LODGIAN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Throughout this Form 10-Q, we will use the terms “Lodgian,” “we,” “our,” and “us,” to refer to Lodgian, Inc. and, unless the context otherwise requires or expressly states, our subsidiaries.
1. Business Summary
     We are one of the largest independent owners and operators of full-service hotels in the United States in terms of our number of guest rooms, as reported by Hotel Business in the 2005 Green Book issue published in December 2004. We are considered an independent owner and operator because we do not operate our hotels under our own name. We operate substantially all of our hotels under nationally recognized brands, such as “Crowne Plaza,” “Holiday Inn,” “Marriott,” and “Hilton.” As of August 1, 2005, we operated 80 hotels with an aggregate of 14,684 rooms, located in 30 states and Canada. Of the 80 hotels, 76 hotels, with an aggregate of 13,718 rooms, are part of our continuing operations, while four hotels, with an aggregate of 966 rooms, are held for sale and classified in discontinued operations. Our current portfolio of 80 hotels consists of:
    76 hotels that we wholly own and operate through subsidiaries;
 
    three hotels that we operate in joint ventures in which we have a 50% or greater voting equity interest and exercise control (see Note 2 for discussion on buyout of joint venture partner at one of our hotels); and
 
    one hotel that we operate in a joint venture in which we have a 30% non-controlling equity interest.
     We consolidate all of these hotels in our financial statements, other than the one hotel in which we hold a non-controlling equity interest and which we account for under the equity method.
     Our hotels are primarily full-service properties that offer food and beverage services, meeting space and banquet facilities and compete in the midscale and upscale market segments of the lodging industry. As of August 1, 2005, we operated all but two of our hotels under franchises obtained from nationally recognized hospitality franchisors. We operate 51 of our hotels under franchises obtained from InterContinental Hotels Group (“IHG”) as franchisor of the Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Select and Holiday Inn Express brands. We operate 16 of our hotels under franchises from Marriott International as franchisor of the Marriott, Courtyard by Marriott, Fairfield Inn by Marriott, Springhill Suites by Marriott and Residence Inn by Marriott brands. We operate another 11 hotels under other nationally recognized brands. We believe that these strong national brands afford us many benefits such as guest loyalty and market share premiums.
2. General
     Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lodgian, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries and three joint ventures in which Lodgian, Inc. has a controlling financial interest (owns a 50% or greater voting equity interest and exercises control). On April 18, 2005, we acquired for $0.7 million our joint venture partner’s 40% interest in the Crowne Plaza hotel located in Macon, Georgia, which is now consolidated as a wholly-owned subsidiary. We believe we have control of the joint ventures when we manage and have control of the joint ventures’ assets and operations. We report the third party partners’ share of the net income or loss of these joint ventures and their share of the joint ventures’ equity as minority interest. We include in other assets our investment in the hotel in which we hold a minority interest and which we account for under the equity method. We report our share of the income or loss of this minority-owned hotel as part of interest income and other. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
     The accounting policies which we follow for quarterly financial reporting are the same as those which we disclosed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

     During 2003, we developed a portfolio improvement strategy which was consistent with our goals of operating a portfolio of profitable, well-maintained and appealing hotels at superior locations in strong markets. In accordance with this strategy and our efforts to reduce debt and interest costs, we identified 19 hotels, one office building and three land parcels for sale. In January 2005, we classified three additional hotels as held for sale. Between November 1, 2003 and June 30, 2005, we sold the office building, 16 of the 22 hotels and two of the three land parcels. As of June 30, 2005, our hotel portfolio consisted of 82 hotels, 76 of which represent our continuing operations portfolio (including one hotel in which we have a non-controlling equity interest which we do not consolidate). We believe that our held for sale assets as of June 30, 2005 remain properly classified in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”
     In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2005, the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004. Our results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of our results for the entire year. You should read these financial statements in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Form 10-K.
     As we prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), we reclassify certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period’s presentation. We also make estimates and assumptions which affect:
    the reported amounts of assets and liabilities;
 
    the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; and
 
    the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements.
     Our actual results could differ from our estimates.
Stock-based Compensation
     On November 25, 2002, we adopted a Stock Incentive Plan which replaced the stock option plan previously in place. In accordance with the Stock Incentive Plan, and prior to the completion of our public offering of common stock on June 25, 2004, we were permitted to grant awards to acquire up to 353,333 shares of common stock to our directors, officers, or other key employees or consultants as determined by a committee appointed by our Board of Directors. Awards may consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, performance share awards, section 162(m) awards or other awards determined by the committee. We cannot grant stock options pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan at an exercise price which is less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of the grant. Vesting, exercisability, payment and other restrictions pertaining to any awards made pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan are determined by the Committee. At our annual meeting held on March 19, 2004, stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the Stock Incentive Plan to, among other things, increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance thereunder by 29,667 immediately and, in the event we consummated a public offering of our common stock, by an additional amount to be determined pursuant to a formula. With the completion of our public offering of common stock on June 25, 2004, the total number of shares available for issuance under our Stock Incentive Plan increased to 3,301,058 shares.
     On April 9, 2004, the Company issued to our CEO, Thomas Parrington, 1,382 restricted stock units in accordance with his employment agreement. The restricted stock units vested on April 9, 2005 and were converted into an equal number of shares of common stock.
     On May 9, 2005, the Company awarded stock options to acquire 392,500 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain of the Company’s employees and to independent members of the board of directors. Each of the four independent members of the board of directors received non-qualified options to acquire 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The exercise price of the awards granted was $9.05, the average of the high and low

market prices of our common stock on the day of the grant, and the shares vest in three equal annual installments beginning on May 9, 2006. All options expire ten years from the date of grant.

     We account for stock option grants in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. The income tax benefit, if any, associated with the exercise of stock options is credited to additional paid-in capital. Under APB No. 25, if the exercise price of our employee stock options is equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. Under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (as amended by SFAS No. 148), compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the estimated value of the award and is recognized over the service (or vesting) period.
     Had the compensation cost of our stock option plan been recognized under SFAS No. 123, based on the fair market value at the grant dates, our pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been as follows:

3. Discontinued Operations
     During 2003, we identified 19 hotels, one office building and three land parcels for sale as part of our portfolio improvement strategy and our efforts to reduce debt and interest costs. At December 31, 2004, seven hotels and one land parcel were held for sale. In January 2005, we identified three additional hotels as held for sale. Between January 1, 2005 and June 30, 2005, we sold four hotels for an aggregate sales price of $13.5 million, all of which was used to pay down debt. Accordingly, at June 30, 2005, six hotels and one land parcel were held for sale.
     Management considers an asset held for sale when the following criteria per SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”) are met:
  a)   Management commits to a plan to sell the asset;
 
  b)   The asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition;
 
  c)   An active marketing plan to sell the asset at a reasonable price has been initiated;
 
  d)   The sale of the asset is probable within one year; and
 
  e)   It is unlikely that significant changes to the plan to sell the asset will be made.
     Upon designation of a property as an asset held for sale and in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the Company records the carrying value of the property at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs, and the Company ceases depreciation of the asset.

Table of Contents

     All losses and gains on assets sold and held for sale (including any related impairment charges) are included in “(Loss) income from discontinued operations before income taxes” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. All assets held for sale and the liabilities related to these assets are separately disclosed in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amount the Company will ultimately realize could differ from the amount recorded in the financial statements.
     In accordance with SFAS No. 144, we have included the hotel assets sold during 2004 and 2005 as well as the hotel assets held for sale at June 30, 2005 (including any related impairment charges) in Discontinued Operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets held for sale at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the liabilities related to these assets are separately disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
     Consistent with our accounting policy on asset impairment, and in accordance with SFAS No. 144, the reclassification of assets from held for use to held for sale necessitates a determination of fair value less costs of sale. The fair values of the assets held for sale are based on the estimated selling prices less estimated costs to sell. We determined the estimated selling prices in conjunction with our real estate brokers. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales. We record impairment charges and write down respective hotel asset carrying values if their carrying values exceed the estimated selling prices less costs to sell. During the three months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, we recorded impairment charges of $1.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, on assets held for sale. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, we recorded impairment charges of $3.7 million and $2.6 million, respectively, on assets held for sale. The impairment of long-lived assets held for sale of $1.8 million recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2005 represents the write-down of two hotels held for sale and a recapture of impairment of $0.1 million on two hotels that were previously impaired as outlined below:
  a)   an additional $0.6 million on the Holiday Inn Rolling Meadows, IL to reflect the lowered estimated selling price of the hotel; and
 
  b)   an additional $1.3 million on the Holiday Inn St. Louis North, MO to reflect the reduced selling price on this hotel.
          The impairment of long-lived assets held for sale of $0.5 million recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2004 represents the write-down of two hotels held for sale. As a result of these evaluations, during the second quarter of 2004 we recorded impairment losses as follows:
  a)   $0.2 million on the Downtown Plaza Hotel Cincinnati, OH hotel to adjust for the further reduction in the estimated selling price of this hotel; and
 
  b)   $0.3 million on the Holiday Inn Morgantown, WV to adjust for the further reduction in the estimated selling price of this hotel.
     We have changed the method for preparing the cash flow statement to combine cash flows for continuing and discontinued operations. All prior periods were changed to reflect this change in presentation. Discontinued operations have not been segregated in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

     Assets related to discontinued operations consist primarily of real estate, net of accumulated depreciation. Liabilities related to discontinued operations consist primarily of mortgage notes payable. The following is a summary of the balance sheet information for discontinued operations:

4. Cash, Restricted
     At June 30, 2005, our $13.6 million of restricted cash consisted of amounts reserved for letter of credit collateral, a deposit required by our bankers, and cash reserved pursuant to certain loan agreements.
     In our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2005, we changed the classification of changes in restricted cash balances to present such changes as an investing activity. We previously presented such changes as an operating activity. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2004, were changed to reflect this change which resulted in a $2.5 million decrease in investing cash flows and a corresponding increase to operating cash flows from the amounts previously reported.

Mortgage Debt
     On June 25, 2004, we closed on the $370 million Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending, Inc. (“Merrill Lynch Mortgage”) refinance (“Refinancing Debt”) secured by 64 of our hotels at the time of closing. As of August 1, 2005, nine hotels have since been sold. We refinanced (1) our outstanding mortgage debt (“Merrill Lynch Exit Financing”) with Merrill Lynch Mortgage which, as of June 25, 2004, had a balance of $290.9 million, (2) certain of our outstanding mortgage debt (the “Lehman Financing”) with Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. (“Lehman”) which, as of June 25, 2004, had a balance of $56.1 million, and (3) our outstanding mortgage debt on the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Macon, Georgia which, as of June 25, 2004, had a balance of $6.9 million.
     Immediately after closing, the Refinancing Debt consisted of a loan of $110 million bearing a floating rate of interest (the “Floating Rate Debt”). At June 30, 2005, 21 hotels secured this loan. When the loan was closed, 29 hotels secured this loan. Four loans totaling $260 million, each bearing a fixed interest rate of 6.58% (the “Fixed Rate Debt”), are secured by 35 of our hotels. Merrill Lynch Mortgage also has the right to further divide the Refinancing Debt into first priority mortgage loans and mezzanine loans. Three of the four loans had been securitized at June 30, 2005.
     Except for certain defeasance provisions, we cannot prepay the Fixed Rate Debt except during the 60 days prior to maturity. We may, after the earlier of June 25,2008 or the second anniversary of the securitization of any Fixed Rate Debt, defease such Fixed Rate Debt, in whole, or in part.
     On April 29, 2005, we entered into an amendment with Merrill Lynch to modify certain of the provisions of the Floating Rate Loan. Under the terms of the amendment, Merrill Lynch agreed to allow the release of the Holiday Inn St. Louis, Missouri as collateral under the loan in exchange for debt pay down of $4.8 million. Approximately $2.6 million of this amount was paid through the release of certain reserves held on other properties which were sold or were expected to be sold in the near future. We paid the balance of the release price, approximately $2.2 million, from our cash balances. In addition to the release of the St. Louis property from the collateral pool, the amendment provided for the following:

13


Table of Contents

    Extension of the initial maturity from June 30, 2006 to January 11, 2007. We still maintain the option, subject to certain conditions, to extend the loan for up to three years from the new initial maturity date in January 2007;
 
    Once the Holiday Inn Select in Niagara Falls, New York is sold, three additional properties in the floating rate pool will be classified as “sale properties.” Once classified as “sale properties,” these hotels will be able to be released from the collateral pool by payment of the greater of (a) 100% of the aggregate allocated loan amount (lowered from 125%) and (b) the net sales proceeds of the property;
 
    The prepayment penalty, which is currently 3% and dropped to 1% in July 2005, has been further reduced for the three additional sale properties after July 2005 to 0.5%; and
 
    Certain required capital and environmental repairs under the original Floating Rate Loan have been determined not to be necessary and have been removed as requirements under the loan.
     As a result of these modifications in the terms of the Floating Rate Loan, the Floating Rate Debt has an initial maturity of January 2007. The Floating Rate Debt is a 2 1/2 year loan (including the six month extension) with three one-year extension options and bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.40%. The first extension option will be available to us only if no defaults exist and we have entered into the requisite interest rate cap agreement. The second and third extension options will be available to us only if no defaults exist, a minimum debt yield ratio of 13% is met, and minimum debt service coverage ratios of 1.3x for the second extension and 1.35x for the third extension are met. An extension fee of 0.25% of the outstanding Floating Rate Debt is payable if we opt to exercise each of the second and third extensions. We may prepay the Floating Rate Debt in whole or in part, subject to a prepayment penalty in the amount of 1% of the amount prepaid. Repayments of debt related to assets held for sale at June 25, 2004, are exempt from the prepayment penalty except as noted above.
     The Refinancing Debt provides that when either (i) the debt yield ratio for the hotels securing the Floating Rate Debt or any Fixed Rate Loan for the trailing 12-month period is below 9% during the first year, 10% during the next 18 months and 11%, 12% and 13% during each of the next three years (in the case of the Floating Rate Debt to the extent extended), or (ii) in the case of the Floating Rate Debt (to the extent extended), the debt service coverage ratio is less than 1.30x in the fourth year or 1.35x in the fifth year, excess cash flows produced by the mortgaged hotels securing the applicable loan (after payment of operating expenses, management fees, required reserves, service fees, principal and interest) must be deposited in a restricted cash account. These funds can be used for the prepayment of the applicable loan in an amount required to satisfy the applicable test, capital expenditures reasonably approved by the lender with respect to the hotels securing the applicable loan, and scheduled principal and interest payments due on the Floating Rate Debt of up to $0.9 million or any Fixed Rate Loan of up to $525,000, as applicable. Funds will no longer be deposited into the restricted cash account when the debt yield ratio and, if applicable, the debt service coverage ratio are sustained above the minimum requirements for three consecutive months and there are no defaults.
     As of June 30, 2005, our debt yield ratios were above the minimum requirements for the four Fixed Rate Loans and the Floating Rate Loan.
     If the Company does not comply with the terms of a franchise agreement, following notice and an opportunity to cure, the franchisor has the right to terminate the agreement, which could lead to a default under one or more of its loan agreements and which could materially and adversely affect the Company. If a franchise agreement is terminated, the Company will either select an alternative franchisor or operate the hotel independent of any franchisor. However, terminating or changing the franchise affiliation of a hotel could require the Company to incur significant expenses, including franchise termination payments and capital expenditures associated with the change of a brand. Moreover, the loss of a franchise agreement could have a material adverse effect upon the operations or the underlying value of the hotel covered by the franchise because of the loss of associated guest loyalty, name recognition, marketing support and centralized reservation systems provided by the franchisor. Loss of a franchise agreement may result in a default under, and acceleration of, the related mortgage debt. In particular, the Company would be in default under the Refinancing Debt if the Company experiences either:
    multiple franchise agreement defaults and the continuance thereof beyond all notice and grace periods for hotels whose allocated loan amounts total 10% or more of the outstanding principal amount of such Refinancing Debt;

14


Table of Contents

    with regard to the Floating Rate Debt, either the termination of franchise agreements for more than two properties or the termination of franchise agreements for hotels whose allocated loan amounts represent more than 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the floating rate debt, and such hotels continue to operate for more than five consecutive days without being subject to replacement franchise agreements;
 
    with regard to the Fixed Rate Debt, either the termination of franchise agreements for more than one property or the termination of franchise agreements for hotels whose allocated loan amounts represent more than 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the fixed rate loan, and such hotels continue to operate for more than five consecutive days without being subject to replacement franchise agreements; or
 
    a franchise termination for any hotel currently subject to a franchise agreement that remains without a franchise agreement for more than six months.
     A single franchise agreement termination could materially and adversely affect the Company’s revenues, cash flow and liquidity.
     Each loan comprising the Refinancing Debt is non-recourse; however, we have agreed to indemnify Merrill Lynch Mortgage in certain situations, such as fraud, waste, misappropriation of funds, certain environmental matters, asset transfers in violation of the loan agreements, or violation of certain single-purpose entity covenants. In addition, each loan comprising the Refinancing Debt will become a full recourse loan in certain limited cases such as bankruptcy of a borrower or Lodgian. During the term of the Refinancing Debt, we are required to fund, on a monthly basis, a reserve for furniture, fixtures and equipment equal to 4% of the previous month’s gross revenues from the hotels securing each of the respective loans comprising the Refinancing Debt.
     Other loan costs incurred as a part of the Refinancing Debt, totaling $5.4 million, were deferred and are being amortized using the effective yield method over five years for the Fixed Rate Debt and 3 1/2 years (including the six month extension) for the Floating Rate Debt.
     We incurred an additional $0.2 million in expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2005 related to the modifications on the Refinancing Debt. This amount is included in corporate and other expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.
     As of June 30, 2005, we were not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio (“DSCR”) requirement of the loan from Column Financial secured by nine of our hotels, primarily due to the fact that one of the hotels securing this loan (New Orleans Airport Plaza Hotel) was not, until recently, affiliated with a national brand and recently underwent a major renovation. The renovation is now complete and the hotel was reopened as a Radisson during May 2005. The total investment we made on renovating and rebranding this property was $5.7 million. In addition, we will be completing capital expenditures of approximately $8.8 million on three other hotels in this loan pool in 2005 and $0.5 million in 2006 to complete the renovation of one of these hotels.
     Under the terms of the Column Financial loan agreement, until the required DSCR is met, the lender is permitted to require the borrowers to deposit all revenues from the mortgaged properties into an account controlled by the lender. The revenues are then disbursed to pay property expenses in accordance with the loan agreement. In June 2005, the Company was notified by the lender that it was not in compliance with the debt service coverage requirement and would have to establish a restricted cash account whereby all cash generated by the property be deposited in an account from which all payments of interest, principal, operating expenses and escrows (insurance, property taxes and ground rent) would be disbursed. The lender may apply excess proceeds after payment of expenses to additional principal payments. As of June 30, 2005, the restricted cash account had not been established. This loan can be repaid in full without penalty on the first day of the month following a 30 day written notice.
     Additionally, as of June 30, 2005, the Company was not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio requirement of the loan from Column Financial secured by one hotel in Phoenix, Arizona. The primary reason why the debt service coverage ratio was below the required threshold is that the property underwent an extensive renovation in 2004 and the first quarter of 2005 in order to convert from a Holiday Inn Select to a Crowne Plaza. The renovation caused substantial revenue displacement which, in turn, negatively affected the financial performance of this hotel. Under the terms of the Column Financial loan agreement until the required DSCR is met,

Table of Contents

the lender is permitted to require the borrower to deposit all revenues from the mortgaged property into an account controlled by the lender. Accordingly, in December 2004, the Company was notified by the lender that it was not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio requirement and would have to establish a restricted cash account whereby all cash generated by the property be deposited in an account from which all payments of interest, principal, operating expenses and escrows (insurance, property taxes and ground rent) would be disbursed. The lender may apply excess proceeds after payment of expenses to additional principal payments. As of June 30, 2005, $0.7 million was retained in the restricted cash account for this hotel. This loan can be repaid in full without penalty on the first day of the month following a 30 day written notice.
     Through wholly-owned subsidiaries, we owe approximately $10.1 million under industrial revenue bonds (“IRBs”) secured by the Holiday Inns Lawrence, Kansas and Manhattan, Kansas. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the cash flows of the two hotels were insufficient to meet the minimum debt service coverage ratio requirements. On March 2, 2005, we notified the Trustee of the IRBs that we would not continue to make debt service payments. The Holiday Inn franchise agreements for both of these hotels expire on August 28, 2005, and each of these hotels will require substantial capital expenditures for renewal or rebranding. The failure to make debt service payments is a default under the bond indenture and also a default under the ground leases for these properties. The failure to make the bond payments subjects these hotels to foreclosure and a potential obligation pursuant to a partial guaranty of approximately $1.4 million. On July 26, 2005, we reached a tentative settlement with the Trustee and an ad hoc committee of the IRB holders. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, we will convey our rights and interests in the hotels to the Trustee or its nominee by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or a “consensual” foreclosure and pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the bondholders the sum of $500,000 in exchange for a full release of all claims, including any claims related to the partial guaranty. Lodgian will also agree to immediately list the hotels for sale and cooperate with the Trustee in the sale process. It is anticipated that Lodgian will continue to manage the hotels until the closing of the sale of the hotels to a third party buyer. Further, the Trustee has agreed to cause a purchaser of the properties to assume or satisfy certain promissory notes executed by Lodgian for unpaid real estate taxes from 2001 in both taxing jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2005, the aggregate outstanding principal and interest on these promissory notes was $319,000. Except for the partial guaranty discussed above, the IRB’s are non-recourse debt and the proceeds from the sale of the hotels will be paid to the Trustee in full satisfaction of the outstanding debt.
     On July 25, 2005, we received a Notice of Event of Default and Acceleration from the Trustee relating to the IRBs. We have been advised by the Trustee’s counsel that the declaration of event of default and acceleration of the IRBs was a prerequisite for enabling the Trustee to enter into a compromise settlement on behalf of the bondholders with the proper authority. Thus, we believe that this declaration of event of default and acceleration will have no adverse effect on the tentative settlement agreement reached with the Trustee and the Committee. However, in the event Lodgian is unable to enter into definitive settlement agreements with the Trustee, the Trustee would be able to proceed with a judicial foreclosure sale of the properties pursuant to the requirements of Kansas law.
     Consistent with the tentative settlement agreement discussed above, on August 1, 2005, we did not make the scheduled tax note payments on these two hotels. This non-payment represents an event of default. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2005, the outstanding IRB obligation of $10.1 million and the outstanding tax note obligations of $0.3 million were listed as current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet.
     The tentative settlement agreement reached on July 26, 2005 is subject to formal documentation. We cannot guarantee that a final settlement agreement will be reached, or that if reached, it will be on substantially the same terms as described above.
     At June 30, 2005, approximately 83% of our continuing operations mortgage debt (including current portion) bears interest at fixed rates and approximately 17% bears interest at a floating rate.
7. Commitments and Contingencies
   Franchise Agreements and Capital Expenditures
     We benefit from the superior brand qualities of Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Marriott, Hilton and other brands. Included in the benefits of these brands are their reputation for quality and service, revenue generation through their

