E needs for the Initial Hotels in light of their age and condition. The Boykin Group's experience in developing and renovating its properties will assist the Company in maintaining its properties' competitive edge in their respective markets. The following table sets forth information about the historical capital expenditures of the Initial Hotels for the five fiscal years ended December 31, 1995:
5 YEAR TOTAL CAPITAL 5 YEAR EXPENDITURES AVERAGE PER INITIAL HOTEL ROOMS (000'S) ROOM(1) - ------------------------------------------------- ----- ------------ ----------- Berkeley Marina Marriott......................... 373 $ 3,520 $ 1,900 Buffalo Marriott................................. 356 3,208 1,800 Cleveland Airport Marriott....................... 375 2,606 1,400 Cleveland Marriott East.......................... 403 2,611 1,300 Columbus North Marriott.......................... 300 2,961 2,000 Lake Norman Hampton Inn.......................... 117 329 600 Lake Norman Holiday Inn.......................... 119 286 500 Melbourne Quality Suites......................... 208 1,869 1,800(2) Radisson Inn Sanibel Gateway..................... 157 514 700 ----- -------- ------- Total/Average.................................... 2,408 $ 17,904 $ 1,500(2) - --------------- (1) Rounded to the nearest $100 (2) Includes the amount spent on the Melbourne property restoration described in the paragraph preceding the table.
The Company expects to spend approximately $4.0 million on capital improvements at the Initial Hotels during the first twelve months after the Offering as part of its ongoing renovation and capital expenditures program. These expenditures will be funded from funds contributed to the Capital Expenditures Fund from the Initial Hotels' revenues during that period and from draws on the Credit Facility, as needed. Some of the major ongoing capital expenditure items included in the capital expenditures program over the next 12 months are: renovation and refurbishment of lobby and public spaces, upgrading and redecorating the guest rooms including expanding the Marriott "room that works" concept and incorporating other amenities designed to meet the needs of today's business travelers, and repositioning of several hotel restaurants and lounges to increase both guest and local patronage. 31 36 Development Strategy The Company may develop additional full-service or upscale limited-service hotels on land that the Company acquires in its current geographic markets or on land contiguous to the Initial Hotels. Full-service hotels may include hotels affiliated with Marriott, Radisson, Hilton, Hyatt, Westin, Omni, Doubletree, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and Quality Suites. Limited-service hotels may include Marriott Courtyard Hotels, Fairfield Inns, Residence Inns, Homewood Suites and Hampton Inns. The Company believes that selective development of hotels in its existing geographic markets would enable it to take advantage of operating efficiencies to generate attractive returns on investment. Financing Strategy On completion of the Offering, the Company expects to have approximately $5 million of outstanding debt. While its organizational documents contain no limitation on the amount of debt it may incur, the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, intends to maintain a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio (measured at the time debt is incurred) of not more than 45%. The Company may from time to time re-evaluate its debt capitalization policy in light of economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market values of its properties, acquisition, development and expansion opportunities, and other factors. The Company has obtained the Credit Facility from a lending syndicate led by Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. Upon the closing of the Credit Facility, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association will be the administrative agent of the Credit Facility. The Company intends to use this facility to provide interim financing for property acquisitions and capital improvements in anticipation of long-term financing and to fund working capital and capital expenditure requirements, as necessary. The Credit Facility will be secured by first mortgages on several of the Initial Hotels. Other On completion of the Offering, assuming the conversion of Intercompany Convertible Note and further assuming the Units have not been exchanged the Company will own approximately 85.7% of the equity interests in the Partnership and be its general partner, and the executive officers of the Company will own in the aggregate approximately 12.7% of the equity interests in the Company, directly or through ownership of Units. The Company's executive offices are located at Terminal Tower, Suite 1500, 50 Public Square, Cleveland, Ohio 44113, and its telephone number is (216) 241-6375. LESSEES THE INITIAL LESSEE In order to qualify as a REIT, the Company will not operate its hotels, but will lease its properties to established hotel operators pursuant to leases which will provide the Company with the greater of a base rental income or a percentage of revenues of operations. In connection with the Formation Transactions, Robert and John Boykin will form and indirectly own the Initial Lessee. The Initial Lessee will acquire and continue the 37-year hotel operation and management business of the Boykin Group and will operate the Initial Hotels under the Percentage Leases. The operations of the Boykin Group are fully integrated, with capabilities in all phases of development and management of hotel properties. As of June 30, 1996, the Boykin Group had approximately 2,400 employees and owned or managed 21 properties containing 4,354 rooms located throughout the United States. Because neither the Company nor the Initial Lessee will have to pay a separate hotel management company to manage the Initial Hotels, the Company believes it will obtain a higher rent than such added management arrangements would permit, thus maximizing the Company's Percentage Lease revenues. The Company believes that the Boykin Group's ability to achieve consistently above-average market penetration during various economic cycles positions the Company, through the Initial Lessee, to maximize its returns on the Initial Hotels.

The Initial Lessee's core capabilities will be based on continued implementation of the Boykin Group's (i) commitment to superior customer service and satisfaction; (ii) sophisticated sales and marketing systems, including customer lead-generating and management incentive systems; (iii) effective personnel recruitment, 32 37 selection, orientation, training and retention programs; (iv) comprehensive property operations and maintenance capabilities, including design, renovation management, energy conservation, purchasing and preventive maintenance; and (v) strong auditing, cash-handling, recordkeeping and information management systems and controls. While the Initial Lessee will operate and manage hotels only under the Percentage Leases, its subsidiaries will continue hotel management activities for owners other than the Company and the award-winning hotel interior design business and the hotel and restaurant food, beverage, supply and equipment purchasing business currently operated by the Boykin Group. The Company expects that these operations will be continued in part with a view to introducing the Company to acquisition opportunities. In addition, the income generated by the Initial Lessee and its subsidiaries will strengthen the Initial Lessee's ability to perform under the Percentage Leases. The Initial Lessee intends to develop incentive compensation plans for its hotel-level and corporate-level senior executives which tie such compensation in part to the performance of the Company and in part to the performance of the Initial Hotels. Such plans may include awards of Company shares, options and other similar incentives. The Company and the Initial Lessee have agreed on several measures to align the interests of the Initial Lessee and its owners with the interests of the Company's shareholders and to minimize conflicts of interest between them: - The Initial Lessee's owners and certain other Boykin Group Affiliates will own approximately 12.6% of the Company following completion of the Offering in the form of Units exchangeable, at the Company's election, for Common Shares, and have agreed to retain these interests for at least three years following completion of the Offering; - Robert W. Boykin will resign from his positions with Boykin Management in connection with the Formation Transactions and will not hold office in the Initial Lessee, and neither John E. Boykin nor any other officer of the Initial Lessee will hold office in the Company; - Any distributions from the Initial Lessee (other than distributions to cover income taxes) during the first ten years after the Offering that are distributed to the Initial Lessee's owners, and any net cash proceeds of any sale of the Initial Lessee within ten years after the Offering, will be used to purchase Units or Common Shares (subject to applicable ownership limitations) that must be held for at least two years from the purchase date; - The Initial Lessee's and its subsidiaries' consolidated net worth on completion of the Formation Transactions will be approximately $3 million, and half of the Initial Lessee's and its subsidiaries' consolidated earnings (after distributions to cover income taxes) during the first ten years after the Offering will be retained in the Initial Lessee and its subsidiaries until their consolidated net worth reaches 25% of the aggregate annual rent payments under the Percentage Leases (and will be retained thereafter during that period to maintain that level); - Determinations to be made on behalf of the Company in connection with any conflict of interest involving any Boykin Group Affiliate will be made by the Company's independent directors; - Each Boykin Group Affiliate will conduct all future hotel acquisition, development and ownership activities only through the Company; - Any change in control of the Initial Lessee without the prior written consent of the Company will constitute a default under the Percentage Leases; and - The Percentage Leases will contain cross-default provisions that will enhance the Company's ability to enforce strict compliance with each Percentage Lease. ADDITIONAL LESSEES The Company believes that having multiple tenants will facilitate meeting its growth objectives, and therefore intends to pursue relationships with additional lessees. The Company believes there are a number of 33 38 capable hotel owner-operators who are undercapitalized and, therefore, unable to reposition their properties adequately, or are faced with a difficult financing environment because of today's increased equity requirements, and will be willing to engage in a sale and leaseback of their properties on terms that would allow both parties to achieve participation in the improving fundamentals of the lodging industry. In addition, the Company believes certain national franchisors are willing to develop a relationship with the Company and may become additional lessees as a means of expanding their franchise systems. The Company believes that its management's long tenure and reputation in the hotel industry will provide the Company access to these acquisition opportunities and enable the Company to select hotel properties and lessees that will further its acquisition and growth strategies. USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after payment of expenses incurred in connection with the Offering, are estimated to be approximately $151.6 million ($174.7 million if the over-allotment option is exercised in full), based on the initial public offering price of $20.00 per share. The Company will (i) contribute $111.6 million of the net proceeds to the Partnership in exchange for an 82.0% general partnership interest, and (ii) lend $40.0 million of the net proceeds to the Partnership in exchange for the Intercompany Convertible Note. The Intercompany Convertible Note bears interest at 9.5% and is convertible by the Company into an additional 3.7% interest in the Partnership. In conjunction with the Offering, the Partnership expects to borrow approximately $5.0 million under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is expected to bear interest at a variable rate computed at 200 basis points over LIBOR, which would result in an initial rate of 7.375%. The Partnership will use the amounts contributed and loaned to it approximately as follows:
(IN MILLIONS) Repayment of third party mortgage indebtedness (including certain prepayment penalties).................................................. $ 136.6 Repayment of loans payable to Boykin Management.......................... 3.1 Purchase of interests held by certain Other Partners and Boykin Associates, including repayment of advances and accrued interest thereon of $5.0 million................................................ 14.1 Working capital, formation costs and general partnership purposes........ 2.8 ------------- Total uses of proceeds................................................. $ 156.6 ===========
If the over-allotment option is exercised in full, the additional net proceeds will be invested in the Partnership and used by it for general purposes, including possible future acquisitions of additional hotel properties. While the Company engages from time to time in discussions regarding potential acquisitions, it has not entered into any agreement as of the date of this Prospectus to make any such acquisition. Pending the described uses, the net proceeds may be invested in interest-bearing accounts and short-term interest-bearing securities that are consistent with the Company's intention to qualify for taxation as a REIT. These investments may include, for example, government and government agency securities, certificates of deposit, interest-bearing bank deposits, mortgage loan participations and shares of other real estate investment trusts. 34 39 The mortgage indebtedness to be paid out of the net proceeds of the Offering matures at various times from June 1998 through October 2004 and bears interest at effective rates varying from 8.7% to 11.8% per year, as follows:

(2) Incurred within the last twelve months; proceeds were used to refinance outstanding indebtedness. See Note 3 of the Initial Hotels Excluding Lake Norman Hotels Notes to Combined Financial Statements. (3) Payable to Boykin Management; matures based on cash flow. (4) Payable to certain Other Partners; matures based on cash flow. (5) Incurred within the last twelve months; proceeds were used to fund the acquisition of the Lake Norman hotels. See Notes 3 and 4 of the Lake Norman Hotels Notes to Combined Financial Statements.
The $3.1 million indebtedness payable to Boykin Management will be paid to the Initial Lessee, as Boykin Management's successor. The Initial Lessee will use approximately $1.5 million of the amount paid to it to repay a third party lender, and will use the remaining balance to pay income taxes arising from the Formation Transactions or for working capital purposes. Robert and John Boykin are the sole beneficial owners of the Initial Lessee. DISTRIBUTION POLICY The Company intends to make regular quarterly distributions to holders of Common Shares initially equal to $0.45 per share, which on an annual basis would equal $1.80 per share and would represent approximately 97% of the Company's pro forma Cash Available for Distribution for the twelve months ending June 30, 1996. The distribution for the period commencing on the completion of the Offering and ending December 31, 1996 is expected to be a pro rata portion of the initial quarterly distribution. The Company intends to maintain its initial dividend rate for the first 12 months following the completion of the Offering, unless actual results of operations, economic conditions or other factors differ from the assumptions used in its estimate. The Company does not expect to change its estimated dividend rate per share if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised. For Federal income tax purposes, distributions paid to shareholders may consist of ordinary income, capital gains, nontaxable returns of capital, or a combination thereof. Aggregate distributions for the 12 months following the closing of the Offering are expected to be greater than 95% of the Company's REIT taxable income. The estimated minimum distribution required for the Company to maintain REIT status, based on the Company's estimated revenues less expenses for the 12 months ended June 30, 1996, is $13,800,000. Distributions in excess of earnings and profits generally will be treated as nontaxable return of 35 40 capital and, therefore, will result in a reduction of a shareholder's basis in the Common Shares, to the extent thereof, and thereafter as taxable gain. Those distributions will have the effect of deferring taxation until the sale of the shareholder's Common Shares. The Company will provide its shareholders an annual statement as to its designation of the taxability of distributions. The Company estimates that approximately 100% of the annual distribution to holders of Common Shares for 1996 will represent a return of capital for Federal income tax purposes. The Company's expectation reflects, among other things, the effect of nonrecurring penalties to be incurred in connection with the prepayment of certain debt at the time of the Formation Transactions. The Company anticipates that substantially all of the distributions in respect of 1997 will be taxable as dividends. The following table sets forth certain pro forma financial information for the Partnership for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, which was used to establish the expected initial distribution per share.

(2) Based on 8,275 Common Shares and 1,378 Units outstanding on completion of the Formation Transactions. Represents approximately 83% of Funds From Operations. Funds From Operations consists of income (loss) before minority interest (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property (including furniture and equipment) plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Industry analysts consider Funds From Operations to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. Funds From Operations should not be considered as a basis for computing distributions or as an alternative (i) to net income or other measurements under generally accepted accounting principles, as an indicator of operating performance, or (ii) to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, as a measure of liquidity. Funds From Operations does not reflect cash expenditures for capital improvements or principal amortization of indebtedness on the Initial Hotels. (3) Represents the anticipated initial aggregate annual distribution divided by estimated Cash Available for Distribution.
The primary source of proceeds to be used for distributions to shareholders is the Company's share of the rents due the Partnership pursuant to the Percentage Leases. The anticipated revenue may or may not be realized or collected. Accordingly, the statements set forth above with regard to distributions are forward-looking statements involving certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such statements. Important factors that could cause such different results include, but are not limited to, competition from other hotels, increases in operating costs, seasonality effects in hotel occupancy and revenues, and the potential loss of a franchise or liquor license in respect of any Initial Hotel or acquired hotel. See "Risk Factors." 36 41 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth as of June 30, 1996 (i) the historical combined capitalization of the Initial Hotels and (ii) the pro forma consolidated capitalization of the Company, as adjusted to give effect to the Formation Transactions and the use of the net proceeds as described under the caption "Use of Proceeds." The information set forth in the following table should be read in conjunction with the "Selected Financial Information," the pro forma consolidated financial statements of the Company, the historical combined financial statements of the Initial Hotels, and the discussion set forth in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

37 42 DILUTION The expected initial public offering price per Common Share exceeds the pro forma net tangible book value per share. Therefore, the Boykin Group Affiliates who receive Units will realize an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of their Units, while purchasers of Common Shares sold in the Offering will realize an immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of their shares. Pro forma net tangible book value per share is determined by subtracting total liabilities from total tangible assets and dividing the remainder by the number of Common Shares and Units that will be outstanding after the Offering. The following table illustrates the dilution to purchasers of Common Shares sold in the Offering, based on the initial public offering price of $20.00 per share. Assumed initial public offering price per Common Share(1)................................................. $20.00 Pro forma net tangible book value per share prior to the Offering(2).............................................. $(26.25) Increase in pro forma net tangible book value per Common Share and Unit attributable to purchases of Common Shares in the Offering.......................................... $ 37.62 ------- Pro forma net tangible book value per Common Share and Unit after the Offering and the Formation Transactions(3)..... $11.37 ------ Dilution per Common Share purchased in the Offering........ $ 8.63 ======
The following table sets forth (i) the number of Common Shares to be sold by the Company in the Offering, the total contributions to be paid to the Company by purchasers of Common Shares sold in the Offering (based on the initial public offering price of $20.00 per share), the number of Common Shares outstanding and the number of Units to be issued in connection with the Formation Transactions; (ii) the net tangible book value as of June 30, 1996 of the assets contributed to the Company and the Partnership; and (iii) the net tangible book value of the average contribution per share and Unit based on total contributions.

The selected combined historical financial data for both the Initial Hotels (Excluding Lake Norman Hotels) and the Lake Norman Hotels for the three years ended December 31, 1995 have been derived from the historical financial statements audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants, whose reports with respect thereto are included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The selected combined historical financial data for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1992 are derived from unaudited financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. The pro forma statement of operations data is presented as if the Offering, the Formation Transactions, and the beginning of the relevant lease year had occurred on January 1, 1995 and, therefore, incorporates certain assumptions that are included in the Notes to the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The pro forma operating information for the Initial Lessee is presented to reflect the pro forma operations of the Initial Lessee for the periods presented, which operations are the source of the Initial Lessee's Percentage Lease payments to the Partnership. The pro forma balance sheet data is presented as if the Formation Transactions had occurred on June 30, 1996. The following selected financial information should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and all of the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus. 39 44 BOYKIN LODGING COMPANY SELECTED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA (1) (UNAUDITED, AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR PER SHARE DATA)

The pro forma information does not purport to represent what the Company's or the Initial Lessee's financial position or results of operations would actually have been if the consummation of the Formation Transactions had, in fact, occurred on such dates, or to project the Company's or the Initial Lessee's financial position or results of operations at any future date or for any future period. 2. Eight of the Initial Hotels utilize December 31 as year-end for financial reporting purposes and one of the Initial Hotels utilizes a September 30 fiscal year-end. For pro forma purposes, adjustments have been made to conform the year-ends of all the Initial Hotels to stated periods shown. For historical financial reporting purposes of the Initial Hotels (Excluding the Lake Norman Hotels), for the five years ended December 31, 1995, the September 30 financial data of the Initial Hotel having a September 30 fiscal year end have been combined with the December 31, 1995 financial data of the other Initial Hotels. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 and six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, the financial data of the hotel with the September 30 year end have been combined using the same month and periods as the other eight hotels. Pro forma financial data of the Initial Lessee for the year ended December 31, 1995 includes the operating results of Boykin Management Company (BMC) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996. For all other pro forma periods, the operating results of BMC have been conformed to June 30, 1995 and 1996 as applicable. In the opinion of management, the impact of using the different interim period ends is not material. 3. Represents lease payments from the Initial Lessee to the Partnership calculated on a pro forma basis by applying the rent provisions in the Percentage Leases to the historical revenues of the Initial Hotels for the period indicated, including for the Melbourne Quality Suites Inn an additional $725 of rent for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the 12 months ended June 30, 1996 required under the rental interruption insurance provision of the Percentage Lease agreements. The rent formula utilized in computing the pro forma Percentage Lease revenue and expense includes, for the calendar year 1995, an adjustment to reduce the threshold revenue amounts in the Percentage Lease formulas by the 2.5% increase in the Consumer Price Index for that year.
43 48 4. Estimated at $1.45 million annually for salaries, professional fees, directors' and officers' insurance, directors' fees and expenses and other general and administrative expenses associated with being a public company. 5. Calculated as 14.3% of the income before minority interest. 6. Represents Funds From Operations of the Company, on a consolidated basis. The following table computes Funds From Operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 under the newly adopted National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. Funds From Operations consists of income (loss) before minority interest (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) excluding gains (losses) from debt restructuring and sales of property (including furniture and equipment) plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Industry analysts consider Funds From Operations to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. Funds From Operations should not be considered as a basis for computing distributions or as an alternative (i) to net income or other measurements under generally accepted accounting principles, as an indicator of operating performance, or (ii) to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities, as a measure of liquidity. Funds From Operations does not reflect cash expenditures for capital improvements or principal amortization of indebtedness on the Initial Hotels.

Calculated as Funds From Operations less additions to the Capital Expenditures Fund plus amortization of debt issue costs included in interest expense. 9. Represents estimated initial dividends to be paid based on the initial dividend rate of $1.80 per share and an aggregate of 9,653 Common Shares and Units outstanding. 10. Represents income (loss) before extraordinary items, excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and gain on property insurance recovery. 11. The Summary Combined Historical Operating Data, Cash Flow Data and Other Data for the Lake Norman Hotels for the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 are presented on a pro forma basis, making necessary pro forma adjustments to the historical operating results to reflect additional depreciation expense associated with the purchase accounting writeup to the investment in hotel properties, the additional interest expense associated with the acquisition indebtedness and an increase in management fee expense. 12. From August 1993 until February 1996, the catering, meeting, lounge and restaurant facilities of the Lake Norman Holiday Inn were operated by a third party operator. In February 1996, when a Boykin Group Affiliate purchased the hotel facility, it also purchased the food and beverage business assets of this operator. 44 49 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Upon completion of the Formation Transactions and the Offering, the Company will own an 85.7% interest in the Initial Hotels through its interest in the Partnership. In order for the Company to qualify as a REIT, neither the Company nor the Partnership can operate hotels. Therefore, the Partnership will lease the Initial Hotels to the Initial Lessee. The Partnership's, and therefore the Company's, principal sources of funds will be lease payments under the Percentage Leases. Percentage Rent will be based on the Initial Hotels' revenues, and the Initial Lessee's ability to make payments to the Partnership under the Percentage Leases will be dependent primarily on the Initial Lessee's ability to generate cash flow from the operation of the Initial Hotels. GENERAL Results of operations are best explained by three key performance indicators: Occupancy, ADR, and REVPAR. Increases in REVPAR attributable to increases in Occupancy are accompanied by increases in most categories of variable operating costs. Increases in REVPAR attributable to increases in ADR are accompanied by increases in limited categories of operating costs, such as management fees and license fees. PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE CONSOLIDATED COMPANY The following table sets forth key indicators for all of the Initial Hotels combined and is useful in understanding the underlying changes in the percentage rent for the Company during the pro forma period of 1995 and the six months ended June 30, 1996.
SIX MONTHS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, ENDED JUNE 30, -------------------------- ---------------- KEY FACTORS 1993 1994 1995 1995 1996 ------------------------------------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Occupancy........................... 72.6% 74.7% 74.9% 74.2% 76.8% ADR................................. $75.50 $79.27 $85.47 $84.82 $89.03 REVPAR.............................. $54.80 $59.24 $63.98 $62.93 $68.35
For the year ended December 31, 1995 the Company had pro forma revenues of $25.5 million from the Percentage Leases that would have been in place at the Initial Hotels. The pro forma revenues for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 would have been $27.2 million. This 6.7% increase of $1.7 million is attributable to a 2.6% improvement in occupancy from 74.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1995 to 76.8% for the six months ended June 30, 1996, and a 5% improvement in ADR from $84.82 in the six months ended June 30, 1995 to $89.03 in the six months ended June 30, 1996. Pro forma expenses remained about the same as no significant changes have occurred during the six month period. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE INITIAL HOTELS (EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS) The following table sets forth certain combined historical financial information for the Initial Hotels (Excluding Lake Norman Hotels), as a percentage of revenues, for the periods indicated. 45 50

