CHATHAM LODGING TRUST
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)
1. Organization
          Chatham Lodging Trust was formed as a Maryland real estate investment trust on October 26, 2009 and intends to elect to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with its short taxable year ended December 31, 2010. We are internally-managed and were organized to invest primarily in premium-branded upscale extended-stay and select-service hotels.
          We completed our initial public offering (the “IPO”) on April 21, 2010. The IPO resulted in the sale of 8,625,000 common shares at $20.00 price per share, generating $172.5 million in gross proceeds. Net proceeds, after underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other offering costs, were approximately $158.7 million. Concurrently with the closing of the IPO, in a separate private placement pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, we sold 500,000 of our common shares to Jeffrey H. Fisher, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, at the public offering price of $20.00 per share, for proceeds of $10.0 million.
          On February 8, 2011, we completed a public offering that resulted in the sale of 4,600,000 common shares at $16.00 per share, generating $73.6 million in gross proceeds. Net proceeds, after underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other offering costs, were approximately $69.4 million.
          We had no operations prior to the consummation of the IPO. Following the closing of the IPO, we contributed the net proceeds from the IPO and the concurrent private placement, as well as the proceeds of our February 2011 offering, to Chatham Lodging, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) in exchange for partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Substantially all of our assets are held by and all of our operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership. Chatham Lodging Trust is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and owns 100% of the common units of the limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. Certain of our executive officers hold unvested long-term incentive plan units in the Operating Partnership, which are presented as noncontrolling interests on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
          As of June 30, 2011, we owned 13 hotels with an aggregate of 1,650 rooms located in 9 states. To qualify as a REIT, we cannot operate the hotels. Therefore, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries lease the hotels to wholly owned taxable REIT lessee subsidiaries (“TRS Lessees”). Each hotel is leased to a TRS Lessee under a percentage lease that provides for rental payments equal to the greater of (i) a fixed base rent amount or (ii) a percentage rent based on hotel room revenue. The initial term of each of the TRS leases is 5 years. Lease revenue from each TRS Lessee is eliminated in consolidation. Our TRS Lessees have entered into management agreements with third party management companies that provide day-to-day management for our hotels. Island Hospitality Management Inc. (“IHM”), which is 90% owned by Mr. Fisher, manages 5 hotels, Homewood Suites Management LLC, a subsidiary of Hilton Worldwide Inc. (“Hilton”) manages 6 hotels and Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company manages 2 hotels.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
          Basis of Presentation
          The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and in conformity with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial information. These unaudited consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance due to seasonal and other factors including the timing of the acquisition of hotels.
          The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP, and the related notes thereto as of December 31, 2010, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Table of Contents

          Use of Estimates
          The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
          In December 2010, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance to clarify that pro forma disclosures should be presented as if a business combination occurred at the beginning of the prior annual period for purposes of preparing both the current reporting period and the prior reporting period pro forma financial information. These disclosures should be accompanied by a narrative description about the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The new accounting guidance is effective for business combinations consummated in periods beginning after December 14, 2010, and should be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. We have adopted the new disclosures as of January 1, 2011.
4. Acquisition of Hotel Properties
          Acquisition of Hotel Properties
          No acquisitions were completed in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The Company incurred acquisition costs of $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.
5. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
          The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts at a level believed to be adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. That estimate is based on past loss experience, current economic and market conditions and other relevant factors.
6. Investment in Hotel Properties
          Investment in hotel properties as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, consisted of the following (in thousands):
                 
    June 30, 2011     December 31, 2010  
Land and improvements
  $ 24,695     $ 24,620

Investment in hotel properties, net
  $ 210,543     $ 208,080  
 
           
7. Investment in Joint Venture
          On May 3, 2011, INK Acquisition LLC (the “JV”), a joint venture between Cerberus Capital Management and Chatham Lodging, L.P., was selected as the winning bidder in a bankruptcy court auction related to 64 of Innkeepers USA Trust’s (the “Sellers”) hotels. The Company paid a $2.4 million deposit into escrow upon the JV being named the winning bidder. The deposit is included in restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2011. Under the terms of the winning bid, subject to the terms and conditions of the bid, the JV will acquire the hotels for a total purchase price of approximately $1.125 billion, including the assumption of approximately $725 million of mortgage debt secured by 45 of the hotels, through a plan of reorganization. The Company’s expected investment of $37 million will at closing represent less than a 10% interest in the JV and will be funded through available cash and borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility.

8. Debt
          Each of the Company’s mortgage loans is secured by a first-mortgage lien on the underlying property. The mortgages are non-recourse except for fraud or misapplication of funds. Mortgage debt consisted of the following (in thousands):
                                 
                    Balance Outstanding as of  
    Interest     Maturity     June 30,     December 31,  
Collateral   Rate     Date     2011     2010  
Courtyard by Marriott Altoona, PA
    5.96 %   April 1, 2016   $ 6,839     $ 6,924  
Springhill Suites by Marriott Washington, PA
    5.84 %   April 1, 2015     5,335       5,408  
 
                           
 
                  $ 12,174     $ 12,332  
 
                           
          The Company estimates the fair value of its fixed rate debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates. Rates take into consideration general market conditions and maturity. The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt in thousands as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $12,373 and $12,574, respectively.
          On October 12, 2010, the Company entered into a $85 million senior secured revolving credit facility to fund future acquisition, redevelopment and expansion activities. At June 30, 2011, we had no outstanding borrowings under this credit facility. At June 30, 2011, there were eleven properties in the borrowing base under the credit agreement and the maximum borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $84.3 million.
          The Company amended its $85 million senior secured revolving credit facility effective May 2011. The amendment provides for an increase to the allowable consolidated leverage ratio to 60 percent through 2012, reducing to 55 percent in 2013; and a decrease to the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio from 2.3x to 1.7x through March 2012, increasing to 1.75x through December 2012 and 2.0x in 2013. Subject to certain conditions, the credit facility still has an accordion feature that provides the Company with the ability to increase the facility to $110 million, subject to lender approval. The Company paid $0.5 million in connection with this amendment.
          As of June 30, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants. Future scheduled principal payments of debt obligations as of June 30, 2011 are as follows (in thousands):

9. Income Taxes
          The Company’s TRS Lessees are subject to federal and state income taxes. The Company’s TRS Lessees are structured under one of two TRS holding companies that are treated separately for income tax purposes (TRS 1 and TRS 2, respectively). The consolidated income tax expense is solely attributable to the taxable income of TRS 2. TRS 1 has future taxable income deductions of $0.3 million related to accumulated net operating losses from 2010 and 2011 and the gross deferred tax asset associated with these future tax deductions is $0.1 million. TRS 1 has recorded a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the gross deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefit of this deferred asset due to the TRS Lessees limited operating history and the cumulative taxable losses incurred by TRS 1 since its inception.

10. Dividends Declared and Paid
          The Company declared common share dividends of $0.175 per share and distributions on LTIP units of $0.175 per unit for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The dividends and distributions were paid on July 15, 2011 to common shareholders and LTIP unit holders of record on June 30, 2011. The Company paid dividends declared for the 1st quarter of 2011 on April 15, 2011.
11. Shareholders’ Equity
Common Shares
          The Company is authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”), $.01 par value per share. Each outstanding common share entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Holders of the Company’s common shares are entitled to receive dividends when authorized by our board of trustees.
          The Company completed a public offering of common shares on February 8, 2011. The offering resulted in the sale of 4,600,000 common shares at a $16.00 price per share generating $73.6 million in gross proceeds. Net proceeds were approximately $69.4 million after underwriters’ discounts and commissions and other offering costs paid to third parties. As of June 30, 2011, 13,819,939 common shares were outstanding.
          During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company received 915 common shares of beneficial interest for a repurchase price of $16.43 per share related to an executive surrendering shares to pay taxes at the time restricted shares vested. The price per share is determined by using the closing price of our shares the day before they are surrendered.
Preferred Shares
          The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 preferred shares, $.01 par value per share.
Operating Partnership Units
          When issued, holders of Operating Partnership common units will have certain redemption rights, which will enable the unit holders to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their units in exchange for, at the Company’s option, cash per unit equal to the market price of the Company’s common shares at the time of redemption or for the Company’s common shares on a one-for-one basis. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the redemption rights will be adjusted upon the occurrence of share splits, mergers, consolidations or similar pro-rata share transactions, which otherwise would have the effect of diluting the ownership interests of our limited partners or our shareholders. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were no Operating Partnership common units held by unaffiliated third parties. At June 30, 2011, an aggregate of 257,775 LTIP Units are held by executive officers. The LTIP Units receive per unit distributions equal to the per share distribution paid on common shares.
          Net proceeds from the February 8, 2011 common share offering were contributed to the Operating Partnership by the Company in exchange for 4,600,000 common units of the Operating Partnership.

