Explanation of Responses:

1. Each Paired Share is comprised of one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Extended Stay America, Inc. and one share of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of ESH Hospitality, Inc., which shares are paired and traded as a single unit.

2. The reported transaction is an award of Restricted Stock Units in respect of Paired Shares. A Form 4 reflecting the transaction in Paired Shares by the reporting person shown on this Form 4 has been concurrently filed with respect to Extended Stay America, Inc. as issuer.

Subject to the reporting person's continued service as a director of the issuer through the vesting date, these Restricted Stock Units are scheduled to vest in full on May 28, 2021.