Industry analysts generally consider this to be an appropriate measure of the performance of hotels. However, this indicator should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of the Initial Lessee's performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. (2) No assurance can be given that the trends reflected in this data will continue or that occupancy, ADR and REVPAR will not decrease as a result of changes in national or local economic or hospitality industry conditions.
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 1996 with the six months ended June 30, 1995 Room revenues increased $2.2 million, or 8.6% from the six months ended June 30, 1995 to the same period in 1996. REVPAR increased from $65.30 in the six months ended June 30, 1995 to $70.55 for the same period in 1996, or a 8% increase. Room revenues were driven by both increases in ADR at all of the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels), and occupancy which increased between the periods at six of the seven Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels). The occupancy growth is attributable to a continuation into 1996 of the strong demand experienced in the last half of 1995, particularly in the Ohio and California markets. Food and beverage revenue grew $.4 million or 3.1% from the six months ended June 30, 1995 compared to the same period in 1996. This is attributable to the growth in occupancy between the periods. Departmental and other expenses grew by $1.7 million or 6.3% between the periods. This was caused primarily by the growth in occupancy, which is accompanied by increases in most categories of variable expenses. This is demonstrated by these costs remaining relatively unchanged as a percentage of revenues during both periods. In addition, management fees increased by $.2 million between the periods because of 46 51 higher revenues and increases in the management fee rate implemented in the second quarter of 1995 at four of the hotels. Franchisor fees also increased by $.3 million between the periods because of revenue increases and contractually scheduled increases in the fee rate at two of the hotels. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $.5 million or 18% primarily due to the additional depreciation on the property writeup recorded in May 1995 when the Melbourne, Berkeley, and Cleveland Airport hotels redeemed their respective partnership interests held by non-Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Group Affiliates were admitted as new partners, and the depreciation on new property additions. Interest expense increased by $.9 million or 14.2% due to the new mortgage debt incurred in May 1995 to finance the redemptions of the Melbourne, Berkeley and Cleveland Airport hotels' partnership interests and to refinance existing mortgage debt at the Fort Myers, Melbourne, Berkeley and Cleveland Airport hotels. The gain on early extinguishment of debt of $.6 million recorded in May 1995 related to the refinancing referred to above while the loss of $1.3 million on early extinguishment of debt in 1996 related to the refinancing of the mortgage debt of the Buffalo hotel. Net income was impacted most significantly by the change in the extraordinary items between the periods. In 1995 the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels) recorded an extraordinary gain of $.6 million on refinancing while in 1996 the Buffalo hotel recorded an extraordinary loss of $1.3 million on its refinancing. EBITDA increased $.9 million or 9.0% from the six months ended June 1995 to the six months ended June 1996. This improvement is attributable to the increase in revenues of $2.7 million due to growth in occupancy during the periods, reduced by the corresponding increases in variable operating costs of $1.7 million in departmental and other expenses. Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1995 with 1994 Room revenues increased $2.1 million, or 4.3% from 1994 to 1995. As can be seen by the growth of REVPAR, revenues as reported were driven by increases in the ADR which occurred at almost all of the hotels, while occupancy declined .6% overall. This was attributable in part to the general improvement in the business travel and tourism industries. The continuation of the Boykin Group's focus on maximizing REVPAR by focusing on increasing ADR while maintaining stable occupancy during this period had a significant effect. Food and beverage revenue grew $.2 million or .8% from 1994 to 1995. This reflects the slight decline in occupancy offset by inflationary price increases in food and beverages. The composition of revenue stayed consistent between the periods, with only a slight decline in food revenues, from 30.2% of the total to 29.4%, reflecting that the gains in revenue occurred in room rates during this period. Total revenues increased $2.6 million, or 3.5%, from 1994 to 1995. This increase was in spite of the loss of an estimated $1.3 million in revenues arising from the damage to the Melbourne Quality Suites by Hurricane Erin in August 1995. The hurricane damage was covered by insurance, including business interruption insurance, so the net income of the combined hotels was not materially affected. Departmental and other expenses increased by $.7 million or 1.2% between the years because of general inflationary pressures which were offset by aggressive cost management and $1.1 million in estimated proceeds from the Melbourne business interruption insurance claims which were netted against operating expenses. These costs declined as a percentage of revenues from 71.4% in 1994 to 69.9% in 1995, due to the positive effect of revenues growing at a faster pace than expenses. In addition, management fees increased from 3.8% of revenues in 1994 to 4.2% of revenues in 1995 because of higher revenues and increases in the management fee rate implemented in the second quarter of 1995 at four of the hotels. Franchisor fees increased $.9 million, or 29.2%, between years primarily because 1994 contained a reduction in franchise fees of $.6 million from the forgiveness of accrued franchise fees at the Melbourne Quality Suites hotel that resulted from a renegotiation of the franchise agreement. This was offset by growth in fees as a result of improved revenues and a contractually scheduled increase in the fee rate at the Columbus Marriott North. Real estate and personal property taxes, insurance and rent increased 7.5% from 1994 to 1995. This is primarily attributable to higher costs for insurance as the Boykin Group purchased improved coverage. The gain on property insurance 47 52 recovery of $.7 million recorded in 1995 related to the excess of insurance proceeds over the net book value of assets replaced at the Melbourne Quality Suites due to the damage caused by Hurricane Erin in August 1995. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $.9 million or 15% primarily due to the additional depreciation on the property writeup recorded in May 1995 when Melbourne, Berkeley and Cleveland Airport hotels redeemed their respective partnership interests held by non-Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Group Affiliates were admitted as new partners. Interest expense increased by $1.8 million or 14.3% due to the new mortgage debt incurred in May 1995 to finance the redemption of the Melbourne, Berkeley and Cleveland Airport hotels' partnership interests and to refinance existing mortgage debt at the Fort Myers, Melbourne, Berkeley and Cleveland Airport hotels. The gain on early extinguishment of debt of $.6 million recorded in May 1995 related to the refinancing referred to above. Net income improved $.3 million due to the improved ADR at most of the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels), the benefit of the Melbourne property insurance settlement and the extraordinary gain on refinancing, all of which were partially offset by higher depreciation and interest costs resulting from the May 1995 redemption of partnership interests held by certain non-Boykin Group Affiliates. EBITDA grew $1.7 million or 9.5% from 1994 to 1995. This improvement is attributable to the increase in revenues due to growth in ADR during the periods which was partially offset by increases in franchise and management fees. Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1994 with 1993 Room revenues increased $2.9 million, or 6.3% from 1993 to 1994. This was primarily driven by increases in ADR at almost all of the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels), while occupancy increased .6%. This was attributable to the general improvement in the business travel and tourism industries and lack of any new competition in the markets where the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels) operate. Food and beverage revenue grew $.5 million or 2% from 1993 to 1994, relating to the slight increase in occupancy and inflationary price increases in food and beverages. The composition of revenue stayed consistent between the periods, with only a slight decline in food revenues, from 31.0% of the total to 30.2%, which reflects that most of the gains in revenue occurred in room rates during this period. Departmental and other expenses grew by $.7 million, or 1.4%, between the years because of general inflationary pressures, offset by aggressive cost management. These costs declined as a percentage of revenues from 73.9% in 1993 to 71.4% in 1994, as revenues grew faster than expenses. Expenses were also reduced in 1994 by $.6 million because of the forgiveness of accrued franchise fees at the Melbourne Quality Suites hotel that resulted from a renegotiation of the franchise agreement with the franchisor. Depreciation and amortization expense remained relatively constant between 1993 and 1994. Net income improved $2.6 million due to improved ADR and the benefit of the forgiveness of franchise fees at Melbourne, offset partially by higher departmental and other expenses. EBITDA grew $2.5 million or 16.1% from 1993 to 1994. This improvement is attributable to the increase in ADR during the periods and the forgiveness of accrued in franchise fees at Melbourne. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal source of cash to meet its cash requirements, including distributions to shareholders, will be its share of the Partnership's cash flow. The Partnership's principal source of revenue will be rent payments under the Percentage Leases. The Initial Lessee's obligations under the Percentage Leases are unsecured and the Initial Lessee's ability to make rent payments to the Partnership under the Percentage Leases, and the Company's liquidity, including its ability to make distributions to shareholders, will be dependent on the Initial Lessee's ability to generate sufficient cash flow from the operation of the Initial Hotels. On consummation of the Offering and application of the net proceeds therefrom, the Company expects to have approximately $5.0 million of outstanding debt arising from a draw on the Credit Facility. The Company 48 53 intends to acquire and develop additional hotels and will incur indebtedness to fund that acquisition and development. The Company may also incur indebtedness to meet distribution requirements imposed on a REIT under the Code to the extent that working capital and cash flow from the Company's investments are insufficient to make the required distributions. The terms of the Credit Facility permit borrowings for that purpose, but impose certain limitations on the Company's ability to engage in other borrowings. See "Policies and Objectives with Respect to Certain Activities -- Financing." The Company has obtained the Credit Facility to assist it in funding its acquisition and development of additional hotels and for certain other purposes, including capital expenditures and working capital, as necessary. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be secured by first mortgages on several of the Initial Hotels and on any additional properties acquired or developed by the Company, subject to certain release provisions. The Company may seek to increase the amount of the Credit Facility, negotiate additional credit facilities, or issue debt instruments. Any debt incurred or issued by the Company may be secured or unsecured, long-term, medium-term or short-term, bear interest at a fixed or variable rate, and be subject to such other terms as the Board of Directors considers prudent. The Company will acquire or develop additional hotels only as suitable opportunities arise, and the Company will not undertake acquisition or development of properties unless adequate sources of financing are available. Funds for future acquisitions or development of hotels are expected to be derived, in whole or in part, from borrowings under the Credit Facility or other borrowings or from the proceeds of additional issuances of Common Shares or other securities. The Company has no agreement or understanding to invest in any properties other than the Initial Hotels, and there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully acquire or develop additional hotels. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Acquisition Strategy." The Company will contribute to the Capital Expenditures Fund on a continuing basis, from the rent paid under the Percentage Leases, an amount equal to 4% of the Initial Lessee's revenues from operation of the Initial Hotels. In addition, the Company intends to make available $3.5 million from the Credit Facility to fund the Capital Expenditures Fund, as needed. The Company intends to use the Capital Expenditures Fund for capital improvements to the Initial Hotels and refurbishment and replacement of FF&E, but may make other uses of amounts in the fund that it considers appropriate from time to time. The Company anticipates making similar arrangements with respect to future hotels that it may acquire or develop. During the period from January 1, 1993 through June 30, 1996, the Initial Hotels spent approximately $15 million for capital expenditures. The Company considers the majority of these improvements to be revenue producing and therefore these amounts have been capitalized and are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The Initial Hotels also spent $13.5 million during the period from January 1, 1993 through June 30, 1996 on repairs and maintenance and these amounts have been charged to expense as incurred. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Renovation Strategy" for further discussion of capital expenditures at the Initial Hotels. INFLATION The Company's revenues initially will be based on the Percentage Leases, which will result in changes in the Company's revenues based on changes in the underlying Initial Hotel revenues. Therefore, the Company initially will be relying entirely on the performance of the Initial Hotels and the Initial Lessee's ability to increase revenues to keep pace with inflation. Operators of hotels in general, and the Initial Lessee, can change room rates quickly, but competitive pressures may limit the Initial Lessee's ability to raise rates faster than inflation. The compound annual growth rate of ADR on the Initial Hotels for the five years ended December 31, 1995 was 3.0%, or about the rate of inflation in the Consumer Price Index. According to industry statistics, industry-wide annual increases in ADR have failed to keep pace with inflation since 1987. The Company's largest fixed expense is the depreciation of the investment in hotel properties. The Company's variable expenses, which are subject to inflation, represent approximately 20% of pro forma revenues. These variable expenses (general & administrative costs as well as real estate and personal taxes, property and casualty insurance and ground rent) are expected to grow with the general rate of inflation. 49 54 SEASONALITY The Initial Hotels' operations historically have been seasonal. Seven of the Initial Hotels maintain higher occupancy rates during the second and third quarters. The two Florida Initial Hotels experience their highest occupancy in the first quarter. This seasonality pattern can be expected to cause fluctuations in the Company's quarterly lease revenue under the Percentage Leases. The Company anticipates that its cash flow from the Initial Lessee's operation of the Initial Hotels will be sufficient to enable the Company to make quarterly distributions at the estimated initial rate for at least the next twelve months. To the extent that cash flow from operations is insufficient during any quarter, because of temporary or seasonal fluctuations in lease revenue, the Company expects to utilize other cash on hand or borrowings to make those distributions. See "Business and Properties -- Business Strategy -- Financing Strategy.") No assurance can be given that the Company will make distributions in the future at the initially estimated rate, or at all. 50 55 BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES THE HOTEL INDUSTRY The hotel industry is currently benefiting from an increase in room demand which outpaces the growth in supply. According to the Kenneth Leventhal Real Estate Group of Ernst & Young LLP, industry-wide room demand increased between 3.0% and 4.7% each year from 1992 through 1995, while the supply of new rooms increased between 1.0% and 1.4% annually during that period. As might be expected in such a supply/demand environment, occupancies and ADR have increased each year during the period and are projected to increase in 1996. Occupancy rose from 62% industry-wide in 1992 to a projected 66% in 1995. As shown in the following chart from Kenneth Leventhal's 1996 National Lodging Forecast (the "1996 Forecast") Kenneth Leventhal projects industry-wide occupancy to grow to 67% in 1996 and to increase to 68% by year-end 1997. See the chart set forth under "The Company" for a comparison of the occupancy, ADR and REVPAR for the Initial Hotels to that of their local markets (including the Initial Hotels and their local competing hotels as defined by the Company), all U.S. upscale/moderate full service hotels, and all U.S. hotels.

52 57 GENERAL. Each of the Initial Hotels is under the direction of a general manager and an executive committee, which are accountable for and are compensated in part based on the property's performance. This group oversees day-to-day operations and develops annual budgets and marketing, long-term capital, and human resource development plans. Each Initial Hotel is responsible for developing its own marketing plan. These plans are comprehensive, analyzing local market conditions and the hotel's competition, determining hotel positioning, identifying consumer needs, and outlining marketing objectives and strategies. Each plan will continue to be evaluated quarterly by the Initial Lessee to maintain effectiveness under changing market conditions. The Initial Lessee stresses first-rate financial management and comprehensive revenue reporting and believes its management team is skilled at anticipating business needs and changes to maintain competitiveness in its markets. All hotel departments, including rooms, food & beverage, accounting, sales and marketing, engineering and human resources, will continue to receive regular on-site performance reviews and have open lines of communication directly to the Initial Lessee's management. These performance reviews will enable the Initial Lessee to maintain an in-depth understanding of each hotel's marketing opportunities and insure that the Company's properties receive direction to enable on-site management to maximize profits. The following discussion sets forth additional information for each Initial Hotel. Additional statistical data concerning capital expenditures at each of the Initial Hotels during the fiscal years 1991 through 1995 is set forth in the chart under the heading "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Renovation Strategy." Information concerning the indebtedness associated with the Initial Hotels and the payment thereof in connection with the Offering is set forth under "Use of Proceeds." The information set forth below comparing each Initial Hotel to its local competition is based on reports obtained from Smith Travel Research, which is not associated in any way with the Company or any of its Affiliates and has not provided any form of assistance in connection with and the Offering. Each Initial Hotel's Local Competition includes four to seven competitors in its market, as currently defined by Boykin Management for property and personnel performance evaluation purposes and used for all periods referred to. Boykin Management's consistently-applied criteria for defining each hotel's competitive set include comparability of location, target customers, rates, and level of service provided. The composition of a hotel's competitive set changes from time to time as competitors enter or exit the market or as comparative information for competitors becomes unavailable.

57 62 At the inception of the Company, each Initial Hotel will be separately leased by the Company to the Initial Lessee under a Percentage Lease. Hotels acquired in the future may be leased to the Initial Lessee or other lessees and it is possible, though not presently intended, that the Initial Hotels may also be leased to others or sold in the future. Each Percentage Lease contains the provisions described below. The Company expects that leases with respect to its future hotel property investments will contain substantially similar provisions, although the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, alter any of these provisions with respect to any particular lease, depending on the purchase price paid, economic conditions and other factors it considers relevant. The following summary of the material terms of the Percentage Leases is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Percentage Lease, which has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. Duration. The Percentage Leases will have noncancelable terms ranging from four to 10 years, subject to earlier termination on the occurrence of certain contingencies described in the Percentage Leases (including, particularly, the provisions described herein under "Damage to Hotels," "Condemnation of Hotel" and "Termination of Percentage Leases on Disposition of the Hotels"). The Percentage Leases do not contain renewal terms. The Percentage Leases for seven of the Initial Hotels expire on the earlier of the franchise renewal date or the tenth anniversary of the Offering. Having these lease terminations coincide with franchise renewal dates may facilitate any necessary repositioning of the hotels at the time of the franchise renewals. In addition, having staggered lease termination dates will enable the Company to deal with lease and franchise renewal issues on a more deliberate basis than would be the case if all of the leases expired simultaneously. Amounts Payable Under the Percentage Leases. The Initial Lessee will be obligated to pay (i) the higher of Minimum Rent or Percentage Rent; and (ii) certain other amounts, including interest accrued on any late payment or charge (the "Additional Charges"). Minimum Rent is a fixed amount determined by negotiation between the Company and the Initial Lessee. Percentage Rent is calculated by multiplying fixed percentages by gross room and other revenue, and gross food and beverage revenue, over specified threshold amounts. Minimum Rent is payable monthly in advance, and Percentage Rent is payable for each quarter within 30 days after the end of the quarter. Both the threshold gross room and other revenue amounts used in computing Percentage Rent and Minimum Rent will be adjusted for changes in the Consumer Price Index. The changes will be calculated at the beginning of each calendar year beginning with 1997, based on the average annual change in the CPI during the prior 12 months. Each Percentage Lease requires the Initial Lessee to pay rent, all costs and expenses, and all utility and other charges incurred in the operation of the hotel. All capital expenditures (as defined in the lease) will be the responsibility of the Company. Each Percentage Lease also provides for rent reductions and abatements in the event of damage or destruction or a partial taking of the hotel as described under "Damage to Initial Hotels" and "Condemnation of Initial Hotels." The Initial Lessee will be required to carry insurance to cover rental interruption for a period up to one year. Maintenance and Modifications. The Initial Lessee will be required, at its expense, to maintain the hotel in good order and repair, except for ordinary wear and tear, and to make nonstructural, foreseen and unforeseen, and ordinary and extraordinary, repairs which may be necessary and appropriate to keep the hotel in good order and repair. The Company will fund capital expenditures and the repair, replacement and refurbishment of FF&E in the hotel, when and as considered necessary by the Company as required by the Franchises, and will maintain the Capital Expenditures Fund to help provide funds to cover such expenses. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Renovation Strategy." The Company will make an annual contribution to the Capital Expenditures Fund in an amount equal to 4% of the Initial Lessee's aggregate gross revenues generated from the hotel. The Company and the Initial Lessee will agree on an annual capital budget for each Initial Hotel. The Initial Lessee, at its expense, may make noncapital and capital additions, modifications or improvements to the hotel, so long as doing so does not significantly alter the character or purposes of the hotel or significantly detract from its value or operating efficiencies. All such alterations, replacements and improvements will be subject to all of the terms of the Percentage Lease and will become the property of the 58 63 Company on termination of the lease. The Company will own the FF&E, except in limited circumstances under which the Initial Lessee may purchase certain FF&E and the Initial Lessee will own substantially all other personal property not affixed to, or considered a part of, the real estate or improvements thereon. Any purchase of FF&E by the Initial Lessee will be made on terms negotiated between the Company and the Initial Lessee. For so long as the Initial Lessee maintains its interior design and purchasing operations, it will perform interior design and purchasing services for the Initial Hotels without charge to the Company. Insurance and Property Taxes. The Company is responsible for paying real estate and personal property taxes on the hotel and for maintaining property insurance, including casualty insurance. The Initial Lessee is required to maintain comprehensive general public liability, workers' compensation, 12-month rental interruption insurance and any other insurance customary for properties similar to the hotel or required by any relevant Franchisor, and to have the Company named as an additional insured. The Company believes that the insurance coverage carried by each Initial Hotel is adequate in scope and amount. Indemnification. Under each Percentage Lease, the Initial Lessee will indemnify the Company against all liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or asserted against the Partnership, on account of, among other things, (i) any accident or injury to person or property on or about the hotel; (ii) any negligence by the Initial Lessee or any of its agents as to the leased property; (iii) any environmental liability resulting from conditions existing at the time of completion of the Offering or caused or resulting thereafter from any action, inaction or negligence of the Initial Lessee (see "Business and Properties -- Environmental Matters"); (iv) taxes and assessments in respect of the hotel (other than real estate taxes and income taxes of the Company on income attributable to the hotel); (v) the sale or consumption of alcoholic beverages on or in the real property or improvements thereon; or (vi) any breach of the lease by the Initial Lessee. The Initial Lessee will not be required, however, to indemnify the Company against the Company's negligence or willful misconduct. Assignment and Subleasing. The Initial Lessee will not be permitted to sublet all or any part of the hotel or assign its interest under the lease without the prior written consent of the Partnership. The Initial Lessee may, however, enter into a management agreement with a third party for the management and operation of the hotel, with the consent of the Company, which the Company may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. No assignment, subletting or management agreement will release the Initial Lessee from any of its obligations under the lease. The lease may not be indirectly sold by selling direct or indirect ownership or control of the Initial Lessee without causing a default under the Initial Lease. Damage to Initial Hotels. If damage to or destruction of any Initial Hotel renders such hotel unsuitable for the Initial Lessee's use and occupancy and is covered by insurance, the Company may elect to repair, rebuild or restore the hotel or offer to acquire it on the terms set forth in the lease. If the hotel is not rebuilt, the lease will terminate and the insurance proceeds will be retained by the Company. If damage to or destruction of the hotel does not render the hotel wholly unsuitable for the Initial Lessee's use and occupancy and is covered by insurance, the Company generally will be obligated to repair or restore the hotel. The lease will remain in full force and effect during the first 12 months of any period required for repair or restoration of the hotel, after which time rent will be equitably abated. Condemnation of Initial Hotels. In the event of a total condemnation of an Initial Hotel, each of the Company and the Initial Lessee will be entitled to terminate the lease as of the date of taking. The resulting condemnation award will be allocated between the Company and the Initial Lessee as set forth in the lease. In the event of a partial taking that does not render the hotel unsuitable for the Initial Lessee's use, the Company must restore the untaken portion of the hotel to a complete architectural unit, subject to an equitable abatement of the rent during the period in which the hotel is not fully useable, and the Company must provide the required funds to cover the cost of that restoration, which may include that part of the condemnation award specified for restoration. Events of Default. Events of Default under each Percentage Lease include, among others, the following: 59 64 (i) the failure by the Initial Lessee to pay Minimum Rent when due and the continuation of that failure for a period of 10 days; (ii) the failure by the Initial Lessee to pay the Percentage Rent for any quarter within 10 days after the end of that quarter; (iii) the failure by the Initial Lessee to observe or perform any other term of the Lease and the continuation of that failure beyond any applicable cure period; (iv) an Event of Default under any other Percentage Lease; (v) if the Initial Lessee files a petition in bankruptcy or reorganization under any federal or state bankruptcy law or any similar federal or state law, or is adjudicated a bankrupt or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or if a petition or answer proposing the adjudication of the Initial Lessee as a bankrupt or its reorganization pursuant to any federal or state bankruptcy law or any similar federal or state law is filed in any court and the Initial Lessee is adjudicated a bankrupt and that adjudication is not vacated or set aside or stayed within 60 days after the entry of an order in respect thereof, or if a receiver of the Initial Lessee or of the whole or substantially all of the assets of the Initial Lessee is appointed in any proceeding brought by the Initial Lessee or any such receiver, trustee or liquidator is appointed in any proceeding brought against the Initial Lessee and that appointment is not vacated or set aside or stayed within 60 days after that appointment is made; (vi) if the Initial Lessee voluntarily discontinues operations of the hotel for more than 10 days, except as a result of damage, destruction, or condemnation; (vii) if the franchise agreement with respect to any Initial Hotel is terminated by the franchisor as a result of any action or failure to act by the Initial Lessee or its agents; (viii) any failure to comply with the Initial Lessee's covenants regarding distributions and maintenance of its net worth, as described under "Lessees -- The Initial Lessee"; or (ix) Robert and John Boykin and their heirs cease to own at least 51% of the Initial Lessee or otherwise fail to control the Initial Lessee. If an Event of Default occurs and continues beyond any curative period, the Company may terminate the Lease and any or all of the other Percentage Leases, and the Initial Lessee will be required to surrender possession of the affected hotels. Termination of Percentage Leases on Disposition of the Initial Hotels. If the Company enters into an agreement to transfer an Initial Hotel to a non-Affiliate, the Company may terminate that hotel's Percentage Lease by giving the Initial Lessee 30 days prior notice and paying it the fair market value of its leasehold interest in the remaining term of that Percentage Lease. Franchise Agreements. The Initial Lessee will be the franchisee under the franchise agreements for the Initial Hotels. Inventory. All working capital assets required in the operation of the Initial Hotels will be purchased by the Initial Lessee at its expense. FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS Five of the nine Initial Hotels are licensed by Marriott International, Inc. Of the four remaining Initial Hotels, one is licensed by Promus Hotels, Inc. (licensor of Hampton Inns hotels), one by Choice Hotels International, Inc. (licensor of Quality Suites hotels), one by Radisson Hotels International, Inc. and one by Holiday Inns Franchising, Inc. These franchisors have consented to the transfer of the Initial Hotels to the Partnership and of the related franchise agreements to the Initial Lessee. The Company anticipates that the additional hotel properties in which it invests will in most cases be operated under franchise agreements. The Company believes that the public's perception of quality associated with a franchisor can be an important feature in the operation of a hotel. Franchisors provide a variety of 60 65 benefits for franchisees, including national advertising, publicity, and other marketing programs designed to increase brand awareness, training of personnel, continuous review of quality standards, and centralized reservation systems. The franchise agreements generally impose certain management, operational, recordkeeping, accounting, reporting, and marketing standards and procedures with which the Initial Lessee must comply. The franchise agreements will obligate the Initial Lessee to comply with the franchisors' standards and requirements with respect to, among other things, training of operational personnel, safety, maintenance of insurance, provision of ancillary services and products, display of signage, and the type, quality, and age of FF&E included in guest rooms and lobbies and other common areas. See "Risk Factors -- Hotel Industry Risks -- Franchise Risks." Termination. Each franchise agreement gives the Initial Lessee the right to operate the related Initial Hotel under a franchise for a period of years specified in that agreement. The Initial Lessee is responsible for making all payments under the franchise agreements to the franchisor. The expiration dates for the Initial Hotels' franchise agreements range from October 31, 1997 to September 4, 2014. The franchise agreements provide for early termination at the franchisor's option on the occurrence of certain events, including the Initial Lessee's failure to pay fees or perform its other covenants under the franchise agreement, bankruptcy, abandonment of the franchise, or assignment of the franchise without the consent of the franchisor. The Initial Lessee has the right to terminate the Berkeley Marina Marriott franchise agreement, which is scheduled to expire on October 31, 1997, at any time on or after December 31, 1996. Each of the Initial Lessee and Choice Hotels International, Inc. has the right to terminate the Melbourne Quality Suites franchise agreement, which is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2006, effective December 31, 2001. Sale of Hotel. The franchise agreements with Marriott contain a provision requiring the franchisee, on receiving a bona fide offer to buy or lease the related Initial Hotel, to give the franchisor the option to buy or lease (as applicable) that hotel on the same terms as are contained in that offer. The Choice Hotel franchise agreement provides that the agreement automatically terminates on transfer of the related hotel unless the franchisor expressly consents to that transfer. The Hampton Inn license agreement provides that a transferee of the related hotel must apply for a new franchise and that transfers not specifically authorized under the license agreement (for example, transfers upon the death of the licensee or an equity owner of the licensee) are void and are also a breach of the license agreement. The Holiday Inn license agreement provides that a transferee of the hotel must apply for a new license unless the franchisor has given its prior written consent to the transfer of the hotel. Noncompetition. The franchise agreements for the five Marriott hotels included in the Initial Hotels prohibit the franchisee from being connected or associated in any manner with any hotel, motel or inn business within a 5 mile radius around the franchised hotel. These restrictions can be waived by Marriott, whose waiver may not be unreasonably withheld. The Company has obtained a waiver of these restrictions in regard to the Offering. If a franchise agreement is terminated because of a default by the Initial Lessee, the Initial Lessee may not, for 24 months after termination, operate any motel, hotel or inn business (other than those in which it is then engaged) that is in the 5 mile radius trade area. There are no restrictions on the Company's ownership of other hotels in the Hampton or Holiday Inn license agreements, or in the Radisson or Choice Hotel franchise agreements. Fees. Under the franchise agreements, the Initial Lessee will pay franchise fees ranging from 3% to 6% of gross room sales and advertising or marketing and reservation fees ranging from .8% to 4% of gross room sales.