16


Table of Contents

central reservation systems, access to revenue through the global distribution systems, guest loyalty programs and brand Internet booking sites. Reservations made by means of these franchisor facilities generally account for approximately 35% of our total reservations.
     To obtain these franchise affiliations, we enter into franchise agreements with hotel franchisors that generally have terms of between 5 and 20 years. The franchise agreements typically authorize us to operate the hotel under the franchise name, at a specific location or within a specified area, and require that we operate a hotel in accordance with the standards specified by the franchisor. As part of our franchise agreements, we are generally required to pay a royalty fee, an advertising/marketing fee, a fee for the use of the franchisor’s nationwide reservation system and certain ancillary charges. Royalty fees generally range from 2.7% to 6.0% of gross room revenues, advertising/marketing fees generally range from 1.0% to 4.2% of gross room revenues, reservation system fees generally range from 1.0% to 2.6% of gross room revenues and club and restaurant fees range from 0% to 4.5%. In the aggregate, royalty fees, advertising/marketing fees, reservation fees and other ancillary fees for the various brands under which we operate our hotels range from 5.1% to 11.0% of gross room revenues. Total franchise fees through June 30, 2005 averaged 9.1% of gross room revenues for our continuing operations hotels.
     These costs vary with revenues and are not fixed commitments. Franchise fees incurred (which are reported in other hotel operating costs on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 were as follows:
                                 
    Three months ended   Six months ended
    June 30, 2005   June 30, 2004   June 30, 2005   June 30, 2004
    (unaudited in thousands)
Continuing operation
  $ 5,848     $ 5,703     $ 10,781     $ 10,810  
Discontinued operations
    536       863       960       1,595  
 
                               
 
  $ 6,384     $ 6,566     $ 11,741     $ 12,405  
 
                               
     During the term of the franchise agreements, the franchisors may require us to upgrade facilities to comply with their current standards. Our current franchise agreements terminate at various times and have differing remaining terms. For example, 5, 12 and 7 of our franchise agreements are scheduled to expire in 2005, 2006, and 2007, respectively. For 2005, three of the five scheduled expirations (Holiday Inn Lawrence, Holiday Inn Manhattan and Holiday Inn Columbus) relate to hotels which we expect to sell or surrender to the lenders. As franchise agreements expire, we may apply for a franchise renewal. In connection with renewals, the franchisor may require payment of a renewal fee, increased royalty and other recurring fees and substantial renovation of the facilities, or the franchisor may elect not to renew the franchise. The costs incurred in connection with these agreements are primarily monthly payments due to the franchisors based on a percentage of gross room revenues.
     If we do not comply with the terms of a franchise agreement, following notice and an opportunity to cure, the franchisor has the right to terminate the agreement, which could lead to a default under one or more of our loan agreements, and which could materially and adversely affect us. Prior to terminating a franchise agreement, franchisors are required to notify us of the areas of non-compliance and give us the opportunity to cure the non-compliance. In the past, we have been able to cure most cases of non-compliance and most defaults within the cure periods, and those events of non-compliance and defaults did not cause termination of our franchises or defaults on our loan agreements. If we perform an economic analysis of the hotel and determine that it is not economically feasible to comply with a franchisor’s requirements, we will either select an alternative franchisor or operate the hotel without a franchise affiliation. However, terminating or changing the franchise affiliation of a hotel could require us to incur significant expenses, including liquidated damages, and capital expenditures. Our loan agreements generally prohibit us from operating a hotel without a franchise.
     As of August 1, 2005, we have been notified that we were not in compliance with some of the terms of eight of our franchise agreements and have received default and termination notices from franchisors with respect to an additional ten hotels summarized as follows:
  a)   Three of these hotels are held for sale;

17


Table of Contents

  b)   Eight of the remaining hotels either recently completed a major renovation, are undergoing a major renovation or a major renovation is planned. The total cost of the renovations is projected to be $25.6 million of which $8.9 million has been spent;
 
  c)   One of the remaining hotels has a franchise agreement that expires in 2006 and is expected to be renovated upon selection of a new franchise. The total cost of the renovation will not be known until the franchisor inspects the property;
 
  d)   Two of the remaining hotels are currently above the required franchise thresholds. One of these hotels must remain above those levels until February 2006 to receive a “clean slate” letter, and the other hotel must remain above those levels until September 2005 to receive a cure letter;
 
  e)   One of the remaining hotels is expected to be surrendered to the lender;
 
  f)   One of the remaining hotels is being evaluated to determine if we will complete the renovation to retain the existing franchise or refranchise it under an alternate brand; and
 
  g)   The remaining two hotels must operate above required thresholds through August 2008 to receive “clean slate” letters.
     We cannot be certain that we will be able to complete our action plans, which in aggregate are estimated to cost approximately $12.5 million, of which $6.2 million is reserved with our lenders, to cure the alleged defaults prior to the specified termination dates or any extended time granted to cure any defaults. We believe we are in compliance with our other franchise agreements in all material respects. While we can give no assurance that the steps taken to date, and planned to be taken during the balance of 2005, will return the properties to full compliance, we believe that we will make significant progress and we intend to continue to give franchise agreement compliance a high level of attention. The 18 hotels that are either in default or non-compliance under the respective franchise agreement are part of the collateral security for $396.6 million of mortgage debt at August 1, 2005, due to cross-collateralization provisions.
     In addition, as part of our bankruptcy reorganization proceedings, we entered into stipulations with each of our major franchisors setting forth a timeline for completion of capital expenditures for some of our hotels. However, as of August 1, 2005, we have not completed the required capital expenditures for 13 hotels in accordance with the stipulations and estimate that completing those improvements will cost $4.8 million, of which $3.7 million is reserved with our lenders. Under the stipulations, the applicable franchisors could therefore seek to declare certain franchise agreements in default and, in certain circumstances, seek to terminate the franchise agreement. We have scheduled or have begun renovations on 9 of these hotels aggregating $3.3 million of the $4.8 million.
     In March 2005, we entered into letter agreements with IHG for our Holiday Inns in Strongsville, OH, Monroeville, PA and Washington-Meadowlands, PA which extends the deadline for us to complete renovations on these hotels. The letter agreements require us to complete various phases of the renovations by agreed-upon milestone dates. The capital expenditures related to these three hotels total $10.9 million, $3.5 million of which is reserved with our lenders. The agreed upon completion date for these three hotels is October 31, 2005, and we are subject to monetary penalties if we do not comply with the agreed upon milestone and completion dates. In addition, IHG may elect to terminate the franchise agreements for these three hotels if the renovations have not been completed, and in the event of a termination, we may be subject to liquidated damages. We anticipate that we will be able to meet these milestone and completion deadlines.
     During 2004, we entered into new franchise agreements for all 15 of our Marriott-branded hotels at that time and agreed to pay a fee aggregating approximately $0.5 million, of which $0.1 million has been paid, and $0.4 million is payable in 2007, subject to offsets. In connection with our agreement, Marriott may review the capital improvements we have made at our Marriott franchised hotels during 2004, and may, in its reasonable business judgment, require us to make additional property improvements and to place amounts into a reserve account for the purpose of funding those property improvements.
     To comply with the requirements of our franchisors, to improve our competitive position in individual markets, and repair hurricane damaged hotels, we plan to spend $85.4 million on our hotels in 2005. This includes committed hurricane repair capital expenditures of approximately $44.0 million, much of which we anticipate will be covered by insurance proceeds. This will substantially complete all of our deferred renovations. We spent $35.2 million on capital expenditures during 2004 on our continuing operations hotels.

  Letters of Credit
     As of June 30, 2005, we had one irrevocable letter of credit for $3.4 million outstanding, fully collateralized by our cash (classified as restricted cash in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets), as a guarantee to Zurich American Insurance Company. This letter of credit will expire in November 2005. We may be required to renew the letter of credit beyond that date at the same or a higher amount.
   Self-insurance
     We are self-insured up to certain limits with respect to employee medical, employee dental, property insurance, general liability insurance, workers’ compensation, auto liability and other forms of insurance. We establish liabilities for these self-insured obligations annually, based on actuarial valuations and our history of claims. Should unanticipated events cause these claims to escalate beyond normal expectations, our financial condition and results of operations would be negatively affected. As of June 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, we had approximately $12.2 million and $11.4 million accrued for these liabilities, respectively.
     There are other types of losses for which we cannot obtain insurance at all or at a reasonable cost, including losses caused by acts of war. If an uninsured loss or a loss that exceeds our insurance limits were to occur, we could lose both the revenues generated from the affected hotel and the capital that we have invested. We also could be liable for any outstanding mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the hotel. Any such loss could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
     We believe that we maintain sufficient insurance coverage for the operation of our business.
  Casualty losses
     During August and September 2004, eight of our hotels were damaged (six extensively) from the hurricanes that made landfall in the Southeastern United States. Two of the hotels (Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach and Holiday Inn Melbourne) remain closed. The Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach hotel is expected to reopen in the 2005 fourth quarter and the Holiday Inn Melbourne hotel is expected to reopen in 2006 first quarter, respectively. All properties in our portfolio are covered by property casualty and business interruption insurance.
     With regard to physical property damage, we are recognizing repair expenses related to hurricane damage as we incur them. We have also written off the net book value (“NBV”) of the assets that were destroyed by the hurricane. As the combined repair expenses and NBV write-offs exceed the relevant insurance deductibles, we have recorded a receivable from the insurance carriers. For the three months ended June 30, 2005, we incurred approximately $28,000 in hurricane repair charges. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we incurred $0.1 million in hurricane repair charges mainly representing $0.1 million in additional deductible costs. Hurricane costs incurred to date (including costs incurred September 2004 to December 2004) total $2.1 million for hurricane repair costs, $3.7 million written off in NBV of destroyed assets, and we have recorded a $3.3 million receivable due from the insurance company for amounts that exceed the deductibles, which results in a cumulative $2.5 million casualty loss as a result of the hurricanes. For the first six months of 2005, $15.8 million was released from our insurance carrier ($17.8 million in total) as advances for repairs on our Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach, Holiday Inn Melbourne, Holiday Inn Winter Haven, Holiday Inn Express Pensacola and Holiday Inn Pensacola University Mall hotels. All advances are forwarded to our lenders from which we receive reimbursements as we incur hurricane-related repair and capital expenditures. For the three months ended June 30, 2005, we received $7.6 million from our lenders for hurricane-related reimbursements. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we received $12.7 million from our lenders for hurricane-related reimbursements. Cumulatively, since September 2004 when the first hurricane losses occurred through June 30, 2005, we have received $14.2 million from our lenders for hurricane-related reimbursements.
     We have filed business interruption claims for both hotels for the September through December 2004 period and for the January through June 2005 period. Through June 30, 2005, we have received and recorded as other income $1.7 million in business interruption proceeds which relate to business losses for 2004.