13. Equity Incentive Plan
          The Company maintains the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan to attract and retain independent trustees, executive officers and other key employees and service providers. The plan provides for the grant of options to purchase common shares, share awards, share appreciation rights, performance units and other equity-based awards. Share awards under this plan generally vest over three to five years, though the independent trustees share compensation includes shares granted that vest immediately. The Company pays dividends on unvested shares and units. Certain awards may provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control. In January 2011, the Company issued 12,104 common shares to its independent trustees as compensation for services performed in 2010. A portion of the Company’s share-based compensation to the Company’s trustees for the year ended December 31, 2011 will be distributed on December 31, 2011 in the form of common shares. The quantity of shares will be calculated based on the average closing prices for the Company’s common shares on the NYSE for the last ten trading days preceding the reporting date. The Company would have distributed 9,529 common shares had the liability classified award been satisfied as of June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, there were 211,730 common shares available for issuance under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.
          In the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company separately presented unvested stock-based compensation as a contra account to shareholder’s equity. In connection with the preparation of its financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company has presented the stock-based compensation as an addition to additional paid-in-capital when recognized as expense, in accordance with the standards which apply to stock-based compensation, for all periods presented. The Company concluded that the revision to the amounts as of December 31, 2010 do not have a material impact on any of its previously issued financial statements.
          Restricted Share Awards
          The Company measures compensation expense for restricted share awards based upon the fair market value of its common shares at the date of grant. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period and is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company pays dividends on nonvested restricted shares.

    54,513     $ 18.90       76,550     $ 19.04  
 
                           
          As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted share awards. As of June 30, 2011, these costs were expected to be recognized over a weighted—average period of approximately 1.9 years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized approximately $0.2 and $0.3 million respectively, in expense related to the restricted share awards. This expense is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
          Long-Term Incentive Plan Units
          LTIP Units are a special class of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership which may be issued to eligible participants for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Company. Under the Equity Incentive Plan, each LTIP Unit issued is deemed equivalent to an award of one common share thereby reducing the availability for other equity awards on a one-for-one basis. The Company does not receive a tax deduction for the value of any LTIP Units granted to employees. LTIP Units, whether vested or not, receive the same per unit profit distributions as other outstanding units of the Operating Partnership, which profit distribution will generally equal per share dividends on the Company’s common shares. Initially, LTIP Units have a capital account balance of zero, and do not have full parity with common Operating Partnership units with respect to liquidating distributions. The Operating Partnership will revalue its assets upon the occurrence of certain specified events and any increase in valuation will be allocated first to the holders of LTIP Units to equalize the capital accounts of such holders with the capital accounts of the Operating Partnership unit holders. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP Units may be converted, at any time, into an equal number of common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), which may be redeemed, at the option of the holder, for cash or at the Company’s option an equivalent number of the Company’s common shares.
          On April 21, 2010, the Company’s Operating Partnership granted 246,960 LTIP Units to the Company’s executive officers pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan, all of which are accounted for in accordance with FASB Codification Topic (“ASC”) 718, “Stock Compensation”. On September 9, 2010, the Company’s Operating Partnership granted 26,250 LTIP units to the Company’s new CFO and 15,435 LTIP units granted to the Company’s former CFO were forfeited. These LTIP Units vest ratably over a five-year period beginning on the date of grant.
          The LTIP Units’ fair value was determined by using a discounted value approach. In determining the discounted value of the LTIP Units, the Company considered the inherent uncertainty that the LTIP Units would never reach parity with the other OP Units and thus have an economic value of zero to the grantee. Additional factors considered in reaching the assumptions of uncertainty included discounts for illiquidity; expectations for future dividends; limited or no operating history as of the date of the grant; significant dependency on the efforts and services of our executive officers and other key members of management to implement the Company’s business plan; available acquisition opportunities; and economic environment and conditions. The Company used an expected stabilized dividend yield of 5.0% and a risk free interest rate of 2.33% based on a five-year U.S. Treasury yield.
          The Company recorded $0.2 and $0.4 million in compensation expense related to the LTIP Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, there was $3.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to LTIP Units. This cost is expected to be recognized over approximately 3.9 years, which represents the weighted average remaining vesting period of the LTIP Units. As of June 30, 2011, none of the LTIP Units have reached parity.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
          Litigation
          The nature of the operations of the hotels exposes the hotels, the Company and the Operating Partnership to the risk of claims and litigation in the normal course of their business. The Company is not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is any litigation threatened.

          Hotel Ground Rent
          The Altoona hotel is subject to a ground lease with an expiration date of April 30, 2029 with an extension option of up to 12 additional terms of five years each. Monthly payments are determined by the quarterly average room occupancy of the hotel. Rent is equal to approximately $7,000 per month when monthly occupancy is less than 85% and can increase up to approximately $20,000 per month if occupancy is 100%, with minimum rent increased on an annual basis by two and one-half percent (2.5%).
          In connection with the New Rochelle hotel, there is an air rights lease and garage lease that expire on December 1, 2104. The lease agreements with the City of New Rochelle cover the space above the parking garage that is occupied by the hotel as well as 128 parking spaces in a parking garage that is attached to the hotel. The annual base rent for the garage lease is the hotel’s proportionate share of the city’s adopted budget for the operations, management and maintenance of the garage and established reserves fund for the cost of capital repairs.
The following is a schedule of the minimum future obligation payments required under the ground leases (in thousands):

          Hotel Acquisitions
          On May 3, 2011, the JV, was selected as the winning bidder to purchase 64 hotels, subject to the terms and conditions of the bid, from Innkeepers USA Trust. The Company’s expected investment of $37.0 million will at closing represent less than a 10% interest in the JV.
          On May 3, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase five hotels from affiliates of Innkeepers Trust USA for $195 million. The Company closed the purchase of the five hotels on July 14, 2011.
15. Related Party Transactions
          Mr. Fisher owns 90% of IHM, a hotel management company. The Company has entered into hotel management agreements with IHM to manage five of its hotels and on July 14, 2011, entered into hotel management agreements with IHM for the management of the five hotels acquired from Innkeepers. All but one of the 64 hotels acquired by the JV from Innkeepers will continue to be managed by IHM. Management and accounting fees paid to IHM for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 $0.0 million.
16. Subsequent Events
          As noted above, on May 3, 2011, the JV was selected as the winning bidder in a bankruptcy court auction related to 64 hotels described above under Note 7, Investment in Joint Venture. The Company paid a $2.4 million deposit into escrow upon the JV being named the winning bidder. The deposit is included in restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2011. Under the terms of the winning bid, subject to the terms and conditions of the bid, the JV will acquire the hotels for a total purchase price of approximately $1.125 billion, including the assumption of approximately $725 million of mortgage debt secured by 45 of the hotels, through a plan of reorganization. The Company’s expected investment of  $37.0 million will at closing represent a 10% interest in the JV and will be funded through available cash and borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility.
          Also, on May 3, 2011, the Company was selected as the winning bidder in a bankruptcy court auction related to five additional hotels owned by affiliates of the Sellers. The Company has executed a purchase agreement with the Sellers to acquire the five hotels, (“the five sisters”) comprising 764 rooms in the aggregate, for $195 million:

          The five-hotel acquisition was funded through the assumption of five individual loans aggregating $134.2 million at a weighted average interest rate of 6 percent and with maturity dates in 2016 with the remainder funded from available cash and borrowings under the Company’s secured revolving credit facility. The five loans will amortize based on a 30-year amortization period, other than the loan related to the hotel in Garden Grove which will be interest only for the first two years after closing. The Company closed on the acquisition of the five sisters on July 14, 2011.
          All of the 5 hotels acquired by the Company from the Sellers will continue to be managed by IHM, a hotel management company 90 percent-owned by Jeff Fisher.
          The Company borrowed $57.0 million under the senior secured credit facility on July 15, 2011 to partially fund the acquisition of the 5 sister hotels.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
          The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information
          The following information contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of the lodging industry, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, cash flow and plans and objectives. These statements generally are characterized by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “continue,” “intend,” “should,” “may” or similar expressions. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, our actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that might cause such a difference include the following: the local, national and global economic conditions, increased direct competition, changes in government regulations or accounting rules, changes in local, national and global real estate conditions, declines in lodging industry fundamentals, seasonality of the lodging industry, our ability to obtain debt and equity financing on satisfactory terms, changes in interest rates, our ability to identify suitable investments, our ability to close on identified investments and inaccuracies of our accounting estimates. Given these uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risk factors identified in the “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as updated elsewhere in this report.
Overview
          We are a self-advised hotel investment company organized in October 2009. Our investment strategy is to invest in premium-branded upscale extended-stay and select-service hotels in geographically diverse markets with high barriers to entry near strong demand generators. We may acquire portfolios of hotels or single hotels. We expect that a significant portion of our portfolio will consist of hotels in the upscale extended-stay or select-service categories, including brands such as Homewood Suites by Hilton®, Residence Inn by Marriott®, Summerfield Suites by Hyatt®, Courtyard by Marriott®, Hampton Inn® and Hampton Inn and Suites®.
          We focus on premium-branded, select-service hotels in high growth markets with high barriers to entry concentrated primarily in the 25 largest metropolitan markets in the United States. We believe the opportunities to acquire our target hotels are very attractive based on the belief that we are in the early stages of a lodging recovery.
          In February 2011, we completed a $73.6 million follow-on common share equity offering, adding capital to our balance sheet. With these funds we had available for investment as well as borrowing capacity, we have acquired 5 hotels for $195 million.
          Our long-term goal is to maintain our leverage at a ratio of net debt to investment in hotels (at cost) at less than 35 percent. However, at this early stage of the lodging cycle recovery, we may temporarily increase our leverage to take advantage of available opportunities. In the 2011 second quarter, our Board of Trustees approved the increase in our targeted leverage to not more than 55 percent, excluding our pro rata share of assets and liabilities of the JV.
          Future growth through acquisitions will be funded by both issuances of common and preferred shares, draw-downs under our credit facility, as well as the incurrence or assumption of individually secured hotel debt.
          We believe 2011 and beyond will offer attractive growth for the industry and for Chatham. We intend to acquire quality assets at attractive prices, improve their returns through knowledgeable asset management and seasoned, proven hotel management while remaining prudently leveraged.
          We intend to elect to qualify for treatment as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. In order to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), we cannot operate our hotels. Therefore, our operating partnership, Chatham Lodging, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and its subsidiaries lease our hotel properties to taxable REIT lessee subsidiaries (“TRS Lessees”), who will in turn engage eligible independent contractors to manage the hotels. Each of these lessees will be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes and will be evaluated for consolidation within our financial statements for accounting purposes. However, since we control both the Operating Partnership and the TRS Lessees, our principal source of funds on a consolidated basis is from the

15


Table of Contents

operations of our hotels. The earnings of the TRS Lessees are subject to taxation as regular C corporations, as defined in the Code, potentially reducing the TRS Lessees’ cash available to pay dividends to us, and therefore our funds from operations and the cash available for distribution to our shareholders.
Financial Condition and Operating Performance Metrics
          We measure financial condition and hotel operating performance by evaluating financial metrics such as:
    Revenue Per Available Room (“RevPAR”),
 
    Average Daily Rate (“ADR”),
 
    Occupancy percentage,
 
    Funds From Operations (“FFO”),
 
    Adjusted FFO,

          We evaluate the hotels in our portfolio and potential acquisitions using these metrics to determine each hotel’s contribution toward providing income to our shareholders through increases in distributable cash flow and increasing long-term total returns through appreciation in the value of our common shares. RevPAR, ADR and Occupancy are hotel industry measures commonly used to evaluate operating performance. RevPAR is calculated as total room revenue divided by total number of available rooms and is a metric for monitoring hotel operating performance.
          Please refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a detailed discussion of our use of FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income or loss, a GAAP measurement.
Results of Operations
Industry outlook
          We believe that the hotel industry’s performance is correlated to the performance of the economy overall, and with key economic indicators such as GDP growth, employment trends and corporate profits improving, we expect continuing improvement in the performance of the hotel industry. As reported by Smith Travel Research, after 19 consecutive months of declining year over year RevPAR, monthly industry RevPAR has been higher year over year since March 2010.
          While the U.S. hotel industry has shown improvement since the time of our IPO and we are encouraged by these improvements, industry operating performance remains significantly below peak pre-2008 levels. Hotel industry operating performance historically has correlated with U.S. GDP growth, and a number of economists and government agencies currently predict that the U.S. economy will grow over the next several years. We believe that U.S. GDP growth, coupled with limited supply of new hotels, will lead to increases in lodging industry RevPAR and hotel operating profits.
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 (“2011”) to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 (“2010”)
          Results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011 include the operating activities of the 13 hotels owned at June 30, 2011 and are not indicative of the results we expect when our investment strategy has been fully executed. We owned 6 hotels at June 30, 2010 for 69 days during the quarter. The Company completed its initial public offering on April 21, 2010.
          As reported by Smith Travel Research, industry RevPar for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was up 8.1% and up 6.2% respectively. RevPar at our hotels was up 3.3% and 4.5% in 2011 and 2010, which includes periods prior to our ownership for the three months ended June 30, 2010. In addition, five of our 13 hotels were undergoing significant renovations in 2011.
Revenues
          Total revenue was $14.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to total revenue of $4.7 million for the 2010 period. Since all of our hotels are select service or limited service hotels, room revenue is the primary revenue source as these hotels do not have significant food and beverage revenue or large group conference facilities. Room revenue was $14.5 and $4.5 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
     Since room revenue is the primary component of total revenue, our revenue results are dependent on maintaining and improving hotel occupancy, ADR and RevPAR at our hotels. Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR results are presented in the

following table in each period to reflect operation of the hotels from the date of acquisition of the hotels:

          Other operating revenue, comprised of meeting room, gift shop, in-room movie and other ancillary amenities revenue, was $0.4 and $0.1 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The overall increase is due primarily to the 2010 acquisition properties resulting in 13 hotels owned for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to owning the six initial acquisition hotels owned for only 69 days in 2010.
Hotel Operating Expenses
          Hotel operating expenses increased $5.6 million from $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30 2011. As a percentage of total revenue, hotel operating expenses were 56% for 2011 and 57% for 2010, which decrease is expected as ADR grows year over year. Room expenses, which are the most significant component of hotel operating expenses, increased $2.1 million from $1.1 million in 2010 to $3.2 million in 2011. Other direct expenses, which include management and franchise fees, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, advertising and sales, and hotel general and administrative expenses increased $3.5 million from $1.6 million in 2010 to $5.1 million in 2011. The overall increase is due primarily to the fact that the Company owned the 13 hotels during the quarter ended June 20, 2011 compared to 69 days of ownership of the six initial acquisition hotels in 2010.
Depreciation and Amortization
          Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.4 million from $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due to the increased number of hotels during the 2011 period and the disposition and replacement of furniture and fixtures at five hotels where major property improvement plans were completed during the quarter. Depreciation is recorded on our hotel buildings over 40 years from the date of acquisition. Depreciable lives of hotel furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally three to ten years between the date of acquisition and the date that the furniture, fixtures and equipment will be replaced. Amortization of franchise fees is recorded over the term of the respective franchise agreement.
Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes
Total property tax and insurance expenses increased $0.9 million from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due primarily to the increased number of hotels owned during the 2011 period.
Corporate General and Administrative
          Corporate general and administrative expenses principally consist of employee-related costs, including base payroll and amortization of restricted stock and awards of long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) units. These expenses also include corporate operating costs, professional fees and trustees’ fees. Total corporate general and administrative expenses (excluding amortization of unearned compensation of $0.4 and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and for the three months ended June 30, 2010, respectively) increased $0.4 million to $1.2 million in 2011 from $0.8 million in 2010. This increase was primarily due to the fact the 2010 second quarter comprised only 69 days while the 2011 second quarter comprised 91 days.
Hotel Property Acquisition Costs
          Hotel property acquisition costs increased $0.4 million from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. These expenses relate to the acquisition of hotels formerly owned by Innkeepers USA Trust (“Innkeepers”) described in Note 16, Subsequent Events, in the notes to our financial statements above. These acquisition-related costs are expensed when incurred.