EXCLUDED PROPERTIES Robert and John Boykin will participate with an unrelated party in the development of a parcel, other than for hotel use, that is located near the Buffalo Marriott Hotel and that is not owned by the Boykin Group. One parcel of undeveloped real estate owned by William Boykin will also not be transferred to the Partnership. OTHER ACTIVITIES At the time of the Formation Transactions, subsidiaries of the Initial Lessee will acquire and continue the third-party hotel management, interior design and purchasing services business of Boykin Management. John E. Boykin will serve as the initial Secretary of the subsidiaries. The subsidiaries initially will manage 11 hotels, none of which is owned by the Company, Boykin Management or any other Boykin Group Affiliate. Three of these hotels are Hampton Inns in the Chicago, Illinois area, containing an aggregate of 366 rooms. These hotels are owned by an insurance company and have been managed by Boykin Management since December 1995. The remaining eight managed hotels, which Boykin Management has managed since February 1996 on behalf of an institutional investor, contain an aggregate of 1,154 rooms and are located in Santa Barbara County and Ventura County, California. Robert and John Boykin hold interests in a joint venture formed to purchase, other than for hotel purposes, a six-acre parcel in the immediate vicinity of the Buffalo Marriott Hotel. The Company and the joint venture have entered into an agreement that provides for certain cross-easements between the properties and provides that the land will contain specific deed restrictions to prevent the development of any hotel thereon. 62 67 William J. Boykin, the retired Chairman of Boykin Management and the father of Robert and John Boykin, is developing a Hampton Inn on certain real property owned by him in Miami, Florida that is adjacent to a shopping center developed by him in 1989. The hotel is expected to open in the fall of 1996. No other Boykin Group Affiliate will have an interest in the development of this hotel, but the Company will have a right of first refusal to purchase the hotel if William J. Boykin elects to sell it. EMPLOYEES The Company will have five employees. These employees will perform, directly or through the Partnership, various acquisition, development, redevelopment and management functions. Approximately 75% of the Initial Lessee's employees will be engaged in managing the operations of the Initial Hotels. Approximately 25 of the Initial Lessee's employees will also have responsibilities relating to the design, purchasing and management services to be rendered to third parties, as described above. The Initial Lessee will continue the Boykin Group's ongoing recruiting efforts to attract the highest quality talent at all levels of sales management. None of the persons who will be employees of the Company or the Initial Lessee are represented by a union. The Company believes that its and the Initial Lessee's relations with their respective employees are excellent. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in the property. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. Furthermore, a person that arranges for the disposal of a hazardous substance at another property or transports a hazardous substance for disposal or treatment at another property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at that property, regardless whether that person owns or operates that property. The costs of any such remediation or removal may be substantial, and the presence of any such substance, or the failure promptly to remediate any such substance, may adversely affect the property owner's ability to sell or lease the property or to borrow using it as collateral. Other federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations require abatement or removal of certain asbestos-containing materials in connection with demolition or certain renovations or remodeling, impose certain worker protection and notification requirements, and govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. Other federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations and the common law impose on owners and operators certain requirements regarding conditions and activities that may affect human health or the environment. These conditions and activities include, for example, the presence of lead in drinking water, the presence of lead-containing paint in occupied structures, and the ownership or operation of underground storage tanks. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could result in difficulty in the lease or sale of any affected property or the imposition of monetary penalties, in addition to the costs required to achieve compliance and potential liability to third parties. The Company, the Partnership or the Initial Lessee, as the case may be, may be potentially liable for such costs or claims in connection with the ownership and operation of the Initial Hotels. See "Risk Factors -- Potential Environmental Liability". Phase I environmental site assessments are intended, among other things, to identify potential sources of contamination for which the Initial Hotels may be responsible. The Phase I assessments include historical reviews of properties, reviews of certain public records, preliminary investigations of the sites and surrounding properties (without invasive sampling or testing), screening for the presence of asbestos, PCBs and underground storage tanks, and the preparation and issuance of a written report. Certain Phase I assessments test for the presence of radon, lead-based paint, or lead in drinking water. Phase II assessments involve subsurface sampling. Phase I environmental site assessments or assessment updates have been completed within the last 24 months for each Initial Hotel, and a Phase II assessment was conducted for one Initial Hotel in April 1996. Additional sampling was conducted at one Initial Hotel because its Phase I assessment identified the presence 63 68 of contaminants at an adjacent gasoline station. None of the Phase I or Phase II assessments revealed any environmental contamination or condition that the Company believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, assets or results of operations. Furthermore, the Company is not aware of any such contamination or condition. Nevertheless, it is possible that there exists material environmental contamination of which the Company is unaware. No assurance can be given that (i) the assessments described above revealed all potential environmental liabilities; (ii) future or amended laws, ordinances or regulations, or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies of existing environmental requirements, will not impose any material environmental liability; or (iii) the environmental condition of the Initial Hotels has not been and will not be affected by changes in the condition of properties in the vicinity of the Initial Hotels or by the acts of third parties unrelated to the Company, Partnership or the Initial Lessee. The Company believes that the Initial Hotels are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances and other environmental matters, the violation of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Partnership. Neither the Company nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any other entity with an interest in any of the Initial Hotels, has been notified by any governmental authority, or is otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or other environmental matters in connection with any of its present or former properties. Certain Boykin Group Affiliates, including Robert and John Boykin, have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against any liability arising as a result of any environmental condition relating to the Initial Hotels at the time of consummation of the Offering. COMPETITION Each of the Initial Hotels is located in a developed area that includes other hotel properties. See "Business and Properties--The Initial Hotels" for a more detailed description of each Initial Hotel's competitive position in its market. The occupancy, ADR and REVPAR of any Initial Hotel or any hotel property acquired in the future could be materially and adversely affected by the number of competitive hotel properties in its market area. The Company may be competing for investment opportunities with entities that have substantially greater financial resources than the Company. These entities may generally be able to accept more risk than the Company can prudently manage, including risks with respect to the creditworthiness of entities in which investments may be made or risks attendant to a geographic concentration of investments. Competition may generally reduce the number of suitable investment opportunities offered to the Company and increase the bargaining power of property owners seeking to sell. TAX DEPRECIATION The Partnership will acquire all of the equity interests in the Initial Hotels in exchange for cash and equity interests in the Partnership. The Partnership's initial basis for federal income tax purposes in the hotels in which the Partnership acquires equity interests will be a carryover of the basis of the sellers in the hotels on the date of the acquisitions, increased by any gain recognized on the transfers to the Partnership. The Partnership plans to use the Alternative Depreciation System ("ADS") for the buildings and improvements constituting the Initial Hotels. Under ADS, the Partnership generally will depreciate those buildings and improvements (even those acquired with a carryover basis) over a new 40-year recovery period using a straight-line method and a mid-month convention. The depreciation deductions generally will be specially allocated to the Company under Code Section 704(c). THE INTERCOMPANY CONVERTIBLE NOTE The Company will lend approximately $40 million of the net proceeds of the Offering to the Partnership for uses specified under "Use of Proceeds." The loan will be evidenced by the Intercompany Convertible Note, which will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Offering. Interest will accrue at a rate equal to 9.5% per annum, increasing to 9.75% per annum on the third anniversary of the completion of the Offering, and will be payable quarterly. The Intercompany Convertible Note may be prepaid in full, but not in part, at any time. The Company will have the right to convert the Intercompany Convertible Note after the second anniversary of the completion of the Offering, and prior to maturity and in advance of any proposed 64 69 prepayment by the Partnership, into additional equity interests in the Partnership at face value based on the initial offering price of the Common Shares (and assuming that the value of one Partnership Unit equals the value of one Common Share). On conversion of the Intercompany Convertible Note, the Company would receive an additional equity interest in the Partnership of 3.7%, which will reduce the equity interest in the Partnership of the other holders of Units to 14.3%, assuming no other Common Shares or Units were issued prior to that conversion. The Intercompany Convertible Note will be secured by a mortgage on certain of the Initial Hotels and will be subordinated in right of payment to all other indebtedness of the Partnership. The Intercompany Convertible Note will be guaranteed by certain Boykin Group Affiliates and by certain Other Partners of the Contributed Partnerships. The existence of the Intercompany Convertible Note may assist certain of the Partnership's limited partners in continuing the tax deferral inherent in the leveraged assets they will be contributing to the Partnership because, pursuant to Section 752(a) of the Code, any increase in a partner's share of partnership liabilities is treated as a cash contribution by the partner to the partnership, thereby increasing the partner's tax basis in his partnership interest. The Company is unable to predict whether the Intercompany Convertible Note will be converted or when any such conversion would occur. Any determination regarding conversion will be made by the Independent Directors. Although the yield on the Intercompany Convertible Note will initially exceed the yield on the equity in the Partnership, the Company has not relied on the incremental cash flow in setting its initial dividend rate. There should be no negative federal income tax consequences to the shareholders of the Company resulting from the conversion (or lack of conversion) of the Intercompany Convertible Note. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Neither the Company, the Initial Lessee nor the Partnership is currently involved in any material litigation nor, to the Company's knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company, the Initial Lessee or the Partnership. Robert and John Boykin and the other Boykin Group Affiliates holding ownership interests in the Initial Hotels have represented to the Partnership that there is no material litigation threatened against or affecting the Initial Hotels, or threatened against or affecting any Boykin Group Affiliate, in a manner that would have a material adverse effect on the Initial Lessee. POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN ACTIVITIES The following supplements the discussion of the Company's internal growth, acquisition, development and financing strategies set forth in "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies." The Company's policies with respect to those activities and the matters discussed below have been established by the Board of Directors of the Company and may be amended or revised from time to time at the discretion of the Board of Directors without a vote of the shareholders of the Company, except that changes in certain policies with respect to conflicts of interest must be consistent with legal requirements. INVESTMENT POLICIES Investments in Real Estate. The Company may acquire equity interests in hotel properties other than the Initial Hotels through the Partnership or other entities controlled by the Partnership, or through joint ventures or other types of co-ownership. These investments may be subject to existing mortgage financing and other indebtedness that may have priority over the equity interest of the Company. The Company's current policy is to not invest in any one property more than 25% of its total assets at the time of the investment. Investments in Real Estate Mortgages. While the Company will emphasize equity real estate investments, it may invest in mortgage and other real estate interests, including securities of other REITs, and in nonperforming mortgages with the goal of acquiring the underlying property. The Company may invest in participating or convertible mortgages (which are similar to equity participation) if it may benefit from the cash flow or any appreciation in the value of the subject property. The Company does not currently intend to invest in mortgages or securities of other REITs. 65 70 FINANCING While its organizational documents contain no limitation on the amount of debt it may incur, the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors, intends to maintain a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio (measures at the time the debt is incurred) of not more than 45%. The Company may from time to time re-evaluate its debt capitalization policy in light of economic conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market valued of its properties acquisitions, development and expansion opportunities and other factors. Any indebtedness may be incurred through the Partnership or the Company. Indebtedness incurred by the Company may be in the form of bank borrowings, secured or unsecured, and publicly or privately placed debt instruments, the proceeds of which would be loaned or contributed to the Partnership. Indebtedness incurred by the Partnership may be in the form of purchase money obligations to the sellers of properties, publicly or privately placed debt instruments, further borrowings from the Company, or financing from banks, institutional investors or other lenders, any of which indebtedness may be unsecured or may be secured by mortgages or other interests in the property owned by the Partnership. This indebtedness may be recourse to all or any part of the property of the Company or the Partnership, or may be limited to the specific property to which the indebtedness relates. The proceeds from any borrowings by the Company or the Partnership may be used for the payment of distributions or dividends, for working capital, or to refinance existing indebtedness or to finance acquisitions or expansions of properties. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Requirements for Qualification -- Distribution Requirements." If the Board of Directors determines to raise additional equity capital, the Board has the authority, without shareholder approval, to issue additional Common Shares or Preferred Shares or other capital shares of the Company in any manner (and generally on such terms and for such consideration) as it deems appropriate, including in exchange for property. Any such offering might cause a dilution of the existing shareholders' investment in the Company. The Company has obtained the Credit Facility. See "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Financing Strategy" for a description of the terms of the Credit Facility. POLICIES WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN OTHER ACTIVITIES The Company has authority to offer capital shares or other securities and to repurchase or otherwise reacquire its shares or any other securities, and may engage in such activities in the future. As described under "Shares Available for Future Sale," the Company may issue Common Shares to holders of Units in connection with exercise of the Exchange Rights. The Company has not issued Common Shares or any other securities to date, except in connection with the formation of the Company. The Company has no outstanding loans to other entities or persons, including its officers and directors, except for the loan to the Partnership evidenced by the Intercompany Convertible Note, and except as described above under " -- Investment Policies," does not currently intend to make loans to other entities. The Company has not engaged, and does not currently intend to engage, in trading, underwriting or agency distribution or sale of securities of other issuers, and has not invested, and does not currently intend to invest, in the securities of other issuers (other than the Partnership) for the purpose of exercising control. The Company intends to make investments in such a way that it will not be treated as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Company intends to make investments at all times in a manner consistent with the requirements of the Code in order for the Company to qualify as a REIT unless, because of changing circumstances or changes in the Code, in Treasury Regulations or in the interpretations of either, the Company's Board of Directors determines that it is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to qualify as a REIT. CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY Neither the Company's governing instruments nor Company policy prohibit any Company director, officer, security holder or Affiliate from having a pecuniary interest in any investment to be acquired or disposed of by the Company or in any transaction to which the Company is a party or in which it has an interest. The Company's Articles of Incorporation require that a majority of the Company's Board of Directors consist of persons who are not officers or other employees of the Company, Affiliates of the Boykin Group, or 66 71 persons (or members of firms) who directly or indirectly receive substantial fee income from the Company ("Independent Directors"). Determinations to be made on behalf of the Company with respect to relationships or opportunities that represent a conflict of interest for any Company officer or director as such will be subject to the approval of the Independent Directors. See "Risk Factors -- Conflicts of Interest." In addition, Robert and John Boykin and the other Affiliates of the Boykin Group have agreed that they will conduct all of their hotel ownership, development and acquisition activities through the Company, except as described under " -- Excluded Properties." The Company and the Initial Lessee have agreed on certain additional measures that are designed to minimize conflicts of interest between the Initial Lessee and its owners, on one hand, and the Company and its shareholders, on the other. See "Lessees -- The Initial Lessee." The Partnership's partnership agreement requires the Company to resolve in favor of the Company's shareholders any conflict of interest between those shareholders, on one hand, and the limited partners of the Partnership, on the other hand, if the conflict cannot be resolved in a manner not adverse to the interests of either group. The partnership agreement also exonerates the Company from monetary damages for losses sustained, liabilities incurred, or benefits not derived by limited partners in connection with any such resolution, so long as the Company has acted in good faith. THE FORMATION Formation Transactions. The principal transactions in connection with the formation of the Company as a REIT and the acquisition of the Initial Hotels by the Partnership are as follows: - The Company was formed as an Ohio corporation in February 1996 and issued an aggregate of one Common Share to Raymond P. Heitland. - The Company will sell 8,275,000 Common Shares in the Offering. - The Company will contribute approximately $111.6 million of the net proceeds from the Offering to the Partnership in exchange for an approximately 82.0% equity interest in the Partnership. The Company will be the sole general partner of the Partnership. The Company will also lend to the Partnership approximately $40 million of the net proceeds from the Offering in exchange for an interest-bearing note convertible by the Company into equity interests of the Partnership (the "Intercompany Convertible Note"). See "Business and Properties -- The Intercompany Convertible Note." - Entities owned by Robert and John Boykin will form the Initial Lessee as its sole members, and the Initial Lessee will acquire the Boykin Group hotel operation and management business of Boykin Management. Subsidiaries of the Initial Lessee will continue the third-party hotel management, interior design and purchasing services businesses of Boykin Management following the Offering. See "Lessees -- The Initial Lessee." - The Boykin Group Affiliates will (i) cause the Contributed Partnerships to convey certain working capital assets and liabilities to the Initial Lessee; and (ii) together with the Other Partners and certain Boykin Associates, indemnify the Partnership against liabilities of the Contributed Partnerships other than the mortgage indebtedness to be discharged by the Partnership as described herein. - Each Initial Hotel is owned by a Contributed Partnership that comprises other entities and individuals. Through the Contributed Partnerships, Boykin Group Affiliates hold interests in all nine of the Initial Hotels, Boykin Associates hold interests in two of the Initial Hotels, and Other Partners hold interests in five of the Initial Hotels. The Partnership will acquire a 100% ownership interest in all of the Initial Hotels for an aggregate of approximately 1.38 million Units (valued at approximately $27.6 million), approximately $9.1 million in cash, and the repayment of approximately $8.1 million of existing indebtedness on the Initial Hotels, as follows: -- The Partnership will acquire interests in all nine of the Initial Hotels from Boykin Group Affiliates in exchange for approximately 1.21 million Units (valued at approximately $24.2 million), and repayment of a $3.1 million loan made by Boykin Management for the benefit of one of the Initial Hotels (approximately $1.5 million of which the Initial Lessee, as Boykin Management's successor, will in turn repay to a third-party lender, and the balance of which will 67 72 be used to pay income taxes payable as a result of the Formation Transactions or for working capital of the Initial Lessee). -- The Partnership will acquire interests in two of the Initial Hotels from Boykin Associates in exchange for approximately 22,700 Units (valued at approximately $454,000), and $829,000 in cash; -- The Partnership will acquire interests in five of the Initial Hotels from the Other Partners in exchange for approximately 143,800 Units (valued at approximately $2.9 million) and $8.3 million in cash; and -- The Partnership will repay a loan of approximately $5.0 million made by the Other Partners to one of the Initial Hotels. (See "Risk Factors -- Lack of Independent Appraisals and Arm's-Length Negotiations" for a discussion of the valuation matters considered in connection with the Formation Transactions.) - The recipients of Units will have rights (generally not exercisable until the third anniversary of the closing of the Offering in the case of Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Associates) to exchange their Units for cash (the "Exchange Rights"), subject to the Company's right to issue Common Shares for those Units on a one-for-one basis. The Unit recipients will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Company under which any Common Shares so issued may be registered in certain public offerings made by the Company after the transfer restrictions on those Common Shares lapse. Exchange Rights may be exercised before the specified anniversary of the closing of the Offering to the extent necessary to enable the estate of any Unit holder to satisfy estate tax liabilities, subject to the prior approval of the Company's Board of Directors for any exercise that would cause the number of Units exchanged in any 12-month period to exceed five percent of the Units outstanding at the beginning of that period. - The Partnership will use approximately $134.4 million of the funds contributed to it, along with approximately $5 million from the Credit Facility to repay $136.6 million of third-party mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Initial Hotels, and for the payment of formation costs, working capital and other general partnership purposes. - The Partnership will lease each Initial Hotel to the Initial Lessee pursuant to a Percentage Lease. - The Initial Lessee will assume the liquor licenses, franchise agreements, other licenses and permits and certain working capital liabilities of the Initial Hotels. - Robert W. Boykin will become the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and will enter into the employment agreement and be granted the stock options described under "Management -- Employment Agreements" and "Management -- Executive Compensation." The Formation Transactions benefits to the Boykin Group Affiliates, the Boykin Associates and the Other Partners, in addition to those described above, include: (i) increased cash distributions to recipients of Units from the operations of the Initial Hotels, because of the prepayment of mortgage debt; (ii) elimination of approximately $5.3 million of mortgage debt guaranties; (iii) the ability to exchange Units received in the Formation Transactions (as described above) for cash, or at the Company's election, Common Shares with registration rights, which will be more liquid than their interests in the Initial Hotels; (iv) deferral of income tax by contributing their interests in the Contributed Partnerships; (v) repayment from the proceeds of the Offering of $3.1 million of loans made by Boykin Management to one of the Initial Hotels; (vi) realization of an immediate accretion in the net tangible book value of their investment in the Partnership of $37.62 per Unit (an aggregate accretion of $51.8 million); and (vii) receipt by Robert W.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE The Compensation Committee will consist of five Independent Directors, will determine compensation for senior management, advise the Board of Directors on the adoption and administration of employee benefit and compensation plans, and administer the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan. LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS The Ohio Revised Code provides, with certain limited exceptions, that a director may be held liable in damages for his act or omission as a director only if it is proved by clear and convincing evidence that he undertook the act or omission with deliberate intent to cause injury to the corporation or with reckless disregard for its best interest. The Ohio Revised Code authorizes Ohio corporations to indemnify officers and directors from liability if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by the officer or director to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal actions, if the officer or director had no reason to believe his action was unlawful. In the case of an action by or on behalf of a corporation, indemnification may not be made (i) if the person seeking indemnification is adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct, unless the court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification or (ii) if liability asserted against such person concerns certain unlawful distributions. The indemnification provisions of the Ohio Code require indemnification if a director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding that he was a party to by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the corporation. The indemnification authorized under Ohio law is not exclusive and is in addition to any other rights granted to officers and directors under the articles of incorporation or code of regulations of the corporation or any agreement between officers and directors and the corporation. A corporation may purchase and maintain 70 75 insurance or furnish similar protection on behalf of any officer or director against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in his capacity, or arising out of the status, as an officer or director, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the Ohio Code. The Company's Code of Regulations provides for the indemnification of directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted by Ohio law as authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company, and for the advancement of expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding that he was a party to by reason of the fact that he is or was a director of the Company upon the receipt of an undertaking to repay such amount unless it is ultimately determined that the director is entitled to indemnification. The Company is seeking to obtain an insurance policy which will insure the officers and directors of the Company against claims arising out of alleged wrongful acts by such persons in their respective capacities as officers and directors of the Company. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The Company was incorporated in Ohio on February 8, 1996, and did not pay any compensation to its officers or directors prior to the Offering. The following table sets forth the annual base compensation expected to be paid for the year ending December 31, 1996, to the Chief Executive Officer and to each of the other executive officers of the Company whose annual salary will exceed $100,000.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS Robert W. Boykin, Raymond P. Heitland and Mark L. Bishop have entered into employment contracts with the Company. Mr. Boykin's agreement provides for an initial three year term that is automatically extended for an additional year at the end of each year of the agreement, subject to the right of either party to terminate the agreement by giving two years' prior written notice. The agreements for Messrs. Heitland and Bishop provide for an initial one year term that is automatically extended for an additional year at the end of each year of the agreement, subject to the right of either party to terminate the agreement by giving six months' prior written notice. Mr. Boykin will also be entitled to a bonus of from 10% to 90% of his annual base salary, and Messrs. Heitland and Bishop will be entitled to bonuses of from 5% to 45% of their annual base salaries, if Funds From Operations per Common Share for any year exceed, by 5% to 20% or more, the Funds From Operations per Common Share for the immediately preceding year. For purposes of the bonuses payable for 1996, the Compensation Committee of the Board will calculate appropriate prorated amounts. Messrs. Boykin, Heitland and Bishop will also be granted certain options to purchase Common Shares in connection with the Offering. See "-- Long-Term Incentive Plan." Each agreement provides that the employee will not compete with the Company in the ownership, acquisition or development of hotels during his employment or at any time during a period of up to two years immediately following the termination of his employment. Further, each agreement provides that upon (i) the termination of the employee's employment by the Company other than for "cause" (as defined in the employment contracts) or by the employee for certain actions of the Company, such as effecting a material adverse change in the employee's duties and responsibilities, or (ii) a "change in control" of the Company (as defined in the employment contracts), the employee will be entitled to all of the compensation and benefits payable to him under the employment contract for the remainder of the stated term of the employment contract. 71 76 REGISTRATION RIGHTS The Company has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with certain Boykin Group Affiliates and other partners of the Contributed Partnerships pursuant to which the Company has granted those individuals and entities certain rights, on exchange of their Units for Common Shares, to register Common Shares in public offerings initiated by the Company after the transfer restrictions on the Units and Common Shares held by those individuals and entities lapse. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS The Company intends to pay its Independent Directors an annual fee of $16,000 and a fee of $1,000 for each directors' meeting and each committee meeting attended. Each director may elect to receive his compensation in the form of grants of Common Shares. No other directors will receive directors' fees. Upon completion of the Offering, each Independent Director will receive an option for 5,000 Common Shares exercisable at the initial public offering price of the Common Shares, which option will vest fully within the first two years of issuance and will have a term of ten years. DIRECTORS' DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN The purpose of the Company's Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Plan") is to assist it in attracting and retaining persons of competence and stature to serve as outside directors by giving them the option to defer receipt of the fees payable to them by the Company for their services as directors. A director is eligible to participate in the Deferred Plan if he or she receives fees for services as a director and is not employed by the Company. The Deferred Plan is administered by Company officers and directors who are (i) appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company and (ii) not eligible to participate in the Deferred Plan. The Deferred Plan is applicable to all director's fees payable with respect to periods commencing on or after October 1, 1996. The value of amounts credited to a director in the Deferred Plan increases or decreases based on the market value of the Company's Common Shares plus the value of dividends or other distributions on the Company's Common Shares. Distribution of amounts credited to a director in the Deferred Plan commences (i) on a date elected by the director, provided that the date is not earlier than the January 1 following the year in which the director attains age 55, and not later than the January 1 following the year in which the director attains age 72, or (ii) within ninety (90) days after the date of the director's death or disability. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN The purpose of the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by enabling it to attract, retain and reward key employees of the Company and its affiliates and to strengthen the mutuality of interest between such key employees and the Company's shareholders. Grants of incentive or nonqualified share options, restricted shares, deferred shares, share purchase rights, share appreciation rights in tandem with options ("SARs"), other share-based awards, or any combination thereof, may be made under the Plan. Officers and key employees who are responsible for or contribute to the management, growth or profitability of the business of the Company and its affiliates are eligible for grants and awards under the Plan. The Compensation Committee will administer the Plan and determine the type, amount and timing of grants and awards. The members of the Compensation Committee are not eligible to participate in the Plan. The Company has reserved 1,000,000 Common Shares for issuance under the Plan. No Participant in the Plan may be granted stock options or other share awards in any calendar year for more than 300,000 shares. Upon the Closing, Robert W. Boykin, Raymond P. Heitland and Mark L. Bishop will be granted options to purchase 250,000, 75,000 and 75,000 shares, respectively, under the Plan. The share limitations, shares reserved and the terms of outstanding awards will be adjusted, as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate, in the event of a share dividend, split or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the shares. Share Options and Tandem SARs. The term of each option granted under the Plan will not exceed 10 years from the date of grant, and the exercise price of share options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) of the shares on the date the option is granted. The Compensation 72 77 Committee may grant tandem SARs to any person granted an option under the Plan. Each tandem SAR will represent the right to receive, in cash or shares as the Compensation Committee determines, a distribution in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the option shares (to which the SAR corresponds) on the date of exercise over the exercise price for those shares. Each tandem SAR expires at the same time as its corresponding option. The exercise of an option will result in an immediate forfeiture of its corresponding SAR, and the exercise of an SAR will cause an immediate forfeiture of its corresponding option. The Plan provides that all options and tandem SARs will vest on a change in control (as defined in the Plan) of the Company. Share Awards. The Compensation Committee may award Common Shares under the Long-Term Incentive Plan and may place restrictions on the transfer or defer the date of receipt of those shares. Each award will specify any applicable restrictions or deferral date, the duration of those restrictions, and the time at which the restrictions lapse. Participants will be required to deposit shares with the Company during the period of any restrictions. The Compensation Committee may also grant share purchase rights for which the purchase price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of grant. Other Share-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant other awards of shares and other awards that are valued or otherwise based on the Company's Common Shares. Miscellaneous. The Plan provides for vesting, exercise or forfeiture of rights granted under the Plan on retirement, death, disability, termination of employment or a change of control. The Board of Directors may modify, suspend or terminate the Plan as long as it does not impair the rights thereunder of any participant. Under applicable law, the holders of Common Shares must approve any increase in the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, any change in the classes of employees eligible to participate in the Plan and any material increase in the benefits accruing to participants.