Table of Contents

     From time to time, as we conduct our business, legal actions and claims are brought against us. The outcome of these matters is uncertain. However, we believe that all currently pending matters will be resolved without a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Claims relating to the period before we filed for Chapter 11 protection were limited to the amounts approved by the Bankruptcy Court for settlement of such claims and were payable out of a reserve for allowed claims that was recorded on our balance sheet. On July 26, 2004, the Preferred Stock was redeemed and cash of $2.2 million replaced the Preferred Stock shares held in the disputed claims reserve. Accordingly, when this liability was established it reduced Additional Paid-in Capital and did not flow through our Consolidated Statement of Operations. On June 30, 2005, we completed the final distribution for our bankruptcy claims and released the remaining unused accrual balance of $1.3 million with a corresponding adjustment to Additional Paid-in Capital in our Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.
8. New Accounting Pronouncements
     On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets – An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29 (“SFAS No. 153”). The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have “commercial substance.” SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 on June 15, 2005 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payments (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) would require the Company to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair-value method and record such expense in its consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 123(R) was originally effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2005, however, in April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) changed the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 for non-small business issuers. SFAS No. 123(R) provides alternative methods of adoption, which include prospective application and a modified retroactive application. The Company plans to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
9. Subsequent Events
Appointment of President
     On July 15, 2005, Lodgian appointed Edward J. Rohling as president and W. Thomas Parrington resigned as president while remaining a member of the board of directors and the Company’s chief executive officer. Mr. Parrington will remain as chief executive officer through a transition period, after which the Company expects Mr. Rohling to assume Mr. Parrington’s duties as chief executive officer.
     Mr. Rohling and the Company entered into an employment agreement on July 12, 2005. The employment agreement term commences July 15, 2005 and continues through 2008. It provides for a base salary of $550,000 plus increases of not less than 5% per year, as well as minimum bonuses of $110,000 for 2005 and $220,000 for each of 2006, 2007 and 2008. The agreement further provides for a signing bonus of $594,000 in cash and 75,000 shares of restricted stock issued under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan. Half of the shares will vest on July 15, 2006 and the balance on July 15, 2007. The employment agreement also provides for additional cash and equity bonuses during the life of the contract, depending upon the achievement of certain goals and objectives, and for additional compensation in the event of a change in control of the Company for a price at a specified premium in excess of stated price thresholds. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Rohling will be promoted to be chief executive officer of the Company on or before July 1, 2006.
     Under the employment agreement, Mr. Rohling will be paid or reimbursed up to $100,000 in expenses associated with his relocation to Atlanta. The employment agreement contains severance benefits in the event of a termination without cause or a resignation for good reason (each as defined in the employment agreement), including the continuance of base salary for the lesser of two years or the balance of the term of the employment agreement, the acceleration of vesting of any unvested shares of restricted stock, and, if certain targets are achieved, a performance bonus and/or an equity award. In the event of nonrenewal of the employment agreement after December 31, 2008, Mr. Rohling’s unvested shares of restricted stock will vest, and he will be eligible to receive his final performance-based equity award and cash bonus, contingent upon the achievement of certain targets and goals.
     Under the employment agreement, Mr. Rohling has agreed to nondisclosure covenants and to a covenant not to compete with the Company within a limited geographic area, during the term of the employment agreement and for six months thereafter.

Amendment to Employment Agreement
     On August 3, 2005, W. Thomas Parrington, our chief executive officer, and the Company entered into an amendment of Mr. Parrington’s employment agreement. The amendment changes the expiration date of the agreement from July 15, 2006 to December 31, 2005. The amendment further gives the Company the option to terminate Mr. Parrington’s employment and\or ask him to resign as a member of the board of directors prior to the new expiration date of the employment agreement. In exchange, the Company has agreed to continue Mr. Parrington’s base salary through December 31, 2005, regardless of whether his employment terminates sooner. In addition, all of Mr. Parrington’s unvested restricted stock units and options will become immediately vested on December 31, 2005. Mr. Parrington’s unvested restricted stock units (which total 22,222 as of August 1, 2005) will be immediately convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock, and his unvested stock options (which total 11,111 as of August 1, 2005) will be exercisable for 30 days, at which time they will expire. The Company has also agreed to pay Mr. Parrington’s COBRA premiums under its major medical group health plan through July 2006.
Sale of Two Hotels
     Between July 1, 2005 and August 1, 2005, the Company sold two hotels included in discontinued operations: the Holiday Inn in St. Louis, Missouri and the Holiday Inn Select in Niagara Falls, New York. The aggregate net proceeds of these two hotels were $16.7 million, of which $14.3 million was used to pay down debt.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     You should read the discussion below in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, set forth in “Item I. Financial Statements” included in this Form 10-Q. Also, the discussion which follows contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Executive Overview
     We are one of the largest independent owners and operators of full-service hotels in the United States in terms of our number of guest rooms and gross annual revenues, as reported by Hotel Business in the 2005 Green Book issue published in December 2004. We are considered an independent owner and operator because we do not operate our hotels under our own name. We operate substantially all of our hotels under nationally recognized brands, such as “Crowne Plaza,” “Holiday Inn,” “Marriott,” and “Hilton.” As of August 1, 2005, we operated 80 hotels with an aggregate of 14,684 rooms, located in 30 states and Canada. Of the 80 hotels, 76 hotels, with an aggregate of 13,718 rooms, are part of our continuing operations including two hotels that we intend to sell or surrender to the lender, while four hotels, with an aggregate of 966 rooms are held for sale and classified in discontinued operations. Our current portfolio of 83 hotels consists of:
    76 hotels that we wholly own and operate through subsidiaries;
 
    three hotels that we operate in joint ventures in which we have a 50% or greater voting equity interest and exercise control; and
 
    one hotel that we operate in a joint venture in which we have a 30% non-controlling equity interest.
     We consolidate all of these hotels in our financial statements, other than the one hotel in which we hold a minority interest and which we account for under the equity method.
     During 2003, we developed a portfolio improvement strategy which was consistent with our goals of operating a portfolio of profitable, well-maintained and appealing hotels at superior locations in strong markets. In accordance with this strategy and our efforts to reduce debt and interest costs, we identified 19 hotels, one office building and three land parcels for sale. In January 2005, we identified three additional hotels as held for sale. Between November 1, 2003 and June 30, 2005, we sold the office building, 16 of the 22 hotels and two of the three land parcels. Subsequent to June 30, 2005, we sold two additional hotels. As of August 1, 2005, our portfolio consisted

of 80 hotels, 76 of which represent our continuing operations portfolio (including one hotel in which we have a non-controlling equity interest and which we do not consolidate).
Overview of Continuing Operations
     Below is an overview of our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005, which are presented in more detail in “Results of Operations — Continuing Operations:”
    Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2005 increased from the prior year despite the continued closure of two hotels for hurricane renovations and eight hotels under renovation during the quarter. We saw improvements in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 ADR and RevPAR as compared to the same period in 2004 with positive growth in occupancy for the three months ended June 30, 2005. RevPAR for our continuing operations hotels, less the two hotels closed for hurricane damage, was up 7.1% with 70% of the growth coming from a 5% increase in ADR.
 
    Operating expenses increased in the second quarter 2005 as compared to the second quarter 2004 as a result of higher revenues, an increase in workers’ compensation and group medical insurance claims, and brand-mandated upgrades in linen packages and property management systems. Corporate overhead expenses increased primarily due to the write-off of our investment and accounts receivable related to our 30%-owned Columbus hotel that we plan to surrender to the lender.
 
    Interest expense was lower for 2005 as a significant portion of the costs incurred in the second quarter 2004 were related to our refinance completed in June 2004.
 
    We recorded $1.0 million of impairment charges in the quarter primarily related to the write-down of the Holiday Inn, Hamburg, New York hotel to its estimated fair value based on a broker opinion.
 
    Net income attributable to common stock was $1.9 million for the second quarter 2005 compared with a net loss of $7.2 million for the second quarter 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the net loss attributable to common stock was $5.2 million as compared to a net loss of $14.3 million for 2004.
Overview of Discontinued Operations
     Between November 1, 2003 and August 1, 2005, we sold 18 hotels, an office building, and two land parcels. Summarized below is certain financial data related to these sales:
         
    ($ in thousands)
Aggregate Sales Price
  $ 88,610  
Debt pay down (principal only)
  $ 70,236  
     In accordance with SFAS No. 144, we have included the hotel assets sold during 2004 and 2005 as well as the hotel assets held for sale at June 30, 2005 (including any related impairment charges) in Discontinued Operations in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The assets held for sale at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the liabilities related to these assets are separately disclosed in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Where the carrying values of the assets held for sale exceeded the estimated fair values, net of selling costs, we reduced the carrying values and recorded impairment charges. We determine the estimated selling prices in conjunction with our real estate brokers. The estimated selling prices are based on our experience with similar asset sales. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, we recorded impairment charges of $1.8 million and $3.7 million on assets held for sale, respectively. Where the estimated selling prices, net of selling costs, of assets held for sale exceeded the carrying values, we did not increase the carrying values of the assets. Among other criteria, we classify an asset as held for sale if we expect to dispose of it within one year, an active marketing plan to sell the asset at a reasonable price has been initiated and it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan to sell the asset will be made.
     While we believe that the completion of these dispositions is probable, the sale of these assets is subject to market conditions and we cannot provide assurance that we will finalize the sale of all or any of these assets on

favorable terms or at all. We believe that all our held for sale assets as of June 30, 2005 remain properly classified in accordance with SFAS No. 144.
     The results of operations of the other 75 hotels that we consolidate in our financial statements are reported in continuing operations. Our continuing operations reflect the results of operations of those hotels which we are likely to retain in our portfolio for the foreseeable future with the exception of our two hotels in Kansas which will be sold or surrendered to the lender.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
     Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. As we prepare our financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from our estimates. A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Also, our critical accounting policies and estimates are discussed in our Form 10-K, and we believe no changes have occurred.
Income Statement Overview
     The discussion below focuses primarily on our continuing operations. In the continuing operations discussions, we compare the results of operations for the 75 consolidated hotels which we plan to retain in our portfolio for the foreseeable future with the exception of our two hotels in Kansas which will be sold or surrendered to the lender, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Income Statement Overview” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 for a general description of the categorization of our revenues and expenses.

     Second quarter 2005 revenues increased 1.8% despite the continued closure of two hotels (Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach and Holiday Inn Melbourne) for hurricane repairs and displacement at eight other hotels undergoing renovation during the quarter. Displacement refers to lost revenue and profit due to rooms out of order resulting from renovation or hurricane repairs. Second quarter 2004 room revenues for the Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach and Holiday Inn Melbourne were $2.8 million, food and beverage revenues were $1.0 million and other revenues were $0.1 million, for a total of $3.9 million decrease in revenues year over year. Displacement refers to lost revenue and profit due to rooms out of order resulting from renovation or hurricane repairs. The displaced revenue figures cited are only for the “hard” displacement that is documented when a hotel has sold all available rooms and denies additional reservations due to rooms out of order. The Company feels this method is conservative, as it does not account for the “soft” displacement associated with a renovation; for example, guests who depart earlier than planned due to the disruption caused by the renovation work, local customers or frequent guests who may choose an

alternative hotel during the renovation, or local groups that may not solicit the hotel to house their groups during renovations. The eight hotels under renovation resulted in $1.2 million in displaced room revenues and $1.4 million in total revenue displacement. Accordingly, for the three months ended June 30, 2005, total room revenue displacement was $4.0 million and total revenue displacement was $5.3 million.
     Below is a chart that shows our occupancy, ADR, RevPAR and RevPAR Index (market share) for our continuing operations hotels for the three months ended June 30, 2005. To illustrate the impact of the two hotels closed due to hurricane damage on our continuing operations, the impact of renovations underway and completed, and the impact of branding, we have adjusted this information into seven different subsets. These subsets indicate that our Marriott and Hilton branded hotels outperformed our IHG branded hotels. In addition, these subsets indicate that where we have recently completed a major renovation, we see an increase in RevPAR that is greater then the average increase for all of our continuing operations hotels.

     Lodgian’s competitive set RevPAR growth as compared to the industry has been trending positive over the past five quarters which, we believe, is a result of the improving condition of our hotel assets in the markets in which we operate. As shown in the following chart, in the first quarter 2004 the markets in which Lodgian operates grew RevPAR at only 58.4% of the U.S. industry average. By the second quarter 2005 the markets in which Lodgian operates grew RevPAR at 97.6% of the U.S. industry average Although our properties, due to renovation disruption, are not growing RevPAR as quickly as the markets in which we operate, we are encouraged that our markets are now behaving consistently with national averages as we complete our renovations and are poised to improve our RevPAR indices.

Room payroll and related benefits, on an actual POR basis, were $13.90 in the second quarter 2005 as compared to $13.03 in 2004, primarily due to increases in group medical and workers’ compensation costs as a result of higher claims experience. Other rooms expenses, on an actual POR basis, were $8.69 in the second quarter 2005 as compared to $7.62 in 2004. Increased costs for guest and operating supplies, guest loyalty programs, credit card commissions, reservation equipment and linen costs resulting from upgraded linen packages mandated by certain brands all contributed to the increase in other rooms costs.