Interest and Other Income
          Interest income on cash and cash equivalents decreased $32,000 from $38,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease was due to the decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $83.7 million from $98.7 million at June 30, 2010 to $15.0 million at June 30, 2011. We had not fully invested the cash from its IPO in the 2010 period.
Interest Expense
          Interest expense increased $0.6 million from $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 due to interest cost on two loans we assumed in the third quarter of 2010, unused commitment fees on our senior secured revolving credit facility originated in the third quarter of 2010 and amortization of deferred financing fees of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 relating to the two loans and the credit facility. There were no loans outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Income Tax Expense
          Income tax expense decreased $35,000 from $47,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $12,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. We are subject to income taxes based on the taxable income of our TRS holding companies at a tax rate of approximately 40%.
Net loss applicable to Common Shareholders
          Net loss applicable to common shareholders increased $1.3 million from a loss of $0.6 million, or ($0.09) per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to a loss of $1.9 million, or ($0.14) per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase was due to the factors discussed above.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 (“2011”) to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 (“2010”)
          Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 include the operating activities of the 13 hotels owned at June 30, 2011 and are not indicative of the results we expect when our investment strategy has been fully executed. We owned 6 hotels at June 30, 2010 for 69 days during the year. The Company completed its initial public offering on April 21, 2010.
          As reported by Smith Travel Research, industry RevPar for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was up 8.5% and up 2.3% respectively. RevPar at our hotels was up 0.9% and 2.5% in 2011 and 2010, which includes periods prior to our ownership for the six months ended June 30, 2010. In addition five of our 13 hotels were undergoing significant renovations in 2011.
Revenues
          Total revenue was $27.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to total revenue of $4.7 million for the 2010 period. Since all of our hotels are select service or limited service hotels, room revenue is the primary revenue source as these hotels do not have significant food and beverage revenue or large group conference facilities. Room revenue was $26.6 and $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
          Since room revenue is the primary component of total revenue, our revenue results are dependent on maintaining and improving occupancy, ADR and RevPAR at our hotels. Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR results are presented in the following table in each period to reflect operations of the hotels form the date of our acquisition of the hotels:
                 
    For the six months ended     69 Days Ended

          Other operating revenue, comprised of meeting room, gift shop, in-room movie and other ancillary amenities revenue, was $0.8 and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The overall increase is due primarily to the 2010 acquisition properties resulting in 13 hotels owned for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six initial acquisition hotels owned for only 69 days in 2010.

Hotel Operating Expenses
          Hotel operating expenses increased $13.5 million from $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $16.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. As a percentage of total revenue, hotel operating expenses were 59% for 2011 and 57% for 2010. Room expenses, which are the most significant component of hotel operating expenses, increased $5.1 million from $1.1 million in 2010 to $6.2 million in 2011. Other direct expenses, which include management and franchise fees, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, advertising and sales, and hotel general and administrative expenses increased $8.4 million from $1.6 million in 2010 to $10.0 million in 2011. The overall increase is due primarily to the fact that the Company owned 13 hotels during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 69 days of ownership of the six initial acquisition hotels in the 2010 period.
Depreciation and Amortization
          Depreciation and amortization expense increased $4.8 million from $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due to the increased number of hotels owned during the 2011 period and the disposition and replacement of furniture and fixtures at five hotels where major property improvement plans were completed during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Depreciation is recorded on our hotel buildings over 40 years from the date of acquisition. Depreciable lives of hotel furniture, fixtures and equipment are generally three to ten years between the date of acquisition and the date that the furniture, fixtures and equipment will be replaced. Amortization of franchise fees is recorded over the term of the respective franchise agreement.
Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes
          Total property tax and insurance expenses increased $1.9 million from $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is due primarily to increased number of hotels owned during the 2011 period.
Corporate General and Administrative
          Corporate general and administrative expenses principally consist of employee-related costs, including base payroll and amortization of restricted stock and awards of long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) units. These expenses also include corporate operating costs, professional fees and trustees’ fees. Total corporate general and administrative expenses (excluding amortization of unearned compensation of $0.8 and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively) increased $1.3 million to $2.1 million in 2011 from $0.8 million in 2010. This increase was primarily due to the fact the 2010 period comprised only 69 days while the 2011 period comprised 181 days.
Hotel Property Acquisition Costs
          Hotel property acquisition costs increased $0.5 million from $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. These expenses relate to the acquisition of hotels formerly owned by Innkeepers USA Trust (“Innkeepers”) described in Note 16, Subsequent Events, in the notes to our financial statements above. These acquisition-related costs are expensed when incurred in accordance with GAAP.
Interest and Other Income
          Interest income on cash and cash equivalents deceased $26,000 from $38,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $12,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease was due to the decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $83.7 million in 2011 from $98.7 million at June 30, 2010 to $15.0 million at June 30, 2011. The Company had not fully invested the cash from its IPO in the 2010 period.
Interest Expense
          Interest expense increased $1.4 million from $0.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to interest cost on two loans we assumed in the third quarter of 2010, interest on our senior secured revolving credit facility originated in the third quarter of 2010 related to weighted average borrowings of $8.6 million at 4.5%, unused commitment fees of 50 basis points on the unused portion of our credit facility and amortization of deferred financing fees of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 relating to the two loans and the credit facility.
Income Tax Expense
          Income tax expense decreased $33,000 in 2011 from $47,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $14,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. We are subject to income taxes based on the taxable income of our TRS holding companies at a tax rate of approximately 40%.
Net loss applicable to Common Shareholders
          Net loss applicable to common shareholders increased $1.4 million in 2011 from a loss of $0.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to a loss of $2.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share for the six months

ended June 30, 2011. This increase was due to the factors discussed above.
Material Trends or Uncertainties
          We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, favorable or unfavorable, that may be reasonably anticipated to have a material impact on either the capital resources or the revenues or income to be derived from the acquisition and operation of properties, loans and other permitted investments, other than those referred to in the risk factors identified in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the SEC.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
          We consider the following non-GAAP financial measures useful to investors as key supplemental measures of our operating performance: (1) FFO, (2) Adjusted FFO, (3) EBITDA, and (4) Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures could be considered along with, but not as alternatives to, net income or loss as a measure of our operating performance prescribed by GAAP.
          FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent cash generated from operating activities under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of our liquidity, nor are FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. These measurements do not reflect cash expenditures for long-term assets and other items that have been and will be incurred. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may include funds that may not be available for management’s discretionary use due to functional requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, property acquisitions, and other commitments and uncertainties.
          We calculate FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which defines FFO as net income or loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of real estate, items classified by GAAP as extraordinary, the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, plus depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We believe that the presentation of FFO provides useful information to investors regarding our operating performance because it measures our performance without regard to specified non-cash items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gain or loss on sale of real estate assets and certain other items that we believe are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel properties. We believe that these items are more representative of our asset base and our acquisition and disposition activities than our ongoing operations, and that by excluding the effects of the items, FFO is useful to investors in comparing our operating performance between periods and between REITs that report FFO using the NAREIT definition.
          We further adjust FFO for certain additional items that are not in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, including hotel property acquisition costs. We believe that Adjusted FFO provides investors with another financial measure that may facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs that make similar adjustments to FFO.
          The following is a reconciliation of net loss to FFO and Adjusted FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands, except share data):

          We calculate EBITDA as net income or loss excluding: (1) interest expense; (2) provision for income taxes, including income taxes applicable to sale of assets; and (3) depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because it helps investors compare our operating performance between periods and between REITs by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest expense) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. In addition, we use EBITDA as one measure in determining the value of hotel acquisitions and dispositions.
          We further adjust EBITDA for certain additional items, including hotel property acquisition costs and amortization of non-cash share-based compensation which we believe are not indicative of the performance of our underlying hotel properties. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with another financial measure that may facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures.