Joseph P. Berardi has served as Senior Vice President, Architecture and Construction of Boykin Management since 1981. The Initial Lessee intends to develop incentive compensation plans for its hotel-level and corporate-level senior executives which tie such compensation in part to the performance of the Company and in part to the performance of the Initial Hotels. Such plans may include awards of Company shares, options and other similar incentives. CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS Formation Transactions. In connection with the formation of the Company in February 1996, Raymond P. Heitland acquired one Common Share for a price of $100. In connection with the Formation Transactions, all of the equity interests in the Contributed Partnerships (which own the Initial Hotels) will be transferred to the Partnership in exchange for an aggregate of 1,378,000 Units and $9.1 million in cash. William, Robert and John Boykin will receive, either directly or indirectly through entities that they own and control, approximately 150,000, 577,112 and 484,381 Units, respectively, for their ownership interests in the Contributed Partnerships. These Units in the aggregate will represent approximately 12.6% of the equity interest in the Partnership. The Contributed Partnership that owned the Lake Norman Initial Hotels acquired those properties in February 1996. The aggregate purchase price for the properties was approximately $10 million. Prior to the Formation Transactions, Robert and John Boykin, together, held a 46% interest and two of the Other Partners, together, held a 54% interest, in that Contributed Partnership. The aggregate value of the Units distributed and mortgage indebtedness paid by the Partnership in the Formation Transactions with respect to the Lake Norman Hotels will be approximately $13.3 million. See "The Formation." The Partnership will use approximately $8.1 million of the net proceeds of the Offering to repay loans made to the Contributed Partnerships by certain partners of the Contributed Partnerships (the "Partner Loans"). Approximately $3.1 million of the Partner Loans is payable to Boykin Management. The Initial Lessee, as the successor to Boykin Management, will use those funds to retire third party bank indebtedness incurred by it and to pay income taxes or meet working capital needs. Approximately $5.3 million of the mortgage indebtedness to be paid by the Partnership from the net proceeds of the Offering is guaranteed by Boykin Group Affiliates, including William, Robert and John Boykin. Transactions with the Initial Lessee. The Initial Lessee, which is indirectly owned by Robert and John Boykin, will enter into the Percentage Leases with the Partnership and will be obligated to pay rent thereunder. The Initial Lessee will acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities of the Initial Hotels, including the Franchise Agreements of the Initial Hotels. See "Lessees -- The Initial Lessee" and "The Formation." The Initial Lessee manages the Initial Hotels under the Percentage Leases. See "Business and Properties -- Percentage Leases." Employment Arrangements. The Company has entered into employment agreements with, and granted certain options to, Robert W. Boykin, Raymond P. Heitland and Mark L. Bishop. The agreement for Robert W. Boykin provides for an initial three year term and the agreements for Mr. Heitland and Mr. Bishop provide for an initial term of one year. See "Management -- Employment Contracts" and "-- Long-Term Incentive Plan." Fees for Services and Other Transactions. The Initial Hotels paid a Boykin Group Affiliate $148,000 and $143,000 for purchasing and design services rendered for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995, 74 79 respectively. The Initial Hotels purchased hotel furnishings through a Boykin Group Affiliate in the amounts of $1.8 million and $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1994 and the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively. These Boykin Group Affiliates will become subsidiaries of the Initial Lessee at the time of the Offering, and these subsidiaries will perform such purchasing and design services for the Initial Hotels without charge to the Company. See "Business and Properties -- The Percentage Leases." The Contributed Partnerships were indebted to Boykin Management and certain other Boykin Group Affiliates in the aggregate amounts of $4.0 million and $3.8 million at December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996, respectively, for management fees, design fees, certain loan guarantee fees and loans payable, and certain other amounts including reimbursable expenses. Buffalo Property. Robert and John Boykin hold interests in a joint venture formed to purchase, other than for hotel purposes, a six-acre parcel in the immediate vicinity of the Buffalo Marriott Hotel. The Company and the joint venture have entered into an agreement that provides for certain cross-easements between the properties and provides that the land will contain specific deed restrictions to prevent the development of any hotel thereon. Relationship with Counsel. Albert T. Adams, a proposed director of the Company, is a partner in Baker & Hostetler, which provides legal services to the Boykin Group and various Boykin Group Affiliates and is serving as counsel to the Company in connection with the Offering. See "Legal Matters." PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of Common Shares and Units by each director and proposed director of the Company, by each named executive officer of the Company, by all directors, officers and proposed directors and officers of the Company as a group, and by each person who is expected to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the outstanding Common Shares immediately following the completion of the Offering. The table assumes that the Formation Transactions and the Offering are completed and that the Underwriters' over-allotment option will not be exercised. Each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all Common Shares or Units shown as beneficially owned by that person, except as otherwise set forth in the notes to the table.