     Other hotel operating costs increased $1.8 million or 7.8% in the second quarter 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004 due to the following:
    Hotel general and administrative costs increased $0.5 million or 9.2% primarily as a result of increased costs related to our property management system conversions, an increase in group medical insurance claims, and additional payroll costs;
 
    Advertising and promotion costs increased $0.5 million or 13.2% primarily due to the addition of sales personnel and sales programs to promote our newly renovated properties and costs related to increased group medical insurance claims; and
 
    Repairs and maintenance costs increased $0.5 million or 10.6% primarily due to higher costs related to our on-going renovation program and an increase in workers’ compensation and group medical insurance claims.
     Property and other taxes, insurance and leases increased $0.6 million or 12.0% as the 2004 expense was reduced by $0.7 million for the settlement of a deferred ground rent obligation.
     Corporate and other costs increased $1.2 million or 25.1% primarily due to the $0.9 million write-off of the accounts receivable related to our 30%-owned Columbus hotel which we intend to surrender to the lender. We do not consolidate this asset in our financial statements, and as a result, there was a receivable from the Columbus hotel on our consolidated financial statements for which we have fully reserved as of June 30, 2005.
     Charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $1.0 million represent a $0.9 million on the Holiday Inn Hamburg, New York hotel due to its undiscounted cash flows being less than its carrying value and the resulting broker opinion of value requiring a write-down of the asset to its estimated fair value and a $0.1 million write-off of the net book value of assets that were replaced in the second quarter 2005.

RevPAR
  $ 50.70     $ 48.72     $ 1.98       4.1 %
     Revenues for the first six months of 2005 decreased 1% primarily due to the continued closure of two hurricane damaged hotels (Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach and Holiday Inn Melbourne), displacement related to renovations at three other hurricane damaged hotels and displacement at ten hotels undergoing renovation during this period. Room revenues for the Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach and Holiday Inn Melbourne for the six months ended June 30, 2004, were $6.4 million, food and beverage revenues were $2.1 million and other revenues were $0.2 million, for a total decrease in revenues of $8.7 million from 2004. Total revenue displacement, primarily consisting of room revenue displacement, for the three other hurricane-damaged hotels was $0.1 million. The hotels under renovation during this period resulted in $2.1 million of displaced room revenues and $2.5 million in total revenues. Accordingly, for the six months ended June 30, 2005, total room revenue displacement for the hurricane-damaged or closed hotels and hotels under renovation was $8.6 million and total revenue displacement was $11.3 million.

     Below is a chart that shows our occupancy, ADR, RevPAR and RevPAR Index (market share) for our continuing operations hotels for the six months ended June 30, 2005. To illustrate the impact of the two hotels closed due to hurricane damage on our continuing operations, the impact of renovations underway and completed, and the impact of branding, we have adjusted this information into seven different subsets. These subsets indicate that our Marriott and Hilton branded hotels outperformed our IHG branded hotels. In addition, these subsets indicate that where we have recently completed a major renovation, we see an increase in RevPAR that is greater then the average increase for all of our continuing operations hotels.

    Advertising and promotion costs increased $0.7 million or 8.6% primarily due to the addition of sales personnel and sales programs to promote our newly renovated properties and added costs related to increased group medical insurance claims.
     Property and other taxes, insurance and leases costs increased $0.8 million or 7.0% for the first six months of 2005 primarily as the 2004 expense was reduced by $0.7 million for the settlement of a deferred ground rent obligation.

Table of Contents

      Corporate and other costs increased $1.5 million or 16.7% primarily due to $0.3 million of severance costs and succession planning professional fees and the $0.9 million write-off of the receivable from the 30% minority owned Holiday Inn City Center Columbus, Ohio hotel, which we do not consolidate on our financial statements as it is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
      Charges for the impairment of long-lived assets of $2.6 million represent a $0.2 million write-off of the net book value of assets that were replaced in the first six months of 2005, a $1.6 million impairment charge on the Holiday Inn Lawrence hotel due to a reduced fair value appraisal on this hotel, and a $0.9 million on the Holiday Inn Hamburg, New York hotel due to its undiscounted cash flows being less than its carrying value and the resulting broker opinion of value requiring a write-down of the asset to its estimated fair value.

     Interest expense decreased $13.6 million for the first six months of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004 because the 2004 expenses reflect the costs associated with the debt refinance we completed on June 25, 2004 and the resultant write-off of the previously capitalized deferred loan costs.
     Loss on preferred stock redemption costs of $1.6 million in 2004 represent the 4% prepayment premium on the Preferred Stock that was exchanged for common stock immediately following the consummation of our equity offering on June 25, 2004.

     During second quarter 2005, we sold one hotel for a gross sales price of $4.0 million and applied the net proceeds to pay down debt. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we sold four hotels for a gross sales price of $13.5 million, and applied the net proceeds to pay down debt. The aggregate gain from the sale of the assets in 2005 was $2.0 million.
     Impairment was recorded on assets held for sale in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004. The $1.8 million impairment of long-lived assets held for sale recorded in the second quarter 2005 represents the write-down of two hotels held for sale, the net book value of assets held for sale that were replaced in the first quarter 2005 and adjustments to recapture previously recorded impairment on two hotels. The fair values of the assets held for sale are based on the estimated selling prices less estimated costs to sell. We determine the estimated selling prices in conjunction with our real estate brokers. The estimated selling costs are based on our experience with similar asset sales. We record impairment charges and write down respective hotel asset carrying values if their carrying values exceed the estimated selling prices less costs to sell. As a result of these evaluations, during the second quarter of 2005, we recorded impairment losses as follows:
  a)   an additional $0.6 million on the Holiday Inn Rolling Meadows, IL to reflect the lowered estimated selling price of the hotel; and
 
  b)   an additional $1.3 million on the Holiday Inn St. Louis North, MO to reflect the reduced selling price on this hotel.
     The impairment of long-lived assets held for sale of $0.5 million recorded in second quarter 2004 represents the write-down of two hotels held for sale. As a result of these evaluations, during the first quarter of 2004 we recorded impairment losses as follows:
  a)   $0.2 million on the Downtown Plaza Hotel Cincinnati, OH hotel to adjust for the further reduction in the estimated selling price of this hotel; and
 
  b)   $0.3 million on the Holiday Inn Morgantown, WV to adjust for the further reduction in the estimated selling price of this hotel.
Income taxes
     At December 31, 2004, we had available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $314 million for federal income tax purposes, including an estimated current year tax loss of $75 million, which will expire in 2005 through 2024. The recently concluded equity offering resulted in an Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 382 change of ownership, limiting the Company’s ability to utilize these losses. As a result of the application of IRC Section 382, our ability to use these net operating loss carryforwards is subject to an annual limitation of approximately $8.3 million. Due to these and other limitations, a portion or all of the net operating loss carryforwards will likely expire unused. At December 31, 2004, we established a valuation allowance of $145.2 million to fully offset our net deferred tax asset.
EBITDA
     We use earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) to measure our performance and to assist us in the assessment of hotel property values. EBITDA is also a widely-used industry measure. However, EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and should not be used as a substitute for measures such as net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, or other measures computed in accordance with GAAP. Depreciation, amortization and impairment are significant non-cash expenses for us as a result of the high proportion of our assets which are long-lived, including property, plant and equipment. We depreciate property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives and amortize deferred financing and franchise fees over the term of the applicable agreements. Preferred stock dividends are treated as interest expense and, hence, are added back to loss from continuing operations to derive EBITDA. We also believe that EBITDA provides pertinent information to investors and is an additional indicator of our operating performance.

Additional Financial Information Regarding Quarterly Results of Our Continuing Operations
     The following table presents certain quarterly data for our continuing operations for the eight quarters ended June 30, 2005. The data have been derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods indicated. Our unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments we consider to be necessary to present fairly this information when read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for certain quarters may vary from the amounts previously reported on our Forms 10-Q filed for prior quarters due to timing of our identification of assets held for sale during the course of the previous eight quarters. The allocation of results of operations between our continuing operations and discontinued operations, at the time of the quarterly filings, was based on the assets held for sale, if any, as of the dates of those filings. This table represents the comparative quarterly operating results for the 75 hotels classified in continuing operations at June 30, 2005:

          Hotel data by region
     The following two tables present data on occupancy, ADR and RevPAR for hotels in our portfolio (including one hotel that we do not consolidate) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, by region and the capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The following tables exclude three of our hotels because of year over year comparative issues as noted below:
    The Springhill Suites by Marriott hotel in Pinehurst, North Carolina (acquired in December 2004) is excluded since we do not have comparative figures for the six months ended June 30, 2004;
 
    The Holiday Inn Melbourne, Florida hotel since it is currently closed for hurricane renovations; and
 
    The Crowne Plaza West Palm Beach, Florida hotel since it is currently closed for hurricane renovations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
  Working Capital
     We use our cash flows primarily for operating expenses, debt service, and capital expenditures. Currently, our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash flows from operations, and existing cash balances. Cash flows from operations may be adversely affected by factors such as a reduction in demand for lodging or certain large scale renovations being performed at our hotels. To the extent that significant amounts of our accounts receivable are due from airline companies, a further downturn in the airline industry or the failure of an individual carrier that does business with us also could materially and adversely affect the ability to collect on accounts receivable, and hence our liquidity. A further downturn in the airline industry or the failure of an individual carrier that does business with us could also affect revenues by decreasing the aggregate levels of demand for our hotels by airline industry

employees. At June 30, 2005, airline receivables represented approximately 14.8% of our accounts receivable net of allowances.
     Between November 1, 2003 and August 1, 2005, we sold 18 hotels, one office building, and two land parcels and have another four hotels and one land parcel classified as assets held for sale. The aggregate sales price from the sale of the 18 hotels, the office building and two land parcels sold between November 1, 2003 and August 1, 2005, was $88.6 million and of the net proceeds $70.2 million was used to pay down debt and $11.9 million was used for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures.
     Our ability to make scheduled debt service payments and fund operations and capital expenditures depends on our future performance and financial results, including the successful implementation of our business strategy and, to a certain extent, the general condition of the lodging industry and the general economic, political, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory environment. In addition, our ability to refinance our indebtedness depends to a certain extent on these factors as well. Many factors affecting our future performance and financial results, including the severity and duration of macro-economic downturns, are beyond our control. See “Matters Which May Affect Future Results — Risks Related to Our Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
     In June 2004, we completed an offering to the public of our common stock, the purpose of which was to redeem our outstanding Preferred Stock, to fund capital expenditures related to renovations and repositionings of selected hotels, and for general corporate purposes including funding our growth strategy. In connection with this offering, we closed on the $370 million Merrill Lynch Mortgage Lending, Inc. refinance in order to extend maturities and to convert a substantial portion of floating rate debt to fixed rate debt.
     We intend to continue to use our cash flow to make scheduled debt service payments and fund operations and capital expenditures and, therefore, do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
     On June 30, 2005 we completed the final distribution of shares and cash to general unsecured creditors in connection with the conclusion of our bankruptcy claim distribution process. Because our final distribution was less than the liability established at the time of the stock offering to pay such claims, we have relieved the excess liability and retired the stock issued to settle the claims. We do not anticipate any additional material charges related to our Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.
     In accordance with GAAP, all assets held for sale, including assets that would normally be classified as long-term assets in the normal course of business, were reported as “assets held for sale” in current assets. Similarly, all liabilities related to assets held for sale were reported as “liabilities related to assets held for sale” in current liabilities, including debt that would otherwise be classified as long-term liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
     At June 30, 2005, we had a working capital deficit (current assets less current liabilities) of $11.1 million compared to a working capital surplus of $9.5 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to a decrease in current assets as we used cash for our renovation program and an increase in current liabilities of $15.8 million related to insurance advances received from our insurance carrier for property damage claims. In 2004 with the completion of our common stock offering, we received net proceeds that approximated $175.9 million, of which approximately $25.7 million was used to fund reserve accounts with Merrill Lynch Mortgage pursuant to requirements in our June 2004 Refinancing Debt agreements. A reserve of $22.7 million was funded for capital expenditures and a reserve of $3.0 million was funded for requirements related to a hotel ground lease that was ultimately resolved at approximately $1.8 million. On July 26, 2004, we used approximately $114.0 million of the proceeds from our equity offering to redeem all of our outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including accrued dividends and a 4% prepayment premium. Approximately $2.2 million in cash replaced the 79,278 shares of Preferred Stock held in the disputed claims reserve. As of June 30, 2005, we completed our final distribution related to our bankruptcy filing and relieved the excess liability related to our bankruptcy claims and credited Additional Paid in Capital.