          Although we present FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe they are useful to investors in comparing our operating performance between periods and between REITs that report similar measures, these measures have limitations as analytical tools. Some of these limitations are:
    FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
 
    FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
 
    FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect funds available to make cash distributions;
 
    EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
 
    Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may need to be replaced in the future, and FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
 
    Non-cash compensation is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period using Adjusted EBITDA;
 
    Adjusted FFO and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges (including acquisition transaction costs) that result from matters we consider not to be indicative of the underlying performance of our hotel properties; and
 
    other companies in our industry may calculate FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
          In addition, FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent cash generated from operating activities as determined by GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, cash flows from operations or any other operating performance measure prescribed by GAAP. FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of our liquidity. Because of these limitations, FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally. Our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those

statements included elsewhere are prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Sources and Uses of Cash
          Our principal sources of cash include net cash from operations and proceeds from debt and equity issuances. Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, capital expenditures, operating costs, corporate expenditures, interest and debt repayments and distributions to equity holders.
          As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $15.0 and $4.7 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company had $85.0 million available under the senior secured revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2011. Subsequent to June 30, 2011, we borrowed $57 million under the credit facility to fund a portion of the purchase of the five sister hotels.
          For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net cash flows provided by operations were $3.6 million, as our net loss of $1.9 million was due in significant part to non-cash expenses, including $5.9 million of depreciation and amortization and $0.7 million of share-based compensation expense. In addition, changes in operating assets and liabilities due to the timing of cash receipts and payments from our hotels resulted in net cash outflow of $1.1 million. Net cash flows used in investing activities were $20.2 million, which represents additional capital improvements to the thirteen hotels of $7.6 million and $12.6 million of funds placed into escrows for future acquisitions and lender or manager required escrows. Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $26.8 million, comprised primarily of proceeds generated from the February common share offering, net of underwriting fees and offering costs paid or payable to third parties, of $69.4 million, offset by net repayments on our secured credit facility of $37.8 million, payment of mortgages of $0.1 million, payment of financing costs associated with our amended line of credit of $0.6 million and distributions to shareholders of $4.1 million.
          For the six months ended June 30, 2010, net cash flows provided by operations were $662,000, as our net loss of $642,000 was due in significant part to non-cash expenses, including $402,000 of depreciation and amortization and $224,000 of share-based compensation expense. In addition, changes in operating assets and liabilities due to the timing of cash receipts and payments from our hotels resulted in net cash inflow of $678,000. Net cash flows used in investing activities were $76.0 million, which represents acquisition of the six initial hotels of $73.5 million and $2.5 million of funds placed into escrows for future hotel acquisitions. Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $174.0 million, comprised primarily of proceeds generated from the initial public offering, net of underwriting fees and offering costs paid or payable to third parties, of $174.0 million.
          We have paid regular quarterly dividends and distributions on common shares and LTIP units since the third quarter of 2010. Dividends and distributions for each of the first and second quarters of 2011 were $0.175 per common share and LTIP unit. On July 15, 2011, we paid an aggregate of $2.5 million in second quarter dividends on our common shares and distributions on our LTIP units. We intend to use available cash and borrowings under our revolving secured line of credit to fund the cash requirements related to our pending hotel acquisition.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
          We intend to maintain our leverage over the long term at a ratio of net debt to investment in hotels (at cost) (defined as our initial acquisition price plus the gross amount of any subsequent capital investment and excluding any impairment charges) to less than 35 percent measured at the time we incur debt, and a subsequent decrease in hotel property values will not necessarily cause us to repay debt to comply with this limitation. Our board of trustees may modify or eliminate this policy at any time without the approval of our shareholders. In the 2011 second quarter, our Board of Trustees approved the temporary increase in our targeted leverage to not more than 55 percent, not including our share of assets and liabilities of the JV. Our Board of Trustees believes that temporarily increasing our leverage limit at this stage of the lodging cycle recovery is prudent to take advantage of the opportunity to buy hotels in the near term.
          On October 12, 2010, we entered into a $85 million senior secured revolving credit facility to fund future acquisition, redevelopment and expansion activities. At June 30, 2011, we had no outstanding borrowings under this credit facility. At June 30, 2011, there were eleven properties in the borrowing base under the credit agreement and the maximum borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $84.3 million. Subsequent to June 30, 2011, we borrowed $57 million under the credit facility to fund a portion of the purchase of the five sister hotels.
          The credit agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions customary for transactions of this type, including a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and minimum net worth financial covenants, limitations on (i) liens, (ii) incurrence of debt, (iii) investments, (iv) distributions, and (v) mergers and asset dispositions, covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws, covenants on the use of proceeds of the credit facility and default provisions, including defaults for non-payment, breach of representations and warranties,

insolvency, non-performance of covenants, cross-defaults and guarantor defaults. The two mortgage loans we assumed contain financial covenants concerning the maintenance of a minimum debt service coverage ratio. The loan encumbering the Altoona Courtyard hotel requires a minimum ratio of 1.5x and our ratio is 2.0x. The loan encumbering the Washington SpringHill Suites hotel requires a minimum ratio of 1.65x and our ratio is 2.4x. We were in compliance with these financial covenants at June 30, 2011.
          We amended our $85 million senior secured revolving credit facility effective May 2011. The amendment provides for an increase in the allowable consolidated leverage ratio to 60 percent through 2012, reducing to 55 percent in 2013; and a decrease in the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio from 2.3x to 1.7x through March 2012, increasing to 1.75x through December 2012 and 2.0x in 2013. Subject to certain conditions, the line of credit still has an accordion feature that provides the Company with the ability to increase the facility to $110 million.
          On February 8, 2011, we completed a public offering of 4.6 million common shares, raising net proceeds of $69.4 million. We used $42.8 million to pay down debt outstanding on the revolving credit facility. We used the remaining funds to fund a portion of our acquisition of the five sister hotels under Note 16, Subsequent Events, in the notes to our financial statements above.
          We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through net cash provided by operations, existing cash balances and, if necessary, short-term borrowings under our credit facility. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will be adequate to fund operating obligations, pay interest on any borrowings and fund dividends in accordance with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements, such as hotel property acquisitions and debt maturities or repayments through additional long-term secured and unsecured borrowings and the issuance of additional equity or debt securities.
          We intend to continue to invest in hotel properties only as suitable opportunities arise. In the near-term, we intend to fund future investments in properties with the net proceeds of offerings of our securities. Longer term, we intend to finance our investments with the net proceeds from additional issuances of common and preferred shares, issuances of units of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership or other securities or borrowings. The success of our acquisition strategy depends, in part, on our ability to access additional capital through issuances of equity securities and borrowings. There can be no assurance that we will continue to make investments in properties that meet our investment criteria. Additionally, we may choose to dispose of certain hotels that do not meet out long-term investment objectives as a means to provide liquidity.
Dividend Policy
          Our current policy on common dividends is generally to distribute, annually, 100% of our annual taxable income. The amount of any dividends will be determined by our Board of Trustees. On May 25, 2011, our Board of Trustees declared a dividend of $0.175 per common share and LTIP unit. The dividends to our common shareholders and the distributions to our LTIP unit holders were paid on July 15, 2011 to holders of record as of June 30, 2011.
Capital Expenditures
          We intend to maintain each hotel property in good repair and condition and in conformity with applicable laws and regulations in accordance with the franchisor’s standards and any agreed-upon requirements in our management and loan agreements. After we have acquired a hotel property, in certain instances, we may be required to complete a property improvement plan (“PIP”) in order to be granted a new franchise license for that particular hotel property. PIPs are intended to bring the hotel property up to the franchisor’s standards. Certain of our loans require that we make available for such purposes, at the hotels collateralizing these loans, amounts up to 5% of gross revenue from such hotels. We intend to cause the expenditure of amounts in excess of such obligated amounts, if necessary, to comply with any reasonable requirements and otherwise to the extent that we deem such expenditures to be in the best interests of the hotel. To the extent that we spend more on capital expenditures than is available from our operations, which is the case with respect to the PIPs we are required to complete during 2011, we intend to fund those capital expenditures with available cash and borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
          For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we invested approximately $2.4 and $7.3 million, respectively, on capital investments in our hotels. We expect to invest approximately $13 million on capital improvements in 2011 on our 13 existing hotels owned at June 30, 2011, and $1.0 million on capital improvements on the five wholly owned hotels acquired from Innkeepers.
Contractual Obligations
          The following table sets forth our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2011, and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flow in future periods (in thousands). We had no other material off-balance sheet