(2) None of the persons listed will own any Common Shares immediately following the completion of the Offering. All Units are exchangeable for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Unit for each Common Share (subject to the Company's right to elect to instead pay cash for those Units), but the Boykin Group Affiliates and Boykin Associates who receive Units in connection with the formation generally may not exchange those Units until the third anniversary of the Offering. If all Units were exchanged for Common Shares (without regard to the Ownership Limit) these shares would constitute approximately 14.3% of the then outstanding Common Shares. Units are subject to certain restrictions on transfer. (3) Includes 419,998 Units held by other Boykin Group Affiliates. Does not include options for 300,000 shares. (4) Includes 359,943 Units held by other Boykin Group Affiliates. (5) On a fully-diluted basis, assuming Units are exchanged for Common Shares at the exchange rate of one Unit for each Common Share without regard to the Ownership Limit. It is not anticipated that the Ownership Limit will be waived. CAPITAL STOCK OF THE COMPANY GENERAL The Company was formed as an Ohio corporation on the filing of its Articles of Incorporation on February 8, 1996. The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 40 million Common Shares, without par value, of which one share is issued and outstanding. In addition, up to 1 million Common Shares have been reserved for issuance under the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan and an additional 25,000 Common Shares will be reserved for issuance on exercise of options to be granted to the Independent Directors. Following completion of the Offering, 8,275,000 Common Shares will be issued and outstanding (9,516,250 if the Underwriters' overallotment option is exercised in full). There is no established trading market for the Common Shares. The Common Shares have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, under the symbol "BOY." National City Bank, Cleveland, Ohio, will act as transfer agent and registrar for the Common Shares. The following description of the Company's capital shares and of certain provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation is a summary of and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles of Incorporation, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. See "Additional Information." COMMON SHARES Holders of the Company's Common Shares are entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, out of funds legally available therefor. The holders of Common Shares, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, are entitled to share ratably in any assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities of the Company and all preferences of the holders of any outstanding preferred shares. The Common Shares possess ordinary voting rights, each share entitling the holder thereof to one vote. Holders of Common Shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors and do not have preemptive rights. All of the Company's Common Shares now outstanding are, and the Common Shares offered hereby when issued and sold to the Underwriters in the manner described in this Prospectus will be, fully paid and nonassessable. PREFERRED SHARES The Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of two classes of preferred shares (collectively, the "Preferred Shares"), each in one or more series, to establish the number of shares in each series and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights (other than voting rights) of each series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon. An aggregate of 10 million Preferred Shares are authorized. Because the Board of Directors has the power to establish the preferences and rights of each series of Preferred Shares, the Board of Directors may afford the holders of any series of Preferred Shares preferences, powers and rights senior to the rights of holders of Common Shares. The issuance of Preferred Shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. The Company has no present intention to issue Preferred Shares. 76 81 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER For the Company to qualify as a REIT under the Code, it must meet certain requirements concerning the ownership of its outstanding shares. Specifically, not more than 50% in value of the Company's outstanding shares may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year (other than the first year of the Company's existence) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year, and the Company must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year (other than that first year) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Requirements for Qualification." Because the Company expects to qualify as a REIT, the Articles of Incorporation limit the acquisition of shares of the Company's capital stock (the "Ownership Limit"). The Ownership Limit provides that, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Articles of Incorporation, no person may own, or be deemed to own, by vote or value, by virtue of the applicable attribution provisions of the Code, more than 9.0% of each class of the outstanding shares of the Company. The Board of Directors may, but is not required to, waive the Ownership Limit if it determines that greater ownership will not jeopardize the Company's status as a REIT. As a condition of that waiver, the Board of Directors may require opinions of counsel satisfactory to it and undertakings or representations from the applicant with respect to preserving the REIT status of the Company. If any purported transfer of capital shares of the Company or any other event would otherwise result in any person or entity violating the Ownership Limit or would cause the Company to be beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons, that transfer will be void and of no force or effect as to the number of shares in excess of the Ownership Limit, and the purported transferee (the "Prohibited Transferee") will acquire no right or interest (or, in the case of any event other than a purported transfer, the person or entity holding record title to shares in excess of the Ownership Limit (the "Prohibited Owner") will cease to own any right or interest) in the excess shares. In addition, if any purported transfer of shares of the Company or any other event would cause the Company to become "closely held" under the Code or otherwise to fail to qualify as a REIT under the Code, that transfer will be void and of no force or effect as to the number of shares in excess of the number that could have been transferred without that result, and the Prohibited Transferee will acquire no right or interest (or, in the case of any event other than a transfer, the Prohibited Owner will cease to own any right or interest) in the excess shares. Also, if any purported transfer of shares of the Company or any other event would otherwise cause the Company to own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable attribution provisions of the Code, 10% or more, by vote or value, of the ownership interests in the Initial Lessee or in any sublessee, that transfer or event will be void and of no force or effect as to the number of shares in excess of the number that could have been transferred or affected by that event without that result, and the Prohibited Transferee will acquire no right or interest (or, in the case of any event other than a transfer, the Prohibited Owner will cease to own any right or interest) in the excess shares. Any excess shares arising from a prohibited transfer described above will be transferred automatically to a trust, the beneficiary of which will be a qualified charitable organization selected by the Company (the "Beneficiary"). The trustee of the trust, who will be designated by the Company and be unaffiliated with the Company and any Prohibited Owner, will be empowered to sell the excess shares to a qualified person or entity and to distribute to the applicable Prohibited Transferee an amount equal to the lesser of the price paid by the Prohibited Transferee for those excess shares or the sale proceeds received for those shares by the trust. The trustee will be empowered to sell any excess shares resulting from any event other than a transfer, or from a transfer for no consideration, to a qualified person or entity and distribute to the applicable Prohibited Owner an amount equal to the lesser of the fair market value of those excess shares on the date of the triggering event or the sale proceeds received by the trust for those excess shares. Prior to a sale of any excess shares by the trust, the trustee will be entitled to receive, in trust for the benefit of the Beneficiary, all dividends and other distributions paid by the Company with respect to those shares, and also will be entitled to exercise all voting rights with respect to those shares. All certificates representing shares of the Company will bear a legend referring to the restrictions described above. Every owner of more than 5% (or such lower percentage as may be required by the Code or Treasury Regulations) of the outstanding shares of the Company must file no later than January 30 of each year a 77 82 written notice with the Company containing the information specified in the Articles of Incorporation. In addition, each shareholder will be required, upon demand, to disclose to the Company in writing such information as the Company may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of that shareholder's actual and constructive ownership on the Company's status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the Ownership Limit. The Ownership Limit may have the effect of precluding an acquisition of control of the Company without approval of the Board of Directors. OHIO ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS The Company has elected not to be subject to Ohio's "Merger Moratorium" statute (Chapter 1704 of the Ohio Revised Code) or its "Control Share Acquisition" act (Section 1701.831 of the Ohio Revised Code), in light of the substantial share transfer restrictions included in the Company's Articles of Incorporation. Section 1707.041 of the Ohio Revised Code, which regulates certain "control bids" for Ohio corporations, does not contain an election provision and remains applicable to the Company. THE PARTNERSHIP The following summary of the Partnership Agreement, and the descriptions of certain provisions thereof set forth elsewhere in this Prospectus, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Partnership Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. MANAGEMENT The Partnership is an Ohio limited partnership. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Company, as the sole general partner of the Partnership (the "General Partner"), will have full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the management and control of the Partnership, and the limited partners of the Partnership (the "Limited Partners") will have no authority to transact business for, or to participate in the management activities or decisions of, the Partnership. However, any amendment to the Partnership Agreement that would (i) seek to impose personal liability on the Limited Partners; (ii) affect the Exchange Rights; or (iii) impose on the Limited Partners any obligation to make additional contributions to the capital of the Partnership, would require the consent of Limited Partners holding at least 66 2/3% of the limited partnership interests. The Partnership has been formed to own the Initial Hotels and to own all other properties acquired by the Company. Accordingly, the income and expenses of the Company that will be reflected in the financial information to be provided to the shareholders will be the income and expenses of the Partnership, adjusted (on a pro forma basis) to deduct the minority interest of the Limited Partners. Distributions from the Partnership will be made at the discretion of the Company as the sole general partner of the Partnership. See "Distributions" for a discussion of the factors relevant to the determination of those distributions. All distributions from the Partnership will be made to the Company and the Limited Partners concurrently, and will be allocated to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Limited Partners, on the other, on a pro rata basis by reference to their respective percentage interests in the Partnership. TRANSFERABILITY OF INTERESTS The Company may not voluntarily withdraw from the Partnership or transfer or assign its interest in the Partnership unless the transaction in which the withdrawal or transfer occurs results in the Limited Partners receiving property in an amount equal to the amount they would have received had they exercised their Exchange Rights immediately prior to the transaction, or unless the successor to the Company contributes substantially all of its assets to the Partnership in return for an interest in the Partnership. With certain limited exceptions, the Limited Partners may not transfer their interests in the Partnership without the consent of the Company. The Company may not consent to any transfer that would cause the Partnership to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS The Company will contribute or loan to the Partnership all of the net proceeds of the Offering as its initial capital contribution or pursuant to the Intercompany Convertible Note. The Limited Partners will contribute to the Partnership the Limited Partners' proportionate ownership interests in the Initial Hotels as their initial 78 83 capital contributions. The value of each Limited Partner's capital contribution will equal its pro rata share of the price paid by the Partnership to acquire the Contributed Partnerships. The Partnership Agreement provides that if the Partnership requires additional funds at any time or from time to time in excess of funds available to the Partnership from borrowings or capital contributions, the Company may borrow those funds from a financial institution or other lender and lend those funds to the Partnership on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Company's borrowing of the funds. As an alternative to borrowing funds required by the Partnership, the Company may contribute the amount of the required funds as an additional capital contribution to the Partnership. If the Company so contributes additional capital, the Company's partnership interest in the Partnership will be increased on a proportionate basis based on the amount of the additional capital contributions and the value of the Partnership at the time of the contributions. If the Company issues Preferred Shares, it will contribute the proceeds therefrom to the Partnership in exchange for Partnership interests that have the same terms as those Preferred Shares. The partnership interests of the Limited Partners will be correspondingly decreased or adjusted in connection with any such contribution. EXCHANGE RIGHTS Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Limited Partners will receive the Exchange Rights, which will enable them to cause the Partnership to purchase their Units for cash. The Exchange Rights may be exercised by Limited Partners who are Boykin Group Affiliates or Boykin Associates at any time after the third anniversary of the closing of the Offering, and by the Other Partners, who hold an aggregate of 1.5% of the Units, at any time after the closing of the Offering, in whole or in part. The amount of cash to be received by a Limited Partner exercising exchange rights will be determined by mathematically converting the Limited Partner's Units to a number of Common Shares at a conversion rate of one Common Share for each Unit held by that Limited Partner and then multiplying the resulting number of Common Shares by the average daily market price of a Common Share for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date the Company receives the applicable notice of exchange from that Limited Partner. The Company may elect to assume and directly satisfy an Exchange Right by paying cash to the Limited Partner or by delivering Common Shares for the exchanged Units on a one-for-one basis. If the Company elects to pay cash in satisfaction of an Exchange Right, the amount payable by the Company is due within one year after the exercise of the right, subject to an interest charge equal to the lower of the Company's current annual dividend rate or 8.0% per annum. The number of shares into which Units are converted for purposes of determining the cash payable on exercise of Exchange Rights will be adjusted on the occurrence of stock splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro rata share transactions that otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the Limited Partners or the shareholders of the Company. TAX MATTERS; PROFITS AND LOSSES Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Company will be the tax matters partner of the Partnership and, as such, will have authority to make tax elections under the Code on behalf of the Partnership. Profit and loss of the Partnership generally will be allocated among the partners in accordance with their respective interests in the Partnership, except to the extent that the Partnership is required pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code to allocate depreciation deductions relating to, or gain on sale of, the Initial Hotels in a different manner. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Tax Aspects of the Company's Investment in the Partnership -- Tax Allocations With Respect to the Properties." OPERATIONS The Partnership Agreement requires that the Partnership be operated in a manner that will enable the Company to satisfy the requirements for being classified as a REIT and to avoid any federal income tax liability. DISTRIBUTIONS The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership will make cash distributions from cash from operations (including net sale or refinancing proceeds, but excluding net proceeds from the sale of the Partnership's property in connection with the liquidation of the Partnership) quarterly, in amounts determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests 79 84 in the Partnership. Upon liquidation of the Partnership, after payment of, or adequate provision for, debts and obligations of the Partnership, including any partner loans, any remaining assets of the Partnership will be distributed to all partners with positive capital accounts in accordance with their respective positive capital account balances. If the Company has a negative balance in its capital account following a liquidation of the Partnership, it will be obligated to contribute cash to the Partnership equal to the negative balance in its capital account. TERM The Partnership will continue until December 31, 2050, or until sooner dissolved on (i) the bankruptcy, dissolution or withdrawal of the Company (unless the Limited Partners elect to continue the Partnership); (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Partnership; (iii) the redemption of all limited partnership interests in the Partnership (other than those held by the Company, if any); or (iv) the election of the General Partner. SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE On the completion of the Offering, the Company will have 8,275,000 Common Shares outstanding (without taking into account any options granted to employees or directors of the Company and assuming no exercise of the Underwriters' overallotment option or exchange of Units). All of the Common Shares issued in the Offering will be freely tradeable, by persons other than "affiliates" of the Company, without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"). All of the outstanding Units will be "restricted" securities within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be sold under the Securities Act unless an exemption from registration is available, including exemptions contained in Rule 144. Prior to the date of this Prospectus, there has been no public market for the Common Shares. Trading of the Common Shares is expected to commence following the completion of the Offering. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares or the availability of shares for future sale will have on the market price prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of Common Shares (including shares issued on the exercise of options), or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. The holders of all of the Common Shares and Units outstanding immediately prior to the Offering have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Shares or Units for a period of one year after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Representatives. See "Underwriting." FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS The following discussion summarizes the federal income tax considerations that materially affect a prospective shareholder who is a U.S. citizen or resident or a tax-exempt organization (including individual retirement accounts). The discussion is general in nature and not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations, nor does the discussion give a detailed description of any state, local, or foreign tax considerations. The discussion does not address all aspects of federal income tax law that may be relevant to a prospective shareholder of the Company in light of his or her particular circumstances or to certain types of shareholders (including insurance companies, financial institutions or broker-dealers, and (except to the limited extent discussed herein) foreign corporations and persons who are not citizens or resident of the United States) subject to special treatment under the federal income tax laws. THIS DISCUSSION IS NOT INTENDED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR CAREFUL TAX PLANNING AND EACH PROSPECTIVE SHAREHOLDER OF THE COMPANY IS ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HIM OR HER OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND SALE OF COMMON SHARES IN AN ENTITY ELECTING TO BE TAXED AS A REIT, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, SALE, AND ELECTION AND OF POTENTIAL CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS. 80 85 GENERAL The Company expects that it will be organized and will operate in such a manner so as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 1996 and the Company intends to operate in such a manner in the future. No assurance can be given, however, that the Company will operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. Baker & Hostetler, counsel to the Company ("Counsel"), has rendered its opinion, subject to certain assumptions and conditioned upon certain factual representations made by the Company, that (i) the Company will be organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code and that the method of operation of the Company and the Partnership will permit the Company to continue to so qualify for its current and future taxable years; (ii) the Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes; and (iii) the summary of federal income tax considerations set forth in this Prospectus accurately summarizes the federal income tax considerations that are likely to be material to a holder of Common Shares. Unlike a tax ruling, an opinion of counsel is not binding on the IRS, and no assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge the status of the Company as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. With respect to Counsel's opinion relating to the qualification of the Company as a REIT, it should be noted that the Company's continued qualification as a REIT in current and future taxable years will depend upon whether the Company and the Partnership continue to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code (discussed below). Counsel will not review compliance with these tests on a periodic or continuing basis. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of the Company's operations for the current or future taxable years will satisfy such requirements. See "Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Failure to Qualify." The opinions and discussion herein are based upon the Code, as currently in effect, applicable Treasury Regulations adopted thereunder, reported judicial decisions, and IRS rulings, all as of the date hereof and certain factual representations and assumptions made by the Company concerning the organization and proposed operation of the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that the legal authorities on which such opinions and this discussion are based will not change, perhaps retroactively, that the Company's representations and factual assumptions underlying this discussion will be accurate, or that there will not be a change in circumstances of the Company that would affect such opinions or this discussion. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the conclusion of Counsel's opinions. TAXATION OF THE COMPANY AS A REIT If the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT and distributes to its shareholders at least 95% of its REIT taxable income, it generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on the portion of its ordinary income or capital gain that is timely distributed to its shareholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the "double taxation" (at the corporate and shareholder levels) that generally results from investment in a corporation. If the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT, it would be taxed at rates applicable to corporations on all of its income, whether or not distributed to its shareholders. Even if the Company qualifies as a REIT, it may be subject to federal income or excise tax as follows: (i) The Company will be taxed at regular corporate rates on REIT taxable income and net capital gains not distributed to its shareholders; (ii) Under certain circumstances, the Company may be subject to the "alternative minimum tax" on its items of tax preference, if any; (iii) If the Company has net income from prohibited transactions (which are, in general, certain sales or other dispositions of property, other than foreclosure property, held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business) such income will be subject to a 100% tax; (iv) If the Company should fail to satisfy the 75% gross income test or the 95% gross income test (as discussed below), and has nonetheless maintained its qualification as a REIT because certain other requirements have been met, it will be subject to a 100% tax on the net income attributable to the greater of the amount by which the Company fails the 75% or 95% test, multiplied by a fraction intended to reflect the Company's profitability; 81 86 (v) If the Company should fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of (A) 85% of its REIT ordinary income for such year, (B) 95% of its REIT capital gain net income for such year and (C) any undistributed taxable income from prior years, it would be subject to a 4% excise tax on the excess of such required distribution over the amounts actually distributed; (vi) If the Company has (A) net income from the sale or other disposition of "foreclosure property" (which is, in general, property acquired by the Company by foreclosure or otherwise on default on a loan secured by the property) which is held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business or (B) other nonqualifying income from foreclosure property, it will be subject to tax on such income at the highest corporate rate; and (vii) If the Company acquires assets from a C corporation (i.e., generally a corporation subject to tax at the corporate level) in a transaction in which the bases of the acquired assets in the Company's hands are determined by reference to the bases of the assets (or any other property) in the hands of the C corporation, and the Company recognizes net gain on the disposition of such assets in any taxable year during the 10-year period (the "Restriction Period") beginning on the date on which such assets were acquired by the Company then, pursuant to guidelines issued by the IRS, the excess of the fair market value of such property at the beginning of the applicable Restriction Period over the Company's adjusted basis in such property as of the beginning of such Restriction Period will be subject to a tax at the highest regular corporate rate. REQUIREMENTS FOR QUALIFICATION AS A REIT General. The Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association: (i) which is managed by one or more trustees or directors; (ii) the beneficial ownership of which is evidenced by transferable shares or by transferable certificates of beneficial interest; (iii) which would be taxable as a domestic corporation but for Sections 856 through 859 of the Code; (iv) which is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to certain provisions of the Code; (v) which has the calendar year as its taxable year; (vi) the beneficial ownership of which is held by 100 or more persons; (vii) during the last half of each taxable year not more than 50% in value of the outstanding shares of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain exempt entities); (viii) which makes an election to be a REIT (or made such an election in a previous taxable year that is still valid) and satisfies all relevant filing and other administrative requirements that must be met in order to maintain REIT status; and (ix) which meets certain income and asset tests, described below. Conditions (i) through (v), inclusive, must be met during the entire taxable year and condition (vi) must be met during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months. However, conditions (vi) and (vii) will not apply until after the first taxable year for which an election is made to be taxed as a REIT. The Company's taxable year will be the calendar year. Following the consummation of this Offering, the Company will have satisfied the share ownership requirements set forth in (vi) and (vii) above (respectively, the "100 shareholder requirement" and "five or fewer requirement"). In order to ensure continuing compliance with the share ownership requirements, the Company has placed certain restrictions on the transfer of its Common Shares to prevent further concentration of share ownership. See "Capital Stock of the Company -- Restrictions on Transfer." Moreover, to evidence compliance with these requirements, the Company must maintain records which 82 87 disclose the actual ownership of its outstanding Common Shares. In fulfilling its obligation to maintain these records, the Company must, and will, demand written statements each year from the record holders of designated percentages of its Common Shares disclosing the actual owners of such Common Shares. A list of those persons failing or refusing to comply with such demand must be maintained as a part of the Company's records. A shareholder failing or refusing to comply with the Company's written demand must submit with his or her tax return a similar statement and certain other information. Asset Tests. In order for the Company to maintain its qualification as a REIT, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, it must satisfy three tests relating to the nature of its assets: (i) At least 75% of the value of the Company's total assets must be represented by any combination of interests in real property, interests in mortgages on real property, shares in other REITs, cash, cash items, and certain government securities. (ii) Not more than 25% of the Company's total assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset class. (iii) Of the investments included in the 25% asset class, the value of any one issuer's securities owned by the Company may not exceed 5% of the value of the Company's total assets, and the Company may not own more than 10% of any one issuer's outstanding voting securities (excluding securities of a qualified REIT subsidiary (as defined in the Code) or another REIT). Where the Company owns an interest in a partnership, it will be treated for purposes of the asset tests as owning a proportionate part of the partnership's assets. See "-- Tax Aspects of the Company's Investment in the Partnership -- General." The Company's investment in the Initial Hotels through its interest in the Partnership will constitute qualified assets for purposes of the 75% asset test. As such, the Company expects that more than 75% of the value of its assets will be real estate assets. The Company does not expect to hold any securities representing more than 10% of any one issuer's voting securities nor does the Company expect to hold securities of any one issuer exceeding 5% of the value of the Company's gross assets. If the Company inadvertently fails one or more of the asset tests at the end of a calendar quarter, such a failure would not cause it to lose its REIT status, provided that (i) it satisfied all of the asset tests at the close of a preceding calendar quarter, and (ii) the discrepancy between the values of the Company's assets and the standards imposed by the asset test either did not exist immediately after the acquisition of any particular asset or was not wholly or partly caused by such an acquisition. If the condition described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence was not satisfied, the Company could still avoid disqualification by eliminating any discrepancy within 30 days after the close of the calendar quarter in which it arose. Income Tests. In order for the Company to maintain its qualification as a REIT, it must satisfy three separate percentage tests relating to the source of its gross income in each taxable year. For purposes of these tests, where the Company invests in a partnership, the Company will be treated as receiving its proportionate share of the gross income of the partnership, and such gross income will retain the same character in the hands of the Company as it had in the hands of the partnership. See "-- Tax Aspects of the Company's Investment in the Partnership -- General." (i) The 75% Test. At least 75% of the Company's gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions) for each taxable year must be derived from specified real estate sources, including "rents from real property" and interest and certain other income earned from mortgages on real property, gain from the sale of real property or mortgages (other than in prohibited transactions) or income from qualified types of temporary investments. (ii) The 95% Test. At least 95% of the Company's gross income (excluding gross income from prohibited transactions) for each taxable year must be derived from the same items which qualify under the 75% income test or from dividends, interest and gain from the sale or disposition of stock or securities, or from any combination of the foregoing. 83 88 (iii) The 30% Test. Less than 30% of the Company's gross income (including gross income from prohibited transactions) for each taxable year must be derived from a gain in connection with the sale or other disposition of stock or securities held for less than one year, property in a prohibited transaction and real property held for less than four years (other than involuntary conversions and foreclosure property). Rents received by the Company will qualify as "rents from real property" for purposes of the 75% and 95% income tests if the following requirements are met. (i) The amount of rent received must generally not be based in whole or in part on the income or profits derived by any person from such property. However, amounts received or accrued generally will not be excluded from the term "rents from real property" solely by reason of being based on a fixed percentage or percentages of receipts or sales, or if they are based on the net income or profits of the tenant and the tenant derives substantially all of its income with respect to such property from the leasing or subleasing of substantially all of such property and such tenant receives from subtenants only amounts which would be treated as rents from real property if received directly by the Company. (ii) Rents must not be received from a tenant in which the Company or a direct or indirect owner of 10% or more of the Company, owns directly or constructively a 10% or greater interest in the assets or net profits of such tenant (a "Related Party Tenant"). (iii) The Company must not operate or manage its property or furnish or render directly services to its tenants unless such services are of a type that a tax-exempt organization can provide its tenants without causing its rental income to be unrelated business taxable income under the Code ("Qualifying Services"). If such services are not Qualifying Services, such services must be rendered by an "independent contractor" that is adequately compensated and from whom the Company derives no income. Receipts for services furnished (whether or not rendered by an independent contractor) that are not customarily provided to tenants of properties of a similar class in the geographic market in which the Company's property is located ("Noncustomary Services") will not qualify as rents from real property. (iv) Rent attributable to personal property leased in connection with a lease of real property will not qualify as "rents from real property" if such rent is greater than 15% of the total rent received under the lease. In order for the Minimum Rent and the Percentage Rent to constitute "rents from real property," the Percentage Leases must be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes and not treated as service contracts, joint ventures or some other type of arrangement. The determination of whether the Percentage Leases are true leases depends on an analysis of all the surrounding facts and circumstances. In making such a determination, courts have considered a variety of factors, including the intent of the parties, the form of the agreement, and the degree of control over the property that is retained by the property owner. Code Section 7701(e) provides that a contract that purports to be a service contract (or a partnership agreement) is treated instead as a lease of property if the contract is properly treated as such, taking into account all relevant factors, including whether or not (i) the service recipient is in physical possession of the property; (ii) the service recipient controls the property; (iii) the service recipient has a significant economic or possessory interest in the property (e.g., the property's use is likely to be dedicated to the service recipient for a substantial portion of the useful life of the property, the recipient shares the risk that the property will decline in value, the recipient shares in any appreciation in the value of the property, the recipient shares in savings in the property's operating costs, or the recipient bears the risk of damage to or loss of the property); (iv) the service provider does not bear any risk of substantially diminished receipts or substantially increased expenditures if there is nonperformance under the contract; (v) the service provider does not use the property concurrently to provide significant services to entities unrelated to the service recipient; and (vi) the total contract price does not substantially exceed the rental value of the property for the contract period. Since the determination whether a service contract should be treated as a lease is inherently factual, the present or absence of any single factor may not be dispositive in every case. In rendering its opinion that the Company will qualify for taxation as a REIT, Counsel has concluded that the Percentage Leases should be treated as true leases for federal income tax purposes. Such conclusion is based, in part, on the following facts: (i) the Partnership and the Initial Lessee intend for their relationship to 84 89 be that of a lessor and lessee and such relationship will be documented by lease agreements; (ii) the Initial Lessee will have the right to exclusive possession and use and quiet enjoyment of the Initial Hotels during the term of the Percentage Leases; (iii) the Initial Lessee will bear the cost of, and be responsible for, day-to-day maintenance and repair of the Initial Hotels, other than the cost of maintaining underground utilities and structural repairs, and will dictate how the Initial Hotels are operated, maintained and improved; (iv) the Initial Lessee will bear all of the costs and expenses of operating the Initial Hotels (including the cost of any inventory used in their operation) during the term of the Percentage Leases (other than real property taxes, and the cost of replacement or refurbishment of furniture, fixtures and equipment, to the extent such costs do not exceed the allowance of such costs provided by the Partnership under each Percentage Lease); (v) the Initial Lessee will benefit from any savings in the costs of operating the Initial Hotels during the term of the Percentage Leases; (vi) the Initial Lessee will indemnify the Partnership against all liabilities imposed on the Partnership during the term of the Percentage Leases by reason of (A) injury to persons or damage to property occurring at the Initial Hotels or (B) Initial Lessee's use, management, maintenance or repair of the Initial Hotels; (vii) the Initial Lessee is obligated to pay substantial fixed rent for the period of use of the Initial Hotels; and (viii) the Initial Lessee stands to incur substantial losses (or reap substantial gains) depending on how successfully it operates the Initial Hotels. Investors should be aware that there are no controlling Treasury Regulations, published rulings, or judicial decisions involving leases with terms substantially the same as the Percentage Leases that discuss whether such leases constitute true leases for federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the foregoing conclusions with respect to the relationship between the Partnership and the Initial Lessee is based upon all of the facts and circumstances and upon rulings and judicial decisions involving situations that are considered to be analogous. There can be no complete assurance that the IRS will not successfully assert a contrary position. If the Percentage Leases are recharacterized as service contracts or partnership agreements, rather than true leases, part or all of the payments that the Partnership receives from Initial Lessee may not be considered rent or may not otherwise satisfy the various requirements for qualification as "rents from real property." In that case, the Company likely would not be able to satisfy either the 75% or 95% income tests and, as a result, would lose its REIT status. See "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Income Tests." As noted above, in order for the Rents to qualify as "rents from real property," the Percentage Rent must not be based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person. The Percentage Rent, however, will qualify as "rents from real property" if it is based on percentages of receipts or sales and the percentages (i) are fixed at the time the Percentage Leases are entered into; (ii) are not renegotiated during the term of the Percentage Leases in a manner that has the effect of basing Percentage Rent on income or profits; and (iii) conforms with normal business practice. More generally, the Percentage Rent will not qualify as "rents from real property" if, considering the Percentage Leases and all the surrounding circumstances, the arrangement does not conform with normal business practice, but is in reality used as a means of basing the Percentage Rent on income or profits. Since the Percentage Rent is based on fixed percentages of the gross revenues from the Initial Hotels that are established in the Percentage Leases, and the Company has represented that the percentages (i) will not be renegotiated during the terms of the Percentage Leases in a manner that has the effect of basing the Percentage Rent on income or profits; and (ii) conform with normal business practice, the Percentage Rent should not be considered based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person. Furthermore, the Company has represented that, with respect to other hotel properties that it acquires in the future, it will not charge rent for any property that is based in whole or in part on the income or profits of any person (except by reason of being based on a fixed percentage of gross revenues, as described above). Another requirement for the Rents to constitute "rents from real property" is that the Rents attributable to personal property leased in connection with the lease of the real property comprising an Initial Hotel must not be greater than 15% of the Rents received under the Percentage Lease. The Rents attributable to the personal property in an Initial Hotel is the amount that bears the same ratio to total rent for the taxable year as the average of the adjusted bases of the personal property in the Initial Hotel at the beginning and at the end of the taxable year bears to the average of the aggregate adjusted bases of both the real and personal property comprising the Initial Hotel at the beginning and at the end of such taxable year (the "Adjusted Basis 85 90 Ratio"). Furthermore, the Company has represented that rents attributable to personal property will not exceed 15% of the rents received under the Percentage Lease. A third requirement for qualifications of the Rents as "rents from real property" is that the Company must not own, directly or constructively, 10% or more of any tenant (the "10% Ownership Limitation"). Under the attribution rules governing the 10% Ownership Test, the Company is considered to own any shares owned by the Partnership if partners in the Partnership collectively own 10% or more (by value) of the Company. The Partnership Agreement provides that a redeeming Limited Partner will receive cash, rather than Common Stock, if the acquisition of Common Stock by such Partner would result in the Company being treated as owning, directly or constructively, 10% or more of the Initial Lessee or any sublessee. However, notwithstanding such restriction, because the Code's constructive ownership rules for purposes of the 10% Ownership Limitation are broad and it is not possible to continually monitor direct and indirect ownership of all Company Shares, it is possible that the Limited Partners of the Partnership may at some time own, directly or through attribution, 10% or more of such Shares, which would cause the Company to fail the gross income requirements and thus lose its REIT status. A fourth requirement for qualification of the Rents as "rents from real property" is that the Company cannot furnish or render non-Qualifying Services other than through an independent contractor from whom the Company itself does not derive or receive any income. Although the Company does provide certain management services, the Company has represented and warranted to Baker & Hostetler that these services are usual and customary management services provided by landlords in the geographic areas in which the Company owns property, and that such services are not primarily for the convenience of its residents. To the extent the provision of services would cause such disqualification, the Company has represented that it will hire independent contractors, from which the Company derives no income, to perform such services. As described above, however, if the Percentage Leases are recharacterized as service contracts, partnership agreements or some other form of arrangement, the Rents likely would be disqualified as "rents from real property" because the Company would be considered to furnish or render non-Qualifying Services to the occupants of the Initial Hotels other than through an independent contractor from whom the Company derives or receives no income. In summary, if the Rents do not qualify as "rents from real property" because either (i) the Percentage Rent is based on income or profits of the Initial Lessee; (ii) the Company owns, directly or constructively, 10% or more of the Lessee or any sublessee; or (iii) the Company furnishes non-Qualifying Services to the tenants of the Initial Hotels other than through a qualifying independent contractor (or furnishes Non-Customary Services (whether or not through an independent contractor) unless separately charged for by the independent contractor), none of the Rents would qualify as "rents from real property." In such event, the Company likely would lose its REIT status because it would be unable to satisfy either the 75% or 95% income tests. See "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Income Tests." Based on the foregoing, the Rents should qualify as "rents from real property" for purposes of the 75% and 95% income tests. As described above, the foregoing conclusions and Counsel's opinion as to the qualification of the Company to be taxed as a REIT are based upon an analysis of all the facts and circumstances and upon rulings and judicial decisions involving situations that are considered to be analogous, as well as representations by the Company and the Partnership and assumptions that are described above and set out in Counsel's opinion. Opinions of counsel are not binding upon the IRS or a court. Accordingly, there cannot be complete assurance that the IRS will not assert successfully a contrary position and, therefore, prevent the Company from qualifying for taxation as a REIT. The interest accrued on the Intercompany Convertible Note by the Company will be qualified income for purposes of the 75% test because the Intercompany Convertible Note is secured by second mortgages on two of the Initial Hotels. If the sum of the income realized by the Company (whether directly or through its interest in the Partnership) which does not satisfy the requirements of the 75% and the 95% gross income tests (collectively, "Non-Qualifying Income"), exceeds 5% of the company's gross income for any taxable year, the company's status as a REIT would be jeopardized. The company has represented that the amount of its Non-Qualifying Income will not exceed 5% of the Company's annual gross income for any taxable year. 86 91 It is possible that, from time to time, the Company or the Partnership will enter into hedging transactions with respect to one or more of its assets or liabilities. Any such hedging transactions could take a variety of forms. If the Company or the Partnership enters into an interest rate swap or cap contract to hedge any variable rate indebtedness incurred to acquire or carry real estate assets, any periodic income or gain from the disposition of such contract should be qualifying income for purposes of the 95% gross income test, but not for the 75% gross income test. Furthermore, any such contract would be considered a "security" for purposes of applying the 30% gross income test. To the extent that the Company or the Partnership hedges with other types of financial instruments or in other situations, it may not be entirely clear how the income from those transactions will be treated for purposes of the various income tests that apply to REITs under the Code. The Company intends to structure any hedging transactions in a manner that does not jeopardize its status as a REIT. If the Company fails to satisfy one or both of the 75% or 95% income tests for any taxable year, it may still qualify as a REIT in such year if (i) it attaches a schedule of the source and nature of each item of its gross income to its federal income tax return for such year; (ii) the inclusion of any incorrect information in its return was not due to fraud with intent to evade tax; and (iii) the Company's failure to meet such tests is due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect. It is not possible, however, to state whether in all circumstances the Company would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions. Even if these relief provisions apply, the Company will still be subject to a tax imposed with respect to the excess net income. See "-- Taxation of the Company as a REIT." No such relief is available for violations of the 30% income test. Annual Distribution Requirements. The Company, in order to qualify as a REIT, is required to distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to its shareholders in an amount at least equal to (A) the sum of (i) 95% of the Company's "REIT taxable income" (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and the REITs net capital gain); and (ii) 95% of the net income (after tax), if any, from foreclosure property, minus (B) the sum of certain items of noncash income. In addition, if the Company disposes of any asset during its Restriction Period, the Company will be required to distribute at least 95% of the built-in gain (after tax), if any, recognized on the disposition of such asset. Such distributions must be paid in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if declared before the Company timely files its tax return for such year and if paid on or before the first regular dividend payment after such declaration. To the extent that the Company does not distribute all of its net capital gain or distributes at least 95%, but less than 100%, of its "REIT taxable income," as adjusted, it will be subject to tax on the undistributed amount at regular capital gains and ordinary corporate tax rates. Moreover, if the Company should fail to distribute during each calendar year at least the sum of (i) 85% of its REIT ordinary income for such year; (ii) 95% of its REIT net capital gain income for such year; and (iii) any undistributed taxable income from prior periods, the Company would be subject to a 4% excise tax on the excess of such required distribution over the amounts actually distributed. The Company intends to make timely distributions sufficient to satisfy the annual distribution requirements. In this regard, the partnership agreement of the Partnership authorizes the Company, as general partner, to take such steps as may be necessary to cause the Partnership to distribute to its partners an amount sufficient to permit the Company to meet these distribution requirements. It is possible that the Company, from time to time, may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet the 95% distribution requirement due primarily to the expenditure of cash for nondeductible expenses such as principal amortization or capital expenditures. In the event that such timing differences occur, the Company may find it necessary to cause the Partnership to arrange for borrowings or liquidate some of its investments in order to meet the annual distribution requirement. In order to avoid any problem with the 95% distribution requirement, the Company will closely monitor the relationship between its REIT taxable income and cash flow and, if necessary, will borrow funds (or cause the Partnership to borrow funds) in order to satisfy the distribution requirements. If the Company fails to satisfy the 95% distribution requirement as a result of an adjustment to the Company's tax return by the IRS, the Company may be permitted to remedy such a failure by paying a "deficiency dividend" (plus applicable interest and penalties) within a specified time. Failure to Qualify. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year and the relief provisions do not apply, the Company will be subject to tax (including any applicable corporate 87 92 alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. Distributions to shareholders in any year in which the Company fails to qualify will not be deductible by the Company, nor will they be required to be made. In such event, to the extent of current and accumulated earnings and profits, all distributions to shareholders will be taxable to them as ordinary income, and, subject to certain limitations of the Code, corporate distributees may be eligible for the dividends received deduction. Unless entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions, the Company also will be ineligible for qualification as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. It is not possible to state whether in all circumstances the Company would be entitled to such statutory relief. TAX ASPECTS OF THE COMPANY'S INVESTMENT IN THE PARTNERSHIP General. The Company will hold a direct interest in the Partnership. In general, a partnership is not subject to federal income tax. Rather, each partner includes in the partner's taxable income or loss its allocable share of the partnership's items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit, without regard to whether the partner receives a distribution from the partnership. The Company will include its proportionate share of the foregoing items of the Partnership for purposes of the various REIT income tests and in the computation of its REIT taxable income. See "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Income Tests." Any resultant increase in the Company's REIT taxable income will increase its distribution requirements (see "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Annual Distribution Requirements"), but will not be subject to federal income tax in the hands of the Company provided that such income is distributed by the Company to its shareholders. Moreover, for purposes of the REIT asset tests (see "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Asset Tests"), the Company will include its proportionate share of assets held by the Partnership. Entity Classification. The Company's interest in the Partnership involves special tax considerations, including the possibility of a challenge by the IRS of the status of the Partnership as a partnership (as opposed to an association taxable as a corporation) for federal income tax purposes. If the Partnership was treated as an association, it would be taxable as a corporation and therefore subject to an entity-level tax on its income. In such a situation, the character of the Company's assets and items of gross income would change, which would preclude the Company from satisfying the asset and income tests (see "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Asset Tests" and "-- Income Tests"), and in turn would prevent the Company from qualifying as a REIT. See "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Failure to Qualify" above for a discussion of the effect of the Company's failure to meet such tests for a taxable year. The Company does not intend to request a ruling from the IRS that the Partnership will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Counsel has rendered its opinion, subject to certain factual assumptions and representations of the Company and the Partnership, that the Partnership will be treated for federal income tax purposes as a partnership. Counsel's opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts. Tax Allocations with Respect to the Properties. The Partnership initially will acquire a tax basis in each of the Initial Hotels equal to the adjusted tax basis of such asset in the hands of the current ownership entities, increased by any gain realized by the current ownership entities on the transfer. For purposes of determining the percentage interests of the contributing partners, the contributing partners will be credited with having contributed an amount equal to the agreed value of the contributed assets. The difference between the agreed value of a contributed asset and its adjusted tax basis is referred to as the book-tax difference (the "Book-Tax Difference"). It is expected that the agreed value of most of the Initial Hotels will substantially exceed their tax basis, so that there will be substantial Book-Tax Differences at the time of contribution. Pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code, income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to property contributed by a partner in exchange for a partnership interest (such as the Initial Hotels), must be allocated so that the contributing partner is charged with, or benefits from, respectively, any Book-Tax Difference associated with the property at the time of the contribution. Such allocations are solely for federal income tax purposes and do not affect the book capital accounts or other economic arrangements among the partners. The partnership agreement of the Partnership will require such allocations to be made in a manner consistent Section 704(c) of the Code. In general, the Partnership's Section 704(c) allocations allocate to the Company the same amounts of depreciation deductions attributable to the Initial Hotels and other assets and taxable gain or loss upon sale of such assets as the Company would have received had it purchased its interest in such assets at their agreed 88 93 value. To accomplish this, the existing owners will be allocated lower amounts of depreciation deductions for tax purposes and increased taxable income (or less loss) on sale by the Partnership of the Initial Hotels than their allocations of depreciation deductions and income or gain for book purposes. This will tend to eliminate the Book-Tax Difference over the life of the Partnership. However, the special allocation rules of Section 704(c) do not always entirely rectify the Book-Tax Difference on an annual basis or with respect to a specific taxable transaction such as a sale. Thus, the carryover basis of the contributed assets in the hands of the Partnership in some cases may cause the Company to be allocated lower depreciation and other deductions, and possibly greater amounts of taxable income in the event of a sale of the Initial Hotels in excess of the economic or book income allocated to it as a result of such sale. This might adversely affect the Company's ability to distribute sufficient dividends to comply with the REIT distribution requirements. See "-- Requirements for Qualification as a REIT -- Annual Distribution Requirements." The foregoing principles also apply in determining the earnings and profits of the Company for purposes of determining the portion of distributions taxable as dividend income. See "-- Taxation of the Company's Shareholders." The application of these rules over time may result in a higher portion of distributions being taxed as dividends than would have occurred had the Company purchased its interest in the Initial Hotels at their agreed value. Treasury Regulations under Section 704(c) of the Code allow partnerships to use any reasonable method of accounting for Book-Tax Differences for contributions of property so that a contributing partner receives the tax benefits and burdens of any built-in gain or loss associated with contributed property. The Partnership currently intends to account for Book-Tax Differences using the traditional method provided for in the regulations. With respect to any property purchased by the Partnership subsequent to the formation of the Company, such property will initially have a tax basis equal to its purchase price and Section 704(c) of the Code will not apply. Basis in Partnership Interest. The Company's adjusted tax basis in its partnership interest in the Partnership generally (i) will be equal to the amount of cash and the basis of any other property contributed to the Partnership by the Company; (ii) will be increased by (A) its allocable share of the Partnership's income and (B) its allocable share of indebtedness of the Partnership; and (iii) will be reduced, but not below zero, by the Company's allocable share of (a) the Partnership's loss and (B) the amount of cash distributed to the Company and by constructive distributions resulting from a reduction in the Company's share of indebtedness of the Partnership. If the allocation of the Company's distributive share of the Partnership's loss would reduce the adjusted tax basis of the Company's partnership interest in the Partnership below zero, the recognition of such loss will be deferred until such time as the recognition of such loss would not reduce the Company's adjusted tax basis below zero. To the extent that the Partnership's distributions, or any decrease in the Company's share of the indebtedness of the Partnership (such decrease being considered a constructive cash distribution to the partners), would reduce the Company's adjusted tax basis below zero, such distributions (including such constructive distributions) constitute taxable income to the Company. Such distributions and constructive distributions normally will be characterized as capital gain, and, if the Company's partnership interest in the Partnership has been held for longer than the long-term capital gain holding period (currently one year), the distributions and constructive distributions will constitute long-term capital gain. Depreciation Deductions Available to the Partnership. Immediately after the Offering, the Company will make a cash contribution to the Partnership in exchange for an approximately 82.0% general partnership interest in the Partnership (which interest will increase to 85.7% if the Intercompany Convertible Note is converted). The Partnership will concurrently acquire all of the equity interests in the Contributed Partnerships in exchange for approximately $9.1 million in cash and issuance of Units representing approximately 18.0% of the equity interests in the Partnership (14.3% if the Intercompany Convertible Note is converted). The Partnership's initial basis in the Initial Hotels for federal income tax purposes will be a carryover of the basis of the Contributed Partnerships in the Initial Hotels on the date of such transactions, increased by any gain recognized on the transfers to the Partnership. The Partnership plans to depreciate, for federal income tax purposes, the Initial Hotels and any depreciable hotel property which it may acquire for cash in the future under ADS. Under ADS, the Partnership will depreciate such building and improvements 89 94 - -- even those acquired with a carryover basis -- over a new 40 year recovery period using a straight-line method and a mid-month convention. The Partnership plans to use the modified accelerated cost recovery system of depreciation ("MACRS") for subsequently acquired furnishings and equipment. Under MACRS, the Partnership generally will depreciate such furnishings and equipment over a seven-year recovery period using a 200% declining balance method and a half-year convention. If, however, the Partnership places more than 40% of its furnishings and equipment in service during the last three months of a taxable year, a mid- quarter depreciation convention must be used for the furnishings and equipment placed in service during that year. The Partnership plans to use ADS for the depreciation of subsequently acquired buildings and improvements. Under ADS, the Partnership generally will depreciate such buildings and improvements over a 40-year recovery period using a straight line method and a mid-month convention. Sale of the Properties. Generally, any gain realized by a partnership on the sale of assets held by the partnership for more than one year will be long-term capital gain. However, under REIT rules, the Company's share of any gain realized by the Partnership on the sale of any property held as inventory or other property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business ("dealer property") will be treated as income from a prohibited transaction that is subject to a 100% penalty tax. See "-- Taxation of the Company as a REIT." Under existing law, whether property is dealer property is a question of fact that depends on all the facts and circumstances with respect to the particular transaction. A safe harbor to avoid classification as a prohibited transaction exists as to real estate assets held for the production of rental income by a REIT for at least four years where in any taxable year the REIT has made no more than seven sales of property, or, in the alternative, the aggregate of the adjusted bases of all properties sold does not exceed 10% of the adjusted bases of all of the REIT's properties during the year and the expenditures includable in a property's basis made during the four-year period prior to disposition do not exceed 30% of the property's net sale price. All inventory required in the operation of the Initial Hotels will be purchased by the Initial Lessee or its designee as required by the terms of the Percentage Leases. Accordingly, the Company and the Partnership believe that no asset owned by the Company or the Partnership is dealer property of the Company or the Partnership. Nevertheless, the Company and the Partnership will attempt to comply with the terms of the safe-harbor provisions of the Code. Complete assurance cannot be given, however, that the Company or the Partnership can comply with the safe-harbor provisions of the Code or avoid owning property that may be characterized as dealer property. TAXATION OF TAXABLE DOMESTIC SHAREHOLDERS As long as the Company qualifies as a REIT, distributions made to the Company's taxable shareholders out of current or accumulated earnings and profits (and not designated as capital gain dividends) will be taken into account by such shareholders as ordinary income. Domestic shareholders generally are shareholders who are (i) citizens or residents of the United States; (ii) corporations, partnerships or other entities created in or organized under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; or (iii) estates or trusts the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source. Corporate shareholders will not be entitled to the dividends received deduction. Any dividend declared by the Company in October, November or December of any year payable to a shareholder of record on a specific date in any such month shall be treated as both paid by the Company and received by the shareholder on December 31 of such year, provided that the dividend is actually paid by the Company during January of the following calendar year. Distributions that are designated as capital gain dividends will be taxed as long-term capital gains (to the extent they do not exceed the Company's actual net capital gain for the taxable year) without regard to the period for which the shareholder has held its shares. However, corporate shareholders may be required to treat up to 20% of certain capital gain dividends as ordinary income. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will not be taxable to a shareholder to the extent that they do not exceed the adjusted basis of the shareholder's Common Shares, but rather will reduce the adjusted basis of such shares. To the extent that such distributions exceed the adjusted basis of a shareholder's Common Shares, they will be included in income as long-term capital gain assuming the shares are a capital asset in the hands of the shareholder and have been held for more than one year. 90 95 Shareholders may not include in their individual income tax returns any net operating losses or capital losses of the Company. In general, a shareholder will realize capital gain or loss on the disposition of Common Shares equal to the difference between (a) the sales price for such shares and (b) the adjusted tax basis of such shares. Gain or loss realized upon the sale or exchange of Common Shares by a shareholder who has held such Common Shares for more than one year (after applying certain holding period rules) will be treated as long-term gain or loss, respectively, and otherwise will be treated as short-term capital gain or loss. However, losses incurred upon a sale or exchange of Common Shares by a shareholder who has held such shares for six months or less (after applying certain holding period rules) will be deemed a long-term capital loss to the extent of any capital gain dividends received by the selling shareholder with respect to such Common Shares. Distributions from the Company and gain from the disposition of shares will not be treated as passive activity income. Distributions from the Company (to the extent they do not constitute a return of capital) will generally be treated as investment income for purposes of the investment interest limitation. Gain from the disposition of shares and capital gain dividends will not be treated as investment income unless the taxpayer elects to have the gain taxed at ordinary income rates. Backup Withholding. The Company will report to its domestic shareholders and the IRS the amount of dividends paid during each calendar year, and the amount of tax withheld, if any, with respect thereto. Under the backup withholding rules, a shareholder may be subject to backup withholding at the rate of 31% with respect to dividends paid unless such shareholder (a) is a corporation or comes within certain other exempt categories and, when required, demonstrates this fact, or (b) provides a taxpayer identification number, certifies as to no loss of exemption from backup withholding, and otherwise complies with applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. A shareholder who does not provide the Company with its correct taxpayer identification number may also be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS. Any amount paid as backup withholding will be creditable against the shareholder's income tax liability. In addition, the Company may be required to withhold a portion of capital gain distributions made to any shareholders who fail to certify their nonforeign status to the Company. TAXATION OF TAX-EXEMPT SHAREHOLDERS Tax-exempt entities, including qualified employee pension and profit-sharing trusts, individual retirement accounts and certain funded welfare plan arrangements ("Exempt Organizations"), generally are exempt from federal income taxation. However, they are subject to taxation on their unrelated business taxable income ("UBTI"). While many investments in real estate generate UBTI, the IRS has issued a published ruling that dividend distributions by a REIT to an exempt employee pension trust do not constitute UBTI, provided that the shares of the REIT are not otherwise used in an unrelated trade or business of the exempt employee pension trust. Based on that ruling and on the intention of the Company to invest its assets in a manner that will avoid the recognition of UBTI by the Company, amounts distributed by the Company to Exempt Organizations generally should not constitute UBTI. However, if an Exempt Organization finances its acquisition of the Common Stock with debt, a portion of its income from the Company will constitute UBTI pursuant to the "debt-financed property" rules. Furthermore, social clubs, voluntary employee benefits associations, supplemental unemployment benefit trusts, and qualified group legal services plans that are exempt from taxation under paragraphs (7), (9), (17), and (20), respectively, of Code section 501(c) are subject to different UBTI rules, which generally will require them to characterize distributions from the Company as UBTI. In addition, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, a pension trust that owns more than 10% of the Company is required to treat a percentage of the dividends from the Company as UBTI (the "UBTI Percentage") in certain circumstances. The UBTI Percentage is the gross income derived from an unrelated trade or business (determined as if the Company were a pension trust) divided by the gross income of the Company for the year in which the dividends are paid. The UBTI rule applies only if (i) the UBTI Percentage is at least 5%; (ii) the Company qualifies as a REIT by reason of the modification of the 5/50 Rule that allows the beneficiaries of the pension trust to be treated as holding shares of the Company in proportion to their actuarial interests in the pension trust; and (iii) either (A) one pension trust owns more than 25% of the value of the Company's stock or (B) a group of pension trusts individually holding more than 10% of the value of the Company's stock collectively own more than 50% of the value of the Company's stock. 91 96 While an investment in the Company by an Exempt Organization generally is not expected to result in UBTI except in the circumstances described in the preceding paragraph, any gross UBTI that does arise from such an investment will be combined with all other gross UBTI of the Exempt Organization for a taxable year and reduced by all deductions attributable to the UBTI plus $1,000. Any amount then remaining will constitute UBTI on which the Exempt Organization will be subject to tax. If the gross income taken into account in computing UBTI exceeds $1,000, the Exempt Organization is obligated to file a tax return for such year on an IRS Form 990-T. Neither the Company, its Board of Directors, nor any of its Affiliates expects to undertake the preparation or filing of IRS Form 990-T for any Exempt Organization in connection with an investment by such Exempt Organization in the Common Stock. Generally, IRS Form 990-T must be filed with the IRS by April 15 of the year following the year to which it relates. TAXATION OF FOREIGN SHAREHOLDERS The rules governing United States federal income taxation of nonresident alien individuals, foreign corporations, foreign partnerships and other foreign shareholders (collectively, "Non-U.S. Shareholders") are complex, and no attempt will be made herein to provide more than a summary of such rules. PROSPECTIVE NON-U.S. SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS TO DETERMINE THE IMPACT OF FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL INCOME TAX LAWS WITH REGARD TO AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON SHARES, INCLUDING ANY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. It is currently anticipated that the Company will qualify as a "domestically controlled REIT" (i.e., a REIT in which at all times during a specified testing period less than 50% of the value of the shares is owned directly or indirectly by Non-U.S. Shareholders) and therefore gain from the sale of Common Shares by a Non-U.S. Shareholder would not be subject to United States taxation unless such gain is treated as "effectively connected" with the Non-U.S. Shareholder's United States trade or business. Distributions that are not attributable to gain from the sale or exchange by the Company of United States real property interests (and are not designated as capital gain dividends) will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent that they are made out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company. Such distributions generally will be subject to a United States withholding tax equal to 30% of the gross amount of the distribution, subject to reduction or elimination under an applicable tax treaty. However, if dividends from the investment in the shares are treated as "effectively connected" with the Non-U.S. Shareholder's conduct of a United States trade or business, such dividends will be subject to regular U.S. income taxation (foreign corporations may also be subject to the 30% branch profits tax). The Company expects to withhold United States income tax at the rate of 30% on the gross amount of any such dividends made to a Non-U.S. Shareholder unless: (i) a lower treaty rate applies and the Non-U.S. Shareholder files certain information evidencing its entitlement to such lower treaty rate; or (ii) the Non-U.S. Shareholder files an IRS Form 4224 with the Company claiming that the distribution is "effectively connected" income. Distributions which exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits of the Company will not be taxable to the extent that they do not exceed the adjusted basis of a shareholder's shares but, rather, will reduce (but not below zero) the adjusted basis of such shares. To the extent that such distributions exceed the adjusted basis of a Non-U.S. Shareholder's shares, they generally will give rise to United States tax liability if the Non-U.S. Shareholder would otherwise be subject to tax on gain from the sale or disposition of his or her shares in the Company, as described above. If it cannot be determined at the time a distribution is made whether or not such distribution will be in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, the distributions will be subject to withholding at the same rate as dividends. However, amounts thus withheld are refundable if it is subsequently determined that such distribution was, in fact, in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits of the Company. Distributions by the Company to a Non-U.S. Shareholder that are attributable to gain from sales or exchanges by the Company of a United States real property interest are subject to income and withholding tax under the provisions of the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 ("FIRPTA"). Under FIRPTA, these distributions, if any, that are treated as gain recognized from the sale of a United States real property interest, are taxed as income "effectively connected" with a United States business. Non-U.S. Shareholders would thus be taxed at the normal capital gain rates applicable to U.S. shareholders (subject to 92 97 the applicable alternative minimum tax and a special alternative minimum tax for nonresident alien individuals). Also, distributions subject to FIRPTA may be subject to a 30% branch profits tax in the hands of a foreign corporate shareholder not entitled to treaty exemption. The Company is required by applicable Treasury Regulations to withhold 35% of any distribution that could be designated by the Company as a capital gains dividend. This amount is creditable against the Non-U.S. Shareholder's FIRPTA tax liability. A refund may be available if the amount exceeds the Non-U.S. Shareholder's federal tax liability. OTHER TAX CONSIDERATIONS State and Local Taxes. The company or its shareholders or both may be subject to state, local or other taxation in various state, local or other jurisdictions, including those in which they transact business or reside. The tax treatment in such jurisdictions may differ from federal income tax consequences discussed above. Consequently, prospective shareholders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the effect of state, local and other tax laws on an investment in the Common Shares of the Company. ERISA CONSIDERATIONS A fiduciary of a pension, profit sharing, retirement, welfare or other employee benefit plan ("Plan") subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), should consider the fiduciary standards under ERISA in the context of the Plan's particular circumstances before authorizing an investment of a portion of the Plan's assets in the Common Shares. Accordingly, any such fiduciary should consider (i) whether the investment satisfies the diversification requirements of Section 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA; (ii) whether the investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan as required by Section 404(a)(1)(D) of ERISA; and (iii) whether the investment is prudent under ERISA. In addition to the imposition of general fiduciary standards of investment prudence and diversification, ERISA, and the corresponding provisions of the Code, prohibit a wide range of transactions involving the assets of the Plan and persons who have certain specified relationships to the Plan ("parties in interest" within the meaning of ERISA, "disqualified persons" within the meaning of the Code). Thus, a Plan fiduciary considering an investment in the Common Shares also should consider whether the acquisition or the continued holding of the Common Shares might constitute or give rise to a direct or indirect prohibited transaction. The Department of Labor (the "DOL") has issued final regulations (the "Regulations") as to what constitutes assets of an employee benefit plan under ERISA. Under the Regulations, if a Plan acquires an equity interest in an entity, which interest is neither a "publicly offered security" nor a security issued by an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Plan's assets would include, for purposes of the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, both the equity interest and an undivided interest in each of the entity's underlying assets unless certain specified exceptions apply. The Regulations define a publicly offered security as a security that is "widely held," "freely transferable," and either part of a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act, or sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (provided the securities are registered under the Exchange Act within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year of the issuer during which the public offering occurred). The Common Shares are being sold in an offering registered under the Securities Act and will be registered under the Exchange Act. The DOL Regulations provide that a security is "widely held" only if it is part of a class of securities that is owned by 100 or more investors independent of the issuer and of one another. A security will not fail to be "widely held" because the number of independent investors falls below 100 subsequent to the initial public offering as a result of events beyond the issuer's control. The Company expects the Common Shares to be "widely held" on completion of the Offering. The DOL Regulations provide that whether a security is "freely transferable" is a factual question to be determined on the basis of all relevant facts and circumstances. The DOL Regulations further provide that when a security is part of an offering in which the minimum investment is $10,000 or less, as is the case with the Offering, certain restrictions ordinarily will not, alone or in combination, affect the finding that those securities are "freely transferable." The Company believes that the restrictions imposed under its Articles of 93 98 Incorporation on the transfer of the Common Shares are limited to the restrictions on transfer generally permitted under the DOL Regulations and are not likely to result in the failure of the Common Shares to be "freely transferable." The Company also believes that certain restrictions that apply to the Common Shares to be held by the Company, or derived from contractual arrangements requested by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, are unlikely to result in the failure of the Common Shares to be "freely transferable." See "Shares Available for Future Sale" and "Underwriting." The DOL Regulations only establish a presumption in favor of the finding of free transferability, and, therefore, no assurance can be given that the DOL and the U.S. Treasury Department will not reach a contrary conclusion. Assuming that the Common Shares will be "widely held" and are "freely transferable," the Company believes that the Common Shares will be publicly offered securities for purposes of the Regulations and that the assets of the Company will not be deemed to be "plan assets" of any Plan that invests in the Common Shares. 94 99 UNDERWRITING The underwriters of the Offering (the "Underwriters"), for whom Lehman Brothers Inc., Alex. Brown & Sons Incorporated, Dean Witter Reynolds Inc., A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc., EVEREN Securities, Inc. and McDonald & Company Securities, Inc. are serving as representatives, have severally agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") (the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (as defined) of which this Prospectus is a part), to purchase from the Company and the Company has agreed to sell to each Underwriter, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock set forth opposite their respective names below:

