Organization

FelCor Lodging Trust Incorporated (NYSE:FCH), or FelCor, is a Maryland corporation operating as a real estate investment trust, or REIT. We are the sole general partner of, and the owner of a greater than 99.5% partnership interest in, FelCor Lodging Limited Partnership, or FelCor LP, through which we held ownership interests in 48 hotels as of December 31, 2014, two of which were held for sale. At December 31, 2014, we had an aggregate of 125,216,536 shares and units outstanding, consisting of 124,605,074 shares of FelCor common stock and 611,462 units of FelCor LP units not owned by FelCor.

Of the 46 hotels not held for sale as of December 31, 2014, we owned a 100% interest in 43 hotels and 50% interests in entities owning three hotels. We consolidate our real estate interests in the 43 hotels in which we held majority interests, and we record the real estate interests of the three hotels in which we held 50% interests using the equity method. We lease 45 of our 46 hotels to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, of which we own a controlling interest. We operate one 50% owned hotel without a lease. Because we own controlling interests in these lessees, we consolidate our interests in these 45 hotels (which we refer to as our Consolidated Hotels) and reflect those hotels’ operating revenues and expenses in our statements of operations. Of our Consolidated Hotels, we own 50% of the real estate interests in each of two hotels (we account for the ownership in our real estate interests of these hotels by the equity method) and majority real estate interests in the remaining 43 hotels (we consolidate our real estate interest in these hotels).

The following table illustrates the distribution of our 45 Consolidated Hotels at December 31, 2014:

Wyndham and Wyndham Grand	8	2,528

1.	Organization – (continued)

In addition to the above hotels, we own a 95% interest in a consolidated joint venture that owns the Knickerbocker Hotel, a former hotel and office building that is being redeveloped as a 4+ star hotel in midtown Manhattan. The Knickerbocker opened in February 2015.

Effective January 1, 2013, we accounted for our hotels managed by Marriott on a 12-month calendar year basis as compared to a fiscal year comprised of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Friday closest to December 31, as reported in 2012 and prior years. Our 12-month periods ending December 31, 2014 and 2013 are reported on a calendar year basis for our Marriott-managed hotels, which is consistent with the reporting periods for our other managed hotels. However, our 12-month period ended December 31, 2012 includes the results of operations for the Marriott-managed hotels for the 52-week period ending on December 28, 2012. Results for the year ended December 31, 2012 have not been restated to reflect the reporting period transition as we do not believe the change in periods would result in a material difference for comparison of results year over year.