See Note 8, “Debt” to our consolidated financial statements for additional information relating to our property loans.
          In addition, we pay management fees to our hotel management companies based on the revenues of our hotels.
          On January 31, 2011, we entered into a contract to purchase a hotel located in the greater Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area for a total purchase price of approximately $24.9 million, which includes the assumption of approximately $7.3 million in existing mortgage debt secured by the property. The acquisition of this hotel is subject to customary closing requirements and conditions. The Company signed an agreement on June 22, 2011 to amend the closing date for the Pittsburgh hotel acquisition extending the closing date to September 30, 2011 with the ability to extend the date to October 31, 2011. The extension was required to accommodate the loan assumption process. The Company can give no assurance that the transaction will be completed within the expected time frame or at all.
          On May 3, 2011, a joint venture between Cerberus Capital Management and Chatham Lodging LP, INK Acquisition, LLC was selected as the winning bidder to purchase 64 hotels, subject to the terms and conditions of the bid, from Innkeepers USA Trust. The Company’s expected investment of $37.0 million will at closing represent less than a 10% interest in the JV and will be funded through borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
          On May 3, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase five hotels from affiliates of Innkeepers Trust USA for $195 million. The Company completed the acquisition of the five hotels on July 14, 2011. The acquisition was funded with available cash, borrowings under the revolving credit facility and assumption of existing mortgage debt on the hotels.
Inflation
          Operators of hotels, in general, possess the ability to adjust room rates daily to reflect the effects of inflation. However, competitive pressures may limit the ability of our management companies to raise room rates.
Seasonality
          Demand for our hotels is affected by recurring seasonal patterns. Generally, we expect that we will have lower revenue, operating income and cash flow in the first and fourth quarters and higher revenue, operating income and cash flow in the second and third quarters. These general trends are, however, influenced by overall economic cycles and the geographic locations of the hotels we acquire.
Critical Accounting Policies
          Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While we do not believe the reported amounts would be materially different, application of these policies involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. All of our significant accounting policies, including certain critical accounting policies, are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
          Recently Issued Accounting Standards
          In December 2010, the FASB issued updated accounting guidance to clarify that pro forma disclosures should be presented as if a business combination occurred at the beginning of the prior annual period for purposes of preparing both the current reporting period and the prior reporting period pro forma financial information. These disclosures should be

accompanied by a narrative description about the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The new accounting guidance is effective for business combinations consummated in periods beginning after December 14, 2010, and should be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. We have adopted the new disclosures as of January 1, 2011.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
          We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our assumption of long-term debt in connection with our acquisitions. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we will borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. With respect to variable rate financing, we will assess interest rate risk by identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities.
          At June 30, 2011, our consolidated debt was comprised only of fixed interest rate debt. The fair value of our fixed rate debt indicates the estimated principal amount of debt having the same debt service requirements that could have been borrowed at the date presented, at then current market interest rates. The following table provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates (in thousands):

Only with respect to the Real Property owned by KPA Mission Valley and KPA Tysons Corner, if by the Closing Date the Purchaser is unable to (1) obtain the permanent transfer of the Liquor License; or (2) obtain another arrangement pending the permanent transfer of the Liquor License to the Purchaser, then, on the Closing Date, the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into an agreement with the Purchaser, to the extent legally permissible and on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Sellers, providing for an interim arrangement (the “Interim Liquor Agreement”) of up to six (6) months whereby the Sellers shall allow the Purchaser, the Purchaser’s designee, lessee or the Purchaser’s hotel management company, as applicable, to operate all food and beverage areas within the Hotels under the existing Liquor License pending the temporary or permanent transfer of the Liquor License to the Purchaser, the Purchaser’s lessee, designee or the Purchaser’s hotel management company, as applicable. The Interim Liquor Agreement may be structured in the form of a short term lease or other agreement to consummate the intent of the parties, cancelable at any time by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold the Seller and its Affiliates harmless against any liabilities incurred in such operation (unless caused by the Seller’s willful or grossly negligent conduct or omission or material breach of the

14


 

Interim Liquor Agreement) and provide adequate insurance (including, without limitation, liquor liability insurance) naming the Sellers as an additional insured.
     4.14 Bankruptcy. Subject to the entry of the Confirmation Order and any order approving the assumption and assignment of the Assumed Contracts and Assumed Leases, the Sellers have complied with all requirements of the Bankruptcy Code and Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure in connection with obtaining approval of the sale of the Property (including the assumption and assignment to Purchaser of any Assumed Contracts and Assumed Leases) to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.
     In the event Purchaser obtains actual knowledge on or before Closing of any material inaccuracy in any of the representations and warranties contained in this Article 4, and such material inaccuracy is not promptly corrected or resolved by the Sellers following notice from Purchaser, Purchaser may at Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy either: (i) terminate this Agreement, whereupon neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than as set forth herein with respect to rights or obligations that survive termination; or (ii) waive any and all Claims against Seller on account of such inaccuracy and close the transaction.

     5.3 Litigation. To the knowledge of Purchaser, there is no action, suit or proceeding, pending or known by the Purchaser to be threatened against or affecting the Purchaser in any court or before any arbitrator or before any Governmental Body which (a) in any manner raises any question affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound and that is to be used in connection with, or is contemplated by, this Agreement, (b) could affect the ability of the

15


 

Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, or under any document to be delivered pursuant hereto, (c) could create a lien on the Property, any part thereof or any interest therein or (d) could adversely affect the Property, any part thereof or any interest therein, or the use, operation, condition or occupancy thereof.

ARTICLE 9
LIABILITY OF PURCHASER; LIABILITY OF SELLER;
TERMINATION RIGHTS
     9.1 Liability of Purchaser and Seller. Except for any obligation expressly assumed or agreed to be assumed by the Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to the Confirmation Order, the Purchaser does not assume any obligation of the Seller or any liability for Claims arising out of any occurrence prior to Closing. Except as provided in this Agreement and by Applicable Law, the Sellers shall not be responsible for any obligation of the Purchaser or any liability for Claims arising out of any occurrence on or after the Closing.
     9.2 Termination by Purchaser. Purchaser may terminate this Agreement (i) in accordance with Section 8.1 hereof, (ii) if the Closing has not occurred prior to August 5, 2011, (iii) if the Confirmation Order is not entered on or before July 31, 2011, (iv) if the Sellers do not file the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement Motion with the Bankruptcy Court by May 6, 2011, (v) if the Bankruptcy Court does not enter an order approving the Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement Motion by May 24, 2011, or (vi) if a Seller materially defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (including its obligation to sell the Property), and such Seller fails to cure any such matter within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof from the Purchaser, the Purchaser, at its option, may elect either (a) to terminate this Agreement, in which event the Deposit and the Deposit Interest shall be forthwith returned to the Purchaser and all other rights and obligations of the Seller and the Purchaser hereunder shall terminate immediately (except those which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement), or (b) to waive its right to terminate and, instead, to proceed to Closing.
     9.3 Termination by Seller. If the Purchaser materially defaults in performing any of its obligations under this Agreement (including its obligation to purchase the Property), and the Purchaser fails to cure any such default within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof from the Seller, then the Seller’s sole remedy for such default shall be to terminate this Agreement and retain the Deposit. The Seller and the Purchaser agree that, in the event of such a default, the damages that the Seller would sustain as a result thereof would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain. Therefore, the Seller and the Purchaser agree that the Seller shall retain the Deposit as full and complete liquidated damages and as the Seller’s sole remedy.
     If upon the determination of Seller’s directors, trustees, or members, as applicable, and upon advice of counsel, any term or provision of this Agreement shall prevent, amend, alter, or reduce Seller’s ability to exercise its fiduciary duties under applicable law, Seller shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, whereupon Seller shall promptly, but no later than three (3) Business Days from the date of such termination, pay to Purchaser (or its designee) the sum of (i) the Deposit, (ii) the Deposit Interest, (iii) the Break-Up Fee and (iv) the Expense Reimbursement, and neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than as set forth herein with respect to rights or obligations that survive termination.
     Seller may terminate this Agreement if the Confirmation Order is not entered on or before July 31, 2011, whereupon Seller shall promptly, but not later than three (3) Business Days from July 31, 2011, pay to Purchaser the sum of (i) the Deposit, (ii) the Deposit Interest, if any,

21


 

(iii) the July 31 Expense Reimbursement and (iv) the Break-Up Fee, and neither Party shall have any further rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement, other than as set forth herein with respect to rights or obligations that survive termination.
     9.4 Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to any of the rights of termination granted to Purchaser under subsections 9.2(ii)-(iii) or 9.2(vi), or if the Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 9.3 hereof, (each of subsections 9.2(ii)-(iii), 9.2(vi) and the second paragraph of Section 9.3 hereof, a “Specified Termination Event”), provided that a breach by Purchaser of any material term or provision of this Agreement was not the material cause of or a material contributing factor to the Specified Termination Event, the Sellers shall pay the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement to the Purchaser or its designee not later than three Business Days following any Specified Termination Event; provided, however, to the extent the Sellers shall have used commercially reasonable efforts seeking the entry of the Confirmation Order by July 31 2011, and notwithstanding such efforts, each or all of the Sellers did not cause (or directed to cause), directly or indirectly, the action or contribute, in anyway, to the reason or circumstances that resulted in the failure of the Bankruptcy Court to enter the Confirmation Order by July 31, 2011, then to the extent Purchaser chooses to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Sections 9.4 (ii)-(iii), Seller shall only pay (in accordance with this Section 9.4) to Purchaser the July 31 Expense Reimbursement.
     The Seller’s obligation to make any payment on account of the Break-Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement shall have super-priority administrative expense status, senior to all other administrative expense claims (other than Seller’s obligations pursuant to the Lehman DIP Facility and the Five Mile DIP Facility and the DIP Orders (as such terms are defined in the Plan), which obligations shall be pari passu with the Seller’s obligation to pay the Break-Up and Expense Reimbursement, under Section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, until such payment is made.