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the Underwriters to purchase Common Shares are subject to certain other conditions and that if any of the Common Shares are purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, all Common Shares agreed to be purchased by the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement must be so purchased. Although the Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") exempt REITs from the conflict of interest provisions thereof, the Underwriters have determined to conduct the Offering in accordance with Rule 2720 of the Conduct Rules because an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. will receive more than ten percent of the net proceeds of the Offering in repayment of currently outstanding indebtedness. In accordance with these provisions, Lehman Brothers Inc. has agreed that the price at which the Common Shares are to be distributed to the public shall be no higher than that recommended by a 95 100 "qualified independent underwriter" meeting certain standards described in the Rules of Fair Practice of the NASD. Dean Witter Reynolds Inc. has agreed to act as the qualified independent underwriter in connection with the Offering, has participated in the preparation of the Prospectus and the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part, and has exercised the usual standard of due diligence with respect thereto. The Company has been advised that the Underwriters propose to offer the Common Shares directly to the public initially at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and to certain selected dealers (who may include the Underwriters) at such public offering price less a selling concession not in excess of $1.30 per share. The Underwriters may allow, and the selected dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $.10 per share to certain other brokers and dealers. After the initial public offering of the Common Shares, the concession to selected dealers and the reallowances to other dealers may be changed by the Underwriters. The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 1,241,250 Common Shares at the public offering price less the aggregate underwriting discounts and commissions shown on the cover page of this Prospectus solely to cover over-allotments, if any. The option may be exercised at any time up to 30 days after the date of this Prospectus. To the extent that the Underwriters exercise such option, the Underwriters will be committed (subject to certain conditions) to purchase a number of option shares proportionate to such Underwriter's initial commitment. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof. The Common Shares have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, under the symbol "BOY." In order to meet one of the requirements for the listing of the Common Shares, the Underwriters have undertaken to sell lots of 100 or more shares to a minimum of 2,000 beneficial holders for a minimum of 1.1 million publicly-held shares and for an aggregate market value of at least $40 million. The Underwriters have informed the Company that they do not intend to confirm sales to any account over which they exercise discretionary authority. At the request of the Company, up to 200,000 Common Shares offered in the Offering have been reserved for sale to employees of the Company and certain members of their families. The price of such shares to such persons will be equal to the public offering price set forth on the cover of this Prospectus. The number of shares available to the general public will be reduced to the extent those persons purchase reserved shares. Any shares not so purchased will be offered in the Offering at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this Prospectus. The Company has agreed not to offer, sell or contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of, or announce the offering of, any Common Shares, or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, Common Shares, except the Common Shares offered hereby, for a period of 180 days from and after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of Lehman Brothers Inc. From time to time, certain of the Underwriters or their affiliates may provide investment banking services to the Company. The Company will pay an advisory fee equal to .5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (including any exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option) to Lehman Brothers Inc. for advisory services in connection with the evaluation, analysis and structuring of the Company's formation and the Offering. In connection with the Offering, an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. will be repaid mortgage loans in the principal amount of $65.2 million made by it to certain Boykin Group Affiliates and will be a participant in the Credit Facility. The interest payable with respect to the mortgage loan repayment is less than it would be if the repayment had not been made in connection with the Offering. See "Use of Proceeds" and "The Company -- Business Objectives and Strategies -- Financing Strategy." Prior to this Offering there has been no public market for the Common Shares. The initial public offering price for the Common Shares offered hereby was determined by negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters and was based on, among other things, the Initial Hotels' financial and operating history and 96 101 condition, the prospectus of the Company and its industry in general, the management of the Company and the market prices of securities of companies engaged in businesses similar to those of the Company.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of this balance sheet. F-12 117 BOYKIN LODGING COMPANY NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET AS OF JUNE 30, 1996 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF BALANCE SHEET PRESENTATION: Boykin Lodging Company (the Company) was incorporated February 8, 1996 to acquire equity interests in existing hotel properties and to selectively consider the development of new hotels. The Company expects to qualify as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes. The Company intends to offer for sale 8,275,000 shares of common stock in an initial public offering (the Offering). The Company has had no operations during the period from inception through June 30, 1996. Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will contribute substantially all of the net proceeds of the Offering to Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., a limited partnership (the Partnership) in exchange for an equity interest in the Partnership and will provide a $40 million Intercompany Convertible Note (the Note) to the Partnership. The Note will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Offering. Interest on the Note will accrue at a rate equal to 9.5% per annum, increasing to 9.75% per annum on the third anniversary of the completion of the Offering, and will be payable quarterly. The Note may be prepaid in full, but not in part, at any time. The Company will have the right to convert the Note after the second anniversary of the completion of the Offering, and prior to maturity and in advance of any proposed prepayment by the Partnership, into additional equity interests in the Partnership at face value based on the initial offering price of the Company's Common Shares (and assuming that the value of one Partnership Unit equals the value of one Common Share). On conversion of the Note, the Company will receive an additional equity interest in the Partnership of 3.7%. Assuming conversion of the Note, the Company will have an 85.7% equity interest in the Partnership. The Company will be the sole general partner of the Partnership. The Note will be secured by mortgages on certain of the Initial Hotels, defined below. The Partnership will use a substantial portion of the proceeds from the Company and will issue limited partnership interests representing approximately 14.3% (after conversion of the Note) of the Partnership to acquire nine hotel properties (the Initial Hotels) from various entities, to finance certain capital improvements, and for general working capital purposes. The Partnership will lease the Initial Hotels to Boykin Management Company Limited Liability Company (the Initial Lessee) pursuant to leases which contain provisions for rent based on the revenues of the Initial Hotels (the Percentage Leases). Each Percentage Lease obligates the Initial Lessee to pay rent equal to the greater of the minimum rent or a percentage rent based on the gross revenues of each Initial Hotel. The Initial Lessee will hold the franchise agreement for each Initial Hotel. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the limited partners of the Partnership will receive Exchange Rights, which will enable them to cause the Company to pay cash for their interests in the Partnership, or at the Company's election, to exchange common shares for such interests. The Exchange Rights may be exercised in whole or in part. The number of Common Shares initially issuable to the limited partners upon exercise of the Exchange Rights is 1,378,000. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Exchange Rights will be adjusted upon the occurrence of stock splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro rata share transactions, which otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of the limited partners or the shareholders of the Company. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Distributions The Company intends to make regular quarterly distribution which are dependent upon receipt of distributions from the Partnership. Acquisitions of Initial Hotels In accounting for the acquisitions of the Initial Hotels discussed in Note 1, purchase accounting will be applied to those hotel properties in which (i) non-affiliated persons exchange their interests for Units of the Partnership or cash, or (ii) affiliated persons exchange their interests for cash consideration. The exchange of F-13 118 BOYKIN LODGING COMPANY NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET -- (CONTINUED) AS OF JUNE 30, 1996 ownership interests by affiliated persons for Units of the Partnership will not result in purchase accounting adjustments to historical basis as such transactions will be between entities under common control. 3. DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK: Common Shares Holders of the Company's Common Shares are entitled to receive dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, out of funds legally available therefor. The holders of Common Shares, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, are entitled to share ratably in any assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities of the Company and all preferences of the holders of any outstanding preferred shares. The Common Shares possess ordinary voting rights, each share entitling the holder thereof to one vote. Holders of Common Shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors and do not have preemptive rights. Preferred Shares The Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of two classes of preferred shares (collectively, the Preferred Shares), each in one or more series, to establish the number of shares in each series and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights (other than voting rights) of each series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon. An aggregate of ten million Preferred Shares are authorized. Because the Board of Directors has the power to establish the preferences and rights of each series of Preferred Shares, the Board of Directors may afford the holders of any series of Preferred Shares preferences, powers and rights senior to the rights of holders of Common Shares. The issuance of Preferred Shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. The Company has no present intention to issue Preferred Shares. 4. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS: Long-Term Incentive Plan Grants of incentive or nonqualified share options, restricted shares, deferred shares, share purchase rights and share appreciation rights in tandem with options, or any combination thereof, may be made under the plan. Eligible employees of the Company may participate in the long-term incentive plan. Members of the Compensation Committee are not eligible to participate in the long-term incentive plan. The Company has reserved 1,000,000 Common Shares for issuance under the plan. Upon the Closing, Robert W. Boykin, Raymond P. Heitland and Mark L. Bishop will be granted options to purchase 250,000, 75,000 and 75,000 shares, respectively, under the long-term incentive plan. These grants will be made at the initial public offering price. The Company will follow the disclosure option in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 and accordingly no expense will be recognized for these options. The long-term incentive plan provides for vesting, exercise or forfeiture of rights granted under the long-term incentive plan on retirement, death, disability, termination of employment or a change of control. The Board of Directors may modify, suspend or terminate the long-term incentive plan as long as it does not impair the rights thereunder of any participant. Under applicable law, the holders of Common Shares must approve any increase in the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the long-term incentive plan, any change in the classes of employees eligible to participate in the long-term incentive plan and any material increase in the benefits accruing to participants. F-14 119 BOYKIN LODGING COMPANY NOTES TO BALANCE SHEET -- (CONTINUED) AS OF JUNE 30, 1996 Compensation of Directors Each independent director will receive an option for 5,000 Common Shares exercisable at the initial public offering price of the Common Shares. These options will vest fully within the first two years of issuance and will have a term of ten years. Employment Contracts The Company will enter into an employment contract with Robert W. Boykin, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, at an initial annual base compensation of $250,000. The employment contract with Mr. Boykin provides for an initial three year term that is automatically extended for an additional year at the end of each year of the agreement, subject to the right of either party to terminate the agreement by giving two years' prior notice. In addition, the Company will enter into employment contracts with two other executive officers at an aggregate annual base compensation of $290,000. These contracts provide for an initial one year term that is automatically extended for an additional year at the end of each year of the agreement, subject to the right of either party to terminate the agreement by giving six months' prior notice. In addition, each employment contract provides for the payment of a bonus based upon specified percentages of annual base salary in the event that specified operating results are achieved. F-15 120 INITIAL LESSEE PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS The Initial Lessee's unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1995, the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, and the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively, are presented as if the consummation of the Formation Transactions had occurred as of January 1, 1995 and carried forward through each period presented. The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 is presented in conjunction with the analysis of the expected initial distributions as set forth under the caption "Distribution Policy."