     During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 we spent approximately $22.3 million and $41.9 million, respectively, on capital expenditures. For the remainder of 2005 we expect to spend an additional $47.2 million on our continuing operations hotels, of which $23.5 million represents committed hurricane repair capital expenditures, much of which we anticipate will be covered by insurance proceeds, thereby completing substantially all of our deferred renovations.
     We believe that the combination of our current cash, cash flows from operations, capital expenditure escrows and the proceeds of asset sales will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the next 24 months. Our ability to meet our short and long-term cash needs over the next 24 months is dependent on the continuation and extent of the recovery of the economy and the lodging industry, improvement in our operating results, the successful implementation of our portfolio improvement strategy, including the sale of unencumbered non-core assets, and our ability to obtain third party sources of capital on favorable terms as and when needed. In the short term, we continue to diligently monitor our expenses and focus on the completion of our asset divesture program. Our future liquidity needs and sources of working capital are subject to uncertainty and we can provide no assurance that we will have sufficient liquidity to be able to meet our operating expenses, debt service requirements, including scheduled maturities, and planned capital expenditures. We could lose the right to operate certain hotels under nationally recognized brand names, and furthermore, the termination of one or more franchise agreements could lead to defaults and acceleration under one or more loan agreements as well as obligations to pay liquidated damages under the franchise agreements. See “Matters Which May Affect Future Results — Risks Related to Our Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, for further discussion of conditions that could adversely affect our estimates of future liquidity needs and sources of working capital.
Cash Flow
   Operating Activities
     Net cash provided by operating activities was $13.7 million for the first six months of 2005 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $14.7 million for the first six months of 2004.
  Investing Activities
     Net cash used in investing activities was $8.4 million for the first six months of 2005 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $3.2 million in 2004. Capital improvements increased $27.9 million, proceeds from our dispositions program decreased by $21.0 million, withdrawals from capital expenditure escrows increased by $29.1 million as compared to the same period last year, and we received $15.8 million in insurance advances since January 1, 2005 to cover property damage to our hotels.
  Financing activities
     Net cash used in financing activities in the first six months of 2005 was $23.4 million, as compared to $147.8 million net cash provided by financing activities in 2004. Principal payments on long term debt were $26.4 million, $3.2 million of proceeds received with the financing of our Pinehurst, NC hotel, and $0.2 million for payments of deferred loan costs on this financing. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2004 is primarily the result of the equity offering and loan refinancing completed in June 2004.
Debt and Contractual Obligations
     See discussion of our Debt and Contractual Obligations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and Notes 6 and 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Market Risk
     We are exposed to interest rate risks on our variable rate debt. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had outstanding variable rate debt of approximately $83.7 million and $102.7 million, respectively.
     On June 25, 2004, we refinanced both the Merrill Lynch Exit Financing and Lehman Financing. The new refinancing is organized in four fixed rate pools and one floating rate pool. In order to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates with the floating pool, we entered into an interest rate cap agreement, which allowed us to obtain this financing at a floating rate and effectively cap the interest rate at LIBOR of 5.00% plus 3.40%. When LIBOR exceeds 5.00%, the contract requires settlement of net interest receivable at specified intervals, which generally coincide with the dates on which interest is payable on the underlying debt. When LIBOR is below 5.00%, there is no settlement from the interest rate cap. We are exposed to interest rate risks on the floating pool for increases in LIBOR up to 5.00%, but we are not exposed to increases in LIBOR above 5.00% because settlements from the interest rate caps would offset the incremental interest expense. The notional principal amount of the interest rate cap outstanding was $110.0 million at June 30, 2005.
     The fair value of the interest rate cap related to Refinanced Debt as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, was $1,500 and $31,000, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate cap was recognized on the balance sheet in other assets. Adjustments to the carrying value of the interest rate cap are reflected in interest expense.
     As a result of having the interest rate cap, we believe that our interest rate risk at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 is minimal. The impact on annual results of operations of a hypothetical one-point interest rate reduction on the interest rate cap as of June 30, 2005 would be a reduction in net income of approximately $1,500. This derivative financial instrument is viewed as a risk management tool. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. However, we have not elected the hedging requirements of SFAS No. 133.
     At June 30, 2005, approximately $83.7 million of debt instruments outstanding were subject to changes in the LIBOR. Without regard to additional borrowings under those instruments or scheduled amortization, the annualized effect of each twenty-five basis point increase in LIBOR would be a reduction in income before income taxes of approximately $0.2 million. The fair value of the fixed rate mortgage debt (book value $338.5. million) at June 30, 2005 is estimated at $340.3 million.
     The nature of our fixed rate obligations does not expose us to fluctuations in interest payments. The impact on the fair value of our fixed rate obligations of a hypothetical one-point interest rate increase on the outstanding fixed-rate debt as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 would be approximately $10.4 million and $12.1 million, respectively.
Forward-looking Statements
     We make forward looking statements in this report and other reports we file with the SEC. In addition, management may make oral forward-looking statements in discussions with analysts, the media, investors and others. These statements include statements relating to our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and adequacy of resources, and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” and “projects” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and the impact of these events on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are subject to many risks and uncertainties including the following:
    The effects of regional, national and international economic conditions, including the magnitude and duration of the economic recovery in the United States;
 
    Competitive conditions in the lodging industry and increases in room capacity;
 
    The effects of actual and threatened terrorist attacks and international conflicts and their impact on domestic and international travel, including the potentially marked decrease in travel in connection with military action in Iraq or elsewhere;

    Our ability to collect insurance proceeds for both property damage and business interruption claims related to damage caused by hurricanes to certain hotels.
     Any of these risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained and caution you not to place undue reliance on such statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect current or future events or circumstances or their impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Many of these factors are not within our control and we caution you not to put undue reliance on forward looking statements.
Inflation
     We have not determined the precise impact of inflation. However, we believe that the rate of inflation has not had a material effect on our revenues or expenses in recent years. It is difficult to predict whether inflation will have a material effect on our results in the long-term.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
     From time to time, as we conduct our business, legal actions and claims are brought against us. The outcome of these matters is uncertain. However, we believe that all currently pending matters will be resolved without a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. We completed our final bankruptcy distribution on June 30, 2005 and any excess amounts that remained in the reserve for allowed claims were credited to Additional Paid-in Capital. We do not anticipate any material charges related to the bankruptcy filing in the future.

(c) Tenant's right of first offer shall not be applicable during any Renewal Term. 7

Rohling, ("Executive") and Lodgian, Inc. ("Company") as of the 12 day of July, 2005 ("Agreement"). NOW THEREFORE, in exchange of mutual consideration set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. Executive's employment under this Agreement shall commence on July 15, 2005 and shall end on December 31, 2008 ("Expiration Date"), or such earlier date on which Executive's employment is terminated under Section 5 of this Agreement ("Employment Term"). 2. NATURE OF DUTIES. Executive shall be the Company's President reporting jointly to the Company's CEO and the Company's Board of Directors ("Board"). Prior to, but no later than July 1, 2006 Executive shall become the Company's Chief Executive Officer, reporting solely to the Board. Except as noted herein, Executive shall work exclusively for the Company and shall have all of the customary powers and duties associated with these positions. Executive shall devote Executive's full business time and effort to the performance of Executive's duties for the Company, which Executive shall perform faithfully and to the best of Executive's ability. Executive shall be subject to the Company's policies, procedures, and approval practices, as generally in effect from time-to-time and applied to its senior executives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall be able to serve on up to two boards of directors of other for-profit entities. With Board approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Executive shall be permitted to exceed this limit of two. Nothing herein shall be construed as limiting Executive's ability to serve on the board of non-profit entities or otherwise engage in activities for charities. However, nothing in this Section 2 shall permit Executive to serve on the board of directors of any entity to the extent that doing so would (a) interfere with Executive's duties to the Company, and/or (b) conflict with the interests of the Company. 3. PLACE OF PERFORMANCE. Executive's primary office location shall be at 3445 Peachtree Road, Suite 700, Atlanta, Georgia, except for required travel on the Company's business. 4. COMPENSATION AND RELATED MATTERS. (a) BASE SALARY. The Company shall pay Executive base salary at an annual rate of $550,000, which rate shall be increased by the Company on each anniversary of the commencement of this Agreement by at least 5% of the then current base salary rate. Executive's base salary shall be paid in conformity with the Company's salary payment practices generally applicable to other similarly situated Company senior executives, but no less often than once monthly. (b) SIGNING BONUS - STOCK. (i) The Company shall pay Executive a signing bonus in the form of: 75,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock ("Common Stock") to be granted to Executive on July 15, 2005. (ii) The restricted stock shares in this Section 4(b) shall be subject to the terms of the restricted stock plan and agreement under which they were issued. The restricted stock shares are intended to qualify as "qualified performance based compensation" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"). (iii) If Executive remains employed by the Company through the vesting date as set forth below, subject to Section 5, one-half of the restricted stock shares granted in this Section 4(b) shall vest on July 15, 2006. The remaining one-half of the restricted stock shares granted shall vest on July 15, 2007. However, subject to Section 5, vesting shall be postponed during any health-related leave of absence until Executive returns to work, unless such postponement is prohibited by law. (c) SIGNING BONUS - CASH PAYMENT. The Company shall pay Executive a signing bonus of $594,000 in one payment on July 15, 2005. (d) ANNUAL PERFORMANCE BONUS. (i) Subject to Section 5, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual performance bonus in the amount shown in the applicable row on the table attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes as Exhibit A for each of the calendar years 2005-2008 as indicated, if Executive remains employed through December 31 of each such calendar year ("Vesting Date"). Prior to payment of the annual performance bonus, the Board shall review the actual operating EBITDA performance, and determine the percentage of Target EBITDA (as defined herein) that the Company achieved for the applicable calendar year. The Board shall not unreasonably withhold approval of the payment of annual performance bonus upon its determination of the Company's actual EBITDA and the corresponding bonus due for that level of performance. The Company shall pay the performance bonus for a given year on (and not earlier or later than) May 1 of the following year. (ii) For calendar year 2005, Executive's partial year of employment is reflected by the bonus amount in Exhibit A, but the minimum bonus amount for year 2005 shall be no less than $110,000.00, regardless of the Company's EBITDA. (iii) Subject to section (iv) below, the Company's "Target EBITDA" as used herein for calendar years 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008 is, respectively, $60.0 million, $72.0 million, $79.0 million, and $87.0 million. (iv) EBITDA is as defined in Exhibit A; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 4, the Board has the final and sole discretion to determine the calculation of EBITDA, provided that such calculation is consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. If changes to the Company's portfolio are made, the Company shall adjust the applicable Target EBITDA as follows: -2- (1) If a property is sold or otherwise transferred to a third party, the Target EBITDA for the Year in which the sale occurs shall be reduced by the sold property's EBITDA for the trailing 12 full months through the date of the sale, and actual EBITDA for the Year shall exclude the sold property's EBITDA. For each subsequent Year, Target EBITDA shall be reduced by the sum of the reduction for the Year of sale plus 10 percent of that reduction for each Year since the Year of sale. (2) If a property is acquired, the Target EBITDA for the Year in which the purchase occurs shall be increased by the acquired property's EBITDA for the trailing 12 full months through the date of purchase, and actual EBITDA for the Year of purchase shall include the acquired property's EBITDA as if it had been acquired on the first day of the Year. For each subsequent Year, Target EBITDA shall be increased by the sum of the increase for the Year of purchase plus 10 percent of that increase for each Year since the Year of purchase. (3) For purposes of clauses (1) and (2), above, "Year" shall be deemed to be the annual performance bonus calendar year in question or, with respect to Section 4(e), the long-term compensation fiscal year in question. (v) The Company shall pay each performance bonus in cash on (and not earlier or later than) May 1st of the year immediately following the year to which the performance bonus relates. (e) LONG-TERM COMPENSATION. (i) Subject to Section 5, if Executive remains employed through December 31 of a calendar year during the Employment Term, the Company shall grant Executive 20,000 restricted shares of Common Stock for each such calendar year if (x) 100% of Target EBITDA is achieved for such calendar year, or (y) the average closing price of the Company's Common Stock for the last thirty (30) calendar days of such calendar year is at least at the Stock Price Threshold for such calendar year as described in Exhibit A. Such grant, if any, will occur on (and not earlier or later than) May 1 of the year immediately following the calendar year during which the event described in the preceding sub-clause (x) or (y), whichever applicable, occurs. (ii) Subject to Section 5, if Executive remains employed through December 31 of a calendar year during the Employment Term, in addition to Section 4(e)(i) above, the Company shall also grant Executive 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 and 40,000 restricted shares of Common Stock for 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively: (x) upon achievement of 110% of Target EBITDA for such calendar year, or (y) if substantially all of the assets of the Company are sold or a merger is consummated for at least a 20% premium over the respective Stock Price Threshold (determined as of the day before the sale or merger is approved by the Board) for such calendar year. Such grant, if any, will occur on (and not earlier or later than) May 1 of the year immediately following the calendar year during which the event described in the preceding sub-clause (x) or (y), whichever applicable, occurs. Subject to Section 4(e)(iii) and 5, the restricted share grants in this Section 4(e) shall vest in three (3) equal annual installments beginning on March 15 of the year immediately following the year of each grant as described in Section 4(e)(i) and 4(e)(ii) above. -3- (iii) The restricted stock granted under this Section 4(e) shall be subject to the terms of the stock plan and agreement under which they are issued. Notwithstanding Section 4(e)(ii) but subject to Section 5, vesting shall be postponed during any health-related leave of absence until Executive returns to work, unless such postponement is prohibited by law. (f) STANDARD BENEFITS. During Executive's employment, Executive shall be eligible to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs, including but not limited to paid vacations, medical/health/prescription and short and long term disability income protection coverage, to the same extent generally available to other similarly situated Company senior executives, in accordance with the terms of those plans and programs. During any waiting period (not to exceed one-hundred twenty (120) days) applicable to such employee medical plans and programs occurring during 2005, the Company will reimburse (within sixty (60) days of such reimbursement request, but in no event later than March 15, 2006) Executive and Executive's eligible dependents' COBRA premium to continue coverage under the health plan(s) in effect for Executive and Executive's eligible dependents immediately prior to the commencement of Executive's employment with the Company, if any. (g) INTEGRATION WITH DISABILITY BENEFITS.