Amended and Restated
Binding Commitment Agreement
Regarding the Acquisition and Restructuring
of Certain Subsidiaries of Innkeepers USA Trust
INK Acquisition LLC (“INK_1”) and INK Acquisition II LLC (“INK II”, and together with INK 1, individually or collectively, as the context may require, “New HoldCo”), Cerberus Series Four Holdings, LLC (“Cerberus”) and Chatham Lodging Trust (“Chatham”, and together with Cerberus, the “Plan Sponsors”), are pleased to present this amended and restated letter (the “Amended and Restated Commitment Letter”) to certain wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of Innkeepers USA Trust (together with all of its wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, “Innkeepers” or the “Company”), that are identified on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively, the “Fixed/Floating Debtors”), which sets forth, among other things, the Plan Sponsors’ binding and irrevocable commitment to provide equity capital (the “Commitment”) for the restructuring of the debt and equity of the Fixed/Floating Debtors (the “Transaction”), resulting in New HoldCo directly or indirectly owning all of the equity interests in the Fixed/Floating Debtors on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the amended and restated term sheet (the “Amended and Restated Term Sheet”) attached hereto as Exhibit B. This Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, together with the Amended and Restated Term Sheet, the other Exhibits hereto and the other documents submitted herewith, constitute our Investment Documents and Bid (each as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order;1 the “Bid”). The undersigned hereto are collectively referred to as “Parties” and each a “Party.”
We believe that the Commitment provides substantial value to the Fixed/Floating Debtors and puts the Company on the path towards a consensual emergence from chapter 11 on an enterprise basis pursuant to a confirmed chapter 11 plan. There are no due diligence or financing contingencies of any kind in connection with the Commitment, other than the availability of the Midland Financing (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order).
The Sponsors
The Plan Sponsors are each uniquely qualified to consummate the Transaction. Established in 1992, Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. is one of the world’s leading private investment firms with approximately $23 billion under management in funds and accounts. Cerberus’ investors include
 
1   All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Debtors’ Plans of Reorganization Pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, dated May 12, 2011,(the “Fixed/Floating Plan”).

 


 

prominent state and local pension funds, charitable foundations, university endowments and insurance companies, as well as family savings. Cerberus is headquartered in New York City, with affiliate and/or advisory offices in the U.S., Europe and Asia. Cerberus’ dedicated team of investment and operations professionals is active in private equity, distressed investments (corporate debt, mortgage, NPLs, structured products) lending/loans and real estate. On the lodging side, Cerberus, through an affiliate, currently owns 5,160 keys including the Sheraton Waikiki (Waikiki, HI), Moana Surfrider (Waikiki, HI), Royal Hawaiian (Waikiki, HI), Princess Kaiulani (Waikiki, HI), Sheraton Maui (Maui, HI) and the Palace Hotel (San Francisco, CA). Additionally, Cerberus is in contract to acquire Silverleaf Resorts, a time-share vacation company.
Chatham is a self-advised real estate investment trust that invests in upscale extended-stay hotels and premium-branded select-service hotels. Chatham currently owns 13 hotels with an aggregate of 1,650 rooms/suites in nine states and has one additional hotel under contract to purchase in Pittsburgh, PA. Island Hospitality Management, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “IHM”) are engaged in the management of hotels throughout the United States and is experienced in the various phases of hotel operations. IHM currently provides comprehensive hotel management services to all but one of the hotels owned by the Fixed/Floating Debtors. Chatham currently has the capacity to invest over $300 million in new hotel assets. Additional information about Chatham may be found at www.chathamlodgingtrust.com.
The specific elements of our Commitment are set forth in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet and the other Investment Documents. This Amended and Restated Commitment Letter is not an offer or a solicitation with respect to any securities of Innkeepers or a solicitation of acceptances of a chapter 11 plan.
          1. Conditions. The Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions contained in the Amended and Restated Term Sheet and the Fixed/Floating Plan.
          2. Confidentiality. The Investment Documents are being delivered to you on the understanding that neither the Investment Documents, nor any of the terms or substance thereof, shall be disclosed, directly or indirectly, to any other person except (i) to your officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants and financial, legal and other advisors on a confidential and need-to-know basis; (ii) as required by applicable law, including the Bankruptcy Code or compulsory legal process (in which case you agree to inform us promptly thereof); (iii) in connection with any exercise of remedies under or in connection with a breach of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter; (iv) to Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, National Association, or any successor thereto, solely in its capacity as special servicer for the C6 and C7 Trusts that own and hold the Fixed Rate Pool Mortgage Loan Agreement Claims (“Midland”) and its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants and financial, legal and other advisors on a confidential and need-to-know basis, and Lehman ALI, Inc. (“Lehman”), or (v) as otherwise agreed by the Parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investment Documents may be (a) disclosed to other parties in interest in the Chapter 11 Cases in connection with the Fixed/Floating Auction (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order), and (b) filed with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with approval of the Disclosure Statement and the Fixed/Floating Plan as a result of New HoldCo being declared the Successful Bidder at the Fixed/Floating Auction.
          3. Due Diligence/Financing. We have completed our diligence review, and intend to utilize the Midland Financing. The form of the Binding Commitment Regarding the Acquisition and Restructuring of Certain Subsidiaries of Innkeepers USA Trust addressed to Midland, that we are prepared to execute (the “New HoldCo/Midland Commitment”) is attached

- 2 -


 

hereto as Exhibit C. As a result, the Commitment is not subject to diligence contingencies or financing contingencies of any kind, other than the availability of the Midland Financing.
          4. Commitment; Financial Capability. The Plan Sponsors hereby commit to provide the entire amount of the Commitment upon the Effective Date of the Fixed/Floating Plan, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet and the Fixed/Floating Plan. 100% of the equity of New HoldCo is owned by Cerberus (through CRE-Ink REIT Member, LLC and CRE-INK Member II, Inc., the “Cerberus Members”) and Chatham (through Chatham Lodging, LP and Chatham TRS Holding, Inc., the “Chatham Members”), with the Cerberus Members initially owning 90.8% of such equity and the Chatham Members owning the remaining 9.2% of such equity. The current limited liability company agreement of Ink I, executed by the applicable Cerberus Member and the applicable Chatham Member, as amended, is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The aggregate commitment of Cerberus is $363,527,644.35, and the aggregate commitment of Chatham is $37,000,000.00. As discussed above, Cerberus has approximately $23 billion under management and Chatham currently has the capacity to invest over $300 million in new hotel assets, which we believe is sufficient evidence of our financial capability to close the transaction.
          5. Means of Implementation. As the Successful Bidder (as defined in the Bidding Procedures Order), the funding from our Commitment will be used to finance and otherwise implement the restructuring of the Fixed/Floating Debtors pursuant to the Fixed/Floating Plan (as amended to reflect the transactions contemplated by this Bid).
     The Fixed/Floating Plan (i) shall be acceptable in all respects to the Plan Sponsors and Midland in each of their respective reasonable discretion; (ii) will provide for the treatment of claims against and interests in the Fixed/Floating Debtors and in all other respects be in accordance with the Amended and Restated Term Sheet; and (iii) will otherwise comply with applicable disclosure requirements and rules of procedure and contain terms and treatment of claims and interests consistent with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. For the avoidance of doubt, the Anaheim Plan, the Ontario Plan and the Reorganizing Debtor Plan are not subject to this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet or the other Investment Documents.
          6. Deposit. In accordance with the Bidding Procedures Order, the Plan Sponsors have deposited cash in an amount equal to $20 million (the “Deposit”) to:

          10. Governing Law. This Amended and Restated Commitment Letter shall be governed by, and interpreted and enforced in accordance with, the laws in force in the state of New York.

Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet, the other Investment Documents, the Fixed/Floating Rate Auction or the Bidding Procedures Order is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues, and therefore each such party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right such party may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to (a) this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet, or the other Investment Documents, (b) the breach, termination or validity of this Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, the Amended and Restated Term Sheet, the other Investment Documents, (c) the Fixed/Floating Rate Auction, or (d) the construction and enforcement of the Bidding Procedures Order, including the qualification of bids thereunder.
          12. Assignments; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (i) shall not be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of each other party hereto (and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void ab initio); provided, however, that New HoldCo may, without the consent of any other party hereto, assign its rights and obligations hereunder and under the New HoldCo/Midland Commitment to acquire the equity interests of any or all of the Fixed/Floating Debtors to any entity with the same ownership as New HoldCo, and provided, further, that such assignment shall not be in derogation of the Midland loan documents; (ii) is intended to be solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto; and (iii) is

- 4 -


 

not intended nor shall be construed to confer any benefits upon, or create any rights in favor of any person or entity other than the Parties hereto.