It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements listed in the Index to Financial Statements at page F-1 of this Prospectus. In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the Formation Transactions have been made. The Initial Lessee will be structured as a pass through entity for income tax purposes and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided. These unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations are not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations of the Initial Lessee would have been assuming that the Formation Transactions had been completed as of the beginning of the periods presented, nor do they purport to represent the results of operations for future periods.

See Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations. F-20 125 INITIAL LESSEE NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED, DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) (A) Derived from the historical combined financial statements of the Initial Hotels for the period presented. (B) Conforms the operating results of the Initial Hotel having a September 30 fiscal year-end to a December 31, 1995 year-end by adding the operating results of that Initial Hotel for the period October 1 to December 31, 1995 and subtracting the operating results of that Initial Hotel for the corresponding interim period of the prior year. (C) For the year ended December 31, 1995, includes the operating results of Boykin Management Company (BMC) for the year ended March 31, 1996 and the operating results of Purchasing Concepts, Inc. (PCI) and Bopa Design Company (Spectrum Services) for the year ended December 31, 1995. Such amounts are derived from the historical combined statement of revenues and expenses of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services. In the opinion of management, the effect of nonconforming period ends is not material. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, and the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, the period ends of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services have been combined using the same months and periods. In preparing the pro forma statement of operations of the Initial Lessee for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, the period end of BMC has been conformed to June 30, 1996 by adding its historical operating results for the three-month period April 1 to June 30, 1996 to its historical fiscal year-end operating results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 and then subtracting its historical operating results for the three-month period April 1 to June 30, 1995. (D) From August 1993 until February 1996, the catering, meeting, lounge and restaurant facilities of the Lake Norman Holiday Inn were operated by a third-party operator. In February 1996, when a Boykin Affiliate purchased the hotel facility, it also purchased the food and beverage business assets of this operator. This adjustment represents the approximate food and beverage revenues of this operator for the period indicated, based upon actual historical revenue information obtained by the Company. (E) Reflects the elimination of management fees charged to the Initial Hotels by BMC, the elimination of intercompany sales from PCI and Spectrum Services to the Initial Hotels, and the elimination of interest income earned by BMC on the advances due from Boykin Columbus Joint Venture; such advances will be retired in connection with the Formation Transactions.

(F) Prior to February 1996, the Lake Norman Hotels provided complimentary breakfasts to their guests. In February 1996, when a Boykin Affiliate purchased the Lake Norman Hotels, the practice of providing complimentary breakfasts was terminated at one of the Lake Norman Hotels. This adjustment eliminates the historical expense associated with the complimentary breakfasts at that hotel. (G) Reflects operating costs associated with the food and beverage operations discussed in (D). (H) Reflects the cost of sales related to the Spectrum Services revenues eliminated in (E). F-21 126 (I) Decrease reflects (i) the elimination of expenses related to the PCI revenues eliminated in (E), and (ii) the elimination of estimated general and administrative expenses of BMC which will be incurred by the Partnership. The expenses to be incurred by the Partnership primarily relate to administrative salaries.

(J) Reflects the elimination of management fee expense of the Initial Hotels related to the management fee revenues eliminated in (E).

(L) Reflects the elimination of (i) mortgage interest expense of the Initial Hotels due to the expected repayment of such debt with a portion of the proceeds from the Offering, and (ii) interest expense on note payable obligations of BMC which are expected to be retired in connection with the formation and capitalization of the Initial Lessee. (M) Reflects the elimination of depreciation expense related to the investments in hotel properties of the Initial Hotels which are to be acquired by the Partnership. (N) Reflects the elimination of the gain recognized on property insurance recovery. As the Company will own the Initial Hotel properties, the Initial Lessee will not realize or incur such gains or losses. (O) Reflects the elimination of miscellaneous items of nonoperating income and expense which will not be earned or incurred by the Initial Lessee. The pro forma adjustments consist of the following:

(P) Represents lease payments calculated on a pro forma basis by applying the rent provisions of the Percentage Leases to the pro forma room, food and beverage and other revenues of the Initial Hotels as well as an additional $725 of Percentage Lease payments required pursuant to the rental interruption insurance provisions of the Percentage Lease agreements for the year ended December 31, 1995 and the 12 months ended June 30, 1996. The rent formula utilized in computing the pro forma Percentage Lease expense includes for the calendar year 1995 an adjustment to reduce the threshold revenue amounts in the Percentage Lease formulas by the 2.5% increase in the Consumer Price Index for that year. See "Business and Properties" for the Percentage Lease formulas. F-22 127 INITIAL LESSEE PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET AS OF JUNE 30, 1996 (UNAUDITED, DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) The unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet is presented as if the consummation of the Formation Transactions (as they relate to the formation of the Initial Lessee) had occurred on June 30, 1996. Such pro forma information is based in part upon the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company, the combined balance sheets of the Initial Hotels, and the combined statement of net assets of Boykin Management Company, Purchasing Concepts, Inc., and Bopa Design Company, all as of June 30, 1996. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements listed in the Index to Financial Statements at page F-1 of this Prospectus. In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the Formation Transactions have been made. This unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet is not necessarily indicative of what the actual financial position would have been assuming the Formation Transactions had been completed as of June 30, 1996, nor does it purport to represent the future financial position of the Initial Lessee.

As stated in "Lessees -- Initial Lessee," the Initial Lessee will have a minimum net worth of $3,000 upon completion of the Formation Transactions. It is the intention of the Initial Lessee that, to the extent cash is available, the Initial Hotels and BMC will make cash distributions to their respective partners and shareholders, as applicable, such that the aggregate net assets to be transferred by these entities to the Initial Lessee at closing will result in the Initial Lessee having an initial net worth of $3,000. F-25 130 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To Boykin Management Company: We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels), as defined in Note 1 to the combined financial statements, as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related combined statements of operations, partners' deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Initial Hotels (excluding Lake Norman Hotels), as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the index of financial statements and included on page F-41 of this Prospectus is the responsibility of the Company's management and is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial statements. The schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

F-30 135 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) (AMOUNTS AND DISCLOSURES AS OF JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1996 AND FOR THE PERIODS THEN ENDED ARE UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The Initial Hotels excluding Lake Norman Hotels consist of the following full-service hotels:
NUMBER OF PROPERTY NAME LOCATION ROOMS ------------------------------------------ --------------------- --------- Berkeley Marina Marriott.................. Berkeley, California 373 Buffalo Marriott.......................... Buffalo, New York 356 Cleveland Airport Marriott................ Cleveland, Ohio 375 Cleveland Marriott East................... Beachwood, Ohio 403 Columbus North Marriott................... Columbus, Ohio 300 Melbourne Quality Suites.................. Melbourne, Florida 208 Radisson Inn Sanibel Gateway.............. Ft. Myers, Florida 157
Boykin Management Company (BMC) was involved in the development of each of the above hotels and has managed all of the Initial Hotels excluding the Lake Norman Hotels since their respective inceptions. The hotels are owned by partnerships (Boykin Partnerships) in which the shareholders of The Boykin Company (TBC), BMC's parent company, and certain officers and employees of BMC (collectively, BMC Affiliates) have significant direct and indirect ownership interests. As of December 31, 1995, the Boykin Partnerships are owned as follows:
PARTNERSHIP INTEREST ------------------ BMC THIRD AFFILIATES PARTY ---------- ----- Berkeley Marina Associates, L.P. (BMLP)................. 100% 0% Buffalo Hotel Joint Venture (BHJV)...................... 50% 50% Pacific Ohio Partners (POP)............................. 100% 0% Beachwood Hotel Joint Venture (Beachwood)............... 35% 65% Columbus Hotel Joint Venture (CHJV)..................... 50% 50% Melbourne Oceanfront Hotel Associates (MOHA)............ 100% 0% Fort Myers Hotel Partnership (FMHP)..................... 100% 0%
The Lake Norman Hotels consist of a Hampton Inn and a Holiday Inn, both located in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Lake Norman Hotels, together with the hotels owned by the Boykin Partnerships, are the Initial Hotels. Boykin Lodging Company is a recently organized Ohio corporation which has been established to acquire equity interests in existing hotel properties and to consider selectively the development of new hotels. Boykin Lodging Company will use the proceeds from a proposed initial public offering to acquire the general partnership interest, representing an 85.7% equity interest (assuming conversion of the Intercompany Convertible Note), in Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., an Ohio limited partnership (the Partnership). It is proposed that the partners and shareholders of the entities owning the Initial Hotels will contribute their respective partnership interests to the Partnership in exchange for cash and partnership interests. The Partnership will use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the general partnership interest to Boykin F-31 136 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Lodging Company to retire mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Initial Hotel properties. All of the Initial Hotels will be leased to Boykin Management Company Limited Liability Company (the Initial Lessee) pursuant to operating leases which contain provisions for rent based on the revenues of the Initial Hotels. The Initial Lessee is an affiliate of BMC. Management believes that these combined financial statements result in a more meaningful presentation of the Initial Hotel businesses excluding the Lake Norman Hotels to be acquired by the Partnership and thus appropriately reflect the historical financial position and results of operations of the predecessor of the Initial Lessee. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Lake Norman Hotels have been excluded from the accompanying combined financial statements as they were not owned or managed by BMC Affiliates until February 8, 1996. Interim Unaudited Financial Information The combined financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair representation of the combined financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Accounting Periods For annual reporting purposes, all of the Boykin Partnerships except POP have been included in the accompanying combined financial statements based on a December 31 year-end. The accompanying combined financial statements as of December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 include the accounts of POP as of September 30, 1993, 1994 and 1995. In order to show comparable operations during the interim periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, POP's operating results were adjusted to exclude the three month periods October 1 to December 31, 1994 and 1995. The total revenues of POP excluded from the combined statements of operations for the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 were $2,950 and $3,328, respectively, and total net income (loss) excluded was $16 and $(69), respectively. In the opinion of management, the effect of nonconforming period ends is not material to the combined financial statements. Hotel Properties Hotel properties are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using primarily the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives: Buildings and improvements 7-40 years Furniture and equipment 3-20 years For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Boykin Partnerships adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS No. 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Accordingly, the partners and management of the Boykin Partnerships review the hotel properties for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amounts of the hotel properties may not be recoverable. When such conditions exist, management estimates the future cash flows from operations and disposition of the hotel properties. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to reduce the carrying amount to the related hotel property's estimated fair market value would be recorded and an impairment loss would be recognized. No such impairment losses were recognized in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 121. F-32 137 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; major renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or disposition of a fixed asset, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss is included in the determination of net income or loss. Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Inventories Inventories consisting primarily of food and beverages and gift store merchandise are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Cash Held in Escrow Cash held in escrow consists of amounts for real estate taxes remitted to the lenders which hold the mortgages on the hotel facilities and amounts deposited for the replacement of hotel real and personal property pursuant to the terms of certain mortgage and franchise agreements. Deferred Expenses Deferred expenses consist of initial franchise fees and deferred loan costs. Amortization of initial franchise fees is computed on a straightline basis over the terms of the franchise agreements while deferred loan costs are amortized over the terms of the related loan agreements. The amortization of deferred loan costs of $66, $66, $519, $99 and $457 for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 and the six month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively, is included in interest expense in the accompanying combined statements of operations. Accumulated amortization of deferred expenses was $620 and $1,002 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and $1,075 at June 30, 1996. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized as earned. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible. Such losses have been within management's expectations. Income Taxes The Boykin Partnerships are not subject to federal or state income taxes; however, they must file informational income tax returns and the partners must take income or loss of the Boykin Partnerships into consideration when filing their respective tax returns. Management's Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F-33 138 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED 3. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE: Mortgage notes payable consisted of the following:
DECEMBER 31, --------------------- JUNE 30, 1994 1995 1996 -------- -------- -------- Notes payable to an investment banking firm in variable monthly installments of interest at a specified incremental rate over 30 day LIBOR; semiannual payments of principal equal to a specified percentage of cash flow, as defined; remaining unpaid principal due June 1, 1998; secured by real and personal property of FHMP, MOHA, POP and BMLP (collectively, the Borrowers) having an aggregate net book value of $45,632 at December 31, 1995.