The Company shall indemnify Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law with regard to Executive's action or inaction on behalf of the Company, which indemnification shall include the advancement of legal fees and other expenses on a current basis to the fullest extent permitted by law, which shall survive termination of Executive's employment.

However, Executive's termination shall not be deemed for Cause unless the Company sends Executive a written notice detailing the reasons it believes it has Cause to terminate Executive on or before the date it intends to do so. "Cause" shall mean: (i) Executive's willful refusal to follow the Board's lawful directions or Executive's material failure to perform Executive's duties (other than by reason of physical or mental illness, injury, or condition), in either case, only after Executive has been given written notice by the Board detailing the directives Executive has refused to follow or the duties Executive has failed to perform and granting Executive at least 30 days to cure; (ii) Executive's material and willful failure to comply with Company policies as applied to senior executives, only after Executive has been given written notice by the Board detailing the policies with which Executive has failed to comply and granting Executive at least 30 days to cure; (iii) Executive's: (1) engaging in an act of fraud or dishonesty that materially harms the Company or its affiliates; -8- (2) conviction of a felony or conviction for any violation of any federal or state securities law; (3) gross negligence in connection with any property or activity of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates ("Group"); (4) repeated and intemperate use of alcohol or illegal drugs after written notice from the Board; (5) material breach of any of Executive's obligations under this Agreement (other than by reason of physical or mental illness, injury, or condition), but only after Executive has been given written notice by the Board of the breach and granting Executive at least 30 days to cure; or (6) becoming barred or prohibited by the SEC from holding Executive's position with the Company.

Except as prohibited by applicable law, the Company may terminate this Agreement on account of Executive's Disability, or may transfer Executive to inactive employment status, which shall have the same effect under this Agreement as a termination for Disability. "Disability" means a physical or mental illness, injury, or condition that prevents Executive from performing substantially all of Executive's material duties under this Agreement for at least 90 consecutive calendar days or for at least 120 calendar days, whether or not consecutive, in any 365 calendar day period.

The Company's obligation to pay Executive the Notice Period Payment shall be in addition to any payments owed to Executive under Section 5(a)(iii) above. If Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause, Executive shall only receive the special benefits provided under the applicable provisions of Section 5(a)(iii) if: (x) Executive complies with the restrictive covenants (Section 6) and all post-termination obligations to which Executive is subject, including, but not limited, the obligations contained in this Agreement, and (y) Executive signs a release form, subject to negotiation as provided below, within the time prescribed by the Company which shall be no later than 45 days after Executive receives the release from the Company and before asserting any claims covered by the release against the Company other than claims pertaining to (i) Executive's right to severance benefits, (ii) the Company's continuing indemnification obligations to Executive under Section 4, and (iii) claims for defamation, slander and/or libel (the conditions set forth in the preceding sub-clauses (x) and (y) to be referred to as the "Separation Conditions"). The Company shall furnish the release to -9- Executive at Executive's termination. Subject to the exceptions in clauses (i) through (iii) of the second preceding sentence, the parties shall in good faith negotiate the final form of such release, but it shall include provisions customary in formal settlement agreements and general releases, including, but not limited to, such things as Executive's release of the Company and all related persons or entities ("affiliates") from all known and unknown claims, Executive's covenant never in the future to pursue any released claim, Executive's promise never seek employment with the Company or any affiliate in the future, but not including any provision that expands Executive's obligations to the Company as set forth in Section 5(i) below. The Company and Executive acknowledge that the severance benefits for which the release is required are intended to effect Executive's peaceful transition from the Company. If Executive chooses not to sign the release, Executive shall have the right to pursue any claims Executive may have, but Executive shall not be eligible to receive the severance benefits set forth in sub-clauses (1) through (6) of Section 5(a)(iii). Executive also acknowledges that the Company's obligation to provide any severance benefits under Section 5(a)(iii) shall terminate immediately upon any breach by Executive of any post-termination obligations to which he is subject; provided that the Company has provided prior written notice to Executive setting forth the post-termination obligations Executive is alleged to have breached and granting Executive 30 days to cure. (e) RESIGNATION FOR GOOD REASON. Executive may resign from employment for GOOD REASON, which shall mean the occurrence of any of the following without Executive's express written consent: (i) Relocation of Executive's primary office location more than 50 miles from the current location, as set forth in Section 3; (ii) Any change in or the Company's refusal to comply with the provisions of Section 2; (iii) Any diminution in Executive's title, or material diminution in his compensation or duties; (iv) Material failure by the Company to keep any promise or make any payment provided herein; (v) Change in Control as defined in Section 7 below; (vi) Any transfer to any subsidiary or affiliate or other change that removes Executive from the position of Chief Executive and President of the Company; (vii) Failure by the Company to continue, or continue Executive's participation in, any compensation plan in which Executive participates or is entitled to participate such that Executive's total compensation is reduced by more than five percent (5%); or (viii) Failure by the Company to continue, or continue Executive's participation in, any benefit plan in which Executive participates unless an equivalent substitute is adopted or made available on a basis not less favorable to Executive and Executive's spouse. -10- However, an event that is or would constitute Good Reason shall cease to be Good Reason if: (i) Executive does not provide the Company with written notice of Executive's intent to terminate Executive's employment due to an event that would constitute Good Reason within the earlier of 30 days after the occurrence of such event or 30 days after Executive is officially notified or it is officially announced that the Company will take any actions that would constitute Good Reason to resign, (ii) the Company reverses the action or cures the default that constitutes Good Reason within 30 days after receiving such written notice, (iii) Executive does not terminate employment within 60 days after the event occurs, (iv) Executive is a primary instigator of the Good Reason event other than a Change in Control and the circumstances make it inappropriate for Executive to receive benefits under this Agreement (e.g., Executive initiates a relocation of the Company's headquarters); or (v) the Company in good faith temporarily suspends Executive for no more than 30 days (with full pay) to investigate any suspected wrongdoing that, if substantiated, would give the Company reason to terminate Executive for Cause. If Executive resigns from employment for Good Reason as defined in this Section 5(e), Executive shall only receive the severance benefits set forth in sub-clauses (1) through (6) of Section 5(a)(iii) if Executive satisfies the Separation Conditions and any other obligations set forth in Section 5(d) above. (f) RESIGNATION WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Executive may terminate Executive's employment hereunder at any time without Good Reason upon providing the Company with 30 days written notice of Executive's intention to do so; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall be entitled to accept Executive's resignation as of any earlier date, and (ii) the Board may elect to terminate Executive's employment prior to the expiration of the 30-day notice period, in which event the Company will pay Executive his then-current base salary through the expiration of such notice period. Executive's termination under this Section 5(f) shall only entitle him to be eligible to receive the benefits in Section 5(a)(i). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other document, restricted stock shares and all other performance or incentive compensation shall cease vesting when Executive gives notice of resignation under this Section 5(f). (g) DEATH. If Executive dies while employed under this Agreement, the payments required by Section 5(a)(iv) in the event of Executive's death shall be made. (h) AMOUNTS OWED TO THE COMPANY. Any amounts payable to Executive under this Section shall first be applied to repay any liquidated amounts Executive owes the Company (i.e., personal expenses on Executive's credit card). (i) NO FURTHER OBLIGATIONS. Upon termination of employment for any reason, the Company and Executive shall have no further obligations to each other, except the Company's ongoing indemnification obligation under Section 4, and Executive's post-termination obligations under Sections 6 and 17, or as set forth in any written agreement Executive subsequently enters into with the Company. -11- (j) DELAY IN PAYMENTS TO COMPLY WITH CODE Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5 to the contrary, if Executive is a "specified employee" within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then any payment that is required to be made under the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 within the first six (6) months following Executive's "separation from service" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i)) with the Company shall not be paid prior to the date that is six (6) months after the date of the Executive's "separation from service" and shall be paid in a single lump sum payment after such six (6) month period has elapsed. 6.

