The information set forth in Items 4 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons believe that the Issuer has an attractive portfolio of hotel assets and that its Common Stock is undervalued in the stock market and represents an attractive investment opportunity. ASIL and Mr. Said previously filed a Schedule 13G to report beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock that were acquired for that reason, and the Reporting Persons are now filing this Schedule 13D in connection with discussions that management of the Issuer has proposed with the Reporting Persons, in anticipation of the annual meeting of stockholders currently scheduled to be held on July 30, 2024, regarding possible ways to enhance shareholder value.

The Reporting Persons may seek to continue to engage in constructive discussions regarding the foregoing and/or alternative strategies and opportunities for the Issuer to enhance shareholder value, and may consider and develop plans and make proposals with respect to the assets, operations, governance, organizational documents, capital or corporate structure, dividend policy and/or strategic plans of the Issuer. In addition, the Reporting Persons intend to review the investment in the Issuer disclosed on this Schedule 13D regularly and to continue to evaluate the Issuer’s business, performance and prospects, and depending on these factors, overall market conditions and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may increase or decrease the position in the Issuer disclosed on this Schedule 13D. In connection with the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may consider and develop plans and make proposals in which the Reporting Persons seek to engage or participate, seek representation on the Issuer’s Board of Directors and/or request a waiver from the Issuer of the ownership limitations in the Issuer’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement. In addition, in connection with the foregoing, the Reporting Persons may from time to time in the future express their views to, meet with and/or engage in discussions with management, the Issuer’s Board of Directors, other shareholders or third parties, and/or formulate plans or proposals regarding the Issuer, its assets or its securities, which may include one or more plans or proposals that relate to or would result in the actions set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The information set forth in Items 3 and 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference.