EXHIBIT B
Amended and Restated Term Sheet
[See Attached]

 


 

AMENDED AND RESTATED
TERM SHEET
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED TERM SHEET IS NOT AN OFFER OR A SOLICITATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY SECURITIES OF INNKEEPERS OR A SOLICITATION OF ACCEPTANCES OF A CHAPTER 11 PLAN.
     
Plan of Reorganization:
  The recapitalization and debt restructuring (the “Transaction”) of the Fixed/Floating Debtors is to be effectuated through the Fixed/Floating Plan filed in the Bankruptcy Court with the support of the Plan Sponsors and Midland.
 
   
 
  The Fixed/Floating Plan shall be acceptable in all respects to the Company, Plan Sponsors and Midland 111 each of their respective reasonable discretion. The Debtors shall not amend, withdraw, or revoke the Fixed/Floating Plan or waive or amend any provision thereof without the consent of the Plan Sponsors and Midland, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Any plane(s) filed by the Company with respect to the Excluded Debtors (as defined below) shall be acceptable in all respects to the Company in its reasonable sole discretion.
 
   
Treatment of Debt:
  Consummation of the Transaction is subject to the restructuring of the Fixed/Floating Debtors’ debt in amounts and with the treatment terms provided herein, or with such other terms that are (i) acceptable to the Debtors, and (ii) acceptable to the Plan Sponsors and Midland (a) in each of the Debtors’, Plan Sponsors’, and Midland’s respective sole discretion with respect to the economic and treatment terms set forth herein and (b) otherwise in each of the Debtors’, Plan Sponsors’, and Midland’s respective reasonable discretion.
 
   
New Equity:
  Holders of common, preferred, and any other equity interests in the Fixed/Floating Debtors shall receive no distributions under the Fixed/Floating Plan on account of such interests. INK Acquisition LLC and INK Acquisition II LLC, entities that are newly formed by the Plan Sponsors ( collectively “New HoldCo”), will acquire the indirect and direct equity of reorganized Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Fixed, LLC, reorganized Grand Prix Mezz Borrower Floating, LLC, reorganized Grand Prix Fixed Lessee, LLC, and Grand Prix Floating Lessee, LLC (and their respective subsidiaries), and such other assets as may be subsequently identified as necessary to the operation of the Fixed/Floating Debtors, provided, however, that no assets of the Anaheim Hotel Debtors, the Ontario Hotel Debtors or the Reorganizing Debtors (collectively, the “Excluded Debtors”), including, without limitation, cash or cash equivalents, shall be included in the Transaction, except to the extent provided in the Transition Services Agreement.

 


 

     
 
  The ultimate corporate structure for the reorganized Fixed/Floating Debtors shall be determined by the Plan Sponsors, in their sole discretion, and will be described in a plan supplement document to be filed before the scheduled date of confirmation of the Fixed/Floating Plan.
 
   
Equity Purchase Price /Treatment of Floating Rate Mortgage Loan:
  The Plan Sponsors shall contribute to New HoldCo, as an equity investment, $400,527,644.35 in cash to be used by New HoldCo to, among other things, satisfy its obligations under the Amended and Restated Commitment Letter, this Amended and Restated Term Sheet and the Fixed/Floating Plan.
 
   
 
  In full and final satisfaction of the Floating Rate Pool Mortgage Loan Claims outstanding against the Fixed/Floating Debtors, on the Effective Date New HoldCo shall pay to Lehman, in cash, $233,489,097.04, subject to increase or decrease based on accrued default interest and unpaid fees and expenses due in accordance with the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement through the Effective Date of the Fixed/Floating Plan. Such increase or decrease in cash payable in respect of the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan will create a reciprocal increase or decrease in the recovery of the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan holders such that the aggregate cash paid in respect of the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan and the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan will not change.
 
Treatment of Claims Fixed Mortgage Loan:
  In full and final satisfaction of the Fixed claims Pool Mortgage Loan Rate against the Fixed/Floating Debtors outstanding under the Fixed Rate Mortgage Pool Loan Agreement, on the Effective Date the holder of the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan Claims shall receive the following treatment:
 
   
 
 
     A new non-recourse mortgage loan of $723,797,238.03, which shall have the following terms: (i) no change to the interest rate of 6.71%; (ii) no change to the maturity date of July 9,2017; (iii) during the first 48 months after the Effective Date, interest only will be payable monthly and amortization will begin 48 months after the Effective Date and will be based on a 30-year amortization schedule; (iv) prepayment shall be permitted at par without penalty and defeasance requirements will be waived; and (v) property release provision whereby the properties serving as collateral under the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan may be released at 108% of the new allocated loan amount, so long as the debt service coverage ratio thereunder, after giving effect to such release, is no worse than such ratio prior to such release or if the foregoing is not consistent with the then-applicable REMIC rules and regulations, such other provision that is acceptable to the Plan Sponsors and Midland that is consistent with then applicable REMIC rules and regulations, the grantor trust rules and regulations, and the pooling and servicing agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any property release

- 2 -


 

     
 
 
contemplated herein can only be effected in accordance with applicable REMIC rules and regulations, the grantor trust rules and regulations, and the pooling and servicing agreement. The applicable loan and credit documents evidencing and securing the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan shall be assumed, amended, restated, and/or supplemented as Midland shall reasonably require as reasonably acceptable to New HoldCo and the Plan Sponsors and as is consistent with this Term Sheet.
 
   
 
 
     $12,802,450.37 of cash.
 
   
 
 
     Contemporaneously with the occurrence of the Effective Date, and as a condition thereto, the Plan Sponsors will direct New HoldCo to make a cash payment of $2,500,000 to Midland as consideration for effecting the restructuring of the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan on behalf of the C6 and C7 Trusts contemplated herein. In addition, Midland shall continue to be entitled to collect any and all monthly or periodic fees and other compensation payable to it under the pooling and servicing agreement, including, without limitation, any monthly or periodic workout fee payable in connection with the restructuring of the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan contemplated herein and same becoming a “corrected mortgage loan” except for the portion of such workout fee that would be payable in connection with the final principal payment of the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan at the maturity date or upon the earlier prepayment of same. For purposes of clarification, the preceding sentence does not create any additional obligation or otherwise modify the obligations, if any, of the Fixed/Floating Debtors or New HoldCo to pay any of such fees or other compensation or any other amounts under the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan documents, including an appropriate review fee.
 
   
 
 
     The lender under the Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan will receive limited guaranties from each of New HoldCo and Cerberus on terms acceptable to New HoldCo, Cerberus and Midland (and substantially similar to those set forth in the Five Mile/Midland Commitment and with appropriate modifications to reflect the corporate structure of New HoldCo).
 
 
 
     Payment of $3,000,000 and the Global Release (as defined below) as set forth in the “Releases” section herein.
 
   
Treatment of Floating Rate Mezzanine Debt and Unsecured Debt:
  SASCO 2008-C2, LLC, as 100% participant and owner of all economic and beneficial interests in the mezzanine loan relating to the assets in the floating rate pool, serviced by TriMont Real Estate Advisors, Inc. as special servicer, shall receive $2,363,001.42 in cash, subject to increase or decrease based on accrued default interest and unpaid fees and expenses

- 3 -


 

     
 
  due in accordance with the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan Agreement through the Effective Date of the Fixed/Floating Plan. Such increase or decrease in cash payable in respect of the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan will create a reciprocal increase or decrease in the recovery of Lehman as lender under the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan such that the aggregate cash paid in respect of the Floating Rate Mortgage Loan and the Floating Rate Mezzanine Loan will not change; and
 
   
 
  Cash (of which Apollo Investment Corporation will fund $375,000, subject to receipt of each of the releases described below) in the amount of $4,750,000 shall be available for distribution to the holders of general unsecured claims against the Fixed/Floating Debtors (excluding any deficiency claims) that are not otherwise paid pursuant to a “first day” order (the “Unsecured Claims Fund”); further, the Fixed/Floating Debtors shall release and waive all preferences under section 547 of the Bankruptcy Code and, to the extent related thereto, section 550 of the Bankruptcy Code.
 
   
Transition
Services
Agreement:
