COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On January 12, 2006, Arlington Hospitality, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the "Debtors") completed the sale of substantially all of their assets to Sunburst Hotel Holdings, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Sunburst") and SJB Equities, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, "SJB"), each of which are unaffiliated with one another and with Arlington Hospitality Inc., pursuant to separate asset purchase agreements. Pursuant to the respective purchase agreements, (1) Sunburst purchased substantially all of the assets of Debtors and assumed certain agreements including the development agreement, royalty sharing agreement, and individual hotel franchise agreements between Arlington Hospitality, Inc. and affiliates of Cendant (the "Cendant Agreements") but excluding two wholly owned hotels, those assets being purchased by, and contracts being assumed by, SJB and Arlington Hospitality Inc.'s corporate headquarters office building; and (2) SJB purchased Debtors' ownership interests in four hotel joint ventures, and assumed certain contracts and agreements, including the construction contracts for an AmeriHost Inn hotel being built in Columbus, Ohio. The total consideration for the sale of the assets, and the assumption of the agreements pursuant to the purchase agreements, was approximately $28.1 million, comprised of $9.5 million in cash and the assumption of mortgage debt of approximately $18.6 million on the purchased hotel assets. In addition, Cendant Corporation (NYSE: CD) consented to Arlington Hospitality, Inc.'s assignment of, and Sunburst's assumption of, the Cendant Agreements. Sunburst declined to purchase the two hotel assets as permitted under the purchase agreement, and as a result, both hotels where immediately turned over by the company to the mortgage lender, PMC Commercial Trust ("PMC").

There is no material relationship between Arlington Hospitality, Inc. or any of its affiliates or any officer or director of Arlington Hospitality, Inc., on the one hand, and Sunburst or SJB, on the other hand.