The obligations under this Section 6(a) shall: (i) with regard to the Trade Secrets, remain in effect as long as the information constitutes a trade secret under applicable law, and (ii) with regard to the Confidential Information, remain in effect during Executive's employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years after Executive's employment with the Company ends for any reason. The confidentiality, property, and proprietary rights protections available in this Agreement are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any and all other rights to which the Company is entitled under federal and state law, including, but not limited to, rights provided under copyright laws, trade secret and confidential information laws, and laws concerning fiduciary duties. (b) PROMISE NOT TO SOLICIT. During Executive's employment and for a period of six (6) months after Executive's employment with the Company ends for any reason, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit, recruit or induce any Employee to (a) terminate his or her employment relationship with the Company or (b) work for any other person or entity engaged in the Business. -12- (c) PROMISE NOT TO ENGAGE IN CERTAIN EMPLOYMENT.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Executive from performing activities which he did not perform for the Company. Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree that the covenant set forth in this Section 6(c) shall not apply if Executive's employment terminates as a result of the expiration and non-extension of the Employment Term as set forth in Section 5(a)(v) above. (d) The capitalized terms set forth in sub-sections 6(a), (b), and (c) above shall be defined as follows: (i) "Business" shall mean the business of owning and operating hotels including, but not limited to, full-service hotels which have food and beverage operations and meeting spaces.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred by virtue of the consummation of any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to have substantially the same proportionate ownership in an -15- entity which owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Company immediately following such transaction or series of transactions.

FORMER EMPLOYERS. Except for the non-compete agreement with Pittsburgh Greentree Radisson Hotel, as previously disclosed by Executive, Executive is not subject to any employment, confidentiality, or other agreement or restriction that would prevent Executive from fully satisfying Executive's duties under this Agreement or that would be violated if Executive did so. Without the Company's prior written approval, Executive shall not disclose proprietary information belonging to a former employer or other entity without its written permission. Executive shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any liabilities, including defense costs, it may incur because Executive is alleged to have violated the provisions of this Section 17 or improperly revealed or used proprietary information of a former employer without its permission, or if a former employer challenges Executive's entering into this Agreement or rendering services pursuant to it. 18.

The Company shall not be barred from enforcing the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement by reason of any breach of any other part of this Agreement or any other agreement with Executive. Executive acknowledges that all understandings and agreements between the Company and Executive relating to the subjects covered in this Agreement are contained in it and that Executive has entered into this Agreement voluntarily and not in reliance on any promises or representations by the Company other than those contained in this Agreement itself.

EX-10.36 5 g96679exv10w36.txt EX-10.36 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT Exhibit 10.36 LODGIAN, INC. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of July 15, 2005 (the "Award Date"), by and between Lodgian, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation and Edward J. Rohling (the "Recipient"). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Amended and Restated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan of Lodgian, Inc. (the "Plan"); and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or a committee thereof has authorized the grant to Recipient of a restricted stock award under the Plan of the common stock of the Company ("Common Stock"), and the Company and Recipient wish to confirm herein the terms, conditions, and restrictions of the restricted stock award; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1 AWARD OF SHARES 1.1 Award of Shares. Subject to the terms, restrictions, limitations, and conditions stated herein, in that certain Executive Employment Agreement between the Recipient and the Company dated July 12, 2005 (the "Employment Agreement), and in the Plan, the Company hereby awards to Recipient 75,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Award Shares"). This award represents the compensation to be paid to Recipient pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Employment Agreement. 1.2 Vesting of Award Shares. Recipient shall become vested in a portion of the Award Shares based upon the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement. In the event of any ambiguity in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement or in the terms of the Employment Agreement which relate to the Award Shares, the good faith interpretation of the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors shall in all cases control. If the calculation of vested Shares in accordance with the Employment Agreement would result in a fraction of a share, any such fraction will be rounded to zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of the Award Shares in whole or in part. The Award Shares which have become vested pursuant to the Employment Agreement or by virtue of such acceleration are herein referred to as the "Vested Award Shares" and all Award Shares which are not Vested Award Shares are sometimes herein referred to as the "Unvested Award Shares." 1.3 Additional Condition to Award Shares. In order not to forfeit the Award Shares, Recipient must deliver to the Company, within the ten day period (the "Withholding Period") commencing on the date of occurrence of an event pursuant to which some or all of the Award Shares become "substantially vested" within the meaning of Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, either a check payable to the Company in the amount of all withholding or other tax obligations (whether federal, state or local) imposed on the Company by reason of the vesting of the Award Shares, or the Withholding Election described in Section 1.4. Upon receipt of payment in full of all withholding tax obligations, the Company shall cause a certificate representing the Award Shares which are the Vested Award Shares to be issued and delivered by the Share Custodian to the Recipient pursuant to the instructions of Recipient. 1.4 Optional Withholding Election. In lieu of paying the withholding tax obligation in cash, as described in Section 1.3, Recipient may elect to have the actual number of Vested Award Shares reduced by the smallest number of whole shares of Common Stock which, when multiplied by the fair market value of the Common Stock on the Vesting Date as determined by the Board of Directors, is sufficient to satisfy the amount of the withholding tax obligations imposed on the Company by reason of the vesting of the Award Shares (the "Withholding Election"). Recipient may make a Withholding Election only if all of the following conditions are met: (a) the Withholding Election must be made on or prior to the end of the Withholding Period by executing and delivering to the Company a properly completed Notice of Withholding Election, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto; (b) any Withholding Election made will be irrevocable; and (c) If Recipient is an Insider (an individual who is, on the relevant date, an officer, director or ten percent (10%) beneficial owner of any class of the Company's equity securities that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, all as defined under Section 16 of the Exchange Act), then a Withholding Election may only be made to the extent that such withholding of Shares (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 1.5 Investment Representations. Recipient hereby represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees with the Company as follows: (a) The Award Shares being acquired by Recipient will be acquired for Recipient's own account without the participation of any other person, with the intent of holding the Award Shares for investment and without the intent of participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Award Shares and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of the Award Shares, nor is Recipient aware of the existence of any distribution of the Award Shares; -2- (b) Recipient is not acquiring the Award Shares based upon any representation, oral or written, by any person with respect to the future value of, or income from, the Award Shares but rather upon an independent examination and judgment as to the prospects of the Company; (c) The Award Shares were not offered to Recipient by means of publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, nor is the Recipient aware of any offers made to other persons by such means; (d) Recipient is able to bear the economic risks of the investment in the Award Shares, including the risk of a complete loss of Recipient's investment therein; (e) The Award Shares cannot be offered for sale, sold or transferred by Recipient other than (A) in a transaction in compliance with the 1933 Act; and (B) upon presentation of evidence satisfactory to the Company of compliance with the applicable securities laws of other jurisdictions.

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of _______, 20 (the "Award Date"), by and between Lodgian, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation and ________________ (the "Recipient"). W I T N E S S E T H: WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Amended and Restated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan of Lodgian, Inc. (the "Plan"); and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or a committee thereof has authorized the grant to Recipient of a restricted stock award under the Plan of the common stock of the Company ("Common Stock"), and the Company and Recipient wish to confirm herein the terms, conditions, and restrictions of the restricted stock award; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1 AWARD OF SHARES 1.1 Award of Shares. Subject to the terms, restrictions, limitations, and conditions stated herein, in that certain Executive Employment Agreement between the Recipient and the Company dated ________________, 20 (the "Employment Agreement), and in the Plan, the Company hereby awards to Recipient ___________ shares of Common Stock (the "Award Shares"). 1.2 Vesting of Award Shares. Recipient shall become vested in a portion of the Award Shares based upon the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement. In the event of any ambiguity in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement or in the terms of the Employment Agreement which relate to the Award Shares, the good faith interpretation of the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors shall in all cases control. If the calculation of vested Shares in accordance with the Employment Agreement would result in a fraction of a share, any such fraction will be rounded to zero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of the Award Shares in whole or in part. The Award Shares which have become vested pursuant to the Employment Agreement or by virtue of such acceleration are herein referred to as the "Vested Award Shares" and all Award Shares which are not Vested Award Shares are sometimes herein referred to as the "Unvested Award Shares." 1.3 Additional Condition to Award Shares. In order not to forfeit the Award Shares, Recipient must deliver to the Company, within the ten day period (the "Withholding Period") commencing on the date of occurrence of an event pursuant to which some or all of the Award Shares become "substantially vested" within the meaning of Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, either a check payable to the Company in the amount of all withholding or other tax obligations (whether federal, state or local) imposed on the Company by reason of the vesting of the Award Shares, or the Withholding Election described in Section 1.4. Upon receipt of payment in full of all withholding tax obligations, the Company shall cause a certificate representing the Award Shares which are the Vested Award Shares to be issued and delivered by the Share Custodian to the Recipient pursuant to the instructions of Recipient. 1.4 Optional Withholding Election. In lieu of paying the withholding tax obligation in cash, as described in Section 1.3, Recipient may elect to have the actual number of Vested Award Shares reduced by the smallest number of whole shares of Common Stock which, when multiplied by the fair market value of the Common Stock on the Vesting Date as determined by the Board of Directors, is sufficient to satisfy the amount of the withholding tax obligations imposed on the Company by reason of the vesting of the Award Shares (the "Withholding Election"). Recipient may make a Withholding Election only if all of the following conditions are met: (a) the Withholding Election must be made on or prior to the end of the Withholding Period by executing and delivering to the Company a properly completed Notice of Withholding Election, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT A attached hereto; (b) any Withholding Election made will be irrevocable; and (c) If Recipient is an Insider (an individual who is, on the relevant date, an officer, director or ten percent (10%) beneficial owner of any class of the Company's equity securities that is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, all as defined under Section 16 of the Exchange Act), then a Withholding Election may only be made to the extent that such withholding of Shares (1) has met the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (2) is a subsequent transaction the terms of which were provided for in a transaction initially meeting the requirements of an exemption under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 1.5 Investment Representations. Recipient hereby represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees with the Company as follows: (a) The Award Shares being acquired by Recipient will be acquired for Recipient's own account without the participation of any other person, with the intent of holding the Award Shares for investment and without the intent of participating, directly or indirectly, in a distribution of the Award Shares and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution of the Award Shares, nor is Recipient aware of the existence of any distribution of the Award Shares; -2- (b) Recipient is not acquiring the Award Shares based upon any representation, oral or written, by any person with respect to the future value of, or income from, the Award Shares but rather upon an independent examination and judgment as to the prospects of the Company; (c) The Award Shares were not offered to Recipient by means of publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, nor is the Recipient aware of any offers made to other persons by such means; (d) Recipient is able to bear the economic risks of the investment in the Award Shares, including the risk of a complete loss of Recipient's investment therein; (e) The Award Shares cannot be offered for sale, sold or transferred by Recipient other than (A) in a transaction in compliance with the 1933 Act; and (B) upon presentation of evidence satisfactory to the Company of compliance with the applicable securities laws of other jurisdictions. The Company shall be entitled to rely upon an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it with respect to compliance with the above laws; (f) The Company will be under no obligation to register the Award Shares for resale or to comply with any exemption available for sale of the Award Shares without registration or filing, and the information or conditions necessary to permit routine sales of securities of the Company under Rule 144 of the 1933 Act are not now available and no assurance has been given that it or they will become available. The Company is under no obligation to act in any manner so as to make Rule 144 available with respect to the Award Shares; and (g) The agreements, representations, warranties, and covenants made by Recipient herein extend to and apply to all of the Award Shares of the Company issued to Recipient pursuant to this restricted stock award. Acceptance by Recipient of the certificate representing such Award Shares shall constitute a confirmation by Recipient that all such agreements, representations, warranties, and covenants made herein shall be true and correct at that time. SECTION 2 FORFEITURE OF AWARD SHARES Any Unvested Award Shares that are held for the benefit of the Recipient, at and after the termination of employment of the Recipient by the Company, shall, unless the Employment Agreement otherwise expressly provides, be forfeited by the Recipient at such time and returned, marked "cancelled," to the Company. Until an Award Share has been released to the Recipient, or cancelled and returned to the Company as provided herein or in the Employment Agreement, it shall be held by the General Counsel of the Company, acting as share custodian (the "Share Custodian"), for the benefit of the Recipient, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Employment Agreement.

No fractional shares shall be issued in making such adjustment. All adjustments made by the Board of Directors under this Section shall be final, binding, and conclusive. 3.2 Legends.