See Note (d) below............ 6,484 -- -- Mortgage note payable to a life insurance company, in monthly installments of principal and interest (at 10.875%) of $123. See Note (d) below................... 12,387 -- -- -------- -------- -------- $111,788 $122,203 $123,726 ======== ======== ======== - --------------- (a) The interest rate floats as follows:
Until June 1, 1997, 4.25% over 30 day LIBOR From then until June 1, 1998, 4.50% over 30 day LIBOR Thereafter (if applicable) 5.00% over 30 day LIBOR In addition, a service fee of .06% of the outstanding balance is required. At December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996, the interest rate was approximately 10%. Under certain conditions, the Borrowers can elect an interest deferral option whereby monthly payments of interest would be based on an interest rate not to exceed 10%. However, the excess of interest based on the normal interest rate over the deferral rate would be added to the principal balance. Semiannual principal payments are required equal to 50% of "cash flow," as defined. The percentage increases to 100% after June 1, 1998 or if the interest deferral option is elected. Such payments are to be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest on deferred interest, next to deferred interest, with the remainder to be applied to the outstanding principal balance. If certain conditions are met, the Borrowers can extend the initial maturity date by a maximum of twelve months. To extend the maturity date, the Borrowers must pay a fee equal to 1% of the then outstanding principal balance. In general, the notes are nonrecourse. However, in certain limited defined circumstances, the lender would have recourse to the Borrowers and certain BMC Affiliates. The loan agreement contains restrictive covenants with respect to, among other things, property maintenance and insurance, payment of taxes, property transfers and maintenance of specified debt service coverage ratios. The Borrowers were in compliance with the loan covenants at December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996. Monthly escrow deposits are also required to be made to fund repayments of furniture and fixtures reserves and property taxes. The payment of "additional interest" is required upon maturity or repayment in full of the notes. Such amount to be paid is equal to the product of $66,250 multiplied by (i) 4.75% until June 1, 1996; F-35 140 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED (ii) 5.25% until June 1, 1997, (iii) 6% thereafter. Under certain conditions, the rate at which such additional interest is to be calculated can be reduced. Management estimates that the additional interest to be paid will be computed at 3% if the proposed initial public offering discussed in Note 1 is completed. The "additional interest" is being charged to interest expense utilizing the effective interest rate method over the contractual term of the notes. Such amount was $583 for the year ended December 31, 1995 and $691 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996. (b) Commencing April 1996, the note requires the payment of additional interest based on annual net cash flow (Net Cash Flow Interest), as defined. The effect of Net Cash Flow Interest is to increase the effective interest rate on the obligation to 11% per annum. For the year ended December 31, 1995 and the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, $308, $154 and $137, respectively, have been provided for the payment of Net Cash Flow Interest. Upon the occurrence of a casualty, a taking, a transfer or maturity, all as defined, additional interest based on the property's appreciation in value will also be payable. In the event of prepayment, CHJV must pay an amount which brings the lender's yield for the period from origination to prepayment date to 12.75%, compounded monthly, inclusive of Fixed Interest and Net Cash Flow Interest. The mortgage agreement contains covenants which, among other restrictions, limit CHJV's capacity to incur additional debt or sell assets; limit the ability of partners of CHJV to sell or transfer their respective ownership interests; require the property to be managed by BMC; and require CHJV to make annual deposits into an escrow account for the replacement of furnishings. As of December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996, CHJV was in compliance with such covenants. (c) On January 29, 1996, the BHJV and Beachwood mortgage notes payable were refinanced with the proceeds of new mortgage notes from the same lender. The new notes carry an interest rate of 8.69% and have a five-year term. Monthly payments of principal and interest of $116 and $251 are required for the new BHJV and Beachwood mortgage notes payable, respectively, with the remaining unpaid principal amounts due at maturity. Additionally, the payment of the prepayment penalty on the previous BHJV mortgage note was financed by the proceeds of a second mortgage note in the amount of $1,246. The second note carries interest at the rate of 8.54% and fully amortizes over five years with monthly payments of principal and interest of $26. The notes require monthly deposits for taxes and furniture and fixtures replacement. The prepayment penalty for the notes is calculated based upon yield maintenance formulas. The new BHJV and Beachwood mortgage notes contain cross collateralization and cross default provisions. (d) These mortgage notes payable were refinanced in May 1995. See (a) for discussion of the terms of the new mortgage notes. Aggregate scheduled annual principal payments for the above mortgage notes payable (reflecting the terms of the BHJV and Beachwood subsequent refinancings discussed above, but excluding the BHJV second mortgage note) including the "additional interest" discussed in (a) at December 31, 1995 are as follows:
YEAR AMOUNT ----------------------------------------------------- -------- 1996................................................. $ 1,551 1997................................................. 1,751 1998................................................. 69,415 1999................................................. 1,035 2000................................................. 1,129 Thereafter........................................... 50,714 -------- $125,595 ========
F-36 141 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED All of the outstanding debt is expected to be repaid from the proceeds of the proposed initial public offering discussed in Note 1. Debt Extinguishment In May 1995, FMHP, MOHA, POP and BMLP refinanced their respective existing mortgage indebtedness, realizing a net extraordinary gain of $556 on the early extinguishment of debt. The net extraordinary gain was related to the forgiveness of $2,335 of principal due on the FMHP mortgage reduced by the payment of prepayment premiums and the writeoff of unamortized deferred financing costs on the POP and BMLP mortgages. In addition to retiring existing indebtedness, the refinancing proceeds were used to redeem partnership interests held by non-BMC Affiliate partners of BMLP, MOHA and POP (Note 7). The refinancing and concurrent payment of a prepayment penalty on the BHJV note resulted in an extraordinary loss due to the early extinguishment of debt in the amount of $1,315 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996. 4. UNUSUAL ITEM -- PROPERTY DAMAGE FROM HURRICANE: On August 2, 1995, certain hotel property of MOHA was damaged by wind-driven rain associated with hurricane Erin. The damage led to the temporary closure of the hotel until restoration of the damaged property took place. The temporary closure reduced the available room nights for the year ended December 31, 1995 by 20,430 rooms, or 27% of the otherwise available room nights. Management estimates that the temporary closure resulted in $1,261 in lost revenue, and $1,093 in lost net income. MOHA has made a business interruption insurance claim for reimbursement of the lost net income. Included in the combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 is $1,093 of income related to this claim. This income has been offset against departmental expenses and various other expense categories in the aggregate amounts of $178 and $441, respectively. In addition, MOHA has made a property insurance claim for the damage to hotel property. The difference between the proceeds to be received from this claim and the net book value of the damaged property is reflected in the combined statement of operations as an unusual gain on property insurance recovery. The costs of replacing and renovating the damaged property have been capitalized as additions to hotel property in the accompanying combined balance sheet. MOHA has a $913 insurance claim receivable at December 31, 1995 ($663 at June 30, 1996). The receivable at December 31, 1995 is comprised of $320 for property damage and $593 for business interruption. MOHA has submitted its claims to its insurance carrier, and believes that the claims are in accordance with the terms of the related insurance policies. 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: A substantial portion of the hotels' management and accounting functions are performed by BMC, for a fee computed as specified in each hotel's management agreement. The base management fee is based on percentages of hotel revenues of 3% or 3.5%. In addition, if specified operating results are achieved, an incentive fee is due to BMC. The management agreements with BMC expire at various dates through September 30, 2010. Certain other costs relating to purchasing and design services are incurred by an affiliate of BMC and billed to the hotels. Such purchases approximated $133, $148, $143, $47 and $50 for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995 and the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Furthermore, the hotels made purchases of hotel furnishings through an affiliate of BMC. These purchases F-37 142 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED amounted to approximately $1,701, $1,823, $2,531, $666 and $698 for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994, and 1995 and the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Receivables from and payables to affiliates represent amounts due from or to BMC and its affiliates applicable to insurance charges and various other items. Included in accounts payable to affiliates at December 31, 1994 is $171 due from FMHP to BMC for loan guarantee fees related to the FMHP mortgage which was refinanced in May 1995. The fees due were paid in 1995. Until October 1994, the hotels maintained a "fully insured program under a Minimum Premium Contract" for various insurance benefits offered to enrolled employees under an insurance plan which included other entities affiliated with BMC. The hotels provided a pro-rata share of expense required by the plan which was based upon enrolled employees at each hotel. The total amount of such shared expenses billed to the hotels approximated $1,617 and $1,176 for 1993 and 1994, respectively. In October 1994, the plan was terminated and replaced with a fully-insured plan which requires the payment of monthly premiums. 6. ADVANCES FROM PARTNERS: Partner advances consisted of the following:
DECEMBER 31, --------------------- JUNE 30, 1994 1995 1996 -------- -------- -------- Advances from partners used to complete construction and to fund operation, bearing interest at 10% per annum. Note (a)............................................... $ 2,637 $ 2,637 $ 2,637 Unsecured notes payable to partners, with interest at bank prime rate. Note (b).............................. 4,790 -- -- Second mortgage note payable to a partner in monthly installments of principal and interest (at 10.25%) of $8. Note (c)........................................... 529 -- -- Accrued interest payable on advances from partners. Note (b).................................................... 7,242 5,114 5,088 -------- -------- -------- $ 15,198 $ 7,751 $ 7,725 ======== ======== ======== - --------------- (a) Repayment of the loans and related accrued interest is determined by the net cash flow, as defined, of CHJV, in accordance with the priority of payments outlined in the partnership agreement. In February 1996, CHJV made a $400 payment of interest to the partners on their advances. (b) In connection with the refinancing discussed in Note 3 and the change in ownership discussed in Note 7, principal and interest aggregating $7,623 were contributed to the capital of MOHA in May 1995. (c) In connection with the refinancing discussed in Note 3, retired in May 1995.
Total interest expense on partner advances was $964, $1,073 and $739 for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and $373 and $374 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. 7. CHANGES IN OWNERSHIP: In May 1995, in connection with the refinancing discussed in Note 3, MOHA, BMLP and POP redeemed their respective partnership interests held by non-BMC Affiliates and BMC Affiliates were admitted as new partners. In addition, FMHP redeemed its partnership interest held by BMLP. As a result of the redemptions, BMC Affiliates own 100% of these partnerships. The aggregate cash redemption price paid to non-BMC Affiliates was $9,357. For each partnership, the difference between the redemption price paid and the related capital account balances of the partners redeemed was recorded as an adjustment of the carrying value of the respective investments in hotel properties of MOHA, FMHP, BMLP and POP. F-38 143 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED The purchase accounting adjustment recorded, which was equal to the cash paid to redeem the partnership interests plus the deficit capital account balances of the redeemed partners at the time of the redemptions, was an aggregate increase in the carrying value of the investments in hotel property as follows: Buildings and improvements................... $10,230 Furniture and equipment...................... 3,760 -------- $13,990 =======
Following is pro forma data assuming that the redemptions of the non-BMC affiliates discussed above and the related refinancing discussed in Note 3 had occurred at the beginning of 1995. The pro forma adjustments to historical operating results are (i) to increase depreciation expense for the effect of the purchase accounting adjustments to the carrying values of investments in hotel properties; (ii) to adjust management fee expense for FMHP, MOHA, BMLP and POP to 4.5% of hotel revenues as required by the terms of the refinancing; and, (iii) to increase interest expense to reflect the terms of the new mortgage debt and the amortization of related deferred financing costs.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: Claims and Legal Matters Certain of the hotels are involved in claims and legal matters incidental to their businesses. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the hotels. Franchise Agreements Under the terms of hotel franchise agreements, annual payments for franchise royalties and reservation and advertising services are due from the hotels. For six of the hotels, fees are computed based upon percentages of gross room revenues. At December 31, 1995, the franchise royalty fees payable by the hotels ranged from 3% to 5% of room revenues while the fees for advertising services ranged from .8% to 3.5%. Effective January 1, 1996, the royalty fee to be paid by BMLP increased by 2% of room revenues. For MOHA, the payment is a flat fee ranging from $6 per month in 1994 to $12 per month in 1998; in 1999 and thereafter, the fee at MOHA will be at 6% of gross room revenues. The franchise agreements expire at various dates through 2014. During 1992, CHJV amended and extended its franchise agreement. Under the terms of the amended agreement, no fee was due during 1992; franchise fees commenced in August 1993 at a reduced percentage of room revenues, increasing gradually through 1997. In January 1994, MOHA executed an amended franchise agreement. The amended agreement provided for the forgiveness of $600 of unpaid fees accrued under the original franchise agreement through December 31, 1993. Such amount is reflected as a reduction of franchisor royalties and other charges for 1994. The franchise agreements contain provisions whereby the franchisor would be entitled to additional payments in the event the franchisees would terminate the franchise agreements prior to maturity. F-39 144 INITIAL HOTELS EXCLUDING LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Other As a result of the proposed initial public offering discussed in Note 1 and the resulting prepayment of the mortgage notes payable, prepayment penalties of approximately $3,340 will be due upon closing. See Note 3 for a discussion of additional interest payment requirements with respect to certain of the mortgage notes. The land on which the Berkeley Marina Marriott is located is leased under an operating lease agreement expiring in 2033 which can be extended to 2051. The lease requires minimum annual rentals of $100, and percentage rentals based on hotel revenues. BMLP is responsible for all taxes, insurance and maintenance on the property. Rental expense charged to operations for the land lease were as follows:

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 requires disclosure about fair value for all financial instruments, whether or not recognized for financial statement purposes. Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts which could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash Equivalents Management estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Long-Term Debt Management estimates that the fair values of mortgage and other long-term debt approximate carrying values based upon the hotels' effective borrowing rate for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION: Organization The Lake Norman Hotels consist of the following hotels:
NUMBER OF PROPERTY NAME OWNER LOCATION ROOMS - ------------- --------------------- ------------------------ --------- Holiday Inn Norman Associates Charlotte, North Carolina 119 Hampton Inn Norman Associates II Charlotte, North Carolina 117
Belmont Land and Investment Company, DMC Properties, Inc. and CLT Development Corp. each hold a one-third interest in both Norman Associates and Norman Associates II. In February 1996, B.B.G., I, L.L.C. (BBG), owned 46% by certain shareholders of The Boykin Company and 54% by a third party, acquired the Lake Norman Hotels for $9,721 from Norman Associates and Norman Associates II. Basis of Presentation Boykin Lodging Company is a recently organized Ohio corporation which has been established to acquire equity interests in existing hotel properties and to consider selectively the development of new hotels. Boykin Lodging Company will use the proceeds from a proposed initial public offering to acquire the general partnership interest, representing an 85.7% equity interest (assuming conversion of the Intercompany Convertible Note), in Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., an Ohio limited partnership (the Partnership). It is proposed that the shareholders of BBG will contribute their interests in the Lake Norman Hotels to the Partnership in exchange for partnership interests. The Partnership will use a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the general partnership interest to Boykin Lodging Company to retire mortgage indebtedness encumbering the Lake Norman Hotels. The accompanying combined financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and include the accounts of the Lake Norman Hotels using their historical cost basis. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Management believes that these combined financial statements result in a more meaningful presentation of the Lake Norman Hotel businesses to be acquired by the Partnership and thus appropriately reflect the historical financial position and results of operations. Interim Unaudited Financial Information The combined financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and the periods January 1, to February 7, 1996 (period prior to acquisition by BBG) and February 8, to June 30, 1996 (period after acquisition by BBG) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the combined financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. The unaudited pro forma data for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996 reflect pro forma operating results assuming that BBG had acquired the Lake Norman Hotels as of the beginning of the respective accounting periods. The primary pro forma adjustments to historical operating results are (i) to increase interest expense to reflect the terms of the acquisition debt; (ii) to increase depreciation expense for the effect of the purchase accounting writeup of the investments in hotel properties; and (iii) to increase management fee expense to 6% of hotel revenues as discussed in Note 5. F-48 153 LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Accounting Periods For annual reporting purposes, the Lake Norman Hotels have been included in the accompanying combined financial statements based on a December 31 year-end. Investments in Hotel Properties Hotel properties are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using accelerated and straight-line methods based upon the following estimated useful lives: Buildings and improvements 10-39 years Furniture and equipment 5-7 years For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Lake Norman Hotels adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Accordingly, the partners and management of the Lake Norman Hotels review the hotel properties for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the hotel properties may not be recoverable. When such conditions exist, management estimates the future cash flows from operations and disposition of the hotel properties. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an adjustment to the related estimated fair market value would be recorded and an impairment loss would be recognized. No such impairment losses have been recognized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; major renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or disposition of a fixed asset, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss is included in the determination of net income. Cash and Cash Equivalents All highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Deferred Expenses Deferred expenses consist primarily of deferred loan costs, which are amortized over the terms of the related loan agreements and deferred franchise fees which are amortized over the terms of the related franchise agreements. The amortization of deferred loan costs of $7, $7 and $7 for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and $3, $1 and $14 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1995, the period January 1, to February 7, 1996 and the period February 8, to June 30, 1996, respectively, has been included in interest expense in the accompanying combined statements of operations. Accumulated amortization of deferred expenses was $59, $69 and $39 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, and June 30, 1996, respectively. Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized as earned. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible. Such losses have been within management's expectations. Income Taxes The Lake Norman Hotels are not subject to federal or state income taxes; however, they must file informational income tax returns and the partners must take income or loss of the Lake Norman Hotels into consideration when filing their respective tax returns. F-49 154 LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Management's Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. ACQUISITION BY BBG: On February 8, 1996, BBG acquired certain assets of the Lake Norman Hotels from Norman Associates and Norman Associates II in exchange for aggregate cash consideration of $9,721. The purchase price allocation was as follows: Land............................................. $1,190 Buildings and improvements....................... 7,088 Furniture and equipment.......................... 1,327 Other assets..................................... 116 ------ $9,721 ======
BBG funded the purchase price with mortgage debt borrowings of $9,500 and contributed capital. Norman Associates and Norman Associates II used a portion of the sales proceeds to retire the mortgage notes encumbering the properties. BBG also acquired certain food and beverage assets from the operator of those facilities and canceled the lease (see Note 6). 4. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE:

DECEMBER 31, ----------------- JUNE 30, 1994 1995 1996 ------ ------ --------- Mortgage note payable to a bank in monthly installments of principal and interest at the rate of .25% over the bank's prime rate or 1.75% over the 30, 60 or 90 day LIBOR rate, with a floor of 5% and a ceiling of 11.25% through December 31, 1996 and 12.25% through December 31, 1997. The interest rate at December 31, 1995 was 7.7%. The fixed monthly payment of principal and interest is adjusted and updated semi-annually for interest rate changes. The unpaid principal and interest is due in full December 31, 1997. The note is collateralized by certain real and personal property having a net book value of $2,950 at December 31, 1995 and is guaranteed by the partners of Norman Associates II......................................................... 2,576 2,505 -- ------ ------ --------- $5,318 $5,057 $ 9,618 ====== ====== ======== - --------------- (a) $600 of the first mortgage note and the full amount of the second mortgage note are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the shareholders of BBG. (b) The payment of commitment fees and other financing fees is required upon maturity or repayment in full of the notes. The aggregate amount of the fees to be paid increases from $337 if repayment occurs within the first loan year to $910 if the notes are retired at the maturity date. Management estimates that the additional interest to be paid will be $337 if the proposed initial public offering discussed in Note 1 is completed. The additional interest is being charged to interest expense over a one-year period due to the anticipated retirement of the notes within one year.

5. COMMITMENTS: Franchise Agreements Under the terms of hotel franchise agreements expiring in 2007 and 2010 with respect to the Holiday Inn and Hampton Inn, respectively, annual payments for franchise royalties and reservation and advertising services are due from the Lake Norman Hotels. Franchisor royalties and marketing contributions are computed based upon percentages (ranging from 5.5% to 7%) of gross room revenue. The franchise agreements contain provisions whereby the franchisors would be entitled to additional payments in the event the franchisees would terminate the franchise agreement prior to maturity. F-51 156 LAKE NORMAN HOTELS NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED Management Agreements Prior to February 8, 1996, the Lake Norman Hotels were operated under management agreements which provided for a management fee of 3% of gross revenues in exchange for management services. Effective February 8, 1996, Boykin Management Company (BMC) assumed management responsibilities for the Lake Norman Hotels. The management agreements with BMC require the payment of a management fee equal to 5% of hotel revenues. The management agreements with BMC expire December 31, 1999. BBG also pays a 1% asset management fee to an affiliate of the third-party owner. Other As a result of the proposed initial public offering discussed in Note 1 and the resulting prepayment of the Lake Norman Hotels' mortgage notes payable, prepayment penalties of approximately $234 will be due upon closing. See Note 4 for a discussion of commitment fees and other financing fee payment requirements with respect to the mortgage notes payable. 6. HOLIDAY INN RESTAURANT: Consistent with the franchise agreement, the Holiday Inn must maintain a restaurant on the premises. In August 1993, the hotel ceased operation of the restaurant, lounge and meeting/catering facilities and entered into a lease with a third party to continue to maintain the food and beverage operation. The five-year lease provided for a base rent of $5 per month plus a percentage rent based on the gross revenues of the restaurant. In August 1994, the hotel waived the base rent and in May 1995 the percentage rent was also waived. In February 1996, the lease was terminated in connection with the sale of the hotel to BBG. BBG also acquired the assets and business of the operator at the same time of its purchase of the hotel. See Note 3 for discussion of the sale. Rental income of $49, $43 and $6 in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, is included in other revenue in the accompanying combined statements of operations. 7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 requires disclosure about fair value for all financial instruments, whether or not recognized for financial statement purposes. Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts which could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash Equivalents Management estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Long-Term Debt Management estimates that the fair value of mortgage debt approximates carrying value based upon the Lake Norman Hotels' effective borrowing rate for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

AND BOPA DESIGN COMPANY NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) (AMOUNTS AND DISCLOSURES FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1996 ARE UNAUDITED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESSES: Boykin Management Company (BMC), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Boykin Company (TBC), and certain of its subsidiaries manage and operate full and limited service hotels located throughout the United States pursuant to management agreements. See Note 4 for further discussion of the management agreements. Purchasing Concepts, Inc. (PCI), related to TBC through common ownership, provides national purchasing services to hotels and restaurants. Bopa Design Company (doing business as Spectrum Services), a wholly owned subsidiary of TBC since January 1, 1996, provides interior design services to hotels and other businesses. Certain of the hotels managed by BMC and served by PCI and Spectrum Services are related to BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services through common ownership. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION: Pursuant to certain currently contemplated formation transactions, BMC and Spectrum Services will merge into subsidiaries of Boykin Management Company Limited Liability Company (BMCL), a newly formed Ohio Limited Liability Company. Prior to such mergers, BMC and Spectrum Services will transfer certain assets and liabilities to TBC pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement. In addition, PCI will contribute its assets to a subsidiary of BMCL and that subsidiary will assume PCI's liabilities. BMCL and its subsidiaries will act as the successors to the businesses of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services and as the lessee of certain hotels affiliated with TBC which are to be acquired by Boykin Hotel Properties, L.P., a partnership in which Boykin Lodging Company, will be the general partner. The accompanying financial statements present on a historical combined basis the net assets of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services to be merged into or contributed to BMCL and its subsidiaries and the related revenues and expenses of such businesses. Assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services which are not to be merged into or contributed to BMCL and its subsidiaries have been excluded from the accompanying financial statements. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements are not intended to be a complete presentation of the combined assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services (collectively, the Combined Entities). BMC has a March 31 fiscal year-end, whereas PCI and Spectrum Services utilize calendar year-ends. The accompanying audited financial statements combine the accounts of BMC as of March 31, 1995 and 1996 and for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1996 with the accounts of PCI and Spectrum Services as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, respectively. Such combined periods are referred to as the years ended March 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996. The accompanying unaudited financial statements combine the accounts of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services as of June 30, 1996 and for the six-month interim periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1996. As BMCL, BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services are related through common ownership there will be no purchase accounting adjustments to the historical carrying values of the assets and liabilities of BMC, PCI and Spectrum Services upon merger into or contribution to the subsidiaries of BMCL. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. F-56 161 BOYKIN MANAGEMENT COMPANY, PURCHASING CONCEPTS, INC.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; major renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or disposition of a fixed asset, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss is included in the statement of revenues and expenses. Management's Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 4. REVENUES: BMC has management agreements with several entities to manage the operations of hotels and restaurants. Generally, BMC receives a fee based upon percentages of revenues. In certain management contracts, BMC is entitled to additional incentive fees in the event the managed property achieves specified operating results. Certain contracts also include limitations on management fees, or restrict payment of earned F-57 162 BOYKIN MANAGEMENT COMPANY, PURCHASING CONCEPTS, INC. AND BOPA DESIGN COMPANY NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED fees to BMC based upon the defined cash flow of the related property. PCI provides national purchasing services to hotels and restaurants and Spectrum Services provides interior design services to hotels and other businesses. Revenue is recognized as earned pursuant to the terms of hotel management agreements with respect to BMC, and as the services of PCI and Spectrum Services are rendered. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible.

As an incentive to enter into the lease, BMC received a $70 payment from the lessor which is being recognized as a reduction of rent expense on a straight-line basis over the five-year lease term. The Combined Entities are involved in claims and legal matters incidental to their businesses. In the opinion of management of the Combined Entities, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material impact on the financial position or the results of operations of the Combined Entities. 7.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 requires disclosure about fair value for all financial instruments, whether or not recognized for financial statement purposes. Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments is based on pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 1996 and June 30, 1996. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts which could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodology may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Cash Equivalents Management estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Loans and Interest Receivable Management estimates that the fair value of the loans and interest receivable from Boykin Columbus Joint Venture (BCJV) approximates carrying value based upon the discounted expected cash flows at an interest rate commensurate with the creditworthiness of BCJV. Notes Payable Management estimates that the fair values of notes payable approximate carrying values based upon BMC's effective borrowing rate for issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.
